Bruce Springsteen - Born to Run (Official Video)

BORN TO RUN

In the day we sweat it out on the streets

Of a runaway American dream

At night we ride through the mansions of glory

In suicide machines

Sprung from cages on Highway 9

Chrome wheeled, fuel injected, and steppin' out over the line

Oh, baby this town rips the bones from your back

It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap

We gotta get out while we're young

'Cause tramps like us, baby, we were born to run

Yes, girl, we were

Wendy, let me in, I wanna be your friend

I wanna guard your dreams and visions

Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims

And strap your hands 'cross my engines

Together we could break this trap

We'll run 'til we drop, baby, we'll never go back

Oh, will you walk with me out on the wire?

'Cause, baby, I'm just a scared and lonely rider

But I gotta know how it feels

I want to know if love is wild

Babe, I want to know if love is real

Oh, can you show me

Beyond the Palace, hemi-powered drones

Scream down the boulevard

Girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors

And the boys try to look so hard

The amusement park rises bold and stark

Kids are huddled on the beach in the mist

I wanna die with you, Wendy, on the street tonight

In an everlasting kiss

The highway's jammed with broken heroes

On a last chance power drive

Everybody's out on the run tonight

But there's no place left to hide

Together, Wendy, we can live with the sadness

I'll love you with all the madness in my soul

Oh, someday, girl, I don't know when

We're gonna get to that place

Where we really wanna go and we'll walk in the sun

But 'til then, tramps like us

Baby, we were born to run

Oh honey, tramps like us

Baby, we were born to run

Come on with me, tramps like us

Baby, we were born to run

Queen - Under Pressure (First Time Ever Live) [High Definition] in Montreal, Quebec, Canada at the Montreal Forum on November 24, 1981

UNDER PRESSURE

Pressure: pushing down on me

Pressing down on you, no man ask for

Under pressure that burns a building down

Splits a family in two

Puts people on streets

That's OK

That's the terror of knowing

What this world is about

Watching some good friends screaming

"Let me out!"

Tomorrow gets me higher

Pressure on people, people on streets

OK

Chippin' around, kick my brains 'round the floor

These are the days: it never rains but it pours

People on streets

People on streets

It's the terror of knowing

What this world is about

Watching some good friends screaming

"Let me out!"

Tomorrow gets me higher, higher

Pressure on people, people on streets (high)

Turned away from it all like a blind man

Sat on a fence, but it don't work

Keep coming up with love, but it's so slashed and torn

Why, why, why?

Love, love, love, love, love

Insanity laughs under pressure

We're breaking

Can't we give ourselves one more chance?

Why can't we give love that one more chance?

Why can't we give love, give love, give love, give love, give love, give love, give love, give love, give love?

'Cause love's such an old-fashioned word

And love dares you to care for the people on the edge of the night

And love dares you to change our way of caring about ourselves

This is our last dance

This is our last dance

This is ourselves

Under pressure

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication (Official Music Video) [HD UPGRADE]

CALIFORNICATION

Psychic spies from China try to steal your mind's elation

An' little girls from Sweden dream of silver screen quotation

And if you want these kind of dreams, it's Californication

It's the edge of the world and all of Western civilization

The sun may rise in the east at least it settled in a final location

It's understood that Hollywood sells Californication

Pay your surgeon very well to break the spell of aging

Celebrity skin, is this your chin or is that war you're waging?

Firstborn unicorn

Hardcore soft porn

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

Marry me, girl, be my fairy to the world, be my very own constellation

A teenage bride with a baby inside getting high on information

And buy me a star on the boulevard, it's Californication

Space may be the final frontier but it's made in a Hollywood basement

And Cobain, can you hear the spheres singing songs off Station to Station?

And Alderaan's not far away, it's Californication

Born and raised by those who praise control of population

Well, everybody's been there and I don't mean no vacation

First born unicorn

Hardcore soft porn

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

Destruction leads to a very rough road but it also breeds creation

And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar they're just another good vibration

And tidal waves couldn't save the world from Californication

Pay your surgeon very well to break the spell of aging

Sicker than the rest, there is no test but this is what you're craving

First born unicorn

Hardcore soft porn

Dream of Californication

David Bowie - Modern Love (Live Aid 1985) Wembley Stadium

MODERN LOVE

I know when to go out

And when to stay in

Get things done I catch a paper boy

But things don't really change

I'm standing in the wind

But I never wave bye-bye

But I try, I try

There's no sign of life

It's just the power to charm

I'm lying in the rain

But I never wave bye-bye

But I try, I try

Never gonna fall for (modern love)

Walks beside me (modern love)

Walks on by (modern love)

Gets me to the church on time (church on time)

Terrifies me (church on time)

Makes me party (church on time)

Puts my trust in god and man (God and man)

No confessions (God and man)

No religion (God and man)

Don't believe in modern love

It's not really work

It's just the power to charm

I'm still standing in the wind

But I never wave bye-bye

But I try, I try

Never gonna fall for (modern love)

Walks beside me (modern love)

Walks on by (modern love)

Gets me to the church on time (church on time)

Terrifies me (church on time)

U2 - I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For (Official Music Video)

I STILL HAVEN'T FOUND WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR

I have climbed the highest mountains

I have run through the fields

Only to be with you

Only to be with you.

I have run, I have crawled

I have scaled these city walls

These city walls

Only to be with you.

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

I have kissed honey lips

Felt the healing in her finger tips

It burned like fire

(I was) burning inside her.

I have spoke with the tongue of angels

I have held the hand of a devil

It was warm in the night

I was cold as a stone.

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

I believe in the Kingdom Come

Then all the colours will bleed into one

Bleed into one.

But yes, I'm still running.

You broke the bonds

And you loosed the chains

Carried the cross of my shame

Oh my shame, you know I believe it.

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

But I still haven't found

What I'm looking for.

Led Zeppelin - Going To California (Live at Earls Court 1975) [Official Video]

GOING TO CALIFORNIA

Spent my days with a woman unkind

Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine

Made up my mind to make a new start

Going to California with an aching in my heart

Someone told me there's a girl out there

With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair

Took my chances on a big jet plane

Never let 'em tell ya that they're all the same

Oh, the sea was red and the sky was grey

I wonder how tomorrow could ever follow today

The mountains and the canyons start to tremble and shake

The children of the sun begin to awake (watch out)

It seems that the wrath of the gods got a punch on the nose

And it's startin' to flow, I think I might be sinkin'

Throw me a line, if I reach it in time

I'll meet you up there where the path runs straight and high

To find a queen without a king

They say she plays guitar and cries and sings, la-la-la

Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn

Tryin' to find a woman who's never, never, never been born

Standin' on a hill in the mountain of dreams

Tellin' myself it's not as hard, hard, hard as it seems

Arcade Fire Presents Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains) Official Music Video

SPRAWL II (MOUNTAINS BEYOND MOUNTAINS)

They heard me singing and they told me to stop

Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock

These days, my life, I feel it has no purpose

But late at night the feelings swim to the surface

'Cause on the surface the city lights shine

They're calling at me, "Come and find your kind"

Sometimes, I wonder if the world's so small

That we can never get away from the sprawl

Living in the sprawl

Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains

And there's no end in sight

I need the darkness, someone please cut the lights

We rode our bikes to the nearest park

Sat under the swings and kissed in the dark

You shield my eyes from the police lights

We run away, but we don't know why

Black river, your city lights shine

They're screaming at us, "We don't need your kind"

Sometimes, I wonder if the world's so small

That we can never get away from the sprawl

Living in the sprawl

Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains

And there's no end in sight

I need the darkness, someone please cut the lights

They heard me singing and they told me to stop

Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock

Sometimes, I wonder if the world's so small

Can we ever get away from the sprawl?

Living in the sprawl

Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains

And there's no end in sight

I need the darkness, someone please cut the lights

I need the darkness, someone please cut the lights

REALITI

When we were young, we used to get so close to it
And you were scared and you were beautiful
I wanna peer over the edge and see in death
If we are always the same
Oh, I fear that no life will ever be like this again
Cause your love kept me alive and it made me insane (oh, yeah)

There were moments when it seemed okay (I go back alone)
Where do you go? Oh, where do you stay? (I go back alone)
There was a time when the music would play (Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh)

Oh, baby, every morning there are mountains to climb
Taking all my time
Oh, when I get up, this is what I see
Welcome to reality
Oh, baby, every morning there are mountains to climb
Taking all my time
Oh, when I get up, this is what I see
Welcome to reality

When we were young, we used to get so close to it

Where do you go? Oh, where do you stay? (I go back alone)

David Bowie - Absolute Beginners (Official Video)

 Absolute Beginners was released in 1986 and featured as the theme song to the film of the same name.

ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS

I've nothing much to offer

There's nothing much to take

I'm an absolute beginner

And I'm absolutely sane

As long as we're together

The rest can go to hell

I absolutely love you

But we're absolute beginners

With eyes completely open

But nervous all the same

If our love song

Could fly over mountains

Could laugh at the ocean

Just like the films

There's no reason

To feel all the hard times

To lay down the hard lines

It's absolutely true

Nothing much could happen

Nothing we can't shake

Oh we're absolute beginners

With nothing much at stake

As long as you're still smiling

There's nothing more I need

I absolutely love you

But we're absolute beginners

But if my love is your love

We're certain to succeed

If our love song

Could fly over mountains

Sail over heartaches

Just like the films

If there's reason

To feel all the hard times

To lay down the hard lines

It's absolutely true

Billy Joel - The River of Dreams (Official Video)

THE RIVER OF DREAMS

In the middle of the night

I go walking in my sleep

From the mountains of faith

To the river so deep

I must be looking for something

Something sacred I lost

But the river is wide

And it's too hard to cross

Even though I know the river is wide

I walk down every evening and I stand on the shore

I try to cross to the opposite side

So I can finally find out what I've been looking for

In the middle of the night

I go walking in my sleep

Through the valley of fear

To a river so deep

I've been searching for something

Taken out of my soul

Something I'd never lose

Something somebody stole

I don't know why I go walking at night

But now I'm tired and I don't want to walk anymore

I hope it doesn't take the rest of my life

Until I find what it is that I've been looking for

In the middle of the night

I go walking in my sleep

Through the jungle of doubt

To a river so deep

I know I'm searching for something

Something so undefined

That it can only be seen

By the eyes of the blind

In the middle of the night

I'm not sure about a life after this

God knows I've never been a spiritual man

Baptized by the fire, I wade into the river

That runs to the promised land

In the middle of the night

I go walking in my sleep

Through the desert of truth

To the river so deep

We all end in the ocean

We all start in the streams

We're all carried along

By the river of dreams

In the middle of the night

Yes Roundabout Live at the Rainbow Theatre, London, UK. 15 & 16 Dec 1972 ('Close to the Edge' Tour)

Roundabout

I'll be the roundabout

The words will make you out and out

I spend the day your way

Call it morning driving through the sound in and out the valley

The music dance and sing

They make the children really ring

I spend the day your way

Call it morning driving through the sound in and out the valley

In and around the lake

Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there

One mile over we'll be there and we'll see you

Ten true summers we'll be there and laughing too

Twenty four before my love you'll see I'll be there with you

I will remember you

Your silhouette will charge the view

Of distance atmosphere

Call it morning driving through the sound even in the valley

In and around the lake

Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there

One mile over we'll be there and we'll see you

Ten true summers we'll be there and laughing too

Twenty four before my love you'll see I'll be there with you

Along the drifting cloud the eagle searching down on the land

Catching the swirling wind the sailor sees the rim of the land

The eagle's dancing wings create as weather spins out of hand

Go closer hold the land feel partly no more than grains of sand

We stand to lose all time a thousand answers by in our hand

Next to your deeper fears we stand surrounded by a million years

I'll be the roundabout

The words will make you out and out

I'll be the roundabout

The words will make you out and out

In and around the lake

Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there

Twenty four before my love and I'll be there

I'll be the roundabout

The words will make you out and out

You spend the day your way

Call it morning driving thru the sound and even in the valley

In and around the lake

Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there

One mile over we'll be there and we'll see you

Ten true summers we'll be there and laughing too

Twenty four before my love you'll see I'll be there with you

Sat on the fence but it don't work

Keep comin' up with love but it's so slashed and torn

Why, why, why?

Can't we give ourselves one more chance?

