The Sound of Silence: Simon & Garfunkel

Songwriter: Paul Simon

One of the most poignant, evocative pieces of pop lyrics to emerge out of the 20th century, imo

Hello, darkness, my old friend... (what an opening line!)

And in the naked light I saw

Ten thousand people, maybe more

People talking without speaking

People hearing without listening

People writing songs that voices never share

No one dared

Disturb the sound of silence

And the sign flashed out its warning

In the words that it was forming

And the sign said, "The words of the prophets

Are written on the subway walls

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0q7MLPo-u8

I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes

Love is all around me, and so the feeling grows

It's written in the wind, it's everywhere I go

So if you really love me, come on and let it show..

Love is all around: The Troggs

Songwriter: Reg Presley

The more popular version by Wet Wet Wet

( features in the soundtrack of Four Weddings & a Funeral)

More Beatles cos they have songs for every theme! 

P.S. I love you

As I write this letter, send my love to you

Remember that I'll always be in love with you...

Maxwell's Silver Hammer

(TW: Murder, battery, bludgeoning)

Second stanza...

Back in school again Maxwell plays the fool again

Teacher gets annoyed

Wishing to avoid an unpleasant scene

She tells Max to stay when the class has gone away

So he waits behind

Writing fifty times I must not be so, uh oh oh

But when she turns her back on the boy

He creeps up from behind

This was one of the 'punishments' teachers would dole out... 

If you've been talking in class write I will not talk in class 100 times on the board or in your notebook!

Two of us

Two of us sending postcards

Writing letters on my wall

You and me burning matches

Lifting latches, on our way back home

We're on our way home

We're on our way home

We're going home

Blacksmith- Steeleye Span

This is a little known British Folk Rock Band but they are soo awesome... please please give this a listen!

Lead vocals are by Maddy Prior 

This song has two versions, posting both. I like the one with the slower tempo more.

Traditional English folk song listed as number 816 in the Roud Folk Song Index.

A blacksmith courted me nine months or better

He fairly won my heart, wrote me a letter

With his hammer in his hand he looked so clever

And if I were with my love I would live forever

Oh where has my love gone with his cheeks like roses

He is gone across the sea gathering primroses

I'm afraid the shining sun might burn and scorch his beauty

And if I were with my love I would do my duty

Strange news is a-come to town, strange news is carried

Strange news flies up and down that my love is married

Oh I wish them both great joy, though they don't hear me

And if I were with my love I would do my duty

What did you promise me when you lay beside me

You said you'd marry me and not deny me

If I said I'd marry you twas only to try you

So bring your witness love and I'll not deny you

O, witness have I none save God Almighty

And may He reward you well for the slighting of me

Her lips grew pale and wan; it made her poor heart tremble

For to think she had loved one, and he proved deceitful

Song : Mera Kuchh Saman

Singer : Asha Bhosle

Lyrics : Gulzar

Music: R D Burman

Movie : Ijazat

https://youtu.be/OlvXDGJAMT0?si=sn9mH1ZFs0g_QPuc

Mera kuchh saamaan, tumhaare paas pada hai,

Saawan ke kuchh bhige bhige din rakhe hain,

Aur mere ek khat mein lipati, raat padi hai,

Wo raat bujha do, mera wo saamaan lauta do.
