Goede keuze, mag er inderdaad vaak in!

Net als deze band:

104 dEUS - Serpentine

In wisselende bezettingen hebben ze al enkele topartiesten in de band gehad. Denk aan Rudy Trouvé, Stef Kamil Carlens, Craig Ward, Tim Vanhamel en nu weer Mauro Pawlowski. Met Tom Barman als constante factor en dit als topnummer:



I'm caught in the flow of things
My memory's broken machine
This is how my day begins
This is just one day unseen

Let's do it serpentine, any time
Let's do it right here
Let's do it serpentine, I don't mind
Let's do it right here

Is it bad that you're good for me
Did I love you just randomly?
I'm caught in the flow of sound
And you're just some melody

Let's do it serpentine, any time
Let's do it right here
Let's do it serpentine, I don't mind
Let's do it right here

There's a cute little litany
Put it on my shoulder
Eight o'clock and we agree
It makes me look much older

Got my clockworks company
Got my dark green trenchcoat on
I'm sure it will always be
Someone staying and someone gone

Let's do it serpentine, any time
Let's do it right here
Let's do it serpentine, I don't mind
Let's do it right here

102 Superchunk - Fishing

Dit was de 1e single die ik van Superchunk leerde kennen, via 120 Minutes op MTV.

101 Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - The Ship Song

Mijn favoriete nummer van één van mijn favoriete artiesten, mooie keuze voor op de rand van de top 100. De clip met meisje is opgenomen nadat Cave enkele dagen uit een ontwenningskliniek was.



Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, baby
Every time you come around

Come loose your dogs upon me
And let your hair hang down
You are a little mystery to me
Every time you come around

We talk about it all night long
We define our moral ground
But when I crawl into your arms
Everything comes tumbling down

Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, baby
Every time you come around

Your face has fallen sad now
For you know the time is nigh
When I must remove your wings
And you, you must try to fly

Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, baby
Every time you come around

Come loose your dogs upon me
And let your hair hang down
You are a little mystery to me
Every time you come around

100 The Strokes - Last Nite



Last night, she said:
"Oh, baby, I feel so down.
Oh it turns me off,
When I feel left out"

So I walked out:
"Oh, baby, don't care no more
I know this for sure,
I'm walkin' out that door"

Well, I've been in town for just about fifteen minutes now
And Baby, I feel so down
And I don't know why
I keep walkin' for miles

See, people they don't understand
No, girlfriends, they can't understand
Your Grandsons, they won't understand
On top of this, I ain't ever gonna understand...

Last night, she said:
"Oh, baby, don't feel so down.
Oh, it turns me off,
When I feel left out"

So I, I turn 'round:
"Oh, baby, gonna be alright"
It was a great big lie
'Cause I left that night, yeah

Oh, people they don't understand
No, girlfriends, they won't understand
Your grandsons, they won't understand
And me, I ain't ever gonna understand...

Last night, she said:
"Oh, baby, I feel so down.
See, it turns me off,
When I feel left out"

So I, I turn 'round:
"Oh, little girl, I don't care no more.
I know this for sure,
I'm walking out that door," yeah

99 David Bowie - Five Years

Dit is mijn favoriete nummer van Bowie. Maar zal het ook zijn hoogste in deze lijst worden of heeft iemand nog een andere?



Pushing thru the market square, so many mothers sighing
News had just come over, we had five years left to cry in
News guy wept and told us, earth was really dying
Cried so much his face was wet, then I knew he was not lying
I heard telephones, opera house, favourite melodies
I saw boys, toys electric irons and T.V.'s
My brain hurt like a warehouse, it had no room to spare
I had to cram so many things to store everything in there
And all the fat-skinny people, and all the tall-short people
And all the nobody people, and all the somebody people
I never thought I'd need so many people

A girl my age went off her head, hit some tiny children
If the black hadn't a-pulled her off, I think she would have killed them
A soldier with a broken arm, fixed his stare to the wheels of a Cadillac
A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest, and a queer threw up at the sight of that

I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour, drinking milk shakes cold and long
Smiling and waving and looking so fine, don't think
you knew you were in this song
And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor
And I thought of Ma and I wanted to get back there
Your face, your race, the way that you talk
I kiss you, you're beautiful, I want you to walk

We've got five years, stuck on my eyes
Five years, what a surprise
We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, that's all we've got
We've got five years, what a surprise
Five years, stuck on my eyes
We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, that's all we've got
We've got five years, stuck on my eyes
Five years, what a surprise
We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, that's all we've got
We've got five years, what a surprise
We've got five years, stuck on my eyes
We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, that's all we've got
Five years
Five years
Five years
Five years

