Partying till the New Year (uh huh)
All of my friends are here and then the time is right
Kiss me at midnight

[JC] I've been waiting for this special night
To be with you
The colors of Christmas are still shining bright
And I know what we're gonna do
[JC & ALL] Anticipating
Music is playing
[JC] The magic is in the air (the air)
All through the season
You've been the reason
I have so much love to share
[JC & ALL] Kiss me at midnight
Dancing till the morning light
Partying till the New Year
All of my friends are here and then the time is right
Kiss me at midnight
Kiss...
Kiss me at midnight
Kiss...
[JUSTIN] We've been making promises in the dark
Our resolutions
As a brand new year is about to start
And we're together
[JUSTIN & ALL] Celebrating (celebrating)
No more waiting (oooh)
Our time has arrived
Feel the beat of my heart
As the countdown starts
Just look into my eyes...oohoo
[JUSTIN & ALL] Kiss me at midnight (heyyea)
Dancing till the morning light (ohho...)
Partying till the New Year
All of my friends are here and then the time is right
Kiss me at midnight
[JC] Baby, it's New Year's Eve
A time we can believe
In makin' wishes,
Dreams come true
Just for me and you...ooh
[JUSTIN, JC, & ALL] Kiss me at midnight (heyyea)
Dancing till the morning light (oh yeah) (heyyeah)
Partying till the New Year (come on) (ohh...)
All of my friends are here and then the time is right (the time is right)
Kiss me at midnight (ooo...)

Kiss me at midnight
[JUSTIN, JC, & ALL] Kiss me at midnight (kiss me)
Dancing till the morning light (love me) (kiss me till the morning light)
Partying till the New Year...
(repeat until fade)
Together Again, 'N Sync
How can I say
That I love you
When you're so
Far away
So tell me why
You had to go
Was it me
I need to know
Oohs
What can I do
To make you see
That I'm here
Here for you
I really hope that you'll come home
So we can be
Together again
Oohs
What can I do
To make you see, girl
That I'm here
Here for you
I really hope that you'll come home, girl
So we can be
Together again
Tearin' Up My Heart, 'N Sync
It's tearin' up my heart when I'm with you
But when we are apart I feel it too
And no matter what I do I feel the pain
With or without you
Baby I don't understand
Just why we can't be lovers
Things are gettin' out of hand
Tryin' too much but baby we can't win
Let it go
If you want me girl let me know
I am down on my knees
I can't take it anymore
(CHORUS)
Baby don't misunderstand
What I'm tryin' to tell ya
In the corner of my mind
Baby it feels like we're running out of time
Let it go
If you want me girl let me know
I am down on my knees
I can't take it anymore
(CHORUS)
Tearin' up my heart and soul
We're apart I feel it too
and no matter what I do I feel the pain
with or without you
Tearin' up my heart and soul
We're apart I feel it too
and no matter what I do I feel the pain
with or with out you
It's tearin up my heart when I'm with you
(Tearin' up my heart and soul)
But when we are apart I feel it too
(We're apart I feel it too)
And no matter what I do I feel the pain
With or without you
And no matter what I do I feel the pain
With or without you
I Need Love, 'NSync
We all really need love
All I want, all I need
We all really need love
I just wanna tell you how I feel
I just wanna have a love that's real
How can I stop this burning desire
I can see that you're the one for me
You're the only one I really need
I need a love that burns like a fire
I need love, you need love
We all really need love
All I want, all I need
We all really need love
I need love
All I wanna do is give it a chance
Everybody needs a true romance
I would give anything to be with you
I will give you all the love you need
If you only give your love to me
What would I do if I were without you
(I need love) I need love
(You need love) You need love
We all really need love
(We all really need love)
(All I want, all I need)
(We all really need love)
I need love...
I need love...
I need love
(REPEAT)
Forever Young, Nsync
Let us live eternally
We can reach our desting
We will feast in harmony as one, forever young
Though they teach us sacrifice
We weill never compromise
We are here until our work is done, forever young
Forever Young...
Whatever may come falling down
Will never break our solid ground
A million hours until the game is won, forever young
Until we're learned what love can bring
Well our immortal voice will ring
And through the clouds we'll always find the sun,
Forever young
Forever Young...
We're the future of the world
With love let's take our stand
For all that we believe, forever ever young
Forever Young...
Crazy For You, 'NSync
Whenever my heart is crying out for you
Wherever I go, whatever I do
I'm crazy for you
It's not easy to be alone
It's not easy to fall in love
Every night I just get down and pray
That you come my way, yeah
I've never had a girl like you
(Girl like you)
I've never known what love could do
Wish you'd come, baby and set me free
I can't let it be, yeah
Wherever I go, whatever I do
Whenever my heart is crying out for you
Wherever I go, whatever I do
I'm crazy for you
I wanna, I wanna rock with you
I'm gonna, I'm gonna make it true
I wanna, I wanna rock with you
I'm crazy for you
I'm waiting for the phone to ring
And all the wonder love should bring
All the things, darling I left behind
Please give me a sign
A little smile would light my life
And a single touch would blow my mind
Girl you know, by now you've got to be mine
Till the end of time
Wherever I go, whatever I do
Whenever my heart is crying out for you
Wherever I go, whatever I do
I'm crazy for you
Wherever I go, whatever I do
My heart is crying out for you
Wherever I go (wherever I go)
Whatever I do, I'm crazy for you
I wanna, I wanna rock with you
I'm gonna, I'm gonna make it true
I wanna, I wanna rock with you
I'm crazy for you
Ooh, and I will know
Wherever I go, whatever I do
My heart is crying out for you
Wherever I go (wherever I go)
Whatever I do
Wherever I go, whatever I do
(Wherever I go, whatever I do)
My heart is crying out for you
Wherever I go (wherever I go)
Whatever I do, I'm crazy for you
Wherever I go, whatever I do
My heart is crying out for you
Wherever I go (wherever I go)
Whatever I do, I'm crazy for you
Superfly, 4 Non Blondes
on a chance to
make it right
Every word you say
makes my heart go bang bang
'cause it sounds so nice
Well I've been alone
and you've been a fool
oh baby don't you know that's the golden rule
Well I've been alone
and you've been a fool
oh baby don't you know that's the way I like it
Let me take you away
on the wings of my Superfly
Maybe we'll celebrate
all the room in the sky
Heaven knows we'll go boom boom boom
What can I do
to get you in the mood
baby I give up
I'm so misused
and you're so confused
it's such a drag
Well I've been alone
and you've been a fool
oh baby don't you know that's the golden rule
Well I've been alone
and you've been a fool
oh baby don't you know that's the way I like it
Let me take you away
on the wings of my Superfly
Maybe we'll celebrate
all the room in the sky
Heaven knows we'll go boom boom boom
Here I am and I'm waitin'
on a chance to
make it right
Do I turn you on
or maybe do I turn you off
could you just decide
Well I've been alone
and you've been a fool
oh baby don't you know that's the golden rule
Well I've been alone
and you've been a fool
oh baby don't you know that's the way I like it
Let me take you away
on the wings of my Superfly
Maybe we'll celebrate
all the room in the sky
Heaven knows we'll go boom boom boom
Pleasantly Blue, 4 Non Blondes
Till I realize the moon
It seems so distant yet I felt it pass right through
And I see what I see a new world is over me
So I'll reach up to the sky
And pretend that I'm a spaceman
In another place and time
I guess I'm looking for a brand new place
Is there a better life for me?
Subtle wind blow me gone
Let me rest upon your move
I trust I'll end up sleeping cradled in my doom
And I feel what I feel
I can't grasp what is not real
So I'll get myself real high
And imagine I'm a spaceman
In another place and time
I guess I'm looking for a brand new place
Is there a better life for me?
I remember in my mind
They say I'm daydreaming
Is it all that it seems
Or am I all the things I'm looking for? ?ooh!
And I see what I see a new world is over me
And I'll reach up to the sky
And imagine I'm a spaceman
In another place and time
I guess I'm looking for a brand new place
I remember living in a different life
Is there a better life for me?
Calling all the people, 4 Non Blondes
the view that I see
is a child and mama
and the child is begging for money
tell me why, tell me why
the woman is blind
is she so broke
the kid's dealing crime
it's such a beautiful city,
but the word is burning it down
I go to my room to turn on the TV
I sit myself down
and I start laughing hard
'cause this man he's asking for money
he say "if you send me lots of cash
I'll send you stuff to make you rich fast"
it's such a wonderful country
but the man he's burning it down
yea yea yea yea yea yea
yea yea yea yea yea
it's such a wonderful country
but the man he's burning it down
yea yea yea yea yea yea
yea yea yea yea yea
and it's burning down
and it's called the US of A
One day I'm going to have lots of money
but I'll have to give it up for this rich society
oh please Mr. President will you lend me a future
'cause you'll just get it back
from the little blind woman
with the kid on the corner
and the people full over, doin' crack
yea yea yea yea yea yea
yea yea yea yea yea
it's such a wonderful country
but the man he's burning it down
yea yea yea yea yea yea
yea yea yea yea yea
and it's burning down
and it's called the US of A
I'm walking outside on a sunny day
with no one around
and I wonder what's wrong
then I hear this loud piercing siren
oh my God the bomb has just dropped
and everybody climbed right on top screaming
what a wonderful country
but the man he's burning it down
he's burning it down
yea yea yea yea yea yea
yea yea yea yea yea
it's such a wonderful country
but the man he's burning it down
yea yea yea yea yea yea
yea yea yea yea yea
and it's burning down
and it's called the US of A
Here I Go Again, Whitesnake
I don't know where I'm goin
but I sure know where I've been
hanging on the promises in songs of yesterday.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again.
Tho' I keep searching for an answer
I never seem to find what I'm looking for.
Oh Lord, I pray you give me strength to carry on
'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.
Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time.
Just another heart in need of rescue
waiting on love's sweet charity
an' I'm gonna hold on for the rest of my days
'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.
Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a hobo I was born to walk alone.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again,
here I go again, here I go.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time.
Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone
'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.
Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again,
here I go again, here I go,
here I go again
The Deeper The Love, Whitesnake

