Listen, The Snow Is Falling

This was written by Yoko Ono , was produced by her, John Lennon and Phil Spector, and was released on the Apple label January 21, 1972 as the B Side of "Mind Train."

This was not though the first recording of the song; in his authorized biography of Al Stewart, Neville Judd reveals that it was actually recorded, apparently for the first time, in the basement flat at number 10 Elvaston Place. Al moved there on January 1, 1968, and no, his relationship with Yoko was strictly professional, by that time he had already hooked up with Mandi, the love of his life and the woman who nearly wrecked his head, until he met his future wife at the age of 42.

When Yoko recorded the 45, she sent him a copy.

The song opens with wintry sound effects, and has a Japanese feel to it, though it remains to be seen if this is for the obvious reason, accidental or perhaps even illusory. (thanks, Alexander Baron - London, England, for above 2)

Down Lyrics

Oh oh yeah I'm here Downtown

You wanna watch me fall (watch me fall)
But I won't break (I won't break)
I know you like to hit me,

You tryna bring me down

Down down, down down
Down down, down down
Down down, down down
Down down, down down (what the hell)

If you wanna please me

Then I'm gon' let you down (let you down)
Just to prove a point
That you can't break a man who's already down

Down down, down down
Down down, down down
Down down, down down
Down down, down down (what the hell)

It's getting a little louder (louder)
A little louder (louder)

Down down, down down (You can never ever bring me down)
Down down, down down
Down down, down down
Down down, down down
Down down, down down (what the hell)

Down

The first song to be made available from the Kooks' Listen album, it received its worldwide premiere on Zane Lowe's March 11 2014 BBC Radio 1 show. "Down" was released on April 20 via Virgin/EMI and was described as "a mission statement from a band that have rediscovered what they loved about making music in the first place."

The R&B-influenced song was written by the band's frontman Luke Pritchard and Hip-Hop pioneer Inflo, who co-produced Listen. Recording sessions were split between London and LA. "With this record we didn't do any rehearsing beforehand," Pritchard said. "I'd write a song with Inflo or on my own, put it up and we'd all play over it. There was a real freedom to the process."

Forgive & Forget Lyrics

Don't say that I never moved you
Just because I saw the light before you did
And you say that I never showed you
All the rooms inside of my soul

Yeah
Yeah
You say you need someone to love you
But it ain't me

Walking up and down the hall
Frankie and his favorite lover
Speaking all the words she wants to hear
But that don't mean forever

Yeah
You say you need someone to love you
But it ain't me

Yeah
You say you need someone to love you
But it ain't me

Sitting down by the fire
Frankie plays the guitar
To people playing make believe
They say, "can we get a little higher?"

You give it away
You give it away
You give it away
You give it away
So easy baby
But I can't stand
An hour break
Another day
So let me make it easy babe

And it goes on and on
On and on and on

Packing her bags
She found somewhere to stay
And in the car to the station
You know the world looks a little brighter
And then there's no need for conversations
Tell me why

You give it away
You give it away
You give it away
You give it away
So easy baby
But I can't stand
An hour break
Another day
So let me make it easy babe

Yeah
You say you need someone to love you

Yeah
You say you need someone to love you
But it ain't me

Yeah
I forgive and forget you
You say you need someone to love you
But it ain't me
Yeah
So I forgive and forget you
You say you need someone to love you
But it ain't me

Forgive & Forget Song Chart

After bonding with Inflo whilst traveling in America, Kooks fromtman Luke Pritchard headed to Los Angeles with the hip hop producer to pen some tunes. This story of a couple breaking up in a bar was the first song they wrote together. The singer explained to Q magazine that the "magic" first take vocal demo for this song in LA was later sewn into the band's London sessions.

The song's performance-based video was directed by Ivana Bobic, who is known for the movies The Priest and Frankie Teardrop (both 2009) and In the Night (2012). The clip finds The Kooks performing the song 'in the round', surrounded by dancers. Bibic told Promo News : "Forgive & Forget is such a fun, big track that I wanted to have an all-singing-all-dancing approach to it - the whole lot - band, dancers and a giant human zoetrope."

