music "x & y", coldplay's latest album, is officially out today, worldwide. which means the track listing's out as well....can't wait to get it (the album i mean). on another note, saw duran duran in the papers again. there was a brief mention about them among about 60 singers n bands signing up to perform for free to raise awareness on african poverty, in line with the upcoming G8 summit. organised by bob geldof (a singer himself, from my parents' time), the shows will be streamed live on the web and happens to be the sequel to Live Aid's sellout shows (under the same intentions and conditions), which was 20 years ago. 1985. no prizes for guessing whether i even existed then. haha.the article also mentioned that the old lineup of stars from Live Aid included Queen....cool. i would've liked to see them perform. but now, we've got duran duran performing in rome and sting performing in london. wonder if i'll get to watch it -- 2 july. that's one day before i'm doing something special. hehe. and if i hadn't had enough glimpses of indecency on friday, one of my email accounts now has to advertise a dating agency by enlarging a woman's photoshop-enhanced boobs. eugh...but at least it's not as sick as...enough said. i do not want to dwell on these things. back to duran duran, there's one song that i'm kinda stuck on (nope, it's not my fave, which is track 12, but it comes close), because not only does the melody sound catchy, the lyrics are pretty encouraging, too. okay, so it is more on dependence on man, than on God, but when i apply it to God i find it very uplifting indeed. and i find some bits to be especially true. enjoy (the lyrics)... WHAT HAPPENS TOMORROW by Duran Duran Child, don't you worry It's enough you'e growing up in such a hurry Brings you down, the news they sell ya To put in your mind that all mankind is a failure But nobody knows What's gonna happen tomorrow We try not to show How frightened we are If you love me, I'll protect you However I can You've got to believe It'll be alright in the end Fighting because we're so close There are times we punish those who we need the most Though we can't wait for a saviour Only got ourselves to blame for this behaviour And nobody knows What's gonna happen tomorrow We try not to show How frightened we are Would it seem lonely If you were the only star in the night? You've got to believe It'll be alright in the end You've got to believe It'll be alright again Time is a ribbon, a silent icy river (froze us all) Running deep, deep and fast Enough to get lost down in the flow Crashing around These tiny lives mean everything And nobody knows What's gonna happen tomorrow So don't let go Now we've come this far Hold my hand please Understand -- We're never alone We've got to believe It'll be alright in the end (Nobody knows) You've got to believe It'll be alright, my friend And yes we believe It'll be alright again (Nobody knows) |
