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

Okay, I want to talk Ireland
Specifically I want to talk the "famine"
About the fact that there really was one
was no "famine"
See Irish people only allowed to eat potatoes
All of the food, meat, fish, vegetables,
were shipped out of the country under armed
To England while the Irish people
And in the middle of all this
They gave us not to teach our children Irish
And so we our history
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 contact with the memory
And this leads to self-destruction
Alcoholism, drug
All desperate attempts at
And in it's form
actual killing
And if ever is gonna be healing
There has to be
And grieving
So that there then can be
There has to be and understanding

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

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

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

So let's a look can we
The highest statistics of child 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 young on drugs
We used to worship God as a
Now look at what doing to each other
even made killers of ourselves
The child-like trusting people in the Universe
And this is what's wrong us
Our books the parent figures lied to us
I see the
As a race a child
That got smashed in the face
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

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

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

And if there is gonna be healing
There has to be
And grieving
So there then can be forgiving
has to be knowledge and understanding

We on the brink of a great achievement
In Ireland there is no solution
To be to our disagreements
By each other

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

Forgiveness,

Yes
And

Equate, be


Yes
And

(repeat the above times)
