Just can't get this out of my head these days, it came to me out of nowhere like it does once every year or so ever since I ever listened to it for the first time a few years ago.. love this song but always had a hard time listening to it and stopping listening to it..just a weird situation.. but this time it came with the realization that it is almost like it was written for Chris..even the name of it..as for so many other musicians that don't necessarily share similar stories.. anyway, amazing.   It is really a shame so many haven't even heard of Madrugada at all outside Europe.. amazing band, stopped being a few years ago when one of its members passed away.  This song was written by Sivert Hoyem lead singer, long before this happened.  It was for a Swedish musician/singer whose music he grew up with I guess..

  • Ah the drink and the fun
    The singer, the song
    Sing almighty how long

    Throwin' shapes in the sun
    What strange men we become
    Sing almighty how long

    Then you waste in the pale afternoon
    And it's not gonna stop sometime soon
    But back at the hotel
    You're not feeling too well
    Sing almighty how long
    Who can tell?

    Really, what's it to you
    If it's false or if it's true
    Sing almighty how
    What good does it do?

    When your singing is through
    And they ask on to you
    Sing almighty how
    Really, how do you do?

    Then you shake at the tip of a pen
    And you're not going through this again
    Does it keep you alert?
    Do you know where it hurts?
    Sing almighty how long
    What's the worth?

    But you'll risk it again for a song
    It sounds right, it cannot be wrong
    Your blood and your senses are strong
    And you gotta keep movin' along

    Yeah, you're riskin' it again
    But you're not doing it for them
    No, you're almighty how long
    Your own man
     
    Sing it almighty how long
    Your own song

  • OMG!  MADRUGADA IS BACK!  What are the chances.....  "In June 2018 it was announced that Høyem, Jacobsen and Lauvland Pettersen had reformed the band for a series of shows in 2019."
