HEATHER NOVA: ALWAYS CHRISTMAS.


HEATHER NOVA is one of our recurring singer-songwriters and I want to remember one of her songs from "The Jasmine Flower". I am talking about ALWAYS CHRISTMAS A song that clearly differed from the rest of the songs on this album, That was quite intimate. Hope You Like.



LYRICS

Christmas is coming
Like a road I’m running
All the lights reminding me
There’s something more I’ve got to give

Bells are ringing
In my head, I’m singing
Still I can’t begin to feel the light
That I was meant to live

All of the places that I used to know
The million faces passing by
And you and I, we still have far to go

It’s always, it’s always, it’s always Christmas
When I feel this way
It’s always, it’s always, it’s always Christmas
When I feel this way

The night is silent
How the stars are vibrant
And I wish the world was peaceful
As it seems it is tonight

So hang the mistletoe
And kiss the one below
But pray the angels come
And bring this world a little light

All of the places that I used to know
The million faces passing by
And you and I, we still have far to go

It’s always, it’s always, it’s always Christmas
When I feel this way
It’s always, it’s always, always Christmas
When I feel this way

All of the places that I used to know
The million faces passing by
And you and I, we still have far to go

It’s always, it’s always, it’s always Christmas
When I feel this way
It’s always, it’s always, always Christmas
When I feel this way

It’s always, it’s always, always Christmas
When I feel this way

NIÑA DE LA PUEBLA: LOS CAMPANILLEROS.


It's not exactly a typical Christmas song, but it sounds in my memories of Christmas from the past. This is LA NIÑA DE LA PUEBLA and her most emblematic song LOS CAMPANILLEROS. A very sentimental Andalusian song. Hope you like.




LYRICS

En los pueblos de mi Andalucía
los campanilleros por la "madrugá"
me despiertan con sus campanillas
y con sus guitarras me hacen llorar.
Yo empiezo a cantar, ...
y al oírme todos los pajarillos
que están en las ramas se echan a volar.

Pajarillos que vais por el campo,
seguid a la estrella, volad a Belén,
que os espera un niño chiquito
que el Rey de los Cielos y la Tierra es.
Volad a Belén, ...
que os espera un niño chiquito,
que el Rey de los Cielos y la Tierra es.

En la noche de la Nochebuena,
bajo las estrellas y por la "madrugá"
los pastores, con sus campanillas,
adoran al Niño que ha nacido ya.
Y con devoción, ...
van tocando zambombas, panderos,
cantando las coplas al Niño de Dios.

A la puerta de un rico avariento
llegó Jesucristo y limosna pidió,
y en lugar de darle una limosna
los perros que había se los azuzó.
Pero quiso Dios, ...
que al momento los perros murieran
y el rico avariento pobre se quedó.

Si supieras la entrada que tuvo
el Rey de los cielos en Jerusalén
no quiso ni coches ni calesas,
sino un jumentito que "alquilao" fue.
Quiso demostrar, ...
que las puertas divinas del cielo
tan solo las abre la Santa humildad.

INDIGO GIRLS: MAKING PROMISES.


I Think INDIGO GIRLS are a little miracle. Because few bands composed by women are in music over twenty years ago and without losing the quality of the first day. Their new album is as good as their beggining albums. This is MAKING PROMISES that belongs to their last album "Beauty Queen Sister". Hope You Like.

DANIELLE BRISEBOIS: GIMME LITTLE SIGN


I was asking to myself what happened to DANIELLE BRISEBOIS. I still remember her hit from the nineties -Although it appears from the eighties- GIMME LITTLE SIGN, and I looked for her at Wikipedia and I read she wrote songs to Natasha Bedingfield or New Radicals. But she only published two albums. Today I want to remember her. Hope you like.

JESCA HOOP: CITY BIRD.


The last work of JESCA HOOP is an Ep entitled "Snowglobe". We can find on it a song called CITY BIRD, and once again, she moves me. I Think that Jesca is the most disturbing singer songwriter of recent years. Hope you like.




