U2: I still haven’t found what I’m looking for: 1987: Lyrics and Video







“I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
But yes, I'm still running.”



“I have climbed the highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you

I have run, I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire
This burning desire

I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone

But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for

I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
But yes, I'm still running

You broke the bonds
And you loosed the chains
Carried the cross of my shame
Of my shame, you know I believe it

But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for

But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.”

Nik Kershaw: Wouldn’t it be good:1984: Lyrics and Video






“I got it bad
You don't know how bad I got it
You got it easy
You don't know when you've got it good

It's getting harder
Just keeping life and soul together
I'm sick of fighting
Even though I know I should

The cold is biting
Through each and every nerve and fiber
My broken spirit is frozen to the core
I don't wanna be here no more

Wouldn't it be good to be in your shoes
Even if it was for just one day?
Wouldn't it be good if we could wish ourselves away?

Wouldn't it be good to be on your side?
The grass is always greener over there
Wouldn't it be good if we could live without a care?

You must be joking
You don't know a thing about it
You've got no problem
I'd stay right there if I were you

I got it harder
You couldn't dream how hard I got it
Stay out of my shoes
If you know what's good for you

The heat is stifling
Burning me up from the inside
The sweat is coming through each and every pore
I don't wanna be here no more
I don't wanna be here no more
I don't wanna be here no more

Wouldn't it be good to be in your shoes
Even if it was for just one day?
Wouldn't it be good if we could wish ourselves away?
Ooh

Wouldn't it be good to be on your side?
The grass is always greener over there
Wouldn't it be good if we could live without a care?

I got it bad
You don't know how bad I got it
You got it easy
You don't know when you've got it good

It's getting harder
Just keeping life and soul together
I'm sick of fighting
Even though I know I should

I don't wanna be here no more.”

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love, both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby it just happens ev'ryday

I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black

No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not forsee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

Hmm, hmm, hmm...

I wanna see it painted black, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun, blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
Yeah

Thanks for sharing with us Carl0s.

You may also like our own blues boffin from Durban, South Africa - Dan Patlansky. See him on tour in London.

Seeing an artist perform live is always better than a recording. No bullshit or backtracks. Just talent.

[Blurock]

Elvis Blue is another local artist that is coming on strong. See him perform with Dan Patlansky.

Bruce Channel: Hey Baby: 1961: Lyrics and movie scene Dirty Dancing




“Heyyyy, hey baby!
I want to know if you'll be my girl
Heyyyy, hey baby!
I want to know if you'll be my girl

When I saw you walkin down the street
I said that's a kind of gal I'd like to meet
She's so pretty, Lord she's fine
I'm gonna make her mine all mine

Heyyy, hey baby!
I want to know if you'll be my girl

When you turned and walked away
That's when I want to say
C'mon baby, give me a whirl
I want to know if you'll be my girl

Heyyyy, hey baby!
I want to know if you'll be my girl

When you turned and walked away
That's when I want to say
C'mon baby, give me a whirl
I want to know if you'll be my girl

Heyyyyy, hey baby!
I want to know if you'll be my girl
Hey, hey hey hey hey, baby
C'mon, baby now.”
