I Woke up this morning,
downloaded "Modern Times",
listened, woke up again...

Don't these city lights bring the streets to life
All these crazy nights bring us together
Any rainy day you can dance your blues away
Don't these city lights bring us together

Lou Reed
 

“Being an intellectual creates a lot of questions and no answers.
You can fill your life up with ideas and still go home lonely.
All you really have that really matters are feelings.
That's what music is to me.”

Now I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?

Do I look like a slut?
Is it the way I move my butt?
Is it the way my clothes are cut?
I like to do it, and what?

Do I look like a slut?
Is it the way I move my butt?
Is it how my clothes are cut?
I don't give a fuck.

Hope Sandoval

Mensen waarvan duidelijk is dat hun zangstem

beperkt is, toch grijpen ze me meer naar

het hart (en de ballen) dan de

meeste (klassiek) geschoolde zangers.

Where have all the flowers gone?

When will we ever learn?

Never Get Out Of These Blues Alive

Yeah, the train left the station, it had two lights on behind,
Well, the blue light was my baby and the red light was my mind.
All my loves in vain.

I am interested in anything about revolt, disorder,
chaos-especially activity that seems to have no meaning.
It seems to me to be the road toward freedom...

For once, the hyperbole ist justified:
Louisiana Red is the Blues.

Het is tijd om Albert King te etaleren,
hij is de meester die jullie moeten eren,
zelfs Clapton, Hendrix en al d'anderen.

 I could take the Harlem night
and wrap around you,
Take the neon lights and make a crown,
Take the Lenox Avenue busses,
Taxis, subways,
And for your love song tone their rumble down.
Take Harlem's heartbeat,
Make a drumbeat,
Put it on a record, let it whirl,
And while we listen to it play,
Dance with you till day--
Dance with you, my sweet brown Harlem girl.

Shake hands with the devil,
make him crawl in the sand
I'm a woman,
I'm a ball of fire
I'm a woman,
I can make love to a crocodile
