Radik Tyulyush - Mazhalykhta (Chalama live performance, 2013)​

A clouded dream on an earthly night
Hangs upon the crescent moon
A voiceless song in an ageless light
Sings at the coming dawn
Birds in flight are calling there
Where the heart moves the stones
It's there that my heart is longing for
All for the love of you

A painting hangs on an ivy wall
Nestled in the emerald moss
The eyes declare a truce of trust
And then it draws me far away
Where deep in the desert twilight
Sand melts in pools of the sky
When darkness lays her crimson cloak
Your lamps will call, call me home.

And so it's there my homage's due
Clutched by the still of the night
And now I feel, feel you move
Every breath is full
So it's there my homage's due
Clutched by the still of the night
Even the distance feels so near
All for the love of you.

A clouded dream on an earthly night
Hangs upon the crescent moon
A voiceless song in an ageless light
Sings at the coming dawn
Birds in flight are calling there
Where the heart moves the stones
It's there that my heart is longing for
All for the love of you.

I like the photo of Joan Baez! Very nice.




She sang a song about freedom I like in the Basque country in the Basque language -- called Txoria Txori.



HEGOAK EBAKI BANIZKIO
NERIA IZANGO ZEN
EZ ZUEN ALDEGINGO
BAINAN, HONELA
EZ ZEN GEHIAGO TXORIA IZANGO
ETA NIK...TXORIA NUEN MAITE

THE BIRD WHICH IS A BIRD
IF I HAD CUT THE WINGS TO HER
SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN MINE
SHE WOULD NOT BE FLEES
BUT,THUS
SHE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ANYMORE A BIRD
AND ME...IT'S THE BIRD WHICH I LOVED

On this chart date 35 years ago, Queen could call themselves a No. 1 band in America for the first time. ‘Crazy Little Thing Called Love,’ which had been thwarted in its efforts to top the UK bestsellers late the year before, seized the American singles crown, and wore it for a full month.

Written solely by Freddie Mercury and delivered in a rock ‘n’ roll tribute style with heavy echo on his voice, the song had spent two weeks at No. 2 in Queen’s home country in November 1979. It was held off the top by Dr. Hook’s pop confection ‘When You’re In Love With A Beautiful Woman.’

But on the Billboard Hot 100 for February 23, 1980, ‘Crazy Little Thing’ removed the Captain & Tennille’s ‘Do That To Me One More Time’ from the No. 1 spot. It stayed there four weeks, before being succeeded by another British rock classic, Pink Floyd’s ‘Another Brick In The Wall.’ Their previous best US showing had been the No. 4 peak of the double-sided ‘We Will Rock You’ and ‘We Are The Champions.’ The new single went on to be certified gold in both the US and UK, as well as in Holland.

“I wrote the song languishing in my bath at the Munich Hilton,” Mercury said in the Billboard Book of Number One Hits, by Fred Bronson. He reportedly got out of the tub to go to his guitar and piano to lay down the melody. “We arranged [it] at band rehearsals the following day with me trying to play rhythm guitar.

“Everyone loved it, so we recorded it. The finished version sounded like the bathroom version.It’s not typical of my work, but that’s because nothing is typical of my work.”
Peter Hince, head of Queen’s road crew, confirmed the song’s origins in a 2009 interview with Mojo. “The idea for the song came to him while he was in the bath,” he said. “He emerged, wrapped in a towel, I handed him the guitar and he worked out the chords there and then. Fred had this knack of knowing a great pop song.”