LOOKING OVER YOUR SHOULDER.

Burn, The Cure
Whispering me away from you
"Don't wake at night to watch her sleep
You know that you will always lose
This trembling
Adored
Tousled bird mad girl... "
But every night I burn
But every night I call your name
Every night I burn
Every night I fall again
"Oh don't talk of love" the shadows purr
Murmuring me away from you
"Don't talk of worlds that never were
The end is all that's ever true
There's nothing you can ever say
Nothing you can ever do... "
Still every night I burn
Every night I scream your name
Every night I burn
Every night the dream's the same
Every night I burn
Waiting for my only friend
Every night I burn
Waiting for the world to end
"Just paint your face" the shadows smile
Slipping me away from you
"Oh it doesn't matter how you hide
Find you if we're wanting to
So slide back down and close your eyes
Sleep a while
You must be tired... "
But every night I burn
Every night I call your name
Every night I burn
Every night I fall again
Every night I burn
Scream the animal scream
Every night I burn
Dream the crow black dream
Dream the crow black dream...
Lullaby, The Cure
softly through the shadow of the evening sun
stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead
looking for the victim shivering in bed
searching out fear in the gathering gloom and
suddenly!
a movement in the corner of the room!
and there is nothing i can do
when i realise with fright
that the spiderman is having me for dinner tonight!
quietly he laughs and shaking his head
creeps closer now
closer to the foot of the bed
and softer than shadow and quicker than flies
his arms are all around me and his tongue in my eyes
"be still be calm be quiet now my precious boy
don't struggle like that or i will only love you more
for it's much too late to get away or turn on the light
the spiderman is having you for dinner tonight"
and i feel like i'm being eaten
by a thousand million shivering furry holes
and i know that in the morning i will wake up
in the shivering cold
and the spiderman is always hungry...
Boys Don't Cry, The Cure
If I thought that it would change your mind
But I know that this time
I've said too much
Been too unkind
I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try and
Laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
'cause boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
I would break down at your feet
And beg forgiveness
Plead with you
But I know that
It's too late
And now there's nothing I can do
So I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try to
laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
'cause boys don't cry
I would tell you
That I loved you
If I thought that you would stay
But I know that it's no use
That you've already
Gone away
Misjudged your limits
Pushed you too far
Took you for granted
I thought that you needed me more
Now I would do most anything
To get you back by my side
But I just
Keep on laughing
Hiding the tears in my eyes
'cause boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
Dreams, The Cranberries
Oh my life is changing everyday
Every possible wayThough my dreams, it’s never quite as it seems
Never quite as it seems
I know I felt like this before
But now I’m feeling it even more
Because it came from you
Then I open up and see
The person fumbling here is me
A different way to be
I want more, impossible to ignore
Impossible to ignore
They’ll come true, impossible not to do
Impossible not to do
Now I tell you openly
You have my heart so don’t hurt me
For what I couldn’t find
Talk to me amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You’re everything to me
Oh my life is changing everyday
Every possible way
Though my dreams, it’s never quite as it seems
’cause you’re a dream to me
Dream to me

