Marc, tipje graag? Of indien niet mogelijk: andere opgave?

[Marc VA]

is nochtans één van mijn favoriete "liedjes" uit de jaren 60: needle of death van de vorig jaar overleden bert jansch
hier nog een mooi "liedje"

xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx
xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx

I know a man
He came from my home town
He wore his passion for his woman
Like a thorny crown
He said Dolores
I live in fear
My love for you's so overpowering
I'm afraid that I will disappear

xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx
xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx

I know a woman
Became a wife
These are the very words she uses
To describe her life
She said a good day
Ain't got no rain
She said a bad day's when I lie in bed
And think of things that might have been

xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx
xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx

And I know a father
Who had a son
He longed to tell him all the reasons
For the things he'd done
He came a long way
Just to explain
He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping
Then he turned around and headed home again

xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx
xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx

God only knows
God makes his plan
The information's unavailable
To the mortal man
We're working our jobs
Collect our pay
Believe we're gliding down the highway
When in fact we're xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx

xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx
xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx

xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're xxxx xxxxxx’ xxxx
Mmm...

Met wat geluk wordt dit ook snel gevonden, een van mijn favorieten uit de jaren '80...


All the rain came down
On a cold new town
As it carried you away
From your father's hand
That always seemed like a fist
Reaching out to make you pay

He came like a hero from the factory floor
With the sun and moon as gifts
But the only son you ever saw
Were the two he left you with

Oh Lord where did the feeling go
Oh Lord I never felt so low

Now the skirts hang so heavy around your head
That you never knew you were young
Because you played chance with a lifetime's romance
And the price was far too long

Oh Lord where did the feeling go
Oh Lord I never felt so low

Oh Lord where did the feeling go
Oh Lord I never felt so low

Oh Lord where did the feeling go
Oh Lord I never felt so low

Oh Lord where did the feeling go
Oh Lord I never felt so low

Oh Lord where did the feeling go
Oh Lord I never felt so low

Fab Five Freddie told me everybody's fly
DJ's spinning I said my, my
Flash is fast, Flash is cool
Francois sais pas, Flashe no deux
And you don't stop, sure shot
Go out to the parking lot
And you get in your car and you drive real far
And you drive all night and then you see a light
And it comes right down and lands on the ground
And out comes a man from Mars
And you try to run but he's got a gun
And he shoots you dead and he eats your head
And then you're in the man from Mars
You go out at night, eatin' cars
You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too
Mercuries and Subarus
And you don't stop, you keep on eatin' cars
Then, when there's no more cars
You go out at night and eat up bars where the people meet
Face to face, dance cheek to cheek
One to one, man to man
Dance toe to toe
Don't move too slow, 'cause the man from Mars
Is through with cars, he's eatin' bars
Yeah, wall to wall, door to door, hall to hall
He's gonna eat 'em all
XXX, be pure
Take a tour, through the sewer
Don't strain your brain, paint a train
You'll be singin' in the rain
I said don't stop, do punk rock

Don't think sorry's easily said
Don't try turning tables instead
You've taken lots of chances before
But I ain't gonna give anymore, don't ask me
That's how it goes
Cause part of me knows what you're thinkin'

Don't say words you're gonna regret
Don't let fire rush to your head
I've heard the accusation before
And I ain't gotta take any more, believe me
The sun in your eyes
Made some of the lies worth believing

I am ---
Looking at you, I can read your mind
I am the maker of rules
Dealing with fools, I can cheat you blind
And I don't need to see any more to know that
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind

Don't leave false illusions behind
Don't cry, I ain't changing my mind
So find another fool like before
Cause I ain't gonna live anymore believing
Some of the lies while all of the sides are deceiving

I am ---
Looking at you, I can read your mind
I am the maker of rules
Dealing with fools, I can cheat you blind
And I don't need to see any more to know that
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind (looking at you)
I can read your mind

Een van mijn favorieten (heb een 6-tal full-cd's van hem) uit THE EIGHTIES:

ALAN PARSONS PROJECT - "Eye in the sky"

ALAN PARSONS PROJECT - "Eye in the sky"

[peegee]

OOK EEN VAN MIJN FAVORIETEN UIT THE EIGHTIES
SUPERTEKST Vooral het stukje dat ik donkerder heb gemaakt

Het gaat over een eenzame man, die wel een vrouw wil, maar zonder al het "gezaag rond zijn oren"....

I was blue and lonely, I couldn't sleep a wink
And I could only get unconscious if I'd had to much to drink.
There was somehow, something wrong somewhere, and each day seemed grey and dead
The seeds of desperation were growing in my head.
I needed inspiration, a brand new start in life,
Somewhere to place affection, but I didn't want a wife.
And then by lucky chance I saw [in] a special magazine
An ad. that was unusual, the like I'd never seen,
"Experience something different with our new imported toy,
She's loving, warm, inflatible and a guarantee of joy."
She came all wrapped in cardboard, all pink and shrivelled down
A breath of air was all she needed to make her lose that frown.
I took her to the bedroom and pumped her with some life,
And later in a moment that girl became my wife.
And so I sit her in the corner and sometimes stroke her hair
And when I'm feeling naughty I blow her up with air
She's cuddly and she's bouncy, she's like a rubber ball,
I bounce her in the kitchen and I bounce her in the hall.
[And now my life is different since xxx came my way]
I wake up [in the] morning and have her on a tray
She's everything they say she was and I wear a permanent grin,
And I only have to worry in case my girl wears pins.

Het gaat over een eenzame man, die wel een vrouw wil, maar zonder al het "gezaag rond zijn oren"....

... en de zieligaard doet het dan maar met een opblaaspop...
