Def Leppard - Love Bites (live in Don Valley)

"Love Bites" is a power ballad recorded by british rock band Def Leppard in 1987 on the album „Hysteria”.

The title "Love Bites" was originally used for a very different song that was eventually re-titled "I Wanna Be Your Hero", and which appeared as a Hysteria B-side and later on the album Retro Active.

Following the huge momentum generated by "Pour Some Sugar on Me", the song was released in August 1988 and quickly shot to the top of the U.S. charts, dethroning Bobby McFerrin's "Don't Worry Be Happy". It stayed there for one week before giving up the position to UB40's "Red Red Wine". The song also hit number eleven in the UK (their second best showing from the album).

UPCOMING: Great Britain’s premier arena rock band Def Leppard will take over The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Las Vegas in the spring of 2013 with „Viva Hysteria!”. Details are here.

The lyrics are:

Motto:

If you've got love in your sights

Watch out, love bites

When you make love, do you look in the mirror?

Who do you think of, does he look like me?

Do you tell lies and say that it's forever

Do you think twice or just touch 'n' see

Ooh babe oh yeah

When you're alone do you let go

Are you wild 'n' willin' or is it just for show

Ooh c'mon

I don't wanna touch you too much baby

'Cos makin' love to you might drive me crazy

I know you think that love is the way you make it

So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it

No!

Love bites love bleeds - it's bringin' me to my knees

Love lives love dies - it's no surprise

Love begs love pleads - it's what I need

When I'm with you are you somewhere else

Am I gettin' thru or do you please yourself

When you wake up will you walk out

It can't be love if you throw it about

Ooh babe

I don't wanna touch you too much baby

'Cos makin' love to you might drive me crazy

Love bites love bleeds - it's bringin' me to my knees

Love lives love dies - it's no surprise

Love begs love pleads - it's what I need

I don't wanna touch you too much baby

'Cos makin' love to you might drive me crazy

I know you think that love is the way you make it

So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it

No!

Love bites love bleeds - it's bringin' me to my knees

Love lives, love dies

Love bites love bleeds - it's bringin' me to my knees

Love lives love dies - it's no surprise

Love begs love pleads - it's what I need

If you've got love in your sights

Watch out, love bites

Melanie - Look What They Done To My Song, Ma (Live at the Royal Albert Hall, 1972)

Melanie Anne Safka-Schekeryk (born February 3, 1947) is an american singer-songwriter.

Known professionally as simply Melanie, she is best known for her hits "Brand New Key", "Ruby Tuesday", "Look What They've Done to My Song, Ma" and " The Good Book”.

When she became an official UNICEF ambassador in 1972, she agreed to forgo a world tour in favor of raising money for the organization.

In October 2012, Melanie collaborated with John Haldoupis, the artistic and managing director of Blackfriars Theatre in Rochester, New York, to create an original musical about her love story with her late husband, Peter. Melanie and the Record Man made its world premiere on October 19 with performances scheduled until October 28. The musical, conceived and designed by Haldoupis, features the music of Melanie and tells the story of her Peter meeting, falling in love, and working together to produce her music. Melanie performs during the musical and was also the narrator. Her son, Beau Jarred, was the musical director and also performed. Mandy Hassett, of New York City, played the younger Melanie and Nick Faruch played Peter.

The lyrics are:

Look what they've done to my song, Ma

Look what they've done to my song

Well it's the only thing I could do half right

And it's turning out all wrong, Ma

Look what they've done to my song

Look what they've done to my brain, Ma

Look what they've done to my brain

Well they picked it like a chicken bone

And I think I'm half insane, Ma

Look what they've done to my song

I wish I could find a good book to live in

Wish I could find a good book

Well, if I could find a real good book

I'd never have to come out and look at

What they've done to my song

La la la…

Look what they've done to my song

But maybe it'll all be all right, Ma

Maybe it'll all be OK

Well, if the people are buying tears

I'll be rich some day, Ma

Look what they've done to my song

Ils ont changé ma chanson, Ma

Ils ont changé ma chanson

C'est la seule chose que je peux faire

Et çe n'est pas bon, Ma

Ils ont changé ma chanson

Look what they've done to my song, Ma

Look what they've done to my song

Well they tied it up in a plastic bag

And turned it upside down

Look what they've done to my song

Ils ont changé ma chanson, Ma…

Look what they've done to my song, Ma

Look what they've done to my song

Well it's the only thing I could do all right

And they turned it upside down

Look what they've done to my song

Roy Orbison - In Dreams (live)

Cântecul datează din 1963. A redobândit faimă mondială în 1987 când Orbison a lansat o antologie cu cele mai mare hit-uri ale sale; un an mai devreme, în 1986, regizorul David Lynch a folosit melodia în provocatorul său thriller „Blue Velvet”, ajutând prin utilizarea acestei piese și la revigorarea carierei lui Roy Orbison.

