MAGIC
Mick Smiley

Empty woods, endless tunes
You see me, I see you
In a crowd, see my face
I love you
Take my hand and walk with me
Love you do will always be
Anything can come true
If you believe belive it will
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic - magic - magic
I'm here for you, that's what you said
I never felt like this with woman, any woman
Strangers meet, strangers dream
Some call it love, I call it magic
Now I'm in you and it feels so right
So hold on, hold on tight
Yes its true
I believe, believe in you
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic, magic, magic
I believe it's magic
I believe its magic
I believe it's magic, magic, magic
My baby told me once
My baby told me twice
My baby told me three times
Three times nice
"Please - please - please - let's make some"
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic, magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic, magic
Magic, magic
Turned my hand and walked with me
She said "I'll tell you Mickey, I do believe
In the power of love, your magic wand's
The thing that makes me sing this song"
Please - please - please
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic
Magic
Magic, magic

AMHRÁN NA bhFIANN
Sinne Fianna Fáil atá faoi gheall ag Éireann,
Buíonn dár slua thar tionn do ráinig chughainn
Faoi mhóid bheith saoir, seantír ar sinsear feasta
Ní fhágfar faoin tiorán ná faoin tráil;
Anocht a théann sa bhearna baoil,
Le gean ar Ghaeil chun báis nó saoil,
Le gunna-scréach, faoi lámach na bpiléar,
Seo libh canaig Ámhrán na bhFiann.

Seo dhaoibh, a chairde, duan Óglaigh.
Caithréimeach, bríomhar, ceolmhar,
Ár dtintne cnámh go buarach táid,
S an spéir go mín réaltógach;
Is fonntchar faobhrach sinn chun gleo,
S go tiunmhar glé roimh thíocht don ló,
Faoi chiúnas caomh na hoíche ar seol,
Seo libh, canaig Ámhrán na bhFiann.

Prachtig toch...

Queen
Love Of My Life

Love of my life - you hurt me,
You broken my heart and now you leave me.
Love of my life can't you see,
Bring it back, bring it back,
Don't take it away from me, because you don't know, what it means to me.

Love of my life don't leave me,
You've stolen my love, you now desert me,
Love of my life can't you see,
Bring it back, bring it back,
Don't take it away from me because you don't know - what it means to me.

You won't remember -
When this is blown over
And everything's all by the way -
When I get older
I will be there by your side to remind you how I still love you - still love you.

Back - hurry back,
Don't take it away from me,
because you don't know what it means to me - Love of my life
Love of my life...

By Golly, lad, that sounde more like Arabian ta me!

Other side of the river (Life of Agony)

There's blood on the floor
And you're not even moving
Don't really know if it's mine or yours
But you ain't moving
Eyes are wide as you grin at me
You know there's a place that you'd rather be
But if you should die and I survive
How could I go on knowing that I'm still alive
Here breathing
There's a beast that's living deep within me
Forcing me to feed all my needs
Yeah he's in me
And brought us here to end our fears
To wave goodbye to all of the tears
To start a new life on the other side of the river
Well my world would be over
Hold on, Hold on, I won't be long
Wait for me, man, I won't be long
You were such in a rush to reach the other side
Look at yourself with that look in your eye
Smiling wide and pre-occupied with that river
Well my world would be over.

Geweldig

Alleen Keith Caputo is nu een beetje weg dus er is nix meer van ze over

A Change Of Seasons (23:06)
Mike Portnoy
I. The Crimson Sunrise
instrumental
II. Innocence
I remember a time
My frail, virgin mind
watched the crimson sunrise
Imagined what it might find
Life was filled with wonder
I felt the warm wind blow
I must explore the boundaries
Transcend the depth of winter's snow
Innocence caressing me
I never felt so young before
There was so much life in me
Still I longed to search for more
But those days are gone now
Changed like a leaf on a tree
Blown away forever
into the cool autumn breeze
The snow has now fallen
and my sun's not so bright
I struggle to hold on
with the last of my might
In my den of inequity
viciousness and subtlety
struggle to ease the pain
struggle to find the sane
Ignorance surrounding me
I've never been so filled with fear
All my life's been drained from me
The end is drawing near....
III. Carpe Diem
"Carpe diem, seize the day"
I'll always remember
The chill of November
The news of the fall
The sounds in the hall
The clock on the wall ticking away
"Seize the Day"
I heard him say
Life will not always be this way
Look around
Hear the sounds
Cherish your life while you're still around

"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-flying;
And this same flower that smiles today,
Tomorrow will be dying."

