    As Tears Go By - Marianne Faithfull

    It is the evening of the day

    I sit and watch the children play

    Smiling faces I can see

    But not for me

    I sit and watch

    As tears go by

    My riches cant buy everything

    I want to hear the children sing

    All I hear is the sound

    Of rain falling on the ground

    I sit and watch

    As tears go by

    It is the evening of the day

    I sit and watch the children play

    Doin things I used to do

    They think are new

    I sit and watch

    As tears go by

  4. Time Top 100 Albums

    Oh yeah - I think I'll finish by asking how on earth the people at Time magazine can judge Kanye West's influence such a short period of time after the album was released? Okay, maybe Kanye really is more creative and influential than other rappers in the world today, but I still think they should wait a few more years to judge how influential the album is.

    Kanye has produced more so than create albums for himself. So the influence runs through many rap artists as well as other musicians.

  6. The Songfactor's Choice Top Ten # 38

    in The Songfactor's Choice Top 10

    it's pretty interesting actually - I just did a quick count:

    up to date we had 38 Top Tens, that means 380 songs...

    out of these 25 were 80's songs (ca. 7%) and 19 were 90's songs... (5%)

    50's and 00's are even below that...

    so around 320 out of 380 songs are either 60's or 70's (that's 85%)

    --------------

    but please don't take that as a criticism, a great deal of my favourite songs/artists are from the 60's or 70's :)

    the only thing I want to do is campaigning for (not demanding or suchlike) songs of a decade that are sometimes terribly underrated, imho

    and they should compete against songs of all other decades, so I wouldn't want to vote for a "90's only" or "80's +" Top Ten's (unless it's an idea for a "Special Top Ten" in that category everything's possible :))

    mind you, this is just my personal opinion :)

    That's pretty much been my life story. At this point, the songs I've loved most were from the 60s and 70s.
