Arlo Guthrie - City of New Orleans (1972)



Illinois Central Monday morning rail
Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders,
Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail.
All along the southbound odyssey
The train pulls out at Kankakee
Rolls along past houses, farms and fields.
Passin' trains that have no names,
Freight yards full of old black men
And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles.

[Chorus]
Good morning America how are you?
Don't you know me I'm your native son,
I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans,
I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done.

Dealin' cards with the old men in the club car.
Penny a point ain't no one keepin' score.
Won't you pass the paper bag that holds the bottle
Feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor.
And the sons of Pullman porters
And the sons of engineers
Ride their father's magic carpets made of steel.
Mothers with their babes asleep,
Are rockin' to the gentle beat
And the rhythm of the rails is all they dream.

[Chorus]

Nighttime on The City of New Orleans,
Changing cars in Memphis, Tennessee.
Half way home, we'll be there by morning
Through the Mississippi darkness
Rolling down to the sea.
And all the towns and people seem
To fade into a bad dream
And the steel rails still ain't heard the news.
The conductor sings his song again,
The passengers will please refrain
This train's got the disappearing railroad blues.

Good night, America, how are you?
Don't you know me I'm your native son,
I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans,
I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done.

London Grammar - Wasting My Young Years (2013)



You crossed this line
Do you find it hard to sit with me tonight?
I've walked these miles but I've walked 'em straight lined
You'll never know what was like to be fine

I'm wasting my young years
It doesn't matter
I'm chasing old ideas
It doesn't matter

Maybe…
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years
Maybe…
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years

Don't you know that it's only fear
I wouldn't worry, you have all your life
I've heard it takes some time to get it right

I'm wasting my young years
It doesn't matter
I'm chasing old ideas
It doesn't matter

Maybe…
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years
Maybe…
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years

I don't know what you are
Don't leave me hanging on
Don't know what you are
Don't leave me hanging on.

Lorde - Royals (2013)



I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
And I'm not proud of my address
In the torn up town, no post code envy
But every song's like:
Gold teeth
Grey Goose
Tripping in the bathroom
Bloodstains
Ball gowns
Trashing the hotel room
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
But everybody's like:
Crystal
Maybach
Diamonds on your timepiece
Jet planes
Islands
Tigers on a gold leash
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair
And we'll never be royals (royals)
It don't run in our blood
That kind of lux just ain't for us, we crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler (ruler)
You can call me queen bee
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
Let me live that fantasy
My friends and I we've cracked the code
We count our dollars on the train to the party
And everyone who knows us knows
That we're fine with this, we didn't come from money
But every song's like:
Gold teeth
Grey Goose
Tripping in the bathroom
Bloodstains
Ball gowns
Trashing the hotel room
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
But everybody's like:
Crystal
Maybach
Diamonds on your timepiece
Jet planes
Islands
Tigers on a gold leash
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair
And we'll never be royals (royals)
It don't run in our blood
That kind of lux just ain't for us, we crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler (ruler)
You can call me queen bee
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
Let me live that fantasy
ooh ooh oh ooh
We're better than we've every dreamed
And I'm in love with being queen
ooh ooh oh ooh
Life is great without a care
We aren't caught up in your love affair
And we'll never be royals (royals)
It don't run in our blood
That kind of lux just ain't for us, we crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler (ruler)
You can call me queen bee
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
Let me live that fantasy.

Άλκηστις Πρωτοψάλτη - Το χειροκρότημα (1987)



Κι είμαστε ακόμα ζωντανοί
στη σκηνή σαν ροκ συγκρότημα.

Με κοιτάς σε κοιτώ
και μετά σιωπή
κάτι θα κοπεί
στην καρδιά στο μυαλό.

Με κοιτάς σε κοιτώ
και μελαγχολείς
ο καιρός πολύς
μ’ αγαπάς σ’ αγαπώ.

Κι είμαστε ακόμα ζωντανοί
στη σκηνή σαν ροκ συγκρότημα
κι αν μας αντέξει το σκοινί
θα φανεί στο χειροκρότημα.

Με κρατάς σε κρατώ
και μετά γκρεμός
και μετά το τέρμα
και κανείς κανενός.

