Marianne is a national emblem of France and an allegory of Liberty and Reason. She represents the state and values of France, differently from another French cultural symbol, the "Coq Gaulois" ("Gallic rooster") which represents France as a nation and its history, land, culture, and variety of sport disciplines in their combative forms. Marianne is displayed in many places in France and holds a place of honour in town halls and law courts. She symbolises the "Triumph of the Republic", a bronze sculpture overlooking the Place de la Nation in Paris. Her profile stands out on the official seal of the country, is engraved on French euro coins and appears on French postage stamps; it also was featured on the former franc currency. Marianne is one of the most prominent symbols of the French Republic. The origins of Marianne, depicted by artist Honoré Daumier, in 1848, as a mother nursing two children, Romulus and Remus, or by sculptor François Rude, during the July Monarchy, as an angry warrior voicing the Marseillaise on the Arc de Triomphe, are uncertain. In any case, she has become a symbol in France: considered as a personification of the Republic, she was often used on republican iconography — and heavily caricatured and reviled by those against the republic. Although both are common emblems of France, neither Marianne nor the rooster enjoys official status: the flag of France, as named and described in Article 2 of the French constitution, is the only official emblem.
Leonard Norman Cohen, CC GOQ (born 21 September 1934) is a Canadian singer-songwriter, musician, poet, and novelist. His work often explores religion, isolation, sexuality, and interpersonal relationships. Cohen has been inducted into the American Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and both the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame. He is also a Companion of the Order of Canada, the nation's highest civilian honour.
While giving the speech at Cohen's induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on 10 March 2008, Lou Reed described Cohen as belonging to the "highest and most influential echelon of songwriters."
Cohen was born on 21 September 1934 in Westmount, Montreal, Quebec, into a middle-class Jewish family. He attended Roslyn Elementary School. His mother, Marsha Klinitsky, of Lithuanian Jewish ancestry, emigrated from Lithuania while his great-grandfather emigrated from Poland. He grew up in Westmount on the Island of Montreal. His grandfather was Lyon Cohen, founding president of the Canadian Jewish Congress. His father, Nathan Cohen, who owned a substantial Montreal clothing store, died when Cohen was nine years old. On the topic of being a Kohen, Cohen has said that, "I had a very Messianic childhood." He told Richard Goldstein in 1967. "I was told I was a descendant of Aaron, the high priest." Cohen attended Westmount High School, beginning in 1948 where he was involved with the Student Council and studied music and poetry. He became especially interested in the poetry of Federico Garcia Lorca. As a teenager, he learned to play the guitar, and formed a country-folk group called the Buckskin Boys. Although he initially played a regular acoustic guitar as a teenager, he soon switched to playing a classical guitar after meeting a young Spanish flamenco guitar player who taught him "a few chords and some flamenco."
The Brothers Four are an American folk singing group, founded in 1957 in Seattle, Washington, known for their 1960 hit song "Greenfields".
Bob Flick, John Paine, Mike Kirkland, and Dick Foley met at the University of Washington, where they were members of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity in 1956 (hence the "Brothers" appellation). Their first professional performances were the result of a prank played on them in 1958 by a rival fraternity, who had arranged for someone to call them, pretend to be from Seattle's Colony Club, and invite them to come down to audition for a gig. Even though they were not expected at the club, they were allowed to sing a few songs anyway, and were subsequently hired. Flick recalls them being paid "mostly in beer."
They left for San Francisco in 1959, where they met Mort Lewis, Dave Brubeck's manager. Lewis became their manager and later that year secured them a contract with Columbia Records. Their second single, "Greenfields," released in January 1960, hit #2 on the pop charts, and their first album, Brothers Four, released toward the end of the year, made the top 20. Other highlights of their early career included singing their fourth single, "The Green Leaves of Summer," from the John Wayne movie The Alamo, at the 1961 Academy Awards, and having their second album, BMOC/Best Music On/Off Campus, go top 10. They also recorded the theme song for the ABC television series Hootenanny, "Hootenanny Saturday Night," in 1963. They also gave a try at "Sloop John B", released as "The John B Sails".
