Sing me goodnight: Flying Whales- Gojira

Μια δυνατή μέρα αξίζει μια δυνατή καληνύχτα και κανείς άλλος δε θα μπορούσε να την πει καλύτερα. 

"Gojira – Flying Whales"

Water of chaos
Have invaded all space
The flood on earth again
I have to find the whales
That once did guides us
To dry lands of life
I won't despair
I'll break this dark all around

Under the heavy sea
I'll search the flight of whales

Beneath the seas I searched
And had a different view
Of us on earth
The sinking ship of men
But it's beyond the stars
I found the place
Where they were
And they finally came to light

Over the winds
They dwell in light
Like the arrow in the sky
I found myself on higher grounds
From up here
For I see them in flight

Now I can see the whales
Looming out of the dark
Like arrows in the sky
I can't believe my eyes
But it's true

Huge tunnel ends in light
Like banks of clouds they gather
See massive shape of flesh
Swimming giants in the clear
The mightiest comes to me
I'm on the wing, wide open
They teach me how to fly
Slowly moving in the air

So much told with no words at all
Powerful presence for only speech
Breath

Over the winds
They dwell in light
Fly

Sing me goodnight: Πώς να την πεις την Αγάπη- Πάνος Μουζουράκης

Πώς να την πεις την Αγάπη

Πάντα θα ζητώ 

τα πρώτα, πρώτα ρήματα

μέσα μου να βρω, 

να ρθω στο στόμα να στα δώσω

Χτύποι της καρδιάς

μα πως να μεταφράζονται

πως να εξηγώ, τετράγωνα αυτό που νιώθω.

Πως να την πεις την αγάπη

ψάχνω κι όμως, ψάχνω κι όμως

πάντα περισσεύει κάτι.

Τη διπλώνω, τη στενεύω 

και την κλείνω σε παρένθεση

μα χάνω κατά γράμμα!

Δε συγκρίνονται οι λέξεις με το θαύμα

όλο πάω, όλο πάω, όλο πάω προσπαθώ 

όλο πάω κι όλο σπάω

λίγο πριν να σου το πω.

Πως να την πεις την αγάπη, 

να χα τρόπο, να `χα τρόπο

να στην έδινα σαν χάπι

Να `μουνα γιατρός μεγάλος 

να στην έβαζα με ένεση 

να νιώθεις ό,τι νιώθω .

Μα δε συγκρίνονται οι λέξεις 

με τον πόθο.

'Ολο πά , όλο πάω, όλο πάω, προσπαθώ

όλο πάω κι όλο σπάω λίγο πριν να σου το πω 

'Ολο πάω, όλο πάω, πίστεψέ με προσπαθώ

όλο πάω κι όλο σπάω λίγο πριν να σου το πω .

Κι όπως πάω πάντα μπλέκεται η γλώσσα, 

κοκκινίζω και σωπαίνω που είχα τόσα, 

τόσα δικά μου σα κόπους να σου πω, 

μα μια αρχή δε βρίσκω να λυθώ.

Και μένω εδώ!

Πως να την πεις την αγάπη

λέω βρήκα, λέω βρήκα κι όμως πάντα λείπει κάτι.

Σκάω φράσεις φυσαλίδες, προσπαθώ να δώσω έμφαση

μα πέφτω στο κενό τους.

Δε συγκρίνονται οι λέξεις με το φως.

Όλο πάω, όλο πάω, όλο πάω, προσπαθώ

όλο πάω κι όλο σπάω λίγο πριν να σου το πω.

Όλο πάω, όλο πάω πίστεψέ με προσπαθώ

όλο πάω κι όλο σπάω λίγο πριν να σου το πω

Sing me goodnight: Undisclosed desires- Muse

"Undisclosed Desires"

