John Anthony Frusciante i/fruːˈʃɑːnteɪ/; born March 5, 1970) is an American guitarist, singer, songwriter, record and film producer. He is best known as the former guitarist of the rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers, with whom he had been for a number of years and recorded five studio albums. Frusciante has an active solo career, having released ten albums under his own name, as well as two with Josh Klinghoffer and Joe Lally as Ataxia. His solo recordings include elements ranging from experimental rock and ambient music to New Wave and electronica. Influenced by guitarists of various genres, Frusciante emphasizes melody and emotion in his guitar playing, and favors vintage guitars and analog recording techniques.
Frusciante joined the Red Hot Chili Peppers at eighteen years old, first appearing on the band's 1989 album, Mother's Milk. The group's follow-up album, Blood Sugar Sex Magik (1991), was a breakthrough success. However, he was overwhelmed by the band's new popularity and quit in 1992. He became a recluse and entered a long period of drug addiction, during which he released his first solo recordings: Niandra Lades and Usually Just a T-Shirt (1994) and then Smile from the Streets You Hold (1997). In 1998, he successfully completed drug rehabilitation and rejoined the Red Hot Chili Peppers with the album Californication (1999). His album To Record Only Water for Ten Days was made in 2001. On a creative spree, Frusciante released six solo albums in 2004; each album explored different recording techniques and genres. In 2009, Frusciante released The Empyrean and again parted ways with the Red Hot Chili Peppers. As of 2011, Frusciante is currently working on his eleventh solo album. Frusciante has produced and/or recorded with the Wu-Tang Clan, The Mars Volta, George Clinton and others. His most recent solo releases will be a 5 song EP entitled Letur-Lefr, due out in July 2012, and a full length album entitled PBX Funicular Intaglio Zone, due out in late 2012.
Marcel Dubé, OC(born in Montreal, Quebec 3 Jan 1930) is a Canadian playwright. He has produced over 300 works for radio, television and the stage. His concerns for the preservation and sanctity of the French language in Quebec was a primary focus of his career.
He studied at Sheridan College in Oakville, Ontario where he got his taste for theatre frequenting the school's auditorium, the historic Salle du Gésu.
He then attended and the plays he wrote there were so successful that he was soon able to write for a living. He founded the group Jeune Scène which at the Dominion Drama Festival in 1953 won several awards with his own play, De l'autre côté du mur which later became Zone.
Over the next five years Radio-Canada presented, on radio and television, over 30 of his works (many of which he later adapted to the stage). He has produced over 300 works for radio, television and the stage.
His concerns for the preservation and sanctity of the French language in Quebec and around the world drove him into many other organizations. He was first secretary, then president, of the Conseil de la langue française, president of the Rencontres francophones du Québec and cofounder and director of the Sécretariat permanent des peuples francophones.
Lucky Philip Dube (pronounced doo-beh) (August 3, 1964 – October 18, 2007) was a South African reggae musician. He recorded 22 albums in Zulu, English and Afrikaans in a 25-year period and was South Africa's biggest selling reggae artist. Dube was murdered in the Johannesburg suburb of Rosettenville on the evening of 18 October 2007.
Lucky Dube was born in Ermelo, formerly of the Eastern Transvaal, now of Mpumalanga, on August 3, 1964. His parents separated before his birth and he was raised by his mother, Sarah, who named him because she considered his birth fortunate after a number of failed pregnancies. Along with his two siblings, Thandi and Patrick, Dube spent much of his childhood with his grandmother, while his mother relocated to work. It was from there that he was introduced to the Mormon religion. In a 1999 interview he described his grandmother as "his greatest love" who "multiplied many things to bring up this responsible individual that I am today."
