Ground control to major tom
Ground control to major tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on
Ground control to major tom
Commencing countdown, engines on
Check ignition and may gods love be with you
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
Four, three, two, one, liftoff
This is ground control to major tom
Youve really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now its time to leave the capsule if you dare
This is major tom to ground control
Im stepping through the door
And Im floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today
For here
Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet earth is blue
And theres nothing I can do
Though Im past one hundred thousand miles
Im feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
Tell me wife I love her very much she knows
Ground control to major tom
Your circuits dead, theres something wrong
Can you hear me, major tom?
Can you hear me, major tom?
Can you hear me, major tom?
Can you....
Here am I floating round my tin can
Far above the moon
Planet earth is blue
And theres nothing I can do.

I lit out from Reno, I was trailed by twenty hounds
Didn't get to sleep last night 'till the morning came around.

Set out runnin' but I take my time
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.

Ran into the devil, babe, he loaned me twenty bills
I spent the night in Utah in a cave up in the hills.

Set out runnin' but I take my time, a friend of the devil is a friend of mine,
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.

I ran down to the levee but the devil caught me there
He took my twenty dollar bill and vanished in the air.

Set out runnin' but I take my time
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.

When the truth is found to be lies and all the joys within you dies don't you want somebody to love don't you need somebody to love wouldn't you love somebody to love you better find somebody to love When the garden flowers baby are dead yes and your mind is full of red don't you want somebody to love don't you need somebody to love wouldn't you love somebody to love you better find somebody to love your eyes, I say your eyes may look like his but in your head baby I'm afraid you don't know where it is don't you want somebody to love

Your admirers on the street
Gotta hoot and stamp their feet
In the heat from your physique
As you twinkle by in moccasin sneakers

And I thought my heart would break
When you doubled up at the stake
With your fingers all a-shake
You could never tell a winner from a snake
but you always make money

Easy money

With your figure and your face
Strutting out at every race
Throw a glass around the place
Show the colour of your crimson suspenders

We would take the money home
Sit around the family throne
My old dog could chew his bone
For two weeks we could appease the Almighty

Easy money

Got no truck with the la-di-da
Keep my bread in an old fruit jar
Drive you out in a motor-car
Getting fat on your lucky star just making

Easy money

Suzi Quatro

Old pirates, yes, they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the almighty
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look? Ooh
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fullfil the book


Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our mind
Woh, have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them-a can-a stop-a the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look?
Yes, some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fullfill the book
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever had
Redemption songs
All I ever had
Redemption songs
These songs of freedom
Songs of freedom

Been dazed and confused for so long, it's not true
A-wanted a woman, never bargained for you
Lots of people talkin', few of them know
soul of a woman was created below, yay

You hurt and abuse, tellin' all of your lies
Run 'round sweet baby, lord, how they hypnotize
Sweet little baby, I don't know where you been
Gonna love you baby, here I come again

Every day I work so hard, bringin' home my hard-earned pay
Try to love you, baby, but you push me away
Don't know where you're goin', only know just where you've been
Sweet little baby, I want you again

That's not my babe
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Did you ever look-up my woman
Ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah

@cla, mersi

@cla,cand Zamfir innebunea pe nemti cu cantecul asta impreuna cu James Last. ( cred ca aici era prin 1977 )

Gheorghe Zamfir - Einsamer Hirte


A fost si coloana sonora ptr filmul Kill Bill

Voci...

Ai dreptate, March, îmi mai aduc aminte
Zamfir oricum a facut furori cu naiul.
Si James Last a fost o legenda.

Come together, right now... over me.

Brava...Cla !!!

Acum daca ti-a placut reantalnirea cu dazed and confused..iaca si pe sora ei:


Working from seven to eleven every night,
It really makes life a drag, I don't think that's right.
I've really, really been the best of fools, I did what I could.
'Cause I love you, baby, How I love you, darling, How I love you, baby,
How I love you, girl, little girl.
But baby, Since I've Been Loving You. I'm about to lose my worried mind, oh, yeah.

Everybody trying to tell me that you didn't mean me no good.
I've been trying, Lord, let me tell you, Let me tell you I really did the best I could.
I've been working from seven to eleven every night, I said It kinda makes my life a drag.
Lord, that ain't right...
Since I've Been Loving You, I'm about to lose my worried mind.

da...March
Rosu si Negru de atunci erau meser rau..
Lumea iubea Phoenix, dar ei aveau o muzica mult mai subtila..

ce mi se pare foarte bizar este acest tandarica, care in mod straniu avea acelasi stil si prezenta scenica
ca bateristul (legendar) de la the who..regretatul keith moon..

nu exista nicio posibilitate care sa explice asa ceva...intrucat la vremea aia, lipan nu avea cum sa afle de moon..
adica stia de el, insa nu stia cum se misca atunci cand bate, cum mima lovituri false pentru contratimpi, cum prindea ritmul apoi..

cred doar ca natura a facut o alegere ciudata

uita si o alta clasica de lor..
mai era si oameni de zapada, dar n-am gasit-o

Rosu si negru - Oameni de zapada

Uite ca a dat-o inaintea mea mai sus conu' @papadie

Si aici un interviu interesant din 2009 cu Nancy Brandes , fondatorul trupei Rosu si Negru.



Mai si cand te gandesti ca aia de atunci cantau in direct , aveau voci, nu ca astia de azi playbackuri sau vocea prelucrata pe computer !


P.S. Trebuie sa precizez ca piesa "Leopardul" pe care am dat-o mai sus este o preluare Blood, Sweat & Tears pe versurile lui George Pruteanu

... "coana", @March

Ohhhh...scuze ...trebuia sa ma fi dus gandul ca papadia e de gen feminin

si apropos de gen, stiai ca Mirabela Dauer a cantat un timp ,la inceputurile ei, cu "Rosu si Negru " ? O chema pe atunci Bela ... nu stiu mai cum. Mi-a soptit un veteran , ca eu habar n-aveam d-asta

De Mirabela cred ca am stiut atunci, pe vremuri... recunosc ca habar nu mai aveam, iar de ma intrebai, ridicam din umeri.
Multumesc de... reamintire.

Ce frumos... si ma bucur ca topicul meu nu-i degeaba

Azi am auzit ceva la radio si am cautat:
