Starship - We Built This City

 
We built this city
We built this city on rock and roll
Built this city
We built this city on rock and roll

Say you don't know me or recognize my face
Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place
Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight
Too many runaways eating up the night

Marconi plays the mambo, listen to the radio
Don't you remember?
We built this city
We built this city on rock and roll

We built this city
We built this city on rock and roll
Built this city
We built this city on rock and roll

Someone's always playing corporation games
Who cares, they're always changing corporation names
We just want to dance here, someone stole the stage
They call us irresponsible, write us off the page

Marconi plays the mambo, listen to the radio
Don't you remember?
We built this city
We built this city on rock and roll

We built this city
We built this city on rock and roll
Built this city
We built this city on rock and roll

It's just another Sunday
In a tired old street
Police have got the choke hold, oh
Then we just lost the beat

Who counts the money underneath the bar?
Who rides the wrecking ball into our guitars?
Don't tell us you need us 'cause we're the ship of fools
Looking for America, coming through your schools

(I'm looking out over that Golden Gate bridge on another gorgeous sunny Saturday and I'm seein' that bumper to bumper traffic.)

Don't you remember? (remember)

(Here's your favorite radio station, in your favorite radio city, the city by the bay, the city that rocks, the city that never sleeps.)

Marconi plays the mambo, listen to the radio
Don't you remember?
We built this city
We built this city on rock and roll

We built this city
We built this city on rock and roll
Built this city
We built this city on rock and roll
Built this city (oh)
We built this city on rock and roll
Built this city
We built this city on rock and roll

(We built, we built this city) built this city (we built, we built this city)
(We built, we built this city) built this city (we built, we built this city)
(We built, we built this city) built this city (we built, we built this city)
(We built, we built this city) built this city (we built, we built this city) 

 

FM-84 ft. Ollie Wride - Running In The Night

 
I used to be the one
I used to be your getaway dreamer
I couldn't get enough
Thinking that we would last forever
Don't know what you're thinking of
Slipping further out of reach
To the edge of town we could go
Away from all the world to see

You were wild trying to set yourself free
I didn't see the signs right in front of me

Oh, I'm running in the night so soon
I've got nothing left to lose
I'm leaving it all behind, running in the night with you
I won't let you get away again
We can see it through to the end
But whatever we do
I'm running in the night with you

I used to be the one
I used to be your place to land
Under the shadows
Into the palm of my hand
You're always changing the situation
Just when we found paradise
You're always shutting down the conversation
I can never read your mind

Oh, I'm running in the night so soon
I've got nothing left to lose
I'm leaving it all behind, running in the night with you
I won't let you get away again
We can see it through to the end
But whatever we do
I'm running in the night with you

Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
Running with the night
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
I'm running with the night

I used to be the one
I used to be your getaway dreamer
I couldn't get enough
Thinking that we would last forever

Oh, I'm running in the night so soon
I've got nothing left to lose
I'm leaving it all behind, running in the night with you
I won't let you get away again
We can see it through to the end
But whatever we do
I'm running in the night with you

Oh, I'm running in the night so soon
I've got nothing left to lose
I'm leaving it all behind, running in the night with you
I won't let you get away again
We can see it through to the end
But whatever we do
I'm running in the night with you

Елена Ваенга - Шопен

 
Дотянись рукой – твоя
Нельзя... Нельзя...
Не смотри мне так в глаза -
Нельзя... Нельзя...
Вспоминать, как рука в руке
Лежала – нельзя...
Мне теперь мира мало,
Хоть мир во мне.

Я хочу, чтоб это был сон,
Но, по-моему, я не сплю,
Я болею тобой, я дышу тобой,
Жаль, но я тебя люблю.

Обманув саму себя,
Попала в плен.
Мне всю ночь играл рояль
Шопен... Шопен...

Поцелуй на моих губах
Горит огнём,
И вся музыка сейчас –
Ему, о нём.

Я хочу, чтоб это был сон,
Но, по-моему, я не сплю,
Я болею тобой, я дышу тобой,
Жаль, но я тебя люблю.

Дотянись рукой – твоя,
Нельзя... Нельзя...
Не смотри мне так в глаза -
Нельзя... Нельзя...
Поцелуй на моих губах
Горит огнём,
И вся музыка сейчас –
Ему, о нём.

Я хочу, чтоб это был сон,
Но, по-моему, я не сплю,
Я болею тобой, я дышу тобой,
Жаль, но я тебя люблю.

Ghostly Kisses - Where Do Lovers Go?

