Adagio av Remo Giazotto (1910-1998) & Tomaso Albinoni (1671-1751)
Remo Giazotto har komponerat det mycket kända Adagio i g-moll publicerat 1958 som han enligt egna uppgifter baserade på ett fragment av Tomaso Albinoni, funnet i Dresdens stadsbibliotek kort efter andra världskrigets slut. Vid denna tidpunkt höll han på med att komplettera både Albinonis biografi och katalog.
Text We've all seen a man at the liquor store beggin' for your change The hair on his face is dirty, dreadlocked and full of mange He asks a man for what he could spare with shame in his eyes Get a job, you fuckin' slob is all he replies
God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in his shoes 'Cause then you really might know what it's like to sing the blues Then you really might know what it's like
Mary got pregnant from a kid named Tom who said he was in love He said, Don't worry about a thing, baby doll, I'm the man you've been dreamin' of But three months later he say he won't date her or return her calls And she swear, God damn if I find that man I'm cuttin' off his balls And then she heads for the clinic and she gets some static walkin' through the door They call her a killer, and they call her a sinner, and they call her a whore
God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in her shoes 'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to choose Then you really might know what it's like
I've seen a rich man beg I've seen a good man sin I've seen a tough man cry
I've seen a loser win And a sad man grin I heard an honest man lie
I've seen the good side of bad And the down side of up And everything between
I licked the silver spoon Drank from the golden cup Smoked the finest green
I stroked the fattest dimes At least a couple of times Before I broke their heart
You know where it ends Yo, it usually depends On where you start
I knew this kid named Max He used to get fat stacks Out on the corner with drugs
He liked to hang out late He liked to get shit faced And keep the pace with thugs
Until late one night There was a big gun fight Max lost his head
He pulled out his Chrome .45 Talked some shit And wound up dead
And now his wife and his kids Are caught in the midst Of all of this pain
You know it comes that way At least that's what they say When you play the game
God forbid you ever had to wake up to hear the news 'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to lose Then you really might know what it's like To have to lose.

Text When that evening sun goes down Yeah, you'll find me hanging around Because the night life It ain't no good life but it's my life
Ah, ah, all of the people just like you and me They're all dreaming about their old used to be Because the night life It ain't no good life but it's my life
Yeah, yeah, yeah listen to the blues Listen to what they're saying Oh, please listen to the blues Listen to the blues they're playing
They tell me life's an empty scene An avenue of broken dreams Because the night life It ain't no good life but it's my life...

I can see clearly now, är en reggaepoplåt, komponerad av Johnny Nash (1940-2020), ursprungligen också inspelad av honom 1971. Den spelades in på Jamaica med delar av Bob Marleys kompgrupp The Wailers. Låten utgavs som singel 1972, samt på albumet med samma titel senare samma år. Låten blev listetta i USA i fyra veckor och kanske den låten Johnny Nash starkast förknippades med. https://johnnynash.com & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJ860x … ZAs16f9DAw
Låten har funnits med i många filmer så som Thelma & Louise och Cool Runnings, i den sistnämnda i en version av Jimmy Cliff.
