Music Gathering ( Archived) (9)

Post a song here(with artist), whether it has some meaning to you at the moment, or just something you think not many people would know about. And let's not restrict ourselves to only english songs, any nationality and language will do! And here's hoping we can discover music that we didn't know we liked, or even existed :]

And youtube videos if you can find 'em! I'll start, with something fitting :D

"Turn It Up" - Robots in Disguise

I'll have to grab it and play it for him, then :]

Thank you, Mystic...that's sweet. I'm going out shortly, and I'll be playing it on the juke box.

cigarettes and chocolate milk
these are just a couple of my cravings
everything it seems i like's a little bit stronger
a little bit thicker
a little bit harmful for me

if i should buy jellybeans
have to eat them all in just one sitting
everything it seems i like's a little bit sweeter
a little bit fatter
a little bit harmful for me

and then there's those other things
which for several reasons we won't mention
everything about them is a little bit stranger
a little bit harder
a little bit deadly

it isn't very smart
tends to make one part so broken-hearted

sitting here remembering me
always been a shoe made for the city
go ahead, accuse me of just singing about places
with scrappy boys faces
have general run of the town
playing with prodigal songs
takes a lot of sentimental valiums
can't expect the world to be your raggedy andy
while running on empty
you little old doll with a frown

you got to keep in the game
maintaining mystique while facing forward
i suggest a reading of 'a lesson in tightropes'
or 'surfing your high hopes' or 'adios kansas'

it isn't very smart
tends to make one part so broken-hearted

still there's not a show on my back
holes or a friendly intervention
i'm just a little bit heiress, a little bit irish
a little bit tower of pisa whenever i see you
so please be kind if i'm a mess

Another beautiful song:

WHEN THE CHILDREN CRY~White Lion

little child
dry your crying eyes
how can I explain
the fear you feel inside
cause you were born
into this evil world
where man is killing man
but no one knows just why
what have we become
just look what we have done
all that we destroyed
you must build again

when the children cry
let them know we tried
cause when the children sing
then the new world begins

little child
you must show the way
to a better day
for all the young
cause you were born
for all the world to see
that we all can live
with love and peace
no more presidents
and all the wars will end
one united world
under god

when the children cry
let them know we tried
cause when the children sing
then the new world begins

what "have we" become
just look what we have done
all that we destroyed
you must build again
no more presidents
and all the wars will end
one united world
under god

when the children cry
let them know we tried
when the children fight
let them know it ain't right
when the children pray
let them know the way
cause when the children sing
then the new world begins

Btw, if you want to see something truly good, there's a related video on Youtube of Sungha Jung playing "When The Children Cry", as well as some others. Very talented young man. Doesn't sing apparently, but plays awesome guitar. There are other videos of him as well. Thought I'd share.
