Today's contributions from the Wicked One are some past and more recent sounds of Nashville, TN but NOT country music lol


WHITE ANIMALS - A fan favorite on the College Circuit in the 1980s. Although they never made it big time they are still followed by their fans today. They opened shows for the Kinks, The Ramones and Talking Heads. Source: https://www.allmusic.com/artist/white-animals-mn0001252067

JASON AND THE SCORCHERS - Well they are cowpunch lol
This band formed in 1981 in Nashville and featured a past friend of mine, Perry Baggs, the drummer and backup vocalist. I worked with Perry for years at The Tennessean newspaper (when band took a break) when I was a news reporter. He even accompanied me to the office Christmas Party! This is a tribute in his loving memory. He died in 2012 from complications due to Diabetes. In 2008, the Americana Music Association honored the band with its Lifetime Achievement Award.

Hello Wicked Lady:

I love music and a particular song makes me live again when I feel weak.
The singer and composer is a famous Colombian artist, Carlos Vives.

The song "La tierra del olvido" (The Land Of Oblivion) have a universal message.

Im pretty sure that the author had inspiration in the novels of the great novelist Gabriel Garcia Marquez, specially in "100 years of solitude"

This is the link: https://youtu.be/8jtfXHadYIE

And this is the rough translation of the lyrics:

The Land Of Oblivion

Like the moon that illuminates
the paths in the night
like the leaves in the wind
like the sun that frightens the cold.
Like the earth to the rain
like the sea that awaits the river
that's how I hope for your return
to the land of oblivion.

Like a shipwreck, my fears
navigated into your gaze
the way you warn my senses
with your loving voice
with your child-like smile.
How you move my soul
how you leave me restless
how you steal my calmness.

You have the key to my heart
I love you more than my life
because without your love
I'll die.
You have the key to my heart
I love you more than my life
because without your love
I'll die.

Like the moon that illuminates
the paths in the night
like the leaves in the wind
like the sun that frightens the cold.
Like the earth to the rain
like the sea that awaits the river
that's how I hope for your return
to the land of oblivion.

You have the key to my heart
I love you more than my life
because without your love
I'll die.
You have the key to my heart
I love you more than my life
because without your love
I'll die.
I'll die
I'll die
I'll die
I'll die
I'll die.

You have the key to my heart
I love you more than my life
because without your love
I'll die.
You have the key to my heart
I love you more than my life
because without your love
I'll die.
(Oh, God!) I'll die
I'll die,
I'll die.
I'll die!
I'll die.

Dear Rigolico,

Thank you for contributing to the forum thread. I REALLY enjoyed this song! Thank you for giving me the translation. Beautiful message! I love music too. It warms the heart and soul.

Thank you for sharing! I love the Spanish language. I studied it in college, but I'm afraid all I can remember is Te quiero, Taco Bell. lol

I hope you share more! Would love to hear more Colombian music!

Wicked

Thank you, Wicked Lady.

Im glad you enjoyed the song.

Well, the translation was from a web page; I cant translate more than 5 words in English by myself.

I love my language too, but its very complicated and whimsical (but beautiful, at least for me)...well, I think that explains the many slangs of every country in the world where people speak Spanish...specially Chileans (sorry Chileans brothers, but is true; and yes, they speak Spanish...but no one is sure) XD.

If I find another good song, I post it.

Best regards!

Dear Wicked Lady:

I remember a rock song played by a Chilean group, considering that in my previous post I made jokes about the Spanish (?) of our Chilean brothers.

The name of the song is: "Hay un limite" ("There is a limit"), performed by "Aleste".

And yes, incredibly they sing...in Spanish (?)

The link have translation to English and the video: https://lyricfluent.com/lyrics/aleste_hay_un_limite_english

Cheers!

Wicked Lady:

The next song was an incredible story. A few years ago we were going to the beach with some of my daughters, the car radio was on and I heard a song that I noticed one of the girls liked, and she said to me: "Daddy, that group is from Costa Rica." I was in shock, and I just replied: "Nice song."

Inside of me I thought she was wrong. When I could I checked on the web, and it was true, it is from a group from Costa Rica.

Song: "Burning Man" performed by "Patterns": https://youtu.be/B4h0pNiSh3A

Regards!

Oooh I like foreign language songs. I love the classic Italian song Besame Mucho although I am Filipino.

Too put but a few on here. I have various musical tastes. Like many genres

Evanescence I knew about since just before the 2003 Dare Devil movie, and I discovered Lacuna Coil at OzzFest in 2004. The rest I found via Pandora and they... just hit a spot I didn't know existed.