Spinvis - Bagagedrager



je droomt wel vaker van een feest
maar hier ben je nog nooit geweest
iedereen kijkt naar voetbal
en een vent zeurt aan je kop
wat wil die man in hemelsnaam
hoe kom je hier
hoe kom je hier vandaan
en als je wegkomt
waarheen wou je dan wel gaan
hij praat maar door maar jij dwaalt af
dus je weet niet wie de wedstrijd wint
als je luistert naar de wolken
als je luistert naar de wind
je agenda en je zonnebril
wat doen die hier nou
maar je ligt weer in je eigen bed
in je eigen lot
en opeens staat alles stil

een motor draait
de baby huilt
een vogel schreeuwt
de dag begint
en de snelweg suist

tis altijd wat en altijd spijt
van al het geld en alle tijd
op de onverharde wegen
die je naar hier hebben geleid
de ochtenden zijn wit en koud
en hoe je ook je stuur vasthoudt
de wind komt door je handschoenen heen
je vingers zijn versteend
zo is er altijd iets wat je verlamd
en is het niet de wiet
dan is het wel de drank of zo
het spookt maar in je hoofd
het was lang geleden een eeuwigheid
je fietste op de afsluitdijk
ik weet niet wat je er nu van vindt
als je luistert naar de wolken
als je luistert naar de wind

97 Solo - Mind
Prachtig nummer, elke keer weer als het ik aanzet



A slight urge to call you
In the middle of the night
Your sight has set me on fire
But it's warmth without delight

Since you were mine
And during that time
The state you left me in
Felt strange for I was denied, I find my-self so blind

But I didn't mind, no
I didn't mind
I didn't mind, no
I didn't mind

I remember the whispers
Your siren's advice
It brought a smile to your face that
never reached your eyes

When I took the fall
And I was nursing my prides
You felt great you left me
dead and denied, I find my-self so blind

But I didn't mind, no
I didn't mind
I didn't mind, no
I didn't mind

The feed is my greatest triumph
apologies are not due
Because you've left me
Girl I wonder did you know I knew that I'd be fine

So I didn't mind, no
I didn't mind
I didn't mind, no
I didn't mind

I didn't mind, no
I didn't mind
I didn't mind, cause
You were mine...

96: Mostly Autumn - Evergreen




She knows what it means to be evergreen
She's seen more than some eyes will ever see
Clad with green, gracefully she reaches for winter sun
...the lucky one

Spring leaves learning look to the evergreen
Carried on the breeze her tales of snow storms and icicles
With proud yarn she will spin her golden memories into stories

She looks to the sky
She's holding on to yesterday's goodbyes
Goodbye...

She knows what it means to be evergreen
She knows how it feels to have loved and lost
She's seen faces change all around her, then moved on

She'll miss hearing wind through now fallen leaves
She'll stand scraping snow-filled skies alone
Her questions, if could be asked, would be left unanswered

Look to the sky
Holding on to yesterday's goodbyes
Embrace the past, with a forward motion
No fear of looking back

The river keeps on flowing, but the banks are ever changing

Ha, inmiddels in de kleine cijfers. Dan zou de muziek beter en beter moeten worden. Maar ik vermoed dat dat hier net als in de echte top 2000 niet het geval zal zijn.

95 Pearl Jam - Rearviewmirror

Je hebt van die nummers die zo lang naar een climax toewerken dat tegen de tijd dat je bij de climax aankomt je van gekkigheid al niet meer weet wat je moet doen. Neem nou dit nummer. Je voelt vanaf de eerste noot al waar het heen gaat, maar het duurt nog wel dik 4 minuten voor je er bent.

94: Marillion - Afraid of sunlight



Drive the road to your surrender
Time comes around... out of my hands
Small boats on the beach at the dead of night
Come and go before first light
Leave me running in the wheel
King of the world
How do you feel?
What is there to feel?

So how do we now come to be
Afraid of sunlight?
Tell me girl why you and me
Scared of sunlight?

Been in pain for so long
I can't even say what hurts anymore
I will leave you alone
I will deny
I will leave you to bleed
I will leave you with your life

So how do we now come to be
Afraid of sunlight?
Tell me girl why you and me
Scared of sunlight?

All your spirit rack abuses
Come to haunt you back by day
All your Byzantine excuses
Given time, given you away

Don't be surprised when daylight comes
To find that memory prick your thumbs
You'll tell them where we run to hide
I'm already dead
It's a matter of time

So how do we now come to be
Afraid of sunlight
How do we now come to be
Afraid of sunlight

Day-Glo Jesus on the dash
Chalk marks on the road ahead
Friendly fire in hostile waters
Keep the faith
Don't lose your head

So how do we now come to be?

