435: Dire Straits - Walk of life



Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies
Be-Bop-A-Lula, Baby What I Say
Here comes Johnny singing I Gotta Woman
Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay
He got the action, he got the motion
Yeah, the boy can play
Dedication devotion
Turning all the night time into the day
He do the song about the sweet lovin' woman
He do the song about the knife
He do the walk, he do the walk of life

Here comes Johnny and he'll tell you the story
Hand me down my walkin' shoes
Here come Johnny with the power and the glory
Backbeat the talkin' blues
He got the action, he got the motion
Yeah, the boy can play
Dedication devotion
Turning all the night time into the day
He do the song about the sweet lovin' woman
He do the song about the knife
He do the walk, he do the walk of life

Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies
Be-Bop-A-Lula, Baby What I Say
Here comes Johnny singing I Gotta Woman
Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay
He got the action, he got the motion
Yeah the boy can play
Decidation devotion
Turning all the night time into the day
And after all the violence and double talk
There's just a song in the trouble and the strife
You do the walk, you do the walk of life

433: King Crimson - Starless



Sundown dazzling day
Gold through my eyes
But my eyes turned within
Only see
Starless and bible black

Ice blue silver sky
Fades into grey
To a grey hope that oh years to be
Starless and bible black

Old friend charity
Cruel twisted smile
And the smile signals emptiness
For me
Starless and bible black

431: Genesis - Land of confusion



I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street.

Now did you read the news today
They say the danger's gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight
Burning into the night.

Too many men
Too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see
This is a land of confusion.

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in.

Superman where are you now
Everything's gone wrong somehow
The men of steel, men of power
Are losing control by the hour.

This is the time
This is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go round
Tell me why, this is a land of confusion.

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in.

I remember long ago -
When the sun was shining
The stars were bright
All through the night
And the sound of your laughter
As I held you tight
So long ago -

I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know, we'll never keep.

Too many men
Too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see
This is a land of confusion.

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for.

This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing
Just where our lives are going to.

430 The Castaways- Liar, Liar

429 OutKast - Hey Ya!

"The song's unusual arrangement drew comparisons to artists from a variety of genres. Pitchfork Media referred to it as the apex of the album and added that it successfully mixed Flaming Lips-style instrumentation with the energy of Prince's 1983 single "Little Red Corvette". Subsequently, Pitchfork Media gave it the number two slot in its "The Top 100 Singles of 2000-2004" feature in January of 2005, bested only by OutKast's own "B.O.B.". Blender described it as a mix of soul music by Ike Turner and New Wave music by Devo and later as an "electro/folk-rock/funk/power pop/hip-hop/neo-soul/kitchen sink rave-up". Rolling Stone compared André 3000's vocals to those of "an indie-rock Little Richard" and the backing arrangement to The Beatles' 1969 album Abbey Road, later including the song in its 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. New York also likened it to The Beatles and found it to be one of the best singles of 2003. Allmusic described it as an "incandescent" mix of electro, funk, and soul music."

428: Valensia - Gaia



Valensia - Gaia
I guess we all believe and pray in a different way
I know He has many names
I`m sure that-all in all-it stays the same
...All comes out one day

We`re all afraid that day might not be so far away
If we want to live here and stay
Better not let Gaia wash us away
She`s got rules we must obey

A-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha the World has always judged itself
when it comes to crimes-I know
A-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha who is going to judge The
Earth when a crime has been done by the world...
All by the world itself, yeah...

I know you still dream of harmony
...and I guess I`ll just dream on with you

We`re nothing but a lonely crowd

Gaia, Gaia... Where do we go
Why do you go, and leave me alone
Gaia, Gaia... I want you to know...
I couldn`t save you all on my own
Gaia....

Bury us all under ice

World, calm down...take five, `cause you lost the
meaning of Life
So many ways to survive
Millions of chances more than meets the eye
...Life could be so nice (Hear the bird of Greenpeace sing)

We`re so far we even can`t wage a war no more
Even the moon would be gone
Who would be left over to say:"We Won"
...Back, to where it all began

Bomb+Dumb= Going To Die
All living on a Lie
...The rub-a-dub into the night
Who is going to live, Who is going to die
Our youth has a few words to say
Maybe they know we wiped their future away
Could be they`re got nothing to say
Maybe they don`t know whether they are going to
stay, or not
I know they`ve got ONE thing to say

We all want a better place, but Gaia let it go,
let it go...
Whatever we do, chances are few: every way leads
to heaven
Whatever we do, chances are few: every way leads
to heaven
Whatever we do, chances are few

We need a hand from above

Oh Oh, Gaia...What are we living for
Oh Oh, Gaia...What are we living for

She is going to die

Unless......

