whoooooooooooooo ooooooo ooooooo

You'll remember me when the west wind moves

Among the fields of barley

You'll can tell the sun in his jealous sky

As we walk in fields of gold

So she took her love

For to gaze awhile

Among the fields of barley

In his arms she fell as her hair came down

Among the fields of gold

Will you stay with me, will you be my love

Among the fields of barley

And you can tell the sun in his jealous sky

When we walk in fields of gold

I never made promises lightly

And there have been some that I've broken

But I swear in the days still left

We'll walk in fields of gold

We'll walk in fields of gold

I never made promises lightly

And there have been some that I've broken

But I swear in the days still left

We'll walk in fields of gold

We'll walk in fields of gold

Many years have passed since those summer days

Among the fields of barley

See the children run as the sun goes down

As you lay in fields of gold

You'll remember me when the west wind moves

Among the fields of barley

You can tell the sun in his jealous sky

When we walked in fields of gold

When we walked in fields of gold

When we walked in fields of gold

song "Fields Of Gold" by Eva Cassidy

Nah.... Sorry Khall... I've been listening to that eva cassidy song *and that firsat post mortem disc of hers for over six years and hardly ever anymore, it gets worse and worse every time I hear it. Highly over-rated singer *albeit with some vocal talent) and highly capitalising little bastards whoever cashed in on her death in the name of good causes... Oh! Theres a surprise.

The bats are in the belfry

the dew is on the moon

where are the arms that held me

and pledged her love before

and pledged her love before

running through the graveyard

we laughed my friends and I

we swore we'd be together

until the day we'd die

until the day we'd die

I made a golden promise

that we would never part

I gave my love a locket

and then I broke her heart

and then I broke her heart

It's such a sad old feeling

the fields are soft and green

it's memories that I'm stealing

but your innocent when you dream

when you dream

You're innocent when you dream

Tom Waits

One min it goes a bit like this...

A lovestruck romeo sings a streetsus serenade

Laying everybody low with me a lovesong that he made

Finds a convenient streetlight steps out of the shade

Says something like you and me babe how about it ?

Juliet says hey it’s romeo you nearly gimme a heart attack

He’s underneath the window she’s singing hey la my boyfriend’s back

You shouldn’t come around here singing up at people like that

Anyway what you gonna do about it ?

Juliet the dice were loaded from the start

And I bet and you exploded in my heart

And I forget the movie song

When you wanna realise it was just that the time was wrong juliet ?

Come up on differents streets they both were streets of shame

Both dirty both mean yes and the dream was just the same

And I dreamed your dream for you and your dream is real

How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals ?

Where you can fall for chains of silver you can fall for chains of gold

You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold

You promised me everything you promised me think and thin

Now you just says oh romeo yeah you know I used to have a scene with him

Juliet when we made love you used to cry

You said I love you like the stars above I’ll love you till I die

There’s a place for us you know the movie song

When you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong juliet ?

I can’t do the talk like they talk on tv

And I can’t do a love song like the way it’s meant to be

I can’t do everything but I’d do anything for you

I can’t do anything except be in love with you

And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be

All do is keep the beat and bad company

All I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme

Julie I’d do the stars with you any time

Juliet when we made love you used to cry

You said I love you like the stars above I’ll love you till I die

There’s a place for us you know the movie song

When you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong juliet ?

A lovestruck romeo sings a streetsus serenade

Laying everybody low with me a lovesong that he made

Finds a convenient streetlight steps out of the shade

Says something like you and me babe how about it ?

Then the next, it's more like this...

I'm the firestarter, twisted firestarter...

Smack my B*tch up!!!!

Just Jesting! I´m a Klown you see.

