Clocks

Som igår så lyssnar jag på Coldplay. Ärligt talat så lyssnar jag inte så överdrivet mycket på Coldplay, men kan ju inte undvika det faktum att de har några sköna låtar. Samma sak med den här låten.

Texten finns i videon!


God Put A Smile Upon Your Face

Nog för att jag ofta lyssnar på Foo Fighters. Det gör jag även idag, men jag lyssnar också på Coldplay för tillfället. Denna låten är jävligt skön rent instrumentalt.

Lyssna och njut!


I've gotta' say I'm on my way down
God give me style and give me grace
God put a smile upon my face

Where do we go to draw the line
I've gotta' say I've wasted all your time, honey honey
Where do I go to fall from grace
God put a smile upon your face, yeah

Now when you work it out I'm worse than you
Yeah when you work it out I want it too
Now when you work out where to draw the line
Your guess is as good as mine

Where do we go nobody knows
Don't ever say you're on your way down, when
God gave you style and gave you grace
And put a smile upon your face, oh yeah

Now when you work it out I'm worse than you
Yeah when you work it out I want it too
Now when you work out where to draw the line
Your guess is as good as mine

It's as good as mine
It's as good as mine
It's as good as mine
Na nana nana, Na nana nana
As good as mine
As good as mine
As good as mine
As good as mine

Where do we go nobody knows
Don't ever say you're on your way down, when
God gave you style and gave you grace
And put a smile upon your face

My star

Kommer ni ihåg den här gamla godingen? Har väl ca 10 år på nacken eller något i den stilen. Lyssnade på den en del när jag var liten grabb och såg ofta musikvideon. Gruppen heter Brainstorm. Vet inte hur längesen det var jag hörde den här låten senast! 


My friends gonna call me: hey dreamer
The stars you are watching are so far
Tonight I know I will get there
By plane or by bus - right to my star
Pretend there are things you just don't know
In spite someone's told you are so cute
You have to ask and I will show
The snow in the summer or so, so

If my star would fall
Or disappear at all

I will follow my star till the end of my days,
And my heart's gonna lead me through so many ways,
And if you gonna join me I'll be your guide,
Baby, 'never say never', be my 'Runaway bride'

My friends gonna tell me: just calm down
The clouds you are walking are so high
This is my chance, and I'll invite
All the dreamers and lovers to fly (fly).
I'm back from the future, life goes on,
But still I remember my promise
You have to ask and I will show
The snow in the summer or so, so

If my star would fall
Or disappear at all

I will follow my star till the end of my days,
And my heart's gonna lead me through so many ways,
And if you gonna join me I'll be your guide,
Baby, 'never say never', be my 'Runaway bride'
My 'Runaway bride'

If my star would fall
Or disappear all

I will follow my star till the end of my days,
And my heart's gonna lead me through so many ways,
And if you gonna join me I'll be your guide,
Baby, 'never say never', be my 'Runaway bride'
Be my 'Runaway...

P.S. Blev inspirerad och påmind om denna gamla goding av addspirit.

The Pretender

Jag passar på att lägga upp den här låten medan det är lugnt i baljan. Utan större överraskning så står Foo Fighters återigen på schemat.

Lyssna och njut! Texten finns i klippet. 

Let It Die

Efter lite köttbullspanna från Findus är det återigen dags för musik. Nu kanske ni trodde jag skulle fortsätta på samma spår som igår med Sum 41, men icke sa Nicke! Foo Fighters för hela slanten nu! Jag var tvungen att spana lite längre bak i arkivet ifall jag lagt upp den här låten tidigare. Det hade jag inte gjort. Då blev jag lite glad, eftersom det här är ännu en grym låt från Foo Fighters. Man skulle kunna tolka låtens mening handlar om människor som har någonting vackert eller fantastiskt och inte själva inser det, att de låter det gå till spillo ungefär. Därav Let It Die.

Favoritstycken i låten: huvudmelodin i verserna, trumvirveln samt slutet när Dave Grohl skriker som fan. Får gåshud ibland! Nåja, lyssna och avgör själva!


Heart of gold but it lost its pride
Beautiful veins and bloodshot eyes
I've seen your face in another light
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
In too deep and out of time.
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

A simple man and his blushing bride
Intravenous, intertwined
Hearts gone cold your hands were tied
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
In too deep and out of time.
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

Do you ever think of me?
You're so considerate.
Do you ever think of me?
Oh, so considerate.

In too deep and lost in time
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Beautiful veins and bloodshot eyes
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Hearts gone cold and hands were tied.
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

Do you ever think of me?
You're so considerate.
Did you ever think of me?
Oh, so considerate.

In too deep and lost in time
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Beautiful veins and bloodshot eyes
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Hearts gone cold and hands were tied.
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Why'd you have to go and let this die?

