Arctic Monkeys'den bir baş yapıt: 505

Richard Ashcroft'un  "A Song For The Lovers" klibini izleyen biri sevgili-otel-ayrılık (beklenenin gelmemesi ya da hiç beklenmemesi) üçlemesinin ne olduğunu bilir. Bu açıdan her otel odası bir başka ilişki hikayesi anlatır bizlere. Tıpkı Leonard Cohen'in meşhur "chelsea hotel" inde olduğu gibi. Beklenen sevgili ya hiç gelmez ya da geldiyse artık hiç bir şey eskisi gibi değildir anlayacağınız. İşte Arctic monkeys  (yani bence Alex Turner)  505 ile bize öyle basit bir hikayeyi öyle ışıltılı bir kaybeden hikayesine dönüştürüyor ki insanın ardından "the last shadow puppets" dan  "my mistakes were made for you" dinleyesi geliyor.

ÜZDÜNÜZ BENİ YILLAR-VS-Silent All These Years

ÜZDÜNÜZ BENİ YILLAR-VS-Silent All These Years

bu ikisinide dinleyin derim!

NOT:Leonard Cohen'li "Silent All These Years" versiyonunda
"i heard of a man
who says words so beautifully,
that if he only speaks their name,
women give themselves to him.
if i am dumb beside your body
while silence blossoms like tumors on our lips,
it is because i hear a man
climb the stairs and clear his throat
outside our door.."

der ver çeker gider...

Leonard Cohen-Famous Blue Rain Coat

Its four in the morning, the end of december
Im writing you now just to see if youre better
New york is cold, but I like where Im living
Theres music on clinton street all through the evening.

I hear that youre building your little house deep in the desert
Youre living for nothing now, I hope youre keeping some kind of record.

Yes, and jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night that you planned to go clear
Did you ever go clear?

Ah, the last time we saw you you looked so much older
Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
Youd been to the station to meet every train
And you came home without lili marlene

And you treated my woman to a flake of your life
And when she came back she was nobodys wife.

Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth
One more thin gypsy thief
Well I see janes awake --

She sends her regards.
And what can I tell you my brother, my killer
What can I possibly say?
I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you
Im glad you stood in my way.

If you ever come by here, for jane or for me
Your enemy is sleeping, and his woman is free.

Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes
I thought it was there for good so I never tried.

And jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night that you planned to go clear