Not really a song that influenced me, partly cos it´s quite new, but, definitly concur... Don´t you drag me down, said the cynical Klown. :D

Artist: Jack Johnson

Album: Brushfire Fairytales

Title: Flake

I know she said it's alright

But you can make it up next time

I know she knows it's not right

There ain't no use in lying

Maybe she thinks I know something

Maybe maybe she thinks it's fine

Maybe she knows something I don't

I'm so, I'm so tired, I'm so tired of trying

It seems to me that maybe

It pretty much always means no

So don't tell me you might just let it go

And often times we're lazy

It seems to stand in my way

'Cause no one, no not no one

Likes to be let down

I know she loves the sunrise

No longer sees it with her sleeping eyes

And I know that when she said she's gonna try

Well it might not work because of other ties and

I know she usually has some other ties

And I wouldn't want to break 'em, nah, I wouldn't want to break 'em

Maybe she'll help me to untie this but

Until then well, I'm gonna have to lie too

It seems to me that maybe

It pretty much always means no

So don't tell me you might just let it go

And often times we're lazy

It seems to stand in my way

'Cause no one, no not no one

Likes to be let down

It seems to me that maybe

It pretty much always means no

So don't tell me you might just let it go

The harder that you try baby, the further you'll fall

Even with all the money in the whole wide world

Please please please don't pass me

Please please please don't pass me

Please please please don't pass me by

Everything you know about me now baby you gonna have to change

You gonna have to call it by a brand new name

Please please please don't drag me

Please please please don't drag me

Please please please don't drag me down

Just like a tree down by the water baby I shall not move

Even after all the silly things you do

Please please please don't drag me

Please please please don't drag me

Please please please don't drag me down

:o

Nice one Kayo. You might like this one.

Flogging Molly from the album Swagger, song Far Away Boys.

Well I worked on the railroad for t'pence a day,

drank down one penny the other I'd save.

I hammered and I hammered for God knows how long,

well into to maddness with each setting sun.

I puy my head down and I dreamt you were here

with me by the old tree where no one would care.

Far away boys, far away boys, away from ya now,

I'm lying with my sweetheart in her arms I'll be found.

Then the sun belched upon me you were no longer here,

lyin' in your place was my hammer and my gear

So, I stamped out the fire that kept us both warm

The ashes were fallin' like the snow drops of old.

We came to a mountain, dynamite and she'll blow

a big hole in the rock like the one in my soul.

Far away boys, far away boys, away from ya now,

I'm lyin' with my sweetheart in her arms I'll be found.

We buried four workmen they dug themselves well.

Four empty coffins to four early graves.

They're only paddys just paddys

don't dig them too deep,

you'll need all your strengh boys and they're replaced easily.

With the heat I was melting into your sweet lips.

Ah you kiss takes me back takes me back from all this.

Far away boys, far away boys, away from ya now,

I'm lyin' with my sweetheart in her arms I'll be found.

Someone said it was Christmas, but not a tree was in sight

The only thing that was grownin' was my will to die.

Till the gaffer said men your work here is done.

I said I'll see you in h3ll on that train we died for.

Never again will I smell your sweet dream

but a pissed stained ol' gutter where your lips used to be.

Far away boys, far away boys, away from ya now,

I'm lyin' with my sweetheart in her arms I'll be found.

Nice one... Reminds me a bit of

Driving The Last Spike

In the early 1800's, large groups of mainly unskilled labourers built

England's Railways. The cost in human terms alone was very high ...

Leaving my family behind me

not knowing what lay ahead

waving goodbye, as I left them in tears

remembering all we'd said

I looked to the sky, I offered my prayers

I asked Him for guidance and strength

but the simple beliefs of a simple man

lay in His hands, and on my head

I gave everything that they wanted

but still they wanted more

we sweat and we toiled

good men lost their lives

I don't think they knew what for

I sold them my heart

I sold them my soul

I gave everything I had

but they couldn't break my spirit

my dignity fought back,

fightback

can you hear me

can you see

Don't you hear me

don't you see

We worked in gangs for all we were worth

the young boys pulling the wagons

we were digging the tunnel, shifting the earth

it was then that it happened.

No-one knew how the cracks appeared

but as it fell they all disappeared

stone fell like rain

Can an you hear me,

Can you see

Don't you hear me

Can you breathe

The smoke cleared, the dust it settled

No one knew how many had died

all around there were broken men

they'd said it was safe, they'd lied

you could hear the cries, you could smell the fear

but good fortune that day was mine

and it occurred to me that the heart of a good man

it seems is hard to find.