Why'd you have to go and let this die?
Why'd you have to go and let this die?
Why'd you have to go and let this die?
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

I´m not the one

Recensionen är på gång. Under tiden får ni lyssna på lite musik. En gång i tiden, långt innan jag började nöta Foo Fighters på heltid, lyssnade jag sjukt mycket på Sum 41. Denna låt har jag kanske inte lyssnat på så överdrivet mycket, men det går inte att undvika att den är skön, speciellt introt innan versen kommer igång.

Nåja, ska inte gå in så mycket mer på det här just nu. Sitt istället och lyssna!




Welcome to obsession
It makes the world go round
We're made up by the people we surround
So
We live and die for shit we don't need
Well maybe, it's the price of envy

With these eyes I look out for me
But everyone fades away who don't see
Nothing's gonna change
Why
We're going down in flames
So
I'm not the one

Don't wait for me
Cause I won't just sit by
While you just bleed
Myself and others dry
Don't wait for me
To be there in the end
When you don't see
The truth you just pretend
Don't wait for me

What is the solution
We already know
There's no telling how far this could go
No
You're near your time but you just don't see
Cause you''re just
Part of this game

There's nothing you can do to save yourself
You leave your life in the hands of someone else
You'll never let it go
Why
It's the only way you know
Know
I'm not the one

Don't wait for me
Cause I won't just sit by
While you just bleed
Myself and others dry
Don't wait for me
To be there in the end
When you don't see
The truth you just pretend
Don't wait for me

When did we begin
To let ourselves give in
How'd it come to this
Miserable bliss

Just take the rest of
Just take the best of me
Just take the rest of
Just take the best of me

Don't wait for me
Cause I won't just sit by
While you just bleed
Myself and others dry
Don't wait for me
To be there in the end
When you don't see
The truth you just pretend
Don't wait for me

Thunderstruck

I och med att jag ska fara och kolla Ac/Dc på Stockholms Stadion den 3 juni så tänkte jag: "Varför inte ta och börja ladda upp inför denna spelning?" Hur gör man då det på bästa sätt? Jo, genom att lyssna på deras låtar.

Den här låten tycker jag personligen är en av Ac/Dc:s bästa låtar. Klart att det finns många bra låtar som de har gjort, men just den här har jag nog lyssnat allra mest på genom åren. Nu är jag ju inget helhjärtat Ac/Dc-fan på det sättet, men visst fan har de många bra låtar. Varav Thunderstruck är en av dem.

Så nu laddar vi upp, alla som ska till Stockholms Stadion den 3 juni 2010! OCh förhoppningsvis blir det en kväll som vi sent kommer att glömma!


na na na na na na na na na na.. (Thunder 10 times)
I was caught
In the middle of a railroad track (Thunder)

Looked Around
And I knew there was no turning back (Thunder)
My mind raced
And I thought what could I do (Thunder)
And I knew
There was no help, no help from you (Thunder)

Sound of the drums
Beatin' in my heart
The thunder of guns
Tore me apart
You've been.. thunderstruck

Went down the highway
Broke the limit, we hit the town
Went through to Texas, yeah Texas
And we had some fun
We met some girls
Some dancers who gave a good time
Broke all the rules, played all the fools
Yeah, yeah, they, they, they blew our minds

I was shakin' at the knees
Could I come again please?
Yeah the ladies were too kind
You've been - thunderstruck, thunderstruck
Yeah yeah yeah, thunderstruck

Oh, thunderstruck
Yeah

Now we're shaking at the knees
Could I come again please?

Thunderstruck, thunderstruck
Yeah yeah yeah, thunderstruck
Thunderstruck, yeah, yeah, yeah

Said yeah, it's alright
We're doing fine
Yeah, it's alright
We're doing fine
So fine

Thunderstruck, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Tunderstruck, thunderstruck, thunderstruck
Whoa baby, baby, thunderstruck
You've been thunderstruck, thunderstruck
Thunderstruck, thunderstruck
You've been thunderstruck

You know my name

Eftersom jag inte riktigt finner inspiration för att skriva någonting av större vikt så lägger jag in lite musik istället. Chris Cornell får stå för musiken idag. Kommer ni ihåg Casino Royale? Ni vet, första bondfilmen med Daniel Craig i huvudrollen.

Hursomhelst: musik! I övrigt: ha en trevlig tisdag!



Later.


P.S. Har varit och hämtat ut ett paket från ICA. Kanske visar senare vad det var i paketet.

Born In The U.S.A.

Som jag lovade senaste gången jag publicerade ett musikinlägg så lovade jag att nästa inlägg skulle tillägnas Bruce Springsteen-fans bland min lilla skara med läsare. Tja, jag ska inte taskig och bryta det löftet. Min personliga relation till Bruce Springsteens musik, hur skulle jag vilja beskriva den? Ytlig kanske är det bästa ordet i det här sammanhanget. Jag har hört en del av hans musik genom åren, och egentligen har jag aldrig haft någonting emot hans musik heller. Det har bara fallit sig naturligt att jag inte har lyssnat/diggat på Bruce så mycket.

