Οι καλυτεροι στιχοι ολων των εποχων απο τη ματια των "Noizholics"!

[The_Rover]

See the animal in his cage that you built,

Are you sure what side you're on?

Better not look him too closely in the eye,

Are you sure what side of the glass you are on?

See the safety of the life you have built,

Everything where it belongs

Feel the hollowness inside of your heart,

And it's all... right where it belongs

 

What if everything around you,

Isn't quite as it seems?

What if all the world you think you know,

Is an elaborate dream?

And if you look at your reflection,

Is it all you want it to be?

What if you could look right through the cracks,

Would you find yourself... find yourself afraid to see?

 

What if all the world's inside of your head?

Just creations of your own

Your devils and your gods all the living and the dead

And you're really all alone

You can live in this illusion,

You can choose to believe.

You keep looking but you can't find the woods,

While you're hiding in the trees

 

What if everything around you,

Isn't quite as it seems?

What if all the world you used to know,

Is an elaborate dream?

And if you look at your reflection,

Is that all you want to be?

What if you could look right through the cracks,

Would you find yourself... find yourself afraid to see?

[warlock9_0]

I never been a one to have no stedy girl,

I love the way I live, runnin' round the world

I like to fool around, love to tear 'em down

And if I leave, you love to miss me when I'm gone

'Cos I'm in love with rock 'n' roll, satisfies my soul

If that's how it has to be, I won't get mad

I got rock 'n' roll, to save me from the gold

And if that's all there is, it ain't so bad(MOTORHEAD)

 

Chaos a.d.

Disorder unleashed

Starting to burn

Starting to lynch

Silence means death

Stand on your feet

Inner fear

Your worst enemy(SEPULTURA)

 

 

 

[PaulVon]

John francis dooley

Wipe the sleep from your eyes

And embrace the light.

You have slept now

For a thousand years

Beneath starless nights.

And now its time for you

To renounce the old ways

And see a new dawn rise.

 

In former days

The masks were raised

When the god came down

From off the mountain,

And a sacrifice was made

For they knew the day of wrath

Was fast apporaching.

 

Just like yesterday, before the war

John francis dooley

The scapegoat has run

All our sins are disowned,

And now it's time for you

To take off thy mask

And cross the rubicon.

 

If you and i were one

Within the eyes of our designs

It would still not change

The fact of our leaving.

For tonight we must leave

With the first gentle breeze

For the isles of ken we are assailing

 

Just like ullyses, on an open sea.

On an oddysey of self discovery

Otep - Perfectly Flawed

 

f you do this...

if you do this...

if you do this you'll never have a chance to try again

if you do this you'll never have a chance to try...

 

it's the same sound

the same sting

the same collapse

of everything

 

it's the same slice

the same blade

the same lie

same ole vein

 

my weight, my face

my height, my race

i'm a mistake

 

my weight, my face

my height, my race

i'm such a disgrace

 

you're perfectly flawed

you're perfectly incomplete

like cracks in the glass

& faded photographs

 

you're perfectly flawed

you're perfectly incomplete

let them condemn

imperfections make you unique

 

[nothing left to lose just try again]x2

 

it's the same doubt

the same dream

it's the same sabotage

cause i'm the enemy

 

it's the same night

the same day

it's the same parasites

feedin' on the betrayed

 

my weight, my face

my height, my race

i'm a mistake

 

my weight, my face

my height, my race

i'm such a disgrace

 

you're perfectly flawed

you're perfectly incomplete

like cracks in the glass

& faded photographs

 

you're perfectly flawed

you're perfectly incomplete

a work in progress

imperfections make you unique

 

a disguise of self deception

hides my secrets perfectly

 

i'm rejecting my reflection

cause i hate the way it judges me

 

don't even do it

YOU'RE NOT EVEN YOU YET.

 

you're perfectly flawed

you're perfectly imcomplete

like cracks in the glass

& faded photographs

 

you're perfectly flawed

you're perfectly incomplete

a work in progress

imperfections make you unique

Strawberry Fields

 

(John Lennon/Paul McCartney)

 

Let me take you down, 'cos I'm going to Strawberry Fields

Nothing is real, and nothing to get hungabout

Strawberry Fields forever

 

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out, it doesn't matter much to me

Let me take you down, 'cos I'm going to Strawberry Fields

Nothing is real, and nothing to get hungabout

Strawberry Fields forever

 

No one I think is in my tree, I mean it must be high or low

That is you can't you know tune in but it's all right, that is I think it's not too bad

 

Let me take you down, 'cos I'm going to Strawberry Fields

Nothing is real, and nothing to get hungabout

Strawberry Fields forever

 

Always, no sometimes, think it's me, but you know I know when it's a dream

I think I know I mean a "Yes" but it's all wrong, that is I think I disagree

 

Let me take you down, 'cos I'm going to Strawberry Fields

Nothing is real, and nothing to get hungabout

Strawberry Fields forever

Strawberry Fields forever

Strawberry Fields forever

[bloody_sunday]

Πολύ ενδιαφέρον θέμα. Έκατσα και τα σκέφτηκα λίγο μιας και ασχολούμαι πολύ με στίχους, και αν αφήσουμε απ'έξω τα ελληνικά που γίνεται χαμός (με μελοποιημένο Ρίτσο, Σεφέρη, Ελύτη κλπ. όπως και τα υπεραγαπημένα μου Κρίνα και του Αγγελάκα) έχω το δικό μου τοπ τεν που είναι όλα στα αγγλικά εκτός από ένα.

