Gone Wind
May 31, 2007 by admin · Leave a Comment

The wind blows hot with sweet flowers
The stench of death, broken needles,
When the light of the rising sun is also revealing
Power poppies in their ranks and corpses on the wire.
Bird Song hums artillery asked yesterday evening
When he broke the country is still developing, the resistant germ of life;
For Rising Sun "and make our world, or even ignored,
The gods are too busy with their own worries.
Lightweight Shell City, now shadows surprised dissolved
Mimic and reflect life in the eyes of the blind
In the silence seems that paid for a second death
However, no significant bathing in the sun forever, no.
Neighbors Friends and children are still lying in the street
In some derision eternal peace forever
Who in their Passage through the final cooling of the morning without sleep
His purpose by the broken branches and artificial burning flesh.
For them, pain is also the meat is no longer hurts
But for us the bloody survivors, life goes on,
A living hell, and Shell, and worse
Want to know who will be gone the next night.
But now we see the dawn with stunned surprise
For it seemed that was the end of the day late
And all shocked and closed his eyes,
This city was a cemetery, a grave is closed.
Gold Nature does not lose the rhythm, and was awarded a second glance;
The day is hell bent improper signal laugh
Hope lost a lump sum of our roots with dance,
With banners bright with joy, never fails.
Therefore, we must show the pain, hunger and fear
Because life goes on, no regrets, even now,
Forced to see day if none of this despair,
Instead of sharpening his smile, our pain.
Repentance for what you seem to be
Nestled in the form of the human form:
A group of us, whether by time spent in retirement
A primary fear, filth and rags used thin.
Gathered in a basement covered with a pile of rocks under
A house collapsed inside as well as heart failure,
Our group regrets that assembled if ordered penance
For our sins, not by the gods, their altars fell into obscurity.
Christians, Muslims, non-believers of all midi
Proceedings of a brotherhood founded by joint pain
They gave reasons unrecalled whose hatred melted
In the new resolution that took the man and never leave.
At the end they are all men of truth is defined
For contracts, in fact, they will agree with her;
And if the man was his misfortune reappear more fine
Then she is smarter and more new jobs to be released.
Need to develop because of the war on people of good to see my --
Each of the other great people as their enemy
And a mistake to believe that the evil of Cunning and deception;
These seeds take root, planted by agents of Satan.
Well then good goal wrongly seduced
And it reads very well, while Satan always so funny
Enjoy the sight of blood, so ably produced
When avoided the collapse of the dart legitimate and timely.
But in the end none of us could remember how they got there,
No longer the name of our hatred of evil won another man.
If the bomb explodes, the reasons for his flight with the naked
Reveal their inherent too late
To revoke or to regret our folly or
But to use a tooth from its inability to
Or, conversely, that the tanks crushed under the title
Unground now expect that they can reach new
The shrunken seeds Broken Heart
With the breath of life that bring back the dead.
Same when the world began to end in a new world
It defies the logic of our love and hatred rather than embrace.
We have sworn an oath, that twelve years and promises
For he and the nation, this country that we call Earth
This is what everyone will be destroyed again and again
And the death of yesterday is the birth of tomorrow.
The nation in time Sarajevo was in ruins' s Born
We flex twelve knights of the will flame of a new trigger:
One World nation, a race to the jury
In men, the fire out, the enemies of man, darkness.

Gone with the Wind [VHS] $2.34 David O. Selznick wanted Gone with the Wind to be somehow more than a movie, a film that would broaden the very idea of what a film could be and do and look like. In many respects he got what he worked so hard to achieve in this 1939 epic (and all-time box-office champ in terms of tickets sold), and in some respects he fell far short of the goal.

Gone with the Wind $9.48 Margaret Mitchell's epic novel of love and war won the Pulitzer Prize and went on to give rise to two authorized sequels and one of the most popular and celebrated movies of all time. Many novels have been written about the Civil War and its aftermath. None take us into the burning fields and cities of the American South as Gone With the Wind does, creating haunting scenes and thrilling portraits of characters so vivid that we remember their words and feel their fear and hunger for the rest of our lives. In the two main characters, the white-shouldered, irresistible Scarlett and the flashy, contemptuous Rhett, Margaret Mitchell not only conveyed a timeless story of survival under the harshest of circumstances, she also created two of the most famous lovers in the English-speaking world since Romeo and Juliet. |