Can you hear me,

can you see

Don't you hear me

don't you see

We worked, how we worked like

the devil for our pay

through the wind, through the snow,

through the rain

Blasting, cutting through Gods country like a knife

sweat stinging my eyes, there has to be a better life

But I can hear my children cry

I can see the tears in their eyes

memories of those I've lft behind

still ringing in my ears

Will I ever go back again

Will I ever see her face again

I'll never forget the night

As they waved goodbye to their fathers

We came from the South,

we came from the North

with picks and with spades

and a new kind of order

showing no fear of what lies up ahead

They'll never see the likes of us again

Driving the last spike,

lifting and laying the track

with blistering hands,

the sun burning your back

But I can hear my children cry

I can see the tears in their eyes

memories of those I've lft behind

still ringing in my ears

I will always remember that night,

As they waved goodbye to their fathers

We followed the rail, we slept under the stars

digging in darkness, living with danger

showing no fear of what lies up ahead

they'll never see the likes of us again

The writer and singer of the band is from Ireland and he came here and formed the band. We had in the US very much the same thing and in the west coast the Chinese did all the hard work, but back east it was all the Irish. So, maybe it was for both?

Here's something to lighten the mood.

Penis Song (The Not Noel Coward Song)

Isn't it awfully nice to have a penis,

isn't frightfully good to have a dong?

It's swell to have a stiffy.

It's divine to own a d1ck.

From the tiniest little tadger,

to the worlds biggest prick.

So, three cheers for your Willy

or John Thomas.

Hooray, for your one-eyed trouser snake.

Your piece of pork, your wife's best friend,

your percy or your cock,

you can wrap it up in ribbons,

you can slip it in your sock.

But don't take it out in public

or they will stick you in the dock,

and you won't come back.

Eric Idle :o

De la sierra del Cerro

un riachuelo bajaba

le llaman La Canal

y estaba lavando trapos

en invierno secaba

sus manos coloras

Canastita en la cadera

la lleva

cantando va

Camino de piedra y barro

caminaba

al viento su pelo

Canastita en la cadera

la lleva

cantando va

In the mountain range of Cerro

a stream was running down

it is known as La Canal

She was washing up the clothes

during winter she dry her red

hands off

She wear the basket in her hips

singing all the way through

The path is muddy and full of stones

she walks on it

her hair moved by the wind

She wear the basket in her hips

singing all the way through

La Canal- Radio Tarifa

One of the sweetest songs I have ever listened... :o

Hey, Kayo go and watch Monty Python's Meaning Of Life. That song is in there and the movie is great.

Hybrid Rainbow by The Pillows from the Fooly Cooly Soundtrack. Translated from Japanese.

It's an almost sinking uninhabited island.

It's not on the globe and it doesn't even have a name.

Although a ship of hope sailed near us yesterday,

it wasn't here to pick us up.

We held up,

although we held up the prism,

which gazed in rapture upon the sun and burned.

Can you feel?

Can you feel that hybrid rainbow?

Although we didn't get selected until yesterday,

we are waiting for tomorrow.

Our almost deflated airship is floating near the ground.

The form of the color that we confused to call,

it'll probably be picked by the birds without hesitation.

Can you feel?

Can you feel that hybrid rainbow?

It's definitely not here yet.

The limit of endurance is not here.

Can you feel?

Can you feel that hybrid rainbow?

We want to believe it is only half-way here.

I can feel.

I can feel that hybrid rainbow.

Although we didn't get selected until yesterday

we are waiting for tomorrow.

The Reflecting God-Marilyn Manson

Your World is an ashtray

we burn and coil like cigarettes

the more you cry the more your ashes turn to mud

It's the nature of the leeches,

the virgin's feeling cheated.

You've only spent a second of your life.

My world is unaffected,

there is an exit here.

I say it is and then it's true.

There is a dream inside and dream,

I am wide awake the more I sleep,

you'll understand when I'm dead.

Let's jump upon the sharp swords

and cut away our smiles,

without the threat of death

there's no reason to live at all.

My world is unaffected,

there is an exit here.

