Love Classic/Love Hard:Kix-Don't close your eyes:

Adeseori comparati cu Ratt sau Warrant,Kix nu au avut acelasi succes comercial dar cu siguranta au lasat in urma niste cantece superbe.
Au gustat celebritatea intre anii '80-'90 si dupa maimulte single'uri care au ramas inca necunoscute pentru publicul larg au lansat Blow my fuse,primul lor succes major,primul album premiat cu platina si de asemenea primul care a intrat in Billboard.

In 1988 au lansat principalul lor material discografic,Blow my fuse de pe care face parte unul dintre celemai cunoscute single'uri ale lor,"Don't close your eyes".
O balada superba cu versuri "anti-sinucidere",un videoclip alb-negru de asemenea foarte artistic si in loc 11 bine meritat in Billboard.

Versuri:

Whatcha doing out in the night time?
Why'd ya callin' me on the phone?
Your mama can't solve your problems
When's daddy, ever get home?

So you did your little move and cried
In the middle of a suicide

Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't sing your last lullaby

There's no one there to hold you
No one hears your scream
You live life up and down now
Your nightmares are your dreams

I know it's lonely when your hanging 'round
Don't ya take it lying down, no, no

Hold on, hold on tight
I'll make everything all right
Wake up don't go to sleep
I'll pray the Lord your soul to keep

Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't sing your last lullaby

Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't sing your last lullaby

200 Rock Songs Named After Girls(list):

Daca e sa ne luam dupa ce spune istoria,rock'ul se imparte in 2 mari ere:
Cea dinante de balade si cea dupa balade,si chiar daca inca de la inceput muzica rock a fost "melodie" si nu "sunet",baladele au luat vizibil cu asalt muzica rock abia la un moment dat,un moment in care fanii acestui gen s-au impartit in 2 categorii:
Rock'ul dur,acel sound pur din care face parte mai ales heavy metal'ul si genurile ce au urmat ce instigau la rebeliune si tot felul de fapte ce au catalogat rock'ul in general ca "bolnav" si momentul in care pana si cei mai pletosi pletosi de pe mapamond si-au pus gandurile,ranile si povestile amoroase(care sunt destul)pe hartie si le-au transformat in cele mai patrunzatoare piese compuse vreodata ce au luat numele de "balada".
Eu ceva mai "perfect" ca o balada rock nu am vazut.
Da'...ma rog,aceasta schimbare o vom comenta pe larg cel mai probabil intr-o viitoare editie din "5 O'rock".
Ideea era ca din aceea multitudine de cantece numite "balade",o buna parte o reprezinta declaratiile de dragoste fata de iubirile vietii lor,declaratii mai mult decat superbe dedicate femeilor ce au avut un impact emotional enorm in viata lor.
Unii dintre ei au ales ca muza una din aceste persoane speciale,altii le-au dedicat aceste cantece,dar cei mai multi dintre ei le-au pus numele chiar in titlu.
Cele mai multe dintre acestea au devenit adevarate fenomene,si orice fata purta acel nume se simtea special,multi iubitori de muzica buna chiar si-au numit si copii dupa acestea si orice cantec de acest gen,odata lansat a venit "la pachet" cu o poveste interesanta,un scenariu de film,o parte mai mult sau mai putin roz din viata celor mai mari legende ale rock'ului.
Povestia adevarate,sentimente reale,tariri,suferinta,tradare si dragoste pura exprimata prin versuri si muzica "curata",cam asa ar arata o descriere scurta a acestui gen de melodii.
Precizare:Sunt multe melodii compuse pentru/cu gandul la/in cinstea/memoria unei femei,in aceasta lista am bifat doar cantecele ce contin un nume(de femeie)in titlu.
Acestea fiind spuse,hai sa vedem o LISTA(sper sa se observe cuvantul LISTA) cu 200 dintre aceste capodopere.Daca am repetat un titlu de mai multe ori,va rog sa-mi spuneti:

Love Classic/Love Hard:Europe-Carrie:

