Madness - Our House

Madness - Our House (1982)



"Our House"

Father wears his Sunday best
Mother's tired she needs a rest
The kids are playing up downstairs
Sister's sighing in her sleep
Brother's got a date to keep
He can't hang around

Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our

Our house it has a crowd
There's always something happening
And it's usually quite loud
Our mum she's so house-proud
Nothing ever slows her down
And a mess is not allowed

Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our

Our house, in the middle of our street
(Something tells you)
(That you've got to get away from it)
Our house, in the middle of our

Father gets up late for work
Mother has to iron his shirt
Then she sends the kids to school
Sees them off with a small kiss
She's the one they're going to miss
In lots of ways

[Instrumental Interlude]

Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our

I remember way back then when
Everything was true and when
We would have such a very good time
Such a fine time
Such a happy time
And I remember how we'd play
Simply waste the day away
Then we'd say
Nothing would come between us
Two dreamers

Father wears his Sunday best
Mother's tired she needs a rest
The kids are playing up downstairs
Sister's sighing in her sleep
Brother's got a date to keep
He can't hang around

Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our
Our house, was our castle and our keep
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, that was where we used to sleep
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street

 

Burning Spear - Man in the Hills

Burning Spear - Man in the Hills (1976)



My brother go, go to the river
To carry the water, the water
My sister wash up the dishes
She even goes to the shop
And bring in the grocery
When my smaller brother run around
And pick up the bramble
To keep the fire blazing
To keep, to keep mama fire blazing
Blazing fire, fire

(And if we should live up in the hills)
And if we should live up in the hills
(And if we should live up in the hills)

My mother hard at work
Work, my mother, for ya children
My mother hard at work
Work, my mother, for ya children
My daddy he's down, way over, far over
Working out the cultivation
Come in with food, daddy
Come in daddy, come
Come with food, come

And if we should live up in the hills
(And if we should live up in the hills)
Live up, live up, live up in the hills, the hills
(And if we should live up in the hills)
This is the sounds of the hills
(And if we should live up in the hills)
The sounds of the hills, sounds of the hills
(And if we should live up in the hills)

(And if we should live up in the hills)
(And if we should live up in the hills)
(And if we should live up in the hills)
(And if we should live up in the hills)
(And if we should live up in the hills)
(And if we should live up in the hills)
(And if we should live up in the hills)
And if we should live up, live up in the hills
And if we should live up
(And if we should live up in the hills)
I remember the man in the hills
(And if we should live up in the hills)
Still them enjoy it
(And if we should live up in the hills..)

The Beatles - Don't Let Me Down

The Beatles - Don't Let Me Down (1981 remastered version, 1970 recording)



"Don't Let Me Down"

Don't let me down, don't let me down
Don't let me down, don't let me down

Nobody ever loved me like she does
Oh, she does, yes, she does
And if somebody loved me like she do me
Oh, she do me, yes, she does

Don't let me down, don't let me down
Don't let me down, don't let me down

I'm in love for the first time
Don't you know it's gonna last
It's a love that lasts forever
It's a love that had no past (Seeking past)

Don't let me down, don't let me down
Don't let me down, don't let me down

And from the first time that she really done me
Oh, she done me, she done me good
I guess nobody ever really done me
Oh, she done me, she done me good

Don't let me down, hey don't let me down
Heeeee, don't let me down

Don't let me down
Don't let me down, don't let me let down
Can you dig it? Don't let me down

 

So many things I can say positive about this video.
Raw energy and emotion come to mind first, no makeup on the ladies, Fleetwood looking crazy as shit, Buckingham`s hair. wth

Black people are now singing country. Careful, there might even be one or two black Republicans besides Krazy Kanye in the near future.
