Imagine Dragons - Whatever It Takes (Official Music Video)

Lyrics for Imagine Dragons - Whatever It Takes (Lyrics) 

Released May 8, 2017 by Imagine Dragons

… Whatever it takes

'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins

I do whatever it takes

'Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains

Whatever it takes…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOsM-DYAEhY 

[Verse 1]

Falling too fast to prepare for this

Tripping in the world could be dangerous

Everybody circling, it's vulturous

Negative, nepotist

Everybody waiting for the fall of man

Everybody praying for the end of times

Everybody hoping they could be the one

I was born to run, I was born for this

[Pre-Chorus]

Whip, whip

Run me like a race horse

Hold me like a ripcord

Break me down and build me up

I wanna be the slip, slip

Word upon your lip, lip

Letter that you rip, rip

Break me down and build me up

[Chorus]

Whatever it takes

'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins

I do whatever it takes

'Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains

Whatever it takes

You take me to the top

I'm ready for whatever it takes

'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins

I do what it takes

[Verse 2]

Always had a fear of being typical

Looking at my body feeling miserable

Always hanging on to the visual

I wanna be invisible

Looking at my years like a martyrdom

Everybody needs to be a part of 'em

Never be enough, I'm the prodigal son

I was born to run, I was born for this

[Pre-Chorus]

Whip, whip

Run me like a race horse

Hold me like a ripcord

Break me down and build me up

I wanna be the slip, slip

Word upon your lip, lip

Letter that you rip, rip

Break me down and build me up

[Chorus]

Whatever it takes

'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins

I do whatever it takes

'Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains

Whatever it takes

You take me to the top

I'm ready for whatever it takes

'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins

I do what it takes

[Bridge]

Hypocritical, egotistical

Don't wanna be the parenthetical, hypothetical

Working onto something that I'm proud of, out of the box

An epoxy to the world and the vision we've lost

I'm an apostrophe

I'm just a symbol to remind you that there's more to see

I'm just a product of the system, a catastrophe

And yet a masterpiece, and yet I'm half-diseased

And when I am deceased

At least I go down to the grave and die happily

Leave the body of my soul to be a part of me

I do what it takes

[Chorus]

Whatever it takes

'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins

I do whatever it takes

'Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains

Whatever it takes

You take me to the top

I'm ready for whatever it takes

'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins

I do what it takes

On Dec. 25, 2001, the Christian rock band, P.O.D. released “Youth of the Nation”

P.O.D. - Youth Of The Nation (Official Video)

By Kevin Dayhoff, assembled from multiple sources Dec. 26, 2018

On Dec. 25, 2001, the American Christian metal band, P.O.D. released “Youth of the Nation,” a single from the album “Satellite,” written by Noah Bernardo, Marcos Curiel, Traa Daniels, and Sonny Sandoval. For many historians, the song is accepted as an anthem of the era in its telling of three stories of adolescent tragedy in American culture.

If you check out the official Atlantic Records’ music video carefully, directed by Paul Fedor, Carhenge is used as a backdrop for parts of the chorus; and the book “On the Road” by Jack Kerouac can be seen on the dashboard of the car - https://youtu.be/EDKwCvD56kw. 

According to multiple sources, but best explained by Zachary Fenell, in “Alternative Rock Songs About Suicide,” October 11, 2010, “It begins by describing a teenager unknowingly skating to school only to be shot by a fellow student. Lyrics go on to speculate whether or not the boy who committed the act felt unloved. 

“Following the chorus, a 12-year-old girl called ‘little Suzie’ is depicted as having been abandoned by her father and subsequently ‘finding love in all the wrong places.’ 

“Finally, another teen known as ‘Johnny boy’ fails to fit in with his peers and ultimately commits suicide by firearm, ‘[telling] the world how he felt with the sound of a gat.’”

In an interview with Mitchell Blatt in 2008, “Back Together, New Album in April” Curiel said, "When you can hear something that's going to uplift you like 'Alive' or something that's going to bring out knowledge like 'Youth of the Nation,' we've done our jobs as an artist."

Marianne Faithfull - Broken English 1979

Could have come through anytime,
Cold lonely, puritan
What are you fighting for ?
It's not my security.
It's just an old war,
Not even a cold war,
Don't say it in Russian,
Don't say it in German.
Say it in broken English,
Say it in broken English.

Lose your father, your husband,
Your mother, your children.
What are you dying for ?
It's not my reality.
It's just an old war,
Not even a cold war,
Don't say it in Russian,
Don't say it in German.
Say it in broken English,
Say it in broken English.

What are you fighting for ?

Crosby Nash BBC - Guinnevere September 11, 1970

Crosby Nash BBC - Guinnevere September 11, 1970 #amwriting

These videos are from a September 11 1970 half hour television performance Graham and David did for the BBC.

It was right after CSNY had finished their famous...or infamous... four way street summer tour. with stories of epic melt downs and cosmic feedings between them all, the all star endeavor which had only began two years prior had all but imploded on itself.