Green Tinted Sixties Mind, Mr. Big
She just woke up, but she's still tired
Is that the telephone ringing?
The curtains can't hold back the light
That's reaching into her dreams
Down in her heart
If it had fingers, it'd be tearing it apart
You be lookin' groovy
In a sixties movie
Maybe tell the press you died
Little legend baby
Try your very best to hide
A green-tinted sixties mind
She keeps some memories locked away
But they are always escaping
neclgect won't make them fade away
They're reaching into her dreams
Down in her heart
Don't need fingers to be tearing it apart
Gotta face the day
There is no other way
To clear the fog inside your mind
Fill it up with dreams
But all that you can seem to find
A green-tinted sixties mind
Hangin' out with Janis
Movin' to Atlantis
Could've made it if you tried
What's the point of force
It's easy as a horse to ride
A green-tinted sixties mind
You be looking groovy
In a sixties movie
Maybe tell the press you died
Little legend baby
Try your very best to hide
A green-tinted sixties mind
-U can't hide-

Nothing But Love, Mr. Big
The things we say
came true today
Coz we listened to our hearts
No one but you will ever do
Our search is through
But our journey's just beginning
Nothing but love can last forever
Nothing but love will start
To mend the place inside your heart
That needed healing
Nothing but love can last forever
Nothing but love will start
To make your head spin round and round
You know you're feeling love
Nothing but love
Nothing but love
Can't read your mind
Lord knows I'm tryin'
But in your eyes
I see everything you need to know
Nothing to do but follow you
My aim is true I could never ask for any more
And if you walk away
You know that I will follow
To steal back your broken heart
At least until tomorrow
Because whatever comes today
Beside you I can't hide you're the one
Nothing but love can last forever
Nothing but love will start
To mend the place inside your heart
That needed healing
Nothing but love can last forever
Nothing but love will start
To make your head spin round and round
You know you're feeling
Nothing but love could hold our world together
Nothing but love can start
To let us hear the sounds above
that have been screaming love
Nothing but love
To Be With You, Mr. Big
Show me what he's done to you
Stand up little girl
A broken heart can't be that bad
When it's through, it's through
Fate will twist the both of you
So come on baby come on over
Let me be the one to show you
I'm the one who wants to be with you
Deep inside I hope you feel it too
Waited on a line of greens and blues
Just to be the next to be with you
Build up your confidence
So you can be on top for once
wake up who cares about
Little boys that talk too much
I've seen it all go down
Your game of love was all rained out
So come on baby, come on over
Let me be the one to hold you
Chorus
Why be alone when we can be together baby
You can make my life worthwhile
And I can make you start to smile
When it's through, it's through
Fate will twist the both of you
So come on baby come on over
Let me be the one to show you
Just Take My Heart, Mr. Big
I can't imagine living my life after you're gone
Wondering why so many questions have no answers
I keep on searching for the reason why we went wrong
Where is our yesterday
You and I could use it right now
But if this is goodbye
Just take my heart when you go
I don't have the need for it anymore
I'll always love you, but you're too hard to hold
Just take my heart when you go
Here we are about to take the final step now
I just can't fool myself, I know there's no turing back
Face to face it's been endless conversation
But when the love is gone you're left with nothing but talk
I'd give my everything
If only I could turn you around
But if this is goodbye
Just take my heart when you go
I don't have the need for it anymore
I'll always love you but you're too hard to hold
Just take my heart when you go
Walking Alone, Green Day
Only this time I think I stuck my foot in my mouth.
Thinking out loud and acting in vain.
Knocking over anyone that stands in my way.
Sometimes I need to apologize.
Sometimes I need to admit that I ain't right.
Sometimes I should just keep my mouth shut, or only say hello.
Sometimes I still feel I'm walking alone.
Walk on eggshells on my old stomping ground,
yet there's really no one left, that's hanging around.
Isn't that another familiar face?
Too drunk to figure out they're fading away.
Basket Case, Green Day
To listen to me whine
About nothing and everything
All at once
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone
No doubt about it
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Am I just stoned?
I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams
She says it's lack of sex
That's bringing me down
I went to a whore
He said my life's a bore
So quit my whining cause
It's bringing her down
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Uh, yuh, yuh, ya
Grasping to control
So I better hold on
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Am I just stoned?
When I Come Around, Green Day
all the way across town
You've been searching for that someone,
and it's me out on the prowl
As you sit around feeling sorry for yourself
Well, don't get lonely now
And dry your whining eyes
I'm just roaming for the moment
Sleazin' my back yard so don't get so uptight
you been thinking about ditching me
No time to search the world around
Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around
I heard it all before
So don't knock down my door
I'm a loser and a user so I don't need no accuser
to try and slag me down because I know you're right
So go do what you like
Make sure you do it wise
You may find out that your self-doubt means nothing
was ever there
You can't go forcing something if it's just
not right
No time to search the world around
Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around
When I come around
No time to search the world around
Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around
When I come around
When I come around
When I come around
Welcome To Paradise, Green Day
Can you hear me whining?
It's been three whole weeks
Since that I have left your home
This sudden fear has left me trembling
Cause now it seems that I am out here on my own
And I'm feeling so alone
Pay attention to the cracked streets
And the broken homes
Some call it the slums
Some call it nice
I want to take you through
a wasteland I like to call
my home
Welcome To Paradise
A gunshot rings out at the station
Another urchin snaps and left dead on his own
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
For some strange reason it's now
Feeling like my home
And I'm never gonna go
Pay attention to the cracked streets
And the broken homes
Some call it slums
Some call it nice
I want to take you through
a wasteland I like to call
my home
Welcome To Paradise
Dear mother,
Can you hear me laughing
It's been six whole months since
Since that I have left your home
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
For some strange reason it's now
Feeling like my home
And I'm never gonna go
Pay attention to the cracked streets
And the broken homes
Some call it the slums
Some call it nice
I want to take you through
a wasteland I like to call
my home
Welcome To Paradise
King For A Day, Green Day
My mother went to the grocery store.
Went sneaking through her bedroom door to find something in a size 4.
Sugar and spice and everything nice wasn't made for only girls.
GI Joe in panty hose is making room for the one and only.
King for a day, princess by dawn.
King for a day in a leather thong.
King for a day, princess by dawn.
Just wait 'til all the guys get a load of me.
My daddy threw me in therapy.
He thinks I'm not a real man.
Who put the drag in the drag queen.
Don't knock it until you tried it
I Fought The Law, Green Day
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I needed the money 'cause I had none
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I miss my baby and I feel so sad
I guess my race is run
Well she's the best girl that I ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the
Robin' people with a six gun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I miss my baby and I miss my fun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I miss my baby and I feel so sad
I guess my race is run
Well she's the best girl that I ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the
I fought the law and the law won [x7]
I fought the law and the
She, Green Day
She screams in silence
A sullen riot penetrating through her mind
Waiting for a sign
To smash the silence with the brick of self-control
[Chorus:]
Are you locked up in a world
That's been planned out for you?
Are you feeling like a social tool without a use?
Scream at me until my ears bleed
I'm taking heed just for you
She...
She's figured out
All her doubts were someone else's point of view
Waking up this time
To smash the silence with the brick of self-control
[Chorus]
EHHHHHH,AHHHHHHHHHH!!!
[Chorus]
Pulling Teeth, Gree Day
Broken bones and nasty cuts
Accidents will happen
But this time I can't get up
She comes to check on me
Making sure I'm on my knees
After all she's the one
Who put me in this state
Is she ultra-violent?
Is she disturbed?
I better tell her that I love her
Before she does it all over again
Oh god, she's killing me!!!
For now I'll lie around
hell, that's all I can really do
She takes good care of me
Just keep saying my love is true
Is she ultra-violent?
Is she disturbed?
I better tell her that I love her
Before she does it all over again
Oh god, she's killing me!!!
Looking out my window for
Someone that's passing by
No one knows I'm locked in here
All I do is cry
For now I'll lie around
hell, that's all I can really do
She takes good care of me
Just keep saying my love is true
Give Me Novacaine, Green Day
Bitter sweet migraine in my head
Its like a throbbing tooth ache of the mind
I can't take this feeling anymore
[Chorus:]
Drain the pressure from the swelling,
This sensations overwhelming,
Give me a long kiss goodnight
and everything will be alright
Tell me that I won't feel a thing
So give me Novacaine
Out of body and out of mind
Kiss the demons out of my dreams
I get the funny feeling, that's alright
Jimmy says it's better than air,
I'll tell you why
[Chorus]
Oh Novacaine
[Chorus:]
Drain the pressure from the swelling,
This sensations overwhelming,
Give me a long kiss goodnight
and everything will be alright
Tell me Jimmy I won't feel a thing
So give me Novacaine
American Idiot, Green Day
Don't want a nation under the new media
And can you hear the sound of hysteria?
The subliminal mind fuck America.
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.
Well maybe I'm the faggot America.
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda.
Now everybody do the propaganda.
And sing along to the age of paranoia.
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.
Don't want to be an American idiot.
One nation controlled by the media.
Information age of hysteria.
It's calling out to idiot America.
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.
Wake Me Up When September Ends, Green Day
The innocent can never last
wake me up when September ends
like my father's come to pass
seven years has gone so fast
wake me up when September ends
here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are
as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when September ends
summer has come and passed
the innocent can never last
wake me up when September ends
ring out the bells again
like we did when spring began
wake me up when September ends
here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are
as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when September ends
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when September ends
like my father's come to pass
twenty years has gone so fast
wake me up when September ends
wake me up when September ends
wake me up when September ends
Patience, Guns 'N Roses
I'm still alright to smile
Girl I think about you ev'ry day now
Was a time when I wasn't sure
But you set my mind at ease
There is no doubt
You're in my heart now
Said woman take it slow
It'll work itself out fine
All we need is just a little patience
Said sugar make it slow and
We come together fine
All we need is just a little patience
Patience

