Turkish Rock musician Baris Manco and his group "Kurtalan Express" perform "Nick The Chopper". Turkish Lyrics of The Song: NICK THE CHOPPER: Ormanın aşağısında,bir köyün yakınlarında "Nick The Chopper" adında bir adam yaşardı. Ağaçları kesmek onun oyunuydu, Ve bundan para kazanmak da... Ağaçları hiç umursamadan, O, körü körüne balta sallıyordu... O hiç evlenmedi, O asla yıkanmaz, O hiç okula gitmedi,"Nick The Chopper". Ağaçları kesmek onun oyunuydu, Ve bundan para kazanmak da... Şimdi yaşamı ya da bir arkadaşını bile umursamıyor. O kirli ve yaşlı bir adamdır,"Nick The Chopper". Bu çok yaşlı adam,artık karar vermişti... Çok zengin olmaya,"Nick The Chopper". Ağaçları(koruyu) kesmek onun oyunuydu... Ve o,bu oyunu oynamaktan vazgeçemedi. O,bütün ormanı kesip yerle bir etmek istiyor... Ağaçlar ondan nefret ettiler, Ve onlar söz verdiler, Ona bir ders vermeye..."Nick The Chopper"... Ağaçları(koruyu) kesmek onun oyunuydu, Ve o,bu oyunu oynamaktan vazgeçemedi. Fakat hikaye devam ederken, O kendi oyununda yenilir. O kirli ve yaşlı bir adamdır,"Nick The Chopper". "Seni öldüreceğiz,Nick The Chopper!",,, "Seni dallarla boğarak,Nick The Chopper!" Written and composed by Baris Manco in the year,1975 English Lyrics of "Nick The Chopper": Down in the forest near a village Lived the man called Nick The Chopper Chopping woods his game And making money Caring no for trees He blindly chops on Never took married He never washes He never went to school, Nick The Chopper Chopping woods his game <b>...</b>

www.thecryptsessions.com This weeks Crypt Session comes from Sparrow And The Workshop. Imagine kidnapping Blanche DuBois and Stanley Kowalski from Streetcar Named Desire, dumping them in the Yuma desert and then asking Sergio Leone to film the fallout. The resulting movies soundtrack could only be by Sparrow And The Workshop. The Glasgow-based trio mix galloping surf rhythms with haunting melodies and a love of dark Southern Gothic tales to construct some of the finest contemporary folk youre likely to hear outside the Fleet Foxes den. Chicagoan Jill OSullivan (vocals, violin), Welshman Nick Packer (bass, guitar) and Scot Gregor Donaldson (drums, vocals) only joined forces in 2008 but already Sparrow And The Workshop have toured with British Sea Power and Idlewild and built an ecstatic following amongst the critical elite. The Guardian described their sound as captivating.ethereal and electric. The List said they were, downright brilliant, with songs about the devil, broken homes, foes, jealousy, crimes of love and gun-packin delivered profoundly by a trio of old souls. Drowned In Sound even went so far as to suggest that the band might do for folk what The Strokes did for rock n roll and gave their ep, Into The Wild, 9/10. Have a butchers at the bands brilliant Crypt Session and youll quickly understand why all that praise is fully justified. The trio are going back on the road with British Sea Power and Idlewild in February and we strongly suggest that you book a ticket <b>...</b>
