Patti Smith & Sarah McLachlan - Because The Night, Nov 2006
 

Well this is far out at the moment, but I just found it being a classic performance.
Searching the archives for something else, this video will do in the meantime.

Sarah MacLachlan waits upstairs. Have bought my first CD of her.

The Rolling Stones - A Bigger Bang - It Won't Take Long


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXM3N0uu0xY

Baby it won't take long to forget you
Time it passes fast
It'll all be over in a minute
You'll be in the past

You can lose the love of a lifetime
In a single roll
You can gain a fortune in an instant
Or you can lose your soul

And it won't take long to forget ya
You know I'm never wrong
It'll all be over in a minute
And it won't take long

And it won't take long to forgive ya
But it's hard to forget
'Cause it seems like it's yesterday
The day that we first met

When you give me a smouldering look and
Put out your cigarette
When I saw you come samtering over
 You wore a pale blue dress

(Repeat Chorus)
 
Life is short, one look and it's over
Comes as quite a shock
All I got is some memories
Stuck in an old shoebox

And it won't take long to forget ya
You know I'm never wrong
It'll all be over by Christmas
No, it won't take long

It won't take long

Only for Soma.

What even Swedes could not vote for, a childish sex party performed by the long gone Army of Lovers.

I have to be "fair" (Libras are fair) but there is another guy that I know that just made a contribution in the latest Eurovision election in Sweden. Unfortunately they (The army of Lovers) tried to make some kind of homo propaganda in their music number. It is all a rather complicated story and what I can say is that "La Camilla" is the Queen and the most "serious" of them all in this session.

The guy (Alexander) that I only have met once, 35 years ago, is the little redbearded fellow with a guitar. I happens to be a friend of his older sister Maria, and I met Maria (on my proposal) at a café in november, and we have decided to resume our connection, so we (family wise) will meet again this summer.

The Army of Lovers were a real hit machine in the early 1990's.

Sixto Rodriguez- Cause [1971]


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKFkc19T3Dk

Cause I lost my job two weeks before Christmas
And I talked to Jesus at the sewer
And the Pope said it was none of his God-damned business
While the rain drank champagne

My Estonian Archangel came and got me wasted
Cause the sweetest kiss I ever got is the one I've never tasted
Oh but they'll take their bonus pay to Molly McDonald,
Neon ladies, beauty is that which obeys, is bought or borrowed

Cause my heart's become a crooked hotel full of rumours
But it's I who pays the rent for these fingered-face out-of-tuners
and I make 16 solid half hour friendships every evening

Cause your queen of hearts who is half a stone
And likes to laugh alone is always threatening you with leaving
Oh but they play those token games on Willy Thompson
And give a medal to replace the son of Mrs. Annie Johnson

Cause they told me everybody's got to pay their dues
And I explained that I had overpaid them
So overdued I went to the company store
and the clerk there said that they had just been invaded
So I set sail in a teardrop and escaped beneath the doorsill

Cause the smell of her perfume echoes in my head still
Cause I see my people trying to drown the sun
In weekends of whiskey sours
Cause how many times can you wake up in this comic book and plant flowers?

We are about to watch the movie "searching for Sugar Man, now on Saturday.

We have this selection of a hit to Eurovision Song Contest going on in Sweden. One of the contributions was made by a singer/songwriter from our town. A young lady that I have been talking to, and I also know her brother Lars, a bit better - because he is of the same age as me. her name is Louise Hoffsten and their father was a famous Jazz musician with his own band.

Despite her young age Lousie suffers from MS (Multipel Sclerosis) so it is always unsure if she can do a performance. But she did deliver the other weekend and immideately got a final position in the Swedish election. And she is, and has always been, so fantastic with the harmonica.

MS eh? I noticed she had a strained face in the section at the beginning of that clip, and was wondering why - obviously not completely comfortable with the stage. She did a nice rendition, and it's a great title.

You have astute observations M.
"Our" Louise, ended up as the fourth favorite of the Swedish voters in the final competition. And that is good because she represented good old Rock´n Roll. The winning concept today is artificial Disco music.

David Bowie doing Rock 'n' Roll Suicide live - at HAMMERSMITH '73


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLZNBbxJ2xo

Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth
 You pull on your finger, then another finger, then your
cigarette
 The wall-to-wall is calling, it lingers, then you forget
 Ohhh, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide
 
You're too old to lose it, too young to choose it
 
And the clock waits so patiently on your song
 You walk past a cafe but you don't eat when you've lived
too long
 Oh, no, no, no, you're a rock 'n' roll suciide
 
Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road
 
But the day breaks instead so you hurry home
 Don't let the sun blast your shadow
 Don't let the milk float ride your mind
 You're so natural - religiously unkind
 
Oh no love! you're not alone
 You're watching yourself but you're too unfair
 You got your head all tangled up but if I could only make you care
 Oh no love! you're not alone
 No matter what or who you've been
 No matter when or where you've seen
 All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
 I've had my share, I'll help you with the pain
 You're not alone

Just turn on with me and you're not alone
Let's turn on with me and you're not alone
 Let's turn on and be not alone
 Gimme your hands cause you're wonderful [x2]
 Oh gimme your hands.

far out - as it was these days ...

Album Ziggy Stardust

[Jahn]

He looked a lot like Che Guevara,
drove a diesel van
 Kept his gun in quiet seclusion,
 such a humble man
 The only survivor of the National People's Gang
 Panic in Detroit, I asked for an autograph
 He wanted to stay home, I wish someone would phone
 
Panic in Detroit
 
He laughed at accidental sirens that broke the evening
gloom
 The police had warned of repercussions
 
They followed none too soon
 A trickle of strangers were all that were left alive
 Panic in Detroit, I asked for an autograph
 He wanted to stay home, I wish someone would phone
 
Panic in Detroit
 
Putting on some clothes I made my way to school
 And I found my teacher
 crouching in his overalls
 
I screamed and ran to smash my favorite slot machine
 And jumped the silent cars that slept at traffic lights
 
Having scored a trillion dollars,
made a run back home
 
Found him slumped across the table.
A gun and me alone
 I ran to the window. Looked for a plane or two
 Panic in Detroit.
He'd left me an autograph
 "Let me collect dust."
I wish someone would phone
 
Panic in Detroit

Sugarman
Won't ya hurry
Coz I'm tired of these scenes
For a blue coin
Won't ya bring back
All those colours to my dreams
Silver majik ships, you carry
Jumpers, coke, sweet MaryJane
Sugarman
Met a false friend
On a lonely, dusty road
Lost my heart
When I found it
It had turned to dead, black coal
Silver majik ships, you carry
Jumpers, coke, sweet MaryJane
Sugarman
You're the answer
That makes my questions disappear
Sugarman
Coz I'm weary
Of these double games I hear
Sugarman (x7)
[....fade to echo]
Sugarman
Won't ya hurry
Coz I'm tired of these scenes
For a blue coin
Won't ya bring back
All those colours to my dreams
Silver majik ships, you carry
Jumpers, coke, sweet MaryJane
Sugarman
Met a false friend
On a lonely, dusty road
Lost my heart
When I found it
It had turned to dead, black coal
Silver majik ships, you carry
Jumpers, coke, sweet MaryJane
Sugarman
You're the answer
That makes my questions disappear
