(bkz: dark was the night)
(bkz: yeasayer)

so you're wishing that you never did
all the embarrasing things you've done

and you're wishing you could set it right
and you're wishing you could stay tonight

but then i go again, wishing never solved the problem
if you wanna get it big time, go ahead and get it get it big time

ah,ah..
ah,ah..

so you think you can solve all your problems by yourself
nevermind nevermind nevermind nevermind

and i think i can solve all my problems by myself
nevermind, nevermind, nevermind, nevermind

ah,ah..
ah,ah..

oh, give it, give it, give it, give it, give it
until you just can't give no more

janelle monae'in gelecek ay çıkacak olan albümü the archandroid'in ilk singılı. outkast'ten destekçisi big boi ile fiçıring yapmış. klibi youtube'da dönüyor. ben çok beğendim. hem şarkı, hem klip acayip eğlenceli. sonraki aylarda şarkının da, albümün de ses getireceğini düşünüyorum. daha doğrusu, istiyorum. bu sefer many moons'tan da çok tutsun, güzel işlerinin devamını getirsin. seviyorum bu kızı ya.

klibi şöyle: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwnefuakcbc

sözleri de şöyle:

monae and leftfoot

but i'm another flavor
something like a terminator
ain't no equivocating
i fight for what i believe
why you talkin' bout it
s-s-she's talkin' bout it
some callin me a sinner
some callin me a winner
i'm callin you to dinner
and you know exactly what i mean,

yeah i'm talkin bout you
you can rock or you can leave
watch me tip without you

n-n-now whether i'm high or low

gece gece dilime dolanıp hala etkisinde olduğum, papa roach'u daha da çok sevmeme yol açan şarkı.

(buzzy - 4 Haziran 2010 11:26)

ilk olarak letterman showda ki harika canlı performansıyla keşfettiğim janelle monae'nin , insanı olduğu yerde zıplatan, içine enerji dolduran güzel şarkısı. özellikle klibi de, dansları da çok eğlenceli olmuş.

(mszebra - 27 Eylül 2010 11:45)

b.o.b. ve lupe fiasco ile bir de remixini yapmışlar. fena olmamış, benim hoşuma gitti ama kesinlikle orijinalinin yerini tutamaz tabi.
janelle monae'yi rap yaparken de görmüş oluyoruz böylece.

bir bob seger parçası. like a rock albümünden. sözleri; ^*

saw you walkin' on a backstreet honey
tryin' to slip away
did you find someone to take your money
and did it make your day
take a lesson from someone who's been there
there are lots of roads that lead you nowhere

i can see it in your blank stare baby
someone's done you in
everybody hits the hard truth some time
it's your time again
so you're lonesome and the night's approachin'
honey this is where the tough get goin'

welcome to the tightrope
between memory and pain

welcome to the tightrope
between the freedom and the chain
welcome to the tightrope
stretched high above the street
welcome to the tightrope
it's right beneath your feet

once you learn to balance truth and sorrow
you can worry about the rest tomorrow

up there on the tightrope
oh it's a tightrope
you're walkin' on a tightrope

(mayonezliarmut - 13 Temmuz 2011 09:21)

sözleri, sözlerin şarkı bütününde dağılışı, funk-reggea esintileri dolayısıyla hidden track de olsa fark edilmesi imkansız papa roach şarkısı... neden bilmem ama, kafa içinde yankılandında özgüven aşılıyor; belki de şarkı, 'bir şeyleri bilen' bir adamın ifşa çabası olduğu için...

(makinedeki hayalet - 28 Temmuz 2011 16:24)

papa roacha ait bu $arkinin sozleri ise:

my words are weapons, in which i murder you with.
please don't be scared. please do not turn your head.
we are the future, the 21st century dislexik, glue-sniffing, cyber sluts.
with homicidal minds and hand-guns.
we are insane.
nothing will change.
we are in-sane.
nothing will ch-a-n-ge

there is a thin line between what is good and what is evil,
i will tip-toe down that line but i will feel unstable,
my life is a circus and i am trippin' down the tightrope,
well there is nothin' to save me now,
so i will not look down.

and yeah, and yeah, and yeah and it happens again.
and yeah, and yea-hea.

