The dryer rattling. Probably hear the vacuum cleaner before the day is over.

Lyric translation:

Quote:

A small human only pretends to die
it wanted to be completely alone
the small heart stood still for hours
so they decided it was dead
it is being buried in wet sand *
with a music box in its hand

The first snow covers the grave
it woke the child very softly
in a cold winter night
the small heart is awakened

As the frost flew into the child
it wound up the music box
a melody in the wind
and the child sings from the ground

Up and down, rider **
and no angel climbs down
my heart does not beat anymore
only the rain cries on the grave
up and down, rider
a melody in the wind
my heart does not beat anymore
and the child sings from the ground

The cold moon, in full magnificence
it hears the cries in the night
and no angel climbs down
only the rain cries on the grave

Between hard oak boards
it will play with the music box
a melody in the wind
and the child sings from the ground

Up and down, rider
and no angel climbs down
my heart does not beat anymore
only the rain cries on the grave
up and down, rider
a melody in the wind
my heart does not beat anymore
and the child sings from the ground

Up and down, rider
my heart does not beat anymore

On Totensonntag they heard ***
this melody from god's field ****
then they unearthed it
they saved the small heart in the child

Up and down, rider
a melody in the wind
my heart does not beat anymore
and the child sings on the ground
up and down, rider
and no angel climbs down
my heart does not beat anymore
only the rain cries on the grave

While untranslated songs are in perfect rhyme...when translated many things are "lost" due to the translation

But on the other hand it is funny...when I am listening to your songs...because I do understand your language...everything sounds "spot on" /right

According to comments...this song os perfectly put together from various artists...

Deep Purple...Pink Floyd...text is from one local folk singer...Hendrix

I would add there are some elements from Madonna music videos (hippy woman while dancing)...

Beastie boys? (dress code?)

AWESOME!!


Glad you could appreciate that pretty much unknown Gem. Musical tastes vary widely, mine do from day to day, but I am back on my African music kick, and trying to find more golden underappreciated relatively obscure oldies.

Late afternoon, I drove somewhere where I could park with a Nice view of the sunset over the pacific through my windshield, where people tend to congregate then for that view. I was playing the following song, and 3 separate groups of people started feeling it, bouncing to the bass guitar and drums, One couple came over and asked me what it was, and then to turn it up, then motioned for a bit more volume. When the horns came in at 2:00, they lost it. She, was very good dancer. Hot too.
