This song is by John Martyn. He's my favorite artist ever. He's the most amazingly creative and original artist I know and inspires my own music greatly.

This song will touch your hearts no doubt, it explains how I and everyone else on this forum feels!!

It's called "Don't want to know".

Please listen!

Lyrics:

Don't Want To Know

And I don't want to know about evil
Only want to know about love
I don't want to know about evil
Only want to know about love.

Sometimes it gets so hard to listen
Hard for me to use my eyes
And all around the cold is glistening
Making sure it keeps me down to size.

And I don't want to know about evil
Only want to know about love
I don't want to know one thing about evil
Only want to know about love.

I'm waiting for the planes to tumble
Waiting for the towns to fall
I'm waiting for the cities to crumble
Waiting till I see you crawl.

Yes it's getting hard to listen
Hard for us to use our eyes
Cause all around that gold is glistening
Making sure it keeps us hypnotized.

And I don't want to know about evil
I only want to know about love
I don't want to know about evil
Only want to know about love.

I don't want to know anything about evil
Only want to know about love
I don't want to know about evil
Only want to know about love.



Much love to you all! :D

just listened to this track and wondered again at the meaning hinted at in it but didnt know where to post it so here's a good a place as any if anyone has any insights into it please post as bolan was steeped in mysticism and occult in the early days and studied magic in paris at age 14 he said with someoen whom he reffered to as the wizrd ? crowley perhaps .

.Ballrooms Of Mars
by T-Rex

You gonna look fine
Be primed for dancing
You're gonna trip and glide
All on the trembling plane
Your diamond hands
Will be stacked with roses
And wind and cars
And people of the past

I'll call you thing
Just when the moon sings
And place your face in stone
Upon the hill of stars
And gripped in the arms
Of the changeless madman
We'll dance our lives away
In the Ballrooms of Mars

You talk about day
I'm talking 'bout night time
When the monsters call out
The names of men
Bob Dylan knows
And I bet Alan Freed did
There are things in night
That are better not to behold

You dance
With your lizard leather boots on
And pull the strings
That change the faces of men
You diamond browed hag
You're a gutter-gaunt gangster
John Lennon knows your name
And I've seen his

:D
