Fok!s eigen Top 2000 #2

Beste mensen, even op de nummering letten. Dit wordt:

1665 Falco - Der Kommissar

Dit is nog aardig. Vervolgens gingen Bolland & Bolland zich ermee bemoeien :-(



Two, three, four
Eins, zwei, drei
Na, es is nix dabei
Na, wenn ich euch erzähl' die G'schicht'
Nichts desto trotz,
Ich bin es schon gewohnt
Im TV-Funk da läuft es nicht. -
Ja, sie war jung,
Das Herz so rein und weiß
Und jede Nacht hat ihren Preis,
Sie sagt: “Sugar Sweet,
Ya got me rappin' to the heat!”
Ich verstehe, sie ist heiß,
Sie sagt: “Baby, you know,
I miss my funky friends,”
Sie meint Jack und Joe und Jill.
Mein Funkverständnis,
Ja, das reicht zur Not,
Ich überreiss', was sie jetzt will. -*
Ich überleg' bei mir,
Ihr' Nas'n spricht dafür,
Währenddessen ich noch rauch',
Die Special Places sind ihr wohlbekannt,
Ich mein', sie fährt ja U-Bahn auch.
Dort singen's:
“Dreh' dich nicht um, schau, schau,
der Kommissar geht um!
Er wird dich anschau'n
und du weißt warum.
Die Lebenslust bringt dich um.”
Alles klar, Herr Kommissar?

Hey man, wanna buy some stuff, man?
Did you ever rap that thing Jack?
So rap it to the beat!
Wir treffen Jill and Joe
Und dessen Bruder hip
Und auch den Rest der coolen Gang
Sie rappen hin, sie rappen her
Dazwischen kratzen's ab die Wänd'. -
Dieser Fall ist klar,
Lieber Herr Kommissar,
Auch wenn sie and'rer Meinung sind:
Den Schnee auf dem wir alle
Talwärts fahr'n,
Kennt heute jedes Kind.
Jetzt das Kinderlied:
“Dreh dich nicht um, schau, schau,
der Kommissar geht um!
Er hat die Kraft und wir sind klein und dumm,
dieser Frust macht uns Stumm.”

“Dreh dich nicht um, schau, schau,
der Kommissar geht um!
Wenn er dich anspricht
und du weißt warum,
Sag ihm: 'Dein Leb'n bringt dich um.'”

1662 The Waterboys - A girl called Johnny

Al vielen ze live wat tegen vorig jaar (en speelden ze dit nummer niet; zou er een correlatie bestaan..?).



I remember johnny - hey!
Johnny come lately
I remember her shoes like a ballerina
A girl called johnny who
Changed her name when she
Discovered her choice was to
Change or to be changed

I remember a girl called johnny
Black as hell and white as a ghost
Dont talk about life or death
She said Ive had enough of both
A girl called johnny who was not scared
Theyd have torn her to pieces but
Who would dare?

I remember a girl called johnny
The train came to town, boy she got on it
With no looking back, with not a word
If she said goodbye, well I never heard
But the noise goes on
The noise, the jazz
And the truth is in somebody elses hands
And the house that a girl called johnny built
Is now just ashes and sand

1660 Air - Sexy boy

Wat een heerlijk album blijft dat Moon Safari toch...



Sexy boy, sexy boy ...
Où sont tes héros aux corps d'athlètes
Où sont tes idoles mal rasées, bien habillées
Sexy boy, sexy boy ...
Dans leurs yeux des dollars
Dans leurs sourires des diamants
Moi aussi un jour je serai beau comme un Dieu
Sexy boy, sexy boy ...
Apollon deux mille zéro défaut vingt et un an
C'est l'homme ideal charme au masculin
Sexy boy, sexy boy ...
English translation:
Where are your heroes with bodies like athletes
Where are your rough shaven, well dressed idols
Sexy Boy Sexy Boy
Dollars in their eyes
Diamonds in their smiles
One day I too will be beautiful like a god
Sexy Boy Sexy Boy
Apollo, perfect x 2000, 21 years old
The ideal man, masculine charm
Sexy Boy Sexy Boy

1658 This Mortal Coil - You and your sister

Een verrassend goede cover. Origineel uiteraard van Chris Bell, voormalig zanger van Big Star. Maar deze versie uit 1991 mag er ook zijn...



