THE MARVELLETTES
Darling Forever

Χθες είδα ένα θριλεράκι με τίτλο Vanishing On 7th Street.
Το trailer ήταν πολλά υποσχόμενο, η ταινία τελικώς με άφησε αδιάφορο, πέρα από το σασπένς που φαίνεται να είχε από την αρχή. Τελικά αυτό που έμεινε στο μυαλό είναι το Darling Forever, το οποίο ακούστηκε σε μια ιδιαίτερα συγκινητική σκηνή
-και που ίσως ήταν το καλύτερο σημείο σε όλη την ταινία!



The Marvellettes
Darling Forever
Release: 1961

Darling forever, forever
You can break my heart
Forever if you want to
I'll play the part of a fool
Just to be with you... forever

Darling forever, forever
You can torment me (forever)
Take my love for granted
But I'll always be (forever)
Just a fool (just a fool)
If I (just a fool), if I could be with you

I'll be your slave for the rest of my days
Love you more in so, so many ways
Just to be with you thrills me through and through

And darling forever (forever), forever (forever)
You can torment me (forever)
Take my love (forever) for granted (forever)
But I`ll always be (forever)
Just a fool (just a fool)
If I (just a fool), if I (just a fool) could be with you

Darling, forever, forever
No matter what you say or do
I always, I always

DOLORES O' RIORDAN
Accept Things

Η αγαπημένη φωνή των Cranberries σε ένα άλμπουμ που την απογείωσε.
Το Accept Things παίζει πολύ στη λίστα του mp3 player μου!



Dolores O' Riordan
Accept Things
Release: 2008

You seem to forget
The place that we met
Protected and warm
In the perfect storm

I think you pretend
That you are my friend
It's easy to see
That you're envious of me

Hold, Hold, Hold, Hold

You should open your eyes
Make it easy to accept things
You should open your eyes
Make it easy to accept things
Accpet things

You should not forget
The people you met
On the way up
Or on the way down

Hold, Hold, Hold, Hold

You should open your eyes
Make it easy to accept things
You should open your eyes
Make it easy to accept things
Accept things

AURORA feat NAIMEE COLEMAN
Ordinary World

Σαφώς προτιμάτε την origina εκτέλεση (την οποία θα βρείτε μετά τους στίχους)
αλλά κι αυτή εδώ είναι εξίσου καλή!



Aurora ft. Naimee Coleman
Ordinary World
Release: 2000

Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue
Thought I heard you talking softly

I turned on the lights, the TV and the radio
Still I can't escape the ghost of you

What has happened to it all?
Crazy, some'd say
Where is the life that I recognize?
Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Passion or coincidence
Once prompted you to say
"Pride will tear us both apart"
Well now pride's gone out the window
Cross the rooftops, run away
Left me in the vacuum of my heart

What is happening to me?
Crazy, some'd say
Where is my friend when I need you most?
Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Papers in the roadside
Tell of suffering and greed
Here today, forgot tomorrow
Ooh, here besides the news
Of holy war and holy need
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk

And I don't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Every one is my world, I will learn to survive
Any one is my world, I will learn to survive
Any one is my world
Every one is my world

THE CURE
More Than This

Είχα να το ακούσω εδώ και μήνες, όταν έφτιαχνα μια συλλογή. Μου είχε κολλήσει ένα διάστημα όταν το πρωτοάκουσα στη σειρά X-Files και μου έκανε τρομερή εντύπωση. Σήμερα ξαναήρθε στην επιφάνεια, αγκαζέ με τη βροχή!



The Cure
More Than This
Release: 2004 (Join The Dots - B-sides & Rarities 1978-2001)

For a second of your life
Tell me that it's true
Waiting for a sign
It's all I want of you
Your heart hides a secret
"The promise of what is... "

...or something more than this?

Just a second of your time
Any one will do
The taste of any 'other'
Is all I want from you
Offer me the world
And how can I resist
Something more than this?

Make-believe in magic
Make-believe in dreams
Make-believe in possible
Nothing as it seems
To see touch taste smell hear
But never know if it's real...

For a second of your life
Tell me if it's true
Anywhere beyond
It's all I want of you
On your lips lies a secret
"The promise of a kiss... "

...or something more than this?

Just a second of your time
Any one will do
To know of any 'other'
Is all I want from you
Giving me the world
Know I can't resist
Something more than this

Make-believe in magic
Make-believe in dreams
Make-believe in possible
Nothings as it seems
And never really understand
What anything means...

