a house is not a home (Burt Bacharach)
A chair is still a chair, even when there's no one sittin' there
But a chair is not a house and a house is not a home
When there's no one there to hold you tight
And no one there you can kiss goodnight
Whoa...oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...
Girl
A room is a still a room, even when there's nothin' there but gloom
But a room is not a house and a house is not a home
When the two of us are far apart
And one of us has a broken heart
Now and then I call your name
And suddenly your face appears
But it's just a crazy game
When it ends, it ends in tears
Pretty little darling, have a heart, don't let one mistake keep us apart
I'm not meant to live alone, turn this house into a home
When I climb the stairs and turn the key
Oh, please be there, sayin' that you're still in love with me, yeah...
I'm not meant to live alone, turn this house into a home
When I climb the stairs and turn the key
Oh, please be there, still in love
I said still in love
Still in love with you...yeah...
Are you gonna be in love with me
I want you and need to be, yeah
Still in love with me
Say you're gonna be in love with me
It's drivin' me crazy to think that my baby
Couldn't be still in love with me
Are you gonna be, say you're gonna be
Are you gonna be, say you're gonna be
Are you gonna be, say you're gonna be
Well, well, well, well
Still in love, so in love, still in love with me
Are you gonna be
Say that you're gonna be
Still in love with me, yeah...
With me, oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...
Still in love with me, yeah...yeah...

Erykah Badu - "cleva"
This is how I look without makeup
And with no bra my ninny's sag down low
My hair ain't never hung down to my shoulders
And it might not grow
Ya' never know
But I'm clever when I bust a rhyme
I'm cleva always on ya' mind
She's cleva and I really wanna grow
But why come you're the last to know?
I got a little pot in my belly
So now a days my figure ain't so fly
My dress ain't cost nothin' but seven dollars
But I made it fly
And I'll tell ya why
But I'm clever when I bust a rhyme
I'm cleva always on ya' mind
She's cleva and I really wanna grow
But why come I'm the last to know?
Alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright yeah
Alright with me
Said that I'm alright with me
Said that I'm alright with me
Said that I'm alright with me
Said that I'm alright with me
Said that I'm alright with me

Wallen - "Mes rêves"
Refrain:
Ne brisez pas mes rêves
Avant que la nuit s'achève
Ceux qui disent que l'amour est mort
Je leur prouverai qu'ils ont tort.
Rendez moi mes rêves
Avant que la vie s'achève
Ceux qui disent que l'amour est mort
Je leur prouverai qu'ils ont tort.
Je marche, près de toi
T'accompagne, a ton bras
Je me pare d'une robe
Et tu me dérobe a tous les regards
Comme sur sur ses vieilles photos
Jaunis par le temps
Fusil à l'épaule et moi chantant
Chemin faisant comme les couples d'antan.
Refrain
La belle epoque des vraies valeurs
Ou les choses du cœur
Restaient sans equivoque
Ou la pudeur etait essentielle!
Mais l'amour a notre heure n'est que substentiel
Les gens qui disent que l'amour n'est plus
Ne sont que des deçus
C'est un detail, alors prend ma taille
Fais moi danser j'ai le cœur leger.
Refrain
Emmenez moi loin des villes
Loin du bruit
La ou tout est plus paisible
Loin d'ici.
Refrain
Comme ils ont tort, comme ils ont tort, comme ils ont tort...

"La cigarette" de Sanseverino
Ce texte n'est pas un choix anodin. En effet, pour ceux qui ne le savent pas encore, aujourd'hui est le jour de la mise en place du décret interdisant aux gens de fumer dans les lieux publics. Et même si cette loi ne me concerne pas au premier degré (je fume pas...), j'ai pensé que ce texte de Sanseverino était de mise...
La cigarette tue, 250 milliards de morts par an,
Cette maladie si célèbre et merdique et aussi un crabe astrologique.
La cigarette, non seulement ça tue, mais ça coûte cher et pis ça pue,
La nicotine te colle aux doigts, tes cheveux sentent le cendrier pendant des mois …
REFRAIN : fume, fume, cette cigarette, grille des mégots de vieux clopos
Sur des conseils de médecine, lus dans « Poumons magazine »
Fume fume et puis oublie les détergents qu'il y a dedans,
Les bénéfices de l'Etat, la marge de la Seita …
Pour se déculpabiliser, se déresponsabiliser,
On t'as prévenu, c'est écrit dessus : « tu vas crever », ne viens pas faire un procès.
Sur un missile, ou un lance-roquette, ne manque que cette phrase obsolète :
« Faites attention ne tirez pas vous allez sûrement faire du mal à un gars » !
REFRAIN
Les deux gros doigts, jaunes, foncés et gourds, du roi des mots, Serge Gainsbourg,
Savaient bien que ce poison emmènerait leur propriétaire au cimetière.
Y'a cinquante ans, un 16 mai, mourrai Django, il devait fumer des goldos,
Ses doigts longs nerveux et secs courraient sur les cordes comme Zatopec* .