 
Meet me where all wrongs turn to right
Meet me where the light greets dark
Where the lovers go when they are tired

Keep me where you hide your second sight
Deep inside where secrets start
Where the lovers go when they are tired

Let's watch the last rays fading out
Entwine our bodies on common ground

Will you hold on my love?
Even in a time of trouble
I want to hold on my love
Even in times of trouble
Will you hold on my love?
Even in a time of trouble
I want to hold on my love
Even in times of trouble

Meet me where you can break the silence
Meet me where the light greets dark
Where the lovers go when they are tired

Meet me in the gentle afterlight
Where your world falls apart
Where do lovers go when they are tired?

Let's watch the last rays fading out
Entwine our bodies on common ground

Will you hold on my love?
Even in a time of trouble
I want to hold on my love
Even in times of trouble
Will you hold on my love?
Even in a time of trouble
I want to hold on my love
Even in times of trouble 

 

Martin Garrix & Dean Lewis - Used To Love

 
Walking through the door of this old and lonely
Place that used to feel like us
Remembering the only thing that made me
Feel like I was worth the love

We used to hold hands, now I dance alone
We had Springsteen playing so loud
We danced in the dark till it felt like home
With you home was anywhere

But you will never be left behind
Give me a moment, I need just a little more time
If I could I would have made things right
But we can't go back to the way that we used to love
Never apart you're still running through my blood
But we can't go back to the way that we used to love

But we can't go back to the way that we used to love
We can't go back to the way that we used to

Be talking through the night, you were laying by my side
You were always there to heal my scars
And into the dawn I do my best to try and find
Some sleep but you still keep me up

We used to hold hands, now I dance alone
We had Springsteen playing so loud
We danced in the dark till it felt like home
With you home was anywhere

But you will never be left behind
Give me a moment, I need just a little more time
If I could I would have made things right
But we can't go back to the way that we used to love
Never apart you're still running through my blood
But we can't go back to the way that we used to love

We can't go back to the way that we used to

But I can't escape, you're still in my head
I'm running from, I'm running from the emptiness
But I can't escape, you're still in my head
I'm running from, I'm running from the emptiness
But I can't escape, you're still in my head
Ooh, I'm running from, I'm running from the emptiness
But I can't escape, you're still in my head
Ooh, I'm running from, I'm running from the emptiness

We can't go back to the way that we used to love

Etienne Daho - Ouverture

 
Il n'est pas de hasard,
il est des rendez-vous,
pas de coïncidence
Aller vers son destin,
l'amour au creux des mains,
la démarche paisible
Porter au fond de soi,
l'intuition qui flamboie,
l'aventure belle et pure
Celle qui nous révèle,
superbes et enfantins,
au plus profond de l'âme
Porté par l'allégresse,
et la douceur de vivre
de l'été qui commence
La rumeur de Paris,
comme une symphonie,
comme la mer qui balance
J'arrive au rendez-vous,
dans l'épaisse fumée,
le monde me bouscule
Réfugié dans un coin
et observant de loin
la foule qui ondule
Mais le choc imminent
sublime et aveuglant
Sans prévenir arrive
Je m'avance et je vois,
que tu viens comme moi,
d'une planète invisible
Où la pudeur du coeur
impose le respect
la confiance sereine
Et plus tu t'ouvres à moi
et plus je m'aperçois
que lentement je m'ouvre
Et plus je m'ouvre à toi
et plus je m'aperçois
que lentement tu t'ouvres
Il fut long le chemin
et les pièges nombreux
avant que l'on se trouve
Il fut long le chemin
les mirages nombreux
avant que l'on se trouve
Ce n'est pas un hasard,
c'est notre rendez-vous
pas une coïncidence. 

 

Bruce Springsteen - Secret Garden

 
She'll let you in her house
If you come knocking late at night
She'll let you in her mouth
If the words you say are right
If you pay the price
She'll let you deep inside
But there's a secret garden she hides

She'll let you in her car
To go driving around
She'll let you into the parts of herself
That will bring you down
She'll let you in her heart
If you got a hammer and a vise
But into her secret garden, don't think twice

You've gone a million miles
How far would you get
To that place where you can't remember
And you can't forget

She'll lead you down a path
There will be tenderness in the air
She'll let you come just far enough
So you know she's really there
Then she'll look at you and smile
And her eyes will say
She's got a secret garden
Where everything you want
Where everything you need
Will always stay
A million miles away

