Klaus Nomi - The cold song (live)



What Power art thou, who from below
Hast made me rise unwillingly and slow
From beds of everlasting snow?

See'st thou not how stiff and wondrous old
Far unfit to bear the bitter cold,
I can scarcely move or draw my breath?
Let me, let me, let me freeze again to death

La reprise - Ukulele Orchestra of GB - Wuthering Height


Et la reprise est mieux que l'original ....

Kate Bush - Wuthering Height


Kitchissime ....

Out on the wiley, windy moors
We'd roll and fall in green.
You had a temper like my jealousy:
Too hot, too greedy.
How could you leave me,
When I needed to possess you?
I hated you. I loved you, too.

Bad dreams in the night.
They told me I was going to lose the fight,
Leave behind my wuthering, wuthering
Wuthering Heights.

Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
Come home. I'm so cold!
Let me in-a-your window.

Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
Come home. I'm so cold!
Let me in-a-your window.

Vampire Weekend - Mansard Roof


I see a mansard roof through the trees
I see a salty message written in the eaves
The ground beneath my feet
The hot garbage and concrete
And now the tops of buildings, I can see them too

The Argentines collapse in defeat
The admiralty surveys the remnants of the fleet
The ground beneath their feet
Is a nautically-mapped sheet
As thin as paper
While it slips away from view

Oasis - Falling down


We live a dying dream 
If you know what I mean 
All that I've ever known 
It's all that I've ever known

La reprise - The Ukulele Orchestra of GB - Shaft

Isaac Hayes - Shaft



Who's the black private dick 
That's a sex machine to all the chicks? 
SHAFT! 
Ya damn right! 

Who is the man that would risk his neck 
For his brother man? 
SHAFT! 
Can you dig it? 

Who's the cat that won't cop out 
When there's danger all about? 
SHAFT! 
Right On! 

They say this cat Shaft is a bad mother
SHUT YOUR MOUTH! 
I'm talkin' 'bout Shaft. 
THEN WE CAN DIG IT! 

He's a complicated man 
But no one understands him but his woman
JOHN SHAFT!

La reprise - The Ukulele Orchestra of GB - Life on mars ?

David Bowie - Life on mars ?



It's a god-awful small affair
To the girl with the mousy hair
But her mummy is yelling "No"
And her daddy has told her to go
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now she walks
through her sunken dream
To the seat with the clearest view
And she's hooked to the silver screen
But the film is a saddening bore
For she's lived it
ten times or more
She could spit in the eyes of fools
As they ask her to focus on

Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh man!
Look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show

Berry - Mademoiselle


"Mademoiselle j'ai mes raisons
Une foule de questions, un prénom
Le filtre d'une Winston qui colle aux lèvres
Comme un homme..."

Rwan - Le métro
