Whisky in der Musik?

Unbekannt

John Mayer - whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
allerdings nur im refrain

Antoine "Fats" Domino - Whiskey Heaven (Ruhe in Frieden, du warst 'ne coole Sau!)



Every afternoon when I wake up
I say a little prayer and I drink up
I thank the lord for driving me home
Once more

There's an open bottle on the table
And an empty bottle on the floor
Last night I thought I'd died
And I went to Whiskey Heaven

You know the sun never shines in Whiskey Heaven
It rains Jack Daniels all the time
There's a price you pay, hang overs everyday
Flyin' high with honkey tonk angels in Whiskey Heaven

There's a run down bar, it's a open all night
When me and my friends can get tight
Underneath the neon lights
In Whiskey Heaven

Well we drank a little beer and wine
We stay drunk most of the time
We're always raisin' hell all night
In Whiskey Heaven

You know the sun never shines in Whiskey Heaven
It rains Jack Daniels all the time
There's a price you pay, hang overs everyday
Flyin' high with honkey tonk angels in Whiskey Heaven

Fly high with honky-tonk angels in Whiskey Heaven
Fly high with honky-tonk angels in Whiskey Heaven

Da gibt`s für mich nur Johnny Winter mit dem Diving Duck blues.

If the river (Ruhr:mrgreen was whiskey and I was a divin
Baby I was a diving duck, whoa
If the river was whiskey and I was a divin Duck
I would dive on the bottom, Baby I would never come up

Ich fass es nicht, dass bis jetzt noch niemand The Dubliners - Nancy Whiskey genannt hat. Nicht zu vergessen Drink it up Men.
Was mir auch noch einfällt wäre Dropkick Murphys - Blood and Whiskey.

Lindwurm

Gerade von den Dubliners gibts ja jede Menge Songs in denen es um das Lebenswasser geht.

"Whiskey on a Sunday"

ist auch ein echt schöner Song.

Der Bluesgott schlechthin:

Muddy Waters - Sweet Little Angel

I've got a sweet little angel
I love the way she spread her wings

Yes got a sweet little angel
I love the way she spread her wings

Yes when she spread her wings around me
I get joy in everything

You know I asked my baby for a nickel
And she gave me a twenty dollar bill

Yes I asked my baby for a nickel
And she gave me a twenty dollar bill

Well you know I asked her for a little drink of liquor
And she gave me a whiskey still

If my baby quit me
Well I do believe I would die

If my baby quit me
Well I do believe I would die

Yes if you don't love me little angel
Please tell me the reason why

Nun, einer meiner absoluten Blues / Blues-Rock Favoriten RORY GALLAGHER wurde ja schon erwähnt mit einem Song.
Bei seinem Lebenswandel verwundert es aber nicht, dass er nicht nur einen Song mit "Whiskey" geschrieben hat.

Spotan fällt mir ein:

Barley And Grape Rag
Written By Rory Gallagher
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_VBi53CROE

WELL I DON’T CARE IF I GET ARRESTED
‘CAUSE TONIGHT THEY’LL NEED MORE THAN A BALL AND CHAIN
I DON’T CARE WHO’S INTERESTED
I’M COMING IN TO TOWN JUST THE SAME

I’VE BEEN SO ALONE, I’VE BEEN FEELING BLUE
I THINK I NEED A LITTLE BEER OR TWO
BE MY FRIEND, TELL ME WHERE THAT PLACE IS
WHERE THE WHISKEY FLOWS AND THE DICE’S ROLL TILL DAWN

MY BABY’S DONE ME WRONG YOU MUST HAVE GUESSED IT
MY HEART’S SO LOW I THINK IT MUST BE TOLD
THAT I DON’T WANNA KNOW WHERE EAST OR WEST IS
‘COS PRETTY SOON I WON’T FEEL THE COLD

WHEN I’M WALKING DOWN MAIN STREET FEELING NO PAIN
ALONG COMES A COP, HE CAN TAKE MY NAME
AND EXPLAIN TO ME WHAT A FEDERAL CASE IS
I’M MIXING THE BARLEY WITH THE GRAPE AGAIN
BRIGHT CITY LIGHTS THEY MAKE YOU FEEL ALRIGHT
I’M RIGHT OR WRONG YEAH TOMORROW NEVER COMES

I DON’T CARE IF I GET INVESTIGATED
AND THE CITY FATHERS THEY ALL BLACK MY NAME
I’M PRETTY SURE YOU CAN SMELL THE TRACES
BUT TOMORROW MORNING I’LL TAKE ALL THE BLAME

