Tame Impala.... All those things I ever thought would never end....

I think there now all memories since we ran the band, Watch the airplanes swaying, coming in to land, Then my world is hanging in someone else's hands, And if i've done something, you have to let me go, Think of me as someone, someone that you know, But if I don't hear something, pretty soon from now, I'll disconnect completely, see how that works out I was daring, not much had chanced it, Oh my darling, why won't you answer?, Seven A.M., midnight is over, Sun's coming up now, I guess it's over, Playing his guitar whille he's dying of cancer, Oh my fatherm why won't you answer?, Seven A.M., midnight is over, Suns coming up now....

Django Django....Waveforms, reach through my mind

And take me back there tonight, The rhythm of me, signal to me, It's never been far from sign, A long time ago, my heart was torn in two, This reason it's written in black and white, The rhythm is … machine through the smoke and the screen scream, Throw... your hands in the air tonight, Oh you wanna know why, Only … all these rivers run dry, And when i see you again, I see that it they're in your eyes, Radar, scanning my mind, Lost in the ground clouds above, The … rattle of drums, the click of my thumb, Their eyes… my mind....

Jon Spencer Blues Explosion.....Hanging out with them, That's a big jungle, Stay off late at night, Gonna get about....

That you get about, Talk but, They don't give me a fight, I ain't on and in the wheel, Turn around into bed, I said hey man, Ain't gotta know men there, Something is wrong, With my point of view, Whatever more of this, Get on me, What you gonna do?, I said it ain't no have fun, Get hold of it, Gotta look into the mirror, I don't wanna hold if I was you, That's not gonna bad baby, Ain't no bad baby, As you wait a minute, To gonna get roll on me, Something is wrong, With my point of view, Whatever more of this, Get on me, What you gonna do? Wanna sock it to me, Come on, I can't take it no more, I wanna hear the roar, They gotta feeling no bad, I said....

Bad Lieutenant....I must be losing my mind, I'm gripped by feelings that I don't understand...

It's not a part of my plan, My hopes that once were so high, Were crushed and broken in a blink of a eye, By the roadside, And I just can't let it go, This fever won't let me hang on to my pride, It will never subside, So if you see her again, Tell her that I can't wait, Undercover in the shelter, Of a strange twist of fate, And I know what I'm doing, Is incredibly wrong, That the music has ended, But the beat just goes on and on, Don't want to sound like I'm weak, Negotiations are about to begin, It's got my head in a spin, But the beat just goes on and on

Archie Bronson Outfit....Mountains shed water, islands need sea....

Take me over the river, electricity, Gold in your pockets, lose some for me, I sense them coming, electricity, Promise, promise me, return the dead, This heart burns electricity, We have a life together, we have ties to break, Our past's an island we have set to sea, Promise me, promise me, return the dead, This heart burns electricity, Mountains shed water, islands need sea, Take me over the river, electricity....

This Mortal Coil.... the air was blue, you could hold it in your hand, blue remember me, I once told you and I tried to....

Sad to realise that nothing lasts forever, Golden heart, you'll always be a child, we cried as we kissed - it was too new, we died and we lived - it was too new too strong still too much, when you were a child, unhappiness took the place of dreams, dreams are like water, colourless and dangerous, without the strength to love, way beyond fear, you could care less if you could care at all, we cried as we kissed - it was too new, we died and we lived - it was too new, too strong still too much....

Tim Booth....Waiting for the sun to round these clouds, Waiting for these clowns to fade away....

Everything seems dull in shadow, Sad in the shadow, Show me how you hold it all together, Show me how to fake it like a man, How do you survive in shadow, Live in shadow, love in shadow, At the point of, darkness here comes the light, Here comes the light, Here comes the light, Here comes this beautiful light, At the point of darkness, Here come the stars, Here come the stars, Here come those beautiful stars, Sad to see that you're still feeling bitter, After all these years I hoped it fade, Crazy is the blame of shadow, Fear in shadow, lost in shadow, At the point of darkness here comes the light, Here comes the light, Here comes the light, Here comes this beautiful light....

Pete and the Pirates....Could it be i'm alive after all this?.....

