Arms

[eotunun]

Three cheers and a big Hooray to whoever recorded The new one.
Now for the intersting bits: I heard something about Mercedes Benz, Sundays and arms..
What about you?

[Nicole]

Sounds good! Me likey.

But lyrically - I've got nothing.

[eotunun]

Let's storm the tourbus and take photographs of the lyrics sheets.

[euphoria]

To be Andrew, I think he sings relatively clear.

I don't know if this first verse makes sense?

Live(d) your life in paradise
Live(d) your life through/to the west/best
Live(d) your life in a [three syllables, "big" first one?]
Oh/So I must take you down

All senses [?] away
Go/Don't keep calling some day/sunday (a few errors there probably )

Don't leave/keep your arms around me
Don't leave your (can that be "guns around"..no?)

I shouldn't do this really, but I think you native speakers should be able to hear some lines...he isn't mumbling ALL the time

[stufarq]

These definitely aren't correct and don't make much sense but if we all keep posting the drivel we hear, eventually we'll be able to take the odd correct word from each post and put them together. It'll be like a jigsaw. Which has had coffee spilled all over it so that you can't see the picture properly.

Live your life in paradise
Live your life through loves
Live your life in a faithful war
For all of us will lose one

All senses steal away
Go keeping corners some rain

Go and feel arms around you
Go and feel what comes around
Go and feel arms around you
Off your face gold fever is streaming I know

All weaned in the class war
We all cover the door
Everybody got arms to lift me
With a camera in the trunk

All senses steal away
War keep coming some day

Go and feel the arms around him
Go and feel the arms around
Go and feel the arms around him
Off your face gold feeling is streaming I fear

[_emma_]

My personal receptive filters catched something like this: "I'll put my arms around you and we're gonna make love in a Mercedes Benz this Sunday, baby boogie baby", and "paradise."

Don´t tell us about your dreams, darling..not here so far..pleeeeaaaase!

Who do you mean by "us"? Do you have a split personality, darling?

I love it when he says that in the ZTV interview!

Well anyway, back on topic:

We all cover the door
Everybody got arms to lift me
With a camera in the trunk

Hell, it sounds like you found the Sisters tour diary

[aims]

A further iteration. Changes highlighted in bold, possible alternatives in [/Brackets and Italics].

Live your life in parallax
Live the life through the lens
Live your life in the [?] room
For the mercy [...]

All senses steal away
Go keeping corners some rain
[/Throw key and collar...?]

Go and [/Can't] feel arms around you
Go and feel what comes around
Go and feel arms around you
Off your face gold fever is streaming I know

All weaned in the underclasses
For your "love and the law" [/love under law?]
Everybody got locked and loaded
With a man on the door

All senses steal away
War keep coming some day

Go and feel the arms around him
Go and feel the arms around
Go and feel the arms around him
Off your face gold feeling is streaming I fear

Edit: Based on the Dresden 28/02/09

[eotunun]

While Stufarq apparently makes love in a battlefield again* I am quite confident that the first vers is slightly different. But, Sire: Damn good effort at hearing out! the words!
Motz, I guess you are on target with lines one and two.

Live your life in parallax
Live the life through the lens

Live your life through a big rumour
For all the Mercedes Benz

I am rather sure about these lines. Some paparazzi or similar is getting a good bashing here, hm?


*He's f*cking close to the target

Oh, and isn't "Go keeping corners some rain" a nice way to tell someone to pee in a corner?

[weebleswobble]

surely its

• Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
  It must have been something you said
  I just died in your arms tonight

[mugabe]

A great song, at last! Dresden-take:

Live your life in a parallax
Live a life through a lens
Live your life in the read room
For the mercy is men's

All senses steel awake
Throw key and collar someday

Go and feel the arms around you
Go and feel the arms around
Go and feel the arms around you
Over the wisdom, feel is real, come feel

Full weaned underclasses
For your love under law
Everybody got locked and loaded
With a hand on the door

All senses steel awake
Throw key and collar someday

Go and feel the arms around you
Go and feel the arms around
Go and feel the arms around you
Over the wisdom, feel is real, come feel

US, honey..everyone around here which is not interested in some wet dreams..

