The Stranglers - Dark Matters (2021)


The Stranglers
Dark Matters
(2021)

Stranglers completed "Dark Matters" remotely during lockdowns, making it their first album since 2012. The album features the single "And If You Should See Dave...", an honest tribute to their much-missed keyboard player Dave Greenfield who tragically passed away a year ago from Covid-19 (Greenfield himself features on 8 of the 11 tracks).

08. Down [3:02]
10. White Stallion [4:45]
11. Breathe [5:50]

Genetix



David Paul Greenfield
29.03.1949. - 03.05.2020.

See the little nuclei
Bursting full of information
There's a need to regulate
Bring it down to cells and plasma
Tell you what they're gonna do
Started doing it already
Got to find something new
Looking for it in genetix
Found a new game to play
Think it's impossible to lose
Messing round at playing God
Easy way to play genetix

(The Raven, 1984)


 live at Hammersmith Apollo 2010 (vocals: Dave Greenfield)

We are deeply and profoundly saddened to announce the untimely passing of keyboard legend Dave Greenfield on the evening of 3rd May 2020. Following a stay in hospital for heart problems, Dave tested positive for the CoViD-19 virus last Sunday but he sadly lost his battle last night. Dave had been an ever present in the band since joining in late 1975 and his keyboard wizardry was world-renowned over his 45 year career in The Stranglers. Dave was a lovable, friendly and eccentric character who always had time to chat.
Fly straight mr G.

2 2 Tango



Za tango je potrebno dvoje
Dovoljno da započnu ples
Dovoljno da započnu rat
Bilo je dovoljno dvoje i u vreme drevno
Da se na vrh majmunskog drveta popnemo
Dvoje je sasvim dovoljno
Samo sačekaj i gledaj

Ships that pass in the night



Čekali smo na bolje vreme
Da rešimo sve probleme
Baš nas briga je li put jednog smera
Dok gore svetla naših fenjera
Na brodu što plovi u noć

Pomno osmatraj taj okean za romantičare
Dok te ne obore religiozni snovi
Ili glasaj za političare
Ili se pomoli da nađeš dobrog doktora
Na brodu što u noć plovi

Iznenada, na obzorju jarbol se ukaza
Eto ga, sve brže i bliže
Al' nada je opet prazna bila
Da neće proći, sve brže, sve dalje

(Feline, 1982)

Ice



Umire kao trešnjin cvet
Skriven međ' lišćem uz miris lep
Smrtonosan, pod maskarom silnom
Ali to nije dovoljno
Umesto kiseline davi me led
Njeni su prsti prekriveni ledom
I peć nam je ledena
Samo što to nije dovoljno
Kada pričaš bez razloga
Onda ćutanje ima smisla
Kada dišeš bez razloga
Onda to nije dovoljno
Oči su mi pune leda
U ovo doba ga uvek ima
Umesto izdaje hladan vazduh je ono što mi treba
Nema ništa od toga
Hakagura, uz miris lep

The Last Strangle


MAWA705, DVD (1999)

The very last Hugh Cornwell's strangling with The Stranglers. After the gig he'd left the band, permanently. The strangling-in-black will never be the same again.

Ravencrow


Da li znate da gavrani ne samo što pamte čoveka koji im je pomogao, već o tome pričaju i svojoj sabraći?
Tokom istraživanja na terenu, naučnici su primetili da svaki put kada neko pomogne gavranu ili vrani u nevolji, ne samo jedinka kojoj je pružena pomoć već celokupna zajednica tih korvida uopšteno počne da se ponaša prijateljskije i sa većom dozom poverenja prema svom ljudskom dobročinitelju.
Ptice sa kefalom, zar ne?


My friend, you're black and when you fly you're wild
I am white, sometimes I behave just like a child
The northern seas are cold but they're our own
We'll sail your southern seas before too long
When I was a viking
My friend he was the raven

Everybody loves when you're dead


Zašto?


Razapnu te kada grešiš,
a kad im je dobro gurnu te prvog
Smeju se kad ti spadnu gaće,
i kamenuju, pravo u glavu
Jer, kada si živ, briga ih šta kažeš,
šta ti treba, što za njih krvariš

Nije bitno to što kriješ,
jer istina uvek izađe na sunce
Fanovi te vole dok si živ,
ali venac ti sledi tek kad prilegneš

Jer, kada si živ, briga njih šta kažeš,
šta ti treba, što za njih krvariš

Svi te vole kada si mrtav
klekni, pomoli se kraj kreveta
Da, svi te vole kada si mrtav
klekni i pomoli se, slušaj majku svoju

Jer, kada si živ, briga njih šta kažeš,
šta ti treba, što za njih krvariš

U grobu se prevrćeš na to što sad kažu
i koliko te konačno cene
Jer, svi te vole kada si mrtav
Da, svi te vole tek kad si mrtav


Zato.


(La Folie, 1981)
