Safe In These Arms..

"Here in these arms
Our history began
Before there was you
There was thirst in my heart
Look at my lips, you will see
I have drunk from the river
That flows to the sea
Of our love
Safe in these arms,
That's where I want to be
Safe from the harm, in these arms
That's where I want to be
If I may die
Let it be here with you
For here with you
I shall surely be safe
Safe from the hate, from the lies
From the vultures of Christ
I need no Gods
I have no fears, I have you
Safe in these arms,
That's where I want to be
Safe from the harm, in these arms
That's where I want to be
Never let me, never let me
Say you'll never let me go
Say you'll never let me
Say you'll never let me go
Say you'll...
Take me in your arms
And say you'll never let me go
Take me in your arms and hold me
Say you'll never let me go"

Arabian Prince

In the late 70s a teenager named Kim Nazel was spinnin’ some of the most floorkilling records around at hi skool dances in Inglewood, Los Angeles making boys and girls go nuts! He soon listened to “Numbers” of Kraftwerk, he bought his first Roland TR-808 and named himself Arabian Prince. In 1988 Street Kut released Arabian Prince’s 12inch single titled “Situation hot”.

Le Pamplemousse “Le Spank”

A few months ago I decided to make my diggin’ habits a little bit spicier by searching for records with tasty butts on their covers. So when I bumped into Le Pamplemousse 1977 album Le Spank for AVI there wasn’t any second thought. While looking at the back cover my surprise was growing bigger and bigger. Written, arranged and produced by les enfants terrible of disco scene, Laurin Rinder and Mike Lewis, with the addition of The Jones Girls on vocals Le Spank became an underground must have. Among the tracks of the album there was one of my favorites, the Roy Ayers inspired Get your boom boom (around the room room). Enjoy!

Let's Drink!!

 "Hey mister bartender come here I want another drink and I want it now.My baby she gone, she been gone two night I ain't seen my baby since night before last One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer And then I sit there, gettin' high, mellow Knocked out, feeling good and by the time I looked on the wall at the old clock on the wall By that time, it was ten thirty daddy I looked down the bar, at the bartender He said, "Now what do you want Johnny?" One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer"

Ok after these lyrics i think i'm stoned..That's why i will post it with french lyrics so only the French guys get lyric-stoned!!!
