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

Okay, I want to talk about
Specifically I want to talk the "famine"
About the fact 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 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 lost our
And this is what I think is hurting me

You see we're like a child that's been
Has to drive itself out of it's head because it's
feels all the painful feelings
But they lose with the memory
And this leads to massive
Alcoholism, addiction
All attempts at running
And in worst form
Becomes actual
And if there is gonna be healing
has to be remembering
And grieving
So that there can be forgiving
There has to be knowledge and

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

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

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

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 with our
See we used to worship God as a
We're suffering from traumatic stress disorder
Look at all our old men in the
at all our young people on drugs
We used to worship God as a
Now look at we're doing to each other
We've even made killers of
The child-like trusting people in the Universe
And this is wrong with us
Our history books the parent lied to us
I see the
As a race a child
That got itself in the face
And if there ever is gonna be
There has to be
And then
So that there can be forgiving
There has to be knowledge and

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

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

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

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

Because of our everyone here knows who he is
and God expects him to do

Forgiveness,

Yes
And

Equate, be


Yes
And

(repeat the above times)
