HOT CUTS IMRE

Hesitation

A Huge Thank You to my dear collaborator Frans Beelaard. I had send him this song in my version and it came back like this… :)
He played a bass line, 2 guitars, one lead and one rhythm. Also included is an acoustic drum track with 22" Zildjian ride & crash cymbals & tambourine and an acoustic piano track.
On top of that he also mixed and mastered the whole thing.
A great honor and pleasure for me.

The lines (edited, translated, modified, revised, retranslated, reedited…) originally derived from verse shards by two German poets: 
Stefan George (1868-1933), „Albagal“, 1892 and 
Durs Grünbein (born 1962), “Porzellan: Poem vom Untergang meiner Stadt“, 2006 and „Bericht von der Ermordung des Heliogabal durch seine Leibgarde“, 1999
I glued these verse shards together with a refrain.

During my research on porcelain I came along Kin Tsugi, a Japanese form of art, putting broken porcelain back together again. The picture shows such a piece.

Smashed Porcelain

1
Descend once more into the air-raid shelter. 
Observe:
Your ancestors, crowded together, in their final attire,

Comrades, hostages to mass hysteria,
How they curse, sob, 
Just moments ago uninhibited,
When the Führer arrived in the Mercedes of the Messiah.

How long ago was that, you ask ?
Man…
How long ago was that, you ask ?

2
Oh, I’m descending a marble staircase.
A headless body lies in the middle. Once again.
There, the blood of my dear brother seeps out.
I gently gather up my purple train.

How long ago was that, you ask ?
Gee…
How long ago was that, you ask ?

3
Oh, oh, ohh…
Only 
Caesar didn't care ´bout anything. 
As he watched with glee 
When Rome sank to ruins 
Like a tourist from overseas…

How long ago was that, you ask ?
Well…
How long ago was that, you ask ?


4
Why complain, latecomer ? 
The city long gone before you were there 
Ahh, those teary eyes - 
They’re different from grey hair-air-air…

How long ago was that, you ask ? 
Gee…
How long ago was that, you ask ?
Oh folks, I can't say.						

The only Word
For „Gone Forever“
Is „Today“.

Static is an edgy alt-rock anthem about breaking free from the noise. Electric guitars snarl over pounding drums as Artemis & Nymphs capture the chaos of modern life, where thoughts blur with the world’s static, until clarity cuts through and the ride begins.

Static

Suas possibilidades dão o brilho do seu olhar
Levam toda a força de um rei
Mostram que a leveza está no ar
De muitos afetos que lhe dei

Leva contigo tudo que puder
Conta comigo para o que vier
Me dê motivos, eu gosto
Dos seus motivos, os
Que me levam pra qualquer lugar
Onde eu possa estar junto à ti

Para uma vida exemplar
Sigo leve e forte o meu buscar
De tanto cair me levantei
Fazendo gírias próprias de viver

Super impressed by my buddy @dough-factory 's rhyming skills on here! This one started out as a beat from Ryan, I added trippy synth, organ and guitar noodling then sent back to him. He mixed, arranged and added the killer vocals as well as some record skips that add a nice touch.

Lyrics
He got bottles of dreams to keep hiding himself away from life
he said he’s gotta be the best or there’s no point in trying tonight
it takes too much time to get up and not enough time to fall down
he was always getting somewhere didn’t think he’d ever get tied to this town (no not to this town)

Can you hold on
Tell me Can you hold on

She got two more lives to go now then she’ll finally stick around and she’s been around
the bag she’s trying to drown in sponsored by online love she never found no she never found
she got excuses ready and waiting every one’s got its own special place it’s her special place
with too many hang-ups and over’s you can’t rewrite the lines in your face no not on your face

Can you hold on
Tell me Can you hold on
Hold on for another day
Hold on don’t be afraid
Hold on we’ll find another way
Hold on just hold on
Hold on please hold on

And if you had your chance again 
would you fall down the same paths
cos The world inside is empty 
if you can’t see past the past
and if you had your time again 
would you walk in another’s shoes
cos the choices are so empty 
if you’re too much a fool to lose
yeah your world inside is empty 
if you’re too afraid to choose
you’re too afraid to lose 
can you see past your past

