10000 Maniacs ~ The Painted Desert


[ jerome augustyniak/natalie merchant ] The painted desert can wait till summer. We've played this game of just imagine long enough. Wait till summer? When i'm sure the rains have ended, the blooms have gone, Everyone killed by the morning frost. Is a cactus blooming there in every roadside stand Where the big deal is cowboy gear won in japan? The painted desert can wait till summer. We've played this game of just imagine long enough. Wait till summer? When i'm sure the rains have ended and the blooms have gone, Everyone killed by the morning frost. Is a cactus blooming there upon the northern rim Or in the ruins of the hopi mesa dens? You met a new friend in the canyon, or so you wrote. On a blanket in the cooling sand you and your friend agreed that The stars were so many there they seemed to overlap. The painted desert can wait till summer. We've played this game of just imagine long enough. Wait till summer? When i am sure the rain has ended, the blooms have gone, Everyone killed by the morning frost. Was a cactus blooming there as you watched the native boy? In flagstaff trailer court, you wrote the line: "he kicked a tumbleweed and his mother called him home where the arizona moon met the arizona sun." I wanted to be there by may at the latest time. Isn't that the plan we had or have you changed your mind? I haven't read a word from you since phoenix or tucson. April is over will you tell me how long before i can be there? more free lyrics

The painted desert can wait till summer.
We've played this game of just imagine long enough.
Wait till summer?
When i'm sure the rains have ended, the blooms have gone,
Everyone killed by the morning frost.
Is a cactus blooming there in every roadside stand
Where the big deal is cowboy gear won in japan?

The painted desert can wait till summer.
We've played this game of just imagine long enough.
Wait till summer?
When i'm sure the rains have ended and the blooms have gone,
Everyone killed by the morning frost.
Is a cactus blooming there upon the northern rim
Or in the ruins of the hopi mesa dens?

You met a new friend in the canyon, or so you wrote.
On a blanket in the cooling sand you and your friend agreed that
The stars were so many there they seemed to overlap.

The painted desert can wait till summer.
We've played this game of just imagine long enough.
Wait till summer?
When i am sure the rain has ended, the blooms have gone,
Everyone killed by the morning frost.
Was a cactus blooming there as you watched the native boy?
In flagstaff trailer court, you wrote the line:
"he kicked a tumbleweed and his mother called him home where the arizona moon met the arizona sun."

I wanted to be there by may at the latest time.
Isn't that the plan we had or have you changed your mind?
I haven't read a word from you since phoenix or tucson.
April is over will you tell me how long before i can be there?

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