Με κρατάς σε κρατώ
και παντού σκιές
και παντού καθρέφτες
για θεούς κι εραστές.

Daft Punk - Get Lucky ft. Pharrell Williams (2013)



[Verse 1: Pharrell]
Like the legend of the phoenix
All ends with beginnings
What keeps the planet spinning
The force from the beginning

[Hook: Pharrell]
We've come too far
To give up who we are
So let's raise the bar
And our cups to the stars
She's up all night 'til the sun
I'm up all night to get some
She's up all night for good fun
I'm up all night to get lucky
We're up all night 'til the sun
We're up all night to get some
We're up all night for good fun
We're up all night to get lucky (x5)

[Verse 2: Pharrell]
The present has no ribbon
Your gift keeps on giving
What is this I'm feeling?
If you want to leave, I'm wit' it

[Hook]

[Bridge: Daft Punk]
We’re up all night to get (x4)
We’re up all night to get back together
We’re up all night (let’s get back together!)
We’re up all night to get funky
We’re up all night to get lucky
We’re up all night to get lucky (x8)

[Hook]

[Outro x4]
We're up all night to get lucky

The Nits - Three Sisters (1998)




Da da da da...

Mother bought a jacket for the rain
With a capuchin
Lightning strikes an aeroplane in a dream
Sister talks about hello and goodbye
Passing 'The Anger and The Hope'
Frightened by the world

She said the angel takes your soul away
She changed the darkness in the light of the day
Sister takes her bear to the zoo
To the elephant and the little bird blue
Frightened by the world

Love is a room full of strangers
Love is a suitcase filled with danger
Frightened by the world

Mother where are you
Father where are you
We can never find our home anymore

Three sisters in the back of the room
Three sisters hand in hand at the zoo
Frightened by the world

Da da da da...

Mother where are you
Father where are you
And we can never find our home anymore

Three sisters in the back of the room
Three sisters hand in hand at the zoo
Frightened by the world
Three sisters in the back of the room
Three sisters hand in hand at the zoo
Frightened by the world
By the world
By the world
By the world
By the world

Carrie Underwood - Blown Away (2012)



Dry lightning cracks across the skies
Those storm clouds gather in her eyes
Her daddy was a mean old mister
Mama was an angel in the ground
The weather man called for a twister
She prayed blow it down

There's not enough rain in Oklahoma
To wash the sins out of that house
There's not enough wind in Oklahoma
To rip the nails out of the past

[Chorus:]
Shatter every window 'til it's all blown away,
Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away
'Til there's nothing left standing, nothing left of yesterday
Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,
Blown away

She heard those sirens screaming out
Her daddy laid there passed out on the couch
She locked herself in the cellar
Listened to the screaming of the wind
Some people call it taking shelter
She called it sweet revenge

[Chorus:]
Shatter every window 'til it's all blown away,
Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away
'Til there's nothing left standing, nothing left of yesterday
Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,
Blown away

There's not enough rain in Oklahoma
To wash the sins out of that house
There's not enough wind in Oklahoma
To rip the nails out of the past

Shatter every window 'til it's all blown away (blown away)
Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away (blown away)
'Til there's nothing left standing, nothing left of yesterday (blown away)
Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,

Blown away, blown away, blown away, blown away, blown away.

Gary Moore - You Know My Love (2006)


(by Willie Dixon)

Now, time has passed
And much has gone.
But this love in my heart
Has lingered on.
When I get worried,
I sneak away and cry.

You know my love,
You know my love,
You know my love
Has never died.

You've gone and tried so many things
To pacify your mind.
You'll even get merry
Tryin' to have a good time.
But all you do,
You will never rest.
You're gonna fill your life
Full of emptiness.

And when you're down and out
You'll need a home.
You're gonna need a friend,
And find that he's gone.
Cause when I get worried,
I sneak away and cry.

You know my love,
You know my love,
You know my love
Has never died.

