Johnny Clegg & Savuka - These Days from Heat, Dust And Dreams 1993
Yashimbawula! (the watchman's fire is burning) What happened to the diamonds in your eyes, What happened to the hunger for the day's chase? What happened to the electric smile That danced across your face We used to talk about changing the world Now all you want to do is change your name Come on baby don't surrender now to the empty heart of these days. We used to talk so deep into the night You had the heart of a wild horse running You bared your soul to me and we both knew these days were coming Chorus: These days -- blood in the heavens These days -- fire and ice These days -- burning streets and visions These days -- of the loveless child Yashimbawula! You were the reason I came here You will always be the one I am looking for I can't stand to see the way these days are pushing you against the wall Got to get up, got to move out Face the tide beyond the door Outside there's a whole world changing We can't stand here, trapped inside Let's step out and test the weazther Hang on baby, it's going to ge a rough ride thru' Chorus These days -- searching for a vision These days -- gun metal blue These days -- changing my religion These days -- heartless and cruel say the words and fill my sails I will love you through the coming gale we'll get through the darkest heart of these days "It's killing time" Who will watch the watchers? Who will keep the keepers? Who will love the lovers -- could you? Chorus....

These Days / In diesen Tagen
Yashimbawula! Das Feuer des Wachmanns brennt!
Was ist mit den Diamanten in Deinen Augen geschehen? Was ist mit diesem Hunger nach dem Leben passiert? Was ist mit deinem elektrisierenden Lächeln, das Dein Leben über Dein Gesicht tanzen lassen hat? Wir haben immer darüber geredet, die Welt zu verändern jetzt ist alles was Du verändern willst Dein Name (heiraten). Mensch, ergib Dich doch jetzt nicht einfach dem leeren Herz dieser Tage! Wir haben immer bis spät in die Nacht geredet Du hattest das Herz eines rennenden Wildpferds Du hast mir Dein Herz offenbart und wir wussten beide, dass diese Tage kommen würden
Chorus: Diese Tage - Blut in den Himmeln Diese Tage - Feuer und Eis Diese Tage - brennende Straßen und Visionen Diese Tage - des ungeliebten Kinds
Du warst der Grund, warum ich hierher gekommen bin, Du wirst immer die sein, nach der ich suche. Ich kann es nicht aushalten, mitanzusehen, wie diese Tage Dich mit dem Rücken an die Wand drängen. Du musst aufstehen, Du musst da raus Sieh der Strömung jenseits der Tür ins Auge Da draussen verändert sich eine ganze Welt Wir können nicht hier drinnen bleiben, wie gefangen Lass uns rausgehen und das Wetter auf die Probe stellen Halt Dich fest, es wird ein schwerer Ritt da hindurch werden!
Chorus: Diese Tage - Suche nach einer Vision Diese Tage - blau wie das Metall eines Gewehrs Diese Tage - die meinen Glauben verändern Diese Tage - herzlos und grausam
Sag die Worte und fülle meine Segel ich werde Dich auch durch den kommenden Sturm lieben. Wir werden durch das dunkelste Herz dieser Tage müssen.
"Es ist die Zeit des Tötens" Wer wird die Beobachter beobachten? Wer wird die Wächter bewachen? Wer wird die Liebenden lieben - könntest Du es tun?

HOLY SHIT, this is an(other) awesome song from Johnny Clegg!! I haven't heard it before, but I *adore* him...please keep posting them!!! God, he's too cool!!!!!
I had my 2008 School half yearly (towards my HSC) today. This was the song they played, along with, THE OWLS GO, and some other random one, and two songs of the same theme, one sounded like zelda. lol, pretty sure it was the same disc as the one for the HSC. anyone got an idea?
It's better than gimme more with Brittney, or Paris Hilton singing for sure. Be forewarned, many of the songs thought cool today you will laugh at too 10 years from now, or if you don't & still think it's cool, your kids will laugh at them. That's life. I still like this song..
