MADONNA VS. ABBA – “GIMME,GIMME,GIMME!” VS. “HUNG UP”

madonna_hung_up_frontcoverabba-reunites1

ABBA was a Swedish glam-pop and disco group that became very popular thanks to Eurovision Contest, which they won in 1974 with their song “Waterloo”. Their name ABBA is an acronym formed from the first letters of each of the group members (Agnetha, Björn, Benny, Anni-Frid). One of their most famous song was the disco hit  Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)”, recorded and released in 1979.

 In 2005, Madonna released an electropop song called “Hung up” (the first single from her album “Confessions on a Dance Floor” and her biggest selling single to date!!!) in which she partially used a synthesizer theme from ABBA’s Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!as a tribute to that group, so important in disco music!! You can take for granted she had to pay to Agnetha, Björn, Benny and Anni-Frid, a lovely fee for that tribute!!!!!!

And now you have heard both songs, which one do you preffer???? Madonna’s song or ABBA’s?????

Hey there!

Kara’s flowers was firstly a garage/grunge  band from the Brentwood High School in L.A. Their first performance took place in Whisky a go-go the september 16th of 1995.  The band signed a contract with Reprise Records and they recorded their first CD in 1997, called The Fourth Planet. In 2001 they changed the name for Maroon, and a few months later they changed it again for Maroon 5.

Now I’m gonna show ya 2 songs of their album Songs about Jane: This love and She will be loved (maybe the most famous)

1)This love

http://www.dailymotion.com/videox2ps4w

I was so high I did not recognize
The fire burning in her eyes
The chaos that controlled my mind
Whispered goodbye and she got on a plane
But always in my heart

This love has taken its toll on me
She said Goodbye too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
I have no choice cause I won’t say goodbye anymore

I tried my best to feed her appetite
Keep her coming every night
So hard to keep her satisfied
Kept playing love like it was just a game
Pretending to feel the same
Then turn around and leave again

This love has taken its toll on me
She said Goodbye too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
I have no choice cause I won’t say goodbye anymore

I’ll fix these broken things
Repair your broken wings
And make sure everything’s alright
My pressure on your hips
Sinking my fingertips
Into every inch of you
Cause I know that’s what you want me to do

This love has taken its toll on me
She said Goodbye too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
I have no choice cause I won’t say goodbye anymore

This love has taken its toll on me
She said Goodbye too many times before
And my heart is breaking in front of me
She said Goodbye too many times before

This love has taken its toll on me
She said Goodbye too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
I have no choice cause I won’t say goodbye anymore…

2) She will be loved

 http://www.dailymotion.com/videox2ps5g

I love this song, it’s my favourite one of this band. It has a lot of meaning and the vid is so cute!

Beauty queen of only eighteen
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She always belonged to someone else

I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I’ve had you so many times but somehow
I want more

I don’t mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

And she will be loved
She will be loved

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get so insecure
It doesn’t matter anymore

It’s not always rainbows and butterflies
It’s compromise that moves us along
, yeah
My heart is full and my door’s always open
You can come anytime you want

I don’t mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

I know where you hide
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful

I don’t mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

[in the background]
Please don’t try so hard to say goodbye
Please don’t try so hard to say goodbye

Yeah
[softly]
I don’t mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Try so hard to say goodbye

Hi guys! I like this song because Western American remebers me and haas pace. It is of Lynyrd Skynyrd. Lynyrd Skynyrd it’s a Hard Rock group and it was formed in 70’s and  they do shoutern Rock.  The most famous songs of this group are Sweet Home Alabama and Free Bird and the two are very very good.

Sweet Home Alabama:

 

Big wheels Keep on turning
carry me home to see my kin
Singing songs about the South land
I miss ole ´Bamy one again, and I think it´s a sin, yeah
Well, I hear mister Young sing about her
Well, I hear old Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A southern man don´t him around anyhow

Sweet home Alabama,
where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama,
Lord, I´m coming home to you

In Birmingham they love the Gou´nor, hoo, hoo, hoo
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you, tell me truth

Sweet home Alabama,
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama,
Lord, I´m coming home to you

Now Mussel shoals has got the Swampers
And they´ve been Known to pick a song or two, yes they do
Lord, they get me off so much
They pick me up when I´m feeling blue, now how about you

Sweet home Alabama,
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama,
Lord, I´m coming home to you…

Hi, People!

I  now will explain some things about Irone&Wine this is the artistic name of  the singer Sam Bean.  San write songs, sings and compose the lyrics of  her songs.  He has many good songs  but the letter of  this songs it’s very chaotic and when  you listen this song  you can feel a romantic  sensatio but the letter of his song it’s very strange. Sam begin  to singig and composing in 2002.

 

Flightless Bird:

I was a quick wet boy, diving too deep for coins
All of your street light eyes wide on my plastic toys
Then when the cops closed the fair, I cut my long baby hair
Stole me a dog-eared map and called for you everywhere

Have I found you
Flightless bird, jealous, weeping or lost you, american mouth
Big pill looming

Now I’m a fat house cat
Nursing my sore blunt tongue
Watching the warm poison rats curl through the wide fence cracks
Pissing on magazine photos
Those fishing lures thrown in the cold
And clean blood of Christ mountain stream

Have I found you
Flightless bird, grounded, bleeding or lost you, american mouth
Big pill stuck going down…

STUDIO 54 – “IF YOU COULD READ MY MIND”

54a

Hello everyone! As some of you have asked me about the song from the film we are watching, here you have it! It’s a cover dance version of a song by Gordon Lightfoot called “If you could read my mind” that reached nº5 on the billboard chart in January 1971. Years after, a group called Stars on 54 recorded the cover version for the sountrack of the film “Studio 54” (1998).

Here I post both versions for you to compare!! Which one do you preffer???? I must confess that against my “religion” , this time  I personally preffer the dance version of the song!!!  ;-)

If you could read my mind” (STARS ON 54)

If You Could Read My Mind” (Stars On 54)


Ultra Nate’:
If you could read my mind love
What a tale my thoughts would tell
Just like an old time movie
‘Bout a ghost from a wishing well
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
With chains upon my feet
You know that ghost is me

All three:
I don’t know where we went wrong
But the feeling’s gone and I just can’t get it back

If you could read my mind, yeah

Amber:
If you could read your mind love
What a tale my thoughts would tell
Just like a paperback novel
The kind that drugstores sell
When you reach the part where the heartache comes
The hero would be you
Heroes often fail

All three:
Never thought I could feel this way
And I’ve got to say that I just don’t get it
I don’t know where we went wrong
But the feeling’s gone and I just can’t get it back

If you could read my mind

If you could
If you could
If you could read my mind (repeat)

Jocelyn:
If you could read my mind love
What a tale my thoughts would tell
Just like an old time movie
‘Bout a ghost from a wishing well

All three (w/Jocelyn):
If you could read my mind love
What a tale my thoughts would tell
Just like a paperback novel
The kind that drugstores sell

Ultra Nate’:
And when you reach the part where the heartache comes
The hero would be you
Heroes often fail

All three:
Never thought I could feel this way
And I’ve got to say that I just don’t get it
I don’t know where we went wrong
But the feeling’s gone
And I just can’t get it back

If you could
If you could
If you could read my mind

GREEN DAY and U2

Hi everyone!!

I came across this video and I think it is special because, on the one hand, two great groups are playing together and, on the other hand, the images are so meaningful and thought-provoking.

So, for those who are Green Day fans and for those, or just for me because I think I’m the only U2 fan in this blog, who like U2.

ENJOY IT. It’s great!!!