you say my love for you's not real
but you don't know how real it feels
all I want to do is to spend some time with you
so I can hold you, hold you
your sister says that I'm no good
I'd reassure her if I could
all I want to do is to spend some time with you
so I can hold you, hold you
friends fail every day
I want to hear you say
your love won't be leaving
your eyes aren't deceiving
fears will soon fade away
smile now, don't be afraid
all I want to do is to spend some time with you
so I can hold you, hold you
so let me whisper in your ear
don't you worry they can't hear
all I want to do is to spend some time with you
so I can hold you, hold you

1655 Bob Dylan - Masters of war

Gek genoeg zijn we Bob nog niet eerder tegengekomen in deze lijst. Onvoorstelbaar dat deze plaat al uit 1963 stamt en nog altijd actueel is qua tekst. En vermoedelijk zal blijven helaas...



Come you masters of war
You that build all the guns
You that build the death planes
You that build the big bombs
You that hide behind walls
You that hide behind desks
I just want you to know
I can see through your masks

You that never done nothin'
But build to destroy
You play with my world
Like it's your little toy
You put a gun in my hand
And you hide from my eyes
And you turn and run farther
When the fast bullets fly

Like Judas of old
You lie and deceive
A world war can be won
You want me to believe
But I see through your eyes
And I see through your brain
Like I see through the water
That runs down my drain

You fasten the triggers
For the others to fire
Then you set back and watch
When the death count gets higher
You hide in your mansion
As young people's blood
Flows out of their bodies
And is buried in the mud

You've thrown the worst fear
That can ever be hurled
Fear to bring children
Into the world
For threatening my baby
Unborn and unnamed
You ain't worth the blood
That runs in your veins

How much do I know
To talk out of turn
You might say that I'm young
You might say I'm unlearned
But there's one thing I know
Though I'm younger than you
Even Jesus would never
Forgive what you do

Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good
Will it buy you forgiveness
Do you think that it could
I think you will find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never buy back your soul

And I hope that you die
And your death'll come soon
I will follow your casket
In the pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I'll stand o'er your grave
'Til I'm sure that you're dead

Volgens mijn telling..

1649 Bonnie 'Prince' Billy - Nomadic revery (All around)

Een onvoorstelbare tranentrekker, afkomstig van zijn album 'I see a Darkness' uit 1999. Helaas niet volledig in dit filmpje, maar niettemin de beste versie online...



oday was one where, lost in thought
I really feel I am
losing not an ounce of what
you see in me, my lamb

if you're not with me tomorrow
that would be the worst
I'm glad I dream of what I dream of
today a thing was burst

o all around
o all around
it's kept together moving all around

my brain it beams, it's here at all
and living, I must work
to make our lives here justified
and not let trouble lurk

instead of seeing monkeys biting
I lay on the ground
while my hectic travelling partner
wandered all around

chorus

o all around a left buttock
and all around a right
all around your every curve
I'm going to go tonight
but only hold me, hold me
all the city's on me
and all their wish to scold me
and lay their hands upon me
so only hold me, hold me
and I'll return't you baby
I just need an evening
with someone nice to hide me

1647 Beach Boys - California girls

Naast The Kinks zijn er meerdere acts die zeker niet mogen ontbreken. The Beach Boys bijvoorbeeld. Deze relatief recente live-versie van Brian Wilson geeft aan waarom...



Well east coast girls are hip
I really dig those styles they wear
And the southern girls with the way they talk
They knock me out when Im down there

The mid-west farmers daughters really make you feel alright
And the northern girls with the way they kiss
They keep their boyfriends warm at night

I wish they all could be california
I wish they all could be california
I wish they all could be california girls

The west coast has the sunshine
And the girls all get so tanned
I dig a french bikini on hawaii island
Dolls by a palm tree in the sand

I been all around this great big world
And I seen all kinds of girls
Yeah, but I couldnt wait to get back in the states
Back to the cutest girls in the world

I wish they all could be california
I wish they all could be california
I wish they all could be california girls

I wish they all could be california
(girls, girls, girls yeah I dig the)
I wish they all could be california
(girls, girls, girls yeah I dig the)
I wish they all could be california
(girls, girls, girls yeah I dig the)
I wish they all could be california
(girls, girls, girls yeah I dig the)
