Wow, Jnusch, vooral dit stukje spreekt me aan:

Hallelujah, hallelujah,
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
Hallelujah.

Ja, late reactie, ik weet het =P

Ik vind Mad World van Gary Jules ofzo een supersupermooie tekst en ook nog zinvol ook ><

Groningen (Het Gras Van Het Noorderplantsoen)

De tickets op tafel, de koffers gepakt
De taxi staat klaar in de straat
Jij staat al buiten en roept
Kom schiet op, straks zijn we net
Iets te laat, iets te laat.

En slenterend sleur ik de spullen de deur door
Gedwee loop ik achter jou aan
Jij hebt er zin in, ik zal het nooit zeggen
Maar heb eigenlijk geen zin om te gaan

Want als ik weg ben dan mis ik de straten
Vanaf de Toren tot aan Westerhaven
Ik mis de grachten, de mensen
Stadjers, studenten
Het allermooiste accent
Geen Frankrijk, laat staan Kameroen.
Doe mij maar het gras,
Het gras van het Noorderplantsoen

Het begon allemaal maanden geleden
Reisgidsen vol met hotels aan de zee
Jij vol verwachting, het kon me niet schelen
Gewoon uit beleefdheid keek ik met je mee
Met je mee

En ik weet jij mocht kiezen
Ja beloofd is beloofd
De volgende keer dan telt mijn stem voor twee
Dan hoef ik geen plaatjes van zonnige oorden
We blijven dan thuis
Nee we gaan nergens heen

Want als ik weg ben dan mis ik de straten
Vanaf de Toren tot aan Westerhaven
Ik mis de grachten, de mensen
Stadjers, studenten
Het allermooiste accent
Geen Frankrijk, laat staan Kameroen.
Doe mij maar het gras,
Het gras van het Noorderplantsoen

Hoog in het Noorden daar ligt een stad
Die altijd de sfeer van een dorp heeft gehad

Oh als ik weg ben dan mis ik de straten
Vanaf de Toren tot aan Westerhaven
Ik mis de grachten, de mensen
Stadjers, studenten
Het allermooiste accent

Oh als ik weg ben dan mis ik de straten
Vanaf de Toren tot aan Westerhaven
Ik mis de grachten, de mensen
Stadjers, studenten
Het allermooiste accent

Geen Frankrijk, laat staan Kameroen.
Doe mij maar het gras,
Het gras van het Noorderplantsoen

het mooiste liedje ooit Erick! heb hem al een jaar ofzo op mn hyves staan. (niet dat ik iets aan mn hyves verder doe hoor )

en er is 1 liedje dat mij altijd weer een beetje op kan beuren als ik ff down ben. hij is dan wel nooit uitgebracht, maar miljoenen mensen hebben hem gehoord. het is ongeveer in 1991 geschreven door B. Visscher:

But, even when the darkest clouds are in the sky,
you mustn't cry and you mustn't sigh,
spread a little happiness as you go by...

even your love has gone and no one at your bedside,
no one takes away that laughter and that golden moonlight
so keep your smile bright.

even when the darkest clouds are in the sky,
you mustn't cry and you mustn't sigh,
spread a little happiness as you go by...

[Maedhros]

down by the Sally Gardens, my love and I did meet.
She crossed the Sally Gardens with little snow-white feet.
She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree,
But I was young and foolish, and with her I did not agree.


In a field down by the river, my love and I did stand
And on my leaning shoulder, she laid her snow-white hand.
She bid me take life easy , as the grass grows on the weirs
But I was young and foolish, and now I am full of tears.

down by the Sally Gardens, my love and I did meet.
She crossed the Sally Gardens with little snow-white feet.
She bid me take life easy , as the grass grows on the weirs
But I was young and foolish, and now I am full of tears.

old lies

your life changes
and your pain softens
the lies that have hurt you
they start to dissolve
now that I have found you

Lies of sorrow
lies of regret
lies of pain
and lies of fear
they start to dissolve
now that I have found you

the old times
when you used to smile
when things were alright
and lies seemed so far away
they will turn back again
now that I have found you

lies of sorrow
lies of regret
lies of pain
and lies of fear
they start to dissolve
now that i have found you

now that I have found you, found you, found you
everything will be alright
now that I have found you

misschien dat ik hem ooit nog voor eigen compositie voor school ga gebruiken

The Voice

I hear your voice on the wind
And I hear you call out my name

"Listen, my child," you say to me
"I am the voice of your history
Be not afraid, come follow me
Answer my call, and I'll set you free"

I am the voice in the wind and the pouring rain
I am the voice of your hunger and pain
I am the voice that always is calling you
I am the voice, I will remain

I am the voice in the fields when the summer's gone
The dance of the leaves when the autumn winds blow
Ne'er do I sleep thoughout all the cold winter long
I am the force that in springtime will grow

I am the voice of the past that will always be
Filled with my sorrow and blood in my fields
I am the voice of the future, bring me your peace
Bring me your peace, and my wounds, they will heal

I am the voice in the wind and the pouring rain
I am the voice of your hunger and pain
I am the voice that always is calling you
I am the voice