'Cause I'd rather be alone
If I can't have you right now I'll wait, dear
Sometimes I get so tense
But I can't speed up the time
But you know, love there's
One more thing to consider
Said woman take it slow
And things will be just fine
You and I'll just use a little patience
Said sugar take the time
'Cause the lights are shining bright
You and I've got what it takes to make it
We won't fake it
Aah, never break it

I've been walkin' the streets to night
just trying to get it right

You know I don't like being stuck in a crowd
And the streets don't change, but baby the names
I ain't got time for this game
'Cause I need you,
yeah but I need you,
oh I need you,
woh I need you,
ooh This time
Smooth Operator, Sade
We move in space with minimum waste and maximum joy.
City lights and business nights.
When you require streetcar desire for higher heights.
No place for beginners or sensitive hearts
When sentiment is left to chance.
No place to be ending but somewhere to start.
No need to ask.
He's a smooth operator,
smooth operator,
smooth operator,
smooth operator.
Coast to coast, LA to Chicago, western male.
Across the north and south, to Key Largo, love for sale.
Face to face, each classic case.
We shadow box and double cross,
Yet need the chase.
A license to love, insurance to hold.
Melts all your memories and change into gold.
His eyes are like angels but his heart is cold.
No need to ask.
He's a smooth operator,
smooth operator,
smooth operator,
smooth operator.
Coast to coast, LA to Chicago, western male.
Across the north and south, to Key Largo, love for sale.
Smooth operator,
smooth operator,
smooth operator,
smooth operator,
smooth operator...

I do think you fit this shoe
I do what you have a clue
I’ll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can’t see you every night free

I’m standing in your light
I do hope you have the time
I do pick up number two
I do keep a date with you

I can’t see you every night free
I do, I do, I do

Demi Cintaku, Dian Pramana Putra
Untuk dirimu
Sengaja kutulis lagu
Biar lepas rasa rinduku
*
aku ingin kau selalu
ingat diriku, di sepanjang waktumu
( aku ingin kau selalu menemaniku ..
walau apa pun terjadi )
aku ingin kau selalu
ada di hati
sampai akhir nanti
sengaja aku bernyanyi
untuk dirimu
sejuta nada tercipta
demi cinta, demi cintaku
bridge :
alunan simphoni
menghias indah mimpiku
semoga cinta abadi
Lilin Lilin Kecil, Chrisye
mentari tua lelah berpijar
ooo...manakala
bulan dan bumi
enggan tersenyum
berkerut kerut
tiada berseri
tersendat sendat
merayap...
dalam kegelapan
hitam kini ...
hitam nanti....
gelap kini....
akankah berganti
engkau lilin lilin kecil
sanggupkah kau mengganti
sanggupkah kau memberi
seberkas cahaya....
engkau lilin lilin kecil
sanggupkah kau berpijar
sanggupkah kau menyegar
seisi dunia...
Sabda Alam, Chrisye
Tanda buana membuka hari
Dan embun pun memudar
Menyongsong fajar
Sejenak ku terlena
Akan kehidupan yang fana
Nikmat alam semesta
Nusa indah nirmala
Serasa pagi tersenyum mesra
Tertiup bayu membangkit sukma
Adakah esok kan tersenyum jua
Memberi hangatnya sejuta rasa
Sabda alam, menghanyutkan suasanaku
Kadangkala kebosanan mencekam jiwa
Sabda alam, berbuah kodrat tak tertahan
Rasa cinta, rasa nista berpadu satu
Supergirl, D'cinnamons
it does suppose to be like this
I’m not what I used to be
soon that I can’t breath
I feel that I can’t be my self
strong when I’m alone
I’d try to get you out of my mind
and many times I try to step on the ground
but shades of you, taste of you, smell of you
spinning in my head…
goin' crazy just because of you
# take me out of here… 2x
I'm not my self, not I used to be
yes, I’m strong. I used to be a supergirl
well… I just miss being me
so long, I’ve blame my self dreamin but you
I don’t want to stop, and I hate to be alone
just tell me, where you are
I’m looking for you at many places
never bored askin people ’bout where you are
hey don’t you dare treat me like
you don’t know me
now you’re out of my world, don’t know
where to find you
back to #
ooo… that strong little girl
ooo… I don’t wanna be alone
you control me, you control me, ohh..
you control me ….
the way you are makes me don’t wanna go
won’t be alone anymore
you control me…
Tak Takut, D'cinnamons
saat-saat bersamamu
berkali-kali ku kembali
yang ada hanya ku cemburu
chorus
tak mau lagi tak mau lagi
jalan denganmu
tak ingin lagi tak ingin lagi
aku denganmu
ku tak takut kehilanganmu
ku tak takut sendiri lagi
angan-anganku berlari
jauh-jauh darimu
lama-lama kusadari
aku bukanlah untukmu
ku tak tahu mencintai
sebegitu sulitnya
Chorus:
tak ingin lagi.. tak ingin lagi..
aku denganmu
ku tak takut kehilanganmu
ku tak takut sendiri lagi
ku tak takut kehilanganmu
ku tak takut sendiri lagi..
Seandainya, Ari Laso
cinta bisa hadir tanpa disadari
dengan perlahan tapi pasti
merasuk di jiwa ini
perasaan ini
takkan pernah aku mengerti
sejenak khilafku
lupakan dia yg miliki diriku
reff: seandainya cinta ini tak pernah terjadi
takkan ada air mata dan hati perih terluka
saat cinta menyentuh hati

sejenak khilafku
lupakan dia yg miliki diriku

Cinta Terakhir, Ari Laso
setinggi langit diangkasa t’lah ku arungi
sepanjang kehidupanku aku mencari
sebentuk kelembutan hati cinta sejati

hanya dihatimu akan kulabuhkan hidupku
karena kau lah cinta terakhir ku
berjuta kejora terangi gelap malamku
tetap tak seindah cahaya mata hatimu
Mengejar Matahari, Ari Laso
Cerita tentang anak manusia
Menantang hidup bersama
Mencoba menggali makna cinta
Tetes air mata… Mengalir di sela derai tawa
Selamanya kita… Tak akan berhenti

Tajamnya pisau takkan sanggup
Koyakkan cinta antara kita
Menembus ruang dan waktu
Menyatu di dalam jiwaku

Blue Night, MLTR
Lately you have been asking me
if all my words are true
Don't you know I'll do anything for you
Sometimes I haven't been good to you
Sometimes I've made you cry
And I am sorry for everything
but I promise you girl
I promise you this
Chorus:
When the blue night is over my face
on the dark side of the world in space
When I'm all alone with the stars above
you are the one I love
So there's no need to worry girl
My heart is sealed for you
And no one's gonna take it away
cos' I promise you girl
I promise you this
Chorus:
When the blue night is over my face
on the dark side of the world in space
When I'm all alone with the stars above
you are the one I love
Your voice is calling to me in my dreams
My love is stronger than it's ever been
How Many Hours, MLTR
crying in the rain of falling bombs
Father he is young but deep and wise
You see the fighter inside his eyes
Hold me cover my sight
This is no paradise
Don't show me the
Evil sides of the world
Chorus:
How many hours and how many days
love is just slipping away
How many seasons and how many years
in tears
How many centuries and how many lives
in fear
People selling flowers like nothing's going on
turning their backs on a world gone wrong
Children play around I guess they found some wheels
You see them running down the naked fields
Hold me cover my sight
This is no paradise
Don't show me the
Evil sides of the world
Chorus (2X):
How many hours and how many days
love is just slipping away
How many seasons and how many years
in tears
How many centuries and how many lives live
in fear
Breaking My Heart, MLTR
counting one minute more
Noone to break the silence
Staring into the night
all alone but that's alright
It's the feeling deep inside I don't like
Chorus:
There is no excuse my friend
for breaking my heart
breaking my heart again
This is where our journey ends
Your breaking my heart again
Here in my bed
counting the words you've said
They linger in the shadows
Coming home late at night
drunk again but that's alright
It's the look in your eyes I don't like
Chorus:
There is no excuse my friend
for breaking my heart
breaking my heart again...
I'm Gonna Be Around, MLTR
to share words from deep inside us
We're in our own world spinning our wheels
but you know how I feel
since the first time I took your hand
my love for you has just been growing
You always seem to understand
You know how I am
Chorus:
I'm gonna love you til the end
I'm gonna be your very true friend
I wanna share your ups and downs
I'm gonna be around
When you're alone cause I'm away
don't be sad don't be afraid
I'm gonna turn my thoughts to you
like I always do
Chorus:
I'm gonna love you til the end
I'm gonna be your very true friend...
Catch you when you fall
Hold you when you’re down
Sharing every moment
I wanna show you all I do
I believe I’ve found a miracle
in you
Chorus:
I'm gonna love you til the end
I'm gonna be your very true friend...
Animals, MLTR
wild rivers and waterfalls
I can hear the planet call
show a little respect
Beautiful
to everything that is beautiful
and if you want to save it all
show a little respect
In the sun
Another day is born
while all the world is sleeping
there's music in the dawn
See the clouds
phantoms in the sky
changing as the wind blows
right before your eyes
Through these creations
we learn to understand
the wonder of life
we're holding in our hands
Chorus:
Animals
wild rivers and waterfalls
I can hear the planet call
show a little respect
There's a place
a green and peaceful place
a place without the borders
to divide human race
It's been created
in a billion years
don't tear it apart
don't drive the world to tears
Chorus:
Animals
wild rivers and waterfalls
I can hear the planet call
show a little respect
Beautiful
to everything that is beautiful
and if you want to save it all
show a little respect
In the name of progress
everybody's gone too far
in the name of money...
who do we think we are
Sweetest Surprise, MLTR
Never thought that I would be
the one that you would kiss
I never knew love could be so rough
But now I've found the real thing
I can't get enough
The sweetest surprise caught me tonight
Right there in your eyes while I was kissing you
So don't say that you don't love
Everything you dream of could be here
uh~uh
I used to wish, I used to dream
But now I'm living my heart's wildest fantasy
So I began to believe
Because our love is there for everyone to see
The sweetest surprise caught me tonight
Right there in your eyes while I was kissing you
So don't say that you don't love
Everything you dream of could be here
uh~uh
On and on where good things never end
woo~hoo
On and on where we never pretend
ah yeah
The sweetest surprise caught me tonight
Right there in your eyes while I was kissing you
So don't say that you don't love
Everything you dream of could be here
uh~uh
So don't say that you don't love
Everything you dream of could be here
The Actor, MLTR
'cause he can show you so much
I go to bed and tomorrow again
there's a lot of work to be done
He gives you gold and he'll promise you
the whole world will be yours
I just can tell you I love you so
even though my odds are low
Chorus:
I’m not an actor I'm not a star
and I don't even have my own car
But I'm hoping so much you’ll stay
that you will love me anyway
The dirty games and the neonshows
this is the world he knows
Watching the stars satisfies my soul
thinking of him makes me feel so cold
The fancy cars and the restaurants
you’re just so fond of the man
Sometimes I wonder if you are blind
can’t you see, he’s got dirt on his mind
Chorus:
I’m not an actor I’m not a star
and I don’t even have my own car...
25 Minutes, MLTR
she is the girl and I really want to make her mine
I'm searching everywhere to find her again
to tell her I love her
and I'm sorry 'bout the things I've done
I find her standing in front of the church
the only place in town where I didn't search
She looks so happy in her weddingdress
but she's crying while she's saying this
Chorus:
Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is
twentyfive minutes too late
Though you travelled so far boy I'm sorry your are
twentyfive minutes too late
Against the wind I'm going home again
wishing me back to the time when we were more than friends
But still I see her in front of the church
the only place in town where I didn't search
She looked so happy in her weddingdress
but she cried while she was saying this
Chorus:
Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is
twentyfive minutes too late
Though you travelled so far boy I'm sorry your are
twentyfive minutes too late
Out in the streets
places where hungry hearts have nothing to eat
inside my head
still I can hear the words she said
Chorus:
Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is
twentyfive minutes too late
Though you travelled so far boy I'm sorry your are
twentyfive minutes too late
I can still hear her say.......
Metallica Biography
It's the sort of story that scriptwriters would get laughed out of conference rooms for entering. The sort of story that illustrates perfect synchronicity between hunger, passion and time. The sort of story that only happens every 30-odd years. And the sort of story that would approximately 500 pages to do it true justice.
Metallica. A household name. The 7th biggest selling act in American history.
Who'd have thought it when, on October 28th, 1981, drummer Lars Ulrich made guitar player/singer James Hetfield an offer he couldn't refuse: "I’ve got a track saved for my band on Brian Slagel's new Metal Blade label."
The truth is, Lars didn't have a band at that time, but he did that day when James joined him. The two recorded their first track on a cheap recorder with James performing singing duties, rhythm guitar duties and bass guitar duties. Lars dutifully pounded the drums, helped with musical arrangements and acted as manager. Hetfield's friend and housemate Ron McGovney was eventually talked into taking up bass and Dave Mustaine took lead guitar duties.
The band adopted the moniker Metallica after a suggestion from Bay Area friend Ron Quintana, and they quickly began gigging in the Los Angeles area opening for bands like Saxon. Eventually recording a fully-fledged demo called No Life Til Leather, Metallica quickly saw the tape whistle around the metal tape-trading underground and become a hot commodity, with San Francisco and New York particularly receptive.
Metallica performed 2 shows in San Francisco and found the crowds friendlier and more honest than LA's "there to be seen" mob. They also caught up-and-coming band Trauma, and most importantly their bass player, Cliff Burton. Cliff refused to move to Southern California: it was enough to convince Metallica to relocate to the Bay Area, and Cliff subsequently joined Metallica.
In New York, a copy of No Life Til Leather made its way to Jon Zazula's record shop, the aptly named Metal Heaven. Zazula quickly recruited Metallica to come out east to play some shows and record an album. The band made it to New York in a stolen U-Haul. Dave Mustaine, at that point the band's guitarist, was proving to be more problematic than even these loose young chaps could handle. Thus a few weeks after arrival, Mustaine was sent packing, roadie Mark Whitakker suggesting Kirk Hammett from Bay Area thrashers Exodus. Two phone calls and one flight later, on April 1, 1983 Kirk Hammett joined Metallica.
