ah fkk ah fkk.. ya da Pulp / Common People

[[fkk]] çok sever.

She came from Greece, she had a thirst for knowledge / She studied sculpture at Saint Martin’s College / That’s where I caught her eye / She told me that her Dad was loaded / I said “In that case I’ll have rum and coca-cola / She said “fine” / And then in 30 seconds time she said / “I want to live like common people / I want to do whatever common people do / I want to sleep with common people / I want to sleep with common people like you” / Well what else could I do? / I said “I’ll see what I can do” / I took her to a supermarket / I don’t know why / but I had to start it somewhere / so it started there / I said “pretend you’ve got no money” / but she just laughed / and said “oh you’re so funny” / I said “Yeah / Well I can’t see anyone else smiling in here / Are you sure / you want to live like common people / you want to see whatever common people see / you want to sleep with common people / you want to sleep with common people like me?” / But she didn’t understand / she just smiled and held my hand / Rent a flat above a shop / Cut your hair and get a job / Smoke some fags and play some pool / Pretend you never went to school / But still you’ll never get it right / ‘cos when you’re laid in bed at night / watching roaches climb the wall / if you called your dad he could stop it all / yeah / You’ll never live like common people / You’ll never do whatever common people do / You’ll never fail like common people / You’ll never watch your life slide out of view / and then dance and drink and screw / because there’s nothing else to do / Sing along with the common people / Sing along and it might just get you through / Laugh along with the common people / Laugh along although they’re laughing at you / and the stupid things that you do / because you think that poor is cool / Like a dog lying in a corner / they will bite you and never warn you / Look out / they’ll tear your insides out / ‘cos everybody hates a tourist / especially one who thinks / it’s all such a laugh / yeah and the chip stain’s grease / will come out in the bath / You will never understand / how it feels to live your life / with no meaning or control / and with nowhere left to go / You are amazed that they exist / and they burn so bright / whilst you can only wonder why / Rent a flat above a shop / Cut your hair and get a job / Smoke some fags and play some pool / Pretend you never went to school / But still you’ll never get it right / ’cause when you’re laid in bed at night / watching roaches climb the wall / if you called your dad he could stop it all / yeah / You’ll never live like common people / You’ll never do whatever common people do / You’ll never fail like common people / You’ll never watch your life slide out of view / and then dance and drink and screw / ‘because there’s nothing else to do / I want to live with common people like you…..

King of Pain / The Police

Bir yanlış anlaşılma olmasın – ben iyiyim ama şarkı da öyle güzel ki, hatırlatmadan edemedim…

King of Pain / The Police

There’s a little black spot on the sun today
It’s the same old thing as yesterday
There’s a black hat caught in a high tree top
There’s a flag-pole rag and the wind won’t stop

I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running ’round my brain
I guess I’m always hoping that you’ll end this reign
But it’s my destiny to be the king of pain
There’s a little black spot on the sun today
That’s my soul up there
It’s the same old thing as yesterday
That’s my soul up there
There’s a black hat caught in a high tree top
That’s my soul up there
There’s a flag-pole rag and the wind won’t stop
That’s my soul up there
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running ’round my brain
I guess I’m always hoping that you’ll end this reign
But it’s my destiny to be the king of pain
There’s a fossil that’s trapped in a high cliff wall
That’s my soul up there
There’s a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall
That’s my soul up there
There’s a blue whale beached by a springtime’s ebb
That’s my soul up there
There’s a butterfly trapped in a spider’s web
That’s my soul up there
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running ’round my brain
I guess I’m always hoping that you’ll end this reign
But it’s my destiny to be the king of pain
There’s a king on a throne with his eyes torn out
There’s a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt
There’s a rich man sleeping on a golden bed
There’s a skeleton choking on a crust of bread
King of pain

There’s a red fox torn by a huntsman’s pack
That’s my soul up there
There’s a black-winged gull with a broken back
That’s my soul up there
There’s a little black spot on the sun today
It’s the same old thing as yesterday

I have stood here before in the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running ’round my brain
I guess I always thought you could end this reign
But it’s my destiny to be the king of pain
King of pain
King of pain
King of pain
I’ll always be king of pain

Fallen Angels - http://www.sensesofcinema.com/contents/01/13/wong-symposium.htmlBugün blog yazma günüm. Bir önceki mesajda da belirttiğim üzere, akşamları pek de öyle Bir film koyayım da, seyre dalalım seçeneği açık olmuyor (Inactive). Hal böyle olunca da, şöyle güzel bir çözüm buldum: sevdiğim filmlerden birini koyuyorum, o arka planda oynarken ben arada ona takılıyorum, sonra yine işimin başına dönüyorum, film kendi yolunda, ben kendi yolumda seyrediyoruz, bir 10 dakika sonra yine yollar kesişiyor, vs.. Mesela geçen hafta çoktandır izlemediğim My Sassy Girl’ü (Hırçın Sevgilim / Yeopgijeogin geunyeo) (2001) taktım, ilaç gibi geldi (başta yazdıklarımla çelişecek olsa da, dürüstlükten şaşmamak lazım: My Sassy Girl’ü aslında öncülü (prequel) mantığıyla çekilmiş ve gerçekten çok çok kötü bir film olan Windstruck’ın (Nae yeojachingureul sogae habnida) (2004) bıraktığı kötü tadı silmek için tekrardan izlemiştim – yani öyle zaman yok filan diyoruz ama işin içine Ji-hyun Jun girince de vakit bulunuyor. 8)

Faye Wong - http://www.milinkito.com/cine100/?id=59Evvelsi akşam Ece’yi yatırmıştık, biz de biraz öyle böyle uyukluyor gibiyken, aklıma Chungking Express (Chung Hing sam lam) (1994) ama özellikle Faye Wong geldi, hemen soundtrack’ini başlattım ama müzik tek başına yeterli gelmedi, filmi de peşisıra başlattım böylelikle. Filmin ilk bölümünden çok az şey aklımda kalmış ilginç oldu. Çok çok güzel.

Chungking Express - http://www.lovehkfilm.com/reviews_2/chungking_express.htmAkabinde, doğal olarak Kar Wai Wong’um “geldi”. Yani, Kar Wai Wong deyince tabii ki In The Mood for Love (Fe yeung nin wa) (2000), yok efendim 2046 (2004), ama benim favorilerim daha vahşi, daha çiğ, ham filmleri mesela Fallen Angels (Duo luo tian shi) (1995), hele de jilet gibi Happy Together (Chun gwong cha sit) (1997) – bu filmde daha hemen başında çaktırmadan, bilinç altına usulca sızdırılan Caetano Veloso’nun Cucurrucucu Paloma‘sı, sonra filmin sonlarına doğru oğlanın Tony Leung’un ses kaydını dinlediği sahne.. bu filmden nasıl sağ kalarak çıktım, bilemem.

Haftaya Löker’le 3 Kar Wai Wong bir arada günü yapmayı planlıyoruz. Ve evet, yukarıdaki filmler..

Filmleri seyretmiş olan şanslı kesim olur a, bir gün bu girişe denk gelirler diye, vaktiyle vardıkları o tadı biraz hatırlatsın diye, aşağıya filmlerin soundtrack’lerinden seçtiğim 3-5 şarkıyı koyuyorum. Yine çok düşük kaliteye (64KBPS) sıkıştırdım, kusura bakmayacaksınız artık.

Chungking Express

Fallen Angels

Eskiden (biz lisedeyken, üniversitedeyken) şimdinin (daha doğrusu geçen senenin) Faithless’ı neyse, işte o zamanın da Tricky’si vardı. Bu amca 1995’te Whale diye çok çok çok iyi bir grubun (ki tutunamadılar) We Care albümüne yardım etmişti (ilk CD’lerimden biridir). Fallen Angels’ın soundtrack’i bana fena halde o albümden Tryzasnice’ı hatırlatmıştı. Bir de, hep söylerim, Fallen Angels’ı uykusuz bir gecede seyretmiştim ve filmle frekansımız tam tutmuştu (Böylesi bir durum bir kere de Richard Linklater’ın Waking Life (2001)‘ında gerçekleşmişti).

Happy Together

Ne söylenebilir ki… O zaman 1!2!3!4!

Happy Together (orig. by Nylons)

Imagine me and you, i do
I think about you day and night, its only right
To think about the girl you love
and hold her tight
So happy together

If i should call you up, invest a dime
and you say you belong to me, I’d lose my mind
Imagine how the world could be so very fine
So happy together

I can’t see me lovin’ nobody but you
For all my life
When you’re with me, baby the skies will be blue
For all my life

Me and you and you and me
no matter how they toss the dice, it had to be
The only one for me is you and you for me
So happy together
(3 more times)

So happy together (8 times)

Sonradan aklıma gelen gereksiz bilgi: Kar Wai Wong’un görüntü yönetmeni Christopher Doyle’u çok severim ben, müthiş Paris Je T’aime (2006)‘deki en anlamadığım segment’i o çekmiş olsa da! 😉

Faye Wong

Sene 1996 – ne çok şey oldu sene 1996’da.