Fast under senaste tiden har det börja smyga sig lite närmare. Bruce-suget, alltså. Den låten jag gillar mest? Inte helt onaturligt blir mitt svar Born In The U.S.A. Det är ju klart att han har många andra bra låtar, men personligen fastnar den här bättre. Kan bero på trumtakten är så jäkla... skön. Känns mäktigt på något sätt. Bevis för min teori angående den mäktiga känslan ser ni på detta klipp.

Nåja, studioversionen är också bra. Here it comes!


Born down in a dead man's town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
You end up like a dog that's been beat too much
Till you spend half your life just covering up

Born in the USA
I was born in the USA
I was born in the USA
Born in the USA

Got in a little hometown jam
So they put a rifle in my hand
Send me off to a foreign land
To go and kill the yellow man

Born in the USA
I was born in the USA
I was born in the USA
I was born in the USA
Born in the USA

Come back home to the refinery
Hiring man says, 'son if it was up to me'
Went down to see my V.A. man
He said, 'son don't you understand'

I had a brother at Khe Sahn, fighting off the Viet cong
They're still there, he's all gone
He had a woman he loved in Saigon
I got a picture of him in her arms now

Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
I'm ten years burning down the road
Nowhere to run, ain't got nowhere to go

Born in the USA
I was born in the USA
Born in the USA
I'm a long gone Daddy in the USA
Born in the USA
Born in the USA
Born in the USA
I'm a cool rocking Daddy in the USA

Aurora

Då är det återigen dags för musik! Eller musik och musik: Foo Fighters. Spoiler-alert: jag lovar att nästa musikinlägg blir tillägnat Bruce Springsteen-fans bland er läsare!

Men nu ska vi inte gå händelserna i förväg. Som sagt: Foo Fighters. Vid det här laget vet ni antagligen att jag är ganska så besatt utav Foo Fighters just nu. Jag menar, jag drömde ju till och med i natt om det här alldeles fantastiska bandet! Ingen aning om vad drömmen i sig ska betyda, eller om den betyder någonting alls, men om det skulle visa sig ha någon betydelse så skulle det säkert vara att sprida vidare Foo Fighters musik. Vissa är besatta av Caroline af Ugglas, andra kanske är besatta av Westlife (jag smällde bara till med något). Jag är besatt av Foo Fighters för tillfället, helt enkelt.

Skit i det nu! Musik! Ja! Denna gången en låt som... några kanske inte har hört. En rätt lugn låt som heter exakt det som står i rubriken (se rubrik för låttitel).



You believe there's something else
To relieve your emptiness
And you dream about yourself
And you bleed and breathe the air
And it's on and on and on and on...

I just kinda died for you
You just kinda stared at me
We will always have that chance
We can do this one more time

Hell yeah, I remember aurora(x2)
All this time
Hell yeah, I remember aurora
Take me now, we can spin the sun around

And the stars will all come out
Then we'll turn and come back down
Turn and come back down
You believe there's somewhere else

Where it's easier than this
And you see outside yourself
And you buy the hole you'll fill
But still it's on and on and on and on...

Hell yeah, I remember aurora (x2)
All this time
Hell yeah , I remember aurora
Take me now, we can spin the sun around
And the stars will all come out

Then we'll turn and come back down
Turn and come back down
On and on and on aurora wait for everyone
Wait till the last one's done

On and on and on aurora wait for everyone
Wait till the last one's done
Take me now, we can spin the sun around
And the stars will all come out

Then we'll turn and come back down
Turn and come back down (x3)
On and on and on and on...

Work It Out (Music & Lyrics)

Jag behövde inte vara särskilt aktiv under fribadet tidigare idag. Tog bara en kvart ungefär, sedan spenderades mycket dötid med NHL '10.

Men det har inte med själv inlägget att göra! Nej, nej, nej. Dags för Music & Lyrics igen! Jurassic 5 den här gången. Den här låten fastnade på hjärnan imorse när jag gjorde mig klar för jobbet. Kanske inte den bästa låten av J5 enligt mig, men helt klart acceptabelt skön.

Om det var någon som trodde det hade någonting med Anderas Johnson att göra... ack vad fel ni hade! För övrigt så är hans låt absolut ingenting att hänga i granen (alternativt tallen) om ni frågar mig.