 

Προφανώς πρέπει να γίνει και προσπάθεια διαχωρισμού των τραγουδιών με τα οποία είμαστε απλά συναισθηματικά δεμένοι από αυτά που είναι σκέτη ποίηση παρέα με νότες... οπότε μετά από σκέψη το δικό μου τοπ τεν (ιλέβεν γιατί στη θέση no.2 ισοψηφούν δυο...) με μερικά λογάκια είναι το εξής:

 

 

10: Bad Religion - Better Off Dead

http://www.lyricsfreak.com/b/bad+religion/better+off+dead_20011980.html

Ένα τραγούδι - μικρό δείγμα της ιδιοφυίας του Greg Graffin. O Θεός απευθύνεται στους ανθρώπους, λέγοντάς τους ότι αφού έχουν τόσα ανυπέρβατα υπαρξιακά αδιέξοδα, και αφού δεν τους αρέσει τίποτα πια στη ζωή τους, τους ζητά συγγνώμη που έφτιαξε έτσι τον κόσμο που τους περιβάλλει, και αφού δεν μπορούν να πάρουν πια τη ζωή τους στα χέρια τους και γκρινιάζουν συνεχώς τους συνιστά να αυτοκτονήσουν!

 

9: Cowboy Junkies - River Waltz

http://cowboyjunkies.lyrics.info/riverwaltz.html

Mια κοπέλα κάνει μια συμφωνία με έναν ποταμό που αργοπεθαίνει. Του λέει ότι θα τον κάνει πάλι δυνατό, με αντάλλαγμα μια ήσυχη ζωή με τον αγαπημένο της. Κι αν ο ποταμός την προδώσει, εκείνη θα χτίσει τη ζωή της πάλι από την αρχή χωρίς να πτοηθεί, γιατί θα έχει πάντα εκείνον στο πλάι της.

 

8: Bob Seger - Τurn the Page

http://www.lyricsfreak.com/b/bob+seger/turn+the+page_20021931.html

H ζωή από τα μάτια ενός απόκληρου...

 

7: Beatles - Yesterday

http://www.lyrics007.com/print.php?id=TlRJek16SXk

Ένα από τα πιο χιλιοτραγουδισμένα και φημισμένα κομμάτια του αιώνα που μας πέρασε. Οι πιο πολλοί νομίζουν ότι είναι μια ερωτική εξομολόγηση του McCartney, αλλά όπως έχει δηλώσει ο ίδιος είναι αφιερωμένο στη μητέρα του και στο χαμένο χθες.

 

6: Anathema - Everwake

http://everwake.org/

Μαγεία σε τέσσερις στίχους... Μεταφράστε το στα ελληνικά για να το συνειδητοποιήσετε!!

 

5: Nightwish - Dead Boy's Poem

http://www.seeklyrics.com/printer.php?lyric_id=263147

Aν ο Tuomas των Nightwish έφευγε από τη ζωή, αυτά θα ήταν τα λόγια που θα ήθελε να πει στους αγαπημένους του. Περιέχουν όλα τα συναισθήματά του που θα ήθελε να γνωρίζουν πριν τους αποχαιρετήσει για πάντα. Υπέροχο και πολύ συγκινητικό τραγούδι.

 

 

4: Jacques Brel - Amsterdam

http://www.lyrics007.com/print.php?id=TWpVek1UQXo

http://theworldimade.blogspot.com/2006/05/jacques-brel-amsterdam-ive-been.html

Zoφερό κλασσικό τραγούδι για τη μεθυσμένη δίνη της ζωής στο παλιό λιμάνι του Άμστερνταμ ανάμεσα στους άθλιους ναυτικούς και στις πόρνες... Υπάρχουν διάφορες εκδοχές και μεταφράσεις του κομματιού, εγώ έκανα μια απόδοση της πρώτης στροφής εδώ:

http://www.noiz.gr/index.php?topic=10829.msg148290#msg148290

 

3: Patti Smith - Free Money

http://www.oceanstar.com/~fi/patti/lyrics/freemony.htm

Δεν ξέρω καν πώς να περιγράψω αυτό το τραγούδι. Είναι μάλλον αδύνατο για μένα. Από τη στιγμή που το άκουσα να το τραγουδάει η Carla από τους Walkabouts στο στούντιο του Ρόδον FM 94.4 παρέα μόνο με μια ακουστική κιθάρα, χαράχτηκε για πάντα στο μυαλό μου. 

 

2: Bob Dylan - A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall & Loreena McKennitt - Skellig

http://www.bobdylan.com/songs/hardrain.html

To πιο συμβολικό τραγούδι που έχω ακούσει ποτέ.