We can learn from the past
But those days are gone
We can hope for the future
But there might not be one
The words stuck in my mind
alive from what I've learned
I have to seize the day
To home I returned
Preparing for her flight
I held with all my might
Fearing my deepest fright
She walked into the night
She turned for one last look
She looked me in the eye

I said, "I Love You...Good-bye"
"It's the most awful thing you'll ever hear."
"If you're lying to me..."
"Oh, you dearly love her."
"...just have to leave... all our lives."
"Sieze the day!"
"Something happened."
"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may."
"She was killed."

IV. The Darkest of Winters
instrumental
V. Another World
So far or so it seems
All is lost with nothing fulfilled
Off the pages and the T.V. screen
Another world where nothing's true
Tripping through the life fantastic
Lose a step and never get up
Left alone with a cold blank stare
I feel like giving up
I was blinded by a paradise
Utopia high in the sky
A dream that only drowned me
Deep in sorrow, wondering why
Oh come let us adore him
Abuse and then ignore him
No matter what, don't let him be
Let's feed upon his misery
Then string him up for all the world to see
I'm sick of all you hypocrites
holding me at bay
And I don't need your sympathy
to get me through the day
Seasons change and so can I
Hold on Boy, No time to cry
Untie these strings, I'm climbing down
I won't let them push me away
Oh come let us adore him
Abuse and then ignore him
No matter what, don't let him be
Let's feed upon his misery
Now it's time for them to deal with me
VI. The Inevitable Summer
instrumental
VII. The Crimson Sunset
I'm much wiser now
A lifetime of memories
run through my head
They taught me how
for better or worse, alive or dead
I realize there's no turning back
Life goes on the offbeaten track
I sit down with my son
Set to see the Crimson Sunset
(Gather ye rosebuds while ye may)
Many years have come and gone
I've lived my life, but now must move on
(Gather ye rosebuds while ye may)
He's my only one
Now that my time has come
Now that my life is done
We look into the sun
"Seize the day and don't you cry,
Now it's time to say good-bye
Even though I'll be gone,
I will live on, live on."

jaja weet het ...ben een klootzak

Kippevel bij:

Over de muur - Klein Orkest

Oost-Berlijn, unter den Linden:
Er wandelen mensen langs vlaggen en vaandels.
Waar Lenin en Marx nog steeds op een voetstuk staan.

En iedereen werkt, hamers en sikkels,
Terwijl in parade-pas de wacht wordt gewisseld.
40 Jaar socialisme er is in die tijd veel bereikt...

Maar wat is nou die heilstaat,
Als er muren omheen staan?
Als je bang bent, voorzichtig met je mening moet omgaan?
Ach, wat is nou die heilstaat, zeg mij wat is ie waard,
Wanneer iemand die afwijkt voor gek wordt verklaard?

Ref.
En alleen de vogels vliegen van Oost- naar West-Berlijn.
Worden niet truggefloten, ook niet neergeschoten.
Over de muur, over het IJzeren Gordijn,
Omdat ze soms in het westen soms ook in het oosten willen zijn.
Omdat ze soms in het westen soms ook in het oosten willen zijn.

West-Berlijn: de Kurfurstendamm!
Er wandelen mensen langs porno en peepshow.
Waar Mercedes en Cola, nog steeds op een voetstuk staan.

En de neonreclames, die glitterend lokken:
Kom dansen! Kom eten! Kom zuipen! Kom gokken!
Dat is nou 40 jaar vrijheid, er is in die tijd veel bereikt...

Maar wat is nou die vrijheid, zonder huis, zonder baan?
Zoveel Turken in Kreuzberg die amper kunnen bestaan.
Goed... je mag demonstreren, maar met je rug tegen de muur
En alleen als je geld hebt, dan is de vrijheid niet duur.

Ref.
En de vogels vliegen van West- naar Oost-Berlijn.
Worden niet truggefloten, ook niet neergeschoten.
Over de muur, over het IJzeren Gordijn,
Omdat ze soms in het oosten soms ook in het westen willen zijn.
Omdat er brood ligt soms bij de Gedachtniskirche, soms op het Alexanderplein!

