from Oannes *

Ώρα για ένα από τους επιφανέστερους του December club : είναι ο James Douglas Morrison, γεννημένος αυτό το μήνα πριν από 80 ακριβώς χρόνια. Ακούμε προς τιμήν του το αγαπημένο μου τραγούδι των Doors, συνοδευόμενο από ένα ανησυχητικά σύγχρονο “official video”.

Time for one of the most prominent members of the December club : James Douglas Morrison, born this month 80 years ago exactly. We hear in his honor my favorite Doors’ song, accompanied by a disturbingly contemporary “official video”.

❝ Strange days have found us
Strange days have tracked us down
They’re going to destroy
Our casual joys
We shall go on playing or find a new town
Yeah!
Strange eyes fill strange rooms
Voices will signal their tired end
The hostess is grinning
Her guests sleep from sinning
Hear me talk of sin
And you know this is it
Yeah!
Strange days have found us
And through their strange hours
We linger alone
Bodies confused
Memories misused
As we run from the day
To a strange night of stone ❞

Enjoy!

As always, I’m happy to hear your thoughts, however I’d highly recommend a direct dialogue with the …’source’ [why comments are closed here], so please visit Oannes’ page where you can also listen to the song!

* For my friends who didn’t know, or first timers here, Oannes [aka Socratis Papahatzis] is my husband, partner in life and music and the one with my undying admiration. Together we have a band MK-O [the music of Marina Kanavaki & Oannes]. So, it’s my pleasure to share with you his [and sometimes mine] musical selections. • Do visit his site. He has my highest recommendation!
