I must confess I am a grat fan of JESCA HOOP, I need to listen her extremely adictive music twice on a week This is THE KINGDOM a magic song with a great video. Hope you like.



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

THE SUNDAYS: HERE'S WHERE THE STORY ENDS.


Today I want to remember one of my favourite songs of all the times. This beautiful song is HERE'S WHERE THE STORY ENDS that belongs to a british band called THE SUNDAYS and it was recorded in 1989. Hope you like.



LYRICS

People I know, places I go, make me feel tongue-tied
I can see how people look down, they're on the inside
here's where the story ends
people I see, weary of me showing my good side
I can see how people look down
I'm on the outside
here's where the story ends
ooh here's where the story ends

it's that little souvenir of a terrible year
which makes my eyes feel sore
oh I never should have said, the books that you read
were all I loved you for
it's that little souvenir of a terrible year
which makes me wonder why
and it's the memories of your shed that make me turn red
surprise, surprise, surprise

crazy I know, places I go
make me feel so tired
I can see how people look down
I'm on the outside
oh here's where the story ends
ooh here's where the story ends

it's that little souvenir of a terrible year
which makes my eyes feel sore
and who ever would've thought the books that you brought
were all I loved you for
oh the devil in me said, go down to the shed
I know where I belong
but the only thing I ever really wanted to say
was wrong, was wrong, was wrong

it's that little souvenir of a colourful year
which makes me smile inside
so I cynically, cynically say, the world is that way
surprise, surprise, surprise, surprise, surprise
here's where the story ends
ooh here's where the story ends

FLORENCE + THE MACHINE: WHAT THE WATER GAVE ME.


Finally we can enjoy "Ceremonials", the new album of FLORENCE + THE MACHINE. Can She overcome the critical and commercial success of their previous album? You can bet if you want. WHAT THE WATER GAVE ME is her first single. Hope you like.




LYRICS

Time it took us
To where the water was
That's what the water gave me
And time goes quicker
Between the two of us
Oh, my love, don't forsake me
Take what the water gave me

Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow
Pockets full of stones

Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow

And don't pour at us
The world's beast of a burden
You've been holding on a long time
And all this longing
And the shields are left to rust
That's what the water gave us

So lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow
Pockets full of stones

Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow

'Cause they took your loved ones
But returned them in exchange for you
But would you have it any other way?
Would you have it any other way?
You could have had it any other way

'Cause she's a crueller mistress
And the bargain must be made
But oh, my love, don't forget me
When I let the water take me

So lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow
Pockets full of stones

Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow

So lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow
Pockets full of stones

Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow

CHARLOTTE GAINSBOURG: HEAVEN CAN WAIT.


CHARLOTTE GAINSBOURG is a famous french actress and singer with both of most famous parents of France. One of my favourite song of Gainsbourg is HEAVEN CAN WAIT, with the collaboration of BECK. The video is one of the most disturbing thing I remember. Hope you like.




In a Live Performance



LYRICS

She’s sliding, she’s sliding down to the depth of the world
She’s fighting, she’s fighting the urge to make a …

Heaven can wait
and hell’s too far ago
Somewhere between
what you need and what you know
And they’re trying to drive that escalator into the ground

She’s hiding, she’s hiding on a battleship of baggage and bones
There’s thunder, there’s lightening in an avalanche of faces you know

Heaven can wait
and hell’s too far ago
Somewhere between
what you need and what you know
And they’re trying to drive that escalator into the ground

You left your credentials in a greyhound station
with a first aid kit and a flashlight
Going to a …. unknown

Heaven can wait
and hell’s too far ago
Somewhere between
what you need and what you know
And they’re trying to drive that escalator into the ground

MADS LANGER: RIDING ELEVATORS.


MADS LANGER is a danish singer-songwriter. Everybody is talking about his wonderful cover of "You're not alone" from Olive. But we prefer to show one of his own songs like RIDING ELEVATORS. Langer is on European Tour now. He will visit Spain in the first week of November. Hope you like.