Ridan - L'Agriculteur

 
J'allume mon poste de télé
Pour admirer ce qu'il s'y passe
Un milliardaire s'envoie en l'air
Quitte l'atmosphère pour voir l'espace
J'troque son bol d'air et sa cuillère
Contre un p'tit verre sur ma terrasse
J'en ai ras l'bol de tout ce béton
J'ai la folie des grands espaces
J'en ai ras l'bol de tout ce béton
J'ai la folie des grands espaces

Mais qu'est ce qui s'passe dans nos p'tites têtes
On s'entasse tous comme des sardines
Dans les grosses boîtes que l'on conserve
Le p'tit poisson doit suivre sa ligne
Dans les grosses boîtes que l'on conserve
Le p'tit poisson doit suivre sa ligne

Et puis merde
J'ai décidé de vivre loin sur la colline
Vivre seul dans une maison
Avec la vue sur ma raison
J'préfère vivre pauvre avec mon âme
Que vivre riche avec la leur
Et si le blé m'file du bonheur
Je me ferai peut-être agriculteur
Et si le blé m'file du bonheur
Je me ferai peut-être agriculteur

Y a trop d'feux rouges dans les grandes villes
J'ai préféré me mettre au vert
J'ai plus de bonheur à vivre en paix
Que m'admirer au fond d'un verre
J'boirai l'eau saine de mon ruisseau
Plutôt que l'eau sale du fond de la Seine
Chargée en plomb et en histoire
Que la surface ne laisse plus voir
Chargée en plomb et en histoire
Que la surface ne laisse plus voir

J'ferai des bornes pour m'éloigner
Pour me retrouver face au miroir
Juste une seconde de vérité
Pour qu'mon passé coule sous les ponts
J'ferai des bornes pour m'éclipser
Pour me retrouver face à que dalle
Juste une seconde de vérité
Pour contempler ce qu'on est tous

Et puis merde
J'ai décidé de vivre loin sur la colline
Vivre seul dans une maison
Avec la vue sur ma raison
J'préfère vivre pauvre avec mon âme
Que vivre riche avec la leur
Et si le blé m'file du bonheur
Je me ferai peut-être agriculteur
Et si le blé m'file du bonheur
Je me ferai peut-être agriculteur

Ça fait longtemps que j'n'ai plus vu
Ce coin de soleil à l'horizon
Ça fait longtemps que j'l'attendais
La petite lueur de la raison
Une petite chanson au clair de lune
Pour réchauffer le cœur de pierre
Le grand retour à l'essentiel
Le feu de bois éclaire le ciel
Le grand retour à l'essentiel
Le feu de bois éclaire le ciel

La mélodie de la nature
Reprend ses droits sur la folie
C'est toute la vie qui nous observe
Que l'on oublie au fil du temps
La mélodie, celle de la vie
Que l'on consume à chaque instant
Tous nos acquis s'écrasent au sol
Et j'ai choisi la clef des champs
Tous nos acquis s'écrasent au sol
Et j'ai choisi la clef des champs

Et puis merde
J'ai décidé de vivre loin sur la colline
Survivre seul dans une maison
Avec la vue sur ma raison
J'préfère vivre pauvre avec mon âme
Que vivre riche avec la leur
Et si le blé m'file du bonheur
Je me ferai peut-être agriculteur
Et puis merde
J'ai décidé de vivre loin sur la colline
Survivre seul dans une maison
Avec la vue sur ma raison
J'préfère vivre pauvre avec mon âme
Que vivre riche avec la leur
Et si le blé m'file du bonheur
Je me ferai peut-être agriculteur
Et si le blé m'file du bonheur
Je me ferai peut-être agriculteur

 

Soumission

 

La pauvreté dans la liberté est préférable à la soumission dans l'opulence.

Ahmadou Kourouma, En attendant le vote des bêtes sauvages

Evans|Blue - Cold (But I'm Still Here)

 
Hello, I'm your martyr, will you be my gangster
can you feel my trigger hand, moving further down your back
when you hide, hide inside that body
but just remember that when I touch you
the more you shake, the more you give away

cold, but I'm still here, blind, 'cause I'm so blind, say never
we're far from comfortable this time
cold, now we're so cold, mine, and you're not mine, say never
we're far from obvious this time

wait, another minute here, time will kill us after all
now can you feel its second hand wrapped around your neck
so fall into my eyes and fall into my lies
but don't you forget
the more you turn away, the more I want you to stay

cold, but I'm still here, blind, 'cause I'm so blind, say never
we're far from comfortable this time
cold, now we're so cold, mine, and you're not mine, say never
we're far from obvious this time

you're so endearing, you're so beautiful,
well I don't look like they do, and I don't love like they do
but I don't hate like they do
am I ever on your mind?

