Charles Drago Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 For Americans, with regret: Dancing in the dark, 'Til the tune ends, We're dancing in the dark, And it soon ends, We're waltzing in the wonder of why we're here, Time hurries by, we're here, And gone, Looking for the light, Of a new love, To brighten up the night, I have you, love, And we can face the music together, Dancing in the dark by Arthur Schwartz and Howard Dietz Jazz singer Jon Hendriks has opined that these lyrics describe a classic near death experience (NDE).

John Dolva Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 (edited) Vientnam Song - Country Joe and the Fish ~ 1974Well, come on all of you, big strong men, Uncle Sam needs your help again. He's got himself in a terrible jam Way down yonder in Vietnam So put down your books and pick up a gun, We're gonna have a whole lotta fun. And it's one, two, three, What are we fighting for ? Don't ask me, I don't give a damn, Next stop is Vietnam; And it's five, six, seven, Open up the pearly gates, Well there ain't no time to wonder why, Whoopee! we're all gonna die. Come on Wall Street, don't be slow, Why man, this is war au-go-go There's plenty good money to be made By supplying the Army with the tools of its trade, But just hope and pray that if they drop the bomb, They drop it on the Viet Cong. And it's one, two, three, What are we fighting for ? Don't ask me, I don't give a damn, Next stop is Vietnam. And it's five, six, seven, Open up the pearly gates, Well there ain't no time to wonder why Whoopee! we're all gonna die. Well, come on generals, let's move fast; Your big chance has come at last. Now you can go out and get those reds 'Cause the only good commie is the one that's dead And you know that peace can only be won When we've blown 'em all to kingdom come. And it's one, two, three, What are we fighting for ? Don't ask me, I don't give a damn, Next stop is Vietnam; And it's five, six, seven, Open up the pearly gates, Well there ain't no time to wonder why Whoopee! we're all gonna die. Come on mothers throughout the land, Pack your boys off to Vietnam. Come on fathers, and don't hesitate To send your sons off before it's too late. And you can be the first ones in your block To have your boy come home in a box. And it's one, two, three What are we fighting for ? Don't ask me, I don't give a damn, Next stop is Vietnam. And it's five, six, seven, Open up the pearly gates, Well there ain't no time to wonder why, Whoopee! we're all gonna die. Right on, Peter. "Give me an F...give me a U..." - 'CJ and the F', same song, intro at Woodstock. Reference to Jane Fonda F.U.C.K. parody on opponent comments. From J Cash Hurt topic Well, you wonder why I always dress in black, Why you never see bright colors on my back, And why does my appearance always have a somber tone. Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on. I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down, Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town, And I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime, But still is there because he's a victim of the times. I wear the black for those who never read, Or listened to the words that Jesus said, About the road to happiness through love and charity, Why, you'd think He's talking straight to youse and me. Well, we're doin' mighty fine, I do suppose, In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes, But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back, Up front there ought'a be a Man In Black. I wear it for the sick and lonely old, For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold, I wear the black in mourning for the lives that could have been, Each week we lose a hundred fine young men. And yes I wear it for the thousands who have died, Believen' that the Lord was on their side, and to wear it for another hundred thousand who have died, Believen' that we all were on their side. Well, there's things that never will be right I know, And things need changin' everywhere you go, But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right, You'll never see me wear a suit of white. I'd love to wear a rainbow every day, To tell the world that everything's OK, But maybe I can carry off a little darkness on my back, 'Till things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black.

John Dolva Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Referring to youtube topic post: Indeed : The Great Joni Mitchell (for those with dial-up, (I find the loading time consuming without broadband) the Lyrics: "For Free" I slept last night in a good hotel I went shopping today for jewels The wind rushed around in the dirty town And the children let out from the schools I was standing on a noisy corner Waiting for the walking green Across the street he stood And he played real good On his clarinet, for free. Now me I play for fortune And those velvet curtain calls I've got a black limousine And two gentlemen Escorting me to the halls And I play if you have the money Or if you're a friend to me But the one man band By the quick lunch stand He was playing real good, for free. Nobody stopped to hear him Though he played so sweet and high They knew he had never Been on their T.V. So they passed his music by I meant to go over and ask for a song Maybe put on a harmony... I heard his refrain As the signal changed He was playing real good, for free. Another good one: "Woodstock" He was walking along the road And I asked him, where are you going And this he told me Im going on down to yasgurs farm Im going to join in a rock n roll band Im going to camp out on the land Im going to try an get my soul free We are stardust We are golden And weve got to get ourselves Back to the garden Then can I walk beside you I have come here to lose the smog And I feel to be a cog in something turning Well maybe it is just the time of year Or maybe its the time of man I dont know who l am But you know life is for learning We are stardust We are golden And weve got to get ourselves Back to the garden By the time we got to woodstock We were half a million strong And everywhere there was song and celebration And I dreamed I saw the bombers Riding shotgun in the sky And they were turning into butterflies Above our nation We are stardust Billion year old carbon We are golden Caught in the devils bargain And weve got to get ourselves Back to the garden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Drago Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 All The Sad Young Men by Tommy Wolf and Fran Landesman Sing a song of sad young men, glasses full of rye All the news is bad again, kiss your dreams goodbye All the sad young men, sitting in the bars Knowing neon nights, and missing all the stars All the sad young men, drifting through the town Drinking up the night, trying not to drown All the sad young men, singing in the cold Trying to forget, that they're growing old All the sad young men, choking on their youth Trying to be brave, running from the truth Autumn turns the leaves to gold, slowly dies the heart Sad young men are growing old, that's the cruellest part All the sad young men, seek a certain smile Someone they can hold, for just a little while Tired little girl, does the best she can Trying to be gay, for a sad young men While a grimy moon, watches from above All the sad young men, who play at making love Misbegotten moon shine for sad young men Let your gentle light guide them home again All the sad, sad, sad, young men _________________________________________________ For those who return contained or minimized.

Guest Gary Loughran Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 (edited) Reminds me of the PC/JFK forum everytime I hear it. For fans of Orwell If you tolerate this your children will be next (longest titled UK no 1 without brackets) - Manic Sreet Preachers The future teaches you to be alone The present to be afraid and cold So if I can shoot rabbits Then I can shoot fascists Bullets for your brain today But we'll forget it all again Monuments put from pen to paper Turns me into a gutless wonder And if you tolerate this Then your children will be next Gravity keeps my head down Or is it maybe shame At being so young and being so vain Holes in your head today But I'm a pacifist I've walked La Ramblas But not with real intent And if you tolerate this Then your children will be next And on the street tonight an old man plays With newspaper cuttings of his glory days And if you tolerate this Then your children will be next Edited June 23, 2008 by Gary Loughran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cigdem Göle Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 A bit of a pessimistic song from Ash, yet wonderful lyrics. Behold this night, still and clear You look here just like an angel sleeping I wish I could ease your fears I would catch the diamond tears you're weeping In your eyes I would hide By your side I could defy The forces tearing us apart But reality, as it seems Looking back, is that our dream Was fated from the start We're star-crossed and can't escape We're condemned and can only wait At this time now it's far too late To save us from our fate I'll remain in your hold Body, mind, heart and soul As long as I breathe Though consequence takes its toll All is out of our control That's how it will be So close your eyes my young bride Listen to me one last time There's something I have to say When your faith turns to despair Always will my love be there And never fade away We're star-crossed and can't escape We're condemned and can only wait At this time now it's far too late To save us from our fate You can't save us You can't save us At this time now it's far too late The poison's in our veins It's true You know that I'd die for you You know that I'd die for you You know that I'd die for you Forever true I'll see you through Starcrossed - Ash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cigdem Göle Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 (edited) It's the intensity in the lyrics and the tunes of the guitars that make this song so special. ---- Strange infatuation seems to grace the evening tide. I'll take it by your side. Such imagination seems to help the feeling slide. I'll take it by your side. Instant correlation sucks and breeds a pack of lies. I'll take it by your side. Oversaturation curls the skin and tans the hide. I'll take it by your side. I'm unclean, a libertine And every time you vent your spleen, I seem to lose the power of speech, You're slipping slowly from my reach. You grow me like an evergreen, You've never seen the lonely me at all I... Take the plan, spin it sideways. I... Fall. Without you, I'm nothing. Without you, I'm nothing. Without you, I'm nothing. Take the plan, spin it sideways. Without you, I'm nothing at all. Placebo - Without You I'm Nothing Edited July 20, 2008 by Cigdem Eksi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cigdem Göle Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 What is life if you're not there? Why should I even care? All alone inside my head Watch the walls close in instead I'm not supposed to bring you down You're not supposed to turn me round What are dreams if not made real? How am I supposed to feel? What's your love without some hate? Should I act or hesitate?
