Mark Knopfler - What it is

The Drinking Dens Are Spilling Out
There's Staggering In The Square
There's Lads And Lasses Falling About
And A Crackling In The Air
Down Around The Dungeon Doors
The Shelters And The Queues
Everybody's Looking For
Somebody's Arms To Fall Into
And It's What It Is
It's What It Is Now

There's Frost On The Graves And The Monuments
But The Taverns Are Warm In Town
People Curse The Government
And Shovel Hot Food Down
The Lights Are Out In City Hall
The Castle And The Keep
The Moon Shines Down Upon It All
The Legless And Asleep

And It's Cold On The Tollgate
With The Wagons Creeping Through
Cold On The Tollgate
God Knows What I Could Do With You
And It's What It Is
It's What It Is Now

The Garrison Sleeps In The Citadel
With The Ghosts And The Ancient Stones
High Up On The Parapet
A Scottish Piper Stands Alone
And High On The Wind
The Highland Drums Begin To Roll
And Something From The Past Just Comes
And Stares Into My Soul

And It's Cold On The Tollgate
With The Caledonian Blues
Cold On The Tollgate
God Knows What I Could Do With You
And It's What It Is
It's What It Is Now
What It Is
It's What It Is Now

There's A Chink Of Light, There's A Burning Wick
There's A Lantern In The Tower
Wee Willie Winkie With A Candlestick
Still Writing Songs In The Wee Wee Hours
On Charlotte Street I Take
A Walking Stick From My Hotel
The Ghost Of Dirty Dick
Is Still In Search Of Little Nell
And It's What It Is
It's What It Is Now
Oh It's What It Is
What It Is Now

Super8 Tab feat Alyna - Perfect Day (Gareth Emery Remix)


I wondered if you noticed
As I pondered on emotions I sold
I wanted recognition
When I planned a low position in life

So I talk to all the angels
And I pray that they will listen to why
Why I need the understanding
Why I need the non demanding divide

This is not illusion
I don’t need intrusion
Let me have my perfect day

These feelings of elation
There’s comedy in patience
Now let me have my perfect day

I was born to break the silence
Anti war and violence, pro life
When they say the day is over
I have theory that is older than time

And there are plans that are above us
And we can demand that lovers unite
Like we are floating on an ocean
I am calmed by your devotion tonight

This is not illusion
I don’t need intrusion
Let me have my perfect day

These feelings of elation
There’s comedy in patience
Now let me have my perfect day

San Vs Wendel Kos - Kiss Of Life (Ibiza Sunrise Mix)

After all the pain it caused me
After all the rain it brought on my head
After all the pain
After all the pain you're back again

Coz you remember how it could be
You remember how it once was baby
Like you're being saved
Like you're being saved and need this air

It's the kiss of life you want
Make you come alive
Bring you back to where it all first started
It's the kiss of life you want
Will your heart survive or not
Bring you back to where it all first started

Is something missing from the story?
Somewhere in between the search and rescue
After all the days
After all the days you stayed away

Coz you made a connection to me
Your connection to a life line baby
Like you're being saved
Like you're being saved to breathe again

I can feel
I can feel you come alive
I can feel
I can feel you come alive

Fabio Xb Feat Micky Vi - Make This Your Day (Vocal Mix)

Make your cut above the rest
Don’t waste time and don’t look back
Move with the flow
Self express your higher grace
Lift up from the ground
Spread your wings and let your mind

And open, wide and whole
Set the fire in your soul
Push the button now
Make this your day

Pearls of joy are in your shell
Stretch your mind behind your eyes
Don’t be afraid
Self express your higher self
Dig underground
Bring your hands right to the sky

And open, wide and whole
Set the fire in your soul
Push the button now
Make this your day

The sound is pulsing low
I’m walking on air
The lights are spinning slow
In here
Hands running through the glow
Cutting the flare
Hearts stopping for the show
In here
Make, make…
Make this your day

4 Strings Feat Ellie Lawson - Safe From Harm

Lost forgotten
In all the things I wanted to hide
My sense of connection
Gone away misplaced inside

Freezing blue with misery
Without you near
This façade won’t last
And nothing’s clear

Tonight I am home
Feel the power
In your loving arms
Letting go of all the pain
Safe from harm

Safe from harm

Lost & lonely
All I needed pushed aside
Disillusioned
Waiting for the turn of the tide

Freezing blue with misery
Without you near
This façade won’t last
And nothing’s clear

Tonight I am home
Feel the power
In your loving arms
Letting go of all the pain
Safe from harm

Mark Eteson feat. Audrey Gallagher - Breathe On My Own

You’re asking how much more I can take
When you’re the only one who knows how easily I break
We could wait for the next star to fall
But this time I want to breathe on my own

I need to breathe

And I still believe in all you are
But the world keeps turning and moving on
And standing still’s never been who we are
As the world keeps turning and moving on

On and on, we move on and on, we move on and on
And now I’m breathing on my own
Now I’m breathing
And I am breathing on my own
And I am breathing

As the world keeps turning and moving on
And I still believe in all you are
But the world keep turning and moving on
And standing still’s never been who we are
As the world keeps turning and moving on

Irish Bailout

It is a slow day in a damp little Irish town. The rain is beating down and the streets are deserted. Times are tough, everybody is in debt, and everybody lives on credit. On this particular day a rich German tourist is driving through the town, stops at the local hotel and lays a €100 note on the desk, telling the hotel owner he wants to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to pick one to spend the night. The owner gives him some keys and, as soon as the visitor has walked upstairs, the hotelier grabs the €100 note and runs next door to pay his debt to the butcher. The butcher takes the €100 note and runs down the street to repay his debt to the pig farmer. The pig farmer takes the €100 note and heads off to pay his bill at the supplier of feed and fuel. The guy at the Farmers' Co-op takes the €100 note and runs to pay his drinks bill at the pub. The publican slips the money along to the local prostitute drinking at the bar, who has also been facing hard times and has had to offer him "services" on credit. The hooker then rushes to the hotel and pays off her room bill to the hotel owner with the €100 note. The hotel proprietor then places the €100 note back on the counter so the rich traveller will not suspect anything. At that moment the traveller comes down the stairs, picks up the €100 note, states that the rooms are not satisfactory, pockets the money, and leaves town. No one produced anything. No one earned anything. However, the whole town is now out of debt and looking to the future with a lot more optimism. And that, Gentlemen, is how the bailout package works.

Azam Ali - Forty one ways to die


Forty one ways to die
One strong will to live
World's gone all awry
Faith is the battlefield

Tender, I feel
And the wheels turn
To fortify a design of free will

Forty one ways to die
One strong pain to feel
Strapped to a suicide
With just one more place to be

Tender, I feel
And the wheels turn
To fortify a design of free will

We test, we form, we fear, we tilt
We strive, we fall, we want, we kill
And we hail, and we doubt
And with all waisted
We heal, and we call
We atone kneeled here
And will stray fortified
In a windfall

Manvel Ter-Pogosyan feat Tiff Lacey - Sweet Memories (Original Mix)

Still you remain like a ghost at the door
In the back of my mind
You come to the fore
So long, so long,
Yes I long for your touch
But I know its wrong
Enough is enough.

Sweet memories, I remember
Sweet memories,
Like burning embers
Deep in secrecy
I can't forget you
Sweet Memories, I remember

Deep in secrecy,
I can't forget you
Sweet memories, I remember

Sweet Memories, I remember
Sweet memories,
Like burning embers,
Deep in secrecy
I can't forget you
Sweet Memories, I remember