Probabil nu exista persoana (trecuta de 25 de ani)care sa nu fi auzit macar odata "The final countdown",genul acela de melodie care iti acapareaza simturile si creierul dar habar n-ai cine o canta.
Este probabil una dintre cele mai mari dovezi ca in muzica adevarata nu conteaza numele ci melodia,o poti asculta la nesfarsit,iti place,o asculti si fredonezi dar nu stii artistul/trupa ce o interpreteaza.Odata ce ai aflat geniul ce a creeat-o esti deja "fan".
Bine,nu vorbim de single;ul lor nr. 1 all time ci de una dintre cele mai cunoscute balade si melodii ale lor,"Carrie".
Extrasa de pe cel mai bun album al lor,The final countdown este si cel mai mare succes al trupei,surprinzator este singura melodie a lor care a stat pe locul 3 in Billboard 100 jumatate de an(1987).
Aceasta a fost scrisa de Tempest si Michaeli si a "furat" succesul melodiei de pe albumul cu aceelasi nume la momentul lansarii,"The final countdown" devenind "epica" dupa mai multi ani de la lansare.
Pentru mine ramane una dintre cele mai bune,trecand peste cea considerata ca fiind "numarul 1" doar pentru faima obtinuta dupa reclama excesiva.Alaturi de "Rock the night","Carrie" ramane in sufletul meu ca una dintre cele mai frumoase balade rock.

Versuri: When lights go down, I see no reason For you to cry. We've been through this before In every time, in every season, God knows I've tried So please don't ask for more. Can't you see it in my eyes This might be our last goodbye Carrie, Carrie, things they change my friend Carrie, Carrie, maybe we'll meet again somewhere again I read your mind, with no intentions Of being unkind, I wish I could explain It all takes time, a whole lot of patience If it's a crime, how come I feel no pain. Carrie, Carrie, things they change my friend Carrie, Carrie, maybe we'll meet again Carrie, Carrie, things they change my friend Carrie, Carrie, maybe we'll meet again somewhere again 1.Va considerati fan Europe?(intrebare retorica pentru Cristina(Innocent Phantom) 2.Care vi se pare cea mai buna melodie a trupei? 3.Stiati cine canta "The final countdown" dinainte sa ascultati melodia?

Your heart needs:Bonnie Tyler-Total eclipse of the heart

Fiecare dintre noi are un moment(sau mai multe) in viata cand se simt deja la 2 metri sub pamant si depresia a lovit din toate partile iar o melodie bine aleasa pentru versuri,ritm sau semnificatie poate face muuult bine.Si uite cum am ajuns si la a ...:-? 3 ramificatie,deja din "Melodia zilei".
A 3'a dar nu si ultima avand in vedere ca rotitele inca se invart la paremetrii corespunzatori.Si dupa cum am spus si mai sus in aceasta vom bifa baladele,cantecele de dragoste si acele bucatele auditive ce va fac mai rau sau mai bine,va starnesc amintiri mai mult sau mai putin placute si misca ceva in sufletelu' vostru.Sau ma rog daca sunteti de aia 70% piatra nu simtiti nici pe dracu'.
Ramane una dintre cele mai bune balade din istorie si hit'ul numarul 1 a lui Bonnie Tyler.A fost pe locul 1 in UK,USA dar si in Australia.
Aceasta a facut parte de pe albumul Faster Then the Speed of Night,al 4-lea single de pe acest album.Lansat in Aprilie 1983.Acesta ramane in istoria muzicii ca unul dintre cele mai bune cantece al anilor '80 si,ma repet,una dintre cele mai bune balade,care mie,personal mi-a intrat in suflet de la prima ascultare.

Versuri:

Turnaround, every now and then I get a
little bit lonely and you're never coming around
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit restless and I dream of something wild
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit helpless and I'm lying like a child in your arms
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit angry and I know I've got to get out and cry
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit terrified but then I see the look in your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
Cause we'll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround, every now and then I know
you'll never be the boy you always you wanted to be
Turnaround, every now and then I know
you'll always be the only boy who wanted me the way that I am
Turnaround, every now and then I know
there's no one in the universe as magical and wonderous as you
Turnaround, every now and then I know
there's nothing any better and there's nothing I just wouldn't do
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
Cause we'll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart
