Δεν έκανα ταξίδια μακρινά τα χρόνια μου είχαν ρίζες ήταν δέντρα που τα 'ντυσε με φύλλα η καρδιά και τ' άφησε ν' ανθίζουν μες την πέτρα
Δεν έκανα ταξίδια μακρινά οι άνθρωποι που αγάπησα ήταν δάση οι φίλοι μου φεγγάρια ήταν νησιά που δίψασε η καρδιά μου να τα ψάξει
Το πιο μακρύ ταξίδι μου εσύ η νύχτα εσύ το όνειρο της μέρας μικρή πατρίδα σώμα μου κι αρχή η γη μου εσύ ανάσα μου κι αέρας
Δεν έκανα ταξίδια μακρινά ταξίδεψε η καρδιά κι αυτό μου φτάνει σε όνειρα σ' αισθήματα υγρά το μυστικό τον κόσμο ν' ανασάνει
Το πιο μακρύ ταξίδι μου εσύ η νύχτα εσύ το όνειρο της μέρας μικρή πατρίδα σώμα μου κι αρχή η γη μου εσύ ανάσα μου κι αέρας

CHRISTINA AGUILERA "Hurt" Seems like it was yesterday when I saw your face You told me how proud you were but I walked away If only I knew what I know today Ooh ooh
I would hold you in my arms I would take the pain away Thank you for all you've done Forgive all your mistakes.
There's nothing I wouldn't do To hear your voice again. Sometimes I wanna call you but I know you won't be there
Oh, I'm sorry for blaming you for everything I just couldn't do And I've hurt myself by hurting you
Some days I feel broke inside but I won't admit Sometimes I just wanna hide 'cause it's you I miss And it's so hard to say goodbye when it comes to this, ooh, whoa
Would you tell me I was wrong? Would you help me understand? Are you looking down upon me? Are you proud of who I am?
There's nothing I wouldn't do To have just one more chance To look into your eyes and see you looking back
Oh, I'm sorry for blaming you for everything I just couldn't do And I've hurt myself, oh, oh, oh.
If I had just one more day I would tell you how much that I've missed you since you've been away
Oh, it's dangerous It's so out of line To try and turn back time
I'm sorry for blaming you for everything I just couldn't do And I've hurt myself by hurting you
Ακούστε την ιστορία του Κεμάλ ενός νεαρού πρίγκιπα, της ανατολής απόγονου του Σεβάχ του θαλασσινού, που νόμισε ότι μπορεί να αλλάξει τον κόσμο. αλλά πικρές οι βουλές του Αλλάχ και σκοτεινές οι ψυχές των ανθρώπων.
Στης Ανατολής τα μέρη μια φορά και ένα καιρό ήταν άδειο το κεμέρι, μουχλιασμένο το νερό στη Μοσσούλη, τη Βασσόρα, στην παλιά τη χουρμαδιά πικραμένα κλαίνε τώρα της ερήμου τα παιδιά.
Κι ένας νέος από σόι και γενιά βασιλική αγροικάει το μοιρολόι και τραβάει κατά εκεί. τον κοιτάν οι Βεδουίνοι με ματιά λυπητερή κι όρκο στον Αλλάχ τους δίνει, πως θ’ αλλάξουν οι καιροί.
Σαν ακούσαν οι αρχόντοι του παιδιού την αφοβιά ξεκινάν με λύκου δόντι και με λιονταριού προβιά απ’ τον Τίγρη στον Ευφράτη, απ’ τη γη στον ουρανό κυνηγάν τον αποστάτη να τον πιάσουν ζωντανό.
Πέφτουν πάνω του τα στίφη, σαν ακράτητα σκυλιά και τον πάνε στο χαλίφη να του βάλει την θηλιά μαύρο μέλι μαύρο γάλα ήπιε εκείνο το πρωί πριν αφήσει στην κρεμάλα τη στερνή του την πνοή.
Με δύο γέρικες καμήλες μ’ ένα κόκκινο φαρί στου παράδεισου τις πύλες ο προφήτης καρτερεί. πάνε τώρα χέρι χέρι κι είναι γύρω συννεφιά μα της Δαμασκού τ’ αστέρι τους κρατούσε συντροφιά.
Σ’ ένα μήνα σ’ ένα χρόνο βλέπουν μπρος τους τον Αλλάχ που από τον ψηλό του θρόνο λέει στον άμυαλο Σεβάχ: «νικημένο μου ξεφτέρι δεν αλλάζουν οι καιροί, με φωτιά και με μαχαίρι πάντα ο κόσμος προχωρεί»
Καληνύχτα Κεμάλ, αυτός ο κόσμος δε θα αλλάξει ποτέ Καληνύχτα...

Ο Ντέιβιντ Γκίλμορ (David Jon Gilmour, Κέμπριτζ, 6 Μαρτίου 1946) είναι Βρετανός κιθαρίστας, τραγουδιστής και συνθέτης ο οποίος έγινε γνωστός ως μέλος του συγκροτήματος Pink Floyd, στους οποίους εντάχθηκε στα τέλη του 1967 ως αναπληρωματικός κιθαρίστας του Σιντ Μπάρετ. Λίγο αργότερα, όταν ο Μπάρετ εγκατέλειψε την μπάντα λόγω των προβλημάτων που είχε με το LSD, ο Γκίλμορ έγινε ο βασικός κιθαρίστας και βοηθός του Ρότζερ Γουότερς στα φωνητικά. Πολλοί πιστεύουν πως το ταλέντο του ως συνθέτη βοήθησε τους Pink Floyd να γίνουν παγκοσμίως γνωστοί (ιδιαίτερα με το άλμπουμ Dark Side of the Moon). Από το 1987 είναι αρχηγός των Pink Floyd, μετά και την αποχώρηση του Ρότζερ Γουότερς.
Έχει συνεργαστεί με πολλούς μεγάλους καλλιτέχνες όπως ο πρώην bandmate του Syd Barrett, την Kate Bush, Grace Jones, Tom Jones, Elton John, B.B. King, Paul McCartney, John Lennon, Sam Brown, Jools Holland, Bob Dylan, Pete Townshend, The Who, Supertramp, Levon Helm, Robbie Robertson, Alan Parsons, καθώς και με διάφορα προσωρινά συγκροτήματα που έδωσαν φιλανθρωπικές συναυλίες. Έχει εκδώσει 3 προσωπικά άλμπουμ και είναι ο ιδιοκτήτης της μεγάλης αξίας Fender Stratocaster με σειριακό αριθμό 0001 (την πρώτη που βγήκε από γραμμή παραγωγής). Τέλος, θεωρείται από τους σημαντικότερους κιθαρίστες του 20ού αιώνα, και έχει γράψει και εκτελέσει ένα από τα καλύτερα ηλεκτρικά σόλο κιθάρας (για πολλούς το καλύτερο ροκ σόλο κιθάρας),εκείνο του Comfortably Numb, τραγουδιού τού συγκροτήματος στο οποίο ήταν βασικό μέλος, των Pink Floyd.

Θέμα: Ο Ρότζερ Γουώτερς (George Roger Waters) Δευ 10 Οκτ 2016 - 14:46
Ο Ρότζερ Γουώτερς (George Roger Waters, γενν. 6 Σεπτεμβρίου 1943) είναι από τα ιδρυτικά μέλη των Pink Floyd. Έμεινε με το συγκρότημα από το 1965 έως το 1985 με πολύ μεγάλη επιτυχία. Έπαιζε μπάσο και έκανε και τα κύρια φωνητικά (μαζί με τον Γκίλμορ). Ήταν επίσης υπεύθυνος για τους περισσότερους στίχους και το επικό μέγεθος των συναυλιών τους.
