That air of tender disapproval is what attracted me to the band in the first place and you can hear it in other songs of theirs, but this is always the first line to pop into my head. It's like a later Tom and Jerry when the two of them could talk; like the Stones since the eighties; like the last days of Southfork Like Planet of the Apes on TV; the second side of 'Til the Band Comes In; like an own-brand box of cornflakes he's going to let you down my friend - Bad Cover Version.
However Sainsbury's own brand cornflakes do have their merits. Maybe they've improved their recipe since the line was written. Regardless, the song's incredible.
Napoleon IIIrd And as I touch your shoulder tonight this room has become the centre of the entire universe. It summed up the first time I did, in a cold tent in Wales whilst doing the Duke of Edinburgh award. Tim Clare , poet. It was on the fifteenth floor, It had a board across the door.
It took an hour to pry it off and get inside. It smelt as if someone had died; the living-room was full of flies - Mile End. I later found out someone really had died our upstairs neighbour - hence the flies.
Still, it felt like a bit of an adventure. Mister, we just want your car, cos we're taking a girl to the reservoir - Joyriders. I love how he makes the banal sound exiting. You see you should take me seriously. Very seriously indeed. Cause I've been sleeping with your wife for the past sixteen weeks, smoking your cigarettes, drinking your brandy, messing up the bed that you chose together.
And in all that time I just wanted you to come home unexpectedly one afternoon, and catch us at it in the front room. That of the brandy swilling, cigarette smoking, gentleman who spends his weekends buying beds for his wife at DFS. What is great about Cocker as a lyricist is he allows you to project your own thoughts and fantasies onto his text. Cocker writes about society in a way we can all empathise with.
This idea is in the sleeve notes of the album: 'Please understand - we don't want no trouble. We just want the right to be different. One obvious source for information, the DJ who may have played it on the show Darius says he taped, is himself baffled. If he did, it could be sitting in his collection of 10, vinyl records, which includes the music he spun on-air. Baskerville does recall playing tapes from underground Eastern rock bands, some mailed to him from over the Berlin Wall. If [Eastern European musicians] sing in English, it can sound a bit austere and severe.
Someone else transcribed it into sheet music, seemingly for the hell of it. False leads have been rampant. Was it an early track or outtake from Joy Division or Depeche Mode? Other obscure, supposedly German or European bands — Mental Alchemy! In late August, Darius came home from work, switched on the radio and heard a report on German media about the search, followed by the song itself.
The song I was trying to identify for 35 years! And even the tape that still exists could at least theoretically could have been recorded only last week. But I am not one of those persons who only need some attention.
George of the Archive of Contemporary Music, a music library and research center in New York that was contacted by the Reddit group. At this point, glimmers of sonic hope remain. NDR has found 21 recorded shows in its archive — out of hundreds — and are now in the process of listening back to them and hunting down playlists. Exactly why so many people are investing so much time and energy into this search baffles someone like Baskerville.
Should this who-sung-it be solved, some involved are already wondering about the harsh realities that could result. What if the song was actually released on a small label in the Eighties? Where the dead man called out, for his love to flee. Where I told you to run, so we'd both be free. Wear a necklace of rope, side by side with me. It is a favorite song of the Grandma'am , the grandmother of Coriolanus Snow, and he is talented at singing it as well due to having heard her sing it many times.
This song was performed by Lucy Gray Baird at her reaping. It was the first song that Coriolanus Snow ever heard her perform.
As it was broadcast nationally throughout Panem and to the Capitol , it made her an instant sensation, catching the attention of those who would be sponsors even before the sponsorship program was conceived of. The first lines of the song were actually sung by members of the Covey within the audience in District 12; Lucy Gray Baird then picked up the song and continued it. You can't take my past. You can't take my history. You could take my pa, But his name's a mystery. Nothing you can take from me was ever worth keeping.
You can't take my charm. You can't take my humor. You can't take my wealth, ' Cause it's just a rumor. Thinking you're so fine. Thinking you can have mine. Thinking you're in control. Thinking you'll change me, maybe rearrange me. Think again, if that's your goal, ' Cause You can't take my sass. You can't take my talking. You can kiss my ass And then keep on walking. No, sir, Nothing you can take me from me is worth dirt. Take it, 'cause I'd give it free. It won't hurt. Nothing you can take from me was ever worth keeping!
The title of the song is provided in these acknowledgements. When I was a babe I fell down in the holler. When I was a girl I fell into your arms. We fell on hard times and we lost our bright color. You went to the dogs and I lived by my charms.
I danced for my dinner, spread kisses like honey. You stole and you gambled and I said you should. We sang for our suppers, we drank up our money. Then one day you left, saying I was no good. Well, all right, I'm bad, but then, you're no prize either. All right, I'm bad, but then, that's nothing new. You say you won't love me, I won't love you neither. Just let me remind you who I am to you. I am the one who knows how you were brave. And I am the one who heard what you said sleeping.
I'll take that and more when I go to my grave. It's sooner than later that I'm six feet under. It's sooner than later that you'll be alone. So who will you turn to tomorrow, I wonder? For when the bell rings, lover, you're on your own.
And I am the one who you let see you weeping. I know the soul that you struggle to save. Too bad I'm the bet that you lost in the reaping. Now what will you do when I go to my grave? This was another song performed by Lucy Gray Baird. She sang it after Dr. Volumnia Gaul loosed snake muttations into the Capitol Arena. The snakes were completely mesmerized by it and after completing it, Lucy Gray began a soft humming to keep them docile.
You're headed for heaven, The sweet old hereafter, And I've got one foot in the door. But before I can fly up, I've loose ends to tie up, Right here in The old therebefore. It is the first song that she performs upon her return to District 12 after winning the 10th Hunger Games and the first song that Coriolanus Snow hears her perform in District It has a bright and upbeat musical accompaniment.
My heart's stupid and that's not maybe. Can't blame Cupid, he's just a baby. Shoot it, boot it, execute it, Still comes a-crawling to you-hoo.
