Parent's record bin My parents are quiet young but they don't have the same taste in music at all... My father was a dj in a discotheque before I was born and listens more to disco but also to rock. My mother (since she doesn't speak english well) mostly listens to greek music... So,these are some of their favourite songs MY FATHER'S: 1)BONEY M - Rasputin http://www.sendspace.com/file/048hs8 Classical disco song 2)BONEY M - Born to be a live http://www.sendspace.com/file/hu1aqc This is his all time favourite I think.Everytime he listens to it he starts dancing!It has a very nice and uplifting discobeat 3)QUEEN - another one bites the dust http://www.sendspace.com/file/vpwgg0 This is one of the most groovy songs of Queen.I don't know if it is the amazing bass,the drumbeat or the unique voice of Freddie Mercury but it's also one of my favourite songs too 4)GARY MOORE - Parisienne walkways http://www.sendspace.com/file/3llnf2 Even if you're not in love you will fall... One of his favourite blues songs!Gary moore has a great way to play the blues!And many people love it! MY MOTHER'S (Probably you won't understand the words,unless you speak greek,but some of them are really famous in Greece and worth a listening): 1)ANTONIS REMOS - Pou na'sai http://www.sendspace.com/file/a5btxu This is brand new but my mother is crazy for it.A very oppressive ballad with bouzouki solo... Some of the lyrics(translated): Whera am I? Stuck in a watch, Trapped in its hands, I have become a past moment... Where are you now that I'm freezing and I'm scared? I only want to be in your body, My love,do you ask where am I? Or did you just delete me? Where are you tonight that sweat is running of the walls And the memories are screaming like monsters My love,does love scare you and you didn't return? 2)PAVLOS SIDIROPOULOS - Na m'agapas http://www.sendspace.com/file/eptz9v The first greek rocker.This is his most famous ballad.EVERYBODY knows it in Greece... Some of the lyrics (translated): I write to you because I need it, at 5 a.m. The only thing left standing in the world is you... Love me, as much as you can... 3)GIANHS POULOPOULOS - Agalma http://www.sendspace.com/file/4a8tp6 My mother's favourite singer since she was a child! This songs is a classic traditional greek song with a 9/8 rhythm.Most old songs in Greece were written on this rhythm (9/8) It speaks about a man who's talking to a statue!!! Some of the lyrics... Yesterday around midnight I took a walk in the little square that I first saw you A statue that saw me recognized me and didn't refuse to listen to my pain! 4)GIANNHS POULOPOULOS - Kamaroula mia stalia http://www.sendspace.com/file/8rjtaj Also a famous greek song.It's somehow happy Some lyrics: Forget everything now it's love's time Put the key in the lock P.S:That's my first post! I hope I have done everything alright. If not,please correct me! Current Mood: energetic (3 Comments |Comment on this)