LYRICS

City Bird, city bird
Fly away from my window, my window
'cause you don't sing
Like the birds from home sing
Your song is dying

I see the table
For The Ghost in my home, my home
And pour the wine, and raise a glass
For the guests in my home
They're entering
In their skin and in their bones, still in their bones
The vision scares, but none compares
To the dread of drinking alone

After the tower's turned to a tomb
The underworld refugees all were refused by the banker
They could never go in
So I let them in, oh...

City Bird, city bird
Fly away from my window, my window
'cause you don't sing
Like the birds from home sing
Your song is dying

I light the candle
For The Ghost in my home, my home
And say a prayer to please send care
For the guests in my home
But in their sleep
They Crawl and scream the devil home (The devil's come home)
But that nightmare
Does not compare to the demons in sleeping alone

After the tower's turned to a tomb
The underworld refugees all were refused by the banker
And with nowhere to go
They wash up on Skid Row, oh...

City Bird, city bird
Fly away from my window, my window
'cause you don't sing
Like the birds from home sing
Your song is dying

INGRID MICHAELSON: GHOST.


GHOST is the new single from "Human Again" the last album from INGRID MICHAELSON on sale in January 2012. Perhaps it's time to recognize Michaelson as one of the best singers and songwriters of her generation. Hope you like.



LYRICS

do you remember the walls fell
do you remember the sound that the door made
when you closed it at me
do you know that i went down to the ground
and landed on both my broken hearted knees
i didn’t even cry
cause pieces of me had already died

i’m a ghost, haunting these halls
climbing the walls that i never knew were there
and i’m lost, broken down the middle of my hard heart
i’m broken down the middle of my hard heart
you know you make me a ghost

i’m an invisible disaster
i keep trying to walk on my feet
don’t find the sound, the ground
it’s like living in a black dream
i keep trying to scream
but my tongue has finally lost its soul
tried to say goodbye
to the pieces of me that have already died

i’m a ghost, haunting these halls
climbing the walls that i never knew were there
and i’m lost, broken down the middle of my hard heart
i’m broken down the middle of my hard heart
you know you make me a ghost

oh you make me ghost
you make me a ghost
you make me a ghost

i don’t cry, i don’t try anymore
and i’m lost, broken down the middle of my hard heart
i’m broken down the middle

i’m a ghost, haunting these halls
climbing the walls that i never knew were there
and i’m lost, broken down the middle of my hard heart
i’m broken down the middle of my hard heart
you know you make me a ghost

After hearing YOU WON'T LET ME by RACHAEL YAMAGATA, if somebody had any doubt that it is one of the best songwriters of her generation, is confirmed. Hope you like.




ALBUM VERSION



LYRICS

If you'd only let me,
I could show you how to love.

Take our time,
let it all go.

If you'd only let me,
show you how to cry.

In your darkest hour,
I will lead you through the fire.

You won't let me,
You won't let me,
I don't wanna say goodbye,
I just wanna give it one more try.

And I'd do anything,
Yes, I'd do anything.
If you'd only let me.

With your hand in mine,
I would show you how to laugh.

Nothing heavy, nothing serious.
Just forget about all that.

You've been stepping back,
I wanna be your friend.

Tear down the walls that surround you,
Build you back up again.

But, you won't let me.
You won't let me.
I don't wanna say goodbye.
I just wanna give it one more try.

And I'd do anything,
Yes, I'd do anything.

So, tonight, stay with me.
I know I can change your mind.

But you won't let me..
You won't let me…
I don't wanna say goodbye.
I just wanna give it one more try,
But you won't let me.
You won't let me.

I don't wanna say goodbye,
I just want to give it one more try.
But you won't let me.
But you won't let me.

And I'd do anything for you..
I'd do anything for you,
But you won't let me..
You won't let me…

You won't let me.

LISA HANNIGAN: LITTLE BIRD


One of the more interesting artists of the last years is LISA HANNIGAN. Recently she has published "Passenger" Her second album. We can find on it gems like this LITTLE BIRD a precious song with an unusual clip. Hope You like.