LYRICS

waiting to put my feet on the ground
I'm tired of going up and down
But sometimes it feels safer waiting.

It's beautiful at the top
But i never really get a chance to stop
It feels like i am falling again

Doors are opening doors are closing
People come and go
But i'm still riding elevators

Never here or there
On the ground or in the air
People come and go
But i'm still riding elevators

Everyone seems to have somewhere to go
I dream of going with them but i don't
I'm looking down always on every floor
But i never really find what i'm looking for
But i keep looking for you

Doors are opening doors are closing
People come and go
But i'm still riding elevators

Never here or there
On the ground or in the air
People come and go
But i'm still riding elevators

If i get off and i could get lost
Or better if you were there
I wouldn't have to keep riding elevators

Doors are opening doors are closing
People come and go
But i'm still riding elevators

Never here or there
On the ground or in the air
People come and go
But i'm still riding elevators

Never here or there
On the ground or in the air
People come and go
But i'm still riding elevators.

ZOEY VAN GOEY: WE DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF BREAD.


Last year, a friend of mine recommended me ZOEY VAN GOEY and I cannot stop to listen their album debut "The Cage Was Unlocked Along" (2009). They have published a new record this year too. But I prefer to remember an old and amazing song. One of funniest videos I've ever seen, belongs to WE DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF BREAD. An incredible song. Hope you like.



LYRICS

Don't leave the house today
I've got the fear
You'll be stolen by bandits
And taken far from here

They'll put you in a cage
Made of skeleton bones
I'll get a ransom call
From my telephone, whoa oh

We don't have that kind of money
We don't have that kind of bread
Stay under the covers
With me instead

Don't leave the house today
On your bicycle
You've got find your body
With the veins in your heart and your ventricles

The guy's aiming to hit you
Speeding down the road
They wanna see you in a body cast
From your head to your toes

We don't have that kind of glue
We don't have that kind of X-ray
Stay under the covers
With me today

Don't leave, don't leave
Don't leave, don't leave
Don't leave, don't leave
Don't leave, don't leave
Don't leave, don't leave
Don't leave, don't leave
Don't leave, don't leave
Don't leave, don't leave

We don't have that kind of money
We don't have that kind of bread
Stay under the covers
With me instead

We don't have that kind of glue
We don't have that kind of X-Ray
Stay under the covers
With me today

Don't leave, don't leave
Don't leave, don't leave
Don't leave, don't leave
Don't leave, don't leave

VIENNA TENG: GRAVITY.


VIENNA TENG is an American singer-songwriter of Taiwanese descent. Her discography is very interesting. She has published four studio albums to date. We chose GRAVITY, a beautiful song from her album debut "Waking Hour" (2002). Hope you like



LYRICS

Hey love
Is that the name you're meant to have
For me to call

Look love
They've given up believing
They've turned aside our stories of the gentle fall

But don't you believe them
Don't you drink their poison too
These are the scars that words have carved
On me

Hey love
That's the name we've long held back
From the core of truth

So don't turn away now
I am turning in revolution
These are the scars that silence carved
On me

This is the same place
No, not the same place
This is the same place, love
No, not the same place we've been before

Hey, love
I am a constant satellite
Of your blazing sun
My love
I obey your law of gravity
This is the fate you've carved on me
The law of gravity
This is the fate you've carved on me
On me.

LIZ PHAIR: EXTRAORDINARY.


I Know. I Know that LIZ PHAIR recieved her worst critics from this album. But a bad album from Phair is much better than the best albums of another artists. I Think EXTRAORDINARY is a great song. Of those songs that inspire you to live life like if were the last second. Hope you like.



LYRICS

You think that I go home at night
Take off my clothes, turn out the lights
But I burn letters that I write
To you, to make you love me

Yeah, I drive naked through the park
And run the stop sign in the dark
Stand in the street, yell out my heart
To make, to make you love me

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho

You may not believe in me
But I believe in you
So I still take the trash out
Does that make me too normal for you?