Η επιτυχία και εμπορικότητα των Floyd είχε αρχίσει να βαραίνει τους ώμους του πρώτα και κύρια καλλιτέχνη Γουώτερς. Μετά τον γιγαντισμό των συναυλιών για το άλμπουμ The Wall και την πολύ μεγάλη διάδοση των τραγουδιών άρχισε να έχει προβλήματα με τα υπόλοιπα μέλη του γκρουπ. Το άλμπουμ The Final Cut ήταν φτιαγμένο σχεδόν εξολοκλήρου από τον Γουώτερς, με τα υπόλοιπα μέλη να έχουν περιθωριακό ρόλο και να μην είναι ικανοποιημένα.
Η κατάσταση οδήγησε σε πολλές τριβές και έτσι το 1985 ο Γουώτερς αποχώρησε από τους Floyd κάνοντας και μια απόπειρα να αποκτήσει τα εμπορικά δικαιώματα του ονόματος, που όμως απέτυχε γρήγορα. Μετά το 1985 άρχισε σόλο καριέρα με όχι πολύ θεαματικά αποτελέσματα, αλλά με καλές κριτικές.
Στις 2 Ιουλίου 2005 επανενώθηκε προσωρινά με την υπόλοιπη μπάντα για την φιλανθρωπική συναυλία του Live 8 στο Λονδίνο. Στην Ελλάδα εμφανίστηκε στις 18 Ιουνίου 2006 στη Μαλακάσα, για μια ζωντανή εκτέλεση του The Dark Side of the Μoon αλλά και υλικού από τους προσωπικούς του δίσκους.

Pink Floyd – the greatest progressive rock band of all time and one of music’s most successful bands, have sold over 250 million albums around the world, spaned for 14 studio albums. They gaining early recognition for their psychedelic rock music with ‘The Piper At The Gates of Dawn’, and for their focus on experimentation on albums like Atom ‘Heart Mother’ and ‘Ummagumma’. But it was with ‘Meddle’ that their magic began, spreading throughout the next 10 years matching the release of ‘The Wall’.
All of the tracks listed below come from that stretch in the ’70s Pink Floyd period, simply because they were one of the hugest bands on the planet at that time.
Check the 10 Best Pink Floyd Songs:
10 – ‘Brain Damage / Eclipse’ – (‘The Dark Side of the Moon’ / 1973)
‘Brain Damage / Eclipse’ closes the album ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’ and we like to put the double track here, because the songs will always sound as one, connected by the lyrics ‘I’ll see you on the dark side of the moon’. https://open.spotify.com/track/1KAsyqR4syiVIcplUXJZAS https://open.spotify.com/embed/track/1KAsyqR4syiVIcplUXJZAS
Roger Waters had been playing the song during the recording of the ‘Meddle’ album in 1971, when it was called ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’. Eventually this title would be used for the album itself. The song seemed to be partially inspired by their former band member Syd Barrett who had endured a mental breakdown.
‘Eclipse’ was sung by Roger Waters, with harmonies by David Gilmour and Rick Wright. After Waters left, Gilmour sang the lead when performing live. The end of the album/song is chilling on the words ‘and everything under the sun is in tune, but the sun is eclipsed by the moon.’ https://open.spotify.com/track/1KAsyqR4syiVIcplUXJZAS https://open.spotify.com/embed/track/11F32vzTXt5rtlBWcuiF2d
9 – ‘Us and Them’ – (‘The Dark Side of the Moon’ / 1973)
The song began as a piano melody written by the group’s keyboard player Rick Wright when Pink Floyd was composing music for the 1970 film Zabriskie Point, directed by Michelangelo Antonioni.
With prominent jazz influence, lyrics by Roger Waters and it is sung by David Gilmour, ‘Us and Them’ was released as the second single from ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’ in the US. https://open.spotify.com/track/5i30AVO1rGmrTEqW3wKUy0
8 – ‘Dogs’ – (‘The Animals’ / 1977)
The song was written first, back in 1974 by Roger Waters with music co-written by David Gilmour with the title ‘You’ve Got to Be Crazy’.
