Thirteen horses
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylSmW8RjVVs
Johanna tipsade om en låt i sin bilddagbok, och efter att ha lyssnat igenom den bara en gång så sitter den som berget. Handlar om tretton hästar som är med om en olycka och blir övergivna av sina ägare, där i vattnet. Liksom med Balladen om Briggen Blue Bird är det en låt som får en alldeles tårögd. Ah, jag älskar sådan här musik.
13 horses swimming in the sea
Waiting for someone to find them
Their ship is gone
and now they are alone
With water everywhere around them
The men were saved
from the sinking ship
Right before it started to burn
And while they’re safe
their loyal friends need help
Patiently waiting for their turn
13 horses swimming in the sea
They don’t even know it’s pointless
Their pride remains
but this time it won’t help
They used to be so tall
and suddenly they’re small
There’s a couple waiting far behind
Soon they will be out of sight
But then who cares –
they’re dying anyway
All of them are doomed this night
11 horses swimming in the sea
The sea they thought was just a river
They’re used to this
it’s probably just a race
That helps to ease their minds
But where’s the finish line?
The night grows dark
The body wants to rest
It hurts to breathe
and still they do their best
They want to live
no matter for how long
Their thoughts all disappeared
‘Cause now they’re really scared
7 horses struggling in the sea
Waiting for someone to find them
They don’t look back
‘cause what’s the point of that
There is only death behind them
They cry for help
but help will never come
They don’t know where to swim
or what they’re swimming from
They try to swim some more
when panic starts to spread
They’re swimming in to shore
but only in their heads
The 3 last horses
Dying in the sea
Shouting out their cries for no one
They’re born to win
they’re screaming in their hearts
The strength of thousand men
They’re fighting to the end
The sun is out
Birds are everywhere
They’re flying high
surfing in the air
It’s nice to live
when life is such a blast
One horse still swims
it seems to be the last
The thirteenth horse
has always been the best
His owner will be proud
But now he wants to rest
He’s longing for his home
The girl will give him food
“Good boy” - she’ll say
together they will play
13 horses swimming in the sea
Soon they will be gone forever
And while they swim,
One thing still remains
And that’s the hope that never dies
It never dies
It never dies
PS; Upptäckte att jag använde samma bild som Johanna till den här låten xD Googlade du också på swimming horse?

Comment the photo
Jag med, men samtidigt behärskar han ju språket. Han skulle utan problem kunna göra sig förstådd i England, även om engelsmännen direkt skulle höra att han inte är därifrån. Men att kräva att skandinaver ska prata engelska som engelsmän är kanske lite väl mycket begärt xD
*gilla*
fast den låten du länkade gillade jag inte, kan ha något med rybaks röst att göra. fast texten gjorde lite ont i hjärtat :(
bob dylan har massor med sådana låtar man blir helt ledsen av (ingen överraskning va?) moonshiner! fast det är en cover... dirge, blind willie mctell, sara, wedding song, when he returns, not dark yet, standing in the doorway...etc
"Karl stod surrad, och glömdes ombord" ;______________;<br />
<br />
Jag har som vanligt lite problem med folk som sjunger på engelska när de inte behärskar språket, så det var lite störigt. xD<br />
<br />
Ska kolla upp de låtarna in other words ^^
Svarta Hingsten är i och för sig en ungdomsbok, men jag har inte läst den så jag tänkte mer på filmen (som inte direkt är en barnfilm).
Men jag håller faktiskt med; låten är mer rörande om den bara är fristående. Men jag kan inte låta bli att tänka på filmen när jag hör de första raderna xD
Jag googlade på swimming horse, men bilden jag hittade var i färg så jag svartvitade och modifierade den en aning i paint. Men det kan nog vara samma originalbild om det är så att du också mixtrat med den i efterhand. Roligt att vi har samma smak när det gäller bilder xD
*skrattar åt Minettes kommentar*