And hold on for another day hold on now
Hold on don’t be afraid hold on now
Hold on we’ll find another way so hold on now
Hold on just hold on
Hold on please hold on


Bottled Dreams (Hold on)

LA VIE VOYOU T’EN SORS PAS VIVANT
FOURRE-TOI BIEN ÇA DANS LE CAILLOU
FROID DANS LE DOS ET CHAUD DEVANT
DES DIAMANTS DANS LE BAYOU

LA VIE VOYOU C’EST CAÏMAN
ÇA NOUS AVALE COMME UN CAILLOU
FROID DANS LE DOS ET CHAUD DEVANT 
A L’OMBRE OU SOUS LES VERROUS

LA VIE VOYOU Y’A PAS D’AVANT 
PAS D’APRÈS MAIS QU’EST-CE QU’ON S’EN FOUT
FROID DANS LE DOS ET CHAUD DEVANT
C’EST AINSI QU’ON SE LA JOUE

LA VIE VOYOU C’EST PAS SOUVENT
QUE TU LA TIENS PAR LE BON BOUT
FROID DANS LE DOS ET CHAUD DEVANT
MAIS TANT QUE T’AS LE BAMBOU

LA VIE VOYOU C’EST MAINTENANT
ET ICI OU BIEN PAS DU TOUT
FROID DANS LE DOS ET CHAUD DEVANT
DES DIAMANTS ET DES CAILLOUX

LA VIE VOYOU C’EST FEUILLE AU VENT
ET C’EST BIEN SOUVENT SANS LE SOU
CHAUD DANS LE DOS ET FROID DEVANT
LE TOUT SANS DESSUS DESSOUS

C’EST ÇA LA VIE VOYOU


LA VIE VOYOU (lyrics)

IF YOU EVER FEEL COLD AND WEARY
IN NEED OF A SHOULDER TO REST TOUR HEAD	
SOME ONE TO TALK TO  OR TO SHARE
YOUR BED FOR A NIGHT
MAY I BE
YOUR PERFECT STRANGER

WHEN AROUND AND AROUND YOUR THOUGHTS  WANDER
AND YOUR TINY LIFE SEEMS TO MAKE NO SENSE
LOOK AT ME STANDING BY YOUR SIDE
COMPLETELY UNKNOWN
LET ME BE
YOUR PERFECT STRANGER
          
THE CLOSER WE ARE THE HARDEST IT IS
TO OPEN OUR HEART SOMETIMES      SOMETIMES

AND MAYBE BABY WILL COME A DAY
WHEN I SHALL FEEL LONE AND WEARY
LOOKING FOR SOMEONE NEVER SEEN BEFORE 
NEVER TO SEE AGAIN
THEN WILL YOU BE
MY PERFECT STRANGER
PERFECT STRANGER
MOMENTARILY
INADVERTEDLY
BABY WILL YOU BE
THE PERFECT STRANGER TO ME

PERFECT STRANGER  (Lyrics)

I’M A DOG IN THE CITY
NO ONE COULD TELL I’M A BUM
SOMETIMES I’M GIVEN A BONE
SOMETIMES EVEN I’M THROWN AT
A BUCK ON THE SIDEWALK

I’M A BUM IN THE JUNGLE
NO ONE COULD TELL I’M A DOG 
SOMETIMES THEY PUT ME ON A THRONE
SOMETIMES THEY THROW ME A CROWN OR
A BUCK ON THE SIDEWALK

CAN I AFFORD A SMILE
WOULD YOU OFFER A KISS
I SURE COULD WALK A MILE
FOR THE MINIMAL BLISS
OF A BUCK ON THE SIDEWALK

CAN I AFFORD A SMILE
WOULD YOU OFFER A KISS
I SURE COULD CRAWL A MILE
FOR THE MINIMAL BLISS
OF A BUCK ON THE SIDEWALK 

I’M A BUCK ON THE SIDEWALK
NO ONE  COULD TELL I’M A MAN
WHO’S GONNA PICK ME UP NOW 
AND MAYBE GIVE ME SOME CHANGE BACK
OUT OF A BUCK ON THE SIDEWALK
A BUCK ON THE SIDEWALK
A BUCK ON THE SIDEWALK

