Thirty Seconds To Mars - Rider

This is the last song on Thirty Seconds To Mars’ fantastic album America. This band is a really talented powerhouse.

Rider Lyrics

Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

Yeah, real as the rider on the storm
The silence where I'm going
A violence well tell you
Lord, you'll miss, you will miss me

When I'm gone (Oh, oh)
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

Yeah, real as the promise I've been making
A price that I've been paying, yeah
I loved you, I'll leave you
Lord, you miss, you will miss me

When I'm gone
When I'm gone
You will miss me
You will miss me
When I'm gone

Fito Páez Featuring Elvis Costello - Beer Blues

Someone'll be in the distance, for better or worse, between us

Beer Blues lyrics

Llegué de un viaje largo en London Town

So, so tired

Me fui directo al bar a beber unas pintas con Elvis

Pasamos esa noche pegándole al piano en Covent Garden

Improvisamos esta canción, letra y música de Beer Blues

From the pride of London to the tender Argentina

From the tears of tears to the tangled steps between us

We stumble off from city state

Of a home free will other when they fade

Singing "Get me one more round"

Another catch I have a thirst to quench

For all the peace and mercy that I need to feel

There's nothing more beautiful that we could steal!

La chica que al final nos dejó tan locos, no existe más

Rosario es un inmenso lugar que vive dentro mío

Nos agarró la noche caminando en mi ciudad

Muriéndonos de frío, uh uh

Por suerte en El Diablito ya estaban

Esperándonos mis mejores amigos

From the love and from Liverpool and Las Malvinas

Someone'll be in the distance, for better or worse, between us

La vida es así, vas viajando y vas cambiando de tonos

And I roll and I am more like a bowling ball in the gutter

Just forget the shit I'm in

As the town we'll all tumble like a kingpin

Deja la llave, yo cierro el hoy, el bar

Fito Páez & Elvis Costello - Radio Radio

What a great energy between Fito and Elvis in this clip.

"Radio Radio" lyrics

I was tuning in the shine on the light night dial
doing anything my radio advised
with every one of those late night stations
playing songs bringing tears to me eyes
I was seriously thinking about hiding the receiver
when the switch broke 'cause it's old
They're saying things that I can hardly believe.
They really think we're getting out of control.

[Chorus:]
Radio is a sound salvation
Radio is cleaning up the nation
They say you better listen to the voice of reason
But they don't give you any choice
'cause they think that it's treason.
So you had better do as you are told.
You better listen to the radio.

I wanna bite the hand that feeds me.
I wanna bite that hand so badly.
I want to make them wish they'd never seen me.

Some of my friends sit around every evening
and they worry about the times ahead
But everybody else is overwhelmed by indifference
and the promise of an early bed
You either shut up or get cut up;
they don't wanna hear about it.
It's only inches on the reel-to-reel.
And the radio is in the hands of such a lot of fools
tryin' to anaesthetise the way that you feel

[Chorus]

Wonderful radio
Marvelous radio
Wonderful radio
Radio, radio...

Radiohead - No Surprises

We’ll get there and it will all have been worth it. <3

No Surprises

Song by Radiohead

Lyrics

A heart that's full up like a landfill
A job that slowly kills you
Bruises that won't heal
You look so tired, unhappy
Bring down the government
They don't, they don't speak for us
I'll take a quiet life
A handshake of carbon monoxide

And no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
Silent, silent

This is my final fit
My final bellyache

With no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises, please

Such a pretty house
And such a pretty garden

No alarms and no surprises (get me out of here)
No alarms and no surprises (get me out of here)
No alarms and no surprises, please (get me out of here)

Billy Joel - It's Still Rock and Roll to Me

This is a Billy Joel performance that is a real pleasure to watch.

It's Still Rock and Roll to Me

Song

Lyrics

What's the matter with the clothes I'm wearing?
"Can't you tell that your tie's too wide?"
Maybe I should buy some old tab collars?
"Welcome back to the age of jive
Where have you been hidin' out lately, honey?
You can't dress trashy till you spend a lot of money"
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me
What's the matter with the car I'm driving?
"Can't you tell that it's out of style?"
Should I get a set of white wall tires?
"Are you gonna cruise a miracle mile?
Nowadays you can't be too sentimental
You best bet's a true baby blue Continental"
Hot funk, cool punk, even if it's old junk
It's still rock and roll to me
Oh, it doesn't matter what they say in the papers
'Cause it's always been the same old scene
There's a new band in town
But you can't get the sound from a story in a magazine...
Aimed at your average teen
How about a pair of pink sidewinders
And a bright orange pair of pants?
"You could really be a Beau Brummel baby
If you just give it half a chance
Don't waste your money on a new set of speakers
You get more mileage from a cheap pair of sneakers"
Next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me
What's the matter with the crowd I'm seeing?
"Don't you know that their out of touch?"
Should I try to be a straight 'A' student?
"If you are then you think too much
Don't you know about the new fashion honey?
All you need are looks and a whole lotta money"
It's the next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me

Dolly Parton - Three Candles

We’ve got some fresh music from Dolly’s album A Holly Dolly Christmas - great title!

"Three Candles" lyrics

Three candles, three candles
One for Christmas, one for me and one for you
Three wishes, three wishes
Three candles and three wishes
'Cause wishes do come true

Three candles shinning bright
Flickering and spreading light
To clear a pathway in the night
For all the world to see
You know me I'm always wishin'
It's so fun and it's so Christian
And it's my holiday tradition
Come on and sing with me

Three candles, three candles
One for Christmas, one for me and one for you
Three wishes, three wishes
Three candles and three wishes
'Cause wishes do come true
Three candles, three wishes
One for Christmas, one for me and one for you
Mmm-mmm-mmm, mmm-mmm

Blessings to you Dolly!

Bono (U2) - Running To Stand Still

Running To Stand Still Lyrics

And so she woke up
Woke up from where she was lyin' still
Said I gotta do something
About where we're goin'

Step on a steam train
Step out of the driving rain maybe
Run from the darkness in the night
Singing ooh la, ah la la la de day
Ah la la la de day
Ah la la la de day

Sweet the sin, bitter the taste in my mouth
I see seven towers, but I only see one way out
You gotta cry without weeping, talk without speaking
Scream without raising your voice

You know I took the poison, from the poison stream
Then I floated out of here, singing
Ah la la la de day
Ah la la la de day
Ah la la la de day

She walks through the streets
With her eyes painted red
Under a black belly of cloud in the rain

In through a doorway
She brings me white golden pearls
Stolen from the sea

She is ragin', she is ragin'
And the storm blows up in her eyes
She will suffer the needle chill
She's running to stand still

U2 - Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own

Another great message from U2. It is all about cooperation. There is no other way. The difficulty is trust, particularly in this scenario but hopefully our hearts will tell us what we need to know.

I thought I would do this, no one would understand and they would kill me but at least some one might benefit. Thank you for confounding my expectations. I’m very prone to gullibility and my experiences have not been very positive.

THANK YOU.

Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own Lyrics

Tough
You think you've got the stuff
You're telling me and anyone
You're hard enough

You don't have to put up a fight
You don't have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

We fight all the time
You and I, that's alright
We're the same soul

I don't need, I don't need to hear you say
That if we weren't so alike
You'd like me a whole lot more

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

I know that we don't talk
I'm sick of it all
Can you hear me when I sing?
You're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me

Hey now
Still got to let you know
A house doesn't make a home
Don't leave me here alone

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
Sometimes you can't make it
Best you can do, is to fake it
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