As a child Dube worked as a gardener but, as he matured, realizing that he wasn't earning enough to feed his family, he began to attend school. There he joined a choir and, with some friends, formed his first musical ensemble, called The Skyway Band. While at school he discovered the Rastafari movement. At the age of 18 Dube joined his cousin's band, The Love Brothers, playing Zulu pop music known as mbaqanga whilst funding his lifestyle by working for Hole and Cooke as a security guard at the car auctions in Midrand. The band signed with Teal Record Company, under Richard Siluma (Teal was later incorporated into Gallo Record Company). Though Dube was still at school, the band recorded material in Johannesburg during his school holidays. The resultant album was released under the name Lucky Dube and the Supersoul. The second album was released soon afterwards, and this time Dube wrote some of the lyrics in addition to singing. It was around this same time when he began to learn English.
So still the green and golden plain in icy spring
They young French convent girls in white singing
He took the sacrament young Antoine not without a blush
He left the priest the good book the bread and cup
And took with him the voices hanging in the silver space
Not till he'd reached the vineyard rim did he look down
On the gentle valley breathing in the sun
Seeing the eastern slope where she lived he spoke her name
In love beyond his years he saw the mist come down
And knew there would be many mists he'd look through
For this mountain star
Ah if you'd seen me there hiding in the orchard
Rejoicing in my warm salt tears
Holding to my heart the beauty of a sad song
Needing, needing you.
On m'avait conseill? d'?crire
Une chanson pour un ?t?
Une chanson o? je pourrais dire
Tout ce que j'ai ? regretter
O? je parlerai de mes richesses
Et de l'amour que je n'ai pas trouv?
Et je dirai, je dirai, je dirai
Qu'est-ce que je fous ici ?
Mais qu'est-ce que je fous ici ?
Je dirai chaque soir je quitte
La ville o? je viens de chanter
Chaque soir reste dans ma t?te
Les yeux d'une fille qui pleurait
Tes yeux ? toi qui es venue me voir
Et je ne sais plus que penser
Et je me dis, je me dis, je me dis
Qu'est-ce que je fous ici ?
Mais qu'est-ce que je fous ici ?
Je cherchais ce que je pouvais te dire
? toi qui t'ennuies dans ton coin
Toi qui t'ennuies depuis des heures
Seule ton verre ? la main
Je ne sais pas je ne sais dire que ce que j'aime
Je ferai mes chansons moi-m?me
Te diras-tu, te diras-tu, te diras-tu
Qu'est-ce que je fous ici ?
Mais qu'est-ce que je fous ici ?
Je dirai je suis millionnaire
J'ai tous les tr?sors que je veux
Tous les tr?sors de la terre
Pourtant il me manque deux yeux
Deux yeux o? je pourrais me perdre
Pour sortir de ma tour d'ivoire
T'as cass? la motogodille,
Maintenant t'as plus qu'? pagayer {2x}
Si tu veux revoir ton ?le,
C'est pas le moment de tra?ner
T'as cass? la motogodille,
Maintenant t'as plus qu'? pagayer
Oh? Anna, oh? Anna,
Echangerait une jolie p'tite vahin?
Oh? Anna, oh? Anna,
Contre une grosse qui sache pagayer
T'as paum? la bo?te ? outils,
Maintenant t'es mal a-outill?
La jolie cl? ? bougie, tu l'as oubli?e au far?
T'as paum? la bo?te ? outils,
Maintenant t'es mal a-outill?
Oh? Anna, oh? Anna,
On n'a jamais r?par? un Seagull
Oh? Anna, oh? Anna,
En lui tapant sur la gueule
Oh? Anna, oh? Anna,
Dieu qu'il grand l'Oc?an Pacifique
Oh? Anna, oh? Anna,
Le premier souffle du printemps
M'emportant au dessus des champs
Par dessus les cytises et les lilas
Vient de me ramener vers toi
Pas besoin de grand feu de joie
pas besoin de tuer le veau gras
Pas de petits plats dans les grands
D'ailleurs je ne reste pas longtemps
Je suis un oiseau de passage
Qui se pose au creux de ta main
J'aimerais poser mes bagages
Sur ton coeur si tu le veux bien
Je suis un oiseau de passage
Fatigu? au bord du chemin
Lorsque je serai repos?