Another second of my life
Not knowing if it's true
Make-believe in nothing
It's all I want of you
Whisper me the secret
Whisper me...

"There is always something other...
Something more than this"

KANSAS
Dust In The Wind

...Μην αγχώνεστε...
Πιο κάτω υπάρχει κι η original εκτέλεση!




Kansas
Dust In The Wind
Release: 1977

I close my eyes
only for a moment
and the moment's gone
all my dreams
pass before my eyes a curiosity
dust in the wind
all we are is dust in the wind

Same old song
just a drop of water
in the endless sea
all we do
crumbles to the ground
though we refuse to see
dust in the wind
all we are is dust in the wind

Now, don't hang on
nothing last forever
but the earth and sky
it slips away

And all your money
won't another minute buy

Dust in the wind
all we are is dust in the wind
dust in the wind
everything is dust in the wind

Runaway Train

Αυτοί, μετά το Runaway Train, έβγαλαν κανένα άλλο τραγούδι/βίντεο;



Soul Asylum
Runaway Train
Release: 1992

Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a blowtorch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning

So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep

It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep there's no way out
This time I have really led myself astray

Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Can you help me remember how to smile?
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded?
Life's mystery seems so faded

I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here I am just a-drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train

And everything seems cut and dried
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow I just don't believe it

Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughing at the rain
A little out of touch, a little insane
It's just easier than dealing with the pain

Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Runaway train, never coming back
Runaway train, tearing up the track
Runaway train, burning in my veins
I run away but it always seems the same

WITHIN TEMPTATION
Faster

Από προχτές που το πρωτοάκουσα στον Leviathan, το έχω λιώσει στον player!
Πώς να μη μου κολλήσει μετά;
Νέο και ήδη αγαπημένο!



Within Temptation
Faster
Release: 2011

I can’t see, cause it’s burning deep inside.
Like gasoline, a fire running wild.
No more fear, cause I’m getting closer now.
So unreal, but I like it anyhow.

I go faster and faster and faster
and faster and faster and faster and faster.

I can’t live in a fairytale of lies.
And I can’t hide from the feeling cause it’s right.
And I go faster and faster and faster and faster for love.
And I can’t live in a fairytale of lies.

I can feel that you’ve mezmerized my heart.
I feel so free.
I’m alive, I’m breaking out.
I won’t give in, cause I’m proud of all my scars.
And I can see I’ve been wasting too much time.

All the Things She Said

Δεν ξέρω τι λέτε εσείς...
Έγινε πανικός με το συγκεκριμένο group. Κατάφεραν να προωθήσουν την καριέρα τους χωρίς καν να μιλήσουν για την πάρτη τους. Όλη τη δουλειά την κάναμε εμείς με τα κουτσομπολιά και την αδιακρισία μας. Μαζί με τα άλλα τραγούδια που μου καρφώνονται στο κεφάλι, αυτό εδώ κάνει μια guest εμφάνιση καθημερινά. Νομίζω ότι του αξίζει μια θέση εδώ μέσα!

All The Things She Said
Release: 2002

I'm in serious shit, I feel totally lost
If I'm asking for help it's only because
Being with you has opened my eyes
Could I ever believe such a perfect surprise?

I keep asking myself, wondering how
I keep closing my eyes but I can't block you out
Wanna fly to a place where it's just you and me
Nobody else so we can be free
Nobody else so we can be free

All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
Running through my head

This is not enough
Ya Soshla S Uma - Ma!
This is not enough

And I'm all mixed up, feeling cornered and rushed
They say it's my fault but I want her so much
Wanna fly her away where the sun and rain
Come in over my face, wash away all the shame
When they stop and stare - don't worry me
'Cause I'm feeling for her what she's feeling for me
I can try to pretend, I can try to forget
But it's driving me mad, going out of my head

All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
Running through my head

Mother looking at me
Tell me what do you see?
Yes, I've lost my mind

Daddy looking at me
Will I ever be free?
Have I crossed the line?

All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
Running through my head

And it won't protect me
Don't want my dreams
Adding up to nothing
I was just looking for
Everybody's looking for something

Cause I used to live
In a tiny bubble
And I wanted to be
Like all the pretty people
That were all around me
But now I know for sure
That I was stupid

Τη γνωρίσατε το 2001, όταν στα club γινόταν πανικός με το Rapture των ΙΙΟ. Τέσσερα χρόνια αργότερα, η Nadia Ali ακολούθησε το δικό της δρόμο και μεταμορφώθηκε σε μια από τις καλύτερες και περιζήτητες dance divas της μουσικής. Το Better Run παίζει πολύ και έπαιξε αρκετά σήμερα στο μυαλό μου!

