Nightwish - Sleeping Sun

Από το Oceanborn [1998 - bonus track]
//////////////////////////////
The sun is sleeping quietly
Once upon a century
Wistful oceans calm and red
Ardent caresses laid to rest

For my dreams I hold my life
For wishes I behold my night
The truth at the end of time
Losing faith makes a crime

I wish for this night-time
to last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping
With you

Sorrow has a human heart
From my god it will depart
I'd sail before a thousand moons
Never finding where to go

Two hundred twenty-two days of light
Will be desired by a night
A moment for the poet's play
Until there's nothing left to say

I wish for this night-time
to last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping
With you

I wish for this night-time
to last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping
With you

Οι Nightwish διαψεύδουν συναυλία τους στην Ελλάδα

Σύμφωνα με την επίσημη ιστοσελίδα τους οι Nightwish διαψεύδουν ότι η παγκόσμια περιοδεία τους θα ξεκινήσει από το Λυκαβηττό στις 23 Ιουνίου. Καλούν παράλληλα τον κόσμο να μην αγοράσει εισητήρια.

Nightwish - Nemo

Από το Once [2004] που ήταν το τελευταίο studio LP των Nightwish

This is me for forever
One of the lost ones
The one without a name
Without an honest heart as compass

This is me for forever
One without a name
These lines the last endeavor
To find the missing lifeline

Oh how I wish
For soothing rain
All I wish is to dream again
My loving heart
Lost in the dark
For hope I'd give my everything

My flower
Withered between
The pages two and three
The once and forever bloom gone with my sins

Walk the dark path
Sleep with angels
Call the past for help
Touch me with your love
And reveal to me my true name

Oh how I wish
For soothing rain
All I wish is to dream again
My loving heart
Lost in the dark
For hope I'd give my everything

Oh how I wish
For soothing rain
Oh how I wish to dream again
Once and for all
And all for once
Nemo my name for evermore

Nemo sailing home
Nemo letting go

Oh how I wish
For soothing rain
All I wish is to dream again
My loving heart
Lost in the dark
For hope I'd give my everything

Oh how I wish
For soothing rain
Oh how I wish to dream again
Once and for all
And all for once
Nemo my name for evermore

Kristin Hersh - Your Ghost / In Shock

Kristin Hersh - Your Ghost (ft. Michael Stipe )

Από το 1ο album της Kristin Hersh , "Hips and Makers".
]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]

If I walk down this hallway, tonight,
It’s too quiet,
So I Pad through the dark
and call you on the phone
Push your old numbers
and let your house ring
til I wake you ghost.
Let him walk down your hallway
it’s not this quiet
slide down your receiver
sprint across the wire
follow my number
slide into my hand.

It’s the blaze across my nightgown
it’s the phone’s ring.

I think last night
you were driving circles around me.

I can’t drink this coffee
til I put you in my closet
let him shoot me down
let him call me off
I take it from his whisper
you’re not that tough.

Coldplay - Trouble

Trouble από Coldplay (Parachutes - 2000)

TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
O no, I see,
I spun a web, it's tangled up with me,
And I lost my head,
The thought of all the stupid things I said,
O no what's this?
A spider web, and I'm caught in the middle,
I turned to run,
The thought of all the stupid things I've done,

I never meant to cause you trouble,
And I never meant to do you wrong,
And I, well if I ever caused you trouble,
O no, I never meant to do you harm.

O no I see,
A spider web and it's me in the middle,
So I twist and turn,
Here I am in love in a bubble,

Singing, I never meant to cause you trouble,
I never meant to do you wrong,
And I, well if I ever caused you trouble,
Although I never meant to do you harm.

They spun a web for me,
They spun a web for me,
They spun a web for me.

Trouble - The Skull

Οι Trouble είναι ένα από τα πιο σημαντικά συγκροτήματα του Doom Metal. Με βασική τους επιρροή τους τους Black Sabbath έχουν δώσει το δικό τους στίγμα τόσο μουσικά όσο και (κυρίως) στιχουργικά. Το "The Skull" προέρχεται από τον ομώνυμο δίσκο τους του 1985.
====================
This is my body
my sacrifice to you
this is my blood
which shall be shed for your sins
i have come to be the light of the world
not to judge but to save all of you
As darkness sets,
the agony begins
one of you will betray me with a kiss of death
pray that you may not enter into temptation
God gives me strength, I`m going to be crucified
A crown of thorns
and disgraced by scourge
I took up my cross
had to carry it to the skull
do not weep for me, but for you
and your children
Father forgive them for they know not what they do.
Why did we turn our backs on him
how could we let it happen
just stood and stared at the man on the cross
the time will come when we must face life alone.
You got to make up your mind
for what you know is right
let`s not be another face in the crowd
we can do it together
Let us pray
for those who crucify - Christ have mercy
for fools who follow fools - Christ have mercy
for those who walk in darkness - Christ have mercy
and for all of you - Christ will come again.

The Gathering - My Electricity

Υπάρχει στο How to Measure a Planet? (1999) και στο Sleepy Buildings (2004)

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
I send your name
up into the sky
And the wind blows it back into my face

You see, even nature
reacts on me
And all my electricity
will make it across your sea

With every wave the sea makes
My body gets weaker
and weaker.... and weaker..

You see, even nature
reacts on me
And all my electricity
will make it across your sea

And provides you
with my love

Οι Nine Inch Nails τα βάζουν με τη Universal

Ο Trent Reznor των Nine Inch Nails είναι πολύ εκνευρισμένος με τον τρόπο που η Universal αντιμετωπίζει τους οπαδούς τους. Η εταιρία "τιμωρεί"την αγάπη των οπαδών αυξάνοντας τις τιμές, αφού θεωρεί πως αυτοί θα πληρώσουν σε οποιοδήποτε τιμή, ενώ μπορεί να κάνει εκπτώσεις σε πιο pop υλικό.

It's a Beautiful Day - Girl With No Eyes

Από το ομώνυμο LP των It's a Beautiful Day . Το It's a Beautiful Day κυκλοφόρησε το 1969.
***************************************
There's a girl in my room and her face on the wall with no eyes.
There's a girl in my room and her face on the wall with no eyes.
Girl with no eyes,
who can she be?
Girl with no eyes,
she's looking at me.

There's a girl in my room and her face on the wall with no eyes.
If I make a sound she'll know that I'm stirring inside.
If I make a sound she'll know that I'm trying to hide.

Girl with no eyes,
who can she be?
Girl with no eyes,
she's looking at me.
Beautiful girl,
who does she see?
Beautiful girl,
she seems to be staring.

Doesn't eveybody know, everybody know,
love takes a lifetime.
And doesn't everbody know, everbody know,
love is the eye sight,
it's the eye sight of a lifetime.

She's just a reflection of all of the time that's gone by.
She's just a reflection of all of the time I've been high.

Girl with no eyes,
who can she be?
Girl with no eyes,
she's looking at me.
Beautiful girl,
who does she see?
Beautiful girl,
she seems to be staring.

Doesn't eveybody know, everybody know,
love takes a lifetime.
And doesn't everbody know, everbody know,
love is the eye sight,
it's the eye sight of a lifetime.