 Picking pennies off the floor with my cold cold hands, Look at me, no hands aint it cool yeah, Look at her falling out of a taxi cab, If you really want some understanding, You will find it can be quite frustrating, If you really want to understand it, You will learn it can be quite demanding, You and me trying hard to remember, How we ever started out with our sights so high, Looking down, seeing your yellow fingers, And if you don't understand then at least ask why, If you really want some understanding, You will learn it can be quite frustrating, If you really want to understand it, You will learn it can be quite demanding, Could it be i'm alive after all this?....

The Black Keys.....You're just like time.....

Except you can feel the shame, All hands on deck, now, The sea is getting rough again, You see me out your window, Even when you close the blinds, And all you ever wanted, Was someone to treat you, Nice and kind, Take a step before running, Take a breath now before you die, When you work the streets, darlin', Make sure, Your sneaker laces they get tied, I'll be your black bird darlin', Hanging on your telephone wire, Flap my wings, oh yeah, And set your heart to fly....

The Boo Radleys....And now the dust has settled I'm still left with me....

Still trying to think of what it is I'd like to be, Always looking for the easy exit out, Never stopping to wonder why, Colours faded by the raping of the land, Colours diluted by the raping of woman, We celebrate the life and history of man, How we suffer for all we've achieved, I've never met you Philip Morris but I know, You treat me like I was the son you never killed, I am your servant and yes you have raised me well, Will you put flowers on my grave, M.I.L.L.E.N.I.U.M.-I want to spend it with you, Trying to make some sense of this I can't work it out (Nobody lives here anymore), A trophy for our new captain who'll blame someone else, (We should have spent the days on so much more), They're building a monument a for a dead century....

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah .....Maniac, don’t say it in again, when I can see you.....

in the rose, I call the money or witness satnding there in hard drive, ask me if I understand what is good for me a aah, cant you se it’s a promise, trust it, some say so longhow could you, some say, you can take me but leave ma daughter alone, we can sit forever in my mind, finding no stars in the sky, we col.uld, our hunted, I miss the way you stare at me, as if I were a memory, feeling and I know, touch anymore, now the dream is , I might not, some way out of the silence, my mind is stuck, in the sky, to our hunted, never let....

The Drums.....And i've seen the world,and theres no heavan and theres no hell....

I've seen the world,and theres no heavan and theres no hell, And i believe that when we die we die, So let me love you tonight,let me love you tonight, And i believe that when we die we die, So let me love you tonight,let me love you tonight, Ooh...Oh let it begin,let it begin,let it begin, Oh let it begin,let it begin,let it begin, Oh you were a pretty thing,but your full of fear, Well not here,no never here, Oh you can love them,you can hate them,you never rome them,so you don't own them, And i've seen the world,and theres no heavan and theres no hell, I've seen the world,and theres no heavan and theres no hell, And i believe that when we die we die, So let me love you tonight,let me love you tonight, And i believe that when we die we die....

These New Puritans....Some of these trees have been growing for years.....

the leaves on the floor must be five metres deep, the paths are a labyrinth or even a trap, some tides don't turn some things never come back. Secret recordings were made in the marsh, I bore a hole in the tree just to see, Knights dance in molecules, here's Gallahad, They're rising back up, they're rising back up. Shadows dance back up, it's happening again, If you listen carefully you might hear them whisper:, "We hold all the secrets, we hold all the words; but they're, scrambled and broken so you'll never know" (And that the Thames flows beneath the grass) Can't you see them floating like black ash?Can't you feel them crawling down your back? Can't you feel them breathing down your neck? Sea breeze, sea breeze....

World Unite! Lucifer Youth Foundation.....Like children they play, I wanna feel at home, I want to feel at home

You know I cant stay, I wanna feel at home, I want to feel at home, nah at night and in the day light, come on broken boys, lets stay tight, so when the morning comes and were all dead we can live free just like my brother said, he said “don’t stay, go out and play, you cant live until your dead." But you know the freedom that my brother saw, it deep down, it in your heart, Nah the children play like my brother say and I wanna feel at home and it’s the beautiful sight at the break of day light, that makes me feel like ill find a home, so to the girls and boys calling out wolf noise, one day you’ll find a home And if the world unites, sets the mounatin alight, then outside your house will become your home, Like children lets play, i wanna feel at home, I want to feel at home....

Anna Calvi.... Cursed like a flame Cause the very last light is gone....