I know you've suffered

But I don't want you to hide

It's cold and loveless

I won't let you be denied

Soothing

I'll make you feel pure

Trust me

You can be sure

I want to reconcile the violence in your heart

I want to recognise your beauty's not just a mask

I want to exorcise the demons from your past

I want to satisfy the undisclosed desires in your heart

You trick your lovers

That you're wicked and divine

You may be a sinner

But your innocence is mine

Please me

Show me how it's done

Tease me

You are the one

I want to reconcile the violence in your heart

I want to recognise your beauty's not just a mask

I want to exorcise the demons from your past

I want to satisfy the undisclosed desires in your heart

Please me

Show me how it's done

Trust me

You are the one

I want to reconcile the violence in your heart

I want to recognise your beauty's not just a mask

I want to exorcise the demons from your past

I want to satisfy the undisclosed desires in your heart

Sing me goodnight: Heart-Shaped Glasses- Marilyn Manson

"Heart-Shaped Glasses (When The Heart Guides The Hand)"

She reminds me of the one in school

When I was cuttin'

She was dressed in white

And I couldn't take my eyes off her

But that's not what I took off that night

She'll never cover up what we did with her dress, no

She said kiss me

It'll heal

But it won't forget

Kiss me

It'll heal

But it won't forget

And I don't mind you keepin' me

On pins and needles

If I could stick to you

And you stick me too

Don't break

Don't break my heart

And I won't break your heart-shaped glasses

Little girl, little girl

You should close your eyes

That blue is getting me high

Don't break

Don't break my heart

And I won't break your heart-shaped glasses

Little girl, little girl

You should close your eyes

That blue is getting me high

And making me low

That blue is getting me high

And making me low

She reminds me of a one I knew

That cut up the negatives of my life

I couldn't take my hands off her

She wouldn't let me be anywhere but inside

And I don't mind you keepin' me

On pins and needles

If I could stick to you

And you stick me too

Just don't break

Don't break my heart

And I won't break your heart-shaped glasses

Little girl, little girl

You should close your eyes

That blue is getting me high

Don't break

Don't break my heart

And I won't break your heart-shaped glasses

Little girl, little girl

You should close your eyes

That blue is getting me high

And making me low

She'll never cover up what we did with her dress, no

She said kiss me

It'll heal

But it won't forget

Kiss me

It'll heal

But it won't forget

I don't mind you keepin' me

On pins and needles

If I could stick to you

And you stick me too

Don't break

Don't break my heart

And I won't break your heart-shaped glasses

Little girl, little girl

You should close your eyes

That blue is getting me high

Don't break

Don't break my heart

And I won't break your heart-shaped glasses

Little girl, little girl

You should close your eyes

That blue is getting me high

And making me low

Sing me goodnight: Animal instict- The Cranberries

Because we all have animal insticts

"Animal Instinct"

Suddenly something has happened to me

As I was having my cup of tea

Suddenly I was feeling depressed

I was utterly and totally stressed

Do you know you made me cry

Do you know you made me die

And the thing that gets to me

Is you'll never really see

And the thing that freaks me out

Is I'll always be in doubt

It is a lovely thing that we have

It is a lovely thing that we

It is a lovely thing, the animal

The animal instinct

So take my hands and come with me

We will change reality

So take my hands and we will pray

They won't take you away

They will never make me cry, no

They will never make me die

And the thing that gets to me

Is you'll never really see

And the thing that freaks me out

Is I'll always be in doubt

The animal, the animal, the animal instinct in me

It's the animal, the animal, the animal instinct in me

It's the animal, it's the animal, it's the animal instinct in me 

Sing me goodnight: Hungry eyes- Eric Carmen

Hungry Eyes

I've been meaning to tell you

I've got this feelin' that won't subside

I look at you and I fantasize

You're mine tonight

Now I've got you in my sights

With these hungry eyes

One look at you and I can't disguise

I've got hungry eyes

I feel the magic between you and I

I wanna hold you so hear me out

I wanna show you what love's all about

Darlin' tonight

Now I've got you in my sights

Now I've got you in my sights

With these hungry eyes

Now did I take you by surprise

I need you to see

This love was meant to be

Now I've got you in my sights

With these hungry eyes

Now did i take you by surprise

I need you to see

This love was meant to be.

I got Hungry Eyes

Sing me goodnight: Dance me to the end of love- The Civil Wars

Το συγκεκριμένο κομμάτι είναι ένα από τα πολύ αγαπημένα μου. Η συγκεκριμένα εκτέλεση είναι διασκευή από τους "The Civil Wars". Πρώτος το τραγούδησε ο μοναδικός Leonard Cohen το 1984 και ακολούθησαν πολλές διασκευές από διάφορους καλλιτέχνες.

