Вот ну никак не прет от убогих слофф. Большую часть перплов поэтому забросил. Тошнит от убогих текстов. Сильнее - только от приблизительно подобранного слова в приличном тексте.

Слушал сегодня в метро по телефону свой плейлист. Он нонче разбух на несколько композиций с антологии Shocking Blue.

Слушаю Alaska Country. Риффы - хоть стену строй. Четкие, мощные, ритм божественный, мелодия четко ловится - допинг, блин. Чисто на автомате решил напрячь травмированный еще в школе слух и дослушать.

There's no better way of being alone
Down in my land, my beautiful land
A nature of God all covered with snow
A pleasure to be and good times to spend

REFRAIN:
Alaska Country - stay the way you are
Alaska Country - you never cheated me
Na-na-a-a
I wanna know that
Alaska Country

просто и со вкусом. Суровые сибирские мужики с Аляски - снеговая Мальборо Кантри, все такое.

Seven days a week
And seven lonely nights
Plenty of time to find myself again
So that I'll know what I was
Created for
To have a good life where there's no pain

REFRAIN

- и все. Кончился допинг. Никакая талантливая тумбочка, никакая венгерская цыганка с завораживающей голосиной не вернет убогости и неестественности этого наброса.

Что ж, будем слушать не претендующую на Суровую Мужественность Sally is a Good Old Girl...

А Sting? Он в перерывах меж танцульками с Офрахазой раньше довольно крутой вёрс писал.
Да вот, хотя бы...


The Wild Wild Sea


I saw it again this evening,
Black sail in a pale yellow sky
And just as before in a moment,
It was gone where the grey gulls fly

If it should happen again I shall worry
That only a strange ship could fly
And my sanity scans the horizon
In the light of a darkening sky

That night as I walked in my slumber
I walked into the sea strand
And I swam with the moon and her lover
Until I lost sight of the land

I swam till the night became morning
Black sea in the reddening sky
Found myself on the deck on a rolling ship
So far where no grey gulls fly

All around me was silence
As if mocking my frail human hopes
And a question mark hung in the canvas
For the wind that had died in the ropes

I may have slept for an hour
I may have slept for a day
For a woke in a bed of white linen
And the sky was the colour of clay

At first just a rustle of canvas
And the gentlest breath on my face
But a galloping line of white horses
Said that soon we were in for a race

The gentle sigh turned to a howling
And the grey sky she angered to black
And my anxious eyes searched the horizon
With the gathering sea at my back

Did I see the shade of a sailor
On the bridge through the wheelhouse pane
Held fast to the wheel of the rocking ship
As I squinted my eyes in the rain

For the ship had turned into the wind
Against the storm to brace
And underneath the sailor's hat
I saw my father's face

If a prayer today is spoken
Please offer it for me
When the bridge to heaven is broken
And you've lost on the wild wild sea
Lost on the wild wild sea...

Честно говоря, до сих пор путаю Стинга и Боуи. Полис помню только как настроение, Стинга не помню ва-а-ще.

А он быстро перешел в мэйнстрим.
Но гитара у него интересная.

Согласен.
Это у него Доминик Миллер, кажется, играет. Сам то он басист, в основном.
