Nick Cave & Kylie Minogue - Where The Wild Roses Grow

Encore une chanson qui m'a bercée bien longtemps et qui, à mes oreilles, n'a rien perdu de sa valeur malgré le temps...

 

(words and music by Nick Cave)

They call me The Wild Rose
But my name was Elisa Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name was Elisa Day

From the first day I saw her I knew she was the one
As she stared in my eyes and smiled
For her lips were the colour of the roses
That grew down the river, all bloody and wild
When he knocked on my door and entered the room
My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
He would be my first man, and with a careful hand
He wiped at the tears that ran down my face

They call me The Wild Rose
But my name was Elisa Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name was Elisa Day

On the second day I brought her a flower
She was more beautiful than any woman I'd seen
I said, "Do you know where the wild roses grow
So sweet and scarlet and free ?"
On the second day he came with a single red rose
He said: "Will you give me your loss and your sorrow ?"
I nodded my head, as I lay on the bed
"If I show you the roses will you follow ?"

They call me The Wild Rose
But my name was Elisa Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name was Elisa Day

On the third day he took me to the river
He showed me the roses and we kissed
And the last thing I heard was a muttered word
As he knelt above me with a rock in his fist
On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
And she lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief
As I kissed her goodbye, I said, "All beauty must die"
And lent down and planted a rose between her teeth

They call me The Wild Rose
But my name was Elisa Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name was Elisa Day

My name was Elisa Day
For my name was Elisa Day

Stromae - Alors On Danse

En voilà un qui me fait tourner sa chanson dans la tête en permanence !! Allez move ton popotin ! :)


Qui dit études dit travail,
Qui dit taf te dit les thunes,
Qui dit argent dit dépenses,
Qui dit crédit dit créance,
Qui dit dette te dit huissier,
Oui dit assis dans la merde.
Qui dit Amour dit les gosses,
Dit toujours et dit divorce.
Qui dit proches te dis deuils car les problèmes ne viennent pas seuls.
Qui dit crise te dis monde dit famine dit tiers-monde.
Qui dit fatigue dit réveil, encore sourd de la veille,
Alors on sort pour oublier tous les problèmes.
Alors on danse… (X9)


Et la tu t'dis que c'est fini car pire que ça ce serait la mort.
Quand tu crois enfin que tu t'en sors quand y en a plus et ben y en a encore!
Ecstasy dit problème les problèmes ou bien la musique.
Ca t'prends les tripes ça te prends la tête et puis tu prie pour que ça s'arrête.
Mais c'est ton corps c’est pas le ciel alors tu t’bouche plus les oreilles.
Et là tu cries encore plus fort et ça persiste...

Alors on chante
Lalalalalala, Lalalalalala,
Alors on chante
Lalalalalala, Lalalalalala

Alors on chante (x2)
Et puis seulement quand c’est fini, alors on danse.
Alors on danse (x7)
Et ben y en a encore (X5)

Joanna Wyatt - Stupid cupid

Ne me demandez surtout pas comment cet air-là m'est remonté à l'esprit !!


En la réécoutant, j'essaie de me souvenir du jour où je l'ai entendue pour la première fois... La fille devait avoir mon âge (enfin pas tout à fait ! ) ... Cela m'a fait rêver et puis j'ai oublié... Jusqu'à là ! Les souvenirs ont parfois du bon !!

Peter Gabriel - The book of love

Petite pépite du dernier album de Peter Gabriel "Scratch my Back", et en attendant impatiemment son concert, en Mars prochain à Bercy... Voici "the book of love", une (ancienne) chanson qui ressemble au Peter Gabriel que j'apprécie tout particulièrement, toute en douceur, toute en tendresse... une très belle chanson, déjà entendue dans  que je ne me lasse pas de réécouter...


 

The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures and instructions for dancing
But I
I love it when you read to me
And you
You can read me anything
The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it is just transcendental
Some of it is just really dumb
But I
I love it when you sing to me
And you
You can sing me anything
The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know
But I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
You ought to give me wedding rings

Vampire Weekend - White Sky

Depuis quelques temps, je suis "bouclée" sur le dernier album de Vampire Weekend Contra. Très bon album, avec entre autres "Horchata" mais aussi cette chanson, White Sky" qui me fait énormément penser à Paul Simon dans l'esprit et dans la façon de l'interpréter. Je vous conseille (pour une fois) l'écoute de cet album qui le mérite amplement. C'est frais, c'est joyeux, c'est un rayon de soleil dans cet hiver glacial.


An ancient business
A modern piece of glasswork
Down on the corner that
You walk each day in passing
The elderly sales clerk
Won't eye us with suspicion
The whole, immortal corporation's given it's permission

The little stairway
A little piece of carpet
A pair of mirrors that
Are facing one another
Out in both directions
A thousand little Julias
That come together
In the middle of Manhattan

You waited since lunch
It all comes at once

Around the corner
The house that modern art built
I ask for modern art
To keep it out the closet
Of people who might own it
The sins of pride and envy
And on the second floor
The Richard Serra Skatepark

Waited since lunch
It all comes at once

Sit on the park wall
Ask all the right questions
Why are the horses
Racing taxis in the winter
Look up at the buildings
Imagine who might live there
Imagining your Wolfords
In a ball upon the sink there

You waited since lunch
It all comes at once

Leonard Cohen : The Partisan

Rien à faire... il est des chansons comme celles-là, trop lourdes d'histoires...
Rien à faire d'autre, donc, que de l'écouter...