Hamilton H. Gilkyson III (June 17, 1916–October 15, 1999), better known as Terry Gilkyson, was an American folk singer, composer, and lyricist.
Gilkyson was born in Phoenixville, Pennsylvania and graduated from St George's high school in 1935. By his early twenties, he had become a worker on a ranch in Tucson, Arizona, then joined the military during World War II. In 1947, he married Jane Gilkyson and moved to California to pursue a career as a folk singer.
He wrote and recorded "The Cry Of the Wild Goose", which became a hit song for Frankie Laine in 1950, as well as the 1953 hit song "Tell Me a Story" recorded by Jimmy Boyd and Laine. In 1951 Gilkyson appeared in, as well as wrote continuing songs for, the Cinecolor Western film Slaughter Trail that, in the manner of High Noon, had ballads throughout the film relating to the plot. He was also featured vocalist on The Weavers No. 1 hit recording of "On Top Of Old Smokey", as well as their recording of "Across The Wide Missouri". He appeared and sang in the 1956 Western "Star in the Dust" with John Agar, Mamie Van Doren, and Richard Boone.
Marianne Evelyn Faithfull (born 29 December 1946) is an English singer, songwriter and actress whose career has spanned five decades.
Her early work in pop and rock music in the 1960s was overshadowed by her struggle with drug abuse in the 1970s. During the first two-thirds of that decade, she produced only two little-noticed studio albums. After a long commercial absence, she returned late in 1979 with the highly acclaimed album, Broken English. Faithfull's subsequent solo work, often critically acclaimed, has at times been overshadowed by her personal history.
From 1966 to 1970, she had a highly publicised romantic relationship with Rolling Stones' lead singer, Mick Jagger. She co-wrote "Sister Morphine", which is featured on the Stones' Sticky Fingers album.
Faithfull was born in Hampstead, London. Her father, Major Robert Glynn Faithfull, was a British military officer and professor of psychology. Her mother, Eva von Sacher-Masoch, Baroness Erisso, was originally from Vienna, with aristocratic roots in the Habsburg Dynasty and Jewish ancestry on her maternal side. Erisso was a ballerina for the Max Reinhardt Company during her early years, and danced in productions of works by the German theatrical duo Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill. Faithfull's maternal great great uncle was Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, the nineteenth-century Austrian nobleman whose erotic novel, Venus in Furs, spawned the word "masochism". In regard to her roots in nobility, Faithfull commented in March 2007 prior to beginning the European leg of her tour, "I'm even going to Budapest, which is nice because I'm half English and half Austro Hungarian. I've inherited the title Baroness Sacher-Masoch—it comes from one of my great uncles who gave his name to masochism."
Tuna
Rubber
A little blubber in my igloo
And I knew you pigtails and all
Grils when they fall
And they said Marianne killed herself
And I said not a chance
Don't you love the girls ladies babes
Old bags who say she was so pretty why
Why why why did she crawl down in the old
Deep ravine
C'mon pigtails girls and all those sailors
Get your bags and hold down won't you just
Hold down cause Ed is watching my every sound
I said
They're watching my every sound
The weasel squeaks faster than a seven day week
I said Timmy and that purple Monkey
Are all down
At Bobby's house
Making themselves pesters and lesters and jesters an dmy
Traitors of kind
And I'm just having thoughts of Marianne
She could outrun the fastest slug
She could
Marianne
All night all day Marianne
Down by the seaside sifting sand
Even little children love Marianne
Down by the seaside sifting sand
Marianne Oh Marianne
Oh won't you marry me?
We can have a bamboo hut
and brandy in the tea
Leave your fat old Nanna home
She never will say yes
If mamma don't know now
She can guess my my yes
All night all day Marianne
Down by the seaside sifting sand
Even little children love Marianne
Down by the seaside sifting sand
When she walks along the shore
People pause to greet
While birds fly around her
Little fish come to her feet
In her heart is love
but I'm the only mortal man
Who's allowed to kiss my Marianne
Don't rush me
All night all day Marianne
Down by the seaside sifting sand
Even little children love Marianne
Down by the seaside sifting sand
When we marry we will have
A time you never saw
I will be so happy
I will kiss my motherinlaw
Children by the dozen

