Seether - Fake It

Finding Beauty In Negative Spaces ονομάζεται το νέο cd των Seether απ' όπου και το single "Fake It".

Whose to know if your soul will fade at all
The one you sold to fool the world
You lose your self-esteem along the way
Good god, you're coming up with reasons
Good god, you're dragging it out
Good god, it's the changing of the seasons
It feels so great, so follow me down

Fake it if your out of direction
Fake it if you don't belong
Fake it if you feel like infection
Whoa, your such a fucking hypocrite

You should know that the lies won't hide your flaws
No sense in hiding all of yours
You gave up on your dreams along the way
Good god, you're coming up with reasons
Good god, you're dragging it out
Good god, it's the changing of the seasons
It feels so great, so follow me down and just...

Fake it if your out of direction
Fake it if you don't belong
Fake it if you feel like infection
Whoa, your such a fucking hypocrite

I can fake with the best of anyone
I can fake with the best of them all
I can fake it with the best of anyone
I can fake it all

Whose to know if your soul will fade at all
The one you sold to fool the world
You lose your self-esteem along the way
Good god, you're coming up with reasons
Good god, you're dragging it out
Good god, it's the changing of the seasons
It feels so great, so follow me down and just...

Fake it if your out of direction
Fake it if you don't belong
Fake it if you feel like infection
Whoa, your such a fucking hypocrite

==========

Wakin' up on monday morning
Sunday'd been and gone
Reachin' out for you
But I was alone
Now I sit at the breakfast table
Table's set for two
Been the same thing ev'ry mornin'
Silly things I do
Ooh, don't know what to do about you
I'll never give the way you gave
Ooh, now should I try to find you
Keep playin' ev'ry song you played me
Feel like breakin' up again
It's a thing I gotta live with
Take it on my own
I'm waitin' till it's over
Then again I never know
If I'd only seen you goin'
Walkin' out the door
But I had no way of knowin'
Can't take it no more
Ooh, don't know what to do about you
I'll never give the way you gave
Ooh, now should I try to find you
Keep playin' ev'ry song you played me
Feel like breakin' up again

Foo Fighters - The Pretender

Πολύ μεγάλη επιτυχία και όχι άδικα κάνουν οι Foo Fighters με το Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace. Το cd με την πρώτη εβδομάδα κυκλοφορίας του έφτασε στο Νο1 του βρεττανικού πίνακα επιτυχιών. Το The Pretender είναι το 1ο single του cd.
*********
Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend
Keep you in the dark
And so it all began

Send in your skeletons
Sing as their bones go marching in...again
The need you buried deep
The secrets that you keep are at the ready
Are you ready?
I'm finished making sense
Done pleading ignorance
That whole...defense

Spinning infinity, boy
The wheel is spinning me
It's never-ending, never-ending
Same old story

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say that I'll never surrender?

In time our soul untold
I'm just another soul for sale... oh, well
The page is out of print
We are not permanent
We're temporary, temporary
Same old story

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say that I'll never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

U.D.O - Tears of a Clown

Από το καινούριο LP του U.D.O. Mastercutor

+++++U.D.O.+++++

All his life he did his best for all
And the crown of laughter hanging low
The spotlight in the ring
The choruses that sing
The paint and masquerade was just a show

The clown -- the clown
Happiness around
Just a soul lonely in the crowd
The clown -- the clown
His heart is all alone
No one wants the tears of a clown

The living of the glory and applause
The circus tent, the only home he knows
The cover-up is bold,
The mask becoming cold
It's easier to let the eyelids close

The final curtain falls for all to see
The final score, the circus melody
His star that shone so bright,
Gave comfort in the night
The light that always held him set him free

BB King (with John Mayer) - Hummingbird

BB King - Humming...

Άκουσα μετά από πάρα πολύ καιρό μια άλλη υπέροχη εκτέλεση του Hummingbird, που μπορείτε να βρείτε εδώ, με την ασύγκριτη φωνή του Chris Farlowe που υπήρχε στο album του Jimmy Page, Outrider (1988).

ΗΗΗΗΗΗΗΗΗΗΗΗΗ

Sometimes I get impatient
but she cools me without words
and she comes so sweet and so plain
my hummingbird and have you heard
that I thought my life had ended
but I find that it´s just begun
cause she gets me where I live
I´ll give all I have to give
I´m talking about that hummingbird
oh she´s little and she loves me
too much for words to say
when I see her in the morning sleeping
she´s little and she loves me
to my lucky day
hummingbird don´t fly away
When I´m felling wild and lonesome
she knows the words to say
and she gives me a little understanding
in her special way
and I just have to say
in my life I loved a woman
because she´s more than I deserve
and she gets me where I live
I´ll give all I have to give
I´m talking about that hummingbird
oh she´s little and she loves me
too much for words to say
when I see her in the morning sleeping
she´s little and she loves me
to my lucky day
hummingbird don´t fly away

Eva Cassidy - Fields Of Gold

11 χρόνια συμπληρώνονται σήμερα από την αναχώρηση της Eva Cassidy για Χρυσές Πεδιάδες, στις 2 Νοεμβρίου 1996 σε ηλικία μόλις 33 ετών. Στη διασκευή του Fields Of Gold μας έδωσε ένα υπέροχο δείγμα του σπουδαίου ταλέντου της.

