Roger Taylor - The Unblinking Eye (everything in Broken)

Roger heeft dus een nieuwe single uitgebracht, zoals al gemeld heeft dit nieuw nummer de titel The Unblinking Eye (Everything is Broken) mee gekregen en is een protest nummer over de Britse bijdrage in Afghanistan.

De single is te downloaden alleen via Queenonline.com

Onderstaand de tekst van het nummer.

The Unblinking Eye (Everything Is Broken), Roger Taylor.

God would weep
If he existed
And he saw what men can do to men
He'd think that we were twisted
His unblinking eye
Would blink and then
He'd say "not in my name you don't
You stupid little men
With your arrogance and ignorance
You do it time and time again", and

Ahhh I must be gettin' old
There's a fire and a fury
Driven deep into my soul
It's the helplessness that comes
From being under your control
And everything is broken

We have a high street full of holes
The high street's full o' holes
The high street's full o' holes!

Five million cameras stare at us
And treat us like we're fools
Our privacy is meaningless
We're suffocated by ten thousand rules
This kingdom's not united
Just a complicated mess
Are we in Europe? Half in Europe? Not in Europe?
We're soulless, spineless, directionless

Ahhh I must be gettin' old
There's a fire and a fury
Driven deep into my soul
It's the helplessness that comes
From being under your control
And everything is broken

(stylophone)

And everything is broken

Why send our young men out to die
In wars that we don't understand
Why on earth should we be meddling
In places like Afghanistan
The price is much too high
In terms of money or our precious men
Your reasons are mysterious
And quite beyond our ken

Ahhh I must be gettin' old
There's a fire and a fury
Driven deep into my soul
It's the helplessness that comes
You've even sold our gold
And everything is broken

klinkt goed...

Ik vind het een geweldig nummer! Bedankt voor de tip!!!!!

Graag gedaan, inderdaad een geweldig nummer

begin is goed maar wordt toch minder,ik denk geen succes in de hitparades

fuck de hit parades

Denk je nou echt dat Roger Taylor nog voor de hitparades schrijft/zingt? Ik heb het de afgelopen weken regelmatig even beluisterd en het blijft een prachtig nummer.

Inderdaad een prachtnummer en heldere, mooie tekst. Komt uit z'n tenen, zeggen ze dan.