With 17 minutes long, the song concentrates on the aggressive, ruthlessly competitive world of business, describing a high-powered businessman. ‘Dogs’ has a complex musical composition.
About the song, Gilmour stated: ‘Once in a while I would find something uncomfortable to sing. The first lot Roger wrote for “Dogs” when it was called “You Gotta Be Crazy”, were just too many words to sing. … “Dogs” had so many words, I physically couldn’t get them in. [We] just cut out two-thirds of his words, to make it possible rather than impossible.’ https://open.spotify.com/track/7yWdsy6UHRTun4hkJZJYNq
7 – ‘Another Brick in the Wall Part 2’ – (‘The Wall’ / 1979)
The second and most famous part of the ‘Brick in the Wall’ trilogy directly continues the narrative line and themes begun in ‘Happiest Days of Our Lives.’ Part II is a protest song against rigid schooling in general and boarding schools in the UK in particular.
It was also released as a single and provided the band’s only number-one hit in the United Kingdom, the United States, West Germany and many other countries. Pink Floyd received a Grammy nomination for Best Performance by a Rock Duo or Group, but lost it to Bob Seger’s ‘Against the Wind’. In addition, Part II was number 375 on Rolling Stone ’s list of ‘The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time’. The single sold over 4 million copies worldwide.
The single, as well as the album ‘The Wall’, were banned in South Africa in 1980 after the song was adopted by supporters of a nationwide school boycott protesting racial inequities in education under the apartheid regime https://open.spotify.com/track/21jBRxUvrWXTwBfGnQwyVy
6 – ‘Wish You Were Here’ – (‘Wish You Were Here’ / 1975)
‘Wish You Were Here’ is the title track on Pink Floyd’s 1975 album ‘Wish You Were Here’. David Gilmour and Waters collaborated to write the music and its lyrics encompass Roger Waters’ feelings of alienation from other people. Like most of the album, it refers to former Pink Floyd member Syd Barrett and his breakdown.
In 2011, the song was ranked No. 324 on Rolling Stone’s list of the ‘500 Greatest Songs of All Time.’
On June 14, 2013, the song was released as an unofficial promotional single on Spotify and when fans streamed it one million times, which happened after only four days, the rest of the band’s catalogue was released. https://open.spotify.com/track/1HzDhHApjdjXPLHF6GGYhu
5 – ‘Money’ – (‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’ / 1973)
‘Money’ was written by Roger Waters and released as a single: it became the band’s first hit in the US, reaching at #10 in Cash Box magazine and #13 on the Billboard Hot 100.
‘The Dark Side of the Moon’ was the album that released them from their progressive roots and their psychedelic mainstays, and ‘Money’ was the song that fueled it.
‘Money’ was performed during Pink Floyd’s reunion show, for which Waters rejoined the band (after more than two decades), at the Live 8 concert in London in 2005, along with ‘Breathe’ (including the reprise that follows ‘Time’), ‘Wish You Were Here’ and ‘Comfortably Numb’. https://open.spotify.com/track/1SwE3FURO4wYshsLRggtfv
4 – ‘Echoes’ – (‘Meddle’ / 1971)
Written in 1970 by all four members of the group (credited as Roger Waters, Richard Wright, Nick Mason, David Gilmour on the original release), ‘Echoes’ provides the extended finale to Pink Floyd’s album ‘Meddle’.
The track has a running time of 23:31 and takes up the entire second side of the vinyl recording. According to Shiloh Noone’s Seekers Guide To The Rhythm Of Yesteryear, Pink Floyd introduced a new piece of music at the Crystal Palace Garden party entitled ‘Return of the Sun of Nothing,’ said by the band to be a joke about comic books and Godzilla-type movie sequels, which developed into ‘Echoes’ about 6 months later. The song was also a homage to the minimalist composer Terry Riley. https://open.spotify.com/track/31NKNnScbJo9BaXOwJLvuQ
3 – ‘Time’ – (‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’ / 1973)
‘Time’ is the only song on ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’ credited to all four members of the band, though the lyrics were written by Roger Waters. The song carries the greatest conceptual impact out of all the songs on this amazing album.