"The title suggested a kind of tongue-in-cheek love amnesia and constant repetition, so I wondered if I could make the whole video circular - constantly spinning around and around," she added. "I wanted the dancers to multiply into the band performance as the track progresses, they're like space-babes with an Alexander Wang twist, appearing from the dark. The dance builds and builds to the big middle eight drums where the whole spinning circus accelerates to a giant zoetrope and the dancers turn into one. It's a bit of a visual pun on the 'forgetting.'"

It Was London Lyrics

It was in London
Where we heard the revolution
From Covent Garden
All the way down to Brixton

It was in Tottenham
Man got shot by a policeman
A young girl went to test them
Went up against the system
Oh oh, I don't know

Who are you
Who are you

On the television
Of course they blame the youth for disruption
Cause they took Fortnum & Mason
And nothing said about the shooting
Just the looting

It was in London
It was in London

And it was thunder
Caught between love and anger
From Trafalgar
All the way up to Camden

Can you believe this is London?
Can you believe this is London?
Can you believe this is London?
Can you believe this is London?
Can you believe this is London?
Can you believe this is London?
Can you believe this is London?

London town, London town
London town, London town

It Was London Song Chart

This gritty tune finds Luke Pritchard recounting the 2011 London Riots, which left England's capital city in a state of mayhem. The Kooks vocalist explained to Sound Of Boston how the song tried to capture the band's feelings at the time: "A big city like that, London, Paris, you have this illusion that everything's safe, and that sort of thing happens and the walls come crashing down," he said. "The police brutality that happened around that time… we wrote a song about that."

Thousands of mostly young males rioted in several London boroughs for several days during early August 2011 as well as in other places in England. The resulting chaos generated looting and arson as well as the deaths of five people. The riots inspired a number of songs including:

"Kids" by Mikky Ekko

"Uptight Downtown" by La Roux

In addition the video for Plan B's single "Ill Manors" features footage of the riots.

No Money No Love Lyrics

Yeah yeah yeah yeah eh eh
Born in this world
I say it's no money no love
No money no love
Yeah yeah yeah
In case you wanna hear it again
It's no money no love
No money no love
Yeah yeah yeah

It's sure you love me now as the world is in my favor
Watch me while I disappear
No money no love

(Yeah yeah yeah)

Oh
I get my heart scarred
From all my sins (Hey)
Was my payback to never feel old again
Do you see the scars bruising my skin
Oh I wish I could erase them and start all over again
Yeah maybe I should get down on my knees and I'll still be forgiven
For what I've done

Born in this world
I say it's no money no love
No money no love
Yeah yeah yeah
In case you wanna hear it again
It's no money no love
No Money No Love (No money no love)
Yeah yeah yeah (No money no love)

It's sure you love me now as the world is in my favor
Watch me while I disappear
No money no love

(Yeah yeah yeah)

Who do I call when the world's closing in
Is it too late for me to be dead
I'd give my life to be loved again
I'd cross my heart and clap all night
Can you say this dealer, have some mercy

Maybe I should get down on my knees and I'll still be forgiven
For what I've done

Born in this world
I say it's no money no love
No money no love
Yeah yeah yeah
In case you wanna hear it again
It's no money no love
No money no love (No money no love)
Yeah yeah yeah (No money no love)

It's sure you love me now as the world is in my favor
Watch me while I disappear
No money no love (No money no love)
No money no love, no

No Money No Love Song Chart

This is one of three tracks on Listen that Dutch sibling electronic music duo Showtek show up on. After laying down "Bad" with Guetta in 2013, the Janssen brothers spent a fortnight working on new songs with him in the studio in January 2014. It then took the trio another half a year to complete "No Money, No Love" and "Sun Goes Down" due to their touring schedules.

Showtek explained the collaboration to Billboard magazine: "David enters the studio with a song as an idea of how the song should be about. For him, it starts with a lyric, and for us it's about having a catchy melody. When you put that together, you have great ingredients that can work together."