I’VE BEEN FEELING BAD AND FEELING BLUE,
I THINK I NEED A LITTLE WHISKEY OR TWO
GOD BROTHER YOU LOOK LIKE YOU COULD DO WITH IT TOO
TONIGHT I’LL SLEEP ON A WALKING CANE
BRIGHT CITY LIGHTS THEY MAKE YOU FEEL ALRIGHT
I’M RIGHT OR WRONG YEAH TOMORROW NEVER COMES

WELL I DON’T CARE IF I GET ARRESTED
‘CAUSE TONIGHT THEY’LL NEED MORE THAN A BALL AND CHAIN
I DON’T CARE JUST WHO’S INTERESTED
I’M COMING IN TO TOWN JUST THE SAME

I’VE BEEN SO ALONE, I’VE BEEN FEELING BLUE
I THINK I NEED A LITTLE BEER OR TWO
BE MY FRIEND, TELL ME WHERE THAT PLACE IS
WHERE THE WHISKEY FLOWS AND THE DICE’S ROLL TILL DAWN


EDIT / Nachtrag:
Jetzt ist mir doch noch ein anderer Song von einer ganz anderen Band eingefallen.
Ganz andere musikalische Ecke und da fällt der Whisky eigentlich auch nur nebenbei.

Band: Witthüser & Westrupp
Song: Laßt uns auf die Reise gehn
Album: Trips und Träume
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hO_lOlyzzv0

Lass uns auf die Reise gehen,
andres Land zu suchen!
Wo man den Sommer ohne Whiskey erträgt
und den Winter ohne Kohlen auskommt,
wo das Lieben nicht müde macht.
In anderer Landschaft.

Lass uns auf die Reise gehen,
andres Land zu suchen!
Wo die Heimat der schreitenden Reiher ist,
der Sommer den Tieren im Maule liegt
und wo es keine Tränen gibt.
In anderer Landschaft.

Leg dir etwas Kleingeld hin,
das Kleingeld der Träume.
Über die Lieder von Abschied und Ankunft:
Der Abschied ist leicht und die Ankunft ist schwer.
Der Rückweg ist dunkel und weit
aus anderer Landschaft.

Lass uns auf die Reise gehen,
andres Land zu suchen!
Wo Mauern und Zäune schon abgebaut sind,
wo Wiesen ohne Kettenspur grünen
und wo man ohne Theater stirbt.
In anderer Landschaft.

In Deutschland unbekannt, da Text auf polnisch.
In Polen absoluter Blues-Kult:

Dżem - Whisky

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CU8u3XD0Wis

ÜBERSETZUNG INS ENGLISCHE
They are talkin' about me in town: "Who's this guy?
He's always strolling around drunk, surely he doesn't know what shame is.
Dirty, unpleasant, he's regularly sleeping in the stables.
What is he looking for in our town?
Go to hell!" people are saying.
People full of virtue, people full of virtue.

Once I wanted to become wise and be on their side,
Sleep in clean sheets, drink fresh milk.
I really wanted to become wise and be on their side,
That's why I thought about a wife,
To become one of them,
To become one of them, to become one of them.

I had a hacienda in my mind, a wonderful one - you know,
But none of the beautiful ladies wanted to live there.
They all laughed and shouted, shouted at me every time:
A nice tail coat you have on, Billy,
But you wouldn't make a good husband,
Wouldn't make a good husband, wouldn't make a good husband.

Whisky my bride, you are the best of all them ladies.
You won't leave me yet, no, I won't be alone.
They say whisky, that's not all, you can live without her.
But these people don't know about it,
That the worst thing in life is
Being alone, being alone.

Grade im Auto gehört:

NoFX - Theme from a NoFX Album

Refrain:
Singin' singin' singin'
Buy me a Becks beer or pass me a bong
Gimmie some Bushmills, I'll sing you this song
Open another big box of cheap wine
We're over 30 we're doing just fine.

und der letzte Refrain:
Buy me a castle or pass me a bong
give me Glenlivet, I'll sing you this song.
Open another big box of cheap wine,
if you take the low road then I'll take the high.


Ich habe das Album schon seit Jahren und das ist mir nie so direkt aufgefallen. Sachen gibt's.

Honeymoon Suite-Lagavulin

Empty bottle lagavulin
Sits on the window sill
And it's somethin' like a long lost friend
These inner voices
They come to talk awhile
It's always the same in their words
Just lookin' for some lightnin'
Just need a new place to be

And when they say
Some things to hurt you
They don't mean them truthfully
It's just that you're someone
No one can follow
And they can't say it honestly

Gotta wake up gotta realize
It's just not there anymore
It's a bad habit you can't break
So don't call me, don't involve me
I'm plannin' to be here awhile
Should done it so long ago
