Girls rock the Casbah Part 2

Girls and Rock'n'roll is a Real Love story. In the first part, I have played four songs that express this feeling. See, there's a lot of girls in rock band but not all them are that much interesting. I mean I have choosen the only ones that really mean something to me. There's a lot of "mean" in this sentence and a lot of means that this girls have picked for rocking your world out. In this second part, the songs are more recent but I doesn't mean more lam because these girls rock the Casbah ...

With Mystery. Sorry Guys, but Dum is not Dumb

I discovered The Dum Dum Girls this year when I was hunting Music in Youtube. Thanks to Youtube's and Google's algorythme, I'm glad that I have met this girls. This is a song from their album "Only in Dreams" ( I really don't know why I'm obsessed with dreams) that talks about this feeling that we sometimes have before sleeping. She said that she needs bedroom eyes, so it's very classy. We all know, the eyes are the doors of the soul ( maybe she's a eye fetishist) , but I'm not so sure about the bedroom part. There's a lot of mystery in the lyrics but also in the way she express herself. Take a look to the video clip ! It's very weird.

With love. Yeah, you've better be opening not your heart but your ears...

They say the meaning of this song is about her relationship with God. Yes, but Who knows ? 

With control. Freedom is all about respecting your rules. 

This song is not the definition of musical talent, but it's clearly holding a precious message. 

"I had to stop myself
From saying something that
I should've never thought of you, of you..."

With great covers  that are better than the original.  

The art of representation was never as much as contagious. This is Lissie, a great singer who loves rock'n'roll and of course expressing herself. I don't know a lot about her but I think that she's got a real potential for singing and for creating Music. All covers that I have heard from her in Youtube are great. It was difficult for me to choose the "best" song or should I say the song that you guys would love to hear from her. I finally made my mind. It's mother from Danzig. "Then I saw there was a way to Hell even from the gates of Heaven". This is a blast. Enjoy. 

The best songs are told by the best storyteller. Lana Del Rey's case.

Story of my life. You are Unfixable. I Can't break Through your world. Because You live in Shades of Cool. Your Heart is Unbreakable ... 

When it comes to music , I'm never really much of "OMG I love this artist". I only like the music the artist makes. I don't have a favourite artist back then,I have a favourite song from an artist. However, when it comes to Lana Del Rey, it's a different story. 

The first song that I heard of her was "Born to Die", but at time, I didn't pay any attention at it. After hearing a lot of her songs and of course read the lyrics, I fell in love with her songs because I understood her. Deep down, I understood the Music, I understood her story. It wasn't about the song, it was about sharing and dealing with the problems in her Music, in her lyrics and in heart. And I felt that because I was a character in her story. 

Her songs are all love songs. They talk about being in love with a broken relationship, being able to still love someone who hurts you, still loving someone you know is not coming back for you. Most of them are broken heart song, but still being able to smile and reminiscence about the (dead) memories. But don't be sad because most are love song about falling and being in love again. 

Lana Del Rey is a good storyteller. Wether you like it or not, you are going to feel what she felt while hearing her songs. That's the real power of a singer. Lana is not the best singer because perfection doesn't exist. She's quite original and fun and most of all, she knows what her fans like because she clearly knows about empathie. 

Boys go crazy ! Don't say I didn't warm you

Jalousy and craziness : What a Perfect Match !

 I'll be glad when you're dead, you rascal you

I love jealous crazy boys. This song is clearly about a boy who is tripping around the city trying to forget about the man that still his girlfriend. What a sensation ! I'm not saying that it's a good situation but I got to say that girls actually love this. Why ? because we love to be protected as well as we love boys that know what they want and go fight for it.  

This is the crazy reaction that I want a boy to have while i'm arguying with him

What a monster of Energy. This song is alive and in the same time powerfull. I don't like people who can't stand up and react. Being nice, it doesn't mean not being yourself. In fact, Cochise ( The name of the song) was the most famous Apache leader to resist intrusions by whites during the 19th century. I called it crazy reaction while because it seems like chris cornell (like Cochise) is singing from the buttom of his heart for preventing people. In fact, the signer is saying basically : die if you will or save yourself. 

Boys become crazy when they don't get what they want too 

Speaking of the crazy ’90s, hysteria was once a term given to women of the Victorian age who suffered from sexual frustration because many men at the time had no concept of female pleasure. This song might be about that, or about female orgasm, or maybe Muse just liked the way it sounds, but these days hysteria is just an outdated way to call a broad “crazy.”

Girls rock the Casbah Part 1

With Very Subtil Ways

Ann Wilson wrote these angry lyrics about her record company, Mushroom Records, whom she discovered was trying to spread untrue rumors. Mushroom Records is a Barracuda.  

With Power Voice in their her own. I think I found the other Janis Joplin....  

The song "Astral Plane" is just amzing. You can not be so sure about if you don't read the lyrics. It's right here.

Take me away from this awful evil place
Far from fear, far from grace
Another world , another plane
To call my own, to call my home

Feel my blood turning cold
Lying in the dark my eyes are closed
I ask god please, It's your last chance to let me know
The sky is black, as this feeling in my soul

Let's lift from ground, from this evil sound
Take a ride with us through time
Places no on'es ever been before
Let us go through the door

With A "You can't touch me". Just Sit and listen....

This a song about women emancipation. It's a lot about provocation but I like it. If you know what you want, Girls, Go get it right now.

With Evanescence. Amy lee brings me to life 

Bring me to life is the first song that I have heard of Evanescence. It was on TV, I can also remember that it was on a Musical Channel. In that time, Musical channels wasn't corrupted by the greedy Musical Industry. When I first saw the videoclip, It was astonishing. Amy lee is so powerful and also so sensitive. This song is about girls expectations. Amy lee gives a lesson about not dreaming that a boy can mend our life. In the final scene, we can notice that Amy was actually dreaming about her savior. But her soul was dead right after this experience. For my case, I got to say that I just don't want to wake up from this type of dream. I'm fine. Let me live in my dreams and don't even try to save me because Amy Lee does. 

Train poetry

Tears for ears
Smiles in hands
Screams of my fears
and Kissing in backhand

My thoughs are caged inside my mouth
Unspoken words are still crying
Trying to find a way out to shout
and talk about their shaking

The emotion of moments never last
But my feeling are always hold
Capting these elusive moments so fast
and never asking why I felt so cold

Every emotion that comes easily
Every emotion that comes hardly
Is like a joke that is close at hands
Althought laughing was never in my plans



I don't want to know the reason
Because it keeps me from treason
There are complicated things in life
That the univers have always hide

Won't spend my time thinking
Won't spend my moments waiting
Got to take the next train
And look for another pain

And still, you can't hear
The screams of my fears
It won't rise in your ears
Until I completly dissapear

This music is for dummies
Since the world came by this path
The words sings about commodities
And embrace the lyrics of this track

A night in the Opera. Are you ready to hear some Masterpieces ?

The openning is simply grandiose

This is a song from Nightwish. It's called The poet and the pedulum. This song was inspired in a short story written by Edgar Allan Poe, called The Pit and Pendulum. This song takes me to a world that only exists in our dreams, it really takes me far, far away. Nightwish will always be one of the world's best bands in my opinion, even without their first lead singer Tarja. That's well proved. 

It's over Now. What have you done ?

Sometimes love is tragic. My second choice is a song called "What have you done" from Within Temptation.  I'm not fond of break up songs, but this one is just amazing. It's in the same very lyrical and very rough. Everytime I listen to this song I get shivers down my spine. In this live, I just love the way how the singers don't overplay their role on stage. It's okay, but I certaintly would rather to see a real battle between them. 

Just Keep calm and listen to Classic Music...

I will end up with a pink floyd song. The dream is still goes on...

 

Music is like violence when it breaks the silence

When Music is not a painkiller...

Well well well... Who said that Music is always a healing ? Truth is sometimes it really is but sometimes, it's definiltly not. Hmm... I can see that it's still doesn't make any sense for you. Let me explain this with a very significatif and non abstract example. Sometimes, when we are sad and lonely, music that we like can "cheer up" our mind. But sometimes, it turns to be on the contrary because it depends on what kind of Music it is. 

To me, listining to a Music is like listening to a person. It means that you will follow unconsciensly the rythm and the lyrics expressed by a Music that you are listening to. Mostly, Music can disctract and manipulate people's emotion.... so it's very dangerous !  But let's go back to more important stuff.

Sure, Music is always expressing something : wether it's emotions or ideas. I believe that Music was created for the purpose of expressing ourselves. In fact, Music is a way of communication, way too much different from the others because it's like a violence that breaks the Silence. Words can be also violent but Music is violence for your ears, for your heart and for your soul, wether it was Classic, Rock or Heavy Metal Music.

Since it has got a big impact on Humans, when communication between two people breakdown, it became the only way for conveying the words that wasn't spoken. So Can we call it a "Sweet violence" ? Yeah....Nevermind. Look around you, everything is Made of violence...  but sure it's not a good reason for not enjoying or liking a Music. But what could I say to convince you? Maybe enjoying the silence is not a bad idea after all .