[Dave Matthews]
A don't stop stop your dreamin
Let yourself float apon the notion
We can work it out, we gon work it out baby
Go ahead lose yourself inside this opportunity
That we gonna make it right now, make it right now

[Marc 7even]
We live and we learn, we crash and we burn
Right now my only rhyme is this lesson I learned
You talk about trust, I talk about lust
Its not appealin as you truly speak your feelings
I be lookin at the ceiling, so concealing
I shoulda put my heart on the table
Knowin I was good and able but instead I fed your fables
If I could have you back best believe it'd be forever
Cause each and every day you would hear those four letters

[Dave Matthews]
A don't stop stop your dreamin
Let yourself float apon the notion
We can work it out, we gon work it out baby
Go ahead lose yourself inside this opportunity
That we gonna make it right now, make it right now

[Chali 2na]
These are different times but we feel the same pains
The blood of mankind runnin through the same veins
We'd like to make it right some which it remain tame
Same crimes even though they names changed
And we like different minds workin off the same brain
Passengers on different cars steppin off the same train
In the end, makin it rights the main aim
Different parts of the picture highlight the same frame

[Dave Matthews]
A don't stop stop your dreamin
Let yourself float apon the notion
We can work it out, we gon work it out baby
Go ahead lose yourself inside this opportunity
That we gonna make it right now, make it right now

[Akil]
Now if you know what I know you need to work it out
If you ain't happy with yourself you need to work it out
You havin problems with your family then work it
The things we go through just to work it
I work it out when the situations seems unworkable
unreversible but God is most merciful
Many works, Many men converse
With soul search sweat it out
when they tryin to work it out

[Soup]
With the constant complaint, we other gonna make it fly
Or we aint, I already know what some of ya think
Ima talk a hip hop and how bad its got
Then tryna pull a brother, im not
lookin for nobody to judge, you said you ain't I never said you was
Im just tryna get with ya and pose in the same picture
So this mic thing can move the right thing do the right thing
Made for your life game, plus my man might sing

[Dave Matthews]
A don't stop stop your dreamin
Let yourself float apon the notion
We can work it out, we gon work it out baby
Go ahead lose yourself inside this opportunity
That we gonna make it right now, make it right now

A don't stop stop your dreamin
Let yourself float apon the notion
We can work it out, we gon work it out baby
Go ahead lose yourself inside this opportunity
That we gonna make it right now, make it right now

Revolution Begins (Music & Lyrics)

För att kompensera för mitt bristande engagemang för bloggandet så lägger jag upp en låt. Denna gången är det inte Foo Fighters i alla fall. Texten till låten lägger jag till för det kan vara svårt att höra vad sångerskan sjunger.

Japp, ni läste rätt! Det är en tjej som sjunger i den här gruppen.



Since the day that you were born the wheels are in motion
Turning even faster – play your part in the big machine
The stage is set, the road is chosen
Your fate preordained
We are watching you – every step of the way

Never too late to stand your ground – revolution begins
In you – in me – Revolution!

Once lost – lost in their game
Mental chains breaking now
Set yourself free
Who are they to tell you what to do?
The stage is not set, the road is not chosen
You fate not preordained
They are losing control – every step of the way

This is revolution!

Me against the world (Music & Lyrics)

Sitter och lyssnar på några låtar av Tupac för tillfället. En som jag riktigt har fastnat för är denna:



2Pac] It's just me against the world
[girl] Oooohhh, oooohhh
[2Pac] Nuttin to lose..
It's just me against the world baby
[girl] Oahhhh, oahhhahh
[2Pac] I got nuttin to lose
It's just me against the world
[girl] Oh-hahhh
[2Pac] Stuck in the game
Me against the world baby

Verse One: 2Pac

Can you picture my prophecy?
Stress in the city, the cops is hot for me
The projects is full of bullets, the bodies is droppin
There ain't no stoppin me
Constantly movin while makin millions
Witnessin killings, leavin dead bodies in abandoned buildings
Carries to children cause they're illin
Addicted to killin and the appeal from the cap peelin
Without feelin, but will they last or be blasted?
Hard headed bastard
Maybe he'll listen in his casket -- the aftermath
More bodies being buried -- I'm losing my homies in a hurry
They're relocating to the cemetary
Got me worried, stressin, my vision's blurried
The question is will I live?  No one in the world loves me
I'm headed for danger, don't trust strangers
Put one in the chamber whenever I'm feelin this anger
Don't wanna make excuses, cause this is how it is
What's the use unless we're shootin no one notices the youth
It's just me against the world baby

[girl] Me against the world
[2Pac] It's just me against the world
[girl] Ooooh yeah, ooo-hooo
[2Pac] It's just me against the world
[girl] Me against the world
[2Pac] Cause it's just me against the world baby
[girl] Hey!!
[2Pac] Me against the world
[girl] Ooooh yeah
[2Pac] I got nuttin to lose
It's just me against the world baby
[girl] I got nothing to lose

