CHASING SHADOWS
DEEP PURPLE
SONGWRITHER: JON LORDE & IAN PAICE
COUNTRY: U. K.
ALBUM: DEEP PURPLE
LABEL: EMI
GENRE: HARD ROCK
YEAR: 1969

Deep Purple é o terceiro álbum de estúdio da banda de hard rock britânica Deep Purple, lançado em 1969 pela Tetragrammaton nos Estados Unidos, e pela EMI's Harvest Records no Reino Unido, e Polydor no Canadá e Japão.
Foi lançado durante uma crise interna que culminaria com a saída do vocalista Rod Evans e do baixista Nick Simper.
An original idea of ian's, who is heard playing drums, timbales, maracas and cowbell. Jon is playing claves. The percussion instruments were tracked on afterwards of course. The song is about one of jon's nightmares. Nicky's bass line is a gas. Jon Lord said this about the song in April 1996: The song was something to do with a nightmare I'd had and the lyrics as I wrote them were:

Chasing shadows, over my walls
with myself hardly sleeping
Dwarfs and giants, twenty feet tall
fill the room with their creeping

Sounds of breathing sharpen my ears
then they fade into nothing
Someone's laughter out in the street
fills the night with their loving

I feel the ice in my head
Running its hands through my bed
Not even dreaming I seem to be dead
Colors of yellow and colors of red
All I'm asking some secret voice
is to lead me to darkness

Jon forgot the two last lines:
I'm so tired, dawn never comes
I just hide in the shadows

JUSTE UNE PHOTO DE TOI
M. POKORA
COMPOSITEURES:  Gee Futuristic & X. PLoSIVE
PAYS: FRANCE
ALBUM: MISE A TOI
RECORD: CAPITOL
GENRE: POP
ANNÉE: 2009

Juste une photo de toi est une chanson du chanteur français M. Pokora extrait du quatrième album studio Mise à jour. Le morceau est sorti en tant que premier single de l'album le 7 juin 2010. La chanson est écrite par M. Pokora et composée par Gee Futuristic et X-Plosive, et est réalisée par Gee Futuristic. Il s'agit d'une ballade pop urbaine. La chanson est l'histoire d'un homme qui souhaite rendre la seule photo qui lui reste de son ex-compagne à celle-ci.
La critique musicale est plutôt négative, soulignant une chanson convenue et une interprétation désagréable. L'accueil commercial est lui aussi faible puisqu'elle ne se classe que 13e du classement des téléchargements de singles en France en 2010 et 44e des ventes de single en France la même année, soit le plus mauvais classement pour un single du chanteur. Le clip vidéo, réalisé par Ivan Grbovic, est tourné à Montréal au Québec pendant deux jours en mai 2010.




Si on faisait un flach back
On revenait en arrière
Pour te rappeller ce qu'tu me disais

Qu'on resterait ensemble jusqu'à redevenir poussières
Au final tout ça se n'était que des paroles en l'air
Et j'ai pas vu que tu jouais
Toute cette histoire un jeu d'échecs dont tu étais la reine
Ohohoh

J'ai l'coeur en vrac et
Si je dérape c'est
Parce que t'es parti, aussi vite que t'es arrivée
Et tu t'en es allée avec un bout de moi
Maintenant

Tout ce qu'il me reste
C'est juste une photo de toi
Juste une photo de toi
Juste une photo de toi
Tout ce que tu m'laisse
C'est juste une photo de toi
Juste une photo de toi
Juste une photo de toi
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na ) *2

La musique qui s'arrête
Le rideau qui se baisse
Et mon sourire disparait quand les lumières s'éteignent
Même les applaudissements ne pourront rien y faire
Et pour toi j'étais prêt à remuer ciel et terre
Mais t'as pas vu tout c'que j'ai fais
J'ai perdu ma bataille il n'y a plus rien à faire
Ohohoh

J'ai l'coeur en vrac et
Si je dérape c'est
Parce que t'es parti, aussi vite que t'es arrivée
Et tu t'en es allée avec un bout de moi
Maintenant

Tout ce qu'il me reste
C'est juste une photo de toi
Juste une photo de toi
Juste une photo de toi
Tout ce que tu m'laisse
C'est juste une photo de toi
Juste une photo de toi
Juste une photo de toi
( Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na ) *2

Maintenant je maudit le jour où j't'ai rencontrer
J'aurai pas dû te regarder
Si t'es plus là tout ces souvenirs qu'est-ce que j'en fais
Je veux juste t'oublier

Maintenant je maudit le jour où j't'ai rencontrer
J'aurai pas dû te regarder
Si t'es plus là tout ces souvenirs qu'est-ce que j'en fais

CHIRPY CHIRPY CHEEP CHEEP
MIDDLE OF THE ROAD
SONGWRITER: LALLY STOTT
COUNTRY: SCOTLAND
ALBUM: CHIRPY CHIRPY CHEEP CHEEP
LABEL: RCA VICTOR
GENRE: BUBBLEGAM
YEAR: 1971

"Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep" is a song recorded in early 1971 by its composer Lally Stott, and made popular later that year by Scottish band Middle of the Road for whom it was a UK number one chart hit. That version is one of the fewer than forty all-time singles to have sold in excess of 10 million physical copies worldwide. Despite its popularity when originally released, the song is rarely played on oldies radio stations today.
The original recording by its composer Lally Stott, was a hit in France (Top 15), a minor hit in Italy, Australia and in the United States. Stott's record company, Philips, was reluctant to release the song overseas, and apparently offered it to two other groups: Scottish folk-pop group Middle of the Road, who were working in Italy at the time, and Mac and Katie Kissoon. While it is unclear which group Stott offered his song to first, Mac and Katie Kissoon produced their cover version first. Middle of the Road's version then initially became a hit on the Continent only, but later grew in popularity in the United Kingdom, reportedly via DJ Tony Blackburn favoring this version over the previously-produced version by Mac and Katie Kissoon. However, Middle of the Road's version didn't even chart on the United States Billboard Hot 100, and nearly flopped in the UK also, because it followed the Kissoon's previously-produced version. Middle of the Road's version eventually reached #1 in the UK and stayed there for five weeks in June 1971, while the Kissoons' version only reached #41. In the USA the Kissoon's version was a greater success, reaching #20 on the Billboard Hot 100, while Lally Stott's original version reached #92.
The song was dismissed by critics as bubblegum at the time, a view initially held by band leader Ken Andrews: "We were as disgusted with the thought of recording it as most people were at the thought of buying it. But at the end of the day, we liked it
