Mentionsy

On the day I was born A guitar in my hands The earth started rumbling A thunderous command To bash and to thrash To bang my head To smash my guitar And let there be shred

Let There Be Shred to jest tytuł tego singla, którego słuchaliśmy.

Swoją ostatnią płytę The Darkness Dressed in Colored Lights wydał w 2021 roku.

Kaioly calls the buzzards, always know when the dying's near.

Is there a life worth killing for?

Did his best to walk the razor With the holy bullets that tried to save her They met with someone else's heart Another family torn apart Did his justice get served right?

Most every man would paint the desert black and white Marking the sand with pointed boots for left and right But sometimes evil don't look as ugly as the lizard's back Sometimes the wicked here don't always dress in black

It's the gift of his religion That he can mark his own division Who hits gold in the open west Falls cold with a blue-lipped soldier's wrist What a man does to win his bloody crown

No reward for indecision All your sins will be forgiven Boys, it's time to saddle up And like the spirits in your cup It's gonna burn On the way down Most every man would paint the desert black and white

Mark in the sand with pointed boots for left and right But sometimes evil don't look as ugly as the lizard's back And the wicked here don't always dress in black

Ta pierwsza nosi tytuł The Shadow.

There's a fire keeps on burning There's a weak link about to break

There's a devil barefoot creeping And I don't know which road to take Trouble gon' find me Trouble gon' find me Ain't no hiding place A sinner can't be found Trouble gon' find me Trouble gon' find me

Trouble gone fine, trouble gone fine Ain't no hiding place, a sinner can't be found Trouble gone fine, trouble gone fine Gonna bring me down and put me in the ground

Trouble gone fine Ain't no hiding place A sinner can't be found Trouble gone fine Trouble gone fine Gonna bring me down And put me in the ground

I never felt the cold wind till it came.

Maybe there's a green field, maybe there's a street.

Maybe there's another life beyond this broken dream.

Still the catch bird keeps on singing.

These dirty streets are all I've ever known.

Doświadczymy tego jeszcze dzisiaj, bo kilka fragmentów przed nami tej najnowszej płyty Seven Dials, już teraz White Gold, a później The Glass Moon.

Put some sugar in my bowl and those barrels hit the floor.

See them big ships rolling in, they got that sweet supply.

White gold, white gold, get me through the night.

Make me feel alright Keep it on the low down now Let's keep this under wraps Don't wanna give the game away Cause we know where the good things are Got myself a remedy For a thousand rainy days

All I think about is my sweet desire Don't know how I let you get the best of me A lot of people in this town got a taste for living high

All this toil and I'm in the dirt Just trying to survive I'm on the outside looking in And on the razor's edge Sometimes I feel like I can fly Standing on the ledge White gold, white gold Get me through the night

The restless cities fall inside The revelers have all gone home The cloak of night is all around us The empty streets arise among Maybe I'm a little jaded Maybe my song is out of tune

Walk a little further with me Under the glass moon

Walk a little further with me Under the glass moon Can't you see Stars in the velvet sky And the glass moon shining

Somewhere high up in the rooftops A night hawk sings a serenade Maybe they were only waiting For the evening light to fade Even if the path gets narrow And it leads nowhere but ruin

Under the glass moon Under the glass moon

Takim zaskoczeniem dla mnie, kiedy słuchałem tej płyty, było to, że są utwory, w których głównym instrumentem jest pianino, a nie gitara, ale ta gitara też wyraźnie słyszana w balladach takich jak choćby ta przed momentem The Glass Moon, są i skrzypce i bogate instrumentarium.

Down with the Tide oraz Midnight Oil.

When my luck runs out As it must When there's no one left I can trust When the reaper man Don't take bride

When the blood in my veins turns to rust, while I still have my pride.

I ain't going down I ain't going down I ain't going down With the tide

You'll find a low-down tower And a barman with a toothless smile It's a good bet I'll be there Killing time where the air is thick Getting in the spirit With the ones who don't know when to quit Burning the midnight oil Burning the midnight oil

But if you're drawn to the flame like I am Well, you'll always be a good time fool Burning the midnight oil Burning the midnight oil Till the barman makes the call We'll be burning the midnight oil I got a fond affection For the pleasures of the day

When that monkey's on you You get free any way you can I never had a worry I couldn't choke back with another shot I'm living for the moment Cause the moment is all I've got Burning the midnight oil Burning the midnight oil

I'm the mechanic when they break down.