When they poured across the border
I was cautioned to surrender
This I could not do
I took my gun and vanished.

I have changed my name so often
I've lost my wife and children
But I have many friends
And some of them are with me

An old woman gave us shelter
Kept us hidden in the garret
Then the soldiers came
She died without a whisper.

There were three of us this morning
I'm the only one this evening
But I must go on
The frontiers are my prison.

Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing
Through the graves the wind is blowing
Freedom soon will come
Then we'll come from the shadows.

Les Allemands étaient chez moi
Ils me dirent "résigne toi"
Mais je n'ai pas peur
J'ai repris mon arme.

J'ai changé cent fois de nom
J'ai perdu femme et enfants
Mais j'ai tant d'amis
J'ai la France entiere.

Un vieil homme dans un grenier
Pour la nuit nous a cachés
Les Allemands l'ont pris
Il est mort sans surprise.

Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing
Through the graves the wind is blowing
Freedom soon will come
Then we'll come from the shadows.

The ting tings - That's not my name

Il y a des chansons, comme celles-là, qui restent gravées, sans que l'on sache trop pourquoi. S'associe alors un moment, une image, et le frisson, à l'écoute de la chanson qui passait alors... revient s'ancrer
là...

Bref... j'aime bien !

Désolée aucune vidéo disponible en lien, donc il faut aller sur la plateforme initiale...

Four letter word just to get me along
It's a difficulty and i'm biting on my tongue and I
I keep stalling, keeping me together
People around gotta find something to say now

Holding back, everyday the same
Don't wanna be a loner
Listen to me, oh no
I never say anything at all
But with nothing to consider they forget my name
(ame,ame,ame)

They call me 'Hell'
They call me 'Stacey'
They call me 'her'
They call me 'Jane'
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

They call me 'quiet girl'
But i'm a riot
Mary Jo Lisa
Always the same
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

I miss the catch if they throw me the ball
I'm the last chick standing up against the wall
Keep up, falling, these heels they keep me boring
Getting glammed up and sitting on the fence now

So alone all the time and I
Lock myself away
Listen to me, i'm not
Although i'm dressed up, out and all with
Everything considered they forget my name
(ame,ame,ame)

They call me 'Hell'
They call me 'Stacey'
They call me 'her'
They call me 'Jane'
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

They call me 'quiet girl'
But i'm a riot
Mary Jo Lisa
Always the same
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

Are you calling me darling?
Are you calling me "bird"?
Are you calling me darling?
Are you calling me "bird"?

...continues with chorus overlapping

Guy in the background singing:
This song was in my head, now it's in my mind, call it reach it get some words and get some timing.
And though I realize, I cannot emphasize, I'll stick around but just don't promise, nothing binding.
And baby can't you see, that you're so desperately, a standing joker like a vocal one-liner.
Instead of sing-a-long, this song is monotone, I've gotta get some soul I gotta get some feeling.

Derek Trucks Band - This Sky

Voici un petit morceau où la magie guitare/voix opère à plein. Le guitariste fait plus que "toucher sa canette" comme on peut le voir là. Désolée pour le clip, il y en a qui préfèrent jacasser qu'écouter, c'est assez désolant, surtout pour ceux qui sont sur scène, et en particulier sur d'aussi belles chansons. Là encore aucun clip officiel... Mais elle est dans ma playlist donc il vaut mieux l'écouter là.


Sad sad lover, being true
Falling out a window for the view
All of us laugh, how many of us say?
This sky where we live is no place to lose your way
So love, love, love

Lose your body and your mind
And the bitter taste of time
All of us cry while we should be dancing
This sky where we live is no place to lose your way
So love, love, love

Fly fly away, fly away
Fly fly away, do you remember?
All of us sleeping, how many of us dream?
This sky where we live is the place to lose your way
So love, love, love

Fly fly away, fly away
Fly fly away, do you remember?

Broken Bells - The High Road

Encore une chanson entendue par hasard et qui a retenu mon attention. Je ne connais rien de ce groupe, hormis que son leader James Mercer vient des Shins, que certains connaissent. Il n'y a même pas de clip mais qu'importe, c'est la chanson qui compte, non ?