Justin Timberlake - Don't Hold The Wall (2013)



[Hook: Timbaland]
Dance, don't hold the wall
Dance, don't, don't, don't hold the wall
Dance, dance, don't hold the wall
Da-da-dance, don't hold the wall

[Verse 1: Justin Timberlake]
C'mon on the floor with them legs,
It's getting down but I'll get up,
Cause I heard you tell your girlfriends that I deserve better,
Well, I think you look better
But you're so far, I had to go get ya'

[Bridge]
Take you to the light,
It's dark in the back
You started movin', you put an arch in your back
Closer to me, closer to me
Sippin' your drink and you're getting closer to me
Dance in the light, startin' to see
You started moving, you're getting closer to me
And now you won't even let me go

[Hook 2: Justin Timberlake & Timbaland]
So baby hold on,
Dance, don't hold the wall
Let it go,
Dance, don't, don't, don't hold the wall
Baby hold on,
Da-da-dance, don't hold the wall

T: Dance, (What you do to me?)
Dance, don't, don't, don't, hold the wall
Dance, dance, (What you do to me?)
Da-da-dance, don't hold the wall

[Hook 1]

[Verse 2]
I think I heard what you said
He's not what you thought and you're fed up
I heard your girlfriend tell you, you could do better,
Well, I'm the best ever
But you're so far, I had to come get ya'

[Bridge]

[Hook 2]

[Bridge: Justin Timberlake]
Dance, don't hold the wall
Dance, don't hold the wall

[Hook 2]

[Bridge 2: Justin Timberlake x2]
C'mon the floor and dance,
It's getting down but I'll get up

[Hook 3: Justin Timberlake x2]
C'mon and dance,
C'mon baby dance with me
Take my hand,
Get on the floor
C'mon baby dance with me
Please don't hold the wall
Please don't hold the wall tonight
We're gonna do it all,
So please don't hold the wall tonight

[Outro: Justin Timberlake & Timbaland]
J: Where you running to?
Where you running to?
T: Don't hold the wall
J: Hey, where you running to?
T: Dance, don't hold the wall

Dance, don't hold the wall
Dance, don't hold the wall.

Deep Purple - All The Time in The World (2013)



There's still a long way to go
And the nights are closing in
But if I travelled any faster babe
Lord knows where I might have been

Right from those early days
I put my faith in the axle not the wheels
Like old Zeno's toytus
With Achilles snapping at my heels

Don't worry
There's no hurry
Here we are
With all the time in the world

I could have been a high-flying dealer
But I have no desire for speed
I could have been a wild receiver
But I've got everything I need

And so I watch the world
Go racing by tearing up the street
I lay back in the long grass
Take it easy and rest my feet

Don't worry
You know, there's no hurry
Here we are
With all the time in the world

No-one ever held me back
You know that no-one ever put me in chains
No-one ever saw me racing ahead
No-one had to tug on my reins

As everybody knows
I may be slow but I never quit
Sometimes on a good day I sit and think
Sometimes I just sit

Don't worry
Relax, there's no hurry
Here we are
With all the time in the world.

Billie Holiday - All of Me (1941)



All of me
Why not take all of me
Can't you see
I'm no good without you

Take my lips
I want to loose them
Take my arms
I'll never use them

Your goodbye
Left me with eyes that cry
How can I go on dear without you

You took the part
That once was my heart
So why not take all of me

All of me
Why not take all of me
Can't you see
I'm no good without you

Take my lips
I want to loose them
Take my arms
I'll never use them

Your goodbye
Left me with eyes that cry
How can I go on dear without you

You took the best
So why not take the rest
Baby, take all of me .

Gary Clark, Jr. - Bright Lights (2010)



Wake up in New York City
Lying on the floor
Just outside of Marcy's - West 54 ?wow?
You gonna know my name by the end of the night ?well?
You gonna know my name by the end of the night ?well?

Bright lights, big city going to my head
Bright lights, big city going to my head
Bright lights, big city going to my head
I don't care no, no
Cause you don't care

Start up with the bottle
End it up with the bottle
Taking shots, waiting for tomorrow
Trying to fill up, was hollow
You gonna know my name
You gonna know my name

Bright lights, big city going to my head
Bright lights, big city going to my head
Bright lights, big city going to my head
I don't care no, no
Cause you don't care

Get lost in this city trying to find myself
I woke up with different versions
Came down somebody else
I know it ain´t right
But its song in my head
Wow I'm surprised
I'm still alive I should breathe in

Bright lights, big city going to my head
Bright lights, big city going to my head
Bright lights, big city going to my head
I don't care no, no
You don't care

You gonna know my name
You gonna know my name
You gonna know my name
You gonna know my name by the end of the night, well?

