carlile (brandi) - forever young (chanson angl alphaville) 2011 @@
Rester jeune Je veux rester jeune
Veux-tu vraiment vivre pour toujours
Pour toujours et à jamais ?
Sortie en 1984 à l'apogée de la guerre froide, en plein débat sur l'installation de missiles Pershing II face aux SS-20 soviétiques, et alors que le mouvement écologique faisait une percée politique en Allemagne, la chanson du groupe Alphaville, reprise ici par Brandi Carlile, évoque la jeunesse, le temps qui passe, la peur de l'avenir, le risque nucléaire
Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while
Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best, but expecting the worst
Are you gonna drop the bomb or not?
Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power, but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
The music's for the sad man
Can you imagine when this race is won?
Turn our golden the faces into the sun
Praising our leaders, we're getting in tune
The music's played by the, the madman
Forever young
I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever, and ever
Forever young
I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever young
Some are like water, some are like the heat
Some are a melody and some are the beat
Sooner or later they all will be gone
Why don't they stay young?
It's so hard to get old without a cause
I don't want to perish like a fading horse
Youth's like diamonds in the sun,
And diamonds are forever
So many adventures given up today
So many songs we forgot to play
So many dreams swinging out of the blue
Oh let it come true
Forever young
I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever
Forever, and ever?