Why can't we give love that one more chance?

Why can't we give love, give love, give love, give love

Give love, give love, give love, give love?

'Cause love's such an old-fashioned word

And love dares you to care for

And love dares you to change our way of

Caring about ourselves

of Montreal - Gronlandic Edit [OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO] Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer?, released January 23, 2007.

Nihilists with good imaginations

I am satisfied

Hiding in our friend's apartment

Only leaving once a day

To buy some groceries

Daylight, I'm so absent-minded

Nighttime, meeting new anxieties

So am I erasing myself?

Hope I'm not erasing myself

I guess it would be nice to give my heart to a god

But which one, which one do I choose?

All the churches filled with losers, psycho or confused

I just want to hold the divine in mind

And forget, forget, forget, forget, forget

All of the beauty's wasted

Let's fall back to earth and do something pleasant

(Say it)

We fell back to earth like gravity's bitches, bitches

Physics makes us all its bitches

I guess it would be nice to help in your escape

From patterns your parents designed

All the party people dancing for the indie star

But he's the worst faker by far in the set

I forget, forget, forget, forget, forget

All of the beauty's wasted

I guess it would be nice

Show me that things can be nice

I guess it would be nice

Show me that things can be nice

You've got my back in the city

You've got my back, 'cause I don't want to panic

You've got my back in the city

You've got my back, 'cause I don't want to panic

The Who - Won't Get Fooled Again (Live Aid 1985)

The Who performing at Live Aid in front of 72,000 people in Wembley Stadium, London on the 13th July, 1985. 

WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN

We'll be fighting in the streets

With our children at our feet

And the morals that they worship will be gone

And the men who spurred us on

Sit in judgement of all wrong

They decide and the shotgun sings the song

I'll tip my hat to the new Constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

Then I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again

A change, it had to come

We knew it all along

We were liberated from the fold, that's all

And the world looks just the same

And history ain't changed

'Cause the banners, they all flown in the last war

I'll tip my hat to the new Constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

Then I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again, no, no

I'll move myself and my family aside

If we happen to be left half-alive

I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky

For I know that the hypnotized never lie

Do you?

Yeah

There's nothing in the street

Looks any different to me

And the slogans are effaced, by-the-bye

And the parting on the left

Is now parting on the right

And the beards have all grown longer overnight

I'll tip my hat to the new Constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

Then I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again

Don't get fooled again, no, no

Yeah

Meet the new boss

Same as the old boss

Michael Jackson - Man In The Mirror (Official Video)

MAN IN THE MIRROR

I'm gonna make a change

For once in my life

It's gonna feel real good

Gonna make a difference

Gonna make it right

As I, turn up the collar on

My favorite winter coat

This wind is blowin' my mind

I see the kids in the street

With not enough to eat

Who am I, to be blind pretending not to see their needs?

A summer's disregard

A broken bottle top

And a one man's soul

They follow each other on the wind ya know

'Cause they got nowhere to go

That's why I want you to know

I'm starting with the man in the mirror

I'm asking him to change his ways

And no message could've been any clearer

If they wanna make the world a better place

Take a look at yourself and then make a change

I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love

It's time that I realize

That there are some with no home

Not a nickel to loan

Could it be really me pretending that they're not alone?

A willow deeply scarred

Somebody's broken heart

And a washed out dream (washed out dream)

They follow the pattern of the wind, ya see

'Cause they got no place to be

That's why I'm starting with me

I'm starting with the man in the mirror (oh)

I'm asking him to change his ways (oh)

And no message could've been any clearer

If you wanna make the world a better place

Take a look at yourself and then make a change

I'm starting with the man in the mirror (oh)

I'm asking him to change his ways (oh)

And no message could've been any clearer

If you wanna make the world a better place

Take a look at yourself and then make that

Change

I'm starting with the man in the mirror (oh yeah)

I'm asking him to change his ways (better change)

No message could've been any clearer

(If you wanna make the world a better place)

(Take a look at yourself and then make the change)

you can't

(Then you close your) close your, your mind

With the man in the mirror, oh yeah

I'm asking him to change his ways (better change)

