fleetwood mac / the green manalishi

Tiré du documentaire "fleetwood mac: the early years". Faites de beaux rêves...

From the documentary "fleetwood mac: the early years". Have a good dream...

lyrics/paroles:

Now, when the day goes to sleep and the full moon looks
The night is so black that the darkness cooks
Don't you come creepin' around - makin' me do things I don't want to

Can't believe that you need my love so bad
Come sneakin' around tryin' to drive me mad
Bustin' in on my dreams - making me see things I don't wanna see

break:

'Cause you're da Green Manalishi with the two prong crown
All my tryin' is up - all your bringin' is down
Just taking my love then slippin' away
Leavin' me here just tryin' to keep from following you

This is why another famous band's cover misses the mark. They uptempo the riff and take away anything that was gloomy, and dark. Actually this version is tame compared to the single. The single is still disturbing to listen to today. Yet this song was five-ten years ahead of it's time in terms of British bands such as Queen, or Iron Maiden. Peter Green invented 1980's British Heavy Metal :).

legends never die

From wikipedia: Peter Green has explained that he wrote the song after experiencing a drug-induced dream, in which he was visited by a green dog which barked at him. He understood that the dog represented money. "It scared me because I knew the dog had been dead a long time. It was a stray and I was looking after it. But I was dead and had to fight to get back into my body, which I eventually did. When I woke up, the room was really black and I found myself writing the song."

legends are made by minds needin' em or requiring 'em as a monument or sentinalian guidepost to keep things rolling. peter green walked to his own boogie, and needed only his god to help him and really good friends.when he pulled his head outta his ass.

How the fuck he wrote this and got that band to translate it into the sound he wanted is nothing short of a miracle. As musicians go ... Peter Green has surely got to be up there. Maybe he'll become a legend when he dies because he fucking deserves to be.. But he's still alive people. And Mick, John and Danny .. this was your finest hour!