One for every palm tree
and cokynut Hurry up now
All night all day Marianne
Down by the seaside sifting sand
Even little children love Marianne
Oh, Marianne
Please don't marry that insurance man
I just saw your picture in the paper
Surrounded by extensive wedding plans
Tell me this is just one of your capers
Say you haven't met with their demands
CHORUS:
Oh, Marianne
Love talks cheap and faster than I can
Oh, Marianne
Please don't marry that insurance man
I can't see you packing up his lunches
I can't see you diapering his son
You're the girl who always played her hunches
So how'd you figure out that this was one
CHORUS
I'm not saying I grew up in love with you
I'm sayin', ";Why grow up at all?";
So tell that Hoosier boy to put on clean socks
And the finest double-knits that he can wear
'Cause when that invitation hits my mailbox
I'll see you at his funeral, my dear
CHORUS
All day

Marianne
down by the seaside siftin' sand.
Even little children love Marianne

Marianne, Marianne
With your voice like silver strings ringing
And sounds of laughter and singing
Keep repeating, Marianne, Marianne
Marianne, Marianne
Oh I can tell better than anyone else could
That there's more to you than just bad or good
There's a teardrop or a shaft of light for your heart
Marianne, oh, Marianne
The dawn will be breaking soon
And my voice will fade with the moon
And the sunlight will remind me of you
I'm feeling forlorn
And I'm feeling abused.
My soul is badly torn
My mind is confused.
I've been a long way
I've had the sun to guide me.
It's been a long day
I need you here beside me.
Marianne
I'm feeling empty and alone.
Marianne
I'm such a long way from home.
Far too many miles
No place to go.
Way too many smiles
From people I don't know.
Can't make up my mind
On what I'm gonna do.
Left you far behind
I wish I was with you.
Marianne
I'm feeling empty and alone.
Marianne
Come on Marianne
The sun sets in your eyes
I'm in love again
Come on once or twice
Wanna be your air?
Come on now, all I see
Wanna ride along
Follow all our dreams
Kaleidoscopes that fall into the sun
Gonna lay the blame on me, not anyone
Gonna write a song
Sing it to the sun
Don't tell anyone
Don't tell anyone
Oh, sweet Marianne
You're the only one I've ever loved
And I swear it on
Swear it on the moon and stars above
I wanna understand
And, I wanna be your man
I wanna be your man
Swear it on the moon and stars
I will full moon
Just a part of me
Gonna write a song and see how a woman feel
Come on get it on right into the sun
Gonna ride along and fly, gonna let it on
Oh, sweet Marianne
You're the only one I've ever loved
And I swear it on
Swear it on the moon and stars above
In my head you're the only one I've ever loved
I wanna be your man
You're the only one I've ever loved
Oh, don't you love me
Oh, don't you love me
Don't you love me

------------
Can I get through to you now
Can I Marianne
What are you trying to do now
Come on Marianne
Ain't no use in conversation
Poor little girl you're outta this world Marianne
Everyone seems to think you're too much Marianne
Everyone seems to think they know you Marianne
Why you don't even know yourself
Poor little girl you're out of this world Marianne
Wake up Marianne
Ooo I can tell
You're a sweet little heart breaker Marianne
Don't mind me,
But I think I'll see you later Marianne
Don't you go flip out, trip out, skip out
Poor little girl you're outta this world Marianne
Wake up, Wake up, Wake up
Or are you afraid of the shakeup
There's a better thing you can take up,
Do you remember Marianne and Mick
A thousand flights they had together
Everything was different then
And nothing lasts forever
Sixty six to sixty nine
It ends in tears as years go by
All of our love to you my dear
Marianne
Marianne you're somewhere out there
West of Dublin in a cottage of shells
Wrote a book, still making records
How it is and was is what you tell
You have been through the mill
But you're still beautiful
All of our love to you my dear
Marianne
Marianne on the wall on the losing end
Tell them all you've gone away
Still through it all you came back again
Back again Marianne
You have been through the mill
But you're still beautiful
All of our love to you my dear
Marianne
All of my love to you my dear
I take one look at you
It leaves me breathless
I see your dreams come true
You're not so restless
Or light, or bright
Marianne
One day I might not care
What happened to me
Your lack of sympathy fails to disturb me
I've got a life of my own
I remember the day I thought we couldn't lose
Running round the garden in your mother's shoes
Playing with your sisters
I didn't see you were a grown up girl
And bringing me tea
But is it life in a grown up world
On a cold autumn day
Is it life, someone's wife
When the car had broken down
The best of my girls
I didn't see you were a grown up girl
Oh how I hate the celebration
But you give it all away leaving me on my own
But is it life in a grown up world
I can't wait for the end of the celebration
Is it life, someone's wife
Add it up, all that's left is a space in a life
That goes on as before
One day I might not care
What happens to me
Your lack of sympathy fails to disturb me
I've got a life of my own
Add it up, all that's left is a space in a life
That goes on as before
Marianne
Add it up, all that's left is a space in a life
That goes on as before
Marianne
Add it up, All that's left is a space in a life
That goes on as before
Marianne
Add it up, all that's left is a space in a life
At the end of the world
Marianne, must I live for only yesterday?
Now you've gone away, Marianne
Marianne, all I have is just a memory
Of what you mean to me, Marianne
Here am I without a love to my name
I shall be just following my lonely heart
Endlessly must I be calling your name
Telling you I am waiting
Won't you please come back again?
Marianne, must I wait until eternity?
Please come back to me, Marianne
Here am I without a love to my name
I shall be just following my lonely heart
Endlessly must I be calling your name
Telling you I am waiting
Won't you please come back again?
Marianne, must I wait until eternity?
Please come back to me, Marianne
All day, all night, Marianne

She can guess (it's in the mail now!)