Once upon a time there lived a girl
She knew what she wanted from the world
In the bright ice they could see the fire that burn like summer heat
Nothing but trouble so they thougt they could just watch her from far
If they looked close the flame was a tear
they never seen a girl so fear

Once upon a time there lived a boy
He would only play with real life toys
One hand here and one hand there
No attachments this man wears
A smile so sweetit΄s hard to see
That there΄s no fruit growing in his tree
Once a fool he learned long ago
It΄s better to burn than to feel that cold

Dance in you're lap till you're ready to pop

On the late night, till daylight the club jumpin'
If you want a good time, she gone give you what you want

Just how it be, on me, backstrokin',
Sweat soaking
All into my set sheets
When she ready to ride, I'm ready to roll
I'll be in this bitch till the club close
What should I do, on all fours
Now that that shit should be against the law
Different style, different move,

Damn I like the way you move
Girl you got me thinking about,
All the things I'd do to you
Let's get it poppin' shorty
We can switch positions
From the couch to the counters of my kitchen

Magic De Spell
Διακοπές Στο Sarajevo (Φώναξε)
Release: 1993

Βαδίζω με μάτια κλειστά
τα βαστώ σφαλιστά κι ονειρεύομαι
Μην μ΄ αγγίζεις μην με ξυπνάς
την αλήθεια σας πια δεν την δέχομαι

Δεν ανοίγω τα μάτια μου καν
Διασχίζω τον κόσμο και φλέγομαι
Αν μ΄ αγαπάς μη μιλάς
Άλλα ψέματα δεν τα ανέχομαι

Φώναξε,
η ζωή μας χάνεται, πάει
Διάλυσε,
τη σκόνη που σκεπάζει το φως
Ο θάνατος,
διακοπές στο Sarajevo πάει
Ξύπνησε,
στις ειδήσεις τα βλέπεις και τρως

Απόψε τα βλέπω διπλά
Ήλιος λάμπει κι ας είναι μεσάνυχτα
Δυο τσιγάρα πολύ δυνατά
κι εκτοξεύομαι μες το διάστημα

Μια οθόνη που δείχνει μηδέν
Εποχές που δεν γίνονται θαύματα
Ένα στόμα φωνάζει πως δεν
Θα με πείσεις με χίλια τεχνάσματα

Το ότι θα περνούσα ένα βράδυ με δέκατα και ότι θα ξυπνούσα το πρωί με υποθερμία και με το I Was Made For Loving You, δε θα το φανταζόμουν ποτέ!
Ανακάλυψα επίσης μια πολύ καλή εκτέλεση του τραγουδιού από τη Maria Mena, για όσους δεν αντέχουν τους Kiss -αν και είναι κλασσικό κομμάτι!
Mετά τους στίχους, μπορείτε να ακούσετε και την original εκτέλεση από τους Kiss.

And girl, you were made for me

I was made for lovin' you baby
You were made for lovin' me
And I can't get enough of you baby
Can you get enough of me?

Tonight I wanna see it in your eyes
Feel the magic, there's something that drives me wild
And tonight we're gonna make it all come true
'Cause girl, you were made for me
And girl, I was made for you

I was made for lovin' you baby
You were made for lovin' me
And I can't get enough of you baby

Knock You Out

Όταν η trance παντρεύεται με το synthpop μπορεί να βγει ένα πολύ καλό αποτέλεσμα -ιδιαίτερα αν σε αυτό έχει βάλει το χεράκι του ο Tiesto. Το τραγουδάκι άρεσε στην αγαπημένη μου Στέλλα κι έτσι της το χαρίζω για σήμερα!

You gotta knock me out some other way
And I want to be with the sun and the moon
I've been hopeless
I've been..

Somebody to take you out
Somebody to show you how
Somebody to train you
Somebody to love
But wait...

Is it still love you want
Somebody to put you down
Somebody to smack you 'round
Somebody to love
But wait...