Verse Two: Dramacydal

Could somebody help me?  I'm out here all by myself
See ladies in stores, Baby Capone's, livin wealthy
Pictures of my birth on this Earth is what I'm dreamin
Seein Daddy's semen, full of crooked demons, already crazy
and screamin I guess them nightmares as a child
had me scared, but left me prepared for a while
Is there another route?  For a crooked Outlaw
Veteran, a villian, a young thug, who one day shall fall

Everday there's mo' death, and plus I'm dough-less
I'm seein mo' reasons for me to proceed with thievin
Scheme on the scheming and leave they peeps grieving
Cause ain't no bucks to stack up, my nuts is backed up
I'm bout to act up, go load the Mac up, now watch me klacka
Tried makin fat cuts, but yo it ain't workin
And Evil's lurking, I can see him smirking
when I gets to pervin, so what?
Go put some work in, and make my mail, makin sales
Risking 25 with a 'L', but oh well

[girl] Me against the world
[2Pac] With nuttin to lose
It's just me against the world
[girl] Ooh yeah.. oooh-ooooh
[2Pac] It's just me against the world baby
[girl] Me against the world
[2Pac] I got nuttin to lose
It's just me against the world
[girl] Oahhhohh
[2Pac] Ha ha
It's just me against the world baby
[girl] Ha-ahh, HA-AHH!
[2Pac] With nuttin to lose
It's just me against the world baby
[girl] Me against the world, hoahhh
[2Pac] Me against the world
I got nuttin to lose
It's just me against the world baby
[girl] Ha-hahh (hehe) heyy!

Verse Three: 2Pac

With all this extra stressin
The question I wonder is after death, after my last breath
When will I finaly get to rest?  Through this supression
they punish the people that's askin questions
And those that possess, steal from the ones without possesions
The message I stress: to make it stop study your lessons
Don't settle for less - even the genius asks-es questions
Be grateful for blessings
Don't ever change, keep your essence
The power is in the people and politics we address
Always do your best, don't let the pressure make you panic
And when you get stranded
And things don't go the way you planned it
Dreamin of riches, in a position of makin a difference
Politicians and hypocrites, they don't wanna listen
If I'm insane, it's the fame made a brother change
It wasn't nuttin like the game
It's just me against the world

[girl] Me against the world
[2Pac] Nuttin to lose
It's just me against the world baby
[girl] Me against the world
[2Pac] Got me stuck in the game
It's just me against the world
[girl] Oahahhhh
[2Pac] I'd be ashamed to lose
It's just me against the world baby
[girl] Me against the world

Outro: 2Pac

Heh, hahahahahahah
That's right
I know it seem hard sometimes but uhh
Remember one thing
Through every dark night, there's a bright day after that
So no matter how hard it get, stick your chest out
Keep your head up, and handle it

[girl] Me against the world (3X)

Resolve (Music & Lyrics)

Helt ärligt, jag behöver nog en paus från allt vad utbildningar heter. Jag blir fullständigt förvirrad över allt jag läser. Vad behövs, vad behövs inte? Vad plugga, vad inte plugga? Jag släpper det ett tag. Däremot ska jag skicka ett mail till [email protected] och fråga vad som behövs för att plugga journalistik.

Jag kommer att bestämma mig inom snar framtid vad jag väljer att söka till, men inte idag. Jag lägger istället upp en låt utav Foo Fighters som jag brukar göra rätt ofta nuförtiden. Den här låten är riktigt skön. Inte för lugn och inte för hård. Lagom. Ja, det är rätt ord för den här låten. Första delen av refrängen passar nog ganska bra in på mig just nu: A little bit of resolve is what I need now. Nåja, nu ska jag inte sitta här och gräma mig över det! Jag tänker tagga upp inför utgången imorgon och se till att jag inte blir sjuk. En kopp te skulle sitta fint...

Hursomhelst, Foo Fighters med en riktigt skön låt såhär på kvällskvisten. Som sagt, inte för lugn och inte för hård. Lagom.



Something that I felt today
Something that I heard
Swinging from the chandelier
Hanging on your word
I remember watching you
Once upon a time
Dancing from across the room
In another life

(Chorus)
A little bit of resolve
Is what I need now
Pin me down
Show me how x2

Looking back to find my way
Never seemed so hard (so hard)
Yesterday's been laid to rest
Changing of the guard
I would never change a thing
Even if I could (I could)
All the songs we used to sing
Everything was good

(Chorus)
A little bit of resolve
Is what I need now
Pin me down
Show me how x2

One more year that you're not here
Has gone and passed you by
What happened to you? x2
One more tear that you won't hear
Has gone and passed you by
What happened to you? x2

(Chorus)
A little bit of resolve
Is what I need now
Pin me down
Show me how x2

One more year that you're not here
Has gone and passed you by
A little bit of resolve
A little bit of resolve
One more year that you're not here
Has gone and passed you by
A little bit of resolve

Blue Suede Shoes (Music & Lyrics)

Jag måste ha den skönaste ringsignalen för tillfället. Väldigt otippat med Elvis Presley, va? Brukar ju alltid tjata om Foo Fighters till höger och vänster. Men lyssna på den en stund. Snart kommer det fram att den passar näst intill perfekt som ringsignal! Bortsett från det så är ju låten riktigt skön.




