"και πως θα το ακούσουμε;;"

"δεν ξέρω...εγώ έχω το cd. εσείς , τα παιδιά της νέας τεχνολογίας, έχετε τρόπους να το μοιραστείτε μεταξύ σας, δεν με χρειάζεστε" :flipout::flipout:

Bob Dylan - All Along the Watchtower


"There must be some way out of here" said the joker to the thief
"There's too much confusion", I can't get no relief
Businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth
None of them along the line know what any of it is worth.

"No reason to get excited", the thief he kindly spoke
"There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke
But you and I, we've been through that, and this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late".

All along the watchtower, princes kept the view
While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too.

Outside in the distance a wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
 
Marvin Gaye - How Sweet It Is To Be Loved by You

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQIrwprU1SY

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

I needed the shelter of someone's arms and there you were
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs
and there you were
With sweet love and devotion
deeply touching my emotion
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

I close my eyes at night,
wondering where would I be without you in my life
Everything I did was just a bore,
everywhere I went it seems I'd been there before
But you brightened up for me all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
I want to stop and thank you baby
I want to stop and thank you baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

You were better to me than I've been to myself
For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby


How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
 
Minnie Ripperton - Lovin' You

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kE0pwJ5PMDg

Lovin' you is easy cause you're beautiful
Makin' love with you is all I wanna do
Lovin' you is more than just a dream come true
And everything that I do is out of lovin' you
Maya Maya Maya Maya... do do do do do

No one else can make me feel
The colors that you bring
Stay with me while we grow old
And we will live each day in the springtime
Cause lovin' you has made my life so beautiful
And every day my life is filled with lovin' you

Lovin' you I see your soul come shinin' through
And every time that we oooooh
I'm more in love with you
Maya Maya Maya Maya... do do do do do

No one else can make me feel
The colors that you bring
Stay with me while we grow old
And we will live each day in springtime
Cause lovin' you is easy cuz your beautiful
And every day my life is filled with lovin' you

Lovin' you I see your soul come shinin' through
And every time that we oooooh
I'm more in love with you
Maya Maya Maya Maya... do do do do do

*"I Need Your Loving" is the second single to be taken from the British Synthpop group The Human League's 1986 album, Crash.
This song was written by the song writing team of Harris/Lewis/Eiland/Rickey/Williams/Davis and like many others from the album, was aimed towards the US market, where the first single from Crash, "Human", had reached number one. The single was recorded at the Flyte Time studios Minneapolis under the production of Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis while the Human League had been in residence from February until April 1986. After the huge success of "Human", Virgin Records selected "I Need Your Loving" as the second single to be released from "Crash" without consulting the band. The choice was a serious mistake and the single flopped badly on both sides of the Atlantic. In the UK it was promoted with a cheaply and badly filmed music video and it became the band's worst showing in the UK charts for 6 years, only reaching number 75. The song was savaged by critics at the time and has now been largely disowned by the band since.[1][2]*

*wiki

Φυσικά το lp crash δεν μπορεί συνολικά να συγκριθεί με τις προηγούμενες δουλειές τους.
Αλλά
Κάπως έτσι περιγράφει η wiki to δεύτερο single I need your loving από το συγκεκριμένο lp

Έχω άλλη άποψη. Δεν κρίνεις ένα κομμάτι από την θέση που πήρε στα charts, ούτε φυσικά από το πόσο κιτς ήταν το video.

Όλοι όσοι αγαπούσαν την μαύρη μουσική στα 80ς, γνώριζαν πολύ καλά τι σήμαινε να βλέπει κανείς στα credits του δίσκου Flyte Tyme Productions(Jimmy jam, Terry Lewis, Prince, Morris Day, κλπ). Ο όρος blue eyed soul αδικεί τελείως το κομμάτι. μιας και επί της ουσίας πρόκειται για ένα από εκείνα τα σφιχτοδεμένα 80ς funk που με μοναδικό τρόπο έφτιαχναν οι Jimmy jam & Terry Lewis. Και το γκρουπ φυσικά όχι μόνο είναι τελείως εντός κλίματος, αλλά ειδικά τα κορίτσια φαίνεται ότι έχουν εμπεδώσει πάρα πολύ καλά τις “κοφτές” ερμηνείες κάθε επίδοξης σταρ που πέρασε από την Paisley Park.
Στα μαύρα forums ακόμα αναρωτιούνται πως και δεν ξέσκισε τουλάχιστον τα r&b charts.
 
Ο μόνος λόγος που μπορώ να σκεφτώ για την αποτυχία του single είναι η ομοιότητά του (ελέω ίδιων παραγωγών) με το "Control" της "γηγενούς" και με "όνομα βαρύ σαν ιστορία" Janet Jackson που κυκλοφόρησε την ίδια εποχή.

Υ.Γ. Άκουγα τις προάλλες το κομμάτι στο youtube και σκεφτόμουν ότι θα σου άρεσε....

Διόρθωση: Εννοούσα το "What have you done for me lately" από τον δίσκο "Control" της Janet...
 
Too Shy to say - Stevie Wonder

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_j-MxKALFU


You make me smile
You make me sing
You make me feel good everything
You bring me up
When I've been down
This only happens when you're around

And I can't go on this way...
With it stronger every day...
But being too shy to say
That I really love you...

I wanna fly
Away with you
Until there's nothing more for us to do
I wanna be
More than a friend
Until the end of an endless end

And I can't go on this way...
With it stronger every day...
But being too shy to say
That I really love you...

And I can't go on this way...
Feelin' it stronger every day...
But being too shy to say
That I really love you
Ohh.. ooh...
I... do...
 
Prince - Cinnamon Girl

As war drums beat in Babylon
Cinnamon girl starts to pray
Eye've never heard a prayer like this one
Never before that day

Tearful words of love 4 people she had never met before
Asking God to grant them mercy in this face of a holy war

Cinnamon Girl

Cinnamon Girl of mixed heritage
Never knew the meaning of color lines
911 turned that all around
When she got accused of this crime

So began the mass illusion, war on terror alibi
What's the use when the god of confusion keeps on telling the same lie?

Cinnamon Girl

Don't cry, don't shed no tears
1 night won't make us feel
Cause we know how this movie's ending

Cinnamon Girl

As war drums beat in Babylon
And scorch the blood red sky
Militants bomb the foreign gun
Both sides truly die

Cinnamon girl opens the book she knows will settle all the scores
Then she prays after the war that there will not b anymore

Cinnamon Girl
