Qu'écoutez-vous en ce moment ?

Simon & Garfunkel : "Bridge over troubled water"

Lean on me (when you're not strong) - Bill Withers

The prodigy : "Breathe"
Buddy Guy : "(You're damn right) I've got the blues"

I am listening to one of the finest love songs i know,
"Here I Am" by Lyle Lovett:


Hello, I'm the guy who sits next to you
And reads the newspaper over your shoulder
Wait
Don't turn the page
I'm not finished
Life is so uncertain

Here I am
Yes it's me
Take my hand
And you'll see
Here I am
Yes it's true
All I want
Girl is you

Given that true intellectual and emotional compatability
Are at the very least difficult
If not impossible to come by
We could always opt for the more temporal gratification
Of sheer physical attraction
That wouldn't make you a shallow person
Would it

Here I am
Yes it's me
Take my hand
And you'll see
Here I am
And it's true
All I want
Girl is you

If Ford is to Chevrolet
What Dodge is to Chrysler
What Corn Flakes are to Post Toasties
What the clear blue sky is to the deep blue sea
What Hank Williams is to Neil Armstrong
Can you doubt we were made for each other

Here I am
Yes it's me
Take my hand
And you'll see
Here I am
Yes it's true
All I want
Girl is you

Look
I understand too little too late
I realize there are things you say and do
You can never take back
But what would you be if you didn't even try
You have to try
So after a lot of thought
I'd like to reconsider
Please
If it's not too late
Make it a cheeseburger

Here I am
Yes it's me
Take my hand
And you'll see
Here I am
Yes it's true
All I want

Girl is you

One more Lyle Lovett:


Ain't it somethin'
When the telephone is ringing
Ain't it somethin'
When she says hello
Ain't it somethin'
When she hears me singing
Ain't it somethin'
When she still says no...

CC I LOVE LYLE !! especially "Old Friend" and "Just the morning"
anf of course the faboulouse cd "Step inside this house"

En ce moment et de facon quasi exclusive, le dernier album de livingston Taylor

Magnifique !

"Heartbeat" King Crimson

encore "when the world was round" de Ian Hunter, je ne m'en lasse pas.

"It must be love" Rickie Lee Jones

Eva Cassidy, encore, encore et encore.... tant que je n'aurai pas compris comment elle faisait pour placer ses textes avec 1/2 mesure de retard, sans pourrir ses morceaux, et au contraire, en faire les meilleures versions jamais entendues....

Je ne sais pas si ça vous cause, mais cette nana est un mystère de la musique... dommage qu'elle n'ait jamais repris du JT !!!

Carly Simon/JT- "Mockingbird"

At this moment in eternity, we are not together, for you are a million miles away. And yet, you are here with me.
When I look upward at night, to see the moon and stars dangling from the sky, I'm reminded that you look up at the same ceiling.


So often, when I need an encouraging word, I play your voice in my mind. It soothes me and reassures me that everything will be ok.
In my moments of doubt and insecurity, you are with me, and you strengthen me.

There are aspects of me that you have changed for the better. So when I reach out to people with the caring you evoked within me, it is as if we are both helping them.
You are with me in moments of kindness, and we do good things together.

There are times when I think of you and suddenly a warm peaceful feeling washes over me and touches me at the core. I don't know how to explain it, but I know there is something of you that lives in me.
You are within me

Fanny, "Just the morning" is also one of my favorite Lyle songs. "Bears" is another one.
I was listening to Beth Gibbons w/ Rustin Man today. Now i go for Miles Davis with Bill Evans "Kind of Blue"

"Born under a bad sign" : Albert King
"Everyday I've got the blues" : BB King
"Tattooed Lady" : Rory Gallagher
"Mide away" : Fressie King
"Wake up call" : John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers

L'Adagio for strings de Samuel Barber

Bob Dylan's "Lilly, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts"

"...Be careful not to touch the wall, there's a brand-new coat of paint, I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint..."

Yessssss

Encore "Heartbeat" de King Crimson

I need to feel your heartbeat heartbeat
So close, feels like mine
All mine
I need to feel your heartbeat heartbeat
So close it feels like mine
All mine...
I remember the feeling
My hands in your hair
Hands in your hair
I remember the feeling
Of the rhythm we made
The rhythm we made
I need to land sometime
Right next to you
Feel your heartbeat heartbeat
Right next to me.....

"If Tomorrow Never Comes"

Sometimes late at night
I lie awake and watch her sleeping
She's lost in peaceful dreams
So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark
And the thought crosses my mind
If I never wake up in the morning
Would she ever doubt the way I feel
About her in my heart

If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face the world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes

'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life
Who never knew how much I loved them
Now I live with the regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much she means to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel

If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face the world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes

So tell that someone that you love
Just what you're thinking of
If tomorrow never comes

Ah if tomorrow never comes...
j'adore Garth Brooks, meme si ce n'est peut etre pas lui que tu ecoutais David.

Ca me fait penser que j'ai entendu a la radio une tres belle version de "don't cross the river" de America par Garth Brooks
Je ne connaissais pas la version, tres sympa

Taj Mahal "Cakewalk Into Town"

..."oh baby, my work it done got hard,

I spend my whole day stealin' chickens Honey from the rich folks yard.."

Dr. John from "Tango Palace"....you gotta "Keep the music simple" (be sure to make it funky)

Kenny Rogers "Daytime friends and nighttime lovers"

And he'll tell her he's working late again

But she knows too well there's something going on

She's been neglected, and she needs a friend

So her trembling fingers dial the telephone



Lord, it hurts her doing this again

He's the best friend that her husband ever knew

When she's lonely, he's more than just a friend

He's the one she longs to give her body to



Daytime friends and nighttime lovers

Hoping no one else discovers

Where they go, what they do, in their secret hideaway

Daytime friends and nighttime lovers

They don't want to hurt the others

So they love in the nighttime

And shake hands in the light of day



When it's over, there's no peace of mind

Just a longing for the way things should have been

And she wonders why some men never find

That a woman needs a lover and a friend



Daytime friends and nighttime lovers

Hoping no one else discovers

Where they go, what they do, in their secret hideaway

Daytime friends and nighttime lovers

They don't want to hurt the others

So they love in the nighttime

And shake hands in the light of day



Daytime friends and nighttime lovers

Phil Collins "True Colors"

You with the sad eyes
Dont be discouraged
Oh I realize
Its hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness inside you
Can make you feel so small

But I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And thats why I love you
So dont be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow

Show me a smile then,
Dont be unhappy, cant remember
When I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy
And youve taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know Ill be there

And Ill see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And thats why I love you
So dont be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow

(when I last saw you laughing)
If this world makes you crazy
And youve taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know Ill be there

And Ill see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And thats why I love you
So dont be afraid to let them show

Your true colors
True colors
True colors
Shining through

I see your true colors
And thats why I love you
So dont be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow
