simon802 Can't stop singing that song... Even if I don't understand one single word of the lyrics. ^^
I only know, thanks to the Live at Wacken Festival, that this one "is a sad song". :) Favorite track: Saraca Inima me.

... After hearing Dirtylicious (a fine album that) I needed to hear more. At Bad Apples, I was hooked. What a kick arse sound. The energy, enthusiasm and vibrancy is intoxicating. When are you all touring down under? Bring it. Favorite track: Bad Apples.

Cyril Glaume Freak Show est un joyeux melting-pot de metal syncopé, de musiques folklo-balkaniques, d’électro dansante et de tout un tas d’autres composantes utilisées au meilleur de leurs possibilités, à situer entre Sybreed, Russkaja et Punish Yourself, plus la folie polymorphe de Spellbound Dazzle. On n’est pas très loin de la sphère nawak, et en plein dans le « Grand Sourire En Travers De La Trogne » metal !

Poesy Rider Jusqu'à présent, Dirty shirt m'avait laissé relativement indifférent, mais il faut bien reconnaître que certains morceaux de ce Freak show sont vachement accrocheurs. Ah, si jeunesse savait, si vieillesse pouvait... Favorite track: Bad Apples.

Ride 03:13
DIRTY SHIRT - RIDE Collect your gear Prepare for the ride Check your weapons We leave at first light. We've always fantasized about a journey like this To find the place of our hopes and dreams We'll ride until we reach the final destination So many thousand miles away from here. On we ride From sunrise To sunset Far and wide Come hell or High water Ride! We ride on desert lands and over mountain passes Defy the summer heat and winter cold There is no turning back, we're taking our chances Why should we stray away from our goal? On we ride From sunrise To sunset Far and wide Come hell or High water Ride! Right from the very start We followed our heart To take us far! To take us far!

Bad Apples 03:39
DIRTY SHIRT – BAD APPLES Why do you paint us like this? Why are you so mad? You soak the brush in venom to make us look so bad. You go and spread on TV only hate and lies. We're not all thieves and beggars. Stop wrecking minds! Ţine-o pe do Ţine-o pe si Ţine-o pe la mândruţa mea Ţine-o pe mi Ţine-o pe re Ţine-o intr-o petrecere. Ţine-o pe do Ţine-o pe si Ţine-o pe la mândruţa mea Ţine-o pe mi Ţine-o pe re Ţine-o pe re, mereu aşa. Take a good look at yourself Before you’re judging us. We all got some bad apples. You're making too much fuss! Let's get to know each other, leave hate behind Do not give in to ignorance, open your mind! Ţine-o pe do Ţine-o pe si Ţine-o pe la mândruţa mea Ţine-o pe mi Ţine-o pe re Ţine-o intr-o petrecere. Ţine-o pe do Ţine-o pe si Ţine-o pe la mândruţa mea Ţine-o pe mi Ţine-o pe re Ţine-o pe re, mereu aşa. Lalalala, lalala, … Oh, mamma mia, questa e la vita dolce ed amara ma sempre la vita. Ţine-o pe si Ţine-o pe la mândruţa mea Ţine-o pe mi Ţine-o pe re Ţine-o intr-o petrecere. Ţine-o pe do Ţine-o pe si Ţine-o pe la mândruţa mea Ţine-o pe mi Ţine-o pe re Ţine-o pe re, mereu aşa. Lalalala, lalala, …

Freak Show 03:31
DIRTY SHIRT - FREAK SHOW (LYRICS) I can't put up again with this freak show It makes me cringe and puke from the get-go, But all they want is give us a lot more, Rating and gain are cast in the main role. No end for the show It will be back on tomorrow To smash all the charts And crush all the hearts. It will be about ta da da da … And will be about ta da da da… No lie! No moral code applies to them at all I watch them toss the brain in a black hole Selling the show to fools is the main goal To get them hooked and easy to control. No end for the show It will be back on tomorrow To smash all the charts And crush all the hearts. It will be about ta da da da … And will be about ta da da da … No lie! I can't put up again with this freak show, But all they want is give us some more, I watch them toss the brain in a black hole Selling the show to fools is the goal. Ioi ioi ce a hi, astia ne-or innebuni

Trust Me 03:24
DIRTY SHIRT – TRUST ME I serve you my words on the TV, now they are your daily dish. Eat them hot and cold, sweet or salty, give in to my every wish. Now I'm gonna bring you up to speed on how you have to live your life. I tell you this is all you need: consume, work, shut up and die You know that you can trust me because I'm your best friend. Heed my words and believe me. Your future’s in my hand. No need to be a leopard to make you play my game, when I can be your shepherd and make you do the same. I will teach you how to be a sheep, let my wish be your command. I will tell you when to wake or sleep from now on until the end I'm gonna teach you how to be meek, to be always by my side. I will tell you when to laugh or weep, when you should live or die. You know that you can trust me because I'm your best friend. Heed my words and believe me. Your future’s in my hand. No need to be a leopard to make you play my game, when I can be your shepherd and make you do the same. Trust me, Trust me Yes ! You can trust me I serve you my words on the TV, now they are your daily dish. Eat them hot and cold, sweet or salty, give in to my every wish. Now I'm gonna bring you up to speed on how you have to live your life. I tell you this is all you need: consume, work, shut up and die You know you can trust me Shut up and die You know you can trust me Shut up and die You know that you can trust me because I'm your best friend. Heed my words and believe me. Your future’s in my hand. No need to be a leopard to make you play my game, when I can be your shepherd and make you do the same.

Away 03:53
DIRTY SHIRT - AWAY Caught in your game, I've been digging My own grave day in, day out Need to wake up Take my life back Leave the darkness far behind. You're the source of my disintegration Now it's time for our separation. Why don't you go away? Stop leading me astray Why don't you go away? I'm sick of all the pain. Caught in your game, I am breaking You were never on my side Need my life back You should leave now Shut the door on your way out. In my mind there is no hesitation Now it's time for our separation. Why don't you go away? Stop leading me astray Why don't you go away? I'm sick of all the pain.

DIRTY SHIRT - The Business of Life All my dreams fade away as life gets tougher every day. Work all day for an extra buck, hope I am never out of luck. The deadline's always yesterday, the game of life is hard to play. After the banks knock at my door, you gotta pick me off the floor. I, I am dreaming about a different world where everybody has time to live their lives. My life is more than pain... my life is more than pain. My dreams are not for sale... my dreams are not for sale. I wake up and go to bed with my mind on the daily bread. No time for family and friends. The circus never seems to end. I am caught in this routine, and sometimes feel I cannot win. But my life can be more than this. I need to hang on to my dreams. I am dreaming about a different world where everybody has time to live their lives. My life is more than pain... my life is more than pain. My dreams are not for sale... my dreams are not for sale.

DIRTY SHIRT – NEVER SAY NEVER Now I know you were not the friend I needed by my side. All I saw, all I heard was nothing but a cruel disguise. You dragged me down, left me for dead. You didn't seem to mind. And now I have to pay the price for the mess you left behind. You swore you'll never stab me in the back, I believed your word, fell into your web. NEVER! NEVER! NEVER! Never say never I move on So do you There's nothing else that we can do. All is said, all is done. How could I ever trust in you? For my own sake I have to take your knife out of my back. The bridge is burned, now I have learned all the tricks in your bag. You swore you'll never stab me in the back, I believed your word, fell into your trap. NEVER! NEVER! NEVER! Never say never

DIRTY SHIRT - This Is the Day This is the day I finally break out and leave behind all fear and doubt. Another challenge, a new world awaits. The road is long, [there's] no time to waste. This is the day The day I run away This is the day I finally break out and realize what life's about. It's now or never to find my own place and put the smile back right on my face. This is the day The day I run away I'm ready for tomorrow. It's time for me to say goodbye to my past lost in sorrow. The gates of future open wide. I'm ready for a new dawn, and pray that luck is on my side. I'm leaving for my new home. Have to restore my piece of mind. This is the day The day I run away I run away I run away…

DIRTY SHIRT – SARACA INIMA ME Saraca inima me Fost-am la doctor cu ie La doftor si la potica Si mi-or zis ca n-am nimica Poticaru ce mi-o zis Ca leacuri la inima nu-s La inima este-un leac Cetera si omu drag Hai hai inima hai Inima de putregai Hai hai inima hai La multe rele ma dai Saraca inima me Iara-ncepe a ma dure

DIRTY SHIRT – EXTREME FUNKY DISCO We are stomping, we're moshing, and jumping, Adrenaline is pumped INTO OUR HEAD. We all escape to another dimension, We feel alive, revived, OUT OF CONTROL. We have a blast and the place is on fire, We are off the ground as we give in to the sound. Waves of emotion are taking us over, This is party time, the place is going wild! FUNKY DISCO FUNKY DISCO EXTREEEEEEME