So dig a little deeper, cause
You still don't get it yet
See me lickin' my lips, need a primitive fix
And I'll make, I'll make you love me

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess

See me jump through hoops for you
You stand there watching me performing
What exactly do you do?
Have you ever thought it's you that's boring?
Who the hell are you?

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho

Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho

Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho

Average every day sane psycho

SARA BAREILLES: UNCHARTED.


I Know that SARA BAREILLES was here before, but I'm completely hooked to UNCHARTED a song I cannot get out of my head, and I really like The video with all those friends singing: Ben Folds, Ingrid Michaelson, Adam Levine, Vanessa Carlton, Tengan & Sara, Josh Groban, Jennifer Nettles... Hope you like.



LYRICS


No words, My tears won't make any room for more,
And it don't hurt, like anything I've ever felt before, this is
No broken heart,
No familiar scars,
This territory goes uncharted...

Just me, in a room sunk down in a house in a town, and I
Don't breathe, no I never meant to let it get away from me
Now, too much to hold, everybody wants has to get their hands on gold,
And I want uncharted.
Stuck under this ceiling I made, I can't help but feeling...

I'm going down,
Follow if you want, I won't just hang around,
Like you'll show me where to go,
I'm already out, of foolproof ideas, so don't ask me how
To get started, it's all uncharted...

La la la-a-a-a.
Oh-h-h.

Each day, countin' up the minutes, till I get alone, 'cause I can't stay
In the middle of it all, it's nobody's fault, but I'm
So alone, Never knew how much I didn't know,
Oh, everything is uncharted.
I know I'm getting nowhere, when I only sit and stare like...

I'm going down,
Follow if you want, I won't just hang around,
Like you'll show me where to go,
I'm already out, of foolproof ideas, so don't ask me how
To get started, it's all uncharted.

Jump start my kaleidoscope heart,
Love to watch the colors fade,
They may not make sense,
But they sure as hell made me.

I won't go as a passenger, no
Waiting for the road to be laid
Though I may be going down,
I'm taking flame over burning out

Compare, where you are to where you want to be, and you'll get nowhere

I'm going down,
Follow if you want, I won't just hang around,
Like you'll show me where to go,
I'm already out, foolproof ideas, so don't ask me how
To get started,
Oh-h
I'm going down,
Follow if you want, I won't just hang around,
Like you'll show me where to go,
I'm already out, foolproof ideas, so don't ask me how
To get started, it's all uncharted...
La la la-a-a-a.

LIZZ WRIGHT: TROUBLE.


One of the most fascinating singer-songwriters of the last years in any doubt is LIZZ WRIGHT. Today I want to remember TROUBLE, an old song from her second album "Dreaming wide awake" (2005). Simply wonderful. Hope you like.



LYRICS

Trouble in the air
I don't want it
But I´ve to breathe
It´s coming through the door
Behind the shadows that surround me when I sleep
Somehow I know
that I can´t pray this away
I´ll keep my head down and get up on this train
This train
Ooo ...

I´m gonna ride this pain like a wave
Lord, make me over I don´t wann e afraid
And when my time is come and gone
I don´t wanna be the one who can´t let go

What if I get lost
I call out to you and you don´t save me?
The water comes too close
I don´t have the time to give
what you gave to me?
Well, as long as my name don´t change, I´ll be the same
I loved you more than time
Forever can´t take that away
Ooo ...
Can´t take that away

Just let me ride this pain like a wave
Lord, make me over I don't wanna be afraid
And when my time is come and gone
I don´t wanna be the one who can´t let go

Yeah, yeah, yeah

There is a river
Running by the train
It ain´t troubled
It´s just laying there, wading in the wind
Wading in the wind
Wading in the wind

Just let me ride this pain like a wave
Lord, make me over I don't wanna be afraid
And when my time is come and gone
I don´t wanna be the one who can´t let go

Let me ride this pain like a wave
Make me over I don't wanna be afraid
And when my time is come and gone
I don´t wanna be the one who can´t let go
Yeah, yeah
I´ll move on
Yeah, yeah
Ride
Yeah, yeah
Ooo, yeah ...