Go down to wait all night
She's bound to run him out
The rest of the nothing of any how
To each his own
The garden is sorting out
She curls her lips on a bar
I don't know if you're dead or not
If you're anyone

Come on and get the minimum
Before you open up your eyes
It's all being served in your hands
Your addled eyes
Come on and get to open yours
Collected at the borderlines
They want to get up in your hair

[Chorus]
Cause they know, so do I
The high road is hard to find
A detour in your new life
Tell all of your friends getting warm

The dogs who ran all night
The son who hoped it would
Break from the warfare in your house
To each his own
The soldier is bailing out
And curled his lips on a bar
And I don't know if the dead can talk
To anyone

Come on and get the minimum
Before you open up your eyes
It's all being served in your hands
Are you one of us
Come on and get to open yours
Collected at the borderlines
They want to get up in your hair

[Chorus]
cause they know, so do I
The high road is hard to find
A detour in your new life
Tell all of your friends getting warm

It's too late to change your mind
You let laws be your guide
(repeat)

Owl City - Fireflies

J'aime bien ce genre de musique, c'est un peu "easy listening", je l'accorde, mais je trouve que ça passe bien !


You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep

'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand and stare

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems

'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance

A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

Leave my door open just a crack
(Please take me away from here)
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
(Please take me away from here)
Why do I tire of counting sheep
(Please take me away from here)
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep

To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell

But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams

Massive Attack - Paradise Circus

Nouvel album assez attendu de Massive Attack (Heligoland). Ce titre, entendu à la radio, a accroché mon oreille... J'aime la basse et le clapping, ajouté à la voix envoûtante de Hope Sandoval. On retrouve bien l'ambiance du groupe, assez noire, lancinante et planante. Le reste de l'album sera à voir...

La vidéo officielle étant interdite aux mineurs, je me contenterai des pochettes de leurs albums...


It's unfortunate that when we feel a storm
we can roll ourselves over 'cause we're uncomfortable
oh where the devil makes us sin
but we like it when we're spinning in his grip.

Love is like a sin my love
For the one that feels it the most
Look at her with a smile like a flame
She will love you like a fly will never love you, again

It's unfortunate that when we feel a storm
we can roll ourselves over when we're uncomfortable
oh well the devil makes us sin
but we like it when we're spinning in his grip.

Love is like a sin my love
For the one that feels it the most
Look at her with a smile like a flame
She will love you like a fly will never love you, again

Yodelice - Free

Nouveau single extrait du toujours excellent album de Yodelice. Cette chanson est juste magnifique... Et le clip plutôt original et bien trouvé.


Thank you for pretending that
You can see me in the dark
As if I was making sense
And what I say is what you really heard

'Cause baby baby baby
I'll be what I wanna be
Crazy as it may be
I'll die when I wanna

Lies set me free
Lies keep me from my fear
Lies believe in me
Lies heavenly shelter

Thank you for pretending that
I don't cry and I don't care
That my heart is made of clay
And I will keep sailling away

'Cause baby baby baby
I'll be what I wanna be
Crazy as it may be
I'll die when I wanna

Lies set me free
Lies keep me from my fear
Lies believe in me
Lies heavenly shelter

Thank you for pretending that

I got some skin around my bones
Thank you for pretending that
I'll never never never let you go

Lies set me free
Lies keep me from my fear
Lies believe in me
Lies heavenly shelter

Gérald De Palmas - Dans une larme

Parce que j'aime bien ce que ce poète nous raconte, j'aime ses musiques et ce qu'il dit... Bref, un nouvel album plutôt prometteur...


Plonger au fond de la mer
As-tu déjà essayé ?
Et au centre de la terre
Qu’il y a-t-il dans l’obscurité ?
Les étoiles et leurs poussières
Sais-tu ce qu’il s’est passé ?
Derrière le soleil qui nous éclaire
Y es tu dejà allé ?

Dans une larme tout l’univers
Une larme au goût amer
Une larme pour oublier
Que je suis incapable d’aimer

Ma foi me désespère
Mais je veux bien t’ecouter
Le paradis et l’enfer
Quel manque de subtilité
Perdu dans mon labyrinthe
Je continue à chercher
Des années que je m’éreinte
De plus en plus enfermé

Dans une larme tout l’univers
Une larme au goût amer
Une larme pour oublier
Que je suis incapable d’aimer

Ce sentiment qui me bouleverse
Comment peux-tu l’expliquer
Tout cet amour qui me renverse
Je ne sais pas l’exprimer

Dans une larme tout l’univers
Une larme au goût amer
Une larme pour oublier
Que je suis incapable d’aimer

Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band - Big Black Nothing

Plusieurs fois que j'entends cette chanson, et à chaque fois, elle me fait chantonner. C'est un groupe totalement inconnu pour moi, mais ceci n'empêche en rien cela !...


Big black nothing
Fooling everyone
Big black nothing
Put a halo around what you've done
Because a big black nothing
Is coming up

Would you be my
Would you still be my friend
If I told you
It's all just pretend
Because a big black nothing
Is not the end

Sing me something
Something I can feel
Sing it louder
The whole world has to hear
Because a big black nothing
Was made to appeal

Lock the doors
Hide the keys
Flipping channels
Through the streets
All this news
Just makes me scared of you

Board up the windows
Unplug the phone
Make it look like nobody's home
I am very scared
But so prepared for the worst
Big black nothing
Fooling everyone
Big black nothing
Put a halo around what you've done
Because a big black nothing
Is coming up
