That ain't no trip back in time...

Now this, THIS is a trip back in time:

Brother Love’s Travelling Salvation Show
-performed (and written?) by Neil Diamond

Hot August night and the leaves hanging down
and the grass on the ground smellin' sweet
Move up the road to the outside of town
and the sound of that good gospel beat
Sits a ragged tent where there ain't no trees
And that gospel group tellin' you and me
It's Love Brother Love say Brother Love's traveling salvation show
Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies and everyone goes
'Cause everyone knows Brother Love's show
Room gets suddenly still and when you'd almost bet
You could hear yourself sweat he walks in
Eyes black as coal and when he lifts his face
Every ear in the place is on him
Startin' soft and slow like a small earthquake
And when he lets go half the valley shakes
It's Love, Brother Love say Brother Loves traveling salvation show
Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies and everyone goes
'Cause everyone knows 'bout Brother Loves show
(Halleluja) Brothers (Halle, halleluja) I say brothers
Now you got yourself two good hands
And when your brother is troubled you've gotta
reach out your hand for him 'cause that's what it's there for
And when your heart is troubled you've gotta reach out
your other hand, reach it out to the Man up there
'Cause that's what He's there for
Take my hand in yours
Walk with me this day
In my heart I know
I will never stray
Halle, halle, halle, halle, halle, halle, halle, halle
Love Brother Love say Brother Love's traveling salvation show
Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies and everyone goes
I say Love Brother Love say Brother Love's traveling salvation show
Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies and everyone goes

Stairway to Heaven
-Jimmy Page, Robert Plant
performed by Led Zeppelin


Theres a lady whos sure
All that glitters is gold
And shes buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and shes buying a stairway to heaven.

Theres a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook
Theres a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.

Theres a feeling I get
When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who standing looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

And its whispered that soon
If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.

If theres a bustle in your hedgerow
Dont be alarmed now,
Its just a spring clean for the may queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
Theres still time to change the road youre on.
And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it wont go
In case you dont know,
The pipers calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How evrything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.

And shes buying a stairway to heaven.​

For What It's Worth

There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware
I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

There's battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind
I think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

What a field-day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly say, hooray for our side
It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line, the man come and take you away
We better stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

Stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, now, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

Brother! I freaking cry to 'Puff the Magic Dragon'..... I -really- get into music... Specially.... Seeing my erm, state of mind, is most of the time 'tuned' differently to the norm...... Oh and Phil Collins.... Freaking blows me away..... And Creed - One or Creed - Arms wide open.... I get really emotional and stuff when listening to music which isn't truly me..... Or perhaps it is? And it is the only time it gets to the surface for air.

-edit-
lol.... Creed - Arms wide open just came on my MP3 player.... (which has thousands of tracks and is on intelligent random shuffle...) That always happens to me.

Scott McKenzie - San Francisco. [Freaking love this song.. Like the dance version too.]

If you're going to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you're going to San Francisco
You're gonna meet some gentle people there

For those who come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there
In the streets of San Francisco
Gentle people with flowers in their hair

All across the nation such a strange vibration
People in motion
There's a whole generation with a new explanation
People in motion people in motion

For those who come to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there

If you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there

NEVER MIND I FOUND THEM

Charlie Daniels " Uneasy Rider " and Donavan " intergalctic Laxitive "
 
One of my favorite songs is the one by Dalida, a French performer of 70-80s. I think the most beautiful thing in her songs was their sense. They're very emotional and deep. One of them is Il venait d'avoir dix-huit ans (He was about 18 years-old).

================================
Il venait d'avoir 18 ans

Il venait d'avoir 18 ans
Il était beau comme un enfant
Fort comme un homme
C'était l'été évidemment
Et j'ai compté en le voyant
Mes nuits d'automne

J'ai mis de l'ordre à mes cheveux
Un peu plus de noir sur mes yeux
Ça l'a fait rire
Quand il s'est approché de moi
J'aurais donné n'importe quoi
Pour le séduire

Il venait d'avoir 18 ans
C'était le plus bel argument
De sa victoire
Il ne m'a pas parlé d'amour
Il pensait que les mots d'amour
Sont dérisoires

Il m'a dit: "j'ai envie de toi"
Il avait vu au cinéma
Le blé en herbes
Au creux d'un lit improvisé
J'ai découvert émerveillée
Un ciel superbe

Il venait d'avoir 18 ans
Ça le rendait presqu'insolent
De certitude
Et pendant qu'il se rhabillait
Déjà vaincu, je retrouvais
Ma solitude

J'aurais voulu le retenir
Pourtant je l'ai laissé partir
Sans faire un geste
Il m'a dit "c'était pas si mal"
Avec la candeur infernale
De sa jeunesse

J'ai mis de l'ordre à mes cheveux
Un peu plus de noir sur mes yeux
Par habitude
J'avais oublié simplement
Que j'avais deux fois 18 ans.

According to the text, she met a young man. He was only 17 and was still "beautiful as a child" and meanwhile already "strong as a man". As he approached to her, she was full of temptation and had nothing to do with it. He only said (and it was very a la francais): "I want you" (J'ai envie de toi), and she couldn't reject it. After everything was done he just dressed and left her alone, said but "It wasn't so bad" (C'etait pas si mal)...
And it is that romantic French culture... ahh... At the end of the song, the performer adds one little nuance - she was twice 18 years-old that day... :)
P.S.: Lara Fabian performed this song very bad.

Alice in Chains - Shame in You


When I waken, and I'm achin', time for sleepin, yeah
When I'm sayin time to go and, I've been hurtin, yeah
When I'm layin, I'm still tryin, concentrating on dyin', yeah

You're right as rain, but you're all to blame
Agreed my crime's the same
My sins I'll claim, give you back shed pain
Go find a place for own shame
So you can deal with this thing unreal
No one made you feel any hurt, yeah

Body's movin, only provin, no one needed to move
Still believin, yet mistaken, all God's children, yeah
And I must say, I was stupid, selfishly she consumed, yeah

And you must change patterns all we trained
Or n'er regain peace you seek
Now you hear me, for the things I see
Yeah, I believe in inner peace, yeah

Throw out, blow up, hold in
Show fine, no signs, grow blind

I'm Above

For clear space and soundness of mind
I've let you play me for some time
One can only receive and retain
But the lies you recite for your gain

So you rely on my faith in your kind
Or rather continue to pretend that I'm blind
You say I made your life a living hell
And yet still let me pay you when I fell

How is it you're feeling so uneasy?
How is it that I feel fine?
Life reveals what is dealt through seasons
Circle comes around each time

I've been blessed with eyes to see this
Behind the unwhole truth you hide
Bite to remind the bitten, bigger
Mouth repaying tenfold wide

I'm above
Over you I'm standing above
Claiming unconditional love
Above

Try to keep bad blood in the past
Never thought a chance, a chance it would last
I have strength enough, enough to forgive
I desire peace where I live

I've been blessed with eyes to see this
Behind the unwhole truth you hide
Bite to remind the bitten, bigger
Mouth repaying tenfold wide

How is it you're feeling so uneasy?
How is it that I feel fine?
Life reveals what is dealt through seasons
Circle comes around each time

I'm above
Over you I'm standing above
Claiming unconditional love
Above

I'm above
Over you I'm standing above
Claiming unconditional love
Above

I'm above
Over you I'm standing above
Claiming unconditional love
Above