[euphoria]

Over the wisdom feel is real, come feel

That sounds pretty spot on to me soundwise, and makes sense too!

Very nice to see you again, mugabe - giving Stockholm a chance maybe?

[mugabe]

Actually I am. After Malmoe, I thought I'd just go and see them if they played within walking distance from my home, and the tickets were relatively cheap. As it came to pass, they are playing within walking distance from my girlfriend's, and the tickets were relatively cheap as well, so there you go. Have had some second thoughts about it, but this song alone might make it worthwhile.

[euphoria]

I know the feeling - haven't even listened to the other songs from DD, but they are good when you're there, and better still if you have been drinking.

Come by the infamous Broder Tuck before if you feel like it!
Now I won't disturb here anymore, you and Motz seem to be on the right track to something.

Strange how little he mumbles this time - is that a good sign in more than one way?

[euphoria]

All senses steel awake
Throw key and collar someday

These are the lines where I definitely hear something else;

"steel" sounds more like "stale" or "stay" both times.
Same goes for "collar someday" which both times sounds more like "call it sunday".

Interestingly, the second verse, unlike the first, he does not sing "All" but "throw" or something very similar..."full"?

Generally I actually also tend to really hear a d as in Mercedes-Benz, although I'm not sure on that one.

I think its very hard to hear..I listen and listen and listen..very complicated..but I really like that new one..

I'm with you on all accounts. Can't figure out that second "throw" thing either; "Froze" fits the context but is the wrong tense.

New take:

Live your life in a parallax
Live a life through the lens
Live your life in the read room
For the Mercedes-Benz

All senses stale away
Throw the key and call her someday

Go and feel the arms around you
Go and feel the arms around
Go and feel the arms around you
Over the wisdom, feel is real, come feel

Full weaned underclasses
For your love under law
Everybody got locked and loaded
With a hand on the door

[Froze] senses stale away
Throw the key and call her someday

Go and feel the arms around you
Go and feel the arms around
Go and feel the arms around you
Over the wisdom, feel is real, come feel

Hmm, I'm still hearing it as "all senses steal away", as in to move away stealthily.

[mugabe]

"stale away", as in to slowly dry up, fits even better, imho.

[stufarq]

Some good corrections there everyone. But I'm afraid I can't hear the "big rumour". "key and collar" or "wisdom" lines at all. Mind you, these days when AE sings, I can't hear anything much at all!

Here's my latest, still wrong, version. The dodgy bits are between question marks; the rest I'm fairly sure of.

Live your life in parallax
Live the life through the lens
Live your life in a ?faith no more?
For all the Mercedes Benz

All senses steal away
?Go keeping callers sun rain?

Gonna be the arms around you
Gonna be what comes around
Gonna be the arms around you
?Off your place come fever is reading, come on? [obviously wrong but still what it sounds like to me!]

All weaned in the underclasses
For your love ?under/and the? law
?Everybody? [sounds more like "Every boy"] got a lot to live ?with/for?
With a hammer and a ?heart?

All senses steal away [sounds a bit different this time "Four fences"!]
?Oh keep 'em coming sun, rain?

Gonna be the arms around you
I'm gonna be the arms around
I'm gonna be the arms around you
?Off your place redeeming? is real I feel [drivel, I know - but better than "Arm your pastry"]

Sounds like a meditation on celebrity culture to me.

[Brad]

I think Mugabe is pretty damn close.


Some thoughts/suggestions:

All signs say stay away, (instead of All senses stale away)

[mugabe]

3rd version after input from Stu & Meth:

Live your life in a parallax
Live a life through the lens
Live your life in the read room
For the Mercedes-Benz

All signs say stay away
Throw the key and call her someday

Come feel the arms around you
I'm gonna be the arms around
I'm gonna be the arms around you
Over the wisdom, feel is real, come feel

Full weaned underclasses
For your love under law
Everybody got locked and loaded
With a hand on the drawer

[Froze senses still awake?]
Throw the key and call her someday

Come feel the arms around you
I'm gonna be the arms around
I'm gonna be the arms around you
Over the wisdom, feel is real, come feel
