Le morceau "The Saints are coming" des Skids de Richard Jobson repris par Green Day et U2...
"The saints are coming", titre phare des Écossais de The Skids sorti en 1978, est remis au goût du jour avec les Californiens
de Green Day et le quatuor Irlandais de U2.
Une reprise enregistrée dans les studios d'Abbey Road à Londres et sorti en octobre 2006
à des fins caritatives suite à l'ouragan Katrina qui s'est abattu sur la Nouvelle-Orléans en 2005.
Un des ouragans les plus meurtriers - avec plus de 1 800 morts -
qu'a connu les Etats-Unis.
"The Saints are coming"
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the risin' sun
It's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And, God, I know I'm one
I cried to my daddy on the telephone
How long now?
Until the clouds unroll and you come down
The line went
But the shadows still remain since your descent, your descent
I cried to my daddy on the telephone
How long now?
Until the clouds unroll and you come home
The line went
But the shadows still remain since your descent, your descent
Lo-cha-hey!
The saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say no matter how I try
I realize there's no reply
The saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say no matter how I try
I realize there's no reply
A drowning sorrow floods the deepest grief
How long now?
Until the weather change condemns belief
How long now?
When the night watchman lets in the thief
What's wrong now?
Boom! Cha! Hey!
The saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say no matter how I try
I realize there's no reply
The saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say no matter how I try
I realize there's no reply
I say no matter how I try
I realize there's no reply
I say no matter how I try
I realize there's no reply
Johnny you're me
Yeah, you're memory
I want to put my arms around your memory
I can't try, I can't try...don't try
