Ja, maar ik kom niet zo vaak op MusicMeter, over
muziek vind ik 't wat moeilijker discussiëren. Over
films weet ik gewoon meer, dus is 't leuk als er
toch nog iets over muziek ook op deze site
staat.

Best leuke teksten hoor, maar hoort dit topic inmiddels niet beter thuis op MusicMeter? Evt. verplaatsen?
Er is daar allang een dergelijk topic.
Meerdere zelfs.

Er zaten 'n paar fouten in de tekst van Never Understand:
NEVER UNDERSTAND
The Jesus And Mary Chain
sung by Jim
The sun comes up another day begins
And I don't even worry about the state I'm in
Head so heavy and I'm looking thin
But when the sun goes down I wanna start again
You never understand me
You never understand me
Yeah
Stop, turn around and take a look at me
Why don't you take a second and tell me what you see
Things you see you only disagree
You never understand that's what I want to be
You never understand me
You never understand me
Yeah
Not wishing to hide but you just can't see me
I tell you the truth but you don't believe me
Thinking of love but I can't hear what you're saying
Tomorrow I'm leaving
Cause I'm not stayin'
Yeah....
(Uh huh huh)

its my life

deze is geweldig
JEREMY
Pearl Jam
At home, drawing pictures of mountain tops with him on top
Lemin yellow sun, arms raised in a V
And the dead lay in pools of maroon below
Daddy didn't give attention
Oh, to the fact that mommy didn't care
King Jeremy the wicked...oh, ruled his world...
Jeremy spoke in class today... (2x)
Clearly I remember pickin' on the boy
Seemed a harmless little fuck
Ooh, but we unleashed a lion...
Gnashed his teeth and bit the recess lady's breast...
How can I forget?
And he hit me with a surprise left
My jaw left hurtin'...ooh, dropped wide open
Just like the day...oh, like the day I heard
Daddy didn't give affection, no...
And the boy was something that mommy wouldn't wear
King Jeremy the wicked...oh, ruled his world
Jeremy spoke in class today... (3x)
Woo... (14x)
Try to forget this...try to forget this...
Try to erase this...try to erase this...
>From the blackboard...
Jeremy spoke in class today... (2x)
Jeremy spoke in, spoke in... (2x)
Jeremy spoke in class today...
Woo... (29x)
Woooooohhh...spoke in, spoke in...
Woooooohhh...uh huh, uh huh...

The Doors met The End uit Apocalypse Now...
Niet zo zeer goed, maar wel erg vreemd...! Wat het mag betekenen ik wete het niet...:s
This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I’ll never look into your eyes...again
Can you picture what will be
So limitless and free
Desperately in need...of some...stranger’s hand
In a...desperate land
Lost in a roman...wilderness of pain
And all the children are insane
All the children are insane
Waiting for the summer rain, yeah
There’s danger on the edge of town
Ride the king’s highway, baby
Weird scenes inside the gold mine
Ride the highway west, baby
Ride the snake, ride the snake
To the lake, the ancient lake, baby
The snake is long, seven miles
Ride the snake...he’s old, and his skin is cold
The west is the best
The west is the best
Get here, and we’ll do the rest
The blue bus is callin’ us
The blue bus is callin’ us
Driver, where you taken’ us
The killer awoke before dawn, he put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall
He went into the room where his sister lived, and...then he
Paid a visit to his brother, and then he
He walked on down the hall, and
And he came to a door...and he looked inside
Father, yes son, I want to kill you
Mother...i want to...fuck you
C’mon baby, take a chance with us
C’mon baby, take a chance with us
C’mon baby, take a chance with us
And meet me at the back of the blue bus
Doin’ a blue rock
On a blue bus
Doin’ a blue rock
C’mon, yeah
Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill
This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end
It hurts to set you free
But you’ll never follow me
The end of laughter and soft lies
The end of nights we tried to die
This is the end

