What are you listening to?

Seven Turns ... and still :deadhorse:

 
Nice Allman Brothers - 7 Turns, Zak. Never heard that one before. Deceptively simple with a nice instrumental diversion and return in the middle.

I know we don't need to comment but I like this thread.

So, while I'm at it I'll throw in an old one (because I'm getting old) here's an old folk song:

Peter, Paul and Mary - If I Had A Hammer (25th Anniversary Concert)

 
Regina Spektor - Consequence of Sounds


My rhyme ain't good just yet,
My brain and tongue just met,
And they ain't friends, so far,
My words don't travel far,
They tangle in my hair,
And tend to go nowhere,
They grow right back inside,
Right past my brain and eyes
Into my stomach juice
Where they don't serve much use,
No healthy calories,
Nutrition values.
And I absorb back in
The words right through my skin
They sit there festering inside my bowels

The consonants and vowels
The consequence of sounds
The consonants and vowels
The consequence of sounds

Got a soundtrack in my mind,
All the time. Kids-
Screamin' from too much beat up
And they don't even rhyme,
They just stand there, on a street corner,
Skin tucked in
And meat side out and shot,
And I'd like to turn them down
But there ain't no knob.
Run into picket fences
Not into picket lines.
All this hippie-shit for the 60's
And another clich© for our time. But,
But a one of these days your heart
Will just stop ticking,
And they sorta just don't find you till your cubicle is reeking.

The consonants and vowels
The consequence of sounds
The consonants and vowels
The consequence of sounds
Ahh ah ah ah ahh ah ah ah

Did you know that the gravedigger's still
Gettin' stuck in the machine
Even tough it's a whole other daydream.
It's another town it's another world,
Where the kids are asleep, where the loans are paid
And the lawns are mowed.
Whad'ya think?
All the gravediggers were gone?
Just cause one song is done
There's always another one,
Waiting right around the bend,
Till this one ends,
Then it begins
Squeaky clean, then it starts all over again.

The weather report keeps on
Tossing and turning,
Predicting and warning,
And warning and warning of,
Possible leakage from news publications and,
Possible leakage from news TV stations.
That very same morning right next to her coffee
She noticed some bleeding and heard hollow coughing and
National Geographic was being too graphic,
When all she had wanted to know was the traffic
"The worlds got a nosebleed" it said
"And we're flooding but we keep on cutting
The trees and the forests!"
And we keep on paying those freaks on the TV,
Who claim they will save us but want to enslave us.
And sweating like demons they scream through our speakers
But we leave the sound on 'cause silence is harder.
And no one's the killer and no one's the martyr
The world that has made us can no longer contain us
And profits are silent then rotting away 'cause

The consonants and vowels
The consequence of sounds.
The consonants and vowels
The consequence of sounds.
Ah ah ah...

My rhyme ain't good just yet,
My brain and tongue just met,
And they ain't friends, so far,
My words don't travel far,
They tangle in my hair,
And tend to go nowhere,
They grow right back inside,
Right past my brain and eyes
Into my stomach juice
Where they don't serve much use,
No healthy calories,
Nutrition values.
And I absorb back in
The words right through my skin
They sit there festering inside my bowels

The consonants and vowels
The consequence of sounds
The consonants and vowels
The consequence of sounds

i heard this on an independent music channel going in to work one day, and it brought me to tears while it validated my soul.

Spirit Bird, by Xavier Rudd

Give it time and we wonder why
Do what we can, we laugh and we cry
And we sleep in your dust because
We've seen this all before.
Culture fades with tears and grace,
Leaving us stunned hollow with shame
We have seen this all, seen this all before.

Many tribes of a modern kind
Doing brand new work same spirit by side
Joining hearts and hands in ancestral twine, ancestral twine

Slowly it fades
Slowly we fade
Slowly we fade
Slowly we fade

Spirit bird, she creaks and groans
She knows she has
Seen this all before, she has
Seen this all before

Slowly it fades, slowly we fade.

Soldier on, soldier on my good countrymen
Keep fighting for your children now
Keep fighting for your land.
I know it's been thousands of years
I feel your hurt
And I know it's wrong and you feel you've been
Chained and broken and burned
And those beautiful people, those wise old souls
Have been ground down for far too long
By that spineless man, that greedy man
That heartless man,
Deceiving man, that government hand
Taking blood and land, taking blood and land,
And still they can

But you're dreaming and your warrior spirit lives on
And it is so so so strong
In the earth, in the trees, in the rocks,
In the water in your blood and in the air we breathe
Soldier on
Soldier on my good countrymen,
Keep fighting for your children now
Keep fighting for your land.

Slowly we fade
Slowly it fades

Give it time and we wonder why
We do what we can
We laugh and we cry
And we sleep in your dust because we've seen this all before.

There must be lights burning brighter somewhere
Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue
If I can dream of a better land
Where all my brothers walk hand in hand
Tell me why, oh why, oh why can't my dream come true
There must be peace and understanding sometime
Strong winds of promise that will blow away

All the doubt and fear
If I can dream of a warmer sun
Where hope keeps shining on everyone
Tell me why, oh why, oh why won't that sun appear

We're lost in a cloud
With too much rain
We're trapped in a world
That's troubled with pain
But as long as a man
Has the strength to dream
He can redeem his soul and fly
Deep in my heart there's a trembling question
Still I am sure that the answer gonna come somehow
Out there in the dark, there's a beckoning candle

And while I can think, while I can talk
While I can stand, while I can walk
While I can dream, please let my dream
Come true, right now
Let it come true right now
Oh yeah
