Blues Traveler ~ Sweet Pain


Music & lyrics: john popper If cyrano de bergerac Fell prey to the blades of fifty men With a heart and a sword he'd drive them back Perchance to see roxanne's eyes light up the sky again And when beauty kind and full of grace Again denied the beast her hand The beast he turned and hid his face And tried with all his might and magic to understand And once upon a time You know i used to wondery why You know no one should need to cry In pain of a heart forbade to fly But you learn to say goodbye As you whisper beneath a sigh Sweet pain Can't you plainly see? Sweet pain You know it matters to me Sweet pain Won't you make me feel at home? Sweet pain Don't you dare leave me alone Sometimes a life that seems hard to take Is soothed for a while by an old friend Leaving a bad need in its wake Sad how, some friendships never ever seem to end Well all of my heroes up and died Songs and a dream are left for me What did them in, not suicide Just a lengthy friendship and a dream of (how) it could be And isn't it a crime? Was it more than they could bear? You know they did not even care At all and they might have something there But i'm here and i don't see where All i hear is their silent prayer Sweet pain Is it so terribly wrong? Sweet pain To want to come along Sweet pain Won't you make me smile? Sweet pain If only for a while Can you feel what i feel? So we can establish that the pain is real Don't be afraid and i'll do the same for you And we'll just hang on and we'll make it, make it through There's got to be a reason it works out this way And there's something deep inside me That makes me have to play For you For you In no position to give advice My heart it spoke and i wrote it down And you know every wisdom has its price My head up in the stars And my feet planted firmly on the ground When will i embrace this life i see? I've been wondering for so long Thinking back, the truth may be I've been unaware but i've been living it all along And it didn't cost a dime And it did not come for free It just would not let me be But it never conquered me Just a doorway and a key And i think that we both agree Sweet pain Is sometimes what you need Sweet pain It allows the blood to bleed Sweet pain From the moment of your birth Sweet pain You know it keeps you here on earth more free lyrics

Music & lyrics: john popper

If cyrano de bergerac
Fell prey to the blades of fifty men
With a heart and a sword he'd drive them back
Perchance to see roxanne's eyes light up the sky again
And when beauty kind and full of grace
Again denied the beast her hand
The beast he turned and hid his face
And tried with all his might and magic to understand

And once upon a time
You know i used to wondery why
You know no one should need to cry
In pain of a heart forbade to fly
But you learn to say goodbye
As you whisper beneath a sigh

Sweet pain
Can't you plainly see?
Sweet pain
You know it matters to me
Sweet pain
Won't you make me feel at home?
Sweet pain
Don't you dare leave me alone

Sometimes a life that seems hard to take
Is soothed for a while by an old friend
Leaving a bad need in its wake
Sad how, some friendships never ever seem to end
Well all of my heroes up and died
Songs and a dream are left for me
What did them in, not suicide
Just a lengthy friendship and a dream of (how) it could be

And isn't it a crime?
Was it more than they could bear?
You know they did not even care
At all and they might have something there
But i'm here and i don't see where
All i hear is their silent prayer

Sweet pain
Is it so terribly wrong?
Sweet pain
To want to come along
Sweet pain
Won't you make me smile?
Sweet pain
If only for a while

Can you feel what i feel?
So we can establish that the pain is real
Don't be afraid and i'll do the same for you
And we'll just hang on and we'll make it, make it through
There's got to be a reason it works out this way
And there's something deep inside me
That makes me have to play
For you
For you

In no position to give advice
My heart it spoke and i wrote it down
And you know every wisdom has its price
My head up in the stars
And my feet planted firmly on the ground
When will i embrace this life i see?
I've been wondering for so long
Thinking back, the truth may be
I've been unaware but i've been living it all along

And it didn't cost a dime
And it did not come for free
It just would not let me be
But it never conquered me
Just a doorway and a key
And i think that we both agree

Sweet pain
Is sometimes what you need
Sweet pain
It allows the blood to bleed
Sweet pain
From the moment of your birth
Sweet pain
You know it keeps you here on earth

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