"We made 25 versions of "No Money No Love," because he's really detail-oriented and everything must be perfect," they added. "It took at least six months, because you don't see each other every day to make it really fit and have new vocal sessions and trips to see each other."

The song features vocal contributions from the Swedish singer and rapper Elliphant and the UK Garage legend Ms. Dynamite. The later also supplied vocals on Katy B's second single, "Lights On" and the DJ Fresh Versus Jay Fray hit track "Dibby Dibby Sound."

Sun Goes Down Lyrics

Oh wooh
Oh gonna break it, break it, break it, break it down for you, oh
Once more, oh

When the sun goes down
And your eyes cannot see
When the sun goes down
And your hands cannot reach
When your bones feel like breaking
And your heart cannot take another run
I'll be there when the Sun Goes Down

All that I want
Is just to be crazy when the sun goes down
And all that I need
Is for you to be my baby when the sun goes down

When the sun goes down

Baby get down

Baby get down
Oh
Oh (Yeah eh eh eh)

When the sun goes down
We'll be dancing in the dark
When the sun goes down
To the beating of your heart
As the Earth moves in orbit
I will always be the one
Who stands my ground
I'll be there when the sun goes down (Everybody now come and sing along with that track now)

All that I want
Is just to go crazy when the sun goes down
And all that I need
Is for you to be my baby when the sun goes down

All that I want
Is just to go crazy when the sun goes down
And all that I need
Is for you to be my baby when the sun goes down

When the sun goes down (When the sun goes down)
When the sun goes down (When the sun goes down)
When the sun goes down
I see you around

Sun Goes Down Song Chart

This is one of three Listen tracks that features the Dutch sibling electronic music duo Showtek; these Janssen brothers also show up on "Bad" and "No Money No Love." Frequent Showtek collaborator Sonny Wilson and Canadian reggae-pop band Magic! also contributed to the track.

Showtek told Billboard magazine about their collaborations with Guetta. "Our whole career started as producers, we never dreamed of becoming performing Djs," they said. "When we started making music, it was a hobby that started when we were 15 or 16. Working with David was a great chance to try producing pop, reggae and the dance music from nowadays. The songs definitely have a good Showtek touch but also more crossover pop and reggae styles from David."

"It's fun to try and do different stuff and experiment and see where you can go with it," Showtek added. "It's good to be diverse and try different stuff. David is very good to work with. He has the ability to put things together I'd never think of, he's been doing it already for like 15 years. He's very good at knowing what to put together with what and have a vision for how it should be produced. Putting a different style vocal with a different sound and find the right people to work with."

Listen Lyrics

Let's hit the road and away we go
Take a new direction to a different coast
Maybe we should try and put it on the line
You've gotta trust me now, turn up the radio
Tune out the world and roll with the melody
Baby, Listen close and open up your mind

Imagine if anywhere
More than miles, I'll take you there
Knew one day, from the start
We'd be as one, now here we are

All we gotta do is listen
All we gotta do is listen
All we gotta do is listen
All we gotta do is listen

Listen, all we gotta do is listen
All we gotta do is listen
All we gotta do is listen

Soundtrack in the wind, like passing violins
I can be your rhythm in the silence
And every time we sing, it echoes in the sky
Let me close your eyes, help you fantasize
Make a kiss our playlist the entire night
Listen to the words as I let 'em fly, oh

Imagine if anywhere
More than miles, I'll take you there
Knew one day, from the start
We'd be as one, now here we are

All we gotta do is listen
All we gotta do is listen
All we gotta do is listen
All we gotta do is listen

Listen, all we gotta do is listen
All we gotta do is listen
All we gotta do is listen

Listen, all we gotta do is listen
All we gotta do is listen
All we gotta do is listen

This cut follows Guetta's often-used formula of starting slowly and quietly before developing into a booming synth and bass-filled chorus. ("Titanium" is a good example).

The song features guest vocals by John Legend.

The song is the title track of David Guetta's sixth studio album. "I worked with piano, violins, guitars and blended them with electronic elements," said the French EDM star. "It's also my most personal album lyrically, which is why I called it Listen. Dance too, but really it's from the heart."