Duran Duran - Driveby

It was the hottest day in July and all along Santa Monica boulevard
Cars were stood still and a gleaming metal tube
Would stretch all the way from Highland back to La Brea
And she met under the Los Angeles sunshine
A young man was sitting at the wheel on his way to make a pickup
Turned off the air-con, rolled down the window and began to sweat
Out over the hollywood hills he saw the clouds building like great dark towers of rain
Ready to come tumbling down any day now not a day too soon any day now
And as the music drifted in from other cars his eyes started to slip
This is the story of his dream (sing blue silver)
Sing, sing blue silver this is the story of his dream
This is the story of his dream

Tim Buckley
Song to the Siren:
Long afloat on shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
'Til your singing eyes and fingers
Drew me loving to your isle
And you sang
Sail to me
Sail to me
Let me enfold you
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you hare when I was fox?
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken lovelorn on your rocks,
For you sing, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow:
O my heart, O my heart shies from the sorrow"

I am puzzled as the newborn child
I am troubled at the tide:
Should I stand amid the breakers?
Should I lie with Death my bride?
Hear me sing, "Swim to me, Swim to me, Let me enfold you:
Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you"

Bob Dylan:
Baby, You Been On My Mind
Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flat,
uncoverin' the crossroads I am standin' at,
or maybe it's the weather or somethin' like that,
But baby you've been on my mind.
I am not asking you to say words like yes or no
please understand me, I've got no place for you to go.
I'm just breathin' to myself pretending not that I don't know,
Baby, you've been on my mind.

Even though my mind is hazy and my thoughts they might be narrow
where you been, don't bother me or bring me down in sorrow.
It don't even matter to me where you're wakin' up tomorrow,
Baby, you've been on my mind.

When you wake up in the mornin' baby look inside your mirror
you know I won't be next to you, you know I won't be near.
I'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear,
As someone who has had you on his mind.

No one in the world
Ever had a love as sweet as my love
For nowhere in the wolrd
Could there be a boy as true as you love
All my love
I give gladly to you
All your love
You give gladly to me
Tell me why then
Oh why should it be that

We go on hurting each other
We go on hurting each other
Making each other cry
Hurting each other
Without ever knowing why

Close than the leaves
On a weepin' willow, baby, we are
Closer dear are we
Than the simple letters "A" and "B" are
All my life
I could love only you
All your life
You could love only me
Tell me why than
Oh why should it be that

We go on hurting each other
We go on hurting each other
Making each other cry
Hurting each other
Without ever knowing why

Can't we stop hurting each other
Gotta stop hurting each other
Making each other cry
Breaking each other's heart
Tearing each other apart

Heroin

I don't know just where I'm going
But I'm gonna try for the kingdom, if I can
'Cause it makes me feel like I'm a man
When I put a spike into my vein
And I'll tell ya, things aren't quite the same
When I'm rushing on my run
And I feel just like Jesus' son
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know
I have made the big decision
I'm gonna try to nullify my life
'Cause when the blood begins to flow
When it shoots up the dropper's neck
When I'm closing in on death
And you can't help me now, you guys
And all you sweet girls with all your sweet talk
You can all go take a walk
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know
I wish that I was born a thousand years ago
I wish that I'd sail the darkened seas
On a great big clipper ship
Going from this land here to that
In a sailor's suit and cap
Away from the big city
Where a man can not be free
Of all of the evils of this town
And of himself, and those around
Oh, and I guess that I just don't know
Oh, and I guess that I just don't know
Heroin, be the death of me
Heroin, it's my wife and it's my life
Because a mainer to my vein
Leads to a center in my head
And then I'm better off and dead
Because when the smack begins to flow
I really don't care anymore
About all the Jim-Jim's in this town
And all the politicians makin' crazy sounds
And everybody puttin' everybody else down
And all the dead bodies piled up in mounds
'Cause when the smack begins to flow
Then I really don't care anymore
Ah, when the heroin is in my blood
And that blood is in my head
Then thank God that I'm as good as dead
Then thank your God that I'm not aware
And thank God that I just don't care
And I guess I just don't know
And I guess I just don't know

the car's on fire and there's no driver at the wheel
and the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicides
and a dark wind blows
the government is corrupt
and we're on so many drugs
with the radio on and the curtains drawn

we're trapped in the belly of this horrible machine
and the machine is bleeding to death

the sun has fallen down
and the billboards are all leering
and the flags are all dead at the top of their poles

it went like this:

the buildings tumbled in on themselves
mothers clutching babies picked through the rubble
and pulled out their hair

the skyline was beautiful on fire
all twisted metal stretching upwards
everything washed in a thin orange haze

i said: "kiss me, you're beautiful -
these are truly the last days"

you grabbed my hand and we fell into it
like a daydream or a fever

we woke up one morning and fell a little further down -
for sure it's the valley of death

i open up my wallet
and it's full of blood

Honestly OK (Dido)