I am the voice of the past that will always be
I am the voice of your hunger and pain
I am the voice of the future
I am the voice, I am the voice
I am the voice, I am the voice

Caledonia

I don't know if you can see
The changes that have come over me
In these last few days I've been afraid
That I might drift away
I've been telling old stories, singing songs
That make me think about where I've come from
That's the reason why I seem
So far away today

[Chorus:]
Let me tell you that I love you
That I think about you all the time
Caledonia, you're calling me, now I'm going home
But if I should become a stranger
Know that it would make me more than sad
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had

Now I have moved and I've kept on moving
Proved the points that I needed proving
Lost the friends that I needed losing
Found others on the way
I have kissed the fellas and left them crying
Stolen dreams, yes, there's no denying
I have traveled hard, sometimes with conscience flying
Somewhere with the wind

[Chorus]

Now I'm sitting here before the fire
The empty room, the forest choir
The flames have cooled, don't get any higher
They've withered, now they've gone
But I'm steady thinking, my way is clear
And I know what I will do tomorrow
When hands have shaken, the kisses float
Then I will disappear

[Chorus]

Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had

[Jnusch]

This House Is Not For Sale

Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
We're still livin' here, how come nobody can tell
They're takin' all the furniture, movin' our things
Come on little honey, put your head on my knee
Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
And calm down, calm down, calm down
Calm down, calm down, calm down

Do you remember when we even bought this thing?
I danced you across the wooden floor and you signed the lease
What happened in the car that night?
What happened in the car that night?
Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
And calm down, calm down, calm down
Calm down, calm down, calm down
Calm down

Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
We could grab a couple sheets, yeah, give 'em quite a scare
I remember lyin' on the bedroom floor
You were holding me, little honey, kissin' my soul
Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
And calm down, calm down, calm down
Calm down, calm down, calm down
Calm down
Calm down

Siuil  a run

Siuil, siuil, siul a run,
Siuil go sochair agus siuil go ciuin
Siuil go doras agus ealaigh lion

Siuil, siuil, siul a run,
Siuil go sochair agus siuil go ciuin
Siuil go doras agus ealaigh lion
Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan

I wish I was on yonder hill
'Tis there I'd sit and cry my fill,
And every tear would turn a mill,
I'll sell my rock, I'll sell my reel,
I'll sell my only spinning wheel,
To buy my love a sword of steel

Siuil, siuil, siul a run,
Siuil go sochair agus siuil go ciuin
Siuil go doras agus ealaigh lion
Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan

I'll dye my petticoats, I'll dye them red,
And 'round the world I'll beg my bread,
Until my parents shall wish me dead,

Siuil, siuil, siul a run,
Siuil go sochair agus siuil go ciuin
Siuil go doras agus ealaigh lion
Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan

Siuil, siuil, siul a run,
Siuil go sochair agus siuil go ciuin
Siuil go doras agus ealaigh lion

Siuil, siuil, siul a run,
Siuil go sochair agus siuil go ciuin
Siuil go doras agus ealaigh lion
Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan

[Linqy]

It's not a silly little moment
It's not the storm before the calm
This is the deep and dying breath of
this love that we've been working on
Can't seem to hold you like I want to
so I can feel you in my arms
Nobody's gonna come and save you
we pulled too many false alarms

We're going down
and you can see it too
We're going down
and you know that we're doomed
my dear
we're slow dancing in a burning room

I was the one you always dreamed of
you were the one I tried to draw
how dare you say it's nothing to me
baby, you're the only light I ever saw

I make the most of all the sadness
you'll be a bitch because you can
you try to hit me just to hurt me
so you leave me feeling dirty cause you can't understand

We're going down
and you can see it too
We're going down
and you know that we're doomed
my dear
we're slow dancing in a burning room

Go cry about it why don't you
Go cry about it why don't you
Go cry about it why don't you
my dear, we're slow dancin in a burnin room
burnin room, burnin room
don't you think we oughta know by now
don't you think we shoulda learned somehow

[Xindar]

Zoals deze?

I'm gonna make a change, for once in my life
It's gonna feel real good, gonna make a difference
Gonna make it right...

As I, turn up the collar on my favorite winter coat
This wind is blowin' my mind
I see the kids in the street, with not enough to eat
Who am I, to be blind?
Pretending not to see their needs
A summer's disregard, a broken bottle top
And a one man's soul
They follow each other on the wind ya' know
'Cause they got no where to go
That's why I want you to know

Chorus:
I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
(If you wanna make the world a better place)
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
(Take a look at yourself, and then make a change)

(Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah)

I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love
It's time that I realize
That there are some with no home, not a nickle to loan
Could it really be me, pretending that they're not alone?

A willow deeply scarred, somebody's broken heart
And a washed-out dream
(Washed out dream)
They follow the pattern of the wind, ya' see
'Cause they got no place to be
That's why I'm starting with me (Starting with me)


I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
(If you wanna make the world a better place, take a look at yourself, and then make a change)
(You gotta get it right, while you got the time, couse when you close you're heart, then you close your mind)

Make that change.

