Blues Brothers Medley

Rawhide - The Blues Brothers (5/9) Movie CLIP (1980) HD







Feeling Good - Nina Simone



Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Reeds driftin' on by you know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me, woo...
And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom in the tree you know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me
And I'm feeling good

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done that's what I mean
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me~

Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me
And I'm feeling good

Jason Mraz - I Won't Give Up (Lyric Video)




[Jason Mraz]
When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Well there's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find

'Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No, I won't give up

I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use the tools and gifts
We got yeah we got a lot at stake
And in the end,
You're still my friend at least we didn't tend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn, how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I got, and what I'm not
And who I am

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up
I'm still looking up

I won't give up on us
God knows I'm tough, he knows
We got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up...

Jason Marz-I Won't Give Up



When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Theres so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find

Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We got a lot to learn
God knows we're worthy
No I won't give up

I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools, the skills we've got yeah we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend at least we didn't tend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I got, and what I'm not
And who I am

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

So easy is our life
What's mine is yours and yours mine
Hardly do we ever find
We'd rather be kind

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get dark
I'm healing this broken heart
And I know I'm worthy

I won't give up on us
God knows I'm tough, I am love
We got a lot to learn
God knows we're worthy

No I won't give up on us
God knows I've had enough
We got a lot to learn
And we're, and we're worthy

No I won't give up
No I won't give up

MANU CHAO "Me Llaman Calle"



Me llaman calle
Pisando baldosa
La revoltosa y tan perdida
Me llaman calle
Calle de noche calle de dia
Me llaman calle
Hoy tan cansada
Hoy tan vacía
Como maquinita
Por la gran ciudad

Me llaman calle
Me subo a tu coche
Me llaman calle
De malegria
Calle dolida
Calle cansada
De tanto amar
Voy calle abajo
Voy calle arriba
No me rebajo
Ni por la vida
Me llaman calle
Y ese es mi orgullo
Yo se que un dia llegara

Yo se que un dia
Vendra mi suerte
Un dia me vendra a buscar
A la salida un hombre bueno
Pa to la vida y sin pagar
Mi corazon no es de alquilar

Me llaman calle
Me llaman calle
Calle sufrida
Calle tristeza
De tanto amar
Me llaman calle
Calle y mas calle

Me llaman calle
La sin futuro
Me llaman calle
La sinsalida
me llaman calle
Calle y mas calle
Las que mujeres
De la vida
Suben pa bajo
bajan pa arriba
Como maquinita
Por la gran ciudad

Me llaman calle
Me llaman calle
Calle sufrida
Calle tristeza
De tanto amar
Me llaman calle
Calle y mas calle

me llaman siempre
Y a calquier hora
me llaman guapa
Siempre a deshora
Me llaman puta
Tambien princesa
Me llaman calle
Y es mi noblessa
Me llaman calle
Calle sufrida
Calle perdida
De tanto amar

Me llaman calle
Me llaman calle
Calle sufrida
Calle tristeza
De tanto amar (x5)



They call me street
tile Walking
The unruly and so lost
They call me street
Street by night Street by day
They call me street
So tired today
So empty today
as little machine
For the big city

They call me street
I climb into your car
They call me street
In Malegria
street hurt
road weary
From time to love
I'm going down the street
I'm going up the street
I do not recess
Not for life
They call me street
And that is my pride
I know one day come

I know one day
My luck will come
One day I will come to look
A good man out
Pa to life without paying
My heart is not renting

Noir Désir - Le Vent Nous Portera

Black Desire - Wind In The Willows




Je n'ai pas peur de la route
Faudrait voir, faut qu'on y goûte
Des méandres au creux des reins
Et tout ira bien

Le vent l'emportera

Ton message à la grande ourse
Et la trajectoire de la course
A l'instantané de velours
Même s'il ne sert à rien

[Refrain] :
Le vent l'emportera
Tout disparaîtra
Le vent nous portera

La caresse et la mitraille
Cette plaie qui nous tiraille
Le palais des autres jours
D'hier et demain

Le vent les portera

Génétique en bandoulière
Des chromosomes dans l'atmosphère
Des taxis pour les galaxies
Et mon tapis volant dis?