Rainbow - Stargazer



High noon
Oh I'd sell my soul for water
Nine years' worth
Of breakin' my back
There's no sun in the shadow of the wizard
See how he glides
Why he's lighter than air
Oh I see his face

Where is your star
Is it far, Is it far, is it far
When do we leave
I believe, yes, I believe

* In the heat and the rain
With whips and chains
Just to see him fly
So many die

We built a tower of stone
With our flesh and bone
Just to see him fly
Don't know why
Now where do we go

Hot wind moving fast across the desert
We feel that our time has arrived
The world spins while we put his wing together
A tower of stone to take him straight to the sky
Oh I see his face

Where is your star
It is far, is it far, is it far
When do we leave, yeah
I believe, I believe

*

All eyes see the figure of the wizard
As he climbs to the top of the world
No sound as he falls instead of rising
Time standing still
Then there's blood on the sand
Oh I see his face

Where was your star
Was it far, was it far
When did we leave
We believe, we believe, we believe

In the heat and rain
With whips and chains
To see him fly
So many die
We built a tower of stone
With out flesh and bone
To see him fly
But why, it don't rain
With all our chains,
Did so many die
Just to see him fly
Look at my flesh and bone
Now look, look, look, look
Look at this tower of stone
I see a rainbow rising
Look there on the horizon
And I'm coming home
Coming home, I'm coming home

Time is standing still
He gave me back my will
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Going home
I'm going home
My eyes are bleeding
And my heart is weeping
We still hope, we still hope, oh
Take me back
He gave me back my will
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Going home
I'm going home
My eyes are bleeding
And my heart is weeping
We still hope, we still hope, oh

Take me back, take me back
Back to my home, oh, oh...

426: The Flower Kings - Stardust we are







Part I

Look for no tears in my eyes
Sing me no sweet lullaby
I made myself a heart out of stone, that I can call my own

Remember the days of the shoreline
The sun made the surfers go blind
Once, painfully trapped between childhood and fame
Now that's my name

Someone please tear down the walls of this room
Don't leave me deaf-dumb in this silent cocoon
I gave my soul freely for a place in the sun
I know that I'm not the only one

Shadow flies, dead end of fame
Them neon lights spelling my name
Fear the day when light goes out
What's it all about?

The dust that once came to my eyes, suddenly left me unwise
Painfully trapped between childhood and fame
Now, it's a shame

Astray like a leaf in the rapids of time
Once touch the stars, then back to the grind
Back to the level where humans thread
mploded back into the head...

Someone please tear down the walls of this room
Don't leave me deaf-dumb in this silent cocoon
I gave my soul freely for a moment of truth
Like a servant and knight to boot
...see me, touch me, feel me, will I live forever
Hold me, teach me, thrill me, in your love forever


Part II

Let me guide you to a world unknown
Kiss the frog and kiss the lizards throne

See them crawling out of dusty holes
Ghosts of yesterday, now twice as bold
Set the wheels in motion once again
Flames they change, the empires remain

Dare I dream of better days to come
Have I precious statements still undone
Will you follow me to stars unknown, or will I end up traveling alone

Let me guide you to a world unknown
Kiss the frog and kiss the lizards throne
Teach me, tell me, will I live forever...?


Part III

Now see how we fly to heavenly high
Swimming the ocean and spin' the stars
And so the great net will fall apart
So don't forget the human touch,
The word of mouth
This roundabout, we love so much,

Now see how our thoughts are running free
Run for leader and semi God
And once again we pay in blood
So don't forget the human trial,
The cry of love, the spark of life, dance thru the fire

Stardust we are
Close to divine
Stardust we are
See how we shine

Sailed the sea, the moon and the stars
Built this window beneath the pool
Lend a hand to a drowning fool
See them saviours come so cheap
We lose our touch and down we go into the deep

Drivin' down the memory lane
Dusty dreams of a fading sun
Remember how the horses run
We played the stars, we walked the moon
We burnt the rope, laid down the gun

Stardust we are
Close to divine
Stardust we are
See how we shine

Stardust we are
Close to divine
Stardust we are
See how we shine

424: Spock's Beard - The Great Nothing









The Great Nothing

I: From Nowhere

II: One Note

One note timeless
Came out of nowhere
It wailed like the wind and night
It sought no glory
It added no meaning
Not even a reason why

No thought
No need to say something
No message to sell
It played without a buzz or a showing
Out of the great nothing
It came without fail

One man with his mind full
Trying to get somewhere
He thought, "Man this thing could fly!"
He had good intentions, even some feeling
He thought, "Lord, I've got to try ..."

No thought
He had to say something
His message would sell
He got a buzz without knowing
Into the great nothing
The boy slipped and fell

III: Come Up Breathing

Come up breathing
Up from the water
Man, he was so submerged
Where's the feeling?

It must be way under
Far from the spoken word

No, no - no corporate ladder
No hometown parade
The fat cats just keep getting fatter
What does it matter
The thing must be played .....

One note timeless .......