I just want to feel safe in my own skin
I just want to be happy again
I just want to feel deep in my own world
But I'm so lonely I don't even want to be with myself anymore

On a different day
If I was safe in my own skin
Then I wouldn't be lost and so frightened
But this is today and I'm lost in my own skin
And I'm so lonely I don't even want to be with myself anymore

I just want to feel safe in my own skin
I just want to be happy again

Juste une prière avant d'obéir
A l'ordre des choses et de nos pères
Avant de partir

Juste une autre vie sauvée de l'oubli
Gravée bien mieux que par une lame
Dans la mémoire d'Abraham

Longue l'attente de l'heure
Lourde la peine en nos coeurs
Mais si grands notre amour notre foi en toi
Et difficile de te comprendre parfois

Que sera demain nos destins plus loin?
Un peu de paix d'amour et de pain
Au creux de tes mains

Longue l'attente de l'heure
Lourde la peine en nos coeurs
Mais si grands notre amour notre foi en toi
Et difficile de te comprendre parfois

Conduis nos enfants pour la fin des temps
Remplis de plus de joies que de larmes
La mémoire d'Abraham

5) Betonpaolties

As ik op de fietse zit
Dan wöl ik graag rechtdeur
Dan wil ik snel op huus an
Weg van dat gezeur
Ik rie dan zönder licht
Want dat red ja niet zo zwaor
n onverwacht obstaokel
daorin skuult dan het gevaor
wie hef die dingen daor neer zet
wat hef dat veur n nut

betonpaolties, betonpaolties
betonpaolties, betonpaolties bennen kut!!

En toen kwam dus de dag
Dat ik ze nie ontweek
Ik klapte op zon kutpaol
Zo as later bleek
De dokter zee:
potdomme keerl,
hoe krie j t toch veur mekaar
dit heb ik nog nooit zien
dit komp nooit weer klaor!
Wie hef die dingen daor neerzet
Wat hef dat veur n nut!

Ik vreug mie toen dus af
Wie hef die weg bepaald
Ik heb n doktersrekening
Die is nog nie betaald
k had alle botten breuken
k lag n maond an n infuus
en bovendien leup ik ok nog
n half jaor bij huus

muse - unintended

You could be my unintended
choice to live my life extended
you could be the one i'll always love
you could be the one who listens
to my deepest inquisitions
you could be the one i'll always love
i'll be there as soon as i can
but i'm busy mending broken peices
of the life i had before
first there was the one
who challenged all my dreams
and all my balance
she could never be as good as you
you could be my unintended choice
to live my life extended
you should be the one i'll always love
i'll be there as soon as i can
but i'm busy mending broken peices
of the life i had before
i'll be there as soon as i can
but i'm busy mending broken peices
of the life i had before

Blink 182 - Adam's song

I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest, who'd have known?
I traced the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all

I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine, I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone

I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside

The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait 'til I got home
To pass the time in my room alone

I never thought I'd die alone
Another six months, I'll be unknown
Give all my things to all my friends
You'll never step foot in my room again

You'll close it off, board it up
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault

I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside

The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait 'til I got home
To pass the time in my room alone

I never conquered, rarely came
Tomorrow holds such better days
Days when I can still feel alive
When I can't wait to get outside

The world is wide, the time goes by
The tour is over, I've survived
I can't wait 'til I get home
To pass the time in my room alone

Eigenlijk een beetje apart omdat het nogal afgezaagd is ("I reach to the sky, And call out your name, And if I could trade, I would" is een beetje crapy zin) maar Gone Away van The Offspring raakt mij echt.

volledige tekst:

Maybe in another life
I could find you there
Pulled away before your time
I can't deal it's so unfair

And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it feels
Yeah it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that you've gone away

Leaving flowers on your grave
Show that I still care
But black roses and Hail Mary's
Can't bring back what's taken from me
I reach to the sky

And call out your name And if I could trade
I would

And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it stings
Yeah it stings now
The world is so cold Now that you've gone away
