I have been a huge fan of Yehuda Poliker for a long time. He has a Greek background, and you notice that in his music. I was doubtfull whether to post the following, cause it might be to politicized. The song is beautifull though. Perach (flower) is about children dying inwar

FLOWER

There, in the dust and the sky's blue
There's a section of peace
Sleep flower, sleep
Sleep little girl.

They took life from you
Oh, holy wars
Angels wept for you
With dry eyes.

Your smile, baby girl,
They buried in the ground
Oh how silence grows
From within the confusion.

Whoever pressed a trigger
Blood will stain his heart
In wars for justice
Children die too.

They took life from you...

There, in the dust and the sky's blue
There's a section of peace
Sleep flower, sleep
Sleep little girl.

They took life from you...

In your dream in the wind
rhyming with a melody
Sleep flower, sleep
Sleep little girl.


A happier song. The rock version of Kapa'im. The lyrics are quite simple, every should clap their hands. :lol:

I never knew what was meant by it, empty eyes. I have never seen it before, but recently I saw somebody with empty eyes with this glassy stare. It might sound exaggerated, but it was haunting. What do empty eyes signify? A broken soul? I don't know.

Tintinnabulum! it may be a made up language but what a fantastic name for an out of this world song, Karl Jenkins deserves a revisit every now and then and Adiemus is as good as he gets.

And then there were Talking Heads, Tower Records at the Junction of Edgware and Bayswater Road at Marble Arch in 1977, Psycho Killer was broadcast over the in store speakers at deafening levels and the base notes just stirred you up from the inside out, I still have the EP in Vinyl bought on that day!

Mad World, a brilliant song with brilliant lyrics.

The desert is very spiritual for me. I love to go with a jeep and just hike, sit on a top and just think about nothing, just feel and listen the freedom. This song reminds me of that. Desert Bird. Free as a desert bird, for the free spirits.

Flying Dutchman , Well you live and learn! I always thought REM sang this cover of the song, Gary Jules sounds so much like Michael Stipe it's uncanny!

This touches me everytime. For a long time I was kind of put off by George Michael. Probably because of this Wham period. With this song he shows what a true artist he is.

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
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?

Thanks Berrin, I like the last song, good lyrics.





Last week Panama in Amsterdam was closed down. I have many fun and good memories there. Panama was an icon. Bands performing and always a relaxed atmosphere with cool (alternative) people. I'll miss the place. One of the last performances:





An uncle died recently. This was the song on the funeral. I didn't know him that well. he was a diplomat and has seen the world and lived life. Afterwards I heard many stories where he helped people around him, but never took credit for it. A remarkable man, and I feel kind of sorry I didn't know him so well. He was different, and certainly did it his way.





Somebody send me this this morning:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99CEAtln ... re=related



Can you hear my call? Are you coming to get me now?
I've been waiting for you to come rescue me
I need you to hold all of the sadness I can not...
Live with inside of me

I'm crying out.
I'm backing down.
I am feeling it all.
Stuck inside these walls, tell me there is hope for me.
Is anybody out there listening?


Not if you screw people again and again.

I went to a wedding yesterday, it was a very long day, the ceremony was at midday and we partied till after midnight.
The bride and groom had their first dance to Wonderful Tonight. I'd forgotten how nice the words were.

We go to a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
That's walking around with me

And then she asks me, "Do you feel alright?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight"

I feel wonderful
Because I see the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you

We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs flow.
The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming!

Feeling nostalgic today for "the old days". You know when streets were for playing, you could wonder around the city the whole day and fair sharing was done without question. On Sunday you would climb in a tree to see your local football hero's play. You had a big mouth against the police as a kid, and the police just laughed it off.

Recently I noticed a generation gap when a pub was closing, lights went bright and an old classic was put on max. Half knew all the words and shouted along, the other half just stood there amazed, having no idea what this was about.

It's about a young kid. I could only sing half way, I had to explain my wet eyes away with saying I just had a very strong fisherman's friends. It's from an old movie and recently made a musical from it. The rat:

Now they say the streets are full with hate and dog poop.

Well thank you Nucleus. It is nice to listen to other people's choices, isn't it?

I don't know what happened to the one I thought I'd posted in my last link? I musn't have pressed submit or something. I'll post it again, it went something like this:

I'm having a duvet day today, ignoring the phone, the VAT and the housework and listening to my Ipod.

One man come in the name of love
One man come and go
one man come here to justify
One to overthrow

In the name of love
What more in the name of love?
U2 Pride. Bono at his finest.

A masterpiece of Maiden, 7th son of a 7th son. (air guitaring is allowed):



Might be going to a gay club tonight. Could be interesting, no? Lez friend says it's cool people, still really donot want a gay man groping me and I hope the lezzies are not the penis hater kind. I am still trying to convince a male friend to also come, so I am not the only hetero man around. Free entry for gays kissing or showing a tat, somehow that also gives free entrance :roll: . Have to catch up on gay music. Any other ideas?