Dit is pas geniaal:
BOB DYLAN - Joey
Born in Red Hook Brooklyn in the year of who knows when
Opened up his eyes to the tune of an accordion
Always on the outside whatever side there was
When they asked him why it had to be that way "Well" he answered
"just because".
Larry was the oldest Joey was next to last
They called Joe "Crazy" the baby they called "Kid Blast"
Some say they lived off gambling and running numbers too
It always seemed they got caught between the mob and the men in
blue.
Joey, Joey
King of the streets child of clay
Joey, Joey
What made them want to come and blow you away.
There was talk they killed their rivals but the truth was far
from that
No one ever knew for sure where they were really at
When they tried to strangle Larry, Joey almost hit the roof
He went out that night to seek revenge thinking he was
bulletproof.
The war broke out at the break of dawn it emptied out the
streets
Joey and his brothers suffered terrible defeats
Till they ventured out behind the lines and took five prisoners
They stashed them away in a basement called them amateurs.
The hostages were trembling when they heard a man exclaim
"Let's blow this place to kingdom come let Con Edison take the
blame"
But Joey stepped up, and he raised his hand and said, "We're not
those kind of men
It's peace and quiet that we need to go back to work again".
Joey, Joey
King of the streets child of clay
Joey, Joey
What made them want to come and blow you away.
The police department hounded him, they called him Mr. Smith
They got him on conspiracy, they were never sure who with
"What time is it" said the judge to Joey when they met
"Five to ten" said Joey. The judge says, "That's exactly what
you get".
He did ten years in Attica, reading Nietzche and Wilhelm Reich
They threw him in the hole one time for trying to stop a strike
His closest friends were black men 'cause they seemed to
understand
What it's like to be in society with a shackle on your hand.
When they let him out in '71 he'd lost a little weight
But he dressed like Jimmy Cagney and I swear he did look great
He tried to find the way back into the life he left behind
To the boss he said, "I've returned and now I want what's mine".
Joey, Joey
King of the streets child of clay
Joey, Joey
What made them want to come and blow you away.
It was true that in his later years he would not carry a gun
"I'm around too many children", he'd say, "they should never
know of one"
Yet he walked right into the clubhouse of his lifelong deadly
foe
Emptied out his register, said, "Tell 'em it was Crazy Joe".
One day they blew him down in a clam bar in New York
He could see it coming through the doors as he lifted up his
fork
He pushed the table over to protect his family
Then he staggered out into the streets of Little Italy.
Joey, Joey
King of the streets child of clay
Joey, Joey
What made them want to come and blow you away.
Sister Jacqueline and Carmela and mother Mary all did weep
I heard his best friend Frankie say, "He ain't dead he's just
asleep"
Then I saw the old man's limousine head back towards the grave
I guess he had to say one last goodbye to the son that he could
not save.
The sun turned cold over President Street and the town of the
Brooklyn mourned
They said a mass in the old church near the house where he was
born
And someday if God's in heaven overlooking his preserve
I know the men that shot him down will get what they deserve.
Joey, Joey
King of the streets child of clay
Joey, Joey
What made them want to come and blow you away.
(Geschreven door Bob Dylan en Jacques Levy. Joey gaat over de beruchte Italiaans-Amerikaanse gangster Joey Gallo, voor wie Dylan duidelijk symphatie heeft. Geniale lyrics en prachtige muziek)

I keep hearing you're concerned about my happiness.
All that thought you're giving me is conscience, I guess.
If I were walking in your shoes, I wouldn't worry none.
While you and your friends are worrying 'bout me, I'm having lots of fun.
Counting flowers on the wall,
That don't bother me at all.
Playing Solitaire till dawn,
With a deck of fifty-one.
Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo.
Now, don't tell me I've nothing to do.
Last night I dressed in tails, pretended I was on the town.
As long as I can dream, it's hard to slow this swinger down.
So please don't give a thought to me, I'm really doing fine.
You can always find me here, having quite a time.
Counting flowers on the wall,
That don't bother me at all.
Playing Solitaire till dawn,
With a deck of fifty-one.
Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo.
Now, don't tell me I've nothing to do.
Well, it's good to see you, I must go, I know I look a fright.
Anyway my eyes are not accustomed to this light.
And my shoes are not accustomed to this hard concrete.
So I must go back to my room and make my day complete.
Counting flowers on the wall,
That don't bother me at all.
Playing Solitaire till dawn,
With a deck of fifty-one.
Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo.

Smashing Pumpkins - Bullet with Butterfly Wings
The world is a vampire, sent to drain
Secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames
And what do I get, for my pain
Betrayed desires, and a piece of the game
Even though I know-I suppose I'll show
All my cool and cold-like old job
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Now I'm naked, nothing but an animal
But can you fake it, for just one more show
And what do you want, I want to change
And what have you got
When you feel the same
Even though I know-I suppose I'll show
All my cool and cold-like old job
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Tell me I'm the only one
Tell me there's no other one
Jesus was the only son
Tell me I'm the chosen one
Jesus was the only son for you
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
And I still believe that I cannot be saved
(ik zal eerlijk zijn, heb de lyrics gewoon ge-copy+paste van internet, maar ik vind het een briljante tekst )