All Good Things (Come To An End)

Ξυπνάω ξαφνικά γύρω στις 5 (για διάφορους λόγους! :P ) Η Nelly σιγουτραγουδούσε στο μυαλό μου. Για μην ξεχάσω λοιπόν το song of the day, σηκώθηκα και το σημείωσα κάπου! Ευτυχώς, όταν ξύπνησα μια λογική ώρα αργότερα, το τραγούδι ήταν ακόμη στο...repeat!

All Good Things (Come To An End)
Release: 2007

Honestly what will become of me
don't like reality
It's way too clear to me
But really life is dandy
We are what we don't see
Missed everything daydreaming

Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?

Traveling I only stop at exits
Wondering if I'll stay
Young and restless
Living this way I stress less
I want to pull away when the dream dies
The pain sets in and I don't cry
I only feel gravity and I wonder why

Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?

Well the dogs were whistling a new tune
Barking at the new moon
Hoping it would come soon so that they could
Dogs were whistling a new tune
Barking at the new moon
Hoping it would come soon so that they could
Die die die die die

Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?


Well the dogs were barking at a new moon
Whistling a new tune
Hoping it would come soon
And the sun was wondering if it should stay away for a day 'til the feeling went away
And the sky was falling on the clouds were dropping and
the rain forgot how to bring salvation
the dogs were barking at the new moon
Whistling a new tune
Hoping it would come soon so that they could die.

SCOOTER feat ANTONELLA RUGGIERRO (MATIA BAZAR)
Ti Sento

Πρέπει να ήμουν γύρω στα 6 όταν άκουσα αυτό το τραγούδι!
24 χρόνια μετά, οι Scooter έπιασαν από το μαλλί τη γερασμένη αλλά πάντα φινετσάτη φωνάρα των Matia Bazar και είπαν να...φρεσκάρουν λίγο τη μνήμη των «παλιών» αλλά και να προσθέσουν κάτι καινούριο στη μνήμη των «νέων»!
Δείτε το original βίντεο από το 1985, μετά τους πρώτους στίχους!

Ti Sento
Release: 2009

24 hours a day
12 months a year
It's all about the sound
You're about to hear

Got my style from up above
Out of the speaker
It fits like a glove
In a any contest
Got the tune
That's coming up next

When everybody's running for the cash - refresh
All I want is ching ching
All the girls, bling bling
We're live on the set
Make you sweat in effect
Our arms can't be killed
The styles that I built, yeah
Alright!

La parola non ha
Ne sapore ne idea
Ma due occhi invadenti
Petali d'orchidea
Se non ha
Anima
Get up, yes!

Ti sento, la musica si muove appena
Mi accorgo che mi scoppia dentro
Yeah!
Ti sento, un brivido lungo la schiena
Un colpo che fa pieno centro
C'mon!
Mi ami o no

24 hours a day
12 months a year
It's all about the sound
You're about to hear

Right out of the speaker
Sounds crystal clear
Wrong side of the mic
I show no fear

Se non ha
Anima
Alright!
Ti sento, la musica si muove appena
Mi accorgo che mi scoppia dentro
Give it up now!
Ti sento, un brivido lungo la schiena
Un colpo che fa pieno centro
Ragazzi!
Mi ami o no

Rock the disco

24 hours a day
12 months a year
It's all about the sound
You're about to hear

Se non ha
Anima
Come on, here we go, yes!
Ti sento, la musica si muove appena
Mi accorgo che mi scoppia dentro
Alright now!
Ti sento, un brivido lungo la schiena
Un colpo che fa pieno centro
Mi ami o no

Ti Sento

La parola non ha ne' sapore ne' idea
ma due occhi invadenti petali d'orchidea
se non ha anima .... anima
Ti sento, la musica si muove appena
è un fuoco che mi scoppia dentro,
ti sento, un brivido lungo la schiena
un colpo che fa pieno centro!

Mi ami o no ... mi ami o no .... mi ami?
Che mi resta di te, della tua poesia
mentre l'ombra del sogno lenta scivola via
se non ha anima ... anima

Ti sento, bellissima statua sommersa
seduti, sdraiati, impacciati!
Ti sento atlantide isola persa,
amanti soltanto accennati !
mi ami o no ... mi ami o no .... mi ami ?
Ti sento, deserto lontano miraggio
la sabbia che vuole accecarmi
ti sento, nell'aria un amore selvaggio,
vorrei incontrarti .....