No message could've been any clearer

If you wanna make the world a better place

Take a look at yourself and then make a change

gonna feel real good now

I'm gonna make a change

It's gonna feel real good

Come on (change)

Just lift yourself

You know

You've got to stop it

Yourself (yeah)

I've got to make that change today

(Man in the mirror) you got to

You got to not let yourself brother

(Yeah) you know

(Make that change) I've got to get that man, that man

You've got to

You've got to move

Come on

Come on

You got to

Stand up, stand up (yeah, make that change)

Stand up

Stand up and lift

Yourself, now

(Man in the mirror)

Gonna make that change come on

(Man in the mirror)

You know it

You know it

You know it

You know

Change

Make that change

Talking Heads "Life During Wartime" LIVE Los Angeles, December 1983 - Stop Making Sense Movie

life during wartime

Heard of a van that's loaded with weapons

Packed up and ready to go

Heard of some gravesites, out by the highway

A place where nobody knows

The sound of gunfire, off in the distance

I'm getting used to it now

Lived in a brownstone, lived in a ghetto

I've lived all over this town

This ain't no party, this ain't no disco

This ain't no fooling around

No time for dancing, or lovey-dovey

I ain't got time for that now

Transmit the message to the receiver

Hope for an answer someday

I got three passports, a couple of visas

You don't even know my real name

High on a hillside, the trucks are loading

Everything's ready to roll

I sleep in the daytime, I work in the nighttime

I might not ever get home

This ain't no party, this ain't no disco

This ain't no fooling around

This ain't no Mudd Club, or CBGB

I ain't got time for that now

Heard about Houston? Heard about Detroit?

Heard about Pittsburgh, PA?

You oughta know not to stand by the window

Somebody see you up there

I got some groceries, some peanut butter

To last a couple of days

But I ain't got no speakers, ain't got no headphones

Ain't got no records to play

Why stay in college? Why go to night school?

Gonna be different this time

Can't write a letter, can't send no postcard

I ain't got time for that now

Trouble in transit, got through the roadblock

We blended in with the crowd

We got computers, we're tapping phone lines

I know that that ain't allowed

We dress like students, we dress like housewives

Or in a suit and a tie

I changed my hairstyle, so many times now

I don't know what I look like

You make me shiver, I feel so tender

We make a pretty good team

Don't get exhausted, I'll do some driving

You ought to get you some sleep

Burned all my notebooks, what good are notebooks?

They won't help me survive

My chest is aching, burns like a furnace

The burning keeps me alive

Roxy Music - Mother Of Pearl (1974) Live Musikladen West Germany

mother of pearl

Well i've been up all night again

Party time wasting is too much fun

Then I step back thinking

Of lifes inner meaning

And my latest fling

Its the same old story

All love and glory

Its a pantomime

If youre looking for love

In a looking glass world

Its pretty hard to find

Oh mother of pearl

I wouldnt trade you

For another girl

Divine intervention

Always my intention

So I take my time

Ive been looking for something

Ive always wanted

But was never mine

But now Ive seen that something

Just out of reach glowing

Very holy grail

Oh mother of pearl

Lustrous lady

Of a sacred world

Thus even zarathustra

Another time loser

Could believe in you

With every goddess a let down

Every idol a bring down

It gets you down

But the search for perfection

Your own predilection

Goes on and on and on and on

Canadian club love

A place in the country

Everyones ideal

But you are my favorita

And a place in your heart dear

Makes me feel more real

Oh mother of pearl

I wouldnt change you

For the whole world

You're highbrow holy

With lots of soul

Melancholy shimmering

Serpentine sleekness

Was always my weakness

Like a simple tune

But no dilettante

Filigree fancy

Beats the plastic you

Career girl cover

Exposed and another

Slips right into view

Oh looking for love

In a looking glass world

Is pretty hard for you

Few throwaway kisses

The boomerang misses

Spin round and round

Fall on featherbed quilted

Faced with silk

Softly stuffed eider down

Take refuge in pleasure

Just give me your future

Well forget your past

Oh mother of pearl

Submarine lover

In a shrinking world

Oh lonely dreamer

Your choker provokes

A picture cameo

Oh mother of pearl

So so semi-precious

In your detached world

Oh mother of pearl

I wouldnt trade you

For another girl
