Ed Sheeran-I See Fire


He is a young boy from England! Only 22 years old and yet so talented and recognized!We are talking about Ed Sheeran. After Ben Howard, he is the next breakthrough act from UK. His music is really emotional and the lyrics he writes go deeper and deeper! He was chosen to perform the soundtrack of The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug. And he did write and perform the song in a day. You can watch the music video of the recording session and read the lyrics here. Me, as not a big fan of the movie, I was pretty touched by the song. Feel free to share it. (Merry Christmas btw) :)



Ed Sheeran-I See Fire

Oh misty eye of the mountain below
Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls
And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke
Keep watching over Durin's Sons

If this is to end in fire then we shall all burn together
Watch the flames climb high into the night
Calling out father, oh stand by and we will watch the flames burn auburn on the mountainside

And if we should die tonight we shall all die together
Raise a glass of wine for the last time
Calling out father, oh prepare as we will watch the flames burn auburn on the mountainside
Desolation comes upon the sky

Now I see fire inside the mountain
I see fire burning the trees
And I see fire hollowing souls
I see fire, blood in the breeze
And I hope that you remember me

Oh should my people fall then surely I'll do the same
Confined in mountain halls, we got too close to the flames
Calling out father, oh hold fast and we will watch the flames burn auburn on the mountainside
Desolation comes upon the sky

Now I see fire inside the mountain
I see fire burning the trees
And I see fire hollowing souls
I see fire, blood in the breeze
And I hope that you remember me

And if the night is burning I will cover my eyes
For if the dark returns then my brothers will die
And as the sky is falling down it crashed into this lonely town
And with that shadow upon the ground I hear my people screaming out

And I see fire inside the mountains
I see fire burning the trees
And I see fire hollowing souls
I see fire, blood in the breeze
I see fire (oh you know I saw a city burning) fire
And I see fire (feel the heat upon my skin) fire
And I see fire...fire

And I see fire burn auburn on the mountainside

James Vincent McMorrow-Red Dust

I 'm very sorry but I cannot help it. James Vincent McMorrow has stolen my heart a few years ago and since then I keep on coming back to his oldies! You must got confused because "Red Dust" premiered yesterday but for those who follow James for years already knew this song. They have watched him playing it live at Lowlands Festival and almost cried in the end, when he hit that falsetto, saying "sometimes my hands they don't feel like my own i need someone to love i need someone to hold"! "Red Dust" will be in the tracklist of his new album "Post Tropical". Enjoy :)



James Vincent McMorrow-Red Dust

I will not cave under you
for my heart is an unending tomb
i will not trouble your rest
for my heart is infinity blessed

ever a hard rot
cut from an ancient cloth of old

someone is ringing a bell
it chimes through this shimmering shell
that once was my vision of birth
now is my vessel and curse

heat from the tall lamp
melting the outer wax that holds
blood from a deep cut
some of the reddest stuff to flow

sometimes my hands they don't feel like my own
i need someone to love i need someone to hold

The Black Keys-Lonely Boy

Well I'm so above you
And it's plain to see
But I came to love you anyway
So you tore my heart out
And I don't mind bleeding
Any old time you keep me waiting
Waiting, waiting

Chorus:
Oh, oh-oh I got a love that keeps me waiting
Oh, oh-oh I got a love that keeps me waiting
I'm a lonely boy
I'm a lonely boy
Oh, oh-oh I got a love that keeps me waiting

Well your mama kept you but your daddy left you
And I should've done you just the same
But I came to love you
Am I born to bleed?
Any old time you keep me wating
Waiting, waiting

Chorus:
Oh, oh-oh I got a love that keeps me waiting
Oh, oh-oh I got a love that keeps me waiting
I'm a lonely boy
I'm a lonely boy
Oh, oh-oh I got a love that keeps me waiting


Oh, oh-oh I got a love that keeps me waiting
Oh, oh-oh I got a love that keeps me waiting
I'm a lonely boy
I'm a lonely boy
Oh, oh-oh I got a love that keeps me waiting

Ane Brun-Daring To Love

You will find me there among the brave ones
the ones that I can never overcome
I want to be someone you can lay your weight upon
someone who's saves you someone who holds on

Daring to love
oh love
la la la la la la la la la la laa
and come alive
alive
la la la la la la la la la la laa

I can be your heroine
if someone lends a hand to hold my heart
this heaving pounding sound I am carrying
it leads me straight it makes me fall apart

Daring to love
oh love
la la la la la la la la la la la laa
and come alive
alive
la la la la la la la la la la laa
but most of all to be loved

I will fail to take the easy way out
I will tell the truth one more time
even though it hurts even though I stay in the sheets we have on
I will take a step on the densest darkest ground

Daring to love
oh love
la la la la la la la la la la la laa
and come alive
alive
la la la la la la la la la la laa
but most of all to be loved

Mr. Little Jeans-Oh Sailor

Is there place for new-pop music in the international charts? Well, if you listen to Mr. Little Jeans, you will say YES! She is a norwegian living in London. She got her stage name from a tv show figure. Her real name is Monica Birkenes and her talent travelled already to Hollywood, since her song " Back to the Start" was the official soundtrack of Iron Man 3. She grew up, wearing her mother's outfits from another era and this is exactly how nostalgic her music is. Watch the music video and read the lyrics of her last releases track "Oh Sailor" here.
Enjoy :)




Mr. Little Jeans-Oh Sailor

Cold nights
Strange dreams
Memories stuck like glue

Her face
Her voice
Sail 'cross the seas with you

Can you hear all the angels

When you feel like you're out there on your own
Know there is someone watching over you
When out at sea feels nothing like a home
Oh sailor we will blow the wind like

And if you're tired of them
Telling you what to do
I hope you know that you can sail right on
I hope you know you've got the ocean blue

No sound
Worse than
Silence a curse that grows

Big words
Kept in
Whispers of dreams untold

Just don't fight all the angels

When you feel like you're out there on your own
Know there is someone watching over you
When out at sea feels nothing like a home
Oh sailor we will blow the wind like

And if you're tired of them
Telling you what to do
I hope you know that you can sail right on
I hope you know you've got the ocean blue

When you feel like you're out there on your own
Know there is someone watching over you
When out at sea feels nothing like a home
Oh sailor we will blow the wind like

And if you're tired of them
Telling you what to do
I hope you know that you can sail right on
I hope you know you've got the ocean blue

When you feel like you're out there on your own
Know there is someone watching over you
When out at sea feels nothing like a home
Oh sailor we will blow the wind like

And if you're tired of them
Breaking you into two
I hope you know that you can sail right on
I hope you know you've got the ocean blue
