( email-addr.: markus.dietrich@vax.rz.uni-wuerzburg.d400.de ) we all enjoy the music-database You are supporting and perhaps have founded ... And because I think this MUSIC-BASE is used more international and world-width, i have also a desire to YOUR's ... I hope YOUR mind is still free (and not barred) for any kind of music existing ... What I want YOU to do is to insert some tracks of Gary NUMAN, maybe in the GUITAR-Archive ... In this case I really hope that he is not unknown to US-Guys, which are known as more interrested in HEAVY's more than real music ...!?! NUMAN is known as perhaps the first superstar of the synthesizer, but I think he is more than a musician fixed on keyboards... His great concerts in the beginnig eighties are not only acustic events, no they are optical unforgetable ... But I won' t not to tell so much about my kind of music... Gary Numan only on time came in the US-Charts, in 1979/80 with the Track 'Cars' (Top9),but in Britain he had 8 TopTen-Tracks (2 No.1) and 3 No.1 record's ... The best classics are "Are 'Friends' Electric?", "Cars", "We Are Glass", "Down in the Park" ... The best later are "She's got Claws", "Music for Chameleons", "We take mystery (to bed), "Worriors" ... So if You are involved in his music you may be more interrested in his former Tracks of the Punk-Style ... Nevertheless I hope you are thinking globaly ( for example on britains (or europeans) who are interrest in YOUR Base ... Therefore I have attached the lyrics of some common songs: "Are 'Friends' Electric?", "Cars" and "Down in the Park". I hope You can perhaps get more musical information so You are able to provide an entry in this Base. beforehand many thanks (Maybe you can tell me via net why You are angry about my letter if there it is) >>Are 'Friends' Electric?<< It's cold outside And the paints peeling off of my walls There's a man outside In a long coat, grey hat, smoking a cigarette Now the light fades out And I wonder what I'm doing in a room like this There's a knock on the door And just for a second I thought I remembered you So now I'm alone Now I can think for myself About little deals And S.U's And things that I just don't understand A white lie that night Or a sly touch at times I don't think it meant anything to you So I open the door It's the 'friend' that I'd left in the hallway 'Please sit down' A candle lit shadow on a wall near the bed You know I hate to ask But are 'friends' electric ? Only mine's broke down And now I've no-one to love So I find out your reason For the phone calls and smiles And it hurts And I'm lonely And I should never have tried And I missed you tonight It must be time to leave You see it meant everything to me >>Cars<< Here in my car I feel safest of all I can lock all my doors It's the only way to live In cars. Here in my car I can only receive I can listen to you It keeps me stable for days In cars. Here in my car The image breaks down Will you visit me. Please. If I open my door In cars. Here in my car I know I've started to think About leaving tonight Although nothing seems right In cars. I know I've started to think I know I've started to think >>Down in the Park<< Down in the park Where the machmen Meet the machines And play 'kill-by-numbers' Down in the park With a friend called 'five' I was in a car crash Or was it the war But I've never been Quite the same. Little white lies Like 'I was there' Come to 'zom zoms' A place to eat Like it was built In one day. You can watch the humans trying to run Oh look There's a rape machine I'd go outside If he'd look the other way You wouldn't believe the things they do Down in the park Where the chant is 'Death, death, death' Until the sun cries morning Down in the park With friends of mine 'We are not lovers We are not Romantics We are here to serve you' A different face But the words never change ------------------------------ Start of body part 2 bye ... ------------------------------ End of body part 2