I say it is and then it's true.

There is a dream inside a dream,

I am wide awake the more I sleep,

you'll understand when I'm dead.

I went to God just to see

and I was looking at me.

Saw heaven and hel_l were all lies,

when I'm God everyone dies.

Scar, can you feel my power?

Shoot here and the world gets smaller.

Scar, scar can you feel my power?

One shot and the world gets smaller.

No salvation, no forgiveness.

Rainy Night In Georgia

Words and Music by Tony Joe White

Classic version sung by Gladys Knight and the Pips.

Hoverin' by my suitcase, tryin' to find a warm place to spend the night

Heavy rain fallin', seems I hear your voice callin' "It's all right."

A rainy night in Georgia, a rainy night in Georgia

It seems like it's rainin' all over the world

I feel like it's rainin' all over the world

Neon signs a-flashin', taxi cabs and buses passin' through the night

A distant moanin' of a train seems to play a sad refrain to the night

A rainy night in Georgia, such a rainy night in Georgia

Lord, I believe it's rainin' all over the world

I feel like it's rainin' all over the world

How many times I wondered

It still comes out the same

No matter how you look at it or think of it

It's life and you just got to play the game

<instrumental interlude>

I find me a place in a box car, so I take my guitar to pass some time

Late at night when it's hard to rest I hold your picture to my chest and I feel fine

(minor scat) But it's a rainy night in Georgia, baby, it's a rainy night in Georgia I

feel it's rainin' all over the world, kinda lonely now And it's rainin' all over the

world

Oh, have you ever been lonely, people?

And you feel that it was rainin' all over this man's world

You're talking 'bout rainin', rainin', rainin', rainin', rainin', rainin', rainin',

rainin', rainin' rainin', rainin', rainin' <etc. to end>

An absolute classic.

redrus

Ps; can you hear me sing it people, can you hear me sing....? :o

I dont really know Gladys, but we've talked having to sit next to each other at a couple of events. Shes a nice lady

I liked Brook Benton's version better. Tony Joe produced my best friends band first album. Wasn't commercially sucessful, but had some good texas blues rock/ ballads type songs on it. Doesn't matter, we're still friends after 40 years. He's still a musician, and I'm still trying to grow up.

Most of what I like tends to be obscure or not really commercial, and as for what I listen too depends on the mood as I'm rather ecleptic in music as well as in life.

A tree grows in my backyard, it only grows at night

Its branches are all twisted and its leaves are afraid of light

They say the blues is just a bad dream

They say it lives upside your head

But when its lonely in the morning

Your bound to wish you lying stonecold dead

James Taylor "The Blues Is Just a Bad Dream"

The lunatic is on the grass

The lunatic is on the grass

Remembering games and daisy chains and laffs

You got to keep the loonies on the path

The lunatic is in the hall

The lunatics are in my hall

The paper holds their folded faces to the floor

And everyday the paperboy brings more

And if the dam breaks many years too soon

And if theres no room upon the hill

And if your head explodes with dark forbodings too

I'll see you on the dark side of the moon

The lunatic is in my head

The lunatic is in my head

You raise the blade, you make the change

You rearrange me till I'm sane

You lock the door

You throw away the key

Theres someone in my head,but its not me

And if the cloud bursts

Thunder in your ear

You shout and no one seems to hear

And if the band your in starts playing different tunes

I'll see you on the dark side of the moon

Pink Floyd "Brain Damage"

Now this was really commercial, but it always picks me up

Saw them at Tampa stadium 1973 on the Darkside tour. Was a bit under the weather after having 4 wisdom teeth pulled that day and somewhat under the influence of the pain medication I was taking. I hit a curb and blew out a couple of tires and dented the rims so I had to call my roommates girl friend to take me and the lady I was going with to the stadium. I had backstage passes so I regret having had oral surgery that morning, but found a place to the side of a stage monitor to sit and enjoy the show. It was almost a religious experience, maybe the pain medication had something to do with that, but a weird day and beautiful day all in all.