LYRICS

Your heart sings like a kettle
And your words, they boil away like steam.
And a lie burns long while the truth bites quick,
A heart is built for both it seems.
You are lonely as a church,
Despite the queuing out your door.
I am empty as a promise, no more.

When the time comes,
And rights have been read,
I think of you often
But for once I meant what I said.

I was salted by your hunger,
Now you've gone and lost your appetite
And a little bird is every bit as handy in a fight.
I am lonely as a memory
Despite the gathering round the fire.
Aren't you every bird on every wire?

When the time comes,
And rights have been read,
I think of you often
But for once I meant what I said.
Here I stay, I lay me down,
I'm dug from the rubble, and cut from the kill.
Here I stay, I lay me down,
In a house by the Hill.
I'm dug from the rubble, and cut from the kill.
I'm dug from the rubble, and cut from the kill.
I'm dug from the rubble, and cut from the kill.

I Love DANCE TO THE END OF LOVE from LEONARD COHEN and the version by MADELEINE PEYROUX from this song is one of my favourites. Today I want to listen both versions because is the song that I need in this moment and I cannot forget another wonderful bonus extra by THE CIVIL WARS. Hope you Like.

MADELEINE PEYROUX



THE CIVIL WARS



LEONARD COHEN



LYRICS

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic 'til I'm gathered safely in
Lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
Oh let me see your beauty when the witnesses are gone
Let me feel you moving like they do in Babylon
Show me slowly what I only know the limits of
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the wedding now, dance me on and on
Dance me very tenderly and dance me very long
We're both of us beneath our love, we're both of us above
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the children who are asking to be born
Dance me through the curtains that our kisses have outworn
Raise a tent of shelter now, though every thread is torn
Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic till I'm gathered safely in
Touch me with your naked hand or touch me with your glove
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

THE BE GOOD TANYAS: A THOUSAND TINY PIECES.


In case of fire probably the first thing I will save are my three albums from THE BE GOOD TANYAS. Today I wanted to remember one of my favorites songs original from SEAN HAYES entitled A THOUSAND TINY PIECES. Hope you like.



In a Live Performance:



The original Version by SEAN HAYES



LYRICS

Let’s play this one out, until it explodes
Into a thousand tiny pieces
What’s the story universe
You are melody in numbers
You were shapes you were rhythms
There are signs that we can learn
Place over the heavens
To predict how long we’ll burn
How long will I last?
Can you turn up the heat?
What star am I circling?
What’s circling me?
Am I ebb, am I flow?
My lack of control
Turn it on, turn it up
Say yes, play no

Things keep changing
Things keep changing
Things keep changing

PAULA COLE: MUSIC IN ME.


Last Year, my adored PAULA COLE returned with "Ithaca" her fifth album. Today I want to remember MUSIC IN ME one of the best songs of this album that remind us the essence from her firsts albums. Hope you like.




LYRICS

The echo of shame, the voice inside my head,
The need for love, the insecurity.

Cutting me down, to the fourteen year old girl,
The Father Figure criticizing me.

Go on – through the darkest night,
Cause I know inside the answer’s here in me.

There’s blood on my soul, for speaking out my pain,
Perpetuating hurt in family.
My mother in me – I cannot explain,
My need for love from her will never wane.

Go on – through the darkest night,
Cause I know inside the answer’s here in me.
Go on – the shadowboxing fight
Disappears when all the music’s here in me.
Like an oracle the music’s here in me.
And I thank you God for music here in me.

Go on – through the darkest night,
Cause I know inside the answer’s here in me
Go on – the shadowboxing fight
And I’ll heal with understanding,
And I’ll deal with patient loving,
And I’ll make it cause the music’s here in me.

THE HEAD AND THE HEART: CATS AND DOGS.


THE HEAD AND THE HEART is a Seattle band and they are became in my favourite band at this moment. I've heard their debut album one again and again. I think is one of the best album from this year. I have chose CATS AND DOGS, The first track from this album. But I think any song on the album could have been chosen because they are all really good. Hope you Like.




