And last song for today - the best song about the war here ever written.

Alka (Croat) did it in the form of a letter to a Bosnian friend.

I'm not able to write to you anymore
The grenade storm makes me deaf
Makes my lips mute, the hands stumbling over the words

Shall I ever be able to write to you again?
It used to be so easy
To sit with my eyes closed and imagine you by my side
Playing guitar, and sipping wine

It's used to be so easy
To confess you verses so confused and full of wonder

Shall we ever be able to live with as much dignity as we used to?
Sailing back on the nocturnal voyages and kissing the light
With all the sins and sanctities of the soul

It's so hard to think about life now
As the death is dancing and trembling above us
I think about that life from American soap operas
Or that life from socialistic burlesque of well-being and quality

To think of our love is sacriligious while the little girls are dying
Dreaming about magic and tenderness

I feel peverse because I think about love while the people leave homes with the plastic socks on their heads, carrying too-heavy bodies in their hearts.

Shall I ever be able to write to you again?
Shall we ever be able to live with as much dignity as we used to?

Hehehe. I have the Ante music video.

What is this last song called? really nice lyrics.

Don't you think Tanja Savic will be a huge success with Bosniaks? She sounds so much like Ceca, and since I know how much you all "dislike" her, Tanja would be a perfect replacement! Plus she never married a war criminal!

Tanja is pretty popular with Bosniaks, but there haven't been many Serbian singers who have really broken through.

Joksimovic has, though. When he went to Mostar for a concert, which you know is the most anti-Serb city probably in the whole of the world, the papers here were very impressed. It suddenly became taboo to joke about his pink suits and sensitive voice.

Ceca wasn't hated during the war. Bosniaks played her songs in their trenches as well. It was only for the things she said at her concert in "Sarajevo" (Lukavica) after the war that she became so unpopular.

"There's a city over these hills that needs to be burned like an oak branch, cut out like a cancer. Let them hear us!"

etc.

Landser - Sturmfurher
Every moment, like last, neither earth, nor sky don't calculate time. Left only one heart in scorched bosom. Throbing only drums again, calling us into battle.

the universal soldier- from donovan

He's five feet two and he's six feet four
He fights with missiles and with spears
He's all of 31 and he's only 17
He's been a soldier for a thousand years

He's a Catholic, a Hindu, an atheist, a Jain,
a Buddhist and a Baptist and a Jew
and he knows he shouldn't kill
and he knows he always will
kill you for me my friend and me for you

And he's fighting for Canada,
he's fighting for France,
he's fighting for the USA,
and he's fighting for the Russians
and he's fighting for Japan,
and he thinks we'll put an end to war this way

And he's fighting for Democracy
and fighting for the Reds
He says it's for the peace of all
He's the one who must decide
who's to live and who's to die
and he never sees the writing on the walls

But without him how would Hitler have
condemned him at Dachau
Without him Caesar would have stood alone
He's the one who gives his body
as a weapon to a war
and without him all this killing can't go on

He's the universal soldier and he
really is to blame
His orders come from far away no more
They come from him, and you, and me
and brothers can't you see
this is not the way we put an end to war.

Eartha Kitt, baby.

You want to take me cruising on an ocean liner to places I long to see?
Well, with my champagne taste and your beer-bottle pockets...
Don't forget to write me when you get there in rowboat,
After you've paddled across the sea - without me!

Do you see us dining on caviar and pheasant with descendants of Royalty?
Well with my champagne taste and your beer bottle pockets...
I'll be having pheasant while you're dining with the peasants,
Dunking donuts in a diner - without me!

You said you have ambition to make my dream come true
Well brother, you just keep right on wishing
And all of my dreams will come true - without you!

And if I wanted diamonds, you'd offer me breakfast at Tiffany's
A luncheon at Cartier's, you'd recommend?
Well with my champagne taste and your beer bottle pockets...
You will have to work on something better than a Zirkon
Because your diamonds are this girl's worst friend...

So if you want me to be a part of your permanant employ
Before my champage fizzles, come up with the Real McCoy!
Show me you can separate the man from the boy
And give me a life of champagne taste!

del amitri - nothing ever happens

Post office clerks put up signs saying "position closed"
And secretaries turn off typewriters and put on their coats
And Janitors padlock the gates
For security guards to patrol
And bachelors phone up their friends for a drink
While the married ones turn on a chat show
And they'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow

Gentlemen time please you know we can't serve anymore
The traffic light change to stop when there's nothing to go
And by five o'clock everything's dead
And every third car is a cab
And ignorant people sleep in their beds
Like the doped white mice in the collage lab

And nothing ever happens
Nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow

Telephone exchanges click while there's nobody there
The Martians could land in the car park and no one would care
Close circuit cameras in department stores
Shoot the same movie every day
And the stars of these films neither die or get killed
Just survive constant action replay

And nothing ever happens
Nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow

And bill boarding advertise products that nobody needs
While angry from Manchester writes to complain about
All the repeats on TV
Computer terminals report some gains
For the value of copper and tin
While American businessmen snap up Van Goghs
For the price of a hospital wing

And nothing ever happens
Nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before

And nothing ever happens
Nothing happens at all
The'll burn down the synagogues at six o'clock
And we all go along like before
And we'll all be lonley tonight and lonely tomorrow
And we'll all be lonley tonight and lonely tomorrow

So I uploaded it to RapidShare for you. I downloaded a bunch of Alpay's songs but this was the only one I kept, Sessiz Kalma.




Thanks a lot Mila.Most Turkish mp3 sites I know are closed or you have to pay for the songs now due to new Turkish Law

Alpay is one of the elite singers in Turkey.He was around for quite some time.that's how he looked in 60's

Basil-Poledouris---Anvil-of-Crom


Basil Poledouris is one of the best composers I know.He composed many soundtracks for movies such as Conan the Barbarian, The Hunt For Red October, Starship Troopers etc..

Listen to Anvil of Crom first thing in the morning, you won't need coffee to wake up
