Richard Thompson
Mystery Wind

Mystery wind blowing tonight
Driving rain, close up tight
Don't leave a crack for the rain to get in
Don't leave a hole for the mystery wind

Hi folks,

A few more for the collection, all with windy titles:









I was also intending to add Ears of Tin but, would you adam and eve it, there's no Youtube for it! To verify its breezy credentials:

Finally (for now), I'm surprised nobody has thought of adding this (or similar) before. Maybe you're all more sane ??? :



Cheers,
Jioffe.

Eric Clapton
Blow Wind Blow


Blow wind, blow wind
Blow my baby back to me
Blow wind, blow wind
Blow my baby back to me
Well you know if I don't soon find her, I will be in misery

Muddy Waters



Led Zeppelin
Achilles Last Stand


Oh to ride the wind To tread the air above the din
Oh to laugh aloud, Dancing as we fought the crowd

Earth, stream and tree encircled by sea
Waves sweep the sand from my island.
My sunsets fade.
Field and glade wait only for rain
Grain after grain love erodes my
High weathered walls which fend off the tide
Cradle the wind to my island.

Island album by KC talks of Baleares Islands (Formentera, Ibiza : the hippiest island over the earth ;D ), and which are sited in my country . I honestly think the whole is a gem, and Robert Fripp's guitar work is insuperable.

Charlie, the three songs have been some fairly fantastic windy finds for me. :P

Sailor's Tale, a song we can enjoy the Fripp's astonishing guitar work with, I was discussing on my previous post. ::)



What a cock-up!! Sorry my dear comrades, my head or brain has betrayed me, this one was for the ships hub, :-[

this one is at last right, i hope ;D
Neil Young - Thraser

Where the vulture glides descending
On an asphalt highway bending
Thru libraries and museums, galaxies and stars
Down the windy halls of friendship
To the rose clipped by the bullwhip
The motel of lost companions
Waits with heated pool and bar.

Songs List updated also incorporating the jokin' fart Mister Methane ;D
154 SONGS POSTED SO FAR!!

Well I married me a wife, she's been trouble all my life
Run me out in the cold rain and snow
Rain and snow, run me out in the cold rain and snow

Well she's coming down the stairs, combin' back her yellow hair
And I ain't goin be treated this ol' way

Well she went up to her room where she sang her faithful tune
Well I'm goin where those chilly winds don`t blow

155 songs of winds ;D

Van Morrison - Moondance ::)


Well, it's a marvelous night for a moondance
with the stars up above in your eyes
a fantabulous night to make romance
'neath the cover of october skies
and all the leaves on the trees are falling
to the sound of the breezes that blow

One terrific song which nobody still spotted ::)

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have you found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

Rush
Time Stand Still


I turn my back to the wind
To catch my breath before I start off again
Driven on without a moment to spend
To pass an evening with a drink and a friend

Time and Motion

Time and motion

Wind and sun and rain
Days connect like boxcars in a train
Fill them up with precious cargo
Squeeze in all that you can find
Spontaneous elation
And the long enduring kind

Ray Davies - No One Listens

Blame the hurricane, blame the drug trade, the economy
Blame the ghettos in the land of the free
'Cos they ain't gonna listen to me
They ain't gonna listen to me

AWESOME SONG!!! check it out!


Bloodrock - A Fantastic Piece Of Architecture


A man on the hill,
Gazing down the hillside,
His look of lost and lonely feeling.
He waits for the wind,
To catch the grass behind him,
His look is oh so revealing,
Such a fantastic piece of architecture,
Fantastic piece of architecture.

Al Stewart
Flying Sorcery


You wrapped me up in a leather coat
And you took me for a ride
We were drifting with the tail-wind
When the runway came in sight
The clouds came up to gather us
And the cock-pit turned to white
When I looked the sky was empty



Roads To Moscow

The morning road leads to Stalingrad, and the sky is softly humming
Two broken Tigers on fire in the night flicker their souls to the wind

Gordon Lightfoot
A Message To The Wind


Hold my hand, so I can hold you in my heart
Hold my hand, so I can guide you through the forest of the night
By the sea upon the raging tide

A message to the wind
I must begin to write of love and rain


Sea Of Tranquilty


There's fireflies dancing in the cool evening breeze
There's love and romancin' as nice as you please
There's otters and frogs and spotted ground hogs

Astonishing Who's song from Quadrophenia mentioning a windy cite

My jacket's gonna be cut slim and checked
Maybe a touch of seersucker with an open neck
I ride a G.S. scooter with my hair cut neat
I wear my wartime coat in the wind and sleet.

Great Gordon's songs, thanks Charlie. :P

all winds songs updated on the list comin' to 167 ones. Grand!

San Jacinto - Peter Gabriel



Medicine man lead me up through town - Indian ground - so far down
Cut up land - each house - a pool - kids wearing water wings - drink in cool
Follow dry river bed - watch Scout and Guides make pow-wow signs
Past Geronimo's disco - Sit 'n' Bull steakhouse - white men dream
A rattle in the old man's sack - look at mountain top - keep climbing up
Way above us the desert snow - white wind blow

Come on and play with us, hard core Tull fans of this world. :()

You can hide 'neath your covers and study your pain
Make crosses from your lovers, throw roses in the rain
Waste your summer praying in vain for a saviour to rise from these streets
Well now I'm no hero, that's understood
All the redemption I can offer, girl, is beneath this dirty hood
With a chance to make it good somehow
Hey what else can we do now
Except roll down the window and let the wind blow back your hair
Well the night's bustin' open, these two lanes will take us anywhere
We got one last chance to make it real
To trade in these wings on some wheels
Climb in back, heaven's waiting down on the tracks

Paul, this goes for you ;)
