Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smileAnd you use it only for meNobody knows it but you've got a secret smileAnd you use it only for me

Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smileAnd you use it only for meNobody knows it but you've got a secret smileAnd you use it only for me
So save me, I'm waitin'I'm needin', hear me pleadin'And soothe me, improve meI'm grievin', I'm barely believin' now, now

Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smileAnd you use it only for meNobody knows it but you've got a secret smileAnd you use it only for me
So use it and prove itRemove this whirlin' sadnessI'm losin', I'm bluesin'But you can save me from madness now, now
When you are flyin' around and around the worldAnd I'm lyin' alonelyI know there's somethin' sacred and free reservedAnd received by me only
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smileAnd you use it only for meNobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
Nobody knows it, nobody knows itNobody knows it but you've got a secretNobody knows it, nobody knows itNobody knows it but you've got a secret
Nobody knows it, nobody knows itNobody knows it but you've got a secretNobody knows it, nobody knows itNobody knows it but you've got a secret

Beirut - Postcards from Italy




Beirut, müzik ve harmoniyi iyi bilen, onunla yaşayan genç isimlerden biri...Zach Condon ve grubu dünya müziği severlerin listelerinde önemli bir koltuğa sahip. Bugün İtalya'dan bir kartpostal alınca paylaşmadan edemedim :)

Beirut, a young name who understands the music and the harmony well...Zach Condon and his band has now a special place in the world music fans' lists. I couldn't stop sharing this track today as I recieved a postcard from Italy :) Enjoy.

The times we had
Oh, when the wind would blow with rain and snow
Were not all bad
We put our feet just where they had, had to go
Never to go

The shattered soul
Following close but nearly twice as slow
In my good times
There were always golden rocks to throw
At those who admit defeat too late
Those were our times, those were our times

And I will love to see that day
That day is mine
When she will marry me outside with the willow trees
And play the songs we made
They made me so
And I would love to see that day
Her day was mine

Lana Del Rey - Video Games



Elizabeth Grant, Liz Grant ya da sahne adıyla Lana Del Roy. İlk etapta şımarık bir New-York kızı gibi görünüyor, sonra bir bakıyorsunuz, gerçekten şımarık bir New-york kızı :) Fakat şarkılarında taşıdığı melankoli ve dalgın ama huzurlu duruş, metropol insanının ruhuna iyi gidebilecek bir müziğe dönüşmüş. Ocak ayında Born to Die diye de yeni bir albümü çıkıyormuş.

Elizabeth Grant, Liz Grant or with her stage name Lana Del Roy; seems to be a spoiled New-York girl at the first glance. When you look deeper, woow she is a spoiled New-York girl! :) But the melancholia, calmness and the peacefull state in her songs have the strength to heel the souls of the metropolis people.

And there will be a new album released on the January next year. fyi.
Enjoy,

Swinging in the backyard
Pull up in your fast car
Whistling my name
Open up a beer
And you say get over here
And play a video game
I'm in his favorite sun dress
Watching me get undressed
Take that body downtown
I say you the bestest
Lean in for a big kiss
Put his favorite perfume on
Go play a video game
It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you want to do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do
Singing in the old bars
Swinging with the old stars
Living for the fame
Kissing in the blue dark
Playing pool and wild darts
Video games
He holds me in his big arms
Drunk and I am seeing stars
This is all I think of
Watching all our friends fall
In and out of Old Paul's
This is my idea of fun
Playing video games
It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you want to do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do
(Now you do)
It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you want to do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do

Ella Fitzgerald - Accentuate the positive

Accentuate the Positive by Ella Fitzgerald on Grooveshark

Efsanelerin sözlerine inanmalıyız...Ella diyor ki, positif olun. negatifi atın.

We should believe and have faith in legends' words... Ella tells us to ac-cent-tu-ate the positive, illuminate the negative. :)

Enjoy.

 Gather 'round me everybody
 Gather 'round me, while I preach some
 Feel a sermon coming on here
 The topic will be sin
 And that's what I'm agin'
 If you wanna hear my story
 Then settle back and just sit tight
 While I start reviewing
 The attitude of doing right!

