Pinkfloyd - High Hopes

Perşembeler'den 1 Mart. Yüksek umutları olanlara gelsin. Pinkfloyd High Hopes desin.

1 March Thursday. The song is for the ones with "high hopes" as the Pinkfloyd said.

Enjoy,

Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles
Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begun
Along the long road and on down to the causeway
Do they still MEET there by the cut
There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Running before time took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
With friends surrounded
The nights of wonder
Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide
At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
We reached the dizzy heights OF that dreamed of world **** 
Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many times
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river

Danger Mouse, Daniele Luppi - Season's Trees

Grammy ödüllü amerikan yapımcı Danger Mouse'un (aslında Brian Joseph Burton da akla zarar müzikler yaptığından olsa gerek sahne adı Danger Mouse) italyan müzisyen Daniele Luppi ile beraber yazıp, yapımcılığını yaptıkları Albüm "Rome"da, Jack White ve Nora Jones seslendirmiş parçaları. Filmi olmayan bir soundtrack albüm yapalım diyen ikilinin bu kayıtlardaki ilhamı "İyi, Kötü, Çirkin" gibi İtalya'da çekilip, Amerikan vahalarında çekilmiş gibi gösterilen "spagetti western" filmlerinden geliyor. Tamamlanması 5 yıl süren ve filmi olmayan bir soundtrack olarak kaydedilen albümde tamamen vintaj ekipmanlar kullanılmış ve hatta İyi, Kötü, Çirkin soundtrackinde de yer alan Cantori Moderni korosu tekrar bir araya gelmiş. Bizim seçimimiz ise yine en akustikinden ve Nora Jones'un seslendirmiş olduğu parçalardan Season's Trees.

Grammy awarded music producer Danger Mouse (actually he is Brian Joseph Burton, but probably as he makes some dangerous music to the healty minds, he got this stage name Danger Mouse) and italian composer Danielle Luppi recorded a legendary album Rome, in which american singers Jack White and Nora Jones are starring. The inspiration of such a soundtrack album without a movie was the spagetti westerns like "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" which were filmed in Italy for the law-cost reasons, but always talked about the Wild West. The album was recorded in 5 years, with vintage equipments and the choir Cantori Moderni, which was featured also in "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" reunited for this album. My choice is again a very acoustic track from this album, starring Nora Jones as vocal; Season's Trees.

Enjoy

Every girl gets her dreams

Cast into reality
Never seemed to bother me
Only just recently

'Cause you seem to believe
That we'll never be free
Always gonna be needing
Can't we be
Like the season's trees
Changeably
Just not so easily

All in all we're the same
Jumping through hoops of flames
Sounds fun, what a dangerous game
Pretty picture trapped in frame 
But you seem to behave
Like we'll always be slaves
Never running away
Can't we be
Like the season's trees
Changeably
Just not too easily

'Cause you seem to believe
That we'll never be free
Always gonna be needing
Can't we be
Like the season's trees
Changeably
Just not so easily

Leonard Cohen - Famous Blue Raincoat

bugün de böyle, efsane Coheni afiyetle dinleyiniz.

this is it for today. enjoy the great Cohen.

It's four in the morning, the end of December
I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
New York is cold, but I like where I'm living
There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening.

I hear that you're building your little house deep in the desert
You're living for nothing now, I hope you're keeping some kind of record.

Yes, and Jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night that you planned to go clear
Did you ever go clear?

Ah, the last time we saw you you looked so much older
Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
You'd been to the station to meet every train
And you came home without Lili Marlene

And you treated my woman to a flake of your life
And when she came back she was nobody's wife.

Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth
One more thin gypsy thief
Well I see Jane's awake --

She sends her regards.
And what can I tell you my brother, my killer
What can I possibly say?
I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you
I'm glad you stood in my way.

If you ever come by here, for Jane or for me
Your enemy is sleeping, and his woman is free.

Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes
I thought it was there for good so I never tried.

And Jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night that you planned to go clear

Sincerely, L. Cohen

Bu ay yeni çıkan m-u-s-i-c adlı muhteşem albümünün en sevgili şarkısı Circus Love'a çekilen klibin video lansmanı Ghetto'da olacak. Meraklılarına, sevenlerine duyurulur.

After studying jazz composition, Elif Çağlar went to newyork and had her master degree in jazz. With her curly hair -which I am totally jealous of- she already become one of the most favorite jazz vocals. And this month she will be performing in Ghetto Istanbul for the video launching event for the track Circus Love which I love the most in her marvellous album m-u-s-i-c. to whom it may concern :) Enjoy