Halo
Release: 2008


Remember those walls I built
Well, baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make up a sound

I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now

It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm takin'
I ain't never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace

You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo

Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light

I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't forget
To pull me back to the ground again

Feels like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
The risk that I'm takin'
I'm never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace

You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace

You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo

Sick And Tired
Release: 2004

My love is on the line
My love is on the line
My love is on the line
My love is on the line

A little late for all the things you didn't say
I'm not sad for you
But I'm sad for all the time I had to waste
'Cause I learned the truth
Your heart is in a place I no longer wanna be
I knew there'd come a day
I'd set you free
'Cause I'm sick and tired
Of always being sick and tired

Your love isn't fair
You live in a world where you didn't listen
And you didn't care
So I'm floating
Floating on air

No warning of such a sad song
Of broken hearts
My dreams of fairy tales and fantasy, oh
Were torn apart
I lost my peace of mind
Somewhere along the way
I knew there's come a time
You'd hear me say
I'm sick and tired
of always being sick and tired

DON McLEAN / MADONNA
American Pie

Είχα πολύ καιρό να θυμηθώ ένα τραγούδι από τα παλιά, πέρα από το No Milk Today. Βέβαια, ως τρελό νιάτο, μ' αρέσει περισσότερο η version της Μαντονίτσας
κι ιδιαίτερα το remix του Richard "Humpty".
Εδώ θα ακούσετε σαφώς την original έκδοση του American Pie
και φυσικά αυτή που μου κόλλησε σήμερα στο κεφάλι!
Υπάρχουν οι στίχοι και για τις 2 versions!
Το πρώτο video είναι αφιερωμένο στη Γιαγιά Αντιγόνη!









Don McLean
American Pie
Release: 1971
Reissue: 1991

A long, long time ago...
I can still remember
How that music used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And, maybe, they'd be happy for a while.

But february made me shiver
With every paper I'd deliver.
Bad news on the doorstep;
I couldn't take one more step.

I can't remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed bride,
But something touched me deep inside
The day the music died.

So bye-bye, miss american pie.
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Singin', "this'll be the day that I die.
"this'll be the day that I die."

Did you write the book of love,
And do you have faith in God above,
If the Bible tells you so?
Do you believe in rock 'n roll,
Can music save your mortal soul,
And can you teach me how to dance real slow?

Well, I know that you're in love with him
`cause I saw you dancin' in the gym.
You both kicked off your shoes.
Man, I dig those rhythm and blues.

I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck,
But I knew I was out of luck
The day the music died.

I started singin',
"bye-bye, miss american pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
And singin', "this'll be the day that I die.
"this'll be the day that I die."

Now for ten years we've been on our own
And moss grows fat on a rollin' stone,
But that's not how it used to be.
When the jester sang for the king and queen,
In a coat he borrowed from james dean
And a voice that came from you and me,

Oh, and while the king was looking down,
The jester stole his thorny crown.
The courtroom was adjourned;
No verdict was returned.
And while lennon read a book of marx,
The quartet practiced in the park,
And we sang dirges in the dark
The day the music died.

We were singing,
"bye-bye, miss american pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
And singin', "this'll be the day that I die.
"this'll be the day that I die."

Helter skelter in a summer swelter.
The birds flew off with a fallout shelter,
Eight miles high and falling fast.
It landed foul on the grass.
The players tried for a forward pass,
With the jester on the sidelines in a cast.

Now the half-time air was sweet perfume
While the sergeants played a marching tune.
We all got up to dance,
Oh, but we never got the chance!
`cause the players tried to take the field;
The marching band refused to yield.
Do you recall what was revealed
The day the music died?

We started singing,
"bye-bye, miss american pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
And singin', "this'll be the day that I die.
"this'll be the day that I die."

Oh, and there we were all in one place,
A generation lost in space
With no time left to start again.
So come on: jack be nimble, jack be quick!
Jack flash sat on a candlestick
Cause fire is the devil's only friend.

Oh, and as I watched him on the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage.
No angel born in hell
Could break that satan's spell.
And as the flames climbed high into the night
To light the sacrificial rite,
I saw satan laughing with delight
The day the music died

He was singing,
"bye-bye, miss american pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
And singin', "this'll be the day that I die.
"this'll be the day that I die."

I met a girl who sang the blues
And I asked her for some happy news,
But she just smiled and turned away.
I went down to the sacred store
Where I'd heard the music years before,
But the man there said the music wouldn't play.

And in the streets: the children screamed,
The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed.
But not a word was spoken;
The church bells all were broken.
And the three men I admire most:
The father, son, and the holy ghost,
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died.

