Bruce Springsteen – The River ('85) Lyrics 16 years ago
The harmonica intro (about 5:30 in) is one of the most haunting and beautiful sounds I've ever heard.

The Besnard Lakes – For Agent 13 Lyrics 16 years ago
Below are more correct lyrics. They're arguably less coherent than the current posted lyrics, so I can't really say if they're totally accurate. It sounds closer to what they're singing anyway.


Oh baby, don't go now
I never meant to feel that way
Oh baby, don't go now
To be so haunted by a touch
Oh baby, don't go now
I'll play it back every day

Oh baby, don't go now
Nothing is fair in love and war
Oh baby, don't go now
I'll write you a love song
Oh baby, don't go now
I'll love you whenever I'm wrong
Oh baby, don't go now
I'll play it back every day

You didn't die, don't tell them what you know
They have ways of making you tell them
You didn't die, forsaking our love

It's your life and it's your love

Denez Prigent – Gortoz A Ran (J'attends) Lyrics 16 years ago
English translation, found on the web:

I waited, waited for a long time
In the dark shadow of brown towers
In the dark shadow of brown towers
In the dark shadow of rain towers
You will see me waiting forever
You will see me waiting forever

One day it will come back
Over the lands, over the seas
Will come back the green wind
And bring with it my wounded heart

I will be pulled away by its breath
Far away by its stream, wherever it wishes
Wherever it wishes, far away from this world
Between the sea and the stars

Lisa Gerrard – Gortoz a ran - J'attends Lyrics 16 years ago
Note that the lyrics above are sung by Denez Prigent. Lisa Gerrard sings her usual style with nonsensical semantic content. :)

English translation, found on the web:

I waited, waited for a long time
In the dark shadow of brown towers
In the dark shadow of brown towers
In the dark shadow of rain towers
You will see me waiting forever
You will see me waiting forever

One day it will come back
Over the lands, over the seas
Will come back the green wind
And bring with it my wounded heart

I will be pulled away by its breath
Far away by its stream, wherever it wishes
Wherever it wishes, far away from this world
Between the sea and the stars

Bill Withers – Ain't No Sunshine Lyrics 16 years ago
Perhaps someone already fixed it, but these lyrics perfectly match the version of the song which is just over two minutes. This version is the original (from the album Just As I Am) and is found on any number of albums.

Alphaville – Sounds Like A Melody Lyrics 16 years ago
A bit late to reply perhaps, but the hour of the wolf is not necessarily a film reference. It's an expression that refers to the time each night just before dawn, usually between 3 and 5. Thusly, the sentence becomes two time different references, a play with words. A bit more lighthearted than Bergmans film.

The correct version is "oh my god, that's the funky shit". It's sampled from Root Down by Beastie Boys.