Ten Years After - I'm Coming On (1970)



May be right, or may be wrong
But I gotta do something before the day is gone
Could be small, or could be big
But I gotta do something that I can dig
May be good, or may be bad
But I gotta do something or I'm going mad
May be cool, or may be hot
But I gotta do something I need a lot

Oh baby, don't cry, don't dry, don't cry
You shouldn't do that


I'm coming on
Well, baby, I'm coming on
Yeah, babe, I'm coming on
Babe, babe, I'm coming, I'm coming...

Eric Clapton - Gotta Get Over (2013)



Ο Eric Clapton έκανε το unofficial, official χρησιμοποιώντας τη τεχνική των ερασιτεχνών για τη παρουσίαση της νέας κυκλοφορίας του. Αυτό σημαίνει μετάλλαξη με την καλή έννοια.

Verse 1:
Can you feel a wind blowing
Got me talking to myself
One more day, one more truth, got to find out where
Feel the blow of the river taking me there
Good Lord only get you so far,
Then you got to help yourself
I don’t need no reason, reason to hang my head
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsty.com/eric-clapton-gotta-get-over-lyrics.html ]
Chorus:
Cause I gotta get over
Get on over to the good side
Lord I gotta get over
Get over, you get a lil’ closer
I gotta get over
Getting closer to the good side
Gotta get over
Getting over, over

Verse 2:
I’ve been breaking like the waves upon the sand
You know I need some fortitude, gonna keep it close at hand
And I gotta shake it if I’m gonna break it on down the line
Ain’t nobody can help me if I stay helpless all the time

Chorus:
I gotta get over
Get on over to the good side
Gotta get over
Help me get a little closer
I gotta get over
Getting closer to the good side
Lord I gotta get over,
Getting over, over

Ten Years After - I'd Love to Change the World (1971)





Everywhere is freaks and hairys
Dykes and fairies
Tell me where is sanity?

Tax the rich, feed the poor
Till there are no, rich no more

I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you-ooo-ooo

Population, keeps on breedin'
Nation bleedin', still more feedin'
Economy

Life is funny, skies are sunny
Bees made honey, who needs money?
Monopoly

I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you-you-ooo

Oh, yeah!

More pollutions, there's no solutions
Restitution, mass confusions

Spread the word
Rich or poor
Save the earth
Stop the war

I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you-ooo-ooo, woo-ooo
Woo-ooo-ooo-ooo.

Alabama Shakes - Be Mine (2012)



All the world can't hold a candle to you
Cause' all the world is in the dark
I'll tell you why I'm so sure
Ooh! I took a shine to you

And all them ladies can't change your mind
And all them girls can't turn your head
And all them lions in the jungle at night
I don't worry 'bout my baby

Cause I know why I don't worry
I sing me no sad songs
Happy! Never sad for long
Don't you call me anything doll, but your baby
I know...

All them girls might wanna rip us apart
If they wanna fight, they done fucked with the wrong heart
They got another thing comin'
Or I'll be a dead woman

Oh, and I would do all that for you
I'd do it for you

Cause all them girls don't know you like I do
All them girls don't know you like I do
all them ladies don't know you like I do
That's why I call you my baby

So be mine
So be my baby
Just say alright
Forever and alright.

Από τις 4 στις 5 - 50 χρόνια Eric Burdon


Eric Burdon - When I Was Young (1967)

Την Εκπομπή μπορείτε να την ακούσετε εδώ:
Και να την κατεβάσετε εδώ

===================================================================

The rooms were so much colder then
My father was a soldier then
And times were very hard
When I was young, when I was young
I smoked my first cigarette at ten
And for girls I had a bad yen
And I had quite a gall
When I was young

When I was young it was more important
They'd more pain but they laughed much louder yeah
When I was young, when I was young

I met my first love at thirteen
She was brown and I was pretty green
And I learned quite a lot
When I was young, when I was young

When I was young it was more important
They'd more pain but they laughed much louder yeah
When I was young, when I was young

My faith was so much stronger then
I believed in fellow man
And I was so much older then
When I was young, when I was young
When I was young, when I was young
When I was young, when I was young.