Well, it's one for the money,
Two for the show,
Three to get ready,
Now go, cat, go

But don't you step on my blue suede shoes
You can do anything but lay off of my Blue suede shoes

Well, you can knock me down,
Step in my face,
Slander my name
All over the place

Do anything that you want to do, but uh-uh,
Honey, lay off of my shoes
Don't you step on my Blue suede shoes
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes

You can burn my house,
Steal my car,
Drink my liquor
From an old fruitjar

Do anything that you want to do, but uh-uh,
Honey, lay off of my shoes
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes.
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes

Next Year

De flesta som läser min blogg regelbundet vet att jag är ganska besatt av Foo Fighters just nu. Så även idag. I fall någon ny läsare har hittat hit: nu vet ni att jag för tillfället lyssnar sjukt mycket på Foo Fighters.

Nu är det ju klart att jag inte bara lyssnar på Foo Fighters hela tiden, men det börjar vara på gränsen till mani. Jag menar, hur kan man inte tycka om Foo Fighters låtar? Man bör i alla fall gilla två eller tre låtar av de, enligt mig. Jag tycker om... alldeles för många. Huruvida det är bra eller dåligt ska vi nog inte diskutera.



Jag skrev för lite drygt en månad sedan detta om låten End Over End: "Jag tror att jag har skaffat mig en ny favoritlåt!" Jag måste antagligen använda den här frasen igen eller inte använda den alls i fortsättningen.

Nåja, jag ska låta er få lyssna på låten nu! Sedan kan ni ju skriva era tankar och åsikter om låten om ni känner för det.



I'm in the sky tonight,
There I can keep by your side
Watching the wide world riot and hiding out
I'll be coming home next year

Into the sun we climb
Climbing our wings will burn white
Everyone strapped in tight
We'll ride it out
I'll be coming home next year

Come on get on get on
Take it till life runs out
No one can find us now,
Living with our heads underground

Into the night we shine
Lighting the way we glide by
Catch me if I get too high
When I come down
I'll be coming home next year

I'm in the sky tonight
There I can keep by your side
Watching the whole world wind around and round
I'll be coming home next year

Come on get on get on
Take it till life runs out
No one can find us now,
Living with our heads underground

I'll be coming home next year
Everything's alright up here
If I come down
I'll be coming home next year Say good-bye

If I Die Tonight (Music & Lyrics)

Min personliga åsikt om Tupac? Jag tycker att han är/var bra. Jag har kanske inte hört många av hans låtar, men de låtar jag har hört tycker jag har varit riktigt grymma.

Det tycker jag även om denna låt! Jag hade aldrig hört den förut förrän några minuter sedan. De inledande orden som han säger innan han börjar rappa ryckte verkligen med mig. Sedan är det ju klart att gunget i beatet är riktigt skönt. Lyssna på låten nu och försök föreställa er denna låten med en riktigt tung bas! Jag tror det hade varit hur grymt som helst.



A coward dies a thousand deaths
A soldier dies but once


They say pussy and paper is poetry power and pistols
Plottin on murderin motherfuckers 'fore they get you
Picturin pitiful punk niggaz coppin pleas
Puffin weed as I position myself to clock G's
My enemies scatter in suicidal situations
Never to witness the wicked shit that they was facin
Pockets is packed with presidents, pursue your riches
Evadin the playa hatin tricks, while hittin switches
Bitches is bad-mouth, cause brawlin motherfuckers is bold
But y'all some hoes, the game should be sewed
I'm sick of psychotic society somebody save me
Addicted to drama so even mama couldn't raise me
Even the preacher and all my teachers couldn't reach me
I run in the streets and puffin weed wit my peeps
I'm duckin the cop, I hit the weed as I'm clutchin my glock
Niggaz is hot when I hit the block, what if I die tonight

Polishin pistols prepare for battle pass the pump
When I get to poppin niggaz is droppin then they done
Callin the coroner come collect the fuckin corpse
He got it by killer, preoccuppied with bein boss
Revenge is the method, whenever steppin keep a weapon close
Adversaries are overdosed over deadly notes
Jealous niggaz and broke bitches equal packed jails
Hit the block and fill your pockets makin crack sales
Picture perfection pursuin paper with a passion
Visions of prisons for all the pussies that I blasted
Runnin with criminals individuals with no remorse
Try to stop me my pistol posse's usin deadly force
In my brain all I can think about is fame
The police know my name, a different game, ain't a thing changed
I'm seein cemetary photos of my peers
Conversatin like they still here, if I die tonight

