Sugar Shack - Jimmy Gilmer and the Fireballs

nanning · « **Reply #1351 on:** October 21, 2020, 05:53:07 AM »

Such a beautiful melody and lyrics. Dutch lyrics below the video.

Helga - Niemand Heeft Je Ooit Gezien (nl) (1972)
(3m01)

Niemand heeft je ooit gezien
Maar toch ben je van mij
Niemand heeft je ooit gezien
Maar toch ben je bij mij
Ik wist het allereerst van jouw bestaan
Je bent vlakbij maar ver nog hier vandaan
Niemand heeft je ooit gezien
Maar toch ben je bij mij
Hier onder mijn hart begint jouw leven
Hier onder mijn hart groeit het geluk
Jouw jonge leven en mijn geluk

Niemand heeft je ooit gezien
Nog niemand die je kent
Niemand weet of jij een jongen of een meisje bent
Al is je vader een knappe man
Hier weet hij toch het fijne nog niet van
Niemand heeft je ooit gezien
Nog niemand die je kent
Heel geduldig moet ik op je wachten
Maar ik tel de dagen met een lach
Ja ik zal wachten maar met een lach
Niemand heeft je stem gehoord
Maar ik heb je verstaan
Alles wat mij toebehoort
Dat is voor jouw bestaan
Je brengt me onrust en je brengt me vree
Maar wat je brengt daar heb ik vrede mee
Nu zing ik nog eenmaal en dan moet je slapen gaan
Lalalalalalalala
Lailalalailalalalai
Lailailailailailai
Lailailailailailalali
Lailalalalalai

That one is worth being an American hit. We have foreign languages get hits every once in awhile and with google translate we can even find out the lyrics.

The genre no one needed.

The following is an album full of surf style covers of black metal ~~covers~~ songs which works pretty well although the Leave No Cross Unturned cover is actually 8 bit.

The singular of phenomena is phenomenon. Here's perhaps where it started. Meanwhile even scientists have trouble with the word.

The instrument in the first part that sounds a bit like a dying cow is a shehnai, an Indian double read, thought to have been developed for charming snakes. A review of the album it's on includes the phrase "not for everybody"

THE OLDEST SONG IN THE WORLD

This song to the Hurrian goddess Nikkal, is the oldest piece of music for which we have both the words and the accompanying musical notes. The work was written on clay tablets around 3500 years ago, and was discovered by archaeologists in the 1950’s in the ruins of the ancient city of Ugarit.
