@jonsson-niedziolka.pl In Vienna we sit in a late-night café Straight connection, TEE In Wien sitzen wir im Nacht-Café Direktverbindung, TEE I haven't reflected before over the fact that this only rhymes in German, so it's clear which version came first. #lyrics #kraftwerk

RE: https://mastodon.social/@europeanspodcast/116968326350349013 Looks like #Qobuz is listening to @europeanspodcast@mastodon.social - it now has #lyrics support (finally, long overdue)... and a translation button! And the translation appears below the original line so you can sing along

“America. A Poem for July 4.” was drafted in summer 1893 while Bates taught English at Colorado College. The wondrous views atop Pikes Peak (Tavi'wachi Núuchi name: Tavakiev) inspired her wish for a wholly egalitarian, inclusive U.S. given the sexist and anti-equality prejudices of the period, the havoc of the Industrial Revolution, her direct knowledge of urban poverty’s effects, and the Panic of 1893, a severe economic depression lasting eight months.

A life of crime, it never pays For poor old Al, it was the end He spent his life, cheatin' and griftin' Took the wrong path, went the wrong way Al and the band, tried Hollywood But they could not, make music pay Al turned to crime, and stole some money 98 counts of fraud, they put him away Instead of music, and a little strumming Al stole lots of money, a pyramid scheme A Texas jury, put him in the slammer For stealing millions, and buying a Mercedes The moral of, this little story Choose the right path, instead of crime 24 years in the slammer, a pauper's grave For poor old Al, 'cause his life it went awry (best sung to "You Win Again" played by Al Perry and the Countrymen) #crime #lyrics (human written)

RE: https://tenforward.social/@djwudi/115990071280109729 You only need to change a few words to update When That Man Is Dead And Gone: Some fine day the news'll flash Satan with that orange rash Is asleep beneath the lawn When that man is dead and gone Tho' I think it sounds a bit more 1940 to say "that awful rash" and it'd certainly be easier to sing. I'm not into Al Bowlly's extended lyrics; the line about Goering's a bit difficult in a bunch of ways: Satan'll take him by the hand To meet old Goering, luftwaffe man But maybe (with context): What a day to wake up on What a way to greet the dawn Satan with those tiny hands will fall into hell's hinterlands When that man is dead and gone When that man is dead and gone #song #lyrics #update #GlennMiller #AlBowlly #WhenThatManIsDeadAndGone