"In Dreams" is a song composed and sung by rock and roll performer Roy Orbison in 1963. The song has a unique structure in seven musical movements in which Orbison sings through two octaves, beyond the range of most rock and roll singers.

It gained notability again in 1987 when Orbison released a re-recorded anthology of his greatest hits; the year prior David Lynch had used the song provocatively in his dark thriller Blue Velvet, helping to revive Orbison's career.

Orbison later claimed that the origin for "In Dreams" came to him while he was sleeping, as many of his songs did. He often heard music while asleep with a radio disc jockey announcing that it was Elvis Presley's new song.

For this song, however, he was half awake when he imagined it, and thought, "Boy that's good. I need to finish that. Too bad things don't happen in my dreams." When he woke up the next morning, the entire composition was written in 20 minutes.

The lyrics are:

A candy-colored clown they call the sandman

Tiptoes to my room every night

Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper:

"Go to sleep, everything is alright"

I close my eyes

Then I drift away

Into the magic night

I softly sway

Oh smile and pray

Like dreamers do

Then I fall asleep

To dream my dreams of you

In dreams...I walk with you

In dreams...I talk to you

In dreams...Your mine

All of the time

We're together

In dreams...In dreams

But just before the dawn

I awake and find you gone

I can't help it...I can't help it

If I cry

I remember

That you said goodbye

To end all these things

And I'll be happy in my dreams

Only in dreams

In beautiful dreams

Eric Clapton - Tears In Heaven (Official Video)

Povestea din spatele melodiei este una foarte tristă, aceasta apărând într-un moment de cumpănă pentru cariera lui Eric Clapton. După ce în 1990, într-un accident de elicopter, câțiva apropiați (printre care și managerul său) au murit, în 1991, copilul său de patru ani a murit după ce a căzut de la al 53-lea etaj al unui apartament din New York. O poveste extrem tristă care l-a marcat, care a dat naștere acestui cântec.

Vizibil afectat de pierderea suferita, Eric Clapton a compus acest cantec trist, care a fost si cel mai de succes dintre piesele sale.

Alte informații despre melodie:

Piesa a apărut pe soundtrack-ul filmului Rush (1991);
Will Jennings a luat parte la scrierea versurilor (este un textier american celebru; el a scris și versurile de la „My Heart Will Go On”);
Melodia a fost inclusă în 2004 pe lista Rolling Stone: The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

Versurile sunt:

Would you know my name

If I saw you in heaven?

Would you feel the same

If I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong and carry on

Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven...

Would you hold my hand

If I saw you in heaven?

Would you help me stand

If I saw you in heaven?

Ill find my way through night and day

Cause I know I just can't stay here in heaven...

Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees

Time can break your heart, have you begging please...begging please

Beyond the door there's peace Im sure

And I know therell be no more tears in heaven...

Would you know my name

If I saw you in heaven?

Would you feel the same

If I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong and carry on

Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven...

Blowing In The Wind - Bob Dylan (Live on TV, March 1963)

"Blowin' in the Wind" is a song written by Bob Dylan in 1962 and released on his album The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan in 1963. Although it has been described as a protest song, it poses a series of rhetorical questions about peace, war and freedom.

The refrain "The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind" has been described as "impenetrably ambiguous: either the answer is so obvious it is right in your face, or the answer is as intangible as the wind".

"Blowin' in the Wind" has been described as an anthem of the 1960s civil rights movement.

In Martin Scorsese's documentary on Dylan, No Direction Home, Mavis Staples expressed her astonishment on first hearing the song, and said she could not understand how a young white man could write something which captured the frustration and aspirations of black people so powerfully.

The lyrics are:

How many roads most a man walk down

Before you call him a man ?

How many seas must a white dove sail

Before she sleeps in the sand ?

Yes, how many times must the cannon balls fly

Before they're forever banned ?