(Dün eski defterleri karıştırdım)

Geçen aydı sanırım, Morissette’in “Head over Feet”ini bir şekilde terennüm etmiş idim (Bu arada, bağlantı yapmak için ilgili girişi aradığımdı, geçen ay sandığım şeyin nisanın başı olduğunu görüp, tam bir dumura uğradım (total eclipse)). Hazır Emir de yurda geliyor, alınız size sene 1996, Skunk Anansie, Twisted (Everyday Hurts), Stoosh.

Skunk Anansie
Twisted (Everyday Hurts/ Skunk Anansie
I cried on my blood day
There was nothing that I
Could hold on to
Just a line could have helped
Remind me of you, of you

I screamed till the blood came
I was living in a cloud of hope
Lover’s kiss then they make a wish
To the end, they pretend

Everyday hurts a little more
Everyday hurts a little more
And I’ll do anything
Yes I’ll do anything
To belong
To be strong
To say there’s nothing wrong
Everyday hurts a little more
Everyday hurts a little more
And I’ll do anything
Yes I’ll do anything
To belong
To be strong
To say there’s nothing wrong
Everyday hurts

I cried in the sunlight
Would I fake all the times I loved you
Just to play in a game of twisted with you
With you
I need to believe you
Sacrificed all the lies we made up
How we kissed then we made our wish
to the end, to the end

Everyday hurts a little more
Everyday hurts a little more
And I’ll do anything
Yes I’ll do anything
To belong
To be strong
To say there’s nothing wrong
Everyday hurts a little more
Everyday hurts a little more
And I’ll do anything
Yes I’ll do anything
To belong
To be strong
To say there’s nothing wrong
Everyday hurts

Time made me confide in you
So contrived were the words you sold me
Now nothing can swallow
The feeling so shallow inside

Eki DG 2006Geçen sene Nisan’ın 21’i cuma gününe denk geliyordu. Bir gün öncesinde Bengü’yle kontrole gitmiştik, doktor sancı olmadığını, daha en az bir haftamız olduğundan filan bahsetmişti. Ben de, hal böyle olunca, o zamanlar iki-üç haftadır yaptığım gibi, o cuma da [[fch]]’a gideyim demiştim. Eki’nin de doğum günü 24 Nisan ya, bir de pasta aldım, onu da biraz erken kutlarız deyu. Sol tarafta gördüğünüz pasta o pasta, gün o gün. Biz pastayı kestik mi, kesmedik mi, hatırlamıyorum şimdi ama kısa bir süre sonra benim telefon çaldı, Bengü müjdeli haberi verdi. O zaman da dediğim üzere, meğer Eki o gün bir başkasının doğum günü pastasının mumunu üflemiş! 8)

Dün, bütün gün aklımdaydı, arayayım da adamın doğum gününü kutlayayım diyordum, bir türlü denk getirip de arayamadık Bengü’yle, nihayet gece 11.30’da, yatmadan evvel bir SMS salladım kendisine, akabinde de aradı, çocuklar gibi şendi, hala kutlamalardaymış (Bizim bir de fi tarihinde Eki’yle kafaları çekip Bengü’yü aramamız vardır, meşhur 8). Ne diyeyim, iyi ki doğdun Eki!

Eki üzgün-neşeli harman Alanis Morissette şarkıları gibidir, genelde hüzünlüdür ama neşelidir de (çok açıklayıcı oldu). Yazdık madem, sonunu da getirelim: Sevgili okurlar, Kanada’dan Alanis’ten bilişimsel görevini İstanbul’da yapmakta olan Eki için geliyor yalnızca:

Alanis Morissette / Ironic / Jagged Little Pill

An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It’s a black fly in your Chardonnay
It’s a death row pardon two minutes too late
Isn’t it ironic … don’t you think

Chorus

It’s like rain on your wedding day
It’s a free ride when you’ve already paid
It’s the good advice that you just didn’t take
Who would’ve thought … it figures

Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
‘Well isn’t this nice…’
And isn’t it ironic … don’t you think
Repeat Chorus

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything’s okay and everything’s going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything’s gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face

It’s a traffic jam when you’re already late
It’s a no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It’s like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It’s meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn’t it ironic… don’t you think
A little too ironic… and yeah I really do think…
Repeat Chorus

Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
Helping you out

Hakikaten de life has a funny way of sneaking up on you, life has a funny, funny way of helping you out, değil mi Ekin’im? 8)
