Ich Bin der Brennende Komet [Hildesheim 1998]

Lacrimosa

Umringt, nicht halb so schön,
Wie der Mensch auf der Kugel
Am äußersten befestigt
So will ich ruhen, will meine Augen schließen
Und nicht mehr ausgeliefert sein
Wenn ich träume,
Schweigend will ich warten,
Hab' alles dies schon jetzt erwähnt
Dämon des Hasses schon erweckt
Durch meine Stimme, meine Worte
Und so lange ich verharre
So lange steht die Erde still
Der Dunkelheit machtlos ergeben
So lange schweigt mein Universum
Ich bin der brennende Komet
Der auf die Erde stößt
Der sich blutend seine Opfer sucht
Ich bin der lachende Prophet
Der eine Maske trägt
Und dahinter seine Tränen zählt
Wenn müde Zungen sich verknoten
Und die Dummheit wieder zirkuliert
Siegt in jedem schwachen Herz die Intoleranz
Ein Angriff als Verteidigung
Und die Schlacht beginnt
Ich, Mensch, betrete diese Erde
Eine Kugel
Auf dieser steht ein jeder auf der Spitze
Vereinigung heißt gleiches Recht für Gleiche
Sie ist kein Band zwischen Wort und Tat
Kein fremdes Herz hab' ich mehr berührt
Kein fremdes Lächeln hab' ich mir erhofft
Und zuletzt bleibt nur die Frage:
Neubeginn?
Ich bin der brennende Komet
Der auf die Erde stößt
Der sich blutend seine Opfer sucht
Ich bin der lachende Prophet
Der eine Maske trägt
Und dahinter seine Tränen zählt
Ich bin der brennende Komet
Ich bin der stumme Laut
Ich bin die Träne und das lachende Gesicht

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