-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Among the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold

So she took her love for to gaze awhile
Among the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold

Will you stay with me will you be my love
Among the fields of barley
And you can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold

I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We will walk in fields of gold
We'll walk in fields of gold

I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We will walk in fields of gold
We'll walk in fields of gold

Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
As you lie in fields of gold

You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Among the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold

Sinead O'Connor - Watcher Of Men (Job)

Έντονο το θρησκευτικό στοιχείο (όπως άλλωστε προδίδει και το όνομά του) στο νέο cd της Sinead O'Connor, Theology

((((((((So'C)))))))

Why did I not die at birth?
Expire as I came from the womb?
Why were there knees to receive me?
Or breasts to feed me?
Why was I not like babies
Who never saw the light?
Who lie with kings and counsellors
Who rebuild ruins for themselves

And where rest
Those whose strength is spent
where small and great are alike
and the slave is free of his master

Oh watcher of men
Do you have eyes of flesh?
Is your vision like man?
Are your years the years of man?
U know that I'm not guilty
And that none can deliver from your hand.

Also u know that u have deeply wronged me oh
And u have fenced me in
You made it so nobody knows me
And I'm an outsider to them

When I accused you, you wouldn't speak
I said you tore up my hope like a tree
But I spoke without understanding
Of things beyond me which I did not know
And now I've heard you with my ears
And I've seen you with my eyes
Therefore I recant and relent
Being but dust and ashes

Tori Amos - Wednesday

Μικρά τα περιθώρια επιλογής, όμως αυτό είναι από τα πιο καλά τραγούδια από όσα αναφέρονται στην Τετάρτη. Από το Scarlet's Walk" που κυκλοφόρησε τέτοια εποχή πριν 5 χρόνια (Οκτώβριος 2002)

H===TA===H
nothing here to fear
i'm just sitting around being foolish
when there is work to be done
just a hang-up call
and the quiet breathing
of our persian
we call cajun on a wednesday

so we go from year to year
with secrets we've been keeping
though you say you're not a templar man

seems as if we're circling
for very different reasons
but one day the eagle has to land

out past the fountain a left by the station i start the day
in the usual way
then think -- well why not --
and stop for a coffee
then begin to recall things that
you say
no one's at the door
you suggest a ghost
perhaps a phantom
i agree with this in part
something is with us
i can't put my finger on
-- is thumbalina size 10 on a wednesday --
so we go you tell me
to cheer up
you suspect we're oddly even
even still
the eagle has to land
out past the fountain
pluck up the courage
and snap it's gone again
i start humming "when doves cry"
can someone help me
i think that i'm lost here
lost in a place called america

Eagles - How Long

Μόλις 28 χρόνια μετά το προηγούμενο studio album τους οι Eagles επιστρέφουν, σε πολύ καλή όπως φαίνεται διάθεση, με την κυκλοφορία σήμερα 30 Οκτωβρίου του Long Road Out of Eden.
1ο single το "How Long" που κυκλοφόρησε στις 20 Αυγούστου.

~~~~~~~~~~EAGLES~~~~~~~~~~

Like a bluebird with his heart removed
Lonely as a train
I've run just as far as I can run
If I never see the good old days
Shinin' in the sun
I'll be doin' fine and then some

How long, how long
Woman, will you weep?
How long, how long
Rock yourself to sleep

I've been doin' time in a lonesome prison
Where the sun don't shine
And just outside the freedom river runs
Out there in that shiny night
With bloodhounds on your mind
Don't you know it's the same sad situation

How long, how long
Woman, will you weep?
How long, how long

Rock yourself to sleep

Everybody feels alright
You know, I heard some poor fool sing...
(Somebody oooh...)
Everyone is out there on the loose
Well, I wish I lived in the land of fools
Where no one knew my name
But what you get is not quite what you choose

Tell me, how long, how long
Woman, will you weep?
How long, how long
Rock yourself to sleep

How long, how long
Muddy river runs so deep
How long, how long
Goodnight baby, rock yourself to sleep
Sleep tight, baby, rock yourself to sleep
Bye, bye, bye, bye bye, baby, rock yourself to sleep