Ik hoopte op minder Mostly Autumn maar helaas

93 Sugarhill Gang - Rapper's Delight

Dit nummer moet ook gewoon in de lijst. Het eerste rapnummer allertijden (al wordt dat weleens betwist) maar toch zeker het nummer waar hiphop héél veel aan te danken heeft (bijvoorbeeld de naam, de eerste lyrics: I said a hip hop/the hippie the hippie/To the hip hip hop/You don't stop). De hele samplingcultuur die met hiphop gepaard gaat is ook hier begonnen: de sample komt uit Good Times van Chic (#128). Legendarisch en onmisbaar in deze lijst.

The song is ranked #248 on the Rolling Stone magazine's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, and #2 on VH1's 100 Greatest Hip-Hop Songs.

Helaas ja, ze blijven de lijst maar vervuilen... Wel respect voor Mind trouwens

92 LUNA SEA - Rosier



Van hun beste album, Mother. Het meest catchy nummer dat ik ooit heb gehoord. Ik kreeg het dagenlang niet uit m'n hoofd toen ik het voor de eerste keer hoorde en elke keer als ik aan LUNA SEA denk of nadat ik ze weer gehoord hebt, komt deze melodie weer in m'n hoofd en krijg ik het er niet uit voor de volgende paar dagen.

Het is echt zo erg, en het is ook echt heel erg goed.
Met Rosier heeft de band een iconisch nummer neergezet.

Ik zal je geruststellen, ik zet ze er hierna nog maar één keer in. Evenals Marillion.

Oh ik heb trouwens nog minstens 5 nummers die erin moeten, dus rustig aan

91 Queens of the Stone Age - No One Knows



We get some rules to follow
That and this, these and those
No one knows
We get these pills to swallow
How they stick in your throat
Tastes like gold
Oh, what you do to me
No one knows

And I realize you're mine
Indeed a fool am I
And I realize you're mine
Indeed a fool am I

A journey through the desert
Of the mind with no hope
I follow
I drift along the ocean
Dead lifeboats in the sun
And come undone
Pleasently caving in
I come undone

And I realize you're mine
Indeed a fool am I
And I realize you're mine
Indeed a fool am I

Heaven smiles above me
What a gift here below
But no one knows
The gift that you give to me
No one knows

90: Pink Floyd - High Hopes



Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles
Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begun

Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway
Do they still meet there by the Cut

There was a ragged band that followed our footsteps
Running before time took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
With friends surrounded
The nights of wonder

Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by force of some inner tide

At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Though down this road we've been so many times

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist growing
The water flowing
The endless river

Forever and ever

Ik nog maar 2 die echt moeten. Dan stop ik en laat ik de rest van de top 100 vervuilen aan jullie over.

Edit: nou ja, eigenlijk wel 20 of zo maar dat zijn dan 20 nummers van 2 artiesten. Want ja ze zijn echt zo goed, maar dat is een beetje overkill dus doe ik er nog 2. De twee mooiste van het mooiste.

Big Country - The Storm



I came from the hills with a tear in my eye
The winter closed in and the crows filled the sky
The houses were burning the flames gold and red
The people were running with eyes filled with dread

Ah my James
They didn't have to do this

We chased them for miles I had hate in my eyes
Through forest and moors as the clouds filled the skies
The storm broke upon us with fury and flame
Both hunters and hunted washed out in the rain
[ Big Country Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]

I know I can never return
To the time of hope when I was born
Let the strength of peace run through my hand
When we walk away from the ?stormy shore?
Then I will be afraid no more
And now I'm sure of where I stand
Let the strength of peace run through this land

And nobody smiled as we took back our own
While rain beat upon us the thunder did moan
And nobody smiled when we knew what was lost
We knew well enough only time proves the cost

Dat is ondertussen 89, EFM

edit: OK, laat maar

88: Omnia - The Morrigan



Over hills and over meadows
see the crow fly, feel her shadow
Over woods and over mountains
searching for a war

Her wings embrace each strife and battle
where swords they clash and chariots rattle
seeking out the one whose time
has come to take the blade

Morrigan ancient crone of war
I see your face, I'll cry no more
Morrigan ancient crone of war
come lift me on your wings

Morrigan ancient crone of war
I hear your voice, I'll breathe no more
Morrigan ancient crone of war
come set my spirit free

Kill for Morrigan
Maim for Morrigan
Fight for Morrigan
and you will
Slay for Morrigan
Die for Morrigan
Morrigan crone of war

Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze



Purple haze all in my brain
Lately things just don't seem the same
Actin' funny, but I don't know why
'Scuse me while I kiss the sky

Purple haze all around
Don't know if I'm comin' up or down
Am I happy or in misery?
Whatever it is, that girl put a spell on me

Help me help me
Oh no no... no

Yeah
Purple haze all in my eyes
Don't know if it's day or night
You've got me blowin, blowin my mind
Is it tomorrow or just the end of time?

No, help me aw yeah! oh no no oh help me...