The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Yes, how many years can a mountain exist

Before it's washed to the sea ?

Yes, how many years can some people exist

Before they're allowed to be free ?

Yes, how many times can a man turn his head

Pretending he just doesn't see ?

The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Yes, how many times must a man look up

Before he can see the sky ?

Yes, how many ears must one man have

Before he can hear people cry ?

Yes, how many deaths will it take till he knows

That too many people have died ?

The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Moon Over Bourboon Street – Sting

(live at Universal Amphitheatre – 2000)

„The Dream of the Blue Turtles” (1 june 1985) is the first solo album by Sting.

The song Moon Over Bourboon Street embodies what vampire stories SHOULD have at their core.
It’s not about sex. It’s the concept that now changed as a person, there is no going back, and you can’t change your new direction, you either have to accept, embrace or die.

Sting said it was inspired by Anne Rice's book "Interview With A Vampire''.

The lyrics are:

There's a moon over bourbon street tonight

I see faces as they pass beneath the pale lamplight

I've no choice but to follow that call

The bright lights the people and the moon and all

I pray everyday to be strong

For I know what I do must be wrong

Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet

While there's a moon over bourbon street

It was many years ago that I became what I am

I was trapped in this life like an innocent lamb

Now I can never show my face at noon

And you'll only see me walking by the light of the moon

The brim of my hat hides the eye of a beast

I've the face of a sinner but the hands of a priest

Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet

While there's a moon over bourbon street

She walks everyday through the streets of New Orleans

She's innocent and young from a family of means

I have stood many times outside her window at night

To struggle with my instinct in the pale moonlight

How could I be this way when I pray to god above

I must love what I destroy and destroy the thing I love

Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet

While there's a moon over bourbon street.

Tom Waits - Waltzing Matilda (live 1977)

Wasted and wounded

And it ain't what the moon did

I got what I paid for now

See you tomorrow

Hey Frank can I borrow

A couple of bucks from you

To go waltzing Matilda waltzing Matilda

You'll go waltzing Matilda with me

I'm an innocent victim

of a blinded alley

And I'm tired of all these soldiers here

No-one speaks English

And everything's broken

And my strength is soaking away

To go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda

You'll go a waltzing Malitda with me

Now the dogs they are barking

and the taxi cab's parking

A lot they can do for me

I begged you to stab me

You tore my shirt open

And I'm down on my knees tonight

Old bushmills I staggered

You buried the dagger

Your silhouette window light

To go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda

You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me

Now I've lost my St. Christopher

Now that I kissed her

And the one-arm bandit knows

And the maverick Chinaman

with the cold-blooded sigh

And the girls down by the striptease shows go

Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda

You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me

No I don't want your sympathy

Fugitives say

that the streets aren't for dreaming now

Manslaughter dragnet

and the ghost that sells memories

Want a piece of the action anyhow

Go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda

You'll go waltzing Matilda with me

And you can ask any sailor

And the keys from the jailor

And the old men in wheelchairs know

That Matilda's the defendant

She killed about a hundred

And she follows wherever you may go

Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda

You'll go waltzing Matilda with me

And it's a battered old suitcase

in a hotel someplace

And a wound that would never heal

No prima donnas the perfume is on

and old shirt that is stained with blood and whiskey

And goodnight to the street-sweepers,

The night watchmen flame-keepers

And goodnight Matilda too

Goodnight Matilda too.

My Way - Frank Sinatra (Live at Caesar Palace - 1978)

And now the end is near

And so I face the final curtain

My friend I'll say it clear

I'll state my case of which I'm certain

I've lived a life that's full

I traveled each and every highway

And more, much more than this

I did it my way

Regrets I've had a few

But then again too few to mention

I did what I had to do

And saw it through without exemption

I planned each charted course

Each careful step along the byway

And more, much more than this

I did it my way

Yes there were times I'm sure you knew

When I bit off more than I could chew

But through it all when there was doubt

I ate it up and spit it out, I faced it all

And I stood tall and did it my way

I've loved, I've laughed and cried

I've had my fill, my share of losing

And now as tears subside

I find it all so amusing

To think I did all that

And may I say not in a shy way

Oh no, oh no, not me

I did it my way

For what is a man what has he got

If not himself then he has not

To say the things he truly feels

And not the words of one who kneels

The record shows I took the blows

And did it my way

Yes it was my way
