her mothership has a new cd!

years and years she's silent. than she opens her mouth again and you drop dead! like now. but there are uglier ways to die than be sung into the ragnarök by the best ever heard performance of somewhere over the rainbow. who is able to deny this woman the forgiveness of her venial sin of talking about ufos? if she wants to believe she will be picked up one day by a starship, fine, as long as she sings for me like this. yes, i am selfish. did i forget to mention that on the ministresses alphabet? hmmmm... who cares? me not as far as i can listen to this exceptionally gifted, beautiful and insane lady and her big band.

artist: nina hagen
song: happiness
album: irgendwo auf der welt


i have such longing, but i feel sure
i wasn’t made for sorrow
my time is coming, for happiness
if not today, tomorrow
waiting so long, learned how to cope
learned i must never give up hope

happiness, waits for me, somewhere out there in the world
and i dream of it with evry breath i take

there’s a yes meant for me, and i know someday we’ll meat
one appointement that’s impossible to break

when and where, i’m not sure, but my heart will get me there
so much joy to be had, and it’s time i got my share

happiness could arrive almost any second now
who knows when? who knows where? who knows how?

(juuuuuh)