 

http://www.lyricskeeper.com/php/printVersion.php?id=195218&artist=Loreena+McKennitt&song=Skellig

Ένας μοναχός σιγομιλάει στον αγαπημένο του μαθητή λίγο πριν ξεψυχήσει, με μια εξομολόγηση για την ζωή που αφήνει.

 

 

Τους πιο αγαπημένους μου στίχους ever θα τους γράψω κάποια στιγμή στις επόμενες μέρες (κοινώς, πολλά σορόπια πέσανε...)

[animae]

όπως και τα υπεραγαπημένα μου Κρίνα

 

Και σε είχα συμπαθήσει τόσο καιρό...κύριε διαχειριστά, κάντε του το banιο που του αξίζει  :P

 

 

Στο θέμα μας τώρα

Pain of Salvation "Beyond the Pale"

 

 

And SEX was always there from when I was only eight years - tempting me leave thirsty

Sweat, skin, a PULSE divine to balance this restless MIND - it seemed so wonderfully physical

Oh the BLOOD, the lust, the bodies that color the world: all drugs to die for! Won't you share my fire?

How can LOVE make that world a minefield of forbidden GROUND?

A map of untouchable skin and SILENCED desire?

 

And love was there in vain, PROFOUND and deep but traced with pain - too early for a child of TEN

Loving the pure and sane he sought the goddess unstained - watching them turn to flesh again

HUNGRY for both the PURITY and SIN

Life seemed to him merely like a GALLERY of how to be

And he was always much more HUMAN than he wished to be

But there is a LOGIC to his world, if they could only see

 

Wishing - Sickened - Ill - Ticking

 

SOMEONE still this hunger (it's in my blood) always growing stronger (ticking)

BUDAPEST I'm learning, Budapest you're burning me

 

This is not who I wanted to be, this is not what I wanted to see

She's so young so why don't I feel free now that she is here under me?

 

Naked - Touching - Soft - Clutching

 

And then after all it lead me here to wake up again

Seeking a love that might make me feel free in myself but then it proves to be

Something that hurts inside when we touch, so I move on, I lose my way

Astray I'm trying too much to feel unchained, to burn out this sense of feeling cold

And every day I seek my prey: someone to taste and to hold

I feel alive during the split second when they smile and meet my eyes

But I could cry 'cause I feel broken inside!

COME and DROWN with me- the UNDERTOW will sweep us away!

And you will see that I'm ADDICTED to my HONESTY

Trust! 'Cause after all my sense of TRUTH once brought me here

But I've LOST control and I don't know if I am true to my soul

I've lost CONTROL and I don't know if I am true to my soul

Losing control and I don't know if I am TRUE AT ALL

 

 

And we were always much more human than we wished to be...

And I remember when you said you've been UNDER him - I was suprised to feel such pain

And all those years of being faithful to YOU despite the hunger flowing through my veins

And I have always tried to calm things down - SWALLOW down swallow down

"It's just another small THORN in my crown"

But suddenly one day there was too much blood in my eyes, and I had to take this WALK down

REMEDY LANE of whens and whys...

 

Empty - Licking - Clean - Choking

 

SOMEONE still this hunger (possessing my mind) always growing stronger (craving)

BUDAPEST I'm learning, Budapest I'm burning me

This is not who I wanted to be, this is not what I wanted to see

She's so young so why I don't feel free now that she's under me?

In the morning she's going away in a Budapest taxi I've paid

Seeking freedom I touched the untouched - it's too much - I'm BEYOND THE PALE...

 

Prematurity is the story of both you and me, and we were always much more human than we wished to be

Prematurity is truly the story of both you and me, and we were always much more human than we wished to be

We were always much more human than we wished to be - we were always much more human than we wished to be

We will always be more human then we wish to be

 

WE WILL ALWAYS BE SO MUCH MORE HUMAN THAN WE WISH TO BE...

 

[menelaos]

Roy Harper: "Hope"

 

ίσως να το ξέρετε και από την ΚΑΤΑΠΛΗΚΤΙΚΗ διασκευή των Anathema....

 

When you look at me

From your own century

I may seem to be

Strange archeology

But when the winds blow

From this direction

You may sense me there

In your reflection

I think I feel you

But I will never know

As the swallows leave

And the children grow

 

I wanted to live forever

The same is you will too

I wanted to live forever

And everybody knew

 

When I caught you there

In tomorrows mirror

I thought felt you

Jump out of my skin

Throwing oil into

My blazing memories

Filling empty footsteps

I was standing in

 

I wanted to live forever

The same as you will too

I wanted to live forever

And everybody knew

 

As the falling rain

Of the northern jungle

Hanging droplets on the leaves

Bombards my brain

I hear you

Across the room

A sea of daffodils spring into bloom

You are the mist

The frost across my window pane

And again

 

She moves her body

And her whispers weave

And the world spins

And tells me that I'll never want to leave

 

As I think of you

From this dark century

I will always be

With generosity

That we both may share

The hope in hearing

That we're not just

Spirits disappearing