Ik kende m al ergens van. Maar ja, dit bedoelde ik. Man in the Mirror van Michael Jackson.

Panic! At the Disco - There's a Good Reason These Tables Are Numbered Honey. You Just Haven't Figured It Out Yet


Please, leave all overcoats, canes and top hats with the doorman.
From that moment you'll be out of place and underdressed.
I'm wrecking this evening already and loving every minute of it.
Ruining this banquet for the mildly inspiring and...

Please, leave all overcoats, canes and top hats with the doorman.
From that moment you'll be out of place and underdressed.
I'm wrecking this evening already and loving every minute of it.
Ruining this banquet for the mildly inspiring and...

When you're in black slacks with accentuating, off-white, pinstripes
Whoa, everything goes according to plan.

I'm the new cancer, never looked better, you can't stand it.
Because you say so under your breath.
You're reading lips "When did he get all confident?"

Haven't you heard that I'm the new cancer?
Never looked better, and you can't stand it

Next is a trip to the, the ladies room in vain, and
I bet you just can't keep up with, (keep up) with these fashionistas, and
Tonight, tonight you are, you are a whispering campaign.
I bet to them your name is "Cheap", I bet to them you look like shh...

Talk to the mirror, oh, choke back tears.
And keep telling yourself that "I'm a diva!"
Oh and the smokes in that cigarette box on the table,
they just so happen to be laced with nitroglycerin.

I'm the new cancer, never looked better, you can't stand it.
Because you say so under your breath.
You're reading lips "When did he get all confident?"

Haven't you heard that I'm the new cancer?
Never looked better, and you can't stand it

Haven't you heard that I'm the new cancer?
I've never looked better, and you can't stand it

Haven't you heard that I'm the new cancer?
I've never looked better, and you can't stand it

And I know, and I know, it just doesn't feel like a night out with no one sizing you up.
I've never been so surreptitious, so of course you'll be distracted when I spike the punch.

And I know, and I know, it just doesn't feel like a night out with no one sizing you up.
I've never been so surreptitious, so of course you'll be distracted when I spike the punch.

And I know, and I know, it just doesn't feel like a night out with no one sizing you up.
I've never been so surreptitious, so of course you'll be distracted when I spike the punch

De titel is zo mogelijk nog leuker dan het liedje

[Maedhros]

Raggle Taggle Gypsy

There were three old gypsies came to our hall door
They came brave and boldly-o
One sang high and the other sang low
And the Lady sang the raggle taggle gypsy-o

It was upstairs and downstairs the lady went
Put on her suit of leather-o
T'was a cry all around the door
She's away wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o

It was late that night when the lord came in
Enquiring for his lady-o
The servant girl replied to her lord
She's away wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o

Oh then saddle for me my milk white steed
- my big horse is not speedy-o
I will ride and I'll seek me bride
She's away wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o

Then he rode east and he rode west
He rode north and south also
But when he rode to the wide open fields
It was there that he spied his lady-o

[Maedhros]

The Island

They say the skies of Lebanon are burning
Those mighty cedars bleedin' in the heat
They're showing pictures on the television
Women and children dying in the street
And we're still at it in our own place
Still tryin' to reach the future through the past
Still tryin' to carve tomorrow from a tombstone...

But Hey! Don't listen to me! this wasn't meant to be no sad song .
We've heard too much of that before
Right now I only want to be here with you Till the morning dew comes falling And I wanna take you to the island Trace your footprints in the sand
And in the evening when the sun goes down We'll make love to the sound of the ocean

They're raising banners over by the markets
Whitewashing slogans on the shipyard walls
Witchdoctors praying for a mighty showdown No way our holy flag is gonna' fall
Up here we sacrifice our children To feed the worn-out dreams of yesterday And teach them dying will lead us into glory...

But Hey! Don't listen to me! cos this wasn't meant to be no sad song .
I've sung too much of that before
Right now I only want to be here with you Till the morning dew comes falling I wanna take you to the island And trace your footprints in the sand
And in the evening when there's no one around We'll make love to the sound of the ocean

Now I know us plain folks don't see all the story
And I know this peace and love's just copping out
And I guess these young boys dying in the ditches Is just what being free is all about
And how this twisted wreckage down on main street Will bring us all together in the end
And we'll go marching down the road to freedom... Freedom....... Freedom

[Maedhros]

ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE.

Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse.
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best...

And...always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the light side of life...

If life seems jolly rotten
There's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.
When you're feeling in the dumps
Don't be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle - that's the thing.

And...always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the light side of life...

For life is quite absurd
And death's the final word
You must always face the curtain with a bow.
Forget about your sin - give the audience a grin
Enjoy it - it's your last chance anyhow.

So always look on the bright side of death
Just before you draw your terminal breath

Life's a piece of shit
When you look at it
Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true.
You'll see it's all a show
Keep 'em laughing as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you.

And always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the right side of life...
(Come on guys, cheer up!)
Always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the bright side of life...
(Worse things happen at sea, you know.)
Always look on the bright side of life...
(I mean - what have you got to lose?)
(You know, you come from nothing - you're going back to nothing.
What have you lost? Nothing!)
Always look on the right side of life...
