Michael Sembello - Maniac

Posted by videoscache on 1 March 2008

Michael Sembello - Maniac
Just a steel town girl on a saturday night
Lookin’ for the fight of her life
In the real-time world no one sees her at all
They all say she’s crazy

Locking rhythms to the beat of her heart
Changing woman into life
She has danced into the danger zone
When a dancer becomes a dance

It can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire
On a wire between will and what will be

She’s a maniac, maniac on the floor
And she’s dancing like she’s never danced before
She’s a maniac, maniac on the floor
And she’s dancing like she’s never danced before

On the ice-build iron sanity is a place most never see
It’s a hard warm place of mystery, touch it, but can’t hold it
You work all your life for that moment in time, it could come or pass you by
It’s a push of the world, but there’s always a chance
If the hunger stays the night

There’s a cold connective heat, struggling, stretching for defeat
Never stopping with her head against the wind

She’s a maniac, maniac, I sure know
And she’s dancing like she’s never danced before
She’s a maniac, maniac, I sure know
And she’s dancing like she’s never danced before

It can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire
On a wire between will and what will be

She’s a maniac, maniac, I sure know
And she’s dancing like she’s never danced before

She’s a maniac, maniac, I sure know
And she’s dancing like she’s never danced before

Maniac, maniac, I sure know

Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)

Posted by videoscache on 1 March 2008

Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s lookin’ for somethin’.

Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s lookin’ for somethin’.

(hold your head up)
(keep your head up)
Movin’ on.
(hold your head up )
Movin’ on.
(keep your head up)
Movin’ on.
(hold your head up)
Movin’ on.
(keep your head up)
Movin’ on.
(hold your head up)
Movin’ on.
(keep your head up)

Some of them want to use you..
Some of them want to get used by you..
Some of them want to abuse you..
Some of them want to be abused..

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s lookin’ for somethin’.

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s lookin’ for somethin’.

Irene Cara - What a Feeling

Posted by videoscache on 1 March 2008

Irene Cara - What a Feeling
First, when there’s nothing but a slow glowing dream
That your fear seems to hide deep inside your mind
All alone I have cried silent tears full of pride
In a world made of steel, made of stone

Well I hear the music, close my eyes, feel the rhythm
Wrap around, take a hold of my heart

What a feeling, bein’s believin’
I can’t have it all, now I’m dancin’ for my life
Take your passion, and make it happen
Pictures come alive, you can dance right through your life

Now I hear the music, close my eyes, I am rhythm
In a flash it takes hold of my heart

What a feeling, bein’s believin’
I can’t have it all, now I’m dancin’ for my life
What a feeling
What a feeling (I am music now), bein’s believin’ (I am rhythm now)
Pictures come alive, you can dance right through your life
What a feeling (I can really have it all)
What a feeling (Pictures come alive when I call)
I can have it all (I can really have it all)
Have it all (Pictures come alive when I call)
(call, call, call, call, what a feeling) I can have it all
(Bein’s believin’) bein’s believin’

U2 - Sunday Bloody Sunday

Posted by videoscache on 14 February 2008

U2 - Sunday Bloody Sunday
Yeah…
Hmm… hmm….

I can’t believe the news today
Oh, I can’t close my eyes
And make it go away
How long…
How long must we sing this song?
How long? How long…

’cause tonight… we can be as one
Tonight…

Broken bottles under children’s feet
Bodies strewn across the dead end street
But I won’t heed the battle call
It puts my back up
Puts my back up against the wall

Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday

(Oh, let’s go)

And the battle’s just begun
There’s many lost, but tell me who has won?
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart

Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday

How long…
How long must we sing this song?
How long? How long…

’cause tonight… we can be as one
Tonight… tonight…

Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday

(Yeah, let’s go)

Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Oh, wipe your tears away
I wipe your tears away
(Sunday, bloody Sunday)
I wipe your blood shot eyes
(Sunday, bloody Sunday)

Sunday, bloody Sunday (Sunday, bloody Sunday)
Sunday, bloody Sunday (Sunday, bloody Sunday)

(Yeah, let’s go)

And it’s true we are immune
When fact is fiction and TV reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die

(Sunday, bloody Sunday)

The real battle just begun
To claim the victory Jesus won
On…

Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday…
