Tom Waits
It's over

You must have brought the bad weather with you
The sky's the colour of lead
All you've left me is a feather
On an unmade bed

It's always me whenever there's trouble
The world does nothing but turn
And the ring it fell off my finger
I guess I'll never learn



But it's over, it's over, it's over
I'm getting dressed in the dark
Our story ends before it begins
I always confess to everyone's sins
The nail gets hammered down
And it's over, let it go

So don't go and make a big deal out of nothing
Well it's just a storm on a dime
And I've always found there's nothing
That money can't buy
I've already gone to the place I'm going
There's no place left to fall
And there's something to be said
For saying nothing at all

And it's over, it's over, it's over
It's done forgotten and through
No one cares what it's all for
You'll be buried in the clothes
That you've never wore
So keep your suitcase by the door
It's over, let it go

No one cares what it's all for
You'll be buried in the clothes
That you never wore
So keep your suitcase by the door
It's over, let it go
You gotta let it go
Let it go, let it go​

Besonders gut an einem Sonntagmorgen mit Zeitumstellung !
Unvergessen und einzigartig: Rory Gallagher. Er hatte den Blues und ist leider viel zu früh an den Folgen des unten beschriebenen Stoffs in die ewigen Jagdgründe berufen worden...
Anyway :

Too much alcohol,

I went down on 31st Street,
To pick up a jug of alcohol,
Well, I went down on 31st Street,
To pick up a jug of alcohol.

Told the man to put in some water,
But he wouldn't put in a drop at all.

I was drinking my straight alcy,
And I went walking on down the street,
Well, I was drinking my straight alcy,
And I went walking on down the street.

Well, my eyes got so heavy,
I nearly fell half asleep.

Well, I like sherry brandy,
My baby sure like gin,
Well, that little girl I got,
Sure put me in the,
Spin I'm in.

Well, I went down on 31st Street,
To pick up a jug of alcohol.

Yeahhh....

I told the man to put in some water,
But he wouldn't put in a drop at all.

Whisky make me drowsey,
And gin can make you think,
Well, a common cold can kill ya,
But, my baby tell me to drink,

I went down on 31st Street,
To pick up a jug of alcohol,

I told the guy to put in some water,
But he wouldn't put in a drop at all,
One hundred per cent alcohol,
Well, let me have some.

Well, I like sherry and brandy,
My baby sure likes gin,
And that little girl I got,
Sure put me in,
The spin I'm in.

I went down on 31st Street,
To pick up, pick up a jug of alcohol,

I told the man to put in some water,
But he won't put in a drop at all.

Ninety one per cent,
Better make it ninety two,
Ninety three per cent,
Ninety four, that'll do,
Ninety five,
Ninety six,
Ninety seven per cent,
Ninetyeight,
Bartender that's ninety nine,
Make it one hundred per cent,
One hundred per cent,
One hundred per cent,
Wanna try some,
I wanna try some,
One hundred per cent,
Then I won't feel a thing at all

Unser Haus / Die Toten Hosen

Hab' ich zwanzig Jahre lang hier gewohnt in diesem stillen Haus,
in dem nur noch meine Mutter lebt und die Erinnerung verstaubt.
Sechs Kinder haben hier mal getobt,
immer bis mein Vater heimkam.
Und wenn er uns nicht schlug,
dann liebte er uns,
und dafür waren wir ihm dankbar.

Ich seh' das alles noch immer vor mir wie in einem Kinofilm.
Als wär es nie mein Leben gewesen,
als ob ich jemand anders bin.

Als Tom Sawyer und als Sherlock Holmes
sind wir hier durch die Gegend gerannt.
Wie oft haben wir uns mit Steinen beworfen
und schlossen Frieden schon am nächsten Tag.

Im Garten heimlich rauchen,
der erste Vollrausch mit acht Jahren
von 'ner halben Dose Altbier
an einem Sommernachmittag.

Hier hab' ich gelernt
zu lügen,
zu streiten und zu intrigieren,
zu vergeben und vergessen,
zu gewinnen und verlieren.

Es gab Enttäuschungen und Tränen,
obwohl ich meistens glücklich war
mit unserm kleinen Vorstadtleben
in unserer Nachbarschaft.

In diesem Haus fand ich meinen Vater
tot in seinem Bett.
Mir wurde klar,
als ich seine Hand hielt,
dass ich nicht auch hier sterben will.