[Refrain]

Ce parfum de nos années mortes

I'm not afraid of the road
Would see, we need to taste
Meanders in the small of the back
And all will be well

The wind will prevail

Your message to the Great Bear
And the trajectory of the race
A snapshot of velvet
Although it is useless

[Chorus]
The wind will prevail
all disappear
Wind In The Willows

Caress and scrap
This plague us feels tight
The palace of the other days
Yesterday and tomorrow

The wind will

Genetics shoulder
Chromosomes in the atmosphere
Taxis for the galaxies
And my flying carpet say?

[Chorus]

This perfume of our dead years

U2 - Beautiful Day





The heart is a bloom
Shoots up through the stony ground
There's no room
No space to rent in this town

You're out of luck
And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck
And you're not moving anywhere

You thought you'd found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
In return for grace

It's a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away

You're on the road
But you've got no destination
You're in the mud
In the maze of her imagination

You love this town
Even if that doesn't ring true
You've been all over
And it's been all over you

It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day

Touch me
Take me to that other place
Teach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case

See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out

It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Beautiful day

Touch me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case

What you don't have you don't need it now
What you don't know you can feel it somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
Don't need it now
Was a beautiful day

U2 - One - Anton Corbjin Version





"One"


Is it getting better?
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame
You say

One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's

Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One

Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much?
More than a lot.
You gave me nothing,
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other

One

One

U2 Nashville All I Want Is You




U2 Lyrics - All I Want Is You
You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want
Your story to remain untold

But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You say you'll give me
A highway with no one on it
Treasure just to look upon it
All the riches in the night

You say you'll give me
Eyes in a moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You say you want
Your love to work out right
To last with me through the night

You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold

All the promises we break
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You...all I want is...
You...all I want is...
You...all I want is...
You...

Apple WWDC 2011 Done as a Song




song-a-day one thousand... and beyond

Hi! My name is Jonathan Mann, and I've been writing, recording, producing and uploading a song a day since January 1st, 2009. On September 28th, 2011 I'll be reaching my 1000th song a day song.


It's been an incredible time in my life, full of interesting people and places and experiences.

Ultimately, though, there's been one crucial aspect of the creative process that's been missing: Collaboration. I have a ton of really talented musical friends, many of whom I play music with regularly, but they all have jobs and, you know, lives! Because of the blisteringly fast pace of one song (with a video) every single day, it has been virtually impossible to bring other musicians into my process.

the project

With all that in mind, and to celebrate 1000 days of Song-A-Day, I'm going to invite all the musicians I know to come help me shape and create 30 songs in 30 days for the month of June. We'll have a live stream set up so you'll be able to watch as the creative process unfolds over each 24 hour period. At the end of the month, you'll be able to vote for your 10 favorite songs, and the tracks with the most votes will end up on the 1st official Song A Day album which will be released on September 28th!

the more the merrier

In addition to all the musicians who will be coming and going (including the guys from my band: Nic Kaelin, Sam Douglass, Norman Famous, David Douglas and Eric Yeargan) there will be 4 core team members who will be with me all-day every-day, helping me with the nuts and bolts of recording, arranging and producing. They are as follows:

Nick Krill and Thomas Hughes (of The Spinto Band) will travel to Berkeley from their homes in Delaware. Nick is an amazing guitar player and a great recording engineer. Thomas is a wonderful multi-instrumentalist; with whom I have a long history of collaboration. My friend Matt Payne (of the Glowing Stars) is also a multi-instrumentalist and a wonderful producer and arranger. Liam McCormick (of The Family Crest) is going to write string arrangements for the songs.