 You've got to accentuate the positive
 Eliminate the negative
 Latch on to the affirmative
 Don't mess with Mister In-Between
 You've got to spread joy up to the maximum
 Bring gloom down to the minimum
 Have faith or pandemonium
 Liable to walk upon the scene
 (To illustrate his last remark
 Jonah in the whale, Noah in the ark
 What did they do
 Just when everything looked so dark)
 Man, they said we better
 Accentuate the positive
 Eliminate the negative
 Latch on to the affirmative
 Don't mess with Mister In-Between
 No, do not mess with Mister In-Between
 Do you hear me, hmm?
 (Oh, listen to me children and-a you will hear
 About the elininatin' of the negative
 And the accent on the positive)
 And gather 'round me children if you're willin'
 And sit tight while I start reviewin'
 The attitude of doin' right
 (You've gotta accentuate the positive
 Eliminate the negative
 Latch on to the affirmative
 Don't mess with Mister In-Between)
 You've got to spread joy (up to the maximum)
 Bring gloom (down) down to the minimum
 Otherwise (otherwise) pandemonium
 Liable to walk upon the scene
 To illustrate (well illustrate)
 my last remark (you got the floor)
 Jonah in the whale, Noah in the ark
 What did they say (what did they say)
 Say when everything looked so dark
 Man, they said we better
 Accentuate the positive
 Eliminate the negative
 Latch on to the affirmative
 Don't mess with Mister In-Between
 No! Don't mess with Mister In-Between

Princess Chelsea - Cigarette Duet



Yeni Zellanda'da 2010 yılında 420'den fazla çift sigara ve sigara içmeyle ilintili promlemler yüzünden ayrılmışlar.

Princess Chelsea ise bu istatistiği dramaturize etmiş, bestelemiş, görüntülemiş, kişilik sahibi bir parça haline getirmiş. The Brunettes adlı grupta yer alan Chelsea Nikkel adlı şarkıcı ve yakın arkadaşları (yine The Brunettes'ten) Jonathan Brunette, Pikachunes, Bradley Artesque and Gay Kings Queen, özellikle Walt Disney, J.S. Bach, Pinkfloyd ve Hans Zimmer etkilerini taşıdıyan Princess Chelsea adlı solo proje Princess Chelsea'yi yapmışlar. Projede ayrıca Dr Dre, Grieg, Air, Jonathan Richman, Alan Menken, Daniel Johnston, Enya, The Beach Boys, Kraftwerk, West Auckland gibi bir çok isimden etkilenerek müzik icra ediyorlarmış.
 
In 2010 more than 420 couples split up due the problems associated with cigarette smoking.

Princess Chelsea has dramatized this statistical data, composed, filmed and turned this simple data in to a characteristic track "Cigarette Duet". Princess Chelsea is not the band but a solo project; which includes the singer of New Zeeland band The Brunettes' singer Chelsea Nikkel and again other friends Jonathan Brunette (also from the Brunettes), Pikachunes, Bradley Artesque and Gay Kings Queen. This track has especially inspirations from Walt Disney, J.S. Bach, Pinkfloyd and Hans Zimmer. But they also inspired by Dr Dre, Grieg, Air, Jonathan Richman, Alan Menken, Daniel Johnston, Enya, The Beach Boys, Kraftwerk, West Auckland and do something different as their inspiration zone.

Enjoy,

It’s just a cigarette & it cannot be that bad Honey don’t you love me and you know it makes me sad?
It’s just a cigarette like you always used to do
I was different then, I don’t need them to be cool

It’s just a cigarette and it harms your pretty lungs
Well it’s only twice a week so there’s not much of a chance
It’s just a cigarette it’ll soon be only ten
Honey can’t you trust me when I want to stop I can

It’s just a cigarette and it’s just a Malboro Light
Maybe but is it worth it if we fight?
It’s just a cigarette that I got from Jamie-Lee
She’s gonna get a smack and I’m gonna give you three

It’s just a cigarette and I only did it once
it’s only twice a week so there’s not much of a chance
It’s just a cigarette and I’m sorry that I did it
Honey can’t you trust me when I want to stop I can