And they were singing,
"bye-bye, miss american pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Singin', "this'll be the day that I die.
"this'll be the day that I die."

They were singing,
"bye-bye, miss american pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Singin', "this'll be the day that I die."

OWL CITY
Fireflies

Χτες είχα τον player στο repeat και η μικρή μου ανηψιά (6 μηνών)το χάζευε σαν τρελή. Σήμερα είπε τις πρώτες τις... τσιρίδες στο Skype, «μιλώντας» με μια φίλη μου!


Owl City
Fireflies
Release: 2009

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep

'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand and stare

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems

'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance

A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

Leave my door open just a crack
(Please take me away from here)
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
(Please take me away from here)
Why do I tire of counting sheep
(Please take me away from here)
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep

To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell

But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams

Feels Like Tonight
Release: 2007

You, you got me
Thinking it'll be alright.
You, you told me,
"Come and take a look inside."
You believed me,
In every single lie.
But I, I failed you this time.

And it feels like tonight.
I can't believe I'm broken inside.
Can't you see that there's nothing that I wanna do,
But try to make it up to you?
And it feels like tonight,
Tonight.

I was waiting
For the day you'd come around.
I was chasing,
And nothing was all I found.
From the moment you came into my life,
You showed me what's right.

And it feels like tonight.
I can't believe I'm broken inside.
Can't you see that there's nothing that I wanna do,
But try to make it up to you?
And it feels like tonight.

I never felt like this before.
Just when I leave, I'm back for more.
Nothing else here seems to matter.
In these ever-changing days,
You're the one thing that remains.
I could stay like this forever.

And it feels like tonight.
I can't believe I'm broken inside.
Can't you see that there's nothing that I wanna do,
But try to make it up to you?
And it feels like tonight.
Tonight.
Tonight.
'Cause there's nothing that I wanna do,
But try to make it up to you.
And it feels like tonight.
Tonight.

BILLIE MYERS
Kiss The Rain

Τα γέλια που έκανα μια μέρα με αυτό το τραγούδι.
Μιλούσαμε στο msn με την Ποδηλάτρη. Πάνω στην κουβέντα πιάσαμε τα γλυκά και τις τούρτες. Ξαφνικά θυμήθηκε πως είχε καιρό να φάει quiche lorraine (κις λορέν). Κι εγώ -όπως συνέβη σήμερα μόλις ξύπνησα- θυμήθηκα το Kiss The Rain. Της έστειλα λοιπόν το τραγούδι και την παρότρυνα να αντικαταστήσει τον τίτλο με το όνομα της τούρτας. Ξεραθήκαμε στα γέλια. Από τότε, το Kiss The Rain -ή αν προτιμάτε Κις Λορέν- έγινε ο ήχος κλήσης της Ποδηλάτρη στο κινητό μου!
Αφιερωμένο σε εσένα λατρεία!





Billie Myers
Kiss The Rain
Released: 1997


Hello
Can you hear me?
Am I gettin' through to you?
Hello
Is it late there?
There's a laughter on the line
Are you sure you're there alone?
Cause I'm
Tryin' to explain
Somethin's wrong
Ya just don't sound the same
Why don't you
Why don't you
Go outside
Go outside
Kiss the rain
Whenever you need me
Kiss the rain
Whenever I'm gone, too long.
If your lips
Feel lonely and thirsty
Kiss the rain
And wait for the dawn.
Keep in mind
We're under the same sky
And the nights
As empty for me, as for you
If ya feel
You can't wait till morinin'
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Hello
Do you miss me?
I hear you say you do
But not the way I'm missin' you
What's new?
How's the weather?
Is it stormy where you are?
Cause you sound so close but it feels like you're so far
Oh would it mean anything
If you knew
What I'm left imagining
In my mind
In my mind
Would you go
Would you go
Kiss the rain
And you'd fall over me
Think of me
Think of me
Think of me
Only me
Kiss the rain
Whenever you need me
Kiss the rain
Whenever I'm gone too long
If your lips
Feel hungry and tempted
Kiss the rain
and wait for the dawn
Keep in mind
We're under the same skies
And the nights
As empty for me, as for you
If you feel
You can't wait till morning
Kiss the rain

No Milk Today

Περιττό να σας πω, πως από την ώρα που έδωσα αυτόν τον τίτλο στο blog, τo συγκεκριμένο τραγούδι παίζει στο repeat μέσα στο μυαλό μου!!!



UPDATE!!!