A BUCK ON THE SIDEWALK (Lyrics)

MY KEYS MY DOOR
MY FEET ON THE FLOOR
MY WALLET MY HEAD
WHATEVER INSTEAD  
I THOUGHT IT WAS HERE
BUT TO DISAPPEAR
SEEMS TO BE THE TRICK
OF ALL OF MY GEAR
AND I’M
LOOKING FOR SOMETHING

MY HEAD MY GUN
MY DOG ON THE RUN
YOUR ASS YOUR HIPS
YOUR KISS ON MY LIPS
I THOUGHT YOU WERE HERE
BUT TO DISAPPEAR
SEEMS TO BE ONE TRICK
OF YOURS MY DEAR
AND I’M
LOOKING FOR SOMETHING

I LOSE MY MIND
AND ALL I CAN FIND
IS MEMORY LOSS
OH BABY I’M LOST
A MAN IN THE CROWD
A KID ON A CLOUD
A REASON TO LIVE
OR TO DIE
OH I’M
LOOKING FOR SOMETHING


MY KEYS MY DOOR
MY FEET OFF THE FLOOR
MY WALLET MY HEAD
WHATEVER INSTEAD  
I THOUGHT WE WERE HERE
BUT TO DISAPPEAR
SEEMS TO BE THE TRICK
OF LIFE MY DEAR
MY SHADOW AT NOON 
MY NEEDLE MY SPOON
THE TRACKS OF MY TEARS
IT ALL DISAPPEARS

LOOKING FOR SOMETHING (Lyrics)

QUAND NOUS SERONS LÀ-HAUT
A L’ABRI BIEN AU CHAUD
FINI LES MAUX DE DOS
FINI LES MOTS DODO

AYANT LAISSÉ EN BAS
NOS SACS ET NOS CABAS
RETROUVÉ NOS PAPAS 
ET NOS MAMAS ÇA VA DE SOI

ON SE REGARDERA
ET ON RIGOLERA
DE S’ÊTRE FAIT DU SOUCI POUR ÇA


QUAND NOUS SERONS LÀ-HAUT
OUI QUAND NOUS SERONS LÀ-BAS
AU PAYS DES OISEAUX
ET AU SON DU TUBA


ON SE RAPPROCHERA
ON SE REPROCHERA
DE S’ÊTRE SENTI COUCI COUÇA


QUAND NOUS SERONS LÀ-HAUT
LASSÉ DES VAINS COMBATS
ON VERRA TOUT DE HAUT
NOS VIES EN CONTREBAS

QUAND NOUS SERONS LÀ-HAUT
COMPLÈTEMENT BABA
POUSSANT DES AH DES OH
FACE AU SUBLIME PANORAMA

LA-HAUT (Lyrics)

ÇA TANGUE ÇA TANGUE MESSIEURS DAMES ÇA TANGUE
LES NUAGES S’AMONCELLENT A PYONGYANG
ENTRE LES GANGSTAS L’ANTIGANG
LA CLAQUE NOUS REVIENT EN BOOMERANG

ÇA TANGUE PRETTY BABY ÇA TANGUE
AU COIN DE LA RUE ÇA HARANGUE
LE FUTUR NOUS TIRE LA LANGUE
RETOUR À LA CASE BIG BANG

ÇA TANGUE ÇA TANGUE MESSIEURS DAMES ÇA TANGUE
COMME UN GOUT DE BRULÉ SUR LA LANGUE
COMME QUI DIRAIT UN VER DANS LA MANGUE
L’HISTOIRE NOUS REVIENT EN BOOMERANG

ÇA TANGUE BABY BABY ÇA TANGUE
LES NUAGES S’AMONCELLENT A PYONGYANG
ENTRE LES GANGSTAS L’ANTIGANG
LES BALLES NOUS REVIENNENT EN BOOMERANG

ÇA TANGUE ÇA TANGUE MESSIEURS DAMES ÇA TANGUE
KAFKA ORWELL FRITZ LANG
LE BON DIEU NOUS TIRE LA LANGUE
RETOUR À LA CASE BIG BANG

A BUCK ON THE SIDEWALK (Lyrics)
