Counterfeit
Мартин Ли Гор выпустил альбом...
Правильнее сказать даже не альбом,
а сборник кавер-версий его любимых песен, то есть Counterfeit, но уже
в квадрате (первый Counterfeit был
выпущен в 1989 г.).
Cреди представленных на диске песен есть одна "традиционная", аранжировка которой, как и других, сделана самим Мартином (как свидетельствует буклет, это трек №1 -In My Time Of Dying). Первое прослушывание альбома вызывает двоякое впечатление и сформировать мнение - "хорошо" или "плохо" - довольно трудно.

1. In My Time of Dying/Traditional song
In my time of dying
I don't want nobody to mourn.
All I want for you to do is
Take my body home.
Well, well, well,
So I can die easy,
Well, well well,
Well, well, well,
So I can die easy.
Jesus gonna make up,
Jesus gonna make up,
Jesus gonna make up my dying bed.
Meet me, Jesus, meet me,
Won't you meet me in the middle of the air.
If these wings should fail me, Lord,
Won't you meet me with another pair.
Well, well, well,
So I can die easy,
Well, well well,
Well, well, well,
So I can die easy.
Jesus gonna make up,
Jesus gonna make up,
Jesus gonna make up my dying bed.
In my time of dying
I don't want nobody to cry,
All I want for you to do is
Take me when I die.
Well, well, well,
So I can die easy,
Well, well well,
Well, well, well,
So I can die easy.
Jesus gonna make up,
Jesus gonna make up,
Jesus gonna make up my dying bed.
2. Stardust by David Essex
Ah look what they've done to the rock'n'roll clown
Ah rock'n'roll clown, look he's down on the ground
Well he used to high fly, but he crashed out the sky
In a Stardust fling, hey rock'n'roll king is down
Roll on up, won't you come and take a look at me, clown
Roll on up, come one at time and see me here
See my painted-on grin as a stand up to sing
In a stardust fling, hey rock'n'roll king is down
But he's the leader of the band
And he is a lonely man
Don't you wanna take his hand
Yes you know you can
Well he used to high fly but he crashed out the sky
In a Stardust fling, hey rock'n'roll king is down
In a Stardust fling, hey rock'n'roll king is down
In a Stardust fling, hey rock'n'roll king is down (2 times)
3. I Cast A Lonesome Shadow by Lynn Russwurm
Every evening when the sun goes down I sit here in my room
And the lamplight shine it on me, projects my lonely gloom
My counterpart in agony mocks each tear that falls
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
He's always by my side at night no matter where I go
He lurks out in the darkness or in the neon's glow
He follows me across the steps and up and down the halls
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
I sit and watch the candle and the flicker of the flame
My writhing shadow twists and turns as though it is in pain
I'm trying to escape the memory my heart recalls
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
The image of a love I lost and all the things I'd planned
Are as empty as the bottle that I hold in my hand
My soul is buried in the depths of love and life's pitfalls
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
4. In My Other World by Julee Cruise/Louis Tucci
In my other world
There is no pain
And all my thoughts
Are clouds of happiness
In my other world
My heart beats red
There is no gun
Pointed at my head
And I don`t really want your kiss
My thoughts don`t make me cry
My heart`s not filled with grey sadness
My ears can`t hear you lie
And I can`t even see your face
I`ve never heard your name
My heart is still, my thoughts are calm
And light has filled this space
In my other world
My pain is bliss
I own your soul
I own your kiss
In my other world
In my other world
5. Loverman by Nick Cave
There's a devil waiting outside your door
There's a devil waiting outside your door
It is bucking and braying and pawing at the floor
And he's howling with pain and crawling up the walls
Oh yeah
There's a devil waiting outside your door
He's weak with evil and broken by the world
He's shouting your name and he's asking for more
Oh give him more, give him more
There's a devil waiting outside your door
Oh yeah
Loverman!
Since the world began
Forever, Amen
And till end of time
Take off that dress
I'm coming down
I'm your loverman
'Cause I am what I am what I am what I am
L is for LOVE, baby
O is for ONLY you that I do
V is for loving VIRTUALLY all that you are
E is for loving almost EVERYTHING that you do
R is for RAPE me
M is for MURDER me
A is for ANSWERING all of my prayers
N is for KNOWING your loverman's going
Loverman!
Till the bitter end
While empires burn down
Forever and ever and ever, Amen
Loverman!
So help me, baby
So help me
'Cause I am what I am what I am
what I am what I am
I'll be your loverman!
There's a devil crawling along your floor
There's a devil crawling along your floor
With a trembling heart, he's coming through your door
With his straining sex in his jumping paw
Oh yeah
There's a devil crawling along your floor
And he's old and he's stupid
and he's hungry and he's sore
And he's lame and he's blind
and he's dirty and he's poor
Give him more...
There's a devil crawling along your floor
Oh yeah
Loverman!