Greetz,
Bernd

Lasciatemi cantare
con la chitarra in mano
lasciatemi cantare
una canzone piano piano
lasciatemi cantare
perché ne sono fiero
sono l'italiano
l'italiano vero

Buongiorno Italia gli spaghetti al dente
e un partigiano come Presidente
con l'autoradio sempre nella mano destra
un canarino sopra la finestra
Buongiorno Italia con i suoi artisti
con troppa America sui manifesti
con le canzoni, con amore,
con il cuore
con più donne sempre meno suore
Buongiorno Italia
buongiorno Maria
con gli occhi pieni di malinconia
buongiorno Dio
lo sai che ci sono anch'io

Lasciatemi cantare
con la chitarra in mano
lasciatemi cantare
una canzone piano piano
Lasciatemi cantare
perché ne sono fiero
sono l'italiano
l'italiano vero

Buongiorno Italia che non si spaventa
con la crema da barba da menta
con un vestito gessato sul blu
e la moviola la domenica in TV
Buongiorno Italia col caffe' ristretto
le calze nuove nel primo cassetto
con la bandiera in tintoria
e una 600 giù di carrozzeria
Buongiorno Italia
buongiorno Maria
con gli occhi pieni di malinconia
buongiorno Dio
lo sai che ci sono anch'io

Lasciatemi cantare

America - The Border

A burning bridge, a lonely highway
Another dark night thinking alone
What could've happened, am I just dreaming
It doesn't matter but there's one thing that I know

If I could make it to the border
If I could make it to the coast
If I could make it to the border
I'd be in the arms of the girl I love the most

Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Make it to the border

Shadow On The Wall (Roger Chapman)

Treat me like a prisoner,
Treat me like a fool.
Treat me like a loser,
Use me as a tool.
Face me 'til I'm hungry,
Push me in the cold.
Treat me like a criminal,
Just a shadow on the wall!

Shadow on the wall!
Like a shadow on the wall!

da geht doch noch was...

ich glaube die beste Musik lief immer schon in dörflich, holländischen Touri-Discos - ich muss mal nachdenken....
Gruß Saffetti

Aehm, holländisch, dörflich? The Shorts vielleicht mit Comment Ça va? Ok, das wäre dann aber definitiv der Tiefpunkt. Ich poste da keinen Text, die Hose zieh ich mir definitiv nicht an.

Wenn ich hier aus dem Fenster schau, denk ich, es ist Zeit etwas gute Laune zu verbreiten

Paolo Conte - Via con me

Via, via, vieni via di qui,
niente più ti lega a questi luoghi,
neanche questi fiori azzurri...
via, via, neanche questo tempo grigio
pieno di musiche
e di uomini che ti sono piaciuti...

It's wonderful, it's wonderful, it's wonderful,
good luck my babe,
it's wonderful, it's wonderful, it's wonderful,
I dream of you...
chips, chips, du-du-du-du-du

Via, via, vieni via con me,
entra in questo amore buio,
non perderti per niente al mondo...
via, via, non perderti per niente al mondo
lo spettacolo d'arte varia
di uno innamorato di te...

It's wonderful, it's wonderful, it's wonderful...

Via, via, vieni via con me,
entra in questo amore buio,
pieno di uomini...
via, entra e fatti un bagno caldo,
c'è un accappatoio azzurro,
fuori piove un mondo freddo...

It's wonderful, it's wonderful, it's wonderful...

Gnadenloses Bildrecycling.
Es muss ja mal weitergehen.
Der Letzte der Odenwälder Rock-Bastion hat den Blues und grüßt den Rest.

Canned Heat - Dark Clouds

Dark clouds, dark clouds follow me
Dark night, dark night is all I see
Man, I got these blues
Won't let a hold of me

Sometimes I dream of better days
Oh, from time to time, I dream of better days
Maybe it's just me
I gotta change my evil ways

Little Green Apples (The Temptations)

God didn't make little green apples
And it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime.
There's no such thing as Dr. Zeuss, Disneyland, and Mother Goose no nurs'ry rhyme.
God didn't make little green apples
And it don't rain in Indianapolis when the winter comes.
There's no such thing as make-believe, puppy dogs, and autumn leaves and B.B. guns.

Bob Dylan - Forever Young

May God bless and keep you always
May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others
And let others do for you
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young.

May you grow up to be righteous
May you grow up to be true
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you
May you always be courageous
Stand upright and be strong
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young.

May your hands always be busy
May your feet always be swift
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift
May your heart always be joyful
And may your song always be sung
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young.

