De TakandBand februari song van 2025: “The Workers”. De songclip is gemaakt in samenwerking met studenten van BUas.
“The Workers” is de nieuwste song van de TakandBand, februari 2025.
Een lied over de zichtbare en ook onzichtbare werkers die het voor elk van ons mogelijk maken dat we leven zoals we leven.
Na Laura Comes Home en Toes alweer de derde song waar we in samenwerking met studenten van BUas Breda een songclip bij maakten.
Songtekst THE WORKERS – PIETER TAK
Johnny toils all day by emptying all the bins Pete connects the wires for the necessary grid Moon does the dishes while Ali changes tires and Sunny, Sunny she just quits
They don't talk much they don't earn much Indispensable on the edge of a knife You hardly see them I wish to hear from them the workers of our way of life
Beth mops your office floor and cleanses toilets With Mo and Larry they fix it during the nights The woman behind the register her name is Mary And Sunny, Sunny knows her rights
They want no pity they earn respect the anger of impotence is close to erect They need the money so pay them fair they work their ass off with the courage of despair
Sue minds the children so the mrs can do her thing She makes up four family homes one way or the other The trolleys of the mall are cleaned in line by Pol And Sunny, Sunny wants to be a mother
They don't talk much they don't earn much Indispensable on the edge of a knife You hardly see them I wish to hear from them the workers of our way of life You hardly see them I wish to hear from them the workers of our way of life
The workers of our way of life !

De oktober song van 2024: Clarence…nieuwste song van de TakandBand! Tip: beluister ook de podcast over ‘Clarence’…
Clarence White was een begenadigd gitarist en zou dit jaar 80 zijn geworden, als hij niet in ’73 door een dronken automobilist werd doodgereden. Getroffen door zijn miraculeuze spel op zijn Telecaster ‘StringBender’ zag Pieter hem een paar jaar daarvoor in de formatie The Byrds.
Met dank aan Ton v Oeffel voor zijn soepele telecaster spel en Ad Vermeer voor zijn muzikaal idee.
Clarence White was a gifted guitarist and would have turned 80 this year had he not been killed by a drunk driver in ’73. Struck by his miraculous playing on his Telecaster “StringBender,” Pieter saw him in the formation The Byrds a few years earlier.
Thanks to Ton v Oeffel for his smooth telecaster playing and Ad Vermeer for his musical idea.
Songtekst clarence – Pieter Tak
I must have been about seventeen strumming my first guitar when he performed on stage in town among some other stars
Hair overshadowed his eyes like the Untitled cover shows on the right that ringing twelve string and me somewhere in the front rows
With his Tele strapped up high eyes staring somewhere far while his tones pierced the sky
Clear as a bell right through the crowd his string bender calls and whines out loud clawing a crater in my heart leaving my head in clouds
He wasn't much of a talker his dark voice stuck in his beard but when he took out his acoustic some amazing picking was heard
Groaning wood in the basses Cross after beats as well speeding up the melodies that guitar was under his spell
With his Tele strapped up high eyes staring somewhere far while his tones pierced the sky
Clear as a bell right through the crowd his string bender calls and whines out loud clawing a crater in my heart leaving my head in clouds

‘Tot mijn verbazing kreeg ik een Engelstalige review over onze muziek van TakandBand in mijn mail. Met toch wel rode oortjes heb ik geluisterd wat er was samengesteld en verlevendigd met AI. Zo hebben ze het over mijn weg als muzikant en over de songs zoals die van ‘Clarence’. Toch aanbevolen deze kwartier durende podcast: ‘A Deep Dive Into TakandBand’.’ Groet, Pieter

Songtekst A Rainy Day – Pieter Tak
Will you dance with me as you did it the first time Will you dance with me when the sun rolls away Will you loosen your hair well coming the moonlight Will you dance with me and please, please stay
Will you walk with me as lovers in the sunset Will you walk with me and hold my hand Will you stay with me on a rainy day in September Will you walk with me a walk that never ends
Will you travel with me to the next horizon Will you travel with me through my songs and rhyme Will you sing with me through the lonely days in winter Will you travel with me through all seasons in time
When I was young, I lost control and trouble seemed my pal I'm older now and glad I only stumbled and fell Will you pardon me for the time that I have waisted cause we have so little time left to tell
Will you dance with me till the lights are fading Will you dance with me and hold me tight Will you embrace me when I finally will leave you Will you dance with me cause I'm afraid of the night
Will you dance with me ... Oh, will you dance with me Will you dance with me.......in the light Will you dance with me ... Oh, will you dance with me Will you dance with me.......through the night
When I was young, I lost control and trouble seemed my pal I'm older now and glad I only stumbled and fell Will you pardon me for the time that I have waisted cause we have so little time left to tell

De augustus song van 2024: The Golden Glow…nieuwste song van de TakandBand!
A ballad with the ever-recurring story of the young man in search of gold instead of happiness…
Songtekst The Golden Glow – Pieter Tak
Once there was a youngster fishing down the beach Knowing that his birdie stayed home out of reach If she could say a simple word to bring him home again Why would someone bother what would have happened then
Young fisher saw a golden glow out in the deepest caves His line was flung and net in hand he stepped into the waves The rocks made him stumble and pain did struck his knee His eyes were fixed by that gleaming whirl in the sea
Though the line was fiercely taut, his rod bent so low She didn't give him an inch, instead she pulled him, slowly Into the deep, into her depth, where she teasingly lingered And twisted his line of life round her golden fingers
I hear them mumble behind their beer, the boy was just a fool For bringing in such golden fish, you need some other tools The golden glow will appear any time you're not prepared I hope you can retell it, don't argue it wasn't fair
Once there was a youngster driving his brand new car Knowing that his lover was waiting not too far If she could say a simple word, just drive not too fast Why would you bother what would have happened at last

Enjoy your summer!
Songtekst Walking Down The Beach – Pieter Tak
Oh, baby, saw you walking down the beach I was walking right behind you, but y'was still out of reach Couldn't talk to you, cos you was clearly on the phone Now the sun is low, baby, and I'm still all alone
I was playing the guitar, baby when two butterflies caught my eye One was after the other like a piece of paper flying bye The other clearly was nipping all the honey from the bloom Why don't you come, little darling, check into my room
Like them butterflies we got to prevail Let this loner wag his tail Don't let no taxi driver take you home Don't let me be left here all alone
You drive me nuts, baby and out of my mind You can't even guess, what I 'm leaving behind Please hang up the phone and listen to me I'm the guy for the coming night, babe, can't you see
Oh, baby, saw you walking down the beach I was walking right behind you, but y'was still out of reach Couldn't talk to you, cos you was clearly on the phone Now the sun is low, baby, and I'm still all alone
Like them butterflies we got to prevail Let this loner wag his tail Don't let no taxi driver take you home Don't let me be left here all alone
Oh, baby, saw you walking down the beach I was walking right behind you, but y'was still out of reach Couldn't talk to you, cos you was clearly on the phone Now the sun is low, baby, and I'm still all alone