Fortunately, all of the guys didn't abandon their relationships all together. Neil recruited Stephen, David, and Graham for backing vocals on After the Gold Rush and Harvest. Crosby invited, among other amazing musicians, Nash, and Young to sing and play on his consummate album If I Could Only Remember My Name.

(Interestingly, of all the musicians David invited to play on his album: Nash, Young, Jerry Garcia,Phil Lesh, Mickey Hart,Bill Kreutzmann, Jorma Kaukonen, Joni Mitchell, Grace Slick, David Freiberg, Paul Kantner, Jack Casady, Gregg Rolie, and Michael Shrieve...missing was Stephen Stills)

Of all the members of CSNY David and Graham's relationship seemed to be the one that stayed most friendly. In these videos you can really see how jovial and genuinely humorous they were with each other and with their audience. not to mention their majestic vocal blending. (the two part harmonies, which sound like five part, on Guinnevere and Song With no Words are particularly mind blowing)

If you dig this flavor of Crosby and Nash i would recommend finding a copy of their 10/10/1971 live recording Another Stoney Evening if you haven't already.

------------------------------------------------

David and Graham play Guinnevere from the first CSN album; it's amazing to hear how well their voice blend. obviously the three part harmony on the album is out of this world, but it's almost another thing to hear just the two of them. voices dancing around like footprints on the beaches. 

------------------------------------------------

"[Following the break up] Crosby and Nash embarked on a successful acoustic tour accompanied only by their own guitars and piano, captured for the document Another Stoney Evening.

On tour, Nash and Crosby rediscovered the joy they had felt with CSN at first, minus the egotistic in-fighting that had made the last CSNY shows so difficult. That enthusiasm led to the studio for their first album as a duo, a mix of abstract introspection from Crosby and concise pop tunes from Nash prosaically entitled Graham Nash David Crosby, which peaked at #4 on the pop album chart."

Alvin Lee Is Going Home: 'Ten Years After' Guitarist Dies

By MARK MEMMOTT March 06, 2013

http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2013/03/07/173630819/alvin-lee-is-going-home-ten-years-after-guitarist-dies

Guitarist Alvin Lee, whose incendiary performance with the British band Ten Years After was one of the highlights of the 1969 Woodstock festival, has died.

He was 68. Lee's website says he "passed away early this morning [Wednesday] after unforeseen complications following a routine surgical procedure." An assistant to his daughter also confirmed the news to NPR.

His band's biggest hit — "I'd Love to Change the World" — came a couple years after Woodstock. We'll embed a clip from that.

[…]

Guitar Aficionado put it this way in a piece published last year: …

[…]

If you haven't heard "I'm Going Home" in a while, click here.

According to the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, a good source for Woodstock history, Ten Years After's set on Aug. 17, 1969, came right after the performance by Country Joe and the Fish and right before The Band.

Update at 8:15 a.m. ET, March 7. From Morning Edition:

Our friends on Morning Edition have more on Lee, including clips of him playing. According to host Steve Inskeep, Ten Years After never played "I'd Love to Change the World" in concert, preferring to stick to the blues.

I want to know you
I want to show you
I want to grow you
Inside of me
I want to see you
I want to free you
I want to be you
Inside of me
Love me 50,000 miles beneath my brain
Love me 50,000 times and then again

Can you love me with a thousand eyes?
Can you see right through my bones?
Can you kiss me with a thousand lips?
Can you melt a solid stone?
Can you hear me from a thousand miles
When you're screaming at the stars?
Can you pull me up to Jupiter
When I'm all hung up on Mars?
Burn my eyes with your flame
Let your world spin free
Let it go, baby
I'll do the same
All depends on me
Let it go
It's all the same
What with jewels that you can't see
Love me, love me, love me, love me, love me, babe
Bring it on home to me...

"I'm American" Lyrics:

I'm an American related to all colors of brethren, Priests and Pastors and Prophets and Reverends, Divided we fall united we stand together man, In this cultural melting pot there's nothing better than, This land of the free and the home of the brave, Populated by ancestors of immigrants and slaves who met early graves, So we could see brighter days and we could proudly praise and raise the stars and stripes as Americans

Hate me
Blame me
You can't shame me
Come and stand with me
I'm American

I'm an American born in these states united, Where racial discrimination keeps us so divided, Well we've got free speech so I won't be quiet, We got a lot of problems here man I won't deny it, But ain't another place that I'd rather be, Than in this land of great opportunity, Where we can be anything that we wanna be, So until the day I D-I-E, I stand tall as an American

*****

With "I'm American," the second video from the new album "Southern Born Killers," Stuck Mojo once again takes a stand for pride in country, self-respect and self-reliance. These themes have been a constant throughout the band's career. Following in the footsteps of the wildly successful video for "Open Season," Mojo once again takes a politically incorrect position by not being ashamed of the qualities that have made America great.

You may download the entire "Southern Born Killers" album, for free, at the band's web site StuckMojo . us.