Wind-Gone-Mad $6.6 In a tale played out during the last days of pre-World War II China and the rise of Communism, Jim Dahlgren, representative of the Amalgamated Aeronautical Company, has had enough of the fatalistic brand of diplomacy from other nations that claim to want a united China, one that can resist invasion from without and treason within-- but which refuses to intervene and prevent it''s demise.. And the damage is just too costly when lives are at stake, especially when a villain known as The Butcher is allowed to rise up with fire and sword carving the way on his warpath for complete control of the nation. When Dahlgren disappears-- purportedly to find a mysterious aviator, the man called Wind-Gone-Mad who has always fought against the province warlords-- he ignites a series of actions which just may spell disaster. |

Gone with the Wind [Rhino Single Disc] $11.98 The soundtrack to Gone with the Wind has appeared in numerous forms since its first release on LP in the 1950s. The 1990 CBS/Sony reissue was the second attempt to expand its content significantly, adding some incidental music and refining the sound that appeared on the previous MGM and Polydor versions. Most of it works if one allows for the sheer age of the materials involved -- Gone with the Wind is just about the oldest original soundtrack material that has any significant commercial appeal beyond a cult audience and, having been recorded in 1939, it has never fit entirely well into the modern marketplace. The producers here have tried to clean it up with various filters and other sound processing, which generally makes it easier on the ear. No re-recording of "Tara's Theme" or other memorable elements of the score were ever as well conducted as the original (even when composer Max Steiner himself attempted it in the '50s), and the sound is less ragged here than on earlier versions. The Rhino reissue from 1996 improves it yet further, though there will always be something lacking in some of the source material, in terms of modern fidelity and what contemporary listeners expect. [Rhino/WEA issued a 22-track, single-disc edition in 1997.] ~ Bruce Eder, All Music Guide |

The Wind $13.79 In late August of 2002, Warren Zevon was diagnosed with mesothelioma, a virulent and inoperable form of lung cancer; with his life expectancy expected to be no more than a few months, Zevon focused his dwindling energies on completing a final album, and The Wind, released a year after Zevon learned of his condition, was the result. With a back story like that, it's all but impossible to ignore the subtext of Zevon's mortality while listening to The Wind, though, thankfully, he's opted not to make an album about illness or death (ironically, he already did that with 2000's Life'll Kill Ya) or create a musical last will and testament. While The Wind occasionally and obliquely touches on Zevon's illness -- most notably the mournful "Keep Me in Your Heart" and the dirty blues raunch of "Rub Me Raw" -- in many ways it sounds like a fairly typical Warren Zevon album, though of course this time out the caustic wit cuts a bit deeper, the screeds against a world gone mad sound more woeful, and the love songs suggest higher emotional stakes than before. The Wind also lays in a higher compliment of celebrity guest stars than usual, and while obviously a lot of these folks are old friends wanting to help a pal in need, in some cases the ringers help to carry the weight for Zevon, who, while in good voice, can't summon up the power he did in his salad days. And remarkably, the trick works on several cuts; Bruce Springsteen's rollicking guest vocal on "Disorder in the House" offers just the kick the tune needed, Tom Petty's laid-back smirk brings a sleazy undertow to "The Rest of the Night," and Dwight Yoakam's harmonies on "Dirty Life and Times" are the perfect touch for the tune. In terms of material, The Wind isn't a great Zevon album, but it's a pretty good one; "El Amour de Mi Vida" is a simple but affecting look at lost love, "Prison Grove" is a superior character piece about life behind bars, and "Numb as a Statue," "Disorder in the House," and "Dirty Life and Times" prove the prospect of imminent death hasn't alleviated Zevon's cynicism in the least. (It's hard to say if he's being sincere or darkly witty with his cover of "Knockin' on Heaven's Door," though he manages to make it work both ways.) And the assembled musicians -- among them Ry Cooder, David Lindley, Joe Walsh, Don Henley, and Jim Keltner -- serve up their best licks without taking the show away from Zevon, who, despite his obvious weakness, firmly commands the spotlight. The Wind feels less like a grand final statement of Warren Zevon's career than one last walk around the field, with the star nodding to his pals, offering a last look at what he does best, and quietly but firmly leaving listeners convinced that he exits the game with no shame and no regrets. Which, all in all, is a pretty good way to remember the guy. ~ Mark Deming, All Music GuidePerformers: David Lindley - |
