Montt Mardie - Come On Eileen

[ellensberg]

det här är ju helt genialiskt!

[Lindex97]

Fin! ;D

[wi11e1]

Min gamla musiklärare han e grym

[komigenhanna]

det finns en hit av Dexy's Midnight Runners som heter just Come On Eileen, där Hellström antagligen fått sin inspiration... just so you know. Översättningen har skett från engelska till svenska, och inte tvärtom (i alla fall namnet på låten).

[1983timberland]

@komigenhanna Tror även han har hämtat inspiration från The Jam med "Town Called Malice" men förmodligen även från "Come On Eileen"!

[Kalfastehpro]

Wicked song, who is singing?

[harboee]

montt mardie is singing, it is a cover on one of the most popular singers in Sweden, Håkan Hellström the song "Kom igen Lena"

[huurricane]

Denna är underbar. Förstår inte hur man kan lyckas med en bra cover/omarbetning av Kom igen Lena.. Borde vara omöjligt, men han lyckas..

[hybrism]

Good work on the lyrics. Some corrections:

'well I couldn't care less today'

'he's written poetry'

'with hearts just like riddles'

[cmarkgren]

I see

How the Presley-boys throw over lillies

Two girls from the second street

with a heart just like Willy's?

While I go on by the shadow tracks

thinking to myself

One day I will

find my way back.

[cmarkgren]

I'm not sure about the start, but I think I've got the rest of it..

Pat's seen the games we play, cold girls, dance away

He's wooden poetry

She's leaving suddenly

Out to the steady beat

down with my body

up on the shimny tops

over the city

[ohliwiah]

after that i just can't hear what he sings! and i don't think that this is completely right, but well, i did my best.

[ohliwiah]

oh come on eileen what else could we do now oh come on eileen come on eileen don't you give up now you're just one of one million girls the millons that i dreamt of don't try to catch me it won't matter what you do i know this whole town just adores you come on eileen what else could we do now oh come on eileen

[ohliwiah]

stop dreaming about the delightful (don't know what he sings here) we'll never reach it girl never say you're sorry for all the things that never happened they'll eat you while you try to sleep how clearly i can see that something so close can be so hard to reach i know that they're all just fantasies now she's in me she always will be i know it's part of the stupid games that we play well i couldn't kill yesterday not when we're dancing and you're kissing me this way

[cmarkgren]

I think " the delightful" should be "la dolce vita"..

[karinselaker]

åh vad fint. särskilt kärleken mellan karim och jossan

[intrusive]

jossan <3 karim i AA

[Josefost]

OMG De är ju Komigen Lena med HÅkan, haha fattade inte de först! :)

[Josefost]

[BeforeRocknRoll]

[fuckmeimfake]

Sweet...Really really sweet

[BeforeRocknRoll]