This song is about how time can slip by, but many people do not realize it until it is too late. Roger Waters got the idea when he realized he was no longer preparing for anything in life, but was right in the middle of it.
Soulful music, haunting vocals, mind blowing solo rifts, and all packed into one 07:05 song. It doesn’t get any better than this guys! https://open.spotify.com/track/23W5DHu31ZLW9q0p2wQxfN
2 – ‘Comfortably Numb’ – (‘The Wall’ / 1979)
‘Comfortably Numb’ appears on the 1979 double album ‘The Wall’ and it was also released as a single in 1980 with ‘Hey You’ as the B-side. It is one of only three songs on the album for which writing credits are shared between Roger Waters and David Gilmour, showing signs of rupture within the band at this time.
The song is one of Pink Floyd’s most famous, and is renowned especially for its guitar solos in the middle and at the end of the song. In 2004, the song was ranked number 314 on Rolling Stone magazine’s list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. In 2005, it became the last song ever to be performed by Waters, Gilmour, Wright, and Mason together. The two guitar solos were ranked as the greatest guitar solos of all time by both Planet Rock listeners and WatchMojo.com. https://open.spotify.com/track/29zkoUsOE50f0I3n44LjjU
1 – ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Parts I-IV)’ – (‘Wish You Were Here’ / 1975)
The song was first performed on their 1974 French tour, and recorded for their 1975 concept album ‘Wish You Were Here’. This nine-part classic piece of music, written by Roger Waters, Richard Wright and David Gilmour, it’s a tribute to former band member Syd Barrett:
‘Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun Shine on you crazy diamond Now there’s that look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky Shine on you crazy diamond.’
A pinacle on Pink Floyd’s career, with movements that span funk, blues, gospel, rock, classical, jazz, and soul into one song! https://open.spotify.com/track/57DKFdI1zDz9Y5M4ZQIP8C
Perhaps the most wonderful thing about Meddle is the fact that the band was truly functioning as a ‘band’ here. Everyone’s talents can be clearly heard, and no one shouts anybody else down. Although many of the group’s later albums would be unified by a central theme with lyrics written mainly by Roger Waters, Meddle was a group effort with lyrical contributions from each member.
The side one has 5 tracks. The album kicks into gear with the savage instrumental One Of These Days, it was probably Floyd’s ‘hardest’ number to date. It follows with the gorgeous ballad, A Pillow Of Winds, made up of acoustic guitars and sparse bass, with Gilmour’s tranquil vocals. Roger Waters‘ anger and paranoia, don’t yet rule the day, there is profound beauty here, on San Tropez, while the eccentric track Seamus, with its barking dog, actually reveals a sense of humour. And then there’s Echoes on side two. The album’s final piece, maybe one of the best Pink Floyd songs. Fourty-two years later, this epic sound journey stands as one of the band’s greatest achievements. Every element that would become synonymous with Pink Floyd was crystallized in this one phenomenal song. Swirling, bubbling keyboards and liquid guitar lines mix with floating vocal harmonies and a dynamic rhythm section to move the music through several dramatic and powerful moods. The vocal harmony of David Gilmour and Richard Wright is mesmerizing. Without question, this song contains the best verse Mr. Waters ever wrote: “Strangers passing in the street, by chance two separate glances meet, and I am you and what I see is me. And do I take you by the hand, and lead you through the land, and help me understand the best I can?”
Meddle was greeted enthusiastically by fans and critics and achieved 3rd place in the U.K. In the U.S., it did not pass the 70th place. According to Nick Mason, this was partly because Capitol Records did not promote the album with enough publicity.
