OT: Songs Where Singers Come Clean

[Bama fan]

Strange song ,great album, sick lyrics

 

[Bama fan]

Confession is coming clean, so to speak.

 

[Bama fan]

From one of the great true confession shows ever produced.

 

[Bigboote]

I still miss Terry Kath.

 

[Bama fan]

Here is a whole crew of gals coming clean: Sorry about the translated lyrics. I think they are just as confessorial in any language.

Another from Adele, but she's laying it on the line here. If you play it on full volume, she'll scare you.

Based on your Title and your Illustrations.....I have no idea what you are looking for.

Success!

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Do you know the "you"?

She is so smooth and sophisticated. The music is just there to guide her along, and her voice caresses every word. One of my favorite jazz singers , and one of her best efforts. Thanks for sharing this.

From B,S & T original group with Al Kooper. Album is Child is Father to The Man, and the cover art is unique.

Well said...she is perfection!

She`s so fine, there`s no tellin` where the money went...................

 

[Huskee11]

Now, from a group that was a relationship train wreck even by rock star standards

Cover downright creepy!

 

[Bigboote]

Cover downright creepy!

But that first BST album is SOOO good.

Could someone cut this tune today and not be skewered by the PC brigade. Answer is probaly sure, because in the name of art all is fair game. Dichotomy, hypocrisy, PC hob nobs with gangster rap.

This one I adore - heading down the highway gettin' away from that woman:

Not sure I get it yet...or maybe this is one of the best of all time. Even the vid is... well, uh let's just say a classic (be sure to notice all the 'cleaning' with the broom). As usual, when I think it worthy, I supply lyrics too

Lying in my bed, I hear the clock tick and think of you
Caught up in circles, confusion is nothing new
Flashback, warm nights almost left behind
Suitcases of memories, time after...

Sometimes you picture me, I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear what you've said
Then you say, "Go slow", I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

If you're lost, you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting
Time after time

If you're lost, you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting
Time after time

After my picture fades and darkness has turned to gray
Watching through windows, you're wondering if I'm OK
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of time

If you're lost, you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting
Time after time

You said, "Go slow", I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

If you're lost, you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting
Time after time

If you're lost, you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting
Time after time
.....

This one always cracked me up:

You beat me to this one...too damn funny!

Hey, hey, baby, how you doin', come on in here
Got some hot chocolate on the stove waitin' for ya
Listen, first things first, let me hang up that coat
Yeah, 'n' how's your day today, did ya miss me?
Oh, you did, yeah, I missed you, too
I missed you so much I followed you today
That's right
Now close your mouth
Cause you cold busted

This one I adore - heading down the highway gettin' away from that woman

...and this one!