I feel something coming as the morning down the hall, Voices darkness is coming from my soul, Should i fear you or should i just let go? Oh, blackout, i gotta know where you're from, What are you trying to tell me i don't know, Oh, blackout, now this glow has come you're in the dark, I could be anyone, Time stand still but i feel you by my side, But even this moment is running out of time, Oh,blackout, i've gotta know where you're from, What are you trying to tell me i don't know, Oh, blackout, now this glow has come you're in the dark, I could be anyone, Oh, blackout, now this glow has come, What are you trying to tell me i don't know, Oh, blackout i won't tell where you're from cause you're in the dark, I could be anyone, don't leave, don't leave me....

DeVotchKa....I will admit I am embarrassed by your grace....

And the complete look of boredom upon your face, You want to be a million miles from this place, You want to get on with my untimely disgrace., I am alone I am in love with an idea, Sophisticated Neurological appeals, I want to negotiate some kind of a deal, I want to tear it open show you that it's real, Oh the things I will believe, Ignore the hundred lovers, You got hidden up your sleeve. The words come easily And they sound so lovely, I guess it's just as easy if you lie to me. Everybody they got all kinds of advice, They want to tell you just how you should live your life. But who exactly am I supposed to believe?Am I supposed to let you walk away from me? I know it's coming, I can feel it in my bones, This is information you already know, Even if it's only temporarily, Give the illusion tonight you belong to me, Oh the, things I will believe, Ignore the hundred lovers, You got hidden up your sleeve. The words come easily And they sound so lovely, I guess it's just as easy if you lie to me....

Peter Murphy....Thing to Remember when writing figures of speech and sound....

The Power of poetry comes from the ability to defy logic, Defy Logic Often, Use a metaphor and tell us that your lover is the sky. Tell us that your lover is the sky. When you do that, We won't believe you,We won't believe you, Because saying so makes no sense, But we'll see a meaning. We'll see a meaning, The other thing is the ability to be remembered. Love Anything. Love Anything, Wasted, I cut myself down, Cut myself down, Wasted, Now Breaking Free, Breaking Free, It's no longer me, Understand where you came from, Floating, I'm facing me down, Prostrate to the ground, Understand, Prostrate to the ground, Mystery, Rain down on my life, down on my life....

The Decemberists....See this ancient riverbed, See where all our follies are led....

Down by the water and down by the old main drag, I was just some towhead teen, Feeling around for fingers to get in between, Down by the water and down by the old main drag, The season rubs me wrong, The summer swells anon, So knock me down, tear me up, But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup, Down by the water and down by the old main drag, Sweet descend this rabble round, Pretty little patter of a seaport town, Rolling down the water and rolling down the old main drag, All dolled up in gabardine, The last flashing lee to appear nineteen, Queen of the water and queen of the old main drag, The season rubs me wrong, The summer swells anon, So knock me down, tear me up, But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup, Down by the water and down by the old main drag, The season rubs me wrong....

Gang of Four....You’ll never pay for the farm, Someone should raise the alarm....

I think you’re losing your charm, You can’t undo all the harm, You can’t regret what you get, You can’t get back what you bet, You can’t divorce from your fate, You’re lying drunk at the wake, You never wanted to live alone, But never sure what you don't know, Don’t want you to die upon your feet, You’ll always want to keep the receipt! They think you’re a winner! But you'll never pay, never pay for the farm, They think you’re a winner! Change the locks, change your life, They think you’re a winner! But you'll never pay, never pay for the farm, They think you’re a winner! Change the locks, change your life, You're never able to rest, You can’t get thoughts off your chest, I think you lost the romance, You walk around in a trance, You've got no pause to have regrets,, You stuffed your face in ignorance, You're dreaming of a war the Third Between the Shiites and the Kurds....

Art Brut....Modern art....

makes me want to rock out, So, I'm in the Tate and I'm looking at a Hockney and wow, there's something amazing about that blue, It makes me want to step outside, I want to loosen my tie, Sweet Jesus, my heart is beating faster and faster, I'm palpitating, I'm sweating, I just can't help myself, I just can't help myself, Modern art, makes me want to rock out, So, I'm in the Pompidou, That's in Paris and the French, they're far more laid back about their art galleries, There's little children running around, I see a piece by Matisse, That's my window of opportunity, I take five steps back, I put my head down and I run at it! Modern art makes me want to rock out,,,,