Pussy and paper is poetry power and pistols
Plottin on murderin motherfuckers 'fore they get you
Pray to the heavens three-fifty-sevens to the sky
And I hope I'm forgiven for Thug Livin when I die
I wonder if heaven got a ghetto for Thug niggaz
A stress free life and a spot for drug dealers
Pissin while practicin how to pimp and be a playa
Overdose of a dick, while drinkin liquor when I lay her
Pistol whippin these simps, for bein petrified and lame
Disrespectin the game, prayin for punishment and pain
Goin insane, never die, live eternal, who shall I fear?
Don't shed a tear for me nigga I ain't happy hear
I hope they bury me and send me to my rest
Headlines readin MURDERED TO DEATH, my last breath
Take a look picture a crook on his last stand
Motherfuckers don't understand, if I die tonight

Virginia Moon (Music & Lyrics)

Första gången jag hörde den här låten var någon gång för kanske två veckor sedan. Jag hade väldigt svårt för att tro att det faktiskt var... Foo Fighters. Jepp, det stämmer. Detta är nog den absolut lugnaste Foo Fighters-låten jag hittills har hört. Jag tror inte att man hade trott att det här var Foo Fighters om man till exempel hade hört den på radion.

Nåja, strunt samma. Detta visar i alla fall att Dave Grohl är ett väldigt mångsidigt, rent musikaliskt geni. Okej, kan hålla med om att det kanske finns större genier, och att Dave Grohl kanske inte är lika mycket geni som någon annan men ha följande i åtanke: att han kan hålla på att skrika som han gör i vissa låtar till att dra en skönsjungande duett med Norah Jones, att han kan spela trummor och gitarr (skulle inte förvåna mig om han spelade bas också) och samtidigt skriva grymma låttexter... För mig är han i alla fall ett litet geni.



Anyway, här kommer en låt som man kanske inte direkt associerar med Foo Fighters! Som vanligt finns texten också med.



Dearest constellation
Heaven surroundin' you
Stay there soft and blue
Virginia moon
I wait for you tonight

Sweetest invitation
Breaking the day in two
Feelin' like I do
Virginia moon
I wait for you tonight

And now our shapes become
Shadows in your light
In the morning when we're through
And tomorrow rescues you
I will say
Goodnight

Secret fascination
Whisper a quiet tune
Hear me callin' you
Virginia moon
I wait for you tonight

And now our shapes become
Shadows in your light
In the morning when we're through
And tomorrow rescues you
I will say
Goodnight

Virginia moon
I wait for you tonight

And now our shapes become
Shadows in your light
In the morning when we're through
And tomorrow rescues you
I will say
Goodnight

I will say goodnight x2

Unified Rebelution (Music & Lyrics)

Då var det återigen dags för musik! Detta blir nog en dag i musikens tecken. Igår var det Run DMC som stod för beatet, idag blir det Jurassic 5. Jag kan inte riktigt sätta fingret på vad det är som gör den här gruppen så bra, men en bidragande orsak skulle ju kunna vara deras sköna beat i många av deras låtar. Inte är det heller en nackdel att deras flow i texterna är så skönt.


Nåja, skit i det nu! Lyssna istället! Självklart finns texten med.



Party people, are you with me?
Are you with me party people? [Repeat 4x]

To the beat y'all, and you don't stop
Rock the rhythm that'll make your finger pop
Ah to the tic toc, tic tic, tic tism
Live and direct is the rebels of rhythm
On your radio, turn up the stereo, cause it's working

Well I'm the coolest of the cool and they call me Akil
Hip-hop fanatic busting lyrical windmills
And I'm the international king of all things
Creates the ill scene shades for Robin to bring
I'm funky fresh, I got style and finesse
And if the roof's on fire put the pen to the paper
A fade with the J it's the live motivator
And from shore to shore and from sea to sea
And everwhere that we go we're in the place to be

Like that, rock the house
To my man Cut Chemist, rocks the house
To my man Charlie 2na, rocks the house
And to my brother Nu-Mark, rocks the house
And to my man Marc 7even, rocks the house
And to my brother Hani, rocks the house
And to my brother Kalil, rocks the house
And to my brother Faru, turning it out