Lorsque j'aurais repris courage
J'entendrai le vent murmurer
Je suis un oiseau de passage
Qui se pose au creux de ta main
J'aimerais poser mes bagages
Sur ton coeur si tu le veux bien
Je suis un oiseau de passage
Fatigu? au bord du chemin
Lorsque j'aurai repris courage
J'entendrai le vent dans les pins
Va plus haut fais le tour de la terre
Va plus haut n'ai peur de rien
Chacun d'entre nous sur la terre
Doit choisir l'endroit qui lui pla?t
Chacun doit vivre ? sa mani?re
Moi j'ai choisi de m'envoler
D'ailleurs si tu voulais vraiment
Te laisser porter par le vent
Je t'apprendrais ? t'envoler
Et tu pourrais m'accompagner
Je suis un oiseau de passage
Qui se pose au creux de ta main
J'aimerais poser mes bagages
Sur ton coeur si tu le veux bien
Je suis un oiseau de passage
Fatigu? au bord du chemin
Lorsque j'aurai repris courage
J'entendrai le vent dans les pins
{refrain guitare}
Va plus haut, va plus haut
Je suis un oiseau de passage
Qui se pose au creux de ta main
J'aimerais poser mes bagages
Sur ton coeur si tu le veux bien
Je suis un oiseau de passage
Fatigu? au bord du chemin
Si nous ne sommes pas tr?s sages
Juste quelques flocons qui tombent
Sur les derni?res traces de pas
Depuis plusieurs jours la ville est morte
Les seuls vivants c'est toi et moi
Juste quelques flocons qui tombent
Tard dans une rue du Marais
La rue est blanche, la rue m'inonde
Tu es si douce ? mon c?t?
Juste quelques flocons qui tombent
Je ne sais pas ceux qui les ont tu?s
Ils avaient si peur de leurs bombes
C'est autre chose qui est arriv?
Juste quelques flocons qui tombent
Nous vivrons bien sans eux au fond
Ils ?taient si fiers de leur monde
Ils l'ont cass? en poussant sur un bouton
Juste quelques flocons qui tombent
Je t'aimerai mais nous serons prudents
Pour ne pas refaire un monde
Je l'appelle Canelle
Parc'que son corps est bronz?
Je l'appelle Canelle
Parc'que ses cheveux sont dor?s
Je l'appelle Canelle
Parc'que sa peau est sucr?e
Si vous voulez savoir
Comment je le sais
C'est parc'que je l'ai go?t?e
J'ai un oiseau qui chante
En fr?tillant des ailes
J'ai un oiseau qui chante
Rien que pour toi ma Canelle
J'ai un oiseau qui chante
Sans jamais se lasser
Si tu veux entendre mon oiseau
Viens chez moi au plus t?t
Aller
Pap pap pa la ta da
Pap pap pa la la
Pap pap pa la ta da...
J'ai emmen? Canelle
Dans mon bel appartement
J'ai install? Canelle
Dans mon grand lit tout blanc
J'ai install? Canelle
Dans ma vie pour tr?s longtemps
Si je ne l'ai pas pr?sent?e ? mes parents
C'est parc'qu'elle n'a que quinze ans
Je l'appelle Canelle
Parc'que son corps est bronz?
Je l'appelle Canelle
Parc'que ses cheveux sont dor?s
Pa la ta pa di tou di da da
Parc'que sa peau est sucr?e
Si vous voulez savoir
Comment je le sais
Ma m?re me dit bonjour
La concierge dans la cour
L'agent de police au carrefour
Le facteur qui vient sonner
La laiti?re et le cr?mier
Ils sont tous l? pour me saluer
{Refrain:}
Alors bonjour salut
Alors bonjour salut
Le ciel est bleu
Je suis heureux
Bonjour salut
Alors bonjour salut
Alors bonjour salut
Le ciel est bleu
Je suis heureux
Bonjour salut
Enchanteurs et magiciens
Oiseaux bleus petits lapins
Princesses ou lutins
Et petits tout petits nains
Elfes et f?es
Anges pour me garder
Tout ? l'air de vraiment
Bien bien bien bien
S'annoncer
{au Refrain, x2}
Bonjour salut
Bonjour salut
Bonjour salut
Bonjour salut
