Old Friend - Bill Medley (es Righteous Brothers)



Questa canzone è stupenda, ma non trovo il testo, per postarlo.

Se qualcuno mi aiuta magari, altrimenti cercherò di farne una stesura, perchè contiene parole bellissime

Ci provo, Hurt, ma non ho capito proprio tutto (fa schifo l'audio del mio computer):

Old Friend

Don't be cruel, teddy baer
dancing tips and long black hair
you crossed my mind today
Las Vegas Hotel, Graceland
a sweet young daughter
and a million fans
old friend, you touched my heart today.

And I listen to you in the still of the night
open to your voice and you're all right
I close my eyes and open my soul
touch the king of rock 'n roll
old friend, it's good to hear you once again.

You shook us all up, you loved us tender
caught us in a trap, we all surrendered
aha, oh yeah, loving you
don't, don't .....?
I'm falling in love with you
I happen to sit down with your records on
seven sad years are suddenly gone
I get you in young, it doesn't seem fair
would it be heal if I could have been there
old friend, my heart is crying once again.

Trapped here on
your mother is free
a lonely pain
we refused to see
old friend, you touched my heart today
old friend, I'm missing you once again
I'm missing you once again.

Hey Elvis won't cha come back soon
Nobody's rockin' in the jungle room
Come December don't know what we'll do

Everybody's wonderin' when you're comin' back
Everbody's waitin' just to hear ya sing
Hey Elvis, You're still the king

Love Me Tender - Don't Be Cruel

Everybody knows about your pink Cadilac
Everybody's wonderin' when you're comin' back
Everbody's waitin' just to hear ya sing

He Was The King - Neil Young



"He Was The King"

(Okay, we're gonna start with a... Uh...
Start with an F. Just ride in on the F.
Maybe that's a good way to start.
Or maybe the D. Whaddya think, Ben?
- Uh, the F sounds good...
- Just like a...)

The last time I saw Elvis
He was shooting at a colour TV
The phones were ringing in the pink motel
And the rest is history
He was the King

The last time I saw Elvis
He was singing a gospel song
You could tell he had the feeling
And the whole world sang along
He was the King

The last time I saw Elvis
He was up on the silver screen
Pushing a plough in a black and white movie
And everybody started to scream
Yes, he was the King

The last time I saw Elvis
It was some kind of Vegas dream
Spotlights flashed on a silver cape
And a blue-haired lady screamed
He was the King

The last time I saw Elvis
He was fronting a three-piece band
Rocking on the back of a flatbed truck
With an old guitar in his hand
He was the King

The last time I saw Elvis

The last time I saw Elvis
He was riding in a pink Cadillac
Wind was blowing through his hair
And he never did look back
He was the King

Thank you very much

The last time I saw Elvis
He was singing that gospel song
You could tell that he had the feeling
And the whole world sang along
He was the King

He was the King
He was the King

(- Elvis has left the arena
- But he was rocking while he was getting out.
- Oh, man, you blew me right outta my seat when you said,
"Thank you very much." I almost stopped playing!
- "Thank you very much." etc.)

I Remember Elvis Presley - Danny Mirror





Last night I turned the radio on for the midnight news
suddenly I thought I'd died of a broken heart
when I heard the announcer say:

The great rock singer Elvis Presley
also known as the king

just died in a hospital in Memphis
Tennessee
USA
at the age of fortytwo years.

I remember Elvis Presley
Lord
how I love to hear him sing
so I'll adore him just for ever
for he's the one and only "King".
Like he was singing "Now or never
he's just a golden memory.

Good luck charm
is not for ever
good luck songs
we need 'em ever
again
again I'll play your songs

'cause in my mind you haven't gone.

I remember Elvis Presley
Lord
how I love to hear him sing
so I'll adore him just for ever
for he's the one and only "King".
Like he was singing "Now or never
he's just a golden memory.

My dear friend I won't forget you
when I need you I can hear you
King
though I dont know where or when

there'll be a day we meet again.

Elvis Presley
I wanna thank you for all the happiness
you gave so many people all over the world
during many
many years.
Ha
I remember the disc-jockey was playing "Jailhouse Rock"
When I had my first date with a beautiful girl
and since that evening
you've been my friend
Elvis !

I remember Elvis Presley
Lord
how I love to hear him sing
so I'll adore him just for ever
for he's the one and only "King".
Like he was singing "Now or never
he's just a golden memory.
So I'll adore him just for ever
he's just a golden memory.

King Of The Mountain - Kate Bush




Could you see the aisles of women?
Could you see them screaming & weeping?
Could you see the storm rising?
Could you see the guy who was driving?
Could you climb higher and higher?
Could you climb right over the top?
Why does a multi millionaire
Fill up his home with priceless junk?
The wind is whistling
The wind is whistling
Though the house
Elvis are you out there somewhere
Looking like a happy man?
In the snow with Rosebud
And king of the mountain
Another Hollywood waitress
Is telling us she’s having your baby
And there’s a rumour that you’re on ice
And you will rise again someday
And there’s a photograph
Where you’re dancing on your grave
The wind is whistling
The wind is whistling
Through the house
Elvis are you out there somewhere
Looking like a happy man?
In the snow with Rosebud
And king of the mountain
The wind it blows
The wind it blows the door closed

Real Good Looking Boy - The Who




When I think back to the
first time in my childhood
When I saw that face
I thought right then,
'That's a real good looking boy'

I saw myself in the mirror
in profile
for the first time
I thought,
'Hey! That's a real good looking boy'

And I felt then
that I moved
With all those lucky fucks and angels
High in the theatre
In the sky

So I ran to my mother
I said,
'Mom - take a look at me
Have you ever seen a teen
Fly so high?'

That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy

She said,
'Son, well, you know,
you're an ugly boy.
You don't really look like him

In this long line
There's been some
real strange genes
You've got 'em all
You've got 'em all
With some extras thrown in'

That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy

Wise men say
Only fools, only fools rush in
But I - I can't help
Falling in love, in love with you

Now I'm here with you little darling
And you say, 'You're beautiful as you are'
And I've managed somehow to survive

You arrived in my life like a fragrance and
you help me find a little laugh
Now I Know how so-called beauty lies

God gave him a face
Then he gave me something above
God gave me a grace
Man, he gave me your sweet, sweet, sweet love

You make me feel like I'm a real good looking boy
I feel I'm a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy

Cry Like Memphis - Cindy Roberts

Home of the blues is where I live
Trapped inside these lonely walls that don’t forget
Surrounded by memories
Your goodbye haunts me like a Beal Street melody
And I’ve done everything but get down on my knees
And if my tears will set this ghost inside me free
I’m gonna cry like Memphis
I’m going three times under
I’m gonna drown my sorrows
In tears that rill like thunder
Till I can find a way
Till I can carry on
I’m gonna cry like Memphis
When they heard the King was gone
Love me Tender cuts through the dark
Coming from an open window of a passing car
And in that moment I believe
I can almost feel your body lying next to me
But one heart beating slowly brings me back around
I know you’re gone and I know I’m breaking down
And when I break down
I’m gonna cry like Memphis
I’m going three times under
I’m gonna drown my sorrows
In tears that rill like thunder
Till I can find a way
Till I can carry on
I’m gonna cry like Memphis
When they heard the King was gone
