to guide him
Ich habe nie an einen Gott geglaubt, den ich hätte "Wieso?* fragen, den ich hätte für grausam oder sadistisch, aber auch nicht für liebwollend und schlussendlich gerecht halten können. Wie es Nick Cave so schön sagt, ich habe nie an einen in das Geschehen eingreifenden Gott geglaubt. Doch ich habe mich nie von Gott verlassen gefühlt. Ich hatte in meinem Leben das Glück, nie mein Ur-Vertrauen verloren zu haben. Bei aller möglichen menschlichen Mysere hatte ich irgendwie immer das Gefühl, teil eines Stroms zu sein, mit dem Fluss der Dinge zu gehen. Ich hatte immer ein Herz erwärmendes Gefühl einer leichten Strömung, die mich teilweise mitträgt. Nennt man dieses Gefühl Freude, Liebe, Glaube? Ich weiss es nicht... Ich weiss aber, dass es mich schon ein Leben lang begleitet und zum Glück niemals ganz verlassen hat, selbst in den allerschlimmsten Zeiten. Etwas, weit über den Instinkt hinaus, etwas Geistiges, Mystisches. Diese Strömung: Manchmal zwang sie mich, gegen einer viel grösseren Strömung zu schwimmen, die so viele Menschen um mir herum zu folgen schienen. Manchal fühlte es sich auch kurz so an, als würde ich immer im Kreise schwimmen, in einer riesigen Schüssel voller Joghurt. Aber am Schluss fühlte es sich immer richtig an, wie schwierig es auch sein mochte. Am Schluss hatte ich immer das Gefühl, es gäbe was grösseres als mich und meine Probleme. Und ich hatte das Gefühl, das Vermächtnis der Zeiten würde mir schlussendlich den Weg weisen. Denn am Ende, sind wir nichts als ein Sandkorn in einem Ozean der Zeit. Und dieser Ozean hält wahrscheinlich etwas für uns bereit, dass wir uns noch gar nicht zu vorstellen in der Lage sind.
Listening Wind == Talking Heads
Produced by Brian Eno
Mojique sees his village from a nearby hill
Mojique thinks of days before Americans came
He sees the foreigners in growing numbers
He sees the foreigners in fancy houses
He thinks of days that he can still remember...now.
Mojique holds a package in his quivering hands
Mojique sends the package to the American man
Softly he glides along the streets and alleys
Up comes the wind that makes them run for cover
He feels the time is surely now or never...more.
The wind in my heart
The wind in my heart
The dust in my head
The dust in my head
The wind in my heart
The wind in my heart
(Come to) Drive them away
Drive them away.u
Mojique buys equipment in the market place
Mojique plants devices in the free trade zone
He feels the wind is lifting up his people
He calls the wind to guide him on his mission
He knows his friend the wind is always standing...by.
Mojique smells the wind that comes from far away
Mojique waits for news in a quiet place
He feels the presence of the wind around him
He feels the power of the past behind him
He has the knowledge of the wind to guide him...on.
The wind in my heart
The wind in my heart
The dust in my head
The dust in my head
The wind in my heart
The wind in my heart
(Come to) Drive them away
Drive them away.

all undergrounders
Bottomliners == Brian Eno
Great lines of numbers
All bright and shiny
All through the ether
Some huge, some tiny
All though the ether
From France to China
Unite the people
All bottomliners
Some brass, some paper,
Some gold, some silver,
Some full of promise,
Some full of anger,
In ranks of thousands
They fall and stumble
All bottomliners
We make the number
And in the future,
New forms of romance:
Grenade and landmine
In twilit silence
With hands that tremble
And lives that flounder
All bottomliners
All undergrounders
All undergrounders
All undergrounders
All undergrounders
All you undergrounders, you bottomliners, you borderliners...

ein weiterer Tag
Just Another Day == Brian Eno
Oh it's just another day,
It's just another day on Earth
Oh it's just another day,
Just another day,
It's just another day on Earth
Oh it's just another day on Earth
It's just another day on Earth
One day, we will put it all behind,
We'll say, that was just another time,
We'll say, that was just another day on Earth
We'll say, that was just another time,
One day, we will put it all behind,
We'll say, that was just another day on Earth
Just another day,
It's just another day,
Oh it's just another day on Earth
It's just another day on Earth
Ein weiterer Tag, auf dem Weg zu dem einen Tag.
Eines Tages, meine Prinzessin, eines Tages...

Cover Girl - Natural Grace
Babyface == U2
Produced by Brian Eno
Watching your bright blue eyes
In the freeze frame
I've seen them so many times
I feel like I must be your best friend
You're looking fine, so fine, oh my
Dressed up like a lovely day, oh
Babyface, babyface
Slow down child, let me untie your lace
Babyface, babyface
Cover girl with natural grace
How could beauty be so kind
To an ordinary guy
Coming home late at night
To turn you on
Checking out every frame
I've got slow motion on my side
Turning around and around
With the sound and colour
Under my control, go
Round and around, going down
Dressed up like a lovely day
Babyface, babyface
Tin foil hair all tied up in lace
Babyface, babyface
Bitter sweet girl won't you give me a taste
How could beauty be so kind
To an ordinary guy
Do do do do do do do do do...do do...
Do do do do do do do do do...do do...
Babyface, babyface
Slow down child, let me untie your lace
Babyface, babyface
Open the door, let me unpack my case
Babyface, babyface
You're everywhere child
You're all over the place
Babyface, babyface
You're coming to me from outer-space
Hou could beauty be so kind
to an ordinary guy
