Luyện nghe bài hát Famine Reynolds Extended Mix

(O'Connor, Clayton, Simenon, Reynolds)

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

There is more in us than we know about. The famine, happened 150 years ago.
It three lifetimes at most. Things happen than were handed on from father
to son, from mother to daughter, down to this day. They are 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, intellectually we deny it. Our ....... doesn deal with this,
our sentiment doesn deal this. But music, it in the music, it seems to me.
The culture can actually carry those things in al kinds of ways, in gesture,
in movement, in language, in and in music.

Okay, I want to talk about
Specifically I want to about the "famine"
About the fact that there never was one
was no "famine"
See Irish people were only allowed to eat
All of the food, meat, fish, vegetables,
shipped out of the country under armed guard
To England the Irish people starved
And in the middle of all this
They gave us 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 been
Has to itself out of it's head because it's frightened
Still all the painful feelings
But they contact with the memory
And this to massive self-destruction
Alcoholism, drug
All attempts at running
And in it's form
actual killing
And if there ever is be healing
There has to be
And then
So that there can be forgiving
has to be knowledge and understanding

All the people
Where do all come from
All the people
Where do they all

An American army
Says you mustn't more than ten percent of a nation
'Cos to do so causes "psychological damage"
It's not permanent but didn't know that
Anyway the supposed "famine"
We a lot more than 10% of our nation
Through on land or on ships of emigration
But finally broke us is not starvation
No it's use in the controlling of our
School go on "Black 47"
On and on about "The famine"
But what don't say is in truth
really never was one

All the lonely
Where do they all from
All the people
where do all belong

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

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

And if there ever is gonna be
has to be remembering
And then
So there then can be forgiving
There has to be and understanding

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

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

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

Forgiveness,

Yes
And

Equate, be


Yes
And

(repeat the several times)