1973 – Dark Side of the Moon
‘ I’d love to put myself in the role of a person who has never heard this album … put a headset and hear it first … must be a wonderful feeling …’ (David Gilmour in an interview in 2003).
I don’t know where to begin, this album is too much perfect…ok let’s go to the facts! After the very underrated Obscoured By Clouds, Pink Floyd will climb to the pinnacle in Dark Side of the Moon. It’s a jewel of studio work, a real masterpiece at all levels: the sound , the design ( the iconic cover by Hipgnosis created as a result of a request for a ‘simple and bold’ drawing) , the quality of the tracks, the lyrics (Roger Waters had already written the lyrics of Echoes on Meddle, but is in Dark Side of the Moon that his genius finally stands out). I mean, everything is perfect here! Pink Floyd will never do this again, it’s a kind of mission impossible indeed, and the success is thunderous, with Money being the first single since Ummagumma from 69. Dark Side of the Moon has the record on the American charts, that has to be measured …in years (14 years), or if you prefer, 741 weeks!
Pink Floyd toured the bulk of Dark Side of the Moon in Britain for months prior to recording. The album marks a new phase in the band’s sound, with more personal lyrics and with much smaller instrumental parts, containing some of the more complicated uses of instruments and sound effects available at the time. The themes explored in there are varied and personal, including greed, mental illness, aging, death and money.
The listener is drawn in with the sound effects that precede Speak to Me/Breathe, cash registers, jackhammers, old Englishmen talking. On the Run is best described as a series of meaningless and random synths and sound effects, and it mesmerizes you. This song seems to capture the anxiety of everyday life. The sound of masses of clocks all chime in at the same time, hits you, Time has begun! This song is entirely in another league! The brilliant guitar solo, the use of synthesizers, the strong jazz influenced bass, Dave Gilmour‘s distinctive vocal style – not to mention about one of the best guitar solos by Gilmour. Just take a look to this incredible lyrics:
“Ticking away, the moments That make up a dull day, Fritter and waste the hours In an offhand way.” :
…”You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today. And then one day you find ten years have got behind you, no one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun”
The emotional high point of the record is The Great Gig in the Sky, a very moving instrumental which features female backup singer Clare Torry’s vocals. It is both haunting and outstanding at the same time. Instead of singing, she turns her voice into an instrument, while performing a solo with enough passion and soul. Richard Wright shows all his skills and technique in a beautiful sequence on his keyboard.
The cash register at the beginning makes the song recognized in every corner of the planet, along with the most remarkable bass line of the history … Each note penetrates your mind and it’s impossible to forget. The song is sung with satirist and critic air by Waters, then a sax very well placed (worthy of the best jazz works), until ending in an explosion of sounds: saxophone, guitar (another great solo by Gilmour), drums and bass coming together perfectly.
Us And Them deals with the conflicts of life . The music is depressing. Speaks of the isolation of people and empty relationships. It has a very beautiful saxophone solo. Pink Floyd is working on a whole other level here. Any Colour You Like is by far the most extravagant song. Syd Barrett, the tormented genius of our time , is the protagonist mentioned in the track Brain Damage – “and if the band you’re in starts playing different tunes”
There is a strong philosophical presence within the lyrical content of this album, and it’s most evident in the album’s finale, Eclipse. It’s a great song, a fine “grown up” even to close an album.
“All that you touch and all that you see All that you taste All you feel. and all that you love and all that you hate All you distrust All you save. and all that you give and all that you deal and all that you buy, beg, borrow or steal. and all you create and all you destroy and all that you do and all that you say. and all that you eat And everyone you meet and all that you slight And everyone you fight. and all that is now and all that is gone and all that’s to come and everything under the sun is in tune but the sun is eclipsed by the moon.
There is no dark side of the moon, really. Matter of fact it’s all dark. The only thing that makes it look bright is the sun”
This end of the album is from a surreal beauty … Dark Side of the Moon is quite capable of being the best pop rock album of the twentieth century, it is certainly in my top 5!