I grew up in an era when humorous songs were popular, and I've always liked them ie' One eyed one earred flying purple people eater, Does your chewing gum lost its flavor on the bedpost over night, My boomerang won't come back, Tan me hide when I'm dead fred etc

I can't keep typing out song lyrics and titles, but as with most people on planet music is very important to me

I can´t believe this has not yet been posted.

This song, for me, will NEVER die.

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony this life

Trying to make ends meet, you're a slave to the money then you die

I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down

You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah

No change, I can't change, I can't change, I can't change,

Why we now live abroad, right guys...?

but I'm here in my mold , I am here in my mold

But I'm a million different people from one day to the next

I can't change my mold, no, no, no, no, no

Well, I've never prayed,

But tonight I'm on my knees, yeah

I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah

I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind , I feel free now

But the airwaves are clean and there's nobody singing to me now

No change, I can't change, I can't change, I can't change,

but I'm here in my mold , I am here with my mold

And I'm a million different people from one day to the next

I can't change my mold, no, no, no, no, no

(Well have you ever been down?)

(I can't change, I can't change...)

(Ooooohhhhh...)

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony this life

Trying to make ends meet, trying to find some money then you die

I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down

You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah

You know I can't change, I can't change, I can't change,

but I'm here in my mold, I am here in my mold

And I'm a million different people from one day to the next

I can't change my mold, no,no,no,no,no

I can't change my mold, no,no,no,no,no

I can't change my mold, no,no,no,no,no

(It justs sex and violence melody and silence)

(It justs sex and violence melody and silence)

(I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down)

(It justs sex and violence melody and silence)

(I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down)

(Been down)

(Ever been down)

(Ever been down)(Lalalalalalaaaaaaaa...)

(Ever been down)

(Ever been down)

(Have you ever been down?)

(Have you ever been down?)

(Have you ever been down?)

LUCKY MAN

(Richard Ahscroft explains- Lucky Man)

"I think it's about discovering that you have a lot of love there, and, 'Ain't I a lucky man cos I've discovered it.' Usually, in life, you don't know what you have until it's gone. But sometimes it's about waking up whilst you have it unless it's too late. I think the interesting thing is the 'Oh, my, my' bit. It's like a narcotic rush, like an E rush or something.

"I'm not lying to people and saying the world is &lt;deleted&gt; and I never get anything out of it.' Sometimes you've got to have a laugh and embrace the good things in your life. You always have hope, and whatever you have in your life you can draw off it."

THE VERVE - Lucky Man, Lyrics

Happiness

More or less

It's just a change in me

Something in my liberty

Oh, my, my

Happiness

Coming and going

I watch you look at me

Watch my fever growing

I know just where I am

But how many corners do I have to turn?

How many times do I have to learn

All the love I have is in my mind?

Well, I'm a lucky man

With fire in my hands

Happiness

Something in my own place

I'm stood naked

Smiling, I feel no disgrace

With who I am

Happiness

Coming and going

I watch you look at me

Watch my fever growing

I know just who I am

But how many corners do I have to turn?

How many times do I have to learn

All the love I have is in my mind?

I hope you understand

I hope you understand

Gotta love that'll never die

Happiness

More or less

It's just a change in me

Something in my liberty

Happiness

Coming and going

I watch you look at me

Watch my fever growing

I know

Oh, my, my

Oh, my, my

Oh, my, my

Oh, my, my

Gotta love that'll never die

Gotta love that'll never die

No, no

I'm a lucky man

It's just a change in me

Something in my liberty

It's just a change in me

Something in my liberty

It's just a change in me

Something in my liberty

Oh, my, my

Oh, my, my

It's just a change in me

Something in my liberty

Oh, my, my

Oh, my, my

Well thats almost it anyway.

I used to sing this in my band. Quality tune.

Can I take you up on that redrus? You know my email :o:D

Also wondering if anybody has any Lennon solo stuff, and any cool funky groove stuff like what LJ and Khall have been introducing me to.

´(PS: LJ, Redrus, Khall, for some reason my gmail will not send any music, even when within the attachment confines. Can´t figure it out. Maybe I´m thick, but it just spends 5 minutes trying to send and then returns an error message.)