Now the world don't move to the beat of just one drum
So it might be right for you, it might not be right for some
So come one, come all (hey) big or small
Cause I'm guaranteed to rock y'all out of your drawers
Biting MC's always get lockjaw
I'm not Volume T, but I'm harder than all y'all
And just in case you forget the way we will be rocking it
One time prime time flowing with the fatness
Many shades of skin cream, hip styles of blackness
Match this, never practice makes perfect
Sharp like the edge on a blade that's curved
Serve this? Yes, but only when fresh
So you don't have to guess the R-E-B-E-L-S
Dip dip diver, socializer
On the rise, the committee's wiser and will disguise the truth
Of the matter we're sick of the idle chatter
The data we pitter patter we'll splatter just like a platter
Infected uncontrollably, follow me, come on go with me
Cause you know it be Tuna and Marc 7even
Heaven does await us, put here to sedate us
Make us in His image with with ?glimmage?
Never perfect we're tripping, by a force unseen
But we divulged its presence, so this rap goes back to the essence
Lessons have been written from the end, but you're soon to see
Kalil in community, rebels of rhythm unity

Yeah, and you don't stop
You got the rhythm that makes your fingers pop [Repeat 2x]

It goes 1 2 3, 3 2 1
An apple to a pear to a peach to a plum
Listen to the drum, does it make your ears numb?
Here it comes, here it comes, here it kiddy comes comes

I'm independent, good to the limit
Never in my life been to the VD clinic
Salute me but I'm not a lieutenant
Down with Nu-Mark and my man Cut Chemist
My name is Marc 7even, yes indeed
And ain't another MC that can touch my tree
Down with unity and the rebels three
Grab the microphone and release your seed
And the formula for me to get bent
And the spot was never hit if I didn't leave a fingerprint
X the fact with colonial combat
Eating steak and other shit in the house of wax
And uh like ?? don't ever think of jacking me
Never gun-packing because that if I like to begin
With not a dimwit angry over somewhat (why?)
Brothers keep holding me back, I'm about to go nuts, man

Niggas know I paid my dues and shit
I'm about to blow the fuck up because I refuse to quit
And this one is dedicated to the crews that bit
I'm about to blow the fuck up because I refuse to quit
I'm tired of keeping my trust and getting used and shit
I'm about to blow the fuck up because I refuse to quit
It doesn't matter who's fatter, who's wack, or who's legit
I'm about to blow the fuck up because I refuse to quit

Run's House (Music & Lyrics)

Jag kunde bara inte låta bli att lägga upp den här låten. Den har varit på min tunga i några dagar nu (har mimat lite av och till) så jag tänkte nu helt plötsligt att jag lägger upp den här. Vem vet? Någon kanske till och med tycker den är bra! Jag har sagt tidigare att min musiksmak är ganska bred. Jag lyssnar mycket på Hiphop, det förnekar jag inte, fast av och till så är det en helt annan musikgenre jag lyssnar mycket på beroende på hur jag känner mig eller bara rent av är sugen på att höra.

Men nu så blir det Hiphop á la 1988! Är inte helt säker på årtalet, men i beskrivningen står det i alla fall 1988 så... Skitsamma, lyssna bara! Grymt härligt!




We had, a whole lot of superstars, on this stage here tonight
But I want yall to know one thing-this is....My House
And when I say who's house, yall know what time it is.
Who's house?
Runs house!

Ah, once again my friend
Not a trend for then
They said, rap was crap
But never had this band
Till the ruler came
With a cooler name
Make ya dance and prance and drove the fans insane
Name is Run my son
Number one for fun
Not a gun that's done and get done by none
The others act in fact ya just wack I kill
Why? its fun my son and Run heads the bill

Who's house? (Say What?) Run's house!
Who's house? (Say What?) Run's house!

I'm in the house y'all
I'm in the house y'all
And this is how DMC turn it out yall
I'm in the house y'all
I'm in the house y'all
And this is what DMC be about y'all
Well my name is dmc, the all-time great
I bust the most rhymes in New York state
Reporters cry, producers die
They want to be down with the king!
The wanted man from the wanted clan
Wanted by every fan from across the land
Not a G-A-N-G off the street
R-U-N-D-M-C complete!

Who's house? (Say What?) Run's house!
Who's house? (Say What?) Run's house!

Run, Run, Run, Run
Get on the mic and (MC)
Another time I take for the rhyme I make
Make me mad and sad because the fad is fake
See I do this thing so come persue this king
One minor rhyme is all you can spring
Cause I'm the best I'm def, ask the rest they left
Thats my name my game and we don't need the rep
You get the booze you lose, you suckas close your mouth
I set a trap for rap thats crap
Its run's house!

Who's house? (Say What?) Run's house!
Who's house? (Say What?) Run's house!

Some underestimate and miscalculate
My intent to create what I call the great
Till I make a song that I prove em wrong
See my song so strong it'll make em come along
Come in the door, get on the floor
Hard rock hard hitting hip-hop hardcore
Causing casualties and catastrophes
And tragedies for the sucker emcees
Use your strategies to get the best of me
You dirty rat MCs, whoever you may be
You need to go down south, you need to shut your mouth
Its all about no doubt just shout cause we talkin' 'bout....

Who's house? Run's house!
Who's house? Run's house!
