Luyện nghe bài hát Famine Reynolds Extended Mix

(O'Connor, Clayton, Simenon, Reynolds)

[The extended version of "Famine", released in 1995, the cd-single "Famine"]

There is more in us than we know about. The famine, happened 150 years ago.
It three lifetimes at most. that happen than were handed on from father
to son, from mother to daughter, down to this day. are within us now, and we
don with them. And it seems to me, this is what interesting about a lot
of Irish music now, that it is the for this kind of feeling, and for this
kind of emotion, that we have no other expression for it because we
deny it, we deny it. Our literature ....... doesn deal with this,
our sentiment doesn deal with this. But music, it in the music, it to me.
The culture can actually carry things in al kinds of visible ways, in gesture,
in movement, in language, in and in music.

Okay, I to talk about Ireland
Specifically I want to talk the "famine"
About the that there never really was one
was no "famine"
See people were only allowed to eat potatoes
All of the food, meat, fish, vegetables,
were shipped out of the country armed guard
To England the Irish people starved
And then in the of all this
They us money not to teach our children Irish
And so we lost our
And is what I think is still hurting me

You see we're like a child that's battered
Has to drive itself out of it's head because frightened
feels all the painful feelings
But they lose contact with the
And this leads to self-destruction
Alcoholism, drug
All desperate at running
And in it's worst
Becomes actual
And if there ever is gonna be
has to be remembering
And grieving
So that there can be forgiving
has to be knowledge and understanding

All the lonely
do they all come from
All the lonely
do they all belong

An army regulation
Says you mustn't kill more ten percent of a nation
'Cos to do so causes "psychological damage"
not permanent but they didn't know that
Anyway during the "famine"
We lost a lot more 10% of our nation
Through deaths on or on ships of emigration
But what finally us is not starvation
No it's use in the of our education
School go on "Black 47"
On and on about "The famine"
But what they don't say is in
There never was one

All the lonely
Where do they all come
All the lonely
do they all belong

So let's take a can we
The highest of child abuse in the EEC
And we say we're a country
But we've lost contact our history
See we used to God as a mother
suffering from post traumatic stress disorder
Look at all our old men in the
Look at all our people on drugs
We used to God as a mother
Now look at what we're doing to other
We've even made of ourselves
The most trusting people in the Universe
And this is wrong with us
Our history books the figures lied to us
I see the
As a race like a
That got itself in the face
And if there is gonna be healing
has to be remembering
And grieving
So that then can be forgiving
There has to be and understanding

All the people
Where do they all come
All the people
Where do all belong
All the people
do they all come from
(That I can you in one word)
All the people
do they all belong

And if there ever is gonna be
has to be remembering
And grieving
So that there then can be
There has to be knowledge and

And if there ever is be healing
has to be remembering
And then
So that there then can be
There has to be knowledge and

We stand on the brink of a achievement
In this Ireland there is no
To be found to our
By shooting each

Because of our tradition here knows who he is
and what God him to do

Forgiveness,

Yes
And

Equate, be


Yes
And

(repeat the several times)
