Guess the song

Who is the first to quess what song these lyrics are from?

But shoot it in the right direction
Make making it your intention
Live those dreams
Scheme those schemes
Got to hit me
Hit me
Hit me with your laser beams

Like a needle needs a vein

U2 – Hawkmoon 269

Like a desert needs rain
Like a town needs a name
I need your love

Like a drifter needs a room
Hawkmoon
I need your love

Like a rhythm unbroken
Like drums in the night
Like sweet soul music
Like sunlight
I need your love

Like coming home
And you don’t know where you’ve been
Like black coffee
Like nicotine
I need your love

When the night has no end
And the day yet to begin
As the room spins around
I need your love

Like a Phoenix rising needs a holy tree
Like the sweet revenge of a bitter enemy
I need your love

Like the hot needs the sun
Like honey on her tongue
Like the muzzle of a gun
Like oxygen
I need your love

When the night has no end
And the day yet to begin
As the room spins around
I need your love

Like thunder needs rain
Like a preacher needs pain
Like tongues of flame
Like a soupstain
I need your love

Like a needle needs a vein
Like someone to blame
Like a thought unchained
Like a runaway train
I need your love

Like faith needs a doubt
Like a freeway out
I need your love

Like powder needs a spark
Like lies need the dark
I need your love

I need all the love in your heart… and I need all the love in your heart… and I need all the love in your heart…

Two Tribes

Vrijheid blijheid. Ondanks dat mijn agenda nog nooit zo vol heeft gestaan als nu is het toch makkelijker om leuke dingen te doen. Zoals het nazoeken van de lyrics van ‘Two Tribes’ van ‘Frankie goes to hollywood’.

En ik altijd maar denken. When two tribes go to war, money is all you can score. Maar dat blijkt dus alleen in mijn hoofd zo te zijn.

Release me

Infected Mushroom – Release me

release me
“Open the door – get him outta there!”
“No, wait…”

release me
“I know there is much we can learn from each other, if we can negotiate a truce. We can find a way to co-exist. Can there be a peace between us?”

peace, no peace
“What is it that you want us to do?”

Ik vind het een bijzonder goed nummer. Het doet mij er aan denken dat je met sommige mensen gewoon niet kan onderhandelen. Die vormen hun mening en kunnen niet meer van gedachte veranderen.

Paradise burns!

Burn!Emergence – Scarred

Heal the world
Heal the world thats torn apart

Your stolen innocence lost beyond recovery
A cold ambivalence desecrates that memory
A warped reality an expectation spurned
Trapped in banality and paradise burned

Scars cross your tender flesh
Your world is torn apart
A black malaise no words of praise
can sooth your aching heart
Lost an weary stained and dreary
Still your life goes on
Cold and jaded joys have faded
Soon they will be gone

Heal the world
Heal the world thats torn apart

Clinging to sanity the walls are closing in
Trapped by venality the cycle starts again
Seeking security an expectation spurned
I mourned your purity and paradise burned

Scars cross your tender flesh
Your world is torn apart
A black malaise no words of praise
can sooth your aching heart
Lost an weary stained and dreary
Still your life goes on
Cold and jaded joys have faded
Soon they will be gone

R.o.o.o.m.

Ruler Of Our Own Minds!Gisteren was er in de Paap een optreden van R.o.o.o.m. Volgens mijn collega, die ze al eens gezien had, was het een soort van jostie band. Het kwam erop neer dat de muzikanten bijzonder veel plezier hadden in hun muziekmakerij en dat er af en toe wel wat goeds tussen zat.

Op zich wilde ik zoiets wel eens meemaken, maar wat bleek… de band was echt extreem goed! Het swingde, het was leuk, en het was echt ontzettend goed! Meer rooom!!!!

Update: Volgende week (29 juli) een jamsessie in het paard! Dit verklaart ook direct de jostie band achtergrond… dat waren gewoon goedbedoelende amateurs :-)