Don't let the buzz get you down
Don't lose your memory or you'll sink fast and drown
But you can't seem to sleep for the thoughts in your mind
Since you can't stand to think you have one hell of a time
Hanging with submergers you drink yourself blind
You think it's fine
You've got time ......

IV: Submerged

The boy has got potential
But he's never had commercial success
There's flies in his ointment
There's Stuyvesants and liquor on his breath
We'll have him charge the gate
We'll have to set him straight
We'll have him seal his future fate
Before it's too late

I worked with him closely
It must have been ten years ago
Of all the pains in the asses
He's the worst
I've had the bad taste to know
He's undirectable
Completely uncoachable
But perhaps we can put him
In an altered state
Before it's too late

V: Missed Your Calling

See the writing on the wall
Once the man who had it all
You threw it all away, look around and nothing's left
You've got nothing to forget
No golden yesterday

'Cause you missed your calling
You could have lived up in the sky
You missed your calling every time

Watch the lady throw the rune
Have her come up to your room
She comes from Montreal
There's no limelight only line
And Tequila's made you blind
It's time to lose it all

'Cause you missed your calling
You could have lived up in the sky
You missed your calling one more time

The boy has got potential
But he'll never have commercial success
We gave him good direction
But he always thought that he knew what's best
We tried to set him straight
His calls will have to wait
We tried to change his future fate
But now it's too late

Something keeps telling quiet now, quiet now - quiet now
Mother says quiet down, quiet down - quiet down .........

VI: The Great Nothing

One note timeless
Came out of nowhere
Just when all hope was gone
And nothing matters
But that it's breathing
It ends as it has begun

No thought
No need to say something
No message to run
From the ashes
Out of the great nothing
Without a buzz or a showing
Out of the great nothing
With nobody knowing
It plays on and on ...

Soulwax - Saturday



saturday, oh saturday
how cruel of you to go away
you turn us on and you don't even have the decency to stay
we think that we're so cool
and make the others drool
walking like a chameleon

turn around and turn me on and make that sound you do so well 'cause
I'm not dancing i'm just shifting weight
I thought that you could tell
we think that we're so cool
and make the others drool
talking like a chameleon

SOMETIMES love KILLS TIME
IT JUST MIGHT TONIGHT
neon claws and drama queens agree to like the local band
everyone is smoking filter cigarettes all over again
we think that we're so cool
and make the others drool
walking like a chameleon

SOMETIMES love KILLS TIME
IT JUST MIGHT TONIGHT

422: Blackmore's Night - Locked within the crystal ball



Here in the spotlight this moment is ours
No one can stop us, we're one with the stars

I feel the waves begin to rise
Far across the ocean deep within your eyes.
Silently watching as they fall
I can see the future locked within the crystal ball..

Strike up the lightening, hear my call
Feel the light electric dancing through the air
Here by the ancient castle wall
Can you see the future locked within the crystal ball..

Here in the Spotlight This Moment is ours, No one can stop us we're one with The Stars..

Quiet by nature, standing tall
cold stone circles, they have seen it all
Caught like a ghost from yesterday, shadows down the hall
Are locked within the crystal ball...

Fire, water, earth and sky
Mysteries surround us, legends never die!!
They live for one moment, lost in time, I can hear them call
They're locked within the crystal ball...

I feel the waves begin to rise
Far across the ocean deep within your eyes
Silently watching as they fall
I can see the future locked within the crystal ball...

Ja sorry hoor, maar dit topic heet toch FOK!s eigen Top 2000. Niet die van 2 personen. En dan kun je wel gaan zeuren dat anderen moeten posten, maar als jullie er intussen al weer 10 tussen hebben geplaatst, heeft dat niet echt veel invloed meer

Wat maakt dat uit???
We zijn nog zo goed om op elkaar te wachten We hadden ook 100 nummers achter elkaar kunnen posten.
moeten er soms 10 posts tussen zitten ofzo? Dan is de lijst in 2012 nog niet af

Als er meer mensen plaatsten, zouden wij niet de kans hebben er zoveel tussen te plaatsen...

Ja dus? Het is geen snelheidswedstrijd. Moet wel een beetje een gedachte achter zitten, anders kunnen we inderdaad binnen een paar dagen klaar zijn maar hebben we een lijst van niks.

Lenny Kravitz - Mr Cab Driver



Mr. Cab Driver won't you stop to let me in
Mr. Cab Driver don't you like my kind of skin
Mr. Cab Driver you're never gonna win

Mr. Cab Driver won't stop to pick me up
Mr. Cab Driver I might need some help
Mr. Cab Driver only thinks about himself

Mr. Cab Driver
Mr. Cab Driver

Mr. Cab Driver don't like the way I look
He don't like dreads he thinks we're all crooks
Mr. Cab Driver reads too many story books

Mr. Cab Driver pass me up with eyes of fire
Mr. Cab Driver thinks we're all 165'ers
Mr. Cab Driver fuck you I'm a survivor

Let me in

Mr. Cab Driver
Mr. Cab Driver