Metallica's first album, Kill 'Em All, was released in late 1983 and some ferocious touring which saw the band's reputation soar both in the US and Europe. In 1984 they went to work with producer Flemming Rassmussen in Copenhagen at Sweet Silence Studios on their second album. 'Ride The Lightning' proved that Metallica were not some thrash-in-the-pan one trick pony, the writing and sound illustrating a growth, maturity and intensity which saw them immediately targeted by major management in QPrime, and a major label in Elektra. Both deals were done by the fall of '84 and their reputation continued to grow worldwide.
Returning to the same studios in 1985, the group recorded 'Master Of Puppets', mixing in LA with Michael Wagner and releasing in early 1986. They quickly secured a tour with Ozzy Osbourne, and that stint (plus a top 30 album chart position) saw their fan base and name take a quantum leap. What had seemed so unlikely was nearer than ever to coming true; world domination.
Part 2:
On September 27th, 1986, that dream was given the most shattering of blows. Somewhere in Sweden on an overnight drive, the bands' tour bus skidded out of control and flipped, killing Cliff Burton. His influence on the musical growth of the band was enormous. Burton combined the DIY philosophies of jamming and experimenting with an acute knowledge of musical theory, and Hetfield in particular found a lot in his playing and personality. It was impossible to imagine Metallica without him. Yet Cliff would equally not have cared for people throwing in the towel because he wasn't around. And so it was that after a brief yet intense mourning period, Lars, James and Kirk decided to fight on. Jason Newsted was chosen from over 40 auditions to be the new bassist, the Michigan-born four-stringer leaving Arizona based Flotsam & Jetsam to take on the chance of a lifetime. The quartet immediately jumped into a tour, and then quickly recorded an EP of cover tunes titled Garage Days Re-Revisited (the band literally did the dirty work in Lars' garage!).
With Jason fully established, the band went back to record their fourth full-length album, ...And Justice For All, released in August 1988. The explosion that had been threatening for sometime finally happened. It reached #6 on the US charts, received a Grammy nomination for Best Metal/Hard Rock album, the band blew headliners Van Halen off-stage during the Monsters Of Rock tour and subsequently embarked upon an enormous worldwide tour. It was even the moment they finally delved into video territory, although the footage for 'One' was most certainly the most 'anti' video video of it's era.
The band took the show back out on the road and toured extensively to all parts of the world. ...And Justice For All produced two US singles and the band's very first venture into music video for the song One.
In 1991 Metallica released the self-titled 'Black' album, and saw their popularity soar to stratospheric heights. With new producer Bob Rock, this album was a subtle departure from the previous album with shorter songs, a fuller sound and simpler arrangements. It went straight to number one all over the world, stayed there for several weeks and ended up selling in excess of 15 million copies worldwide, spawned several legitimate singles as well as earning a Grammy and MTV/ American Music Awards. The band toured for close to three years, playing a solo arena tour in 'An Evening With Metallica', with Guns N' Roses on the duos' joint-headline stadium tour, and as headliner at many festivals. It meant that by the time the fall of 1993 rolled around, the four members were shattered both physically and mentally. Save for some Summer Shed action, there was little major activity as the band allowed their real lives to catch up with their rock lives.
Nearly four years would pass before the next Metallica album saw the light. Called Load, and recorded at The Plant in Sausalito California, it was the longest Metallica album to date with 14 songs, and signaled some significant changes for the band. Produced by Bob Rock, the material was loose, powerful and eclectic, the sound thick and punchy and the image one which screamed out change and freedom from enslavement to the Black album era. So many songs came from the sessions, that a second album titled ReLoad, followed in 1997. The Load tour was spectacular, encompassing cutting-edge technology, stuntmen, two-stages and an epic two-plus hours of performance. What ever doubts people might have had were swiftly blown away, and whilst Load could never match the heights of the Black album sales wise, it became a phenomenally successful album in it's own right.
In 1998, they re-packaged all the old B-sides, covers and the two previous Garage Days sessions and ran into The Plant to slam down 11 new covers. Electric, exciting and raw, the double-disc Garage Inc. was great reminder that for all the success, Metallica's heart still lay in the music. This point was further proven in 1999, when with conductor/composer Michael Kamen, Metallica embarked upon collaboration with the San Francisco Symphony to bring new dimension to classic material. Any potential skepticism of the project was blown away by two nights in April at the Berkeley Community Theater which proved to be epic milestones in the group's history. Far from their material being compromised, the arrangements of songs such as 'Master Of Puppets' gave symphonic instruments the chance to explode into the spaces and fill them with greater, heavier power than ever before. Having recorded and filmed the shows on the off-chance it might turn out alright on the night, Metallica released the S&M double-disc and DVD in late '99, marking yet another significant chapter in a Hall Of Fame - like history.
Part 3:In the summer of 2000, Metallica took yet fresher steps towards establishing freedom from convention, proving that it was possible to assemble, and headline, your own stadium tour without promoting a record. Summer Sanitarium, Hetfield's back not withstanding, was a huge success, and anticipation grew as to when the band would hit the studio again.
The anticipation was replaced by fear at the turn of 2001 when, after several rumors, Jason Newsted departed the band. No one reason can be fairly the cause, more several long-standing issues that silently grew beyond their initial molehills. Of course many assumed that this would precipitate the break-up of the band, when of course it merely provided a conduit to newer levels of creativity and understanding.
The band realized there was much work to be done on both their personal and creative relationships, and spent the first part of 2001 investigating spontaneous avenues of discovery both in and out of the studio. They set up shop at an old ex-Army barracks called The Presidio, jammed together at length and made a decision not to rush the process of finding a new band member, opting instead to have producer Bob Rock do all bass parts.
In the middle of 2001, James Hetfield reached a place in his life where he felt rehabilitation, rest and re-focus were necessary for him to not only continue but also flourish. It meant that for many months, the members of Metallica embarked upon various levels of deeper discovery about themselves, the band and their lives both as a band and human beings. The results were to manifest themselves two-fold: when they came together again in the Spring of 2002 there was a deeper respect and appreciation for each other than ever before. And they were finally ready to make a new album, free of outside expectations, free of inner expectations and independent of anyone.
Settling into their new HQ, the band set about making 'St Anger' with Bob Rock. Those early Presidio sessions had certainly helped shape the freeform thinking and expression that was to come, but no-one, least of all the guys themselves, could've known just how fierce, raw and passionate the 'St Anger' material would turn out to be. With Rock always offering prompt and support, lyrics were written by everyone, writing was shared and performance was off the cuff, spontaneous and a 180 degree turn from the months of cut-and-paste which had become a part of the Metallirecording process in the past.
This Metallica was proud, confident, appreciative, humble, hungry, edgy, angry and also happy. Nervous? Sure, a little bit, but that too was good, yet another driver to new places and creative achievements that Metallica were enjoying.
It was in the Fall of 2002 that the band decided it was time to search for a new bassist, and after some closed auditions with personal invitees over a few months, ex-Suicidal Tendencies/Ozzy Osbourne bass player Robert Trujillo was chosen to be the new member of Metallica. Note, member. Not bassist or hired gun or replacement. But a band member. His whole demeanor, happy, relaxed, warm, enthusiastic blended with over 15 years of experience and a ferocious finger-picking style made Robert the only natural choice.
