What are you listening to?

Hi all, this is one of the latest album of Megadeth.

What we are witnessing is the decline of western civilization
Crushing our potential and piling it on, how will history portray us?
Attack the family, attack their faith and dreams
Attack the body and the head will fall
A lasting legacy or ruin brought in haste?
The enemy of truth is lying there in state

Another day, another manufactured crisis keeping the people distracted
There's no one playing by the rules anymore, how will history portray us?
A broken backbone with nothing left to lose?
That hate the sight of all the ones that do?
A lasting legacy or ruin brought in haste?
The enemy of truth is lying there in state

A shiny new agenda, birthed from a depraved mind
Of failing us on purpose, to culturally sanitize
Its opiates for the masses under cloak as hope and change
The "new normal" or just more of the same?

The perfect plan
Must have an alibi
And the perfect pawn
To spew the party line
Of the perfect falsehood
Spoke a thousand times
The perfect words
Cover the greatest crime

Hell is turning itself inside out
To lead its path up to meet us
And we deliberately take
A step, one foot closer to the grave

I'm glad that "sounds" beautiful for you Goyacobol. :)


There's this one too that i find pretty nice:

Wow, I forgot about the Wailin Jenny's and how much I liked their songs. Her voice is very clear yet also not boring and slow. It's very warm, much like the instrumental stuff I like these days. Modern pop/rock doesn't cut it anymore!

Usually songs have half inaudible lyrics these days which annoys the &*(@ out of me, lol.

I've started using this plugin with spotify web player and youtube to see lyrics:

And for spotify web/youtube ads and spyware, they can be easily removed with the best ad blocker out there:

Divide By Zero and zak,

Thank you for the great music and the new lyrics tool. I just installed it in Firefox and thought I'd share the results for this song. The lyrics remind me of the support we share on the forum. :)

We Lived in each other pocket´s
We Lived in each other seams
We lived in the hope that someday
We would see our love redemmed
We took all the roads less travelled
We took the roads most would avoid
We could make each other feel so empty
Then we were there to fill the void
And my Heart belonged
And my Heart belonged
To all of you
We lived in each other´s future Pocket - Ruth Moody - Mark Knopfler
We Lived in each other pocket´s
We Lived in each other seams
We lived in the hope that someday
We would see our love redemmed
We took all the roads less travelled
We took the roads most would avoid
We could make each other feel so empty
Then we were there to fill the void
And my Heart belonged
And my Heart belonged
To all of you
We lived in each other´s future
We lived in each other´s dreams
We spoke of the future less and less
´Till a dream was all it seemed
And my Heart belonged
And my Heart belonged
To all of you
Oh but how we dreamed, we would have died back then
We where young and we believed
As brothers will for brothers
And captains Know they cannot leave
But soon the courtain it came down us
Blame was laid and questions raised
And so like leaves we were all scattered
But in our hearts it never changed
We Lived in each other pocket´s
Whit the shadows and the shame
We held on for fear of loosing love
Just as quickly as this came
And my Heart belonged
And my Heart belonged
And my Heart belonged
To all of you
We lived in each other´s dreams
We spoke of the future less and less
´Till a dream was all it seemed
And my Heart belonged
And my Heart belonged
To all of you
Oh but how we dreamed, we would have died back then
We where young and we believed
As brothers will for brothers
And captains Know they cannot leave
But soon the courtain it came down us
Blame was laid and questions raised
And so like leaves we were all scattered
But in our hearts it never changed
We Lived in each other pocket´s
Whit the shadows and the shame
We held on for fear of loosing love
Just as quickly as this came
And my Heart belonged
And my Heart belonged
And my Heart belonged
To all of you
(Gracias a Alejandro por esta letra)

The music and voice is beautiful I think. The language is fictional? I think but I wonder what they were trying to say. Hopefully, it has good intention.

Here is a version with the lyrics (although no real translation):

I guess they could mean anything from "Peace and good will to man" to we don't like the taste of humans who smoke? :huh: :/

Yes, fictional. The soundtrack comes from a video game. They tried to imagine the form that could take several languages hundreds of years (there is at least French, english, portuguese, gaelic) after a collapse of the civilization (the main story of the game).
 
Hey, while we're on the topic of videogame music, here's one I've rediscovered recently. There are a few from this game I have a soft spot for, but this is the one that stands out to me. My only real issue with the lyrics is the phrase toward the end, "You gave to me a reason to believe." In the context of the story, I interpret it more like "a reason to go on", which would have been a good stand-in.

Hah, I feel kind of exposed posting it, but here you go:

Thanks for the discovery. In general, japanese are quite good in making video games music, specially for RolePlayGames. I play no more than very rarely but i'm still looking at some video game release not for playing but just for the soundtrack :lol:.