LYRICS

Somewhere underneath
The floorboard
I will sweep my garden

Underneath the cupboard
Lives a mouse
And he discovered
There was nothing there

Nothin' there to discover

Fallin' from the sky
There are raindrops in my eyes
And my thoughts are diggin' in the backyard
My roots have grown but I don't know where they are

Don't know where they are
I don't know where they are
My roots have grown but I don't know where they are

Cats and dogs and rooster calls
Telephones and pay phone stalls

They take away
The lonely days
For now

They take away
The lonely days
For now

IMELDA MAY: JOHNNY'S GOT A BOOM BOOM.


Some time ago we wanted to offer a song of IMELDA MAY because it has been one of the best new artists in recent years. We chose her most emblematic song: JOHNNY'S GOT A BOOM BOOM that she has recorded in two of her albums: "Love Tattoo" (2008) and "Mayhen" (2011). Hope you like.




LYRICS

He got me with a hook
Those big bass notes
Thunder in my chest
Stuck in my throat
Pulling me down
Like a rumble in the ground
Crawls up from the depths
With a deep down sound

Johnny got a boom boom
Johnny got a bam
He got a...

Big bomb body
Lonely neck
Swear it was a woman
That he had in his grip
Big vibrations, yeah
Just one glance
He'd gonna blow my mind
He's gonna make me wanna
Make me wanna, oh

Watch that man
See what's in his hands
Got no joy
He's a big bad boy

He's gonna freak you out
You're gonna shriek out loud
He's got you in his hands
He's gonna make you wanna
Make you wanna, oh

FEIST: HOW COME YOU NEVER GO THERE.


"Metals" is the fourth studio Album by FEIST. And this is her first single HOW COME YOU NEVER GO. There is a great evolution as a songwriter in this new album. She is true to form. Although this time, a chorus of female voices are quite present throughout the album. Hope you like.




LYRICS

How come you never go there
How come I'm so alone there

How come you never go there
How come I'm so alone there

I went up to your window
Lightly banging on the cymbals
I leaped into the night
Came storm into your house

My horse had worked the fields too long
My bear had lost its innate calm
It's true enough for not at peace
But peace is never where it seems

Our love is not the light it was
When I walk inside the dark I'm calm
Where we look for where it went
It's only echoes in the melody

How come you never go there
How come I'm so alone there

How come you never go there
How come I'm so alone there

We waste time on blame and weak revenge
Waste energy and ?
We live in proof, we gotta let go
And stop looking through the lay-low

We carry on as if the time missed through
You carry on as if I don't love you
And so we find the way to lie
To cover hard I have a doubt now

The room is full, our eyes are empty
Like your letters never sent me
The words are like a lasso
You're an instrumental tune

How come you never go there
How come I'm so alone there

How come you never go there
How come I'm so alone there

How come you never go there
How come I'm so alone there

BIRDY: PEOPLE HELP THE PEOPLE.


One of the surprises of the season is called BIRDY. A teenage girl only fifteen years that she dares to cover songs from: Fleet Foxes, Bon Iver or CHERRY GHOST that owns this wonderful song entitled PEOPLE HELP THE PEOPLE that we will also hear at the end of the post. Hope you like.



ORIGINAL VERSION BY CHERRY GHOST



LYRICS

God knows what is hiding in that weak and drunken heart
I guess you kissed the girls and made them cry
those Hardfaced Queens of misadventure
God knows what is hiding in those weak and sunken eyes
a Fiery throng of muted angels
Giving love and getting nothing back

People help the people
And if your homesick, give me your hand and i'll hold it
People help the people
And nothing will drag you down
Oh and if I had a brain, Oh and if I had a brain
i'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
That turned, all those good hearts away

God knows what is hiding, in that world of little consequence
Behind the tears, inside the lies
A thousand slowly dying sunsets
God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts
I guess the loneliness came knocking
No on needs to be alone, oh save me

People help the people
And if your homesick, give me your hand and i'll hold it
People help the people
Nothing will drag you down
Oh and if I had a brain, Oh and if I had a brain
I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
That turned, all those good hearts away

People help the people
And if your homesick, give me your hand and I'll hold it
People help the people
Nothing will drag you down
Oh and if I had a brain, Oh and if I had a brain
I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
That turned, all those good hearts away

BON IVER: CALGARY.


Winter is coming and I feel the need to listen to BON IVER to the warmth of the fireplace and embracing the person I love. I have chosen CALGARY one of those tracks from their new album. Hope you like.



LYRICS

Don’t you cherish me to sleep
Never keep your eyelids clipped
Hold me for the pops and clicks
I was only for the father’s crib

Hair, old, long along
Your neck onto your shoulder blades
Always keep that message taped
Cross your breasts you won’t erase
I was only for your very space

Hip, under nothing
Propped up by your other one, face ‘way from the sun
Just have to keep a dialogue
Teach our bodies: haunt the cause
I was only trying to spell a loss

Pincher with the skin inside
You pinned me with your black sphere eyes
You know that all the rope’s untied
I was only for to die beside

So itʼs storming on the lake
Little waves our bodies break

There’s a fire going out,
But there’s really nothing to the south

Swollen orange and light let through
Your one piece swimmer stuck to you

Sold, I’m Ever
Open ears and open eyes
Wake up to your starboard bride
Who goes in and then stays inside
Oh the demons come, they can subside

JOAN AS POLICE WOMAN: CHEMMIE.


JOAN AS POLICE WOMAN was here before. But today I want to talk about the chemistry, and this song entitled CHEMMIE can explain the things we feel when we feel atracted by other person. Although in real life, people are not as geek as videos of Joan. Hope you like.



LYRICS

I always felt a charge
When you and I were close
Couldn't make out what you'd done to me
My mind would not let it go

'Cause inside of me
This side of me
Was saying "Oh no, he's got you girl
I think you've found the one"

'Cause we've got chemmie
We got a naughty chemical reaction
Might call it love at first touch
I'm all struck down

Yeah we've got chemmie
An untamed animal attraction
And I'm finding it hard to keep away
From all that's you

So then we stopped this getting to know
And got to getting down
I felt the melt of space and time
all right to come to let make me cry

So easily
We found symmetry
And now my body's taking over
I've lost control, I blame my DNA

'Cause we've got chemmie
We got a naughty chemical reaction
Might call it love at first touch
I'm all struck down

Yeah we've got chemmie
An untamed animal attraction
And I'm finding it hard to keep away
From all that's you

It doesn't happen every day phenomenon
I can finally safely say I get along with you
We made it through the eighth dimension
The total ascension 
We don't have to die to get to heaven

'Cause we've got chemmie
We got a naughty chemical reaction
Might call it love at first touch
I'm all struck down

Yeah we've got chemmie
An untamed animal attraction
And I'm finding it hard to keep away
From all that's you

Yeah we've got chemmie
We got a naughty chemical reaction
Might call it love at first touch
I'm all struck down

We've got chemmie
An untamed animal attraction
And I'm finding it hard to keep away
From all that's you

It's elemental a force of nature
It's elemental a force of nature

It's elemental a force of nature
It's elemental a force of nature...

HEATHER NOVA: UNTIL THE RACE IS RUN.


I Still recommend last album of HEATHER NOVA "300 Days at Sea", Probably one of the best albums of 2011. This is UNTIL THE RACE IS RUN one of the many reasons to buy this Cd. Hope you like.






