What are you listening to?

Lots of great music here :rockon:

I've seen Ernie Peniston many times and have been thoroughly trounced at cricket (darts) by the band members once or twice. :-D

and The Budos Band is another gem you may not have heard of...
Never heard of the Budos Band but a gem indeed! They smoke! Great jazz sound- Thank you!!!
 
The Taste of Love



English Translation:
My love is twofold
One a mirror, one a shadow
One seen, the other unseen
One untamed, the other wise

Let me burn in the flames (3x)
If I love you out of the fear of hell
Let me burn in the flames (3x)
If I love you out of the promise of paradise

The lover has lost his heart
To the wine bearer, to the consoler
To the skeptic, to the believer
To the witness, to the victim
To this world, to that veil of light (2x)

Let me burn in the flames (3x)
If I love you out of the fear of hell
Let me burn in the flames (3x)
If I love you out of the promise of paradise

He who has partaken of the taste of love
Can no longer reveal the truth
For he has abandoned life for the heart (2x)
 
Some quotes below that I found on the meanings/interpretations of the name of the band:

Quote:
I also like it when they said "everyone's been two steps from Hell in one way or another", and I can REALLY relate to that, too: suffering from terrible problems in the past and so on, you know, the type of problems (life's trials/tests) that can make someone feel like they are in hell; you know when life is REALLY testing you, subjecting you from harsh situations and pressure/friction in order to "polish" you into a beautiful diamond if you were able to overcome the challenge.


And on top of that, I found their music to be really inspiring, I mean, just from most, if not all, of the titles in their works alone, the first impression I get is that it's meant to inspire one to be brave, to keep moving, to be courageous, and all the other virtues I could mention; virtues that one must cultivate in order to overcome life's challenges ("Hell"), thereby making one emerge two steps from "Hell".

Quote:
"we're all two steps from Hell at some point, but we can still choose to do the right thing."

Ay, ay, ay, ay...

With the passing of the years
I have learned in life
that it is lived intensely
because if not, it ends

With the passing of the years
the affection is better
you appreciate what you have
and you respect other

Sweet water, salty water
by water it comes, by water it goes
Sweet water, salty water
blessed is life, it takes and it gives

Water that falls from the sky
upon the waves of the ocean
I want to drink you sweet
and you get salty,

I want to drink you sweet,
and you get salty

Sweet water, salty water
Sweet water, salty water

Ay, ay, ay, ay...

With the passing of the years
you need to take your steps well
Take the better road
even if it seems longer to you

With the passing of the years
you learn from your sorrows,
the heart becomes hardened
and the emotion much stronger

Sweet water, salty water
by water it comes, by water it goes
Sweet water, salty water
blessed is life, it takes and it gives

Water that falls from the sky
upon the waves of the ocean
I want to drink you sweet
and you get salty,
I want to drink you sweet
and you get salty

Sweet water, salty water
Sweet water, salty water
 
a powerful song (foul language warning)
Throw that Bob-Marley-wannabe motherfucker out of here
Fade
Underneath the skin and jewelry
Hidden in her words and eyes
Is a wall that's cold and ugly
And she's scared as hell
Trembling at the thought of feeling
Wide awake and keeping distance
Nothing seems to penetrate her
'Cause she's scared as hell
I am frightened too
I am frightened
Oh no, oh-oh
Trembling at the thought of feeling
Wide awake and keeping distance
Nothing seems to penetrate her
'Cause she's scared as hell
I am frightened too
I am frightened
Wide awake and
Keeping distance from my soul
Wide awake and
Keeping distance from my soul
Fade
Underneath the skin and jewelry
Hidden in her words and eyes
Is a wall that's cold and ugly
And she's scared as hell
Trembling at the thought of feeling
Wide awake and keeping distance
Nothing seems to penetrate her
'Cause she's scared as hell
I am frightened too
I am frightened too
I am scared like you
I am frightened
 
another that (annoyingly) never seems to become less relevant
Here they come
Here come the bastards
I heard it from a confidant
Who heard it form a confidant
They're definitely on their way
There's one with this idea
Something about a hammer head shark
Nosehairs and flatus
Best keep your distance because
Here they come here come the bastards
Bury your head deep in the sand
Anonymity is a virtue in this day and age
Amazing hand dexterity
Flagrant misuse of security
Better run, run, run, run, run
Run run run run, here they come.