Bill Withers - Just the two of us
I see the crystal raindrops fall
And the beauty of it all
Is when the sun comes shining through
To make those rainbows in my mind
When I think of you some time
And I want to spend some time with you
Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
Just the two of us
Building castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I
We look for love, no time for tears
Wasted waters's all that is
And it don't make no flowers grow
Good things might come to those who wait
Not to those who wait too late
We got to go for all we know
I hear the crystal raindrops fall
On the window down the hall
And it becomes the morning dew
And darling, when the morning comes
And I see the morning sun
I want to be the one with you
Just the two of us
Just the just the just the two of us

Waiting in vain - Bob Marley
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl,
My heart says follow t'rough.
But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line,
But the waitin' feel is fine:
So don't treat me like a puppet on a string,
'Cause I know I have to do my thing.
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb;
I wanna know when you're gonna come - soon.
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love,
'Cause if summer is here,
I'm still waiting there;
Winter is here,
And I'm still waiting there.

/Guitar solo/

Like I said:
It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door,
And I still can knock some more:
Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible?
I wanna know now, for I to knock some more.
Ya see, in life I know there's lots of grief,
But your love is my relief:
Tears in my eyes burn - tears in my eyes burn
While I'm waiting - while I'm waiting for my turn,
See!
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love, oh!
I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna wait in vain.
I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna wait in vain.
No, I don't wanna (I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain) -
No I - no I (I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't
wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain) -
No, no-no, I, no, I (I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain) -
It's your love that I'm waiting on (I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain);
It's me love that you're running from.
It's Jah love that I'm waiting on (I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain);
It's me love that you're running from.

A change is gonna come - Sam Cooke (1964)
I was born by the river
In a little tent
And just like the river
I've been running ever since
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh, yes it is
It's been too hard living
But I'm afraid to die
I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh yes it will
Then I go to my brother
I say brother help me please
But he winds up knocking me
Back down on my knees
There's been times that I thought
I wouldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh, yes it will

Rock with you - de Michael Jackson (1979)
note personnel: (dont tout le monde se fout, mais je suis sur MON blog, donc je fais ce que je veux, non mais!) c'est actuellement la sonnerie de mon portable. Et je suis d'ailleurs la seule personne en France à avoir en 2006 une chanson de 1979 en sonnerie....So what?!
Girl, close your eyes
Let that rhythm, get into you
Don't try to fight it
There ain't nothin' that you can do
Relax your mind
Lay back and groove with mine
You got to feel the heat
And we can ride the boogie
Share that beat of love
(chorus)
I wanna rock with you (all night)
Dance you into the (sunlight)
I wanna rock with you (all night)
We're gonna rock the night away
Out on the floor
There ain't nobody there but us
Girl, when you dance
There's a magic that must be love
just take it slow
'Cause we got so far to go
When you feel the heat
And we gunna ride the boogie
Share that beat of love
(chorus)
And when the grove is dead and gone
yeah, u no that love survives
so we can rock forever

Stevie Wonder - Isn't she lovely
Voici la chanson de Stevie Wonder, Isn't she lovely, paru sur l'album Songs in the key of life, 1976
Isn't she wonderful
Isn't she precious
Less than one minute old
I never thought through love we'd be
Making one as lovely as she
But isn't she lovely made from
Isn't she pretty
Truly the angel's best
Boy, I'm so happy
We have been heaven blessed
I can't believe what God has done
Through us he's given life to one
But isn't she lovely made from love
Isn't she lovely
Life and love are the same
Life is Aisha
The meaning of her name
Londie, it could have not been done
Without you who conceived the one
That's so very lovely made from love

fuseau horaire" d'Amélie-Les-Crayons
Voici les paroles d'une chanson d'Amélie-Les-Crayons : fuseau horaire. L'album s'appelle: et pourquoi les crayons? C'est un groupe qui monte et cette ascension est amplement méritée. Voici donc ma chanson préférée de ce groupe .
Si la terre est ronde Tu n'auras qu' a tendre la main Et dire à demain
Si le ciel est grand Comme le disent les enfants Alors on aura le même
Refrain 1 : Si tes jours sont mes nuits Je dormirai là-bas Tu rêveras d'ici
Ca ressemble aux adieux Aux étreintes d'amoureux Qu'on voit au cinéma
Ca me jette dans les yeux Nos souvenirs à deux L'histoire de toi et moi
Refrain 1
Refrain 2 : Alors j'ai même pas peur De te voir partir J'te fais même un sourire Loin des yeux, loin du coeur Même pas peur
Si dans les jardins De la ville ou d'ailleurs Tu goûtes aux doux parfums
Si tu trouves une âme soeur Même du bout du corps C'est qu'on n'était pas bien
Refrain 1 Refrain 2 |