LYRICS

No words to describe
This ocean inside
I'm tired and I'm afraid
And I can't find my way

I've been hiding for days
Caught up in these waves
Of hope and sorrow
I gotta find my strength

And I know I'm gonna make it
If my heart can take it
And if I don't, I know I'm gonna go out fighting

And I know I'm gonna get through
Cause I got the will to
And if I don't, I know I'm gonna go out trying

Could I rise up above
And be healed by love
And dream about the mountains that I've yet to climb

Can I touch what I feel
Can I make it all real
Just dream another dream to take me high

And I know I'm gonna make it
If my heart can take it
And if I don't, I know I'm gonna go out fighting

And I know I'm gonna get through
Cause I got the will to
And if I don't, you know I'm gonna go out trying

I will be strong
I will hold on
I will keep winning until the race is run

I will be strong
I will hold on
I will keep winning until the race is run

It's a beautiful day
If I could just walk away
From everything that keeps me from the truth I know

Cause I know I'm gonna make it, make it
If my heart can take it
And if I don't, I know I'm gonna go out fighting

I know I'm gonna get through
Cause I got the will to, got the will to
And if I don't, you know I'm gonna go out trying

I will be strong
I will hold on, I will hold on
I will keep winning until the race is run

I will be strong
I will hold on
I will keep winning until the race is run

I will be strong
I will hold on
I will keep winning until the race is run

I will be strong
I will hold on
I will keep winning until the race is run

I will be strong
I will hold on
Until the race is run
I will keep winning until the race is run

MARY CHAPIN CARPENTER: THE LAST WORD.


These are difficult times. And I like listening to the album by MARY CHAPIN CARPENTER, "Stones in the Road" (1994). Today I have chosen THE LAST WORD one of my favorite songs from this wonderful album. Hope you like.



LYRICS

You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone
It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done

Can't seem to keep the faith, as if that's all I need to do
I'd rather walk away than take what belongs to you

You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone
It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done

Some words will cut you down like you were only in the way
Why should I stand ths ground, it won't hurt as much to say

You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone
It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done

Sometimes we're blinded by the very thing we need to see
I finally realized that you need it more than you need me

You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone
It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done
The damage has all been done

MARTHA WAINWRIGHT: WHEN THE DAY IS SHORT.


I Love MARTHA WAINWRIGHT. Her three albums have been very inspiring and have accompanied me in greatest moments of my life. WHEN THE DAY IS SHORT is one of those songs that belongs to her excelent debut album. Hope you like.



LYRICS

When the day is short
And the nights are long
It's a different world
Where the rules are wrong

And I, I will go home with who
Whoever is sure
Are you sure?

And I don't care if you
If you love me tomorrow just
Love me tonight & I
I will be all right
I'll be all right
I'll be all right
Until tomorrow night

And it's oh so long
Meet your, meet your friends at the bar
And is that who those people are?
They they seem so very...oh, far
They seem so far
Is that who they really are?

And on the jukebox is your
Is your only song & I
I have never remembered the words
Now I've waited, waited too long
I've waited too long
Our love is gone

No more sober words of love
No more walks in the park side
No more sweet & shy touches, yeah
We're just lovers in the dark
Feel nothing, leave no mark
But it was fun when we saw sparks

When the day is short
And the nights are long
It's a different world
Where the rules are wrong

I'll be all right
I'll be all right

KATIE MELUA: I CRIED FOR YOU.


While KATIE MELUA new album is published, we will remember an old song from her second album: I CRIED FOR YOU our favorite of all her repertoire. Melua is a succesful british singer of Georgian origin. She has published four album to date and we are expecting eagerly her new album "Secret Simphony" on sale March 5th 2012. For now, I hope you like this song.



LYRICS

You're beautiful so silently
It lies beneath a shade of blue
It struck me so violently
When I looked at you

But others pass, they never pause
To feel that magic in your hand
To me you're like a wild rose
They never understand why

I cried for you
When the sky cried for you
And when you went
I became a hopeless drifter
But this life was not for you
Though I learned from you
That beauty need only be a whisper

I'll cross the sea for a different world
With your treasure, a secret for me to hold

In many years they may forget
This love of ours or that we met
They may not know
How much you meant to me

I cried for you
And the sky cried for you
And when you went
I became a hopeless drifter
But this life was not for you
Though I learned from you
That beauty need only be a whisper

Without you now I see
How fragile the world can be
And I know you've gone away
But in my heart you'll always stay

I cried for you
When the sky cried for you
And when you went
I became a hopeless drifter
But this life was not for you
Though I learned from you
That beauty need only be a whisper
That beauty need only be a whisper

SIA: I'M IN HERE


I cannot get out this song of my head. I'M IN HERE, the desperately call of help that bring us SIA, one of our favourite singer-songwriters. We can listen this song in two versions: Piano and voice version, and Album version: Hope you like.


