Re: Dedicate a Song to Benedict

The first few phrases of the Danish tune I'm listening to me just made me think about Ben, or well Sherlock... eventhough it is about the trouble of the young female singer trying to get her US girlfriend to the country... 

But it starts like this:


"Hey Vanessa" by Sys Bjerre


"You play the violin and then you have the softest skin, and with your hand in mine I know the parachute will deploy..."

Re: Dedicate a Song to Benedict

Well, it's not the most happy song in the world, but this one makes me think of Benedict.

And then I have this one (giggles). It was in a fan video so now I can't listen to it without thinking of Ben...

Re: Dedicate a Song to Benedict

I've discovered some really good songs I'd not heard of before through fan vids.

Perfect song for Benedict - Laura Branigan, "Self-control":

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

Re: Dedicate a Song to Benedict

Once again I have a Danish song to dedicate to him... I just discovered it today and as well as a picture of Ben's silly dancing with his phone at the Aussie Con posted in the picture thread

The song is called "Dans Din Idiot" (Dance, you idiot) by Shaka Loveless (Here, idiot is meant in the lovelist way)
http://youtu.be/nyJrFmtuVNs

losely translated the lyrics go

"So let me see you jump, jump,
When he does his things
for we live in a world controlled by money
And it's as true as the lord that you've forfeited
If you have no parts you've got a sore head

For there's so much unhealthy that hurts inside
and when you're all alone it's hard to say
you need something no man can give
It takes self respect before you can feel free

Dance, you idiot,
Because the night must die,
and nothing can save it,
Therefore, take it and run,
you idiot,
for the night must die,
one bullet, one shot, one last try...
lalalalalala

Black night, a light on an oceanview
jump in, come with me now,
you're stranded on a rief, washed up by your guilt
let it go, look forward to it

Dance, you idiot,
Because the night must die,
and nothing can save it,
Therefore, take it and run,
you idiot,
for the night must die,
one bullet, one shot, one last try...
lalalalalala

Become what the others become
Say what the others say
Let me take you away from here
riding on your imagination
sweating pure energy
Come, I have everything prepared

Dance, you idiot,
Because the night must die,
and nothing can save it,
Therefore, take it and run,
you idiot,
for the night must die,
one bullet, one shot, one last try...
lalalalalala

Throw it away
the weight it has
when the music is playing and people are clapping
It's a UFO thing with Fresh and Pharphar
It's the record stop, the record up when we push the buttons"

Re: Dedicate a Song to Benedict

For some reason the song for the Eau My Gold perfume advert makes me think of Benedict in black and white shots...

Re: Dedicate a Song to Benedict

A song that absolutely made me think of Benedict when I saw Elbow live about two weeks ago, was their wonderful "My Sad Captains":

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z617Ytq-LWI

It's just one of the most beautiful songs they've ever written and it always makes me tear up whenever I hear it.

Oh, long before
You and I were born
Others beat these benches with their empty cups
To the night and its stars
To be here, and now, and who we are

Another sunrise with my sad captains
With who I choose to lose my mind
And if it's all we only pass this way but once
What a perfect waste of time



 


                                                       You get so alone at times that it just makes sense.
                                                                                
  (Charles Bukowski)

Re: Dedicate a Song to Benedict

I was looking for Halloween music and was reminded of this song...

I feel like this sometimes...
