Amy Winehouse Foundation

March 11th, 2012 by admin

It’s reported that it has been set up the Amy Winehouse Foundation, which will fund a scholarship at the theatre school where her voice was first nurtured.

“The scholarship would be awarded to a child who otherwise could not afford to attend, in keeping with the foundation’s aim of helping young people from disadvantaged backgrounds.” Amy’s father Mitch said.

The charity was also set up to help people suffering from substance abuse after Winehouse’s highly public, and eventually fatal battles with drink and drugs.

However the idea is great. Hope it wouuld help to talanted people who choose a hard way of musical career.

Top 10 Gitarists

November 28th, 2011 by admin

The entire list of Rolling Stone Top 10 gitarists includes:
Jimi Hendrix
Eric Clapton,
Jimmy Page,
Keith Richards,
Jeff Beck,
B.B. King,
Chuck Berry,
Eddie Van Halen,
Duane Allman
Pete Townshend

Pete Townshend of The Who writes, “I feel sad for people who have to judge Jimi Hendrix on the basis of recordings and film alone; because in the flesh he was so extraordinary…When he would walk toward the stage, nobody would really take much notice of him. But when he walked off, I saw him walk up to some of the most covetable women in the world. Hendrix would snap his fingers, and they followed him. Onstage, he was very erotic as well…There was a sense of wanting to possess him and wanting to be a part of him, to know how he did what he did because he was so powerfully affecting.”

Randy Crawford Merry go round

July 9th, 2011 by admin

As far I love Randy Crawford so much certainly I love all the songs she sings. But of course there are songs I love the most and one of them is this one.

Say I’m crazy
Cause I have to have you
Say I’m dreaming
Cause I wanna see this through
Say there’s no meaning to life
If I’m not with you
My love, my only love

Cause it’s you
Who will always be my first love
It’s you
Who first showed me who I really was
In you
My soul has found the one I’m searching for
It’s true, I adore you

Ref.:
Our love is like a merry go round
Sometimes it’s up
Lyrics www.allthelyrics.com/lyrics/randy_crawford/
Sometimes it’s down
Like the sun and the rain
Even good loves found the change
Boy you should know
Cause the love we have we shouldn’t let go

Now you can walk away
Go on without me
Or you can try to stay
And make this easy
Though it’s hard
If you really wanna be alone
It’s okay, okay

Ref.

It’s clear to see
Your heart belongs to me
I’ll always get by
With you in my life
Don’t you ever leave

I’ve Never Been To Me

May 24th, 2010 by admin

I love this song very much but have heard it in perfoming by Randy Crawford.

Charlene sang it in far 1974. Charlene was christened by her mother under the name Charlene Marilynn D’Angelo, but later she shortened to Charlene for her record label. In 1973, Charlene signed with the legendary record label Motown Records under the name “Charlene Duncan”, and released her first single “All That Love Went to Waste” in January 1974. Charlene originally recorded “I’ve Never Been to Me” in 1976, and the single reached #97 on the USA’s Hot 100 singles chart in 1977. When released again in 1982, the single reached #3 in the United States (US), and #1, by June 1982, in the United Kingdom (UK). The song has been her only Top 40 hit as of 2010.

Charlene did three versions of the song, the initial version of which was actually the second version recorded. Her original (and ultimately most popular) version includes an expanded bridge, in which the singer makes an impassioned comparison between the noncommittal “fantasy about people and places as we’d like them to be,” versus the committed real love of a family

Hey lady, you lady
cursing at your life
you’re a discontented mother
and a regimented wife
I `ve no doubt
you dream about the things you never do
but I wish someone had a talk to me like I wanna talk to you

Oh, I’ve been to Georgia and California and anywhere I could run
Took the hand of a preacher man
and we made love in the sun
But I ran out of places and friendly faces
Because I had to be free
I’ve been to paradise but I’ve never been to me…

Please lady please lady
don’t just walk away
Cause I have this need to tell you
why I’m all alone today
I can see so much of me
still living in your eyes
won’t you share a part
of a weary heart that has lived a million lives

Oh, I’ve been to Nice and the isle of Greece
when I sipped champagne on a yacht
I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo
and showed them what I’ve got
I’ve been undressed by kings
and I’ve seen some things that a woman ain’t s’pose to see
I’ve been to paradise but I’ve never been to me…

Hey, you know what paradise is?
It’s a lie
a fantasy we created about people and places
as we like them to be
but you know what truth is?
it’s that little baby you’re holding
and it’s that man you fought with this morning
the same one you are gonna make love to tonight
that’s truth that’s love

Sometimes I’ve been to crying for unborn children
that might have made me complete
but I, I took the sweet life
I never knew I’d be bitter from the sweet
I spent my life exploring
the subtle whoring
that costs too much to be free
hey lady I’ve been to paradise
but I’ve never been to me…

I’ve been to paradise but I’ve never been to me…

Autumn Leaves

September 2nd, 2009 by admin

“Autumn Leaves” is one of the most re recorded songs. Originally this charming French melody sounded in 1945, then it was introduced by Yves Montand for the film Les Portes de la Nuit, in 1946. The music of “Les feuilles mortes” (literally “The Dead Leaves”) was written by Joseph Kosma and lyrics by the french surrealist poet Jacques Prévert.

[youtube="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLlBOmDpn1s"]

Oh, je voudais tant que tu te souviennes
Des jours heureux où nous étions amis
En ce temps-là la vie était plus belle
Et le soleil plus brûlant qu’aujourd’hui.

Les feuilles mortes se ramassent à la pelle
Tu vois, je n’ai pas oublié
Les feuilles mortes se ramassent à la pelle
Les souvenirs et les regrets aussi.

Et le vent du Nord les emporte,
Dans la nuit froide de l’oubli.
Tu vois je n’ai pas oublié,
La chanson que tu me chantais…

Les feuilles mortes se ramassent à la pelle
Les souvenirs et les regrets aussi,
Mais mon amour silencieux et fidèle
Sourit toujours et remercie la vie.

Je t’aimais tant, tu étais si jolie,
Comment veux-tu que je t’oublie?
En ce temps-là la vie était plus belle
Et le soleil plus brûlant qu’aujourd’hui.

Tu étais ma plus douce amie
Mais je n’ai que faire des regrets.
Et la chanson que tu chantais,
Toujours, toujours je l’entendrai.

C’est une chanson qui nous ressemble,
Toi tu m’aimais, moi je t’aimais
Et nous vivions, tous deux ensemble,
Toi qui m’aimais, moi qui t’aimais.

Mais la vie sépare ceux qui s’aiment,
Tout doucement, sans faire de bruit
Et la mer efface sur le sable
Les pas des amants désunis.

C’est une chanson qui nous ressemble,
Toi tu m’aimais et je t’aimais
Et nous vivions tous deux ensemble,
Toi qui m’aimais, moi qui t’aimais.

Some later in 1947 the “Les feuilles mortes” was translated into the english by American songwriter Johnny Mercer. Since Roger Williams made the song a number one hit in the United States in 1955, the song is remaining in that position for ever:-)

[youtube="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Gy5GUYC3Ug"]

The falling leaves drift by my window
The falling leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sunburned hands I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I’ll hear old winter’s song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I’ll hear old winter’s song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