Από τον τίτλο φαίνεται πως πρόκειται για ένα ερωτικό κομμάτι, παρ' όλα αυτά το τραγούδι αναφέρεται στο Ολοκαύτωμα.

Το 1996 κάποιος εκδοτικός οίκος κυκλοφόρησε ένα βιβλίο με τίτλο Dance Me to the End of Love, ως μέρος της σειράς του "Τέχνη και Ποίηση". Στο βιβλίο υπάρχουν στίχοι του τραγουδιού μαζί με πίνακες ζωγραφικής από τον Henri Matisse.

Σε μια συνέντευξη του ο Cohen είπε για το τραγούδι: 

'Dance Me to the End Of Love' ... it's curious how songs begin because the origin of the song, every song, has a kind of grain or seed that somebody hands you or the world hands you and that's why the process is so mysterious about writing a song. But that came from just hearing or reading or knowing that in the death camps, beside the crematoria, in certain of the death camps, a string quartet was pressed into performance while this horror was going on, those were the people whose fate was this horror also. And they would be playing classical music while their fellow prisoners were being killed and burnt. So, that music, "Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin," meaning the beauty there of being the consummation of life, the end of this existence and of the passionate element in that consummation. But, it is the same language that we use for surrender to the beloved, so that the song — it's not important that anybody knows the genesis of it, because if the language comes from that passionate resource, it will be able to embrace all passionate activity.

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to your beauty like a burning violin

Dance me through the panic 'til I'm gathered safely in

Lift me like an olive branch, be my homeward dove

And dance me to the end of love

Please dance me to the end of love

Oh let me see your beauty when the witnesses are gone

Oh let me feel you moving like they do in Babylon

Oh show me slowly what I only know the limits of

And dance me to the end of love

Please dance me to the end of love

La la, la la la, la la, la la la, la la, la la la

Oh dance me to the wedding now, oh, dance me on and on

And dance me very tenderly and dance me very long

We're both of us beneath our love, and both of us above

And dance me to the end of love, ooh

Won't you dance me to the end of love

La la, la la la, la la, la la la, la la, la la la

Σημ.: Η εκτέλεση από τον Cohen συνεχίζεται...

Dance me to the children who are asking to be born 

Dance me through the curtains that our kisses have outworn 

Raise a tent of shelter now, though every thread is torn 

Dance me to the end of love 

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin 

Dance me through the panic till I'm gathered safely in 

Touch me with your naked hand or touch me with your glove 

Dance me to the end of love 

Dance me to the end of love 

Dance me to the end of love

Sing me goodnight: Είναι ωραία η θάλασσα- Πυξ Λαξ

Είναι ωραία η θάλασσα

Θέλω να τρέξω να πετάξω να χαθώ

όμως φοβάμαι τι θα γίνει αν γυρίσω

τον εαυτό μου να γελάσω προσπαθώ

μα κάπου μέσα μου βαθειά δε θα τον πείσω.

Αυτά σκεφτότανε τα βράδια στη δουλειά

κι η γκρίζα αύρα της γινότανε πιο μαύρη

θλιμμένα ναι, καλά ευχαριστώ

μα άλλο πράγμα τη τρυπάει και τη χαλάει..

Είναι ωραία η θάλασσα γιατί κινείται πάντα

κι αν έχεις βρει πολλές στεριές καμία δε σ’ αράζει

δώσ’ μου για φιλοδώρημα τραγούδι με τη μπάντα 

είναι ωραία η θάλασσα γιατί με σένα μοιάζει.

Άσε με άνθρωπε να κάνω ότι αισθάνομαι

βαρέθηκα για πράγματα σωστά να μου μιλάνε

πες μου μονάχα τι ποτό γεμίζει το ποτήρι σου 

κι αν θέλεις περισσότερο εδώ δε σε κερνάνε.

Δε τελειώνει η ζωή σε μία άρνηση

κι αν έχεις άντερα την άρνηση ακολούθα 

τι σε πειράζει αν σε δείχνουνε στο σπίτι σου

γιατί εφόρεσες ανάποδα τα ρούχα.

Είναι ωραία η θάλασσα...
