Surprisingly soft, melancholy -> Nightwish's While Your Lips Are Still Red

"Sweet little words made for silence not talk
Young heart for love not heartache
Dark hair for catching the wind
Not to veil the sight of a cold world

Kiss while your lips are still red
While he's still silent
Rest while bosom is still untouched, unveiled
Hold another hand while the hand's still without a tool
Drown into eyes while they're still blind
Love while the night still hides the withering dawn..."

Intense? I think you listened to the wrong song.

Back to the 70's! -> Baby Huey - Hard Times

"
From my party house, I’m afraid to come outside
Although I’m filled with love I’m afraid they’ll hurt my pride
So I play the part I feel they want of me
And I pull the shades so I won’t see them seein’ me
Havin’ hard times in this crazy town
Havin’ hard times, there’s no love to be found
Havin’ hard times, in this crazy town
Havin’ hard times, there’s no love to be found"

Good song.

When I first heard it, the beginning made me think this was going to be a... less than stellar Muse song, but oh boy does it get better.

Only listened once.  I don't want to overdo it so that I'm sick of the song when the album is finally released.

Ah, have you seen her duet with Johnny Flynn on "Water?"  They are like two beautiful angels come down from heaven to sing with their angelic voices.  Even his scars just make him look more beautiful.  https://www.youtube....h?v=a4QQ7HYYdWw

Interesting.  Kind of different for a Muse song.


I want a new record from Modest Mouse or Doves, preferably immediately.

"Shapes of every size
Move behind the eyes
Doors inside my head
Bolted from within
Every drop of flame
Lights a candle in
Memory of the one
Who lives inside my head"
Shadow on the Sun- Audioslave

Other than Audioslave, I've been catching up on Muse in preparation for their new album.
I know everyone says Madness is a different sound for them, but I keep thinking about Endlessly from Absolution. I have high hopes for the new album. I was fairly disappointed in Resistance, but this one is shaping up well.

[Triskele]

I still love Doves.


Keep in mind that this was a band that temporarily thought they couldn't do anything but electronica vai their studio burning down, and they assumed they had no singer.

Wow, thanks for that!

Temptation of Adam

"...I never had to learn to love her like I learned to love the Bomb
She just came along and started to ignore me
But as we waited for the Big One
I started singing her my songs
And I think she started feeling something for me

We passed the time with crosswords that she thought to bring inside
What five letters spell "apocalypse" she asked me
I won her over saying "W.W.I.I.I."
She smiled and we both knew that she'd misjudged me..."

Holy shit that was brutal/poignant awesome.

"...I see my childhood, I'm back in the arms of my mother
I see my whole life, I see Christ, I see bright lights
I see Israelites, Muslims and Christians at peace, no fights  
Blacks, Whites, Asians, people of all types
I must have died, then I woke up, surprised I'm alive
I'm in a hospital bed, they rescued me, I survived  
I escaped the war, came back  
But ain't escape Agent Orange, two of my kids born handicapped
Spastic, quadriplegic, micro cephalic  Cerebral palsy,
cortical blindness, name it they had it  
My son died he ain't live, but I still try to think positive
Cause in life, God take, God give"

I just finished the opera Don Giovanni by Mozart with the chorus and orchestra of La Scala sung by Anna Netrebko and Bryn Terfel. It comes next the song called The conqueror worm 2 based in the work of E. Poe by Sopor Aeternus and the Ensable of Shadows and it comes next the Concerto no. 2 RV 279 La Stravaganza by Antonio Vivaldi with Rachel Podger