cold, but I'm still here, blind, 'cause I'm so blind, say never
we're far from comfortable this time
cold, now we're so cold, mine, and you're not mine, say never
we're far from obvious this time

COLD, you broke me from the very first night
I'd love you 'til the day that I die
I'm far too comfortable this time
COLD, I loved you from the very first night
you broke me 'til the day that I die
I'm far too obvious this time 

 

Avenged Sevenfold - GunsLinger

 
Yeah, you've been alone
I've been gone for far too long
But with all that we've been through
After all this time I'm coming home to you

Never let it show
The pain I've grown to know
'Cause with all these things we do
It don't matter when I'm coming home to you

I reach towards the sky I've said my goodbyes
My heart's always with you now
I won't question why so many have died
My prayers have made it through yeah
'Cause with all these things we do
It don't matter when I'm coming home to you

Letters keep me warm
Helped me through the storm
But with all that we've been through
After all this time I'm coming home to you

I reach towards the sky I've said my goodbyes
My heart's always with you now
I won't question why so many have died
My prayers have made it through yeah
'Cause with all these things we do
It don't matter when I'm coming home to you

I've always been true
I've waited so long just to come hold you
I'm making it through
It's been far too long, we've proven our
Love over time's so strong, in all that we do
The stars in the night, they lend me their light
To bring me closer to heaven with you

(Bring me closer)

But with all that we've been through
After all this time I'm coming home to you

I reach towards the sky I've said my goodbyes
My heart's always with you now
I won't question why so many have died
My prayers have made it through yeah
'Cause with all these things we do
It don't matter when I'm coming home to you

And with all that we've been through
After all this time I'm coming home to you 

 

Gun control

 

I have a very strict gun control policy: if there's a gun around, I want to be in control of it.

Clint Eastwood

Midnight Oil - Sleep

 
So you've got the blues
The evening wore out your shoes
To a shuffling beat
It's a colourful crowd
Spraycan information
Cover the lonely station
Checkpoint for the state of the nation

On the missionbeat beat
The radio drug
Wayward destinations
Secondhand sensation
In the back of the cell
The plug and the cord
Shoulder dislocation
Bruised in isolation

In the eye of the storm
Writing on walls
Cross my heart confusion
Looking for a new solution

It's the heat of the land
Swallowing sweat
Say those dreams can shake me
Dawn come down and save me

Take this heart
Break this heart
Wrap it up and let me sleep 

 

From Ashes To New - Light Up The Sky

 
I'll be there to see your face
As you choke on the smoke you made

(Burn)

This day has finally happened
You're getting back what you gave away
I'll watch you turn to ashes
Then I'll let you suffocate

Impatiently waiting
Basically, I've been debating
Should I be making the flames that you went and created?
The way I imagined the blazing fire would ravage you
It's sad but true
I didn't even have to get back at you

Light up the sky

And I'll be there to see your face
As you choke on the smoke you've made
Yeah, I wanna watch the sky turn gray
You're up in flames
I'll be there to see your face
While you light up the sky and burn
While you light up the sky and burn

I've suffered long enough from
Every lie that you swore was true
You've played with fire for too long
Now it's all coming back to you

You're instantly thinking and wishing things would be different admit it
You live in a script only you could've written you dimwit
You took a ticket ripped and then committed
You did it
Broke up the sticks poured out the gas and then lit it

And I'll be there to see your face
As you choke on the smoke you've made
Yeah, I wanna watch the sky turn gray
You're up in flames
I'll be there to see your face
While you light up the sky and burn

I thought that you would've learned
You're getting what you deserve
I thought that you would've learned
You're getting what you deserve
Just burn
I thought that you would've learned
Just burn
You're getting what you deserve
Just burn
I thought that you would've learned
Just burn

And I'll be there to see your face
As you choke on the smoke you've made
Yeah, I wanna watch the sky turn gray
You're up in flames
I'll be there to see your face
While you light up the sky and burn

And I'll be there to see your face
As you choke on the smoke you've made
Yeah, I wanna watch the sky turn gray
You're up in flames
I'll be there to see your face
While you light up the sky and burn 

 

Gryffin & Jason Ross ft. Calle Lehmann - After You

 
Had so many dreams
Baby, you and me
Said forever and I believed it
Now it's 4 am
I'm wide-awake again
Going over our memories and

Fools go rushing out
I just don't know how
I'm supposed to be alright
When you're not around

'Cause now it's like
Nobody gets me like you do
I'm not the same, not after you
So many things that we've been through
I'm not the same
Not after all that's been said and done
I don't even feel like I'm back at one, no
Nobody gets me like you do
I'm not the same, not after you

