Working Class Hero

Το 1970 ο John Lennon έγραψε το Working Class Hero, σήμερα είναι πιό επίκαιρο από ποτέ. Μόνο που δεν πρέπει να μείνουμε στις λέξεις, αλλά να δούμε πίσω απ' αυτές, μια ασπίδα προστασίας άπλωνε πάνω απ' τον άνθρωπο τότε, πόσοι όμως κατάλαβαν το πραγματικό νόημα της επανάστασης;

John Lennon

As soon as you're born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all.
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.

They hurt you at home and they hit you at school,
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules.
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.

When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
Then they expect you to pick a career,
But you really can't function you're so full of fear.
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.

Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
And you think you're so clever and classless and free,
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see.
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.

There's room at the top they are telling us still,
But first we must learn how to smile as we kill
If we want to live like the folks on the hill.
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.

A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be

με την Marianne Faithfull το 1979 από το album της Broken English

Wild is the wind

Κανονικά, η θέση του θα ήταν στο cinematic, αφού ήταν το τραγούδι των τίτλων της συνονόματής ταινίας. Όμως, έχει τόσες διαφορετικές εκτελέσεις.....

1957, Johny Mathis:

Love me, love me, love me, love me,
say you do
Let me fly away with you
For my love is like the wind,
and wild is the wind
Wild is the wind

Give me more than one caress
satisfy this hungriness
Let the wind blow through your heart
Oh wild is the wind, wild is the wind

You touch me, I hear the sound of mandolins
You kiss me
With your kiss my life begins
You're spring to me, all things to me
Don't you know you're life, itself!

Like the leaf clings to the tree,
Oh, my darling, cling to me
For we're like creatures in the wind,
and wild is the wind
Wild is the wind

Wild is my love for you