INGRID MICHAELSON: EVERYBODY.


One of the happier song I've remembered is EVERYBODY by INGRID MICHAELSON, and I have lots of reason to be happy today. Michaelson is an american singer-songwriter who has published four albums to date. This song belongs to "Everybody" (2009). Hope you make it happy.





LYRICS

We have fallen down again tonight,
In this world it's hard to get it right.
Trying to make your heart fit like a glove,
What you need is love, love, love.

Chorus (x2):
Everybody, everybody wants to love,
Everybody, everybody wants to be loved.
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Happy is the heart that still feels pain,
Darkness drains and light will come again.
Swing open up your chest and let it in,
Just let the love, love, love begin.

[Chorus x2]

Everybody knows the love
Everybody holds the love,
Everybody folds for love.
Everybody feels the love,
Everybody steals the love,
Everybody heals with love.

Oh oh oh
Just let the love, love, love begin

[Chorus]

Just let the love, love, love begin

[Chorus]

[Chorus x4]

NIZLOPI: JCB.


I want to remember one old hit from NIZLOPI an english duet who got Number One in U.K. in 2005 with this nostalgic song called JCB or THE JCB SONG. A beautiful song to remember our childhood and the happiness of ancient times. Hope you like.




LYRICS

Well, I'm rumblin' in this JCB
I'm five years old and my dad's giant sitting beside me
And the engine rattles my bum like berserk
While we're singing
'Don't forget your shovel if you want to go to work!'

My dad's totally had a bloody hard day
But he's been good fun and bubblin and jokin' away
And the procession of cars stuck behind
Are gettin all impatient and angry, but we don't mind

And we're holding up the bypass, oh
Me and my dad having a top laugh
Oh woah

Sittin on the toolbox, oh
And I'm so glad I'm not in school, boss
So glad I'm not in school

Oh no..

And we pull over to let the cars pass
And pull off again, speedin by the summer green grass
And we're like giants up here in our big yellow digger
Like zoids, or transformers, or maybe even bigger

And I wanna transform into a Tyrannosaurus Rex!
And eat up all the bullies and the teachers and their pets
And I'll tell all my mates, my dad's ba barakas
Only with a JCB and Bruce Lee's nunchuckas

And we're holding up the bypass, oh
Me and my dad having a top laugh
Oh woah

Sittin on the toolbox, oh
And I'm so glad I'm not in school, boss
So glad I'm not in school

And we're holding up the bypass, oh oh
Me and my dad having a top laugh
Oh woah

I'm sittin on the toolbox, oh oh
And I'm so glad I'm not in school, boss
So glad I'm not in school

Said I'm Luke, I'm five, and my dad's Bruce Lee
Drives me round in his JCB
I'm Luke, I'm five, and my dad's Bruce Lee
Drives me round in his JCB
I'm Luke, I'm five, and my dad's Bruce Lee
Drives me round in his JCB
I'm Luke, I'm five, and my dad's Bruce Lee
Drives me round

And we're holding up the bypass, woah
Me and my dad havin a top laugh, oh woah

And I'm sittin on the toolbox, oh
And I'm so glad I'm not in school, boss
So glad I'm not in school

Aw, said
I'm Luke, I'm five, and my dad's Bruce Lee
Drives me round in his JCB
I'm Luke, I'm five, and my dad's Bruce Lee
Drives me round in his

Aw, I'm Luke, I'm five, and my dad's Bruce Lee
Drives me round in his JCB
I'm Luke, I'm five, and my dad's Bruce Lee
Drives me round in his JCB