And so it is that as you read this, 'St Anger' has been completed, expectations are reaching heights that even the band cannot believe and there is the excitement of the first proper tour since Summer Sanitarium 2000. Looking at them, listening to them and seeing them, Lars, Kirk, Robert and James look like excited, eager children, men who cannot wait to be let out of then house to go and wreak aural havoc. Why? Because they can't! Metallica are about to hit a whole new level...and this is a story that will most DEFINITELY be continued...
Part 4:
…the “St.Anger” era kicked off on April 30th/May 1st with the small matter of a video shoot at San Quentin prison for the same-titled track, and continued in earnest with an MTV Icons tribute show a week later, where peers such as Korn and Limp Bizkit lined up to pay tribute to the chaps. The guys also performed live, marking the first ‘official’ live appearance of Robert Trujillo (and the last in which he wore long trousers!) as well as James Hetfield’s first public performance since his stint in rehab.
Then came the small matter of rehearsals…which Metallica chose to do in front of their loyal fan club members over 4 nights at the historic Fillmore Theatre in San Francisco…and then it was off to Europe in June for the start of what would end up being 19 months of touring, with the festival circuit taking the early brunt, Metallica successfully playing to multiple 60,000-plus crowds. “St.Anger” saw it’s release on June 5th, a raw, feral, unrestrained slab of molten Metallica stuffed with abrasion, aggression and the overspill of four years excitement, anger, frustration and ultimate fruition. For those who thought it would signal a radio-hohned band, “St.Anger” was a big, fat slap in the face. Indeed, it was actually too heavy for some! Oh, and as if to prove that this ‘new’ Metallica were not a bunch of ginger-snap panty-waists, the boys played three shows in three different Parisian clubs in one day during mid-June, each venue harboring a temperature of not less than 100 degrees.
In the US, Summer Sanitarium followed, with Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit amongst the support acts on another series of stadium sell-outs. In the meanwhile, the fervor was slowly building for ‘Some Kind Of Monster’, the documentary film by Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky about the world of Metallica between 2001 and 2003. Ostensibly slated to be about the making of an album, the filmmakers found a whole new project developing when James went into rehab, and thus having been projected as a marketing tool, the end product ended up being an incredibly revealing 2 hour 20 minute documentary.
As the Mighty Metallica continued ploughing on through the world (going back to Europe, Japan and then onto Australia in January), SKOM was debuted to enormous critical acclaim at the 2004 Sundance Independent Film Festival in Utah during January.
And the year continued in the way that you’d imagine a Metalli-year does, deciding to play (seemingly) every single town capable of hosting a major arena gig in North America (some 80-plus dates) with Godsmack in support. Result? Oh well, the usual sell-outs you’d expect for this ‘in-the-round’ two hour thirty minute set which saw no song off limits and many a fan favorite raised from retirement for a gleeful airing. (p.s….there was another Grammy in February for Best Metal Performance – ‘St.Anger’).
July saw the theatrical debut of ‘Some Kind Of Monster’ which opened to enormous critical acclaim and went on to hold it’s own in North American theaters for three months before going through Europe. And August also saw the release of the first official Metallica book, “So What! The Good, the Mad, and the Ugly”, an edited compilation of the band’s fan club magazine spanning 10 years from 1994 to 2004.
And still the ‘Madly In Anger With The World’ tour continued, selling out venues right through to it’s final date in San Jose, California on November 29, 2004…
A busy spell? By many’s standards most certainly.
By Metallica’s?
Business as usual.
They did publicly state that the majority of 2005 would be spent re-charging those creative and mental batteries, and true to their word it was a quiet year, except for two little hometown gigs with the Rolling Stones at SBC Park in November. We all knew an entire year would not pass without at least a sighting of the guys!
With batteries re-charged after the two shows with the Stones, the guys hit the studio in early 2006 to start writing a new album and were excited to announce that they would be working with a new producer, Rick Rubin. The spring and summer found them escaping from the studio once again with shows in South Africa (their first ever visit to the continent!), Europe, Japan and Korea. “The New Song” made its debut in Berlin, Germany on June 6 to give us all a little taste of things to come in 2007 with the remainder of the year scheduled for more writing and jamming.
Before they had even played 'The New Song' on that 07 summer jaunt, Metallica had decided to take a different approach to the studio, now working with Rubin. Having availed themselves of long-time twiddler Bob Rock's expertise and unifying qualities, the band wanted to see what happened when working with the decidedly hands-off Rubin. His message, when the band entered the studio in April of 07 to record, was simple; don't be afraid of your past, don't be afraid to rediscover your roots, embrace the ethic of performance over editing and get back to what Metallica essentially is. Thus began months of work with hands-on engineer Greg Fidelman handing the daily duties and Rubin overseeing and dropping in for tete-a-tetes to make sure matters remained on course. In essence, Rubin removed himself from the process as an ally to anyone and forced Metallica to find their own solutions and resolutions. He also made everyone re-record entire parts if they were unhappy to avoid a pro-tools dominated approach to creation, the idea being that it was always about the performance. Ironically, Rubin would later comment in the band's magazine So What! that the bulk of the album was recorded in a month, despite the fact it finally saw light on September 12, 2008, celebrating the release with two low ticket cost charity shows in Berlin and at London's O2 Arena.
The popular response was enormous, with the album smashing the charts at #1 and critical acclaim acknowledging that this was, indeed, the return to business that Metallica had threatened for so long. The groundwork had been laid with St.Anger and the fruit was abundant with Death Magnetic, cuts such as "The Day That Never Comes", "Broken, Beat & Scarred" and "All Nightmare Long" becoming instant fan favorites. Aside from the Death Magnetic album, on March 29, 2009 the band also saw Guitar Hero: Metallica released in North America, with international releases coming in the following couple of months. An Activision game, GH:M features 28 Metallica favorites and 21 songs from bands Metallica like, as well as guest appearances from King Diamond and Lemmy from Motorhead.
As well as all these releases, the band of course hit the road, the World Magnetic Tour starting on October 20, 2008 in Glendale, Arizona. It is a tour that keeps on giving, keeps on coming, and will flow deep into 2010, the band hoping to perhaps play in some places they've never been before. Gone, however, are the grueling days of 8-10 weeks at a time on the asphalt, instead the schedule ensures Metallica are never on the road for longer than a couple of weeks before taking at least a week off back at home. It is a highly effective solution to the problem of making the road work with family and home life, and as such the tour thus far has seen some of Metallica's best performances ever as 'burn-out' is not even a factor. Indeed, with shows selling out left, right, centre and sideways, an appearance at the legendary British site Knebworth on August 2nd as part of the Sonisphere Festival, plus three sold-out nights in Mexico City, it is fair to say that this portion of the story is most certainly to be continued...
The Frayed Ends of Sanity, Metallica
Never prosper
I have fallen prey to failure
Struggle within
Triggered again
Now the candle burns at both ends
Twisting under schizophrenia
Falling deep into dementia
Old habits reappear
Fighting the fear of fear
Growing conspiracy
Everyone's after me
Frayed ends of sanity
Hear them calling
Hear them calling me
Birth of terror
Death of much more
I'm the slave of fear, my captor
Never warnings
Spreading its wings
As I wait for the horror she brings
Loss of interest, question, wonder
Waves of fear, they pull me under
Old habits reappear
Fighting the fear of fear
Growing conspiracy
Everyone's after me
Frayed ends of sanity
Hear them calling
Hear them calling me
Into ruin
I am sinking
Hostage of a nameless feeling
Hell is set free
Flooded I'll be
Feel the undertow inside me
Height, hell, time, haste, terror, tension
Life, death, want, waste, mass depression
Old habits reappear
Fighting the fear with fear
Growing conspiracy
Myself is after me
Frayed ends of sanity
Hear them calling
Frayed ends of sanity
Hear them calling
Hear them calling me
