Noir Desir - Le vent nous portera ?

---

The french rock band 'Noir Desir' (the name seems predestined and you will find out why) have posted two new songs on their website available for download (somewhere on this page you can find a embeddable widget where you can listen these songs). The band have a long time activity so it shouldn't be in the top searches on the internet these days without a serious reason. Bertrand Cantat (2nd from left to right in the picture above), have killed his girlfriend 5 years ago in a Lithuanian hotel. He was sentenced at 8 years of prison, but he was released after spending just half of sentence for 'good behavior'. Probably he sang in the jail and composed these two songs. Although I think that Noir Desir have a few nice songs, I wonder how does Bertrand expects to be accepted by the public. It is ridiculous. Below on the page there is a nice song called "Le vent nous portera", (in English "The wind will carry us") and the title makes me think that Bertrand hopes that his past will be carried away from our memory. Maybe people will remember this way how an young actress have been taken away from her life. That's why the band's name sounds predestined: 'Noir Desir' (in english 'Dark Desire'). A tipical french story: a bit sweet and a bit bitter. And a nice line from this song:

Ce parfum de nos années mortes

which translated to english means 'this perfume of our years died'. I wonder, have people forgotten?!

Kanye West - Love lockdown

Kanye West hits MTV's VMA with 'Love Lockdown' and people are just mad these days searching on the internet for anything related to Kanye. So I've gathered a few resources to check him. He have a 'huh' blog, a myspace page. Below is the Kanye West - Love lockdown video and lyrics.

Im not lovin you, the way I wanted to

What I had to do, had to run from you

Im in love with you, but the vibe is wrong

And that haunted me, all the way home

So ya never know, never never know

Never know enough, til its over love

Til we lose control, system overload

Screamin no no no, no no

I aint lovin you, the way I wanted to

See I wanna move, but cant escape from you

So I keep it low, keep a secret code

So everybody else dont have to know

So keep ya love locked down, ya love locked down

So keep ya love locked down, ya love locked down

So keep ya love locked down, ya love locked down

You keep ya love locked down, you lose

Im not lovin you, the way I wanted to

I cant keep my cool, so I keep it true

I got somethin to lose, so I gotta move

I cant keep myself, and still keep you too

So I keep in mind, when Im on my own

Somewhere far from home, In the danger zone

How many times did it take til I finally got through

you lose, you lose

I aint lovin you, the way I wanted to

See I had to go, see I had to go

No more wastein time, we cant wait for life

which is wastin time, wheres the finish line

So keep ya love locked down, ya love locked down

So keep ya love locked down, ya love locked down

So keep ya love locked down, ya love locked down

You keep ya love locked down, you lose

Im not lovin you, the way i wanted to

I met no one new, I got no one new

No I said im through, but got love for you

But im not lovin you, the way I wanted to

Gotta keep it goin, keep the lovin goin

Keep it on a roll, only god knows

Am I into you, baby im confused

You choose, you choose

I aint lovin you, the way I wanted to

Way I got to go, I dont need you

I been on this road, too many times before

I aint lovin you, the way I wanted to

So keep ya love locked down, ya love locked down

Keepin ya love locked down, ya love locked down

Keepin ya love locked down, ya love locked down

Keepin ya love locked down, you lose

So keep ya love locked down, ya love locked down

Keepin ya love locked down, ya love locked down

If you keep ya love locked down, ya love locked down

Keepin ya love locked down, you lose