Η φίλη Arendhel, έστειλε μια διαφορετική video version. ΔΕΝ ΥΠΑΡΧΕΙ!


Herman's Hermits
No Milk Today
Released: 1966


No milk today my love is gone away
The bottle stands forlon a symbol of the dawn
No milk today it seems a common sight
But people passing by don't know the reason why

How could they know just what this message means
The end of all my hopes the end of all my dreams
How could they know a palace there had been
Behind the door where my love reigned as queen
No milk today it wasn't always so
The company was gay we turn'd night into day

But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
Becomes a shrine when I think of you only
Just two up to down

No milk today it wasn't always so
The company was gay we turn'd night into day
As music played the faster did we dance
We felt it both at once the start of our romance

How could they know just what this message means
The end of all my hopes the end of all my dreams
How could they know a palace there had been
Behind the door where my love reigned as queen
No milk today my love is gone away
The bottle stands forlon a symbol of the dawn

But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
Becomes a shrine when I think of you only
Just two up to down

No milk today my love is gone away
The bottle stands forlon a symbol of the dawn
No milk today it seems a common sight
But people passing by don't know the reason why

How could they know just what this message means
The end of all my hopes the end of all my dreams
How could they know a palace there had been
Behind the door where my love reigned as queen
No milk today it wasn't always so
The company was gay we turn'd night into day

But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town

Tried to write you a love song
thought I could
so far what I told you - you misunderstood
it used to be so good
what went wrong with us?

I remember a night in Montparnasse
you gave me a painting it made our hearts
so I cherish all moments
when we still were young

I won’t give it up
can’t you see I’m not strong enough? ooh
don’t call my bluff
a sunny sunny day


I’m doing it all for you
but you’re letting me down
you better turn around
I’m doing it all for you , all all for you

L amour est neant


Hand in hand on our journey
set for love
you and me against the world
never apart
So naive I could be
I thought our love
would last

I won’t give it up
can’t you see I’m not strong enough? ooh
don’t call my bluff
a sunny sunny day


when I’m singing the groove for you
all all for you


Come to me, honey
help me understand
about your feelings, about your plans
just one more chance to hear my prayer

All for you
I will do the thing tomorrow
All for you
Babe I've no regrets nor sorrow
All for you
I will do the same tomorrow

Released: 1996

A sign of time
I lost my life, forgot to die
Like any man, a frightened guy
I'm keeping memories inside
Of wounded love

But I know
I'm more than sad and more today
I'm eating words too hard to say
A single tear and I'm away
Away and gone

I need you
So far from hell, so far from you
'Cause heaven's hard and black and gray
You're just a someone gone away
You never said goodbye
Why, lover why ?
Why do flowers die ?
Why, lover why ?

Everytime
I hear your voice, you heard my name
You built the fire, wet the flame
I swim for life, can't take the rain
No turning back

I need you
So far from hell, so far from you
'Cause heaven's hard and black and gray
You're just a someone gone away
You never said goodbye
Why, lover why ?
Why do flowers die ?
Why, lover why ?

Which Song Today?


...Σας έχει τύχει να ξυπνάτε το πρωί (το μεσημέρι ή όποια άλλη στιγμή της ημέρας), έχοντας στο μυαλό σας μια μελωδία ή ένα τραγούδι και να το σιγοτραγουδάτε μέχρι να ξυπνήσετε για τα καλά;

Έχοντας μεγαλώσει με μουσική -τρώω με μουσική, διαβάζω με μουσική, κοιμάμαι με μουσική, ακόμα και τις εξετάσεις τις πέρασα συνδυάζοντας απαντήσεις με τραγούδια!-, σκεφτόμουν πολύ καιρό να καταγράφω σε ένα τετράδιο όσα τραγούδια μου έρχονταν στο μυαλό κάθε μέρα που ξυπνούσα.

Έτσι αποφάσισα να ξεκινήσω αυτό το blog (γιατί έχω και λίγα, ανάθεμα την όρεξή μου!) κι εύχομαι να σας κρατήσει συντροφιά, να σας δείξει τραγούδια που δεν τα έχετε ακούσει, τραγούδια που κάτι σας θύμιζαν και τα συνδέατε με προσωπικές σας στιγμές, τραγούδια που ξεχνούσατε τον τίτλο, τον ερμηνευτή ή ακόμα και τραγούδια που είχατε ξεχάσει παντελώς!

Καλή ακρόαση!
