The
Ransom ist ein Song aus dem zweiten Album von Madison Violet – No
Fool For Trying (2009). Der wunderbare Harmoniegesang von Brenley
MacEachern und Lisa MacIsaac kommt hier besonders zum Tragen.
Die
beiden Kanadierinnen singen von dem manchmal schwierigen Leben als
Musikerinnen, von Auftritten in verräucherten Clubs und chronischem
Geldmangel. Ich war schon beim ersten Hören von dem Song angetan und
mag ihn auch jetzt noch sehr.
The Ransom
i'll
pay the rent
you pay the ransom if you can
by accident
we're down
we're down to our last cent
you pay the ransom if you can
by accident
we're down
we're down to our last cent
the
money ain't coming in like i hoped
and all this smoke
is like a hammer in my throat
it's only rock and roll
with a sold out show
darlin' please
can we go home
and all this smoke
is like a hammer in my throat
it's only rock and roll
with a sold out show
darlin' please
can we go home
quiet
down in front
gotta get through this before i burn out
hey mister don't you run this town
i can't hold my tongue
so bring the curtain down
gotta get through this before i burn out
hey mister don't you run this town
i can't hold my tongue
so bring the curtain down
the
money ain't coming in like i hoped
motor court hotels
are gonna confiscate my soul
it's gonna hurt like hell
when the story's too sad to be told
darlin' please
can we go home
motor court hotels
are gonna confiscate my soul
it's gonna hurt like hell
when the story's too sad to be told
darlin' please
can we go home
the
money ain't coming in like i hoped
we're a day too late
about a dollar too short
i'm run down drained
can't give it no more
darlin' please
can we go home
we're a day too late
about a dollar too short
i'm run down drained
can't give it no more
darlin' please
can we go home
Ja, ist wirklich ein wunderschöner Song...