California's come and gone
Now I got my mind back on
The open air and you on highway one
Baby ever since that day
Been tryin to get back to that place
Everything's was right under sun
Oh, Marianne, Marianne
I said Marianne, I'm waiting
Saturday took you away
Sunday mornin' brought the rain
The cloudy skies are coverin' the blue
Why'd you have to disappear
It's not the same without you here
Everything's remindin' me of you
Marianne, Marianne
Marianne, I'm waiting to see you again
Marianne, Marianne
Marianne, I'm waiting to see you again
Could you come back
Won't you come back
Cause I'm waiting

Would you come back
Won't you come back

Gestern fragt mich ein Tourist
ob das Jodeln schwierig ist -
er tät es ja so gern probier'n,
doch hat er Angst, sich zu blamier'n.
Er:
Hab ich g'sagt: Mein lieber Mann,
ich weiß, wie man es lernen kann:
Für ein kühles, blondes Bier,
da verrat ich's dir!
Hoite hol i olle o,
so heisst das Zauberwort.
Hoite hol i olle o,
da jodelst du sofort!
Hoite hol i olle o,
wirst seh'n, mehr brauchst du net.
Hoite hol i olle o,
weil's wie von selber geht!
Sie:
Dass man das auch nicht vergißt
gibts dazu a kloane Gschicht:
Mutti sagt: "Du, Vatilein,
wer bringt heut die Kinder heim"?
Er:
Worauf Vati zu ihr sagt:
"Heute hol ich alle ab!"
Und is er a Bayer no
dann klingt des bei ehm so:
Hoite hol i olle o....
Beide:
Bei uns'rem Jodel-Seminar

Darum machts uns jetzt ka Schand und sing ma miteinand:
Hoite hol i olle o...
Wenn wir erklimmen, schwindelnde Höhen.
Steigen den Berggipfeln zu.
In unserm Herzen, brennt eine Sehnsucht,
Die lässt uns nimmermehr in Ruh'
Refrain:
Herrliche Berge, sonnige Höhen, Bergvagabunden sind wir, ja wir, Herrliche Berge,
sonnige Höhen, Bergvagabunden sind wir.
(Jodelstück)
Mit Seil und Hacken, alles zu wagen, hängen wir in steiler Wand.
Wolken sie ziehen, Edelweiss blühen, vorbei jetzt mit sicherer Hand.
Refrain:
Herrliche Berge....
(Jodelstück)
Beim Alpenglühen, heimwärts wir ziehen, Berge sie leuchten so rot.
Wir kommen wieder, denn wir sind Brüder, Brüder auf Leben und Tod.
Lebt wohl ihr Berge, sonnige Höhen, Bergkameraden sind treu, ja treu,
lebt wohl ihr Berge, sonnige Höhen, Bergkameraden sind treu.
(Jodelstück)
I hab' di' g'sehn und g'wusst
dass i di' gern ham muss

I wollt' viel mehr von dir.
Denn i hab's g'spürt in mir.
Wenn's einmal richtig losgeht hier

Wann fangt denn endlich d'Musi an

beim Tanzen Arm in Arm

Wann fangt denn endlich d'Musi an
damit i mit dir schmusen kann.
Des dauert viel zu lang.
Geh' Musikanten reißt's euch z'samm'.

Früh gefreit hat nie gereut.
Du weißt längst Bescheid.
Refrain:
Schon beim ersten Kuss

Schon beim ersten Kuß

I'll take my love at first sight
I don't need no promises tonight
It's just a song it's sung and it's gone
I don't get to play for very long
But you wait for me
Standing at the door
Sitting in my room
Sleeping on the floor
It's just a kiss and it don't last
The day is long but the night goes so fast
I put on my boots and I head for the door
I lose again but hey who's keeping score
If love is learning to say goodbye
I've spent all my life just learning to cry
But time will heal the bloodiest scar
You're heartbreak in teenage life
They wanna be like you, they wanna know how it's like
I'll find you out, you know I'd try
I'll find you out, you know I'd try
‘Cause Marianne, your girls are sleeping in
Marianne, your girls are sleeping in
Marianne, your girls are sleeping in
Marianne, your girls are sleeping in, they're sleeping in
You're a professional but where does it go?
You're singing Marianne when you were young but now you're old
They will find you out, even though you tried
They will find you out, even though you tried
‘Cause Marianne, your girls are sleeping in
Marianne, your girls are sleeping in
Marianne, your girls are sleeping in
Marianne, your girls are sleeping in, they're sleeping in
‘Cause Marianne, your girls are sleeping in
‘Cause Marianne, your girls are sleeping in, they're sleeping in
‘Cause Marianne, your girls are sleeping in
