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 . 

Songs For Dancing In the Dark In The Pale Moonlight

Today, it's the full Moon. Tonight, I Will be dancing with the stars in the darkest skies. They say : Stars Can't Shine Without Darkness. For my case, I guess that it's gonna be the same wether I fly or I cry. There's no dark side of the Moon. Tonight they will be only the cool side of the Moon. Tonight, they will be no drama, no problems because on the top on the Moon my thoughts are so clear and I feel so real. That's what keeps me alive.

Do you wanna dance ? Here's a special song about the moon for getting in the mood. Hey Budy, You got to keep it up ....

Let's swim to the Moon.......

What what what ? You don't have to worry Baby. We Gonna Take a little ride down by the ocean side. We gonna get real close. Get real tight. Baby, We gonna drown tonight. We gonna going down  so down....

Never knew that my love is the next best thing to the Moon. You can't see it, but you sure can hear about it. 

4 Reggae Rock songs that express positive messages to yourself

The truth is We are Spirits in a Material World 

Okay, I admit it : It's not Reggae. It's a Ska rythm but it's still got a Reggae influence. But Forget about everything and enjoy the sound of your spirit that is hanging around your soul. I got to say that The Police is a very spirituel band and I just love how their spirit sound thought their songs.  Their album Reggatta De Blanc, in English "White Reggae" held the greatest Reggae Rock songs. Even, the Bed is too big without you ( a song from Reggatta De Blanc) shows that the band is really non-materialist.    

Before acting, think about  "The Time Come Due"

Soldiers of Jah Army (SOJA)  fight the injustice in The Babylong World and defend the Peace in the Time of War. It's not easy to define the music of SOJA. Although it's  rooted in reggae, they do not stop there, and the plurality of their fans reflects this musical diversity. Their music inspires and encompasses all walks of life, without prejudice, it's for everyone and about everything.

But Never forget to don't give up the Fight ! 

Get up Stand Up. I think that Everybody konw the lyrics. Yes, It's totally the most known of Bob Marley's songs. And yes, it was the first that I heard from his. Sure, there are plenty of songs of Bob Marley that express messages. For instance, "No Women no cry , Bad Boys, Redemption song...", the list is very long. Mostly talk about love and freedom. It's not that I don't share his point of view but It will be better with some changes in lyrics. I would Totally like to hear "No Man No cry or something like "Is this Hate" for raising awareness about the Hatred in our world.

If You can't always get what you want because you certaintly don't know what you want...

Top 3 best Happy songs of Lana Del Rey

Lately, I was really suprise to see that actually Lana Del Rey is in the 19th place in the musical artist category on Google Trends. So I decided to write a little something that had nothing to do with her last album that everybody talks about. 

I thought that It was a good idea to look about her best songs. But as you know, Lana isn't what we can call a typical singer. She's hot and very sensitive and also very feminine, but she can be also very depressing. Yes a lot. It seems like every song of her is deadly sad, as she describes of course her self. 

But do you know what ?  I bet that Lana Del Rey is the most happy singer of Hollywood right know. She can't and won't drop this image that she vehicles through her music because it's a part of what she had been through.  Lana Del Rey is happy and this 3 happy songs will prove it. Enjoy. 

National Anthem

Money is the reason we exist. As always, Lana Del Rey is making fun of how money can cost a life, but all this in a very cool and sweet  way...

Summer Wine

A song with Barrie-James O'Neill about love drunkenness effects ( still better than cocaine effects). In time, he was Lana Del rey's Boyfriend....

Meet Me in the Pale Moonlight 

Sometimes, Love is not that mean. It's very rare, so take your chance now...

3 killing songs that might not kill you if you listen to them

Their common point ? These are the most monstrously good songs that talks about serial killers.... 

First, I dare You To Look Straight in My Blackest Eyes

Then I Will Threw You Out In The Ice and Snow

And Told You, Never Ever Come Back No More

So Now That It's Over. Can't We Just Say Goobye ? 

After the Weerwolf, Vampire and Zombie area, here's come the Serial Killers area. Of course, Serial Killers have always existed and they are more realistic than those mythic creature. But, let's face it : it's a fact, it seems like they are on the trending topics because we are really surrended by monsters that kill people. 

Serial killers don't fascinate me, I find them abhorrent and repugnant. They are really the worst and the most despicable, and vile in the human species. In the same time, they interest me because I always wanted to understand the reasons for their actions. I always wondered why men do evil.  

I am also interested in another area in crimes committed during the Second World War, including the Nazis or more recently, the genocide of the palestinan people in Gaza by the israeli governement. These people often believed that they are entrusted with a task that justified all their crimes. Serial killers are totally fearless and they just don't FEEL anything. They can't keep themselves from wars and fights because they are sick. 

Unlike what we see in movies or read in books, they are not lame or extremely intelligent, cultured and refined, as Hannibal Lecter, the character of "Silence of the Lambs". Serial killers kill only for their own pleasure and for a few seconds of fun. It's their way of seeing the extremely selfish and inhumane world where we live. Most of them have psychological issues : they have suffered in their childhood  but they don't  know how to grow up and overcome these bad memories. 

When they "grow up", they feel the need to chase feelings and emotions. To achieve their goal, they always act cold and very logical and of course they will lie for manipulating people. In the modern world, there is another version of Serial Killers. They kill their victims in a very softly way. Serial Killer will kill every emotion inside of them so that they will remain with no personality. And Guess what ?You know what they say : love is a perfect crime...

Happiness is playing drums on this song

I Hate Everything About You Drum Cover by Meytal

Three Days Grace was one among my first rock band’s crush when I was a teenager. This band reminds me of a lot of memories, some of them are sad while others are joyful. But it doesn’t matter because their music helps me a lot to keep on digging for brand new rock and metal songs. In the same time,  Three Days Grace aren’t my favorite rock band and won’t be. There are a lot of reasons behind this but it didn’t kept me from listinning to them for two long years.  It’s like when you have your first crush :  you know that someone doesn’t fit you but you can’t stop thinking about him/her.