Mal wieder was schwerst Romantisches ... (schluchz )


Slowdown Sundown / Steve Winwood

Sundown coming down too soon, no time to be alone
So I'll take a glass of memories and understand the blues
Oh they're the last thing you lose
Slowdown sundown, all I really need is time
For faded love songs and feelings in the wine
Let them take me down the line
Sunrise, a woman's eyes, good loving one warm afternoon
Here's to all the strong ones who don't care if they win
The kind I'll never see again
Slowdown, give me just a little while
It's not the darkness, it's just the night's so long
Puts the sadness in the song
Here's to someday when someone understands it
Why life keeps turning like a mad thing
Until that someday I'll just play what I have to play though I play it alone
Slowdown sundown, all I really need is time
For faded love songs and feelin
Let them take me down the line

Genesis / Home by The Sea

Creeping up the blind side, shinning up the wall
Stealing thru the dark of night
Climbing thru a window, stepping to the floor
Checking to the left and the right
Picking up the pieces, putting them away
Something doesnt feel quite right

Help me someone, let me out of here
Then out of the dark was suddenly heard
Welcome to the home by the sea

Coming out the woodwork, thru the open door
Pushing from above and below
Shadows but no substance, in the shape of men
Round and down and sideways they go
Adrift without direction, eyes that hold despair
Then as one they sign and they moan

Help us someone, let us out of here
Living here so long undisturbed
Dreaming of the time we were free
So many years ago
Before the time when we first heard
Welcome to the home by the sea

Sit down sit down
Sit down sit down sit down
As we relive our lives in what we tell you

Images of sorrow, pictures of delight
Things that go to make up a life
Endless days of summer longer nights of gloom
Waiting for the morning light
Scenes of unimportance, photos in a frame
Things that go to make up a life

Help us someone, let us out of here
Cos living here so long undisturbed
Dreaming of the time we were free
So many years ago
Before the time when we first heard
Welcome to the home by the sea

Sit down sit down
Sit down sit down sit down sit down
As we relive out lives in what we tell you
Let us relive out lives in what we tell you

Sit down sit down sit down
Cos you wont get away
No with us you will stay
For the rest of your days - sit down
As we relive our lives in what we tell you
Let us relive our lives in what we tell you

The Waiting / Tom Petty

[...]

The waiting is the hardest part
Every day you see one more card
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part

Wiedermal ein absoluter Klassiker.
Die beste Version findet sich auf dem Album
des legendären Rainbow Concerts von 1973.

Presence of The Lord / Eric Clapton

I have finally found a way to live just like I never could before.
I know that I dont have much to give, but I can open any door.
Everybody knows the secret, everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a way to live in the color of the lord.
I have finally found a place to live just like I never could before.
And I know I dont have much to give, but soon Ill open any door.
Everybody knows the secret, everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a place to live in the presence of the lord.
In the presence of the lord.

I have finally found a way to live just like I never could before.
And I know I dont have much to give, but I can open any door.
Everybody knows the secret, I said everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a way to live in the color of the lord.
In the color of the lord.

Supertramp, "Goodbye Stranger"





"It was an early morning yesterday
I was up before the dawn
And I really have enjoyed my stay
But I must be moving on

Like a king without a castle
Like a queen without a throne
I'm an early morning lover
And I must be moving on

Now I believe in what you say
Is the undisputed truth
But I have to have things my own way
To keep me in my youth

Like a ship without an achor
Like a slave without a chain
Just the thought of those sweet ladies
Sends a shiver through my veins

And I will go on shining
Shining like brand new
I'll never look behind me
My troubles will be few

Goodbye stranger it's been nice
Hope you find your paradise
Tried to see your point of view
Hope your dreams will all come true
Goodbye Mary, Goodbye Jane
Will we ever meet again
Feel no sorrow, feel no shame
Come tomorrow, feel no pain

Now some they do and some they don't
And some you just can't tell
And some they will and some they won't
With some it's just as well

You can laugh at my behavior
That'll never bother me
Say the devil is my savior
But I don't pay no heed

And I will go on shining
Shining like brand new
I'll never look behind me
My troubles will be few
Goodbye stranger it's been nice... "

Paying The Cost To Be The Boss / B.B. King

You act like you to don't wanna listen,
When I'm talking to you
You think you outta be my baby,
Anything you wanna do

You must be crazy, baby,
You just gotta be out of your mind
As long as payin' I'm the bills, woman,
I'm payin' the cost to be the boss

I'll drink if I wanna,
And play a little poker too
Don't you say nothing to me,
As long as I'm taking care of you
As long as I'm working baby,
And payin' all the bills
I don't want no mouth from you,
About the way I'm supposed to leave

You must be crazy, woman,
You just gotta be out of your mind
As long as I'm footin' the bills,
I'm paying the cost to be the boss

Now that you got me,
You act like you are a shame
You don't act like my woman,
You just using my name

I tell you I'll gonna handle all the money,
And I don't wanna no back talk
'Cause if you don't like the way I'm doing,
Just pick up your things and walk

You must be crazy baby,
You just gotta be out of your mind
As long as paying the bills,
I'm paying the cost to be the boss

On The Road Again (Canned Heat)

Well I'm so tired of cryin' but I'm out on the road again - I'm on the road again.
Well I'm so tired of cryin' but I'm out on the road again - I'm on the road again.
I ain't got no woman just to call my special friend.

And I'm going to leave the city, got to go away.
I'm going to leave the city, got to go away.
All this fussing and fighting, man I sure can't stay.
