Black Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The sunshine fills my hair
And dreams hang in the air
Gulls in the sky and in my blue eye
You know it feels unfair
There's magic everywhere
Look at me standing
Here on my own again
No need to run and hide
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
The sun's in your eyes
the heat is in your hair
They seem to hate you
because you're there
And I need a friend
oh I need a friend
to make me happy
Not stand here on my own
Look at me standing
Here on my own again
Up straight in the sunshine
No need to run and hide
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
I need a friend, oh I need a friend
To make me happy, not so alone
Look at me here
Here on my own again
Up straight in the sunshine
No need to run and hide
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to run and hide
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Wonderful life
Wonderful life
The lyrics to "Wonderful Life" by Black convey a sense of loneliness and longing for companionship, despite the beauty of the world around the singer. The imagery of the sun filling their hair and dreams hanging in the air creates a picturesque atmosphere, but the singer feels isolated without a friend. The gulls in the sky and in the singer's blue eye emphasize the juxtaposition between the freedom and beauty of nature and the singer's internal struggle. The repetition of "Here on my own again" reinforces this sense of solitude.
The chorus provides a sense of hope, with the singer acknowledging that life is indeed wonderful despite their loneliness. The line "No need to run and hide" suggests that the singer has previously tried to escape their feelings, but now they have come to an acceptance that life can be beautiful even in its imperfections. The repetition of the chorus drives this message home, emphasizing that the beauty of life is worthy of celebration.
Overall, "Wonderful Life" is a melancholic yet ultimately uplifting song, capturing the complexities of the human experience.

"Cudowne życie"
Oto wychodzę nad morze ponownie.
Światło słońca wypełnia moje włosy,
a marzenia wiszą w powietrzu.
Mewy na niebie i w moich niebieskich oczach.
Wiesz, że to niesprawiedliwe.
Wszędzie jest magia.
Spójrz na mnie, stojącego tu
znowu samotnie..
W blasku słońca.
Nie ma potrzeby uciekać i ukrywać się,
to jest cudowne, cudowne życie...
Nie ma potrzeby śmiać się i płakać...
To cudowne, cudowne życie.
Słońce w Twoich oczach
I ciepło w Twoich włosach.
Wydaje się, że Cię nie znoszą
tylko za to, że jesteś tam.
A ja potrzebuje przyjaciela..
Och, jak potrzebuję przyjaciela!
Który uczyni mnie szczęśliwym.
Abym nie stał tutaj sam.
Spójrz na mnie, stojącego tu
znowu samotnie..
W blasku słońca.
Nie ma potrzeby uciekać i ukrywać się,
to jest cudowne, cudowne życie...
Nie ma potrzeby śmiać się i płakać...
To cudowne, cudowne życie.
Potrzebuję przyjaciela...
Och, jak potrzebuję przyjaciela!
Który uczyni mnie szczęśliwym.
Bym nie był taki samotny.
Nie ma potrzeby, aby uciekać i ukrywać się,
to jest cudowne, cudowne życie...
Nie ma potrzeby śmiać się i płakać...
To cudowne, cudowne życie.
Cudowne życie.

Что такое гений... Не рвал глотку, не выпрыгивал из штанов, не использовал бэк-вокал и подтанцовку, не набрасывал эффекты на голос, не одевался в блестки, не перекусывал на сцене пернатым шею. Просто, прекрасная мелодия и прекрасный текст. Вышла бессмертная песня.
@gs8526
Как я с тобой согласен. Привет из Германии! 👍
@valerapshenichnyj5625
Согласен, но Оззи тоже гений
@cakes3d230

@decimal4334
@Valera Pshenichnyj а то, что когда он обнаружил, что мышь была живая и обосрался от страха и побежал делать прививку, это ведомо тебе?
@valerapshenichnyj5625
@Decimal а то ,что эта мышь была резиновая , тебе известно ? Ты пробовал хоть раз взять и бросить живую летучую мышь на сцену ,да чтоб она не взлетела ,как это обычно бывает,а упала к ногам великого Оззи , а потом лежала и ждала пока ей откусят голову ? Я даже в то время, когда узнал об этом, подумал ,что мышка вряд-ли была живой , или мертвая или игрушечная . А уж спустя столько лет , можно придумывать разные легенды . Оззи концерт продолжил , если что .

My wife and I were on a trip to Ireland to bring in the new year of 2016. We ended up staying an extra week, we were in a restaurant and I recognised Colin sitting with friends and sent the table a bottle of wine.
He came over, shook our hands and was totally charming. When we asked for our bill, we were told Mr Vercombe had taken care of it. A short time later he was gone. RIP Colin and thank you.