there's no beginning, there is no end.
there is only change.
progression backwards, is this where we are heading?
take back your soul, forget your emptyness

there is a thin line between what is good and what is evil,
i will tip-toe down that line but i will feel unstable.
my life is a circus and i am trippin' down the tightrope.
well there is nothin' to save me now,
i'm falling to the ground!

falling to the ground,
down to the ground,
(again)

i speak of maddness, my heart and soul.
i cry for people who ain't got control.
let's take our sanity, let's take compassion,
and be responsible for every action.

hell no, no how.
no way, no way, no way, no how.
no way, no how.

stevie ray vaughan $arkisi.

caught up in a whirlwind, can't catch my breath.
knee deep in hot water, broke out in cold sweat.
can't catch a turtle, in this rat race.
feels like i'm losing ground, at a breakneck pace.

afraid of my own shadow, in the face of grace.
heart full of darkness, spotlight on my face.
there was love all around me, but i was looking for revenge.
thank god it never found me, would have been the end.

walkin' the tight rope, steppin on my friends
walkin' the tight rope, was a shame and a sin.
walkin' the tight rope, between wrong and right.
walkin' the tight rope, both day and night.

lookin' back in front of me, in the mirror's grin.
through eyes of love i see, i'm really lookin at a friend
we've had all our problems, that's the way life is.
my heart goes out to others, who are there to make amends.

walkin' the tightrope
trying to make it right
walkin' the tightrope
every day and every night
walkin' the tightrope
bring it all around.
walkin' the tightrope
from the lost to found.

walkin' the tightrope
streched around the world.
walkin' the tightrope
save the boys and girls.
walkin' the tightrope
let's make it right.
walkin' the tightrope
do it, do it tonight.
walkin the tightrope.

richard tuggle’ın dedektif ve gölgesi eksenli polisiye filmi tightrope’da polis dedektifi block’un (clint eastwood) gördüğü kâbus ilginçtir ve psikanalitik bir bakış içerir. şu;

genelde kişilik araştırması niteliğindeki dedektif filmlerinde sıklıkla tekrarlanan bir unsur çıkar karşımıza: dedektif kişilik bölünmesi yaşayabilir, karşıtına (karşıtı seri katil ya da bir canidir) dönüşme riski taşır. ahlaksal ikilemlere düşebilir. suça teğet geçebilir ya da suç işler. dedektifin gölgesi/kanun adamının karşıtı, yani alter-egosu ise kaçındığı kişilik, sözüm ona araştırmasının parçası olan suçludur. block’un gördüğü kâbus, onun kaçındığı kişilikle ilintili bir duruma işaret eder. block kâbusunda, araştırdığı seri katilin yerine geçtiğini görmüştür.

dedektifler de suçlular kadar gridir. onlar bir paranın iki yüzü gibidir.

second coming albümünden bir stone roses şarkısı. albümün çoğunda olduğu gibi sözleri müziği john squire, hatta geri -çok geri- vokallerde de kendisinin sesini duymak mümkün, kulak kesilince.. perküsyon çok rahatlatıcı, daha eski roses şarkılarını anımsatıyor.

you should have been an angel
it would have suited you
my gold leafed triptych angel
she knows just what to do
in the half light of morning
in our world between the sheets
i swear i saw her angel wing
my vision was complete
and i know i'll never want
another lover my sweet
can there be more in this world
than the joy of just watching you sleep

i don't know just what to feel
won't someone tell me my love's real

are we etched in stone or
just scratched in the sand,
waiting for the waves to come and
reclaim the land
will the sun shine all sweetness and light
burn us to a cinder
our third stone satellite

i'm on a tightrope, baby, nine miles high
striding through the clouds
on my ribbon in the sky
i'm on a tightrope baby,
one thing i've found,
i don't know how to stop but it's
a long long long long way down

she's all that ever mattered and
all that ever will
my cup, it runneth over
i'll never get my fill
the boats in the harbour
slip from their chains
head for new horizons,
let's do the same

i'm on a tightrope, baby, nine miles high
striding through the clouds
on my ribbon in the sky
i'm on a tightrope baby,
one thing i've found,
i don't know how to stop but it's a
tightrope, baby, nine miles high
striding through the clouds
on my ribbon in the sky
i'm on a tightrope, baby,
one thing i've found,
i don't know how to stop but it's a
a long long long long way down
