Ada yang suka lagu-lagunya Michael Franks...?

Masih ingat KARIMATA ?
KARIMATA, adalah salah satu favorit saya semasa SMA dan zaman kuliah dulu.
Nah, tadi malam, pas membongkar koleksi untuk dicek, baru ingat kalau punya CD MP3 kompilasi yang antara lain berisi album-album KARIMATA, diantaranya Pasti, Biting dan Jezz. JEZZ adalah album KARIMATA yang merupakan hasil kolaborasi dengan Lee Ritenour, Dave Grusin dan Phil Perry serta Uce Haryono.
Ini dua versi yang saya ambil dari album Pasti dan JEZZ.
Kok menurut saya, lebih enak versi instrumental-nya, yaa?
BTW, selamat menikmati KARIMATA....

RAINY DAYS AND YOU

Each time I see those thick dark clouds
I used to smile and make a wish that it
Will turn, (Turn to) rain
Because I know that I would watch,
For you toplay under the rain

But now that rainy days are here
I feel so blue cause I can’t hear all your
Laughter
In the falling rain
And it brings sadness to my heart
Knowing that you’ve gone
From my side

Seems that Rainy Days And You make
A symphony
The rain without you makes me blue
Happy days I knew will only be be right
Here to stay
When the rainy day brings me back.
Brings me back into your arm…….your
arm

Mama take this badge from me
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark too dark to see
Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

Mama put my guns in the ground
I can't shoot them anymore
That cold black cloud is comin' down
Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

"You just better start sniffin' your own
rank subjugation jack 'cause it's just you
against your tattered libido, the bank and
the mortician, forever man and it wouldn't
be luck if you could get out of life alive"*
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

AKU INGIN

Aku ingin mencintaimu dengan sederhana
dengan kata yang tak sempat diucapkan
kayu kepada api yang menjadikannya abu

Aku ingin mencintaimu dengan sederhana
dengan isyarat yang tak sempat disampaikan
awan kepada hujan yang menjadikannya tiada

If blood will flow when fresh and steel are one
Drying in the colour of the evening sun
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay
Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetime's argument
That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are

On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are how fragile we are

On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are how fragile we are
How fragile we are how fragile we are

(Jon Anderson/Rick Wakeman)

I will be there said my friend of a distant life
Covered in greens of a golden age, set in stone
Follow me, "he sounded of dreams supreme" follow me
Drifting within the glow and the after-glow of the eve

And if that firelight, I could match the inner flame

Sacred ships do sail the seventh age

Cast off your garments of fear, replace them with love
Most of all play with the game of the age
Highest of places remain all as one with you
Giving us light and the freedom of the day

And if that firelight, I could match the inner flame

Sacred ships do sail the seventh age
And have always been here

Celestial travellers have always been here with us
Set in the homes of the universe we have yet to go
Countless expansions will arrive and flow inside of us
My friend, he of fantasy, dancing with the spirit of the age

YES dari album TORMATO

Untuk yang penasaran dengan lagu Just For You - nya Richard C....... ;-)))

Sekalian teks-nya, biar tambah gimanaa, gitu...

I can’t stay now and just wait now, my hands then go so impatient
many things I’ve got to do now for the first ray of the morning.
Though she play in peaceful chamber, sleep to me just doesn’t come
when she wake I have to tell her everything I have to say.
And the night so dark inside me makes me finaly understand
where the love that she has given me, she can light the sky forever.
It’s the way she give so freely, it’s the way she takes my hands,
I just ask the sun shine brightly got to see her smile again.
Then I sing a song I’ve writen and I’ll make the whole world listen
in the silence just for you, like no one has ever heard.
And I wake up all the lovers and I give them back for hours
and we’ll do the things we wanted the way that lovers do.
And we’ll run into the street and we’ll start to dance like crazy
cos she want only to feel joy in the love she gives and needs.
And we’ll paint the street and building, rainbow color everyone
those she wants, colors to sing, and we’ll paint full fill with flowers,
make the street alive with spring, make a place where lovers go, fly away like lovers do.
Then we’ll fly into the sky and we’ll look into the stars
and our stars return the hole world,
the love we have, we are, the love we share is sweet
the love we know is real, that love is not to dream but last, we know that alone
Because you love and my begin without dreaming all begin,
and the love that you have give return to us to win
cos your love for me is not begining and the end your love
for me, forever, you love for me forever…
