What are you listening to?

MANIC STREET PREACHERS - If you tolerate this your children will be next. (1998)

The some of the lyrics seem even more appropriate with every passing day, with the rise of the fascist and psychopathic mindset of Western leaders.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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
And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
Will be next
Will be next
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 if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Will be next
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
And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Will be next

 
10 Years
All your lies

Pay attention, pay attention, pay attention please.
He who lusts through life for excess in this world
Dies a lonely man, careless of his soul.
Throwing caution to the wind with foolish ignorance.
You're full of pride. Full of pride. Full of pride.

And in arrogance (America) you can't accept the
nearing of this short lived life.

Smile and give a toast, brag and boast.
Fool the world with all of your lies.
The parasite's host never even knows.
Pull the wool over our eyes.

Walk the line and pay the price
A pound of flesh for paradise.
Wear the wounds of your demise.

Fail to mention your intentions, fail to mention why.
The actions of your life contradict your words...
The path in which you walk is a vice of no remorse.
Washing conscience from the skin, claiming innocence.
Ignore the signs.

Bend the truth till you can't find it.
Find it
Twist your lies till you don't mind them
Mind them

Walk the line and pay the price.
A pound of flesh for paradise.
Wear the wounds of your demise.
Demise
From cradle to grave, you chose to trade
A pound of flesh for paradise.
Wear the wounds of your demise.
 
Two Tori Amos songs


"Devils And Gods"

Devils and Gods now that's an idea
But if we believe that its They who decide
That's the ultimate detractor of crimes
'cause Devils and Gods
They are You and I
Devils and Gods
They are You and I
Devils and Gods
Safe and Inside

"Velvet Revolution"

Feeling radical in Cotton
Purified in my Satin
But the bomb of the season
Is a Velvet Revolution

I look at the sky
And feel the tears of the
Prophets crying

I look at the sky
And feel the rain
The rain of tears

Feeling radical in Cotton
Purified in my Satin
But the bomb of the season
Is a Velvet Revolution

All you killers of the children
There's a new Commandment
The true Divine Creator wants a
Velvet Revolution

All you killers of the children
There's a new Commandment
The true Divine Creator wants a

That was just amazing.

This is one I just love:

Judith Edelman - Magnetic


It's the buzz when I'm full
Of your sweet magnetic pull
It's the tug that I crave
It's how opposites behave
Is electricity all there is to you and me?

In the field, in the field
Where the static is revealed
If the north isn't true
Will I lose my way to you?
Is electricity all there is to you and me?

Chorus:
What's gonna happen when the magnetism fades?
Will we burn up one bright day?
Will the aurora borealis give us one last show?
You can't leave love to science when you go.

There's a deep molten heart
Where these strange attractions start
If we are passionate
Will this rock remember it?
Is electricity all there is to you and me?

Chorus:
What's gonna happen when the magnetism fades?
Will we burn up one bright day?
Will the aurora borealis give us one last show?
You can't leave love to science when you go.

Oh boy, Mark Knopfler! I'm listening to him for the last two months and I can't get enough of his voice and guitar... he is so good!

Thanks grini, I was just in the mood for a song like Mark Knopfler's The Kingdom of Gold. The subject matter and video hit me just right. I saved this one. The voice, music and subject matter touches me.

And I enjoyed the Queen one too - These are the Days of Our Lives.

I´ve just listen to this 9 years old little girl singing opera without this art ever been taught nor studied by her. Just sounds celestial.

On the other side, it´s hard for me to see without condemning how the jury´s behaviour around a girl at such an age is being triggered by their godisch complex and what not while running into a kind of hectic admiration. But that aside, the girl is truly gifted:

Muse's new album has been released:

Drones

Killed by drones

My mother, my father,
My sister and my brother
My son and my daughter
killed by drones

Our lives between...
Finger and your...
Can you feel anything?
Are you dead inside?
Now you can kill
From the safety of your home
With drones

Amen