Well, here I stand
Forever, Amen
'Cause I am what I am what I am what I am
Forgive me, baby
My hands are bound
And I got no choice
No, I got no choice at all
I'll say it again
L is for LOVE
O is for O yes I do
V is for VIRTUE, so I ain't gonna hurt you
E is for EVEN if you want me to
R is for RENDER unto me, baby
M is for that which is MINE
A is for ANY old how, darling
N is for ANY old time

I got a masterplan
To take off your dress
And be your man
Well, seize the throne
Seize the mantle
Seize the crown
'Cause I am what I am what I am
what I am what I am
Your loverman!
There's a devil lying by your side
You might think he's asleep, but look at his eyes
He wants you, baby, to be his bride
There's a devil lying by your side
I'll be your loverman!
Your loverman!
To the bitter end
'Cause I am what I am what I am what I am
Your loverman!
Your loverman!
'Cause I am what I am what I am
what I am what I am
Your loverman!
6. By This River by Brian Eno/Dieter Moebius
and Hans Joachim Roedelius
Here we are
Stuck by this river,
You and I
Underneath a sky that's ever
Falling down, down, down
Ever falling down
Through the day
As if on an ocean
Waiting here,
Always failing to remember
Why we came, came, came
Wonder why we came
You talk to me
As if from a distance
And I reply
With impressions chosen
From another time, time, time
From another time
7. Lost In The Stars by Maxwell Anderson/Kurt Weill
Before Lord God made the sea and the land
He held all the stars in the palm of his hand.
And they ran through his fingers like grains of sand,
And one little star fell alone.
Then the Lord God hunted through the wide night air
For the little dark star on the wind down there.
And he stated and promised he'd take special care
So it wouldn't get lost again.
Now a man don't mind if the stars grow dim
Or the clouds blow over to darken him.
So long as the Lord God's watching over them
Keeping track how it all goes on.
Now I've been walking through the night and day
Till my eyes get weary and my head turns gray.
And sometimes it seems maybe God gone away
Forgetting the promise that we heard him say.
And we're lost out here in the stars,
Little stars, big stars, blowing through the night.
And we're lost out here in the stars.
8. Oh My Love by John Lennon/Yoko Ono
Oh my love, for the first time in my life
My eyes are wide open
Oh my lover, for the first time in my life
My eyes can see
I see the wind, oh I see the trees
Everything is clear in my heart
I see the clouds, oh I see the sky
Everything is clear in our world
Oh my love, for the first time in my life
My mind is wide open
Oh my lover, for the first time in my life
My mind can see
I feel sorrow, oh I feel dreams
Everything is clear in my heart
I feel life, oh I feel love
Everything is clear in our world
9. Das Lied Vom Einsamen Madchen by Werner
Heymann and Robert Gilbert
Sie herzte sanft ihr Spielzeug
Bevor sie es zerbrach
Und hatte eine Sehnsucht
Und wuste nicht wonach
Weil sie einsam war
Und so blond ihr Haar
Und ihr Mund so rot wie Wein
Und wer von diesem Wein trank
Konnt' nie mehr glucklich sein
Doch einer sprach im Fruhling:
«Auch du fuhlst Lust und Schmerz»
Und brach ihr tausend Rosen
Doch sie brach nur sein Herz
Weil sie einsam war
Und so blond ihr Haar
Und ihr Mund so rot wie Wein
Ja, keine konnt' so kussen
Und doch so einsam sein
Was blieb von ihrem Leben
Ein Lied, das niemand sang
Sankt Peter lies sie warten
Zwei Ewigkeiten lang
Weil sie einsam war
Und so blond ihr Haar
Und ihr Herz so tot wie Stein
Dann rief er: «Armes Kind, komm,
Sollst nie mehr einsam sein»
10. Tiny Girl by David Bowie/Iggy Pop
Well the day begins
You don't want to live
'Cause you can't believe
In the one you're with
'Cause you know her tricks
And you know her past
When she makes a face
You just have to laugh
And you feel like
Such a know-it-all
When you only want
Just a tiny girl
And you hope she'll sing.
So you turn around
Toward the tiny girls
Who have got no tricks
Who have got no past
Yeah, that's what you think
And you hope she'll sing
But she sings of greed
Like a young banshee
And she wants for this
And she wants for that
Oh, what did you think.
11. Candy Says by Lou Reed
Candy says, I've come to hate my body
And all that it requires in this world
Candy says, I'd like to know completely
What all they so discretely talk about
I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly
over my shoulder
I'm gonna watch them pass me by
maybe when I'm older
What do you think I'd see
if I could walk away from me
Candy says, I hate the quiet places
That cause the smallest taste of what will be
Candy says, I hate the big decisions
That cause endless revisions in my mind
I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly
over my shoulder
I'm gonna watch them pass me by
maybe when I'm older
What do you think I'd see
if I could walk away from me