I'm not the same, not after you
I'm not the same, not after you

I've been broke and lost
Took you running off
Need you now like the air I'm breathing
You're still on my mind
And when I close my eyes
You're the only thing I see and

Fools go rushing out
I just don't know how
I'm supposed to be alright
When you're not around

'Cause now it's like
Nobody gets me like you do
I'm not the same, not after you
So many things that we've been through
I'm not the same
Not after all that's been said and done
I don't even feel like I'm back at one, no
Nobody gets me like you do
I'm not the same, not after you

I'm not the same, not after you
I'm not the same, not after you
I'm not the same, not after you
I'm not the same

Fools go rushing out
I just don't know how
I'm supposed to be alright
When you're not around

'Cause now it's like
Nobody gets me like you do
I'm not the same, not after you
So many things that we've been through
I'm not the same
Not after all that's been said and done
I don't even feel like I'm back at one, no
Nobody gets me like you do
I'm not the same, not after you

I'm not the same, not after you
I'm not the same
Not after all that's been said and done
I don't even feel like I'm back at one, no
Nobody gets me like you do
I'm not the same, not after you

Axel Bauer - Laisse Venir

 
Les yeux fermés depuis si longtemps endormi
Ne rien changer je sais que c'est bien mieux ainsi
Je ne me laisserai pas prendre
A tous tes jeux tes artifices
Qu'importe la chaleur au bout de mes doigts engourdis
Oh tout explose ces désirs oubliés au fond de moi
Me désarment à tout jamais

Laisse venir laisse venir
Nous aurons tout le temps
Laisse venir laisse venir
Nous sommes faits pour nous découvrir
Nous aurons tout le temps
Laisse venir dans l'instant

Un autre détail tache de couleur sans importance
Minuscule faille dans mon univers d'un calme intense
Tout a l'air si simple
Que je pourrais facilement en perdre la tête
J'ai si peur d'avoir mal
Mais je ne veux pas que tout cela s'arrête
Oh tu imploses en désirs oubliés au fond de moi
Tu m'obsèdes à tout jamais

Laisse venir laisse venir
Nous aurons tout le temps
Laisse venir laisse venir
Nous sommes fait pour nous découvrir
Nous aurons tout le temps
Laisse venir dans l'instant 

 

Stéphane - Douleur Je Fuis

 
Tu m'as dit avec assurance
C'était ta dernière chance
J'ai pensé aux aspects pratiques
Les vacances à Dubrovnik

De jour et nuit, j'avais toujours pas saisi
On peut pas me quitter, donc ça veut pas rentrer
Joueur je suis, douleur je fuis
Je fus, j'étais, si tu revenais

Joueur j'étais, douleur j'essuie
Je fuis, j'étais
Je ne réponds plus

Quand tes affaires tu as repris, petit placard est devenu grand
La chambre et le quartier, je fuis et je m'oublie dans le petit écran
J'ai une boule au ventre à chaque fois que je rentre par l'arrière de la maison
Se souvient-elle de ton nom?

C'est qu'après la fin que j'ai ouvert ma garde
Faut-il ce genre de destin pour qu'on se regarde?
C'est qu'après la fin que j'ai ouvert ma garde
Faut-il ce genre de destin pour qu'on se regarde?

Joueur je suis, douleur j'essuie
Je fus, j'étais
Si tu revenais

Joueur j'étais, douleur j'essuie
Je fuis, j'étais
Je ne réponds plus

Joueur je suis
Douleur je fuis
Joueur je fus
Douleur au mur

L'autre fois j'étais mal préparée, à la gare je suis restée sur le quai
Sifflet de ton train qui part, frissons inexpliqués
Si j'avais un message à remettre entre tes mains ouvertes
Ça dirait, j'ai changé cet été mais tu pourras pas en profiter

C'est qu'après la fin que j'ai ouvert ma garde
Faut-il ce genre de destin pour qu'on se regarde?
C'est qu'après la fin que j'ai ouvert ma garde
Faut-il ce genre de destin pour qu'on se regarde?

Joueur je suis, douleur je fuis
Je fus, j'étais
Ce passé n'est plus

Joueur je fus, douleur au mur
Envie d'un puis
Tout ce que je fuis

Joueur je suis
Douleur je fuis
Joueur je fus
Douleur au mur

C'est qu'après la fin que j'ai ouvert ma garde
Faut-il ce genre de destin pour qu'on se regarde?
C'est qu'après la fin que j'ai ouvert ma garde
Faut-il ce genre de destin...