Joan Baez - Diamonds & Rust (1975)



I'll be damned
Here comes your ghost again
But that's not unusual
It's just that the moon is full
And you happened to call
And here I sit
Hand on the telephone
Hearing a voice I'd known
A couple of light years ago
Heading straight for a fall

As I remember your eyes
Were bluer than robin's eggs
My poetry was lousy you said
Where are you calling from?
A booth in the midwest
Ten years ago
I bought you some cufflinks
You brought me something
We both know what memories can bring
They bring diamonds and rust

Well you burst on the scene
Already a legend
The unwashed phenomenon
The original vagabond
You strayed into my arms
And there you stayed
Temporarily lost at sea
The Madonna was yours for free
Yes the girl on the half-shell
Would keep you unharmed

Now I see you standing
With brown leaves falling around
And snow in your hair
Now you're smiling out the window
Of that crummy hotel
Over Washington Square
Our breath comes out white clouds
Mingles and hangs in the air
Speaking strictly for me
We both could have died then and there

Now you're telling me
You're not nostalgic
Then give me another word for it
You who are so good with words
And at keeping things vague
Because I need some of that vagueness now
It's all come back too clearly
Yes I loved you dearly
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
I've already paid.

Foxygen - San Francisco (2013)



Up in the San Francisco where the forest meets the bridge
I thought I saw you standing there and then you fell onto the rails
But that was many years ago and I am so much older now
My brother is a soldier now
I can't see them anyhow, I moved up in the wind
And you swimming up tide or just to the hand radio stations

I left my love in San Francisco
That's okay, I was bored anyway
I left my love in the room
That's okay, I was born in L.A.

I left my love in San Francisco
That's okay, I was bored anyway
I left my love in the field
That's okay, I was born in L.A.

And we're restricting on this field
That Jesus came from Israel
Isaac followed the sacred cow
So not to wake us, sparrow splashing mud

But that was many years from now
And I hope from here on now
That I'll always seem to want to shout
Your eyes are like a cup of tea and sending into the sun with me

You swimming upstream or just tuning into new sensations
I was broken and we're broken

I left my love in San Francisco
That's okay, I was bored anyway
I left my love in the room
That's okay, I was born in L.A.

I left my love in San Francisco
That's okay, I was bored anyway
I left my love in the field
That's okay, I was born in L.A.

Yo La Tengo - Ohm (2013)



Sometimes the bad guys come out on top
Sometimes the good guys lose
We try not to lose our hearts, not to lose our minds

Sometimes the bad days maintain their grip
Sometimes the good days fade
But the rain today hurts the head to dream

But nothing ever stays the same
Nothing's explained
The higher we go, the longer we fly
Cause this is it for all we know
So say good night to me
And lose no more time, no time
Resisting the flow

I heard you calling from far away
I thought I heard you cry
Having the voice to make it right
So I just cry

I felt her slipping, slipping away
Before I could even see
Tried once more, lost my grip, you were gone

But nothing ever stays the same
Nothing's explained
The longer it takes, the looser the ties
Cause this is it for all we know
So say good night to me
And lose no more time, no time
Resisting the flow

Doo doo doo doo

But nothing ever stays the same
Nothing's explained
The stronger the wind, the faster we'll fly
Cause this is it for all we know
So say good night to me
And lose no more time
No time

Resisting the flow
Resisting the flow
Resisting the flow
Resisting the flow
Resisting the flow
Resisting the flow
Resisting the flow
Resisting the flow
Resisting the flow
Resisting the flow
Resisting the flow
Resisting the flow.

Björk - Come to Me (1993)





Come to me
I'll take care of you
Protect you
Calm, calm down
You're exhausted
Come lie down
You don't have to explain
I understand

You know
That I adore you
You know
That I love you.
So don't make me say it
It would burst the bubble
Break the charm.

Jump off
Your building's on fire
And I'll catch you, I'll catch you
Destroy all that is keeping you down
And then i'll nurse you
I'll nurse you
I'll protect you

You know
That I adore you
You know
That I love you.
So don't make me say it
It would burst the bubble
Break the charm.
