blue lines

en ba$arili deput albumlerinden biri. massive attack'i kendisi yapan ve triphop akiminin ciki$ noktasinda aslinda biraz daha olumlu sozlerle desteklenen bir album. ciki$ yili olan 1991 tarihinden kulaklarimda hala nelson'in acid jazz sesisyle albume can veri$i cinliyor.

massive attack'ın ilk albümü olup, tüm zamanların da en güzel albümlerinden biridir. trip-hop denen manyak şeyi hayatımıza sokmuştur. safe from harm, Unfinished Sympathy, Daydreaming gibi nefis hitler barındırır içinde. bir de William Devaughn cover'ı Be Thankful for What You've Got vardır ki...

bir massive attack şarkısı. sözleri;

[tricky]

can't be with the one you love then love the one you're with
spliff in the ashtray, red stripe i pull the lid
her touch tickles, especially when she's gentle
but i don't hear her words 'cause i saw the instrumental
keep the girl in the distance, moves are very hazy
no sunshine in my life the way i deal is shady

[3d]

skip hip data to get the anti-matter
blue lines are the reason why the temple had to shatter
to the sound of silence surrounded by the mass
her face is on the paper not the strangers that i pass
the ones i'm looking back to see if they are looking back at me

[daddy g]

are you predator or do you fear me

[3d]

yeah while i'm doing this i know
the place i really wanna go's
the one i love but never gets near me

[tricky]

it's a beautiful day, well it seems as such
beautiful thoughts whereas i dream too much
even if i told you, you still would not know me
tricky never does, adrian mostly gets lonely
how we live in this existence, just being
english upbringing, background carribean

[3d]

it's the way that we bui-l-d
sharing a soliloquy
we cut the broken thread from flexibility
mi chiamo 3d si sono inglese
no sunshine in my life 'cause the way i deal is hazy
live from day to day-zy 'cause i'm on my toes
while contemporaries of mine remaining comatose

[tricky]

there's a looking glass she's looking through
she hated me, but then she loved me too
i'd lie not try so i lost faith
then turn to her to keep the faith
she told me take an occupation or you lose your mind
now i'm a nine to five lemon, looking for the lime

[3d]

box clever, watch your system come together
crazy weather at the end of my tether

[daddy g]

massive in the area, murderer
attackin' any area, murderer

[3d]

some go softly softly round the habitat
ratchet in the right hand
they got no one to stab it at
take a walk billy, don't be a hero
effort's on minimal though almost touch zero
excommunicated from the brotherhood of man
to wander lonely as a puzzled anagram

car paint blue, green, primer and zinc
take it to extremities for purple and pink
i feel the colours fill my room beneath the patter of the rain
i can't stand the drops that dribble down my windowpane
they wash away my shadow and don't even leave a mark upon my soul
they leave the rainbows in the dark

[tricky]

blues get big, massive are even larger
save nuff space into the tricky tardis
we'd trawl what i saw thrown down in darren's hall
people laying their claim
in stormy weather it's rain

[3d]

but you're living on a see-saw

[tricky]

i try to see more

[3d]

somebody died, did he? nobody
walking on sunshine, but still we're treading water
the son of many reasons searching for the daughter
seeking knowledge, not acknowledging the jetset
silver papers of the sound within my budakon headset
the solar system watches in wisdom
the children dance as the moonlight kissed them

[tricky]

to massive attack matt black appear wearing beads
two hours traveling so i wrote this on rapide
always living fast, people getting jumpy
where on ?gruggy? falls i just do the walter crumpy
microphone so close, crowd so far apart
take my piece of mind and sign my name across your heart