ALBUM VERSION



LYRICS

I’m in here.
Can anybody see me?
Can anybody help?

I’m in here,
A prisoner of history.
Can anybody help?

Can you hear my call? Are you coming to get me now?
I’ve been waiting for you to come rescue me
I need you to hold all of the sadness I can not…
Live with inside of me

I’m in here.
I’m trying to tell you something.
Can anybody help?

I’m in here.
I’m calling out but you cant hear.
Can anybody help?

Can you hear my call? Are you coming to get me now?
I’ve been waiting for you to come rescue me.
I need you to hold, all of the sadness I can not…
Live with inside of me.

I’m crying out.
I’m backing down.
I am feeling it all.
Stuck inside these walls, tell me there is hope for me.
Is anybody out there listening?

Can you hear my call? Are you coming to get me now?
I’ve been waiting for you to come rescue me.
I need you to hold, all of the sadness I can not…
Live with inside of me


Can you hear my call? Are you coming to get me now?
I’ve been waiting for you to come rescue me.
I need you to hold, all of the sadness I can not…
Live with inside of me.


I’m in here.
Can anybody hear me?
Can anybody help?

CLARE MAGUIRE: THE SHIELD AND THE SWORD


We talked about CLARE MAGUIRE in the past. THE SHIELD AND THE SWORD is a song that has something to hook me and I think her video is perfect to Halloween Eve. Hope you like.



In an acustic performance.




LYRICS

You and I
Felt so good to begin with didn’t we?
Well now it seems there’s far too many adverts in between
And we don’t speak
So we’re left in constant silence
It’s haunting me
So I’m ready now to fight this

You have the shield
I’ll take the sword
I no longer love you
No longer love you
I’m not afraid of danger in the dark
I no longer love you
No longer love you

You and I aren’t working
Burning on the bridges now
We’re trapped inside
Screaming won’t somebody get me out

You have the shield
I’ll take the sword
I no longer love you
No longer love you
I’m not afraid of danger in the dark
I no longer love you
No longer love you

I no longer love you
No longer love you
No longer love you
No longer love you

And we don’t speak
So we’re left in constant silence
And it’s haunting me
So I’m ready now to fight this

You have the shield
I’ll take the sword
I no longer love you
No longer love you
I’m not afraid of danger in the dark
I no longer love you
No longer love you
[x2]

You and I
Felt so good to begin with didn’t we?
But now it seems these shields and swords are haunting me

Jesca Hoop: The Kingdom Music Video from Filmatics on Vimeo.

LYRICS

All of the falling on the ground
holder in ground
I lay down a shrine
and I come with the autumn to tear it down
orange and brown
and I lay a soft down
for all the waiting old and thine
brethren bathing bones and brine
separate your light from mine
multiply

Under the spell of full November moon
light on the broom
frost in my room
in through a window came a ghost I knew
oh she paid me a visit while I was in my bed
sleepy, she said,
"sleep as though dead
for in the morning you are called"
is what she said
To the high desert all is raging
you must go to the battlefield
and follow the cry of men rampaging
and gather the ones that won't heal

Down through a cloud of smoke
to the promised land
many are dead
river runs red
for my god and for my king
is what he said

Oh I came down to my knees
with my lips to his ear
my hand to his chest
his wounded breast
for my god and for my king
I will not rest

But in the high desert
you are dying
for your god and his ghost and the son
do not hold to the earth on which you are lying
for the kingdom can never be won

All of the falling on the ground
holder in ground
I lay down a shrine
and I come with the autumn to tear it down
orange and brown
and I lay a soft down
for all the waiting old and thine
brethren bathing bones and brine
separate your light from mine
let go of the earth
