Neil Young – My My, Hey Hey (Out Of The Blue)

J’aime cette version de My My, Hey Hey (Out Of The Blue) de Neil Young, qui vient d’un concert de Rust Never Sleeps:

My my, hey hey
Rock and roll is here to stay
It’s better to burn out
Than to fade away
My my, hey hey.

Out of the blue
and into the black
They give you this,
but you pay for that.
And once you’re gone,
you can’t come back.
When you’re out of the blue
and into the black.

The king is gone
but he’s not forgotten
This is the story
of a Johnny Rotten
It’s better to burn out
than it is to rust
The king is gone
but he’s not forgotten.

My my, hey hey
Rock and roll is here to stay
Hey hey, my my
Rock and roll can never die
There’s more to the picture
Than meets the eye.
Hey hey, my my.

Hey hey, my my
Rock and roll can never die
Hey hey, my my
Rock and roll can never die…

Je la dédie à ma mamie, qui vient de s’en aller. You may be gone but you’ll never be forgotten. Love you so much.

Asaf Avidan and the Mojos – Reckoning Song (live)

Asaf Avidan jouant “Reckoning Song” live au Festival Clandestins de Bruxelles (01/07/2010) :

Capo on 6th

Chords: Am - C - G7 - F
Verse: Fast Fingerpicking G-B-E (A between the Chords)
Chorus: Strum A than G-B-E (Listen to the Song)

Verse:
Am
No more tears, my heart is dry
C
 I don't laugh and I don't cry
G7
 I don't think about you all the time
F
 But when I do I wonder why
 
You have to go out of my door
 And leave just like you did before
 I know I said that I was sure
 But rich men can't imagine poor.

Chorus:
Am                     C
One day baby, we'll be old
                   G7
 Oh baby, we'll be old
                              F
 And think of all the stories that we could have told

Verse:
Little me and little you
 Kept doing all the things they do
 They never really think it through
 Like I can never think you're true
 
Here I go again the blame
 The guilt, the pain, the hurt, the shame
 The founding fathers of our plane
 That's stuck in heavy clouds of rain.

Chorus:
One day baby, we'll be old
 Oh baby, we'll be old
 And think of all the stories that we could have told. Code language: PHP (php)

J’adore cette chanson, je la chante quasiment tous les matins. Et aussi, j’adore la voix écorchée d’Asaf.

Port St. Willow – Soft Light Rush (ii)

Nick Principe, connu sous le nom de Port St. Willow, vient de sortir un morceau expérimental de 6 minutes intitulé “Soft Light Rush (ii)” qui mélange folk, rock et électro.

Pas mal d’instruments dans ce morceau : quelques cuivres, quelques accords de guitare, un peu de xylophone. Et pourtant, ce n’est pas surchargé, chaque instrument a la place de s’exprimer.

Une invitation mélancolique à la rêverie en somme.
