Shows

IL VUOTO DEI COLORI (Emptiness of the colours)


Vedi, io sono ancora in piedi (you see, I still stand up)

nonostante quell'idea che hai di me (although the idea you have about me)

Ridi, ma il vuoto dei colori (you laugh, but the emptiness of the colours)

dai tuoi occhi come un'ombra scivola (from you eyes like a shadow slides out)


Non è poi difficile andar via (It's not so hard to go away)

Sempre meglio che subire un'idea (always better than to suffer an idea)

Credevo nelle favole, pensavo che la tua realtà (I believed in fairy tales, I thought that your reality)

Fosse più dolce della fantasia (was even sweeter than fantasy)


Forse, ora sono più forte (Maybe I'm now stronger)

Sulla pelle la tua lingua brucia ancora (on my skin your tongue still burns )

Tremo al solo pensiero (I tremble only if I think)

che potevo darti tutta l'energia (that I could give you all my energy)


Io mi riprendo la vita mia (I take back my life)

Ti lascio la tua lucida follia (I leave you with your clear insanity)

Più di una volta non si può morire dentro l'anima (more than once we can't die inside our soul)

Oggi la guerra la vinco io (today I win the war)


Le mie mani spezzano la tua magia (my hands break your magic)

Mi guardi impotente mentre vado via (you watch me powerless while I go away)

il tuo potere è logoro, ti aspetta dietro l'angolo (your power is well-worn, behind the corner is waiting 4 you)

la tua solitudine (your loneliness)


Oggi mi riprendo la vita mia (today I take back my life)

Ti lascio la tua stupida euforia (I leave you with your stupid euphoria)

Più di una volta non si può morire dentro l'anima (more than once we can't die inside our soul)

Oggi la guerra la vinco io (today I win the war)


Ridi, ma il vuoto dei colori (you laugh, but the emptiness of the colours)

dai tuoi occhi come un'ombra scivola (from your eyes like a shadow slides out )


Scivola, scivola... (slides out, slides out...)



THE BLACK JACK'S PROJECT

We are in a new phase of our career, we feel full of energies and highly motivated and it seems the right moment to tell you what we want to realize during our wonderful journey on SellaBand.

1 - Mission:

We want to become a pro band! We have a dream, we want to live with our own music and have success . Our music is our passion and we want to spread out all over the world!

2 - Targets:

We want to reach 50K on SellaBand. This is our first goal and we think we have the qualities to record a great CD. The CD will be used to pay back our believers and it will be the beginning for our career in pro market.

We want to make as many gigs as possible. We are a live band and the stage gives us trembles on our back. We want to perform in Italy and in Europe (UK and Holland for first)  and we’re looking for other artists to organize a big event.

3 - Points of strength:

We are ready to take chances and we are sure to have the right mix of strength, passion and maturity to keep this project alive until we have become successful.

We are a real band. Four friends who act like a single man, with one dream to realize and one goal to reach.

We believe in our music. We have 6 new songs waiting to be recorded, both in Italian and English and we’re are in a very creative period. Our style is becoming more mature and we’re adding new sonorities to get a modern sound blended with classic rock groove. The first song of the new course will be online during January.

We have never stopped to grow. We still have not exploded on SellaBand, but we have showed a continuity like few other artists. We know we have a different way to reach the 50K and we’ll be the first band to reach that goal with an understatement style.

4 - What we’re doing:

We have bought a new studio. After a hard work we have the place where to spread out all our energies, a place where to play loud and where to record all the new songs. We’re very proud of that and it’s the point where all begins.

We are playing a lot. With the entrance of the new drummer in the band we have to built all our repertory and to add the new material. Now we play at least 4 times per week and we’re sure that in 2 months we will be ready to perform on stage with at least 15 songs.

We are contacting independent labels, radios, TVs, specialized print, internet networks and all the music operators who can offer us a chance to spread our music and to make us known. When our repertory will be almost ready we’ll contact clubs  and we’ll participate to musical contests and all kind of events  where to perform. Next spring/summer we’re sure to begin a season full of live shows.

5 - Our believers

Our believers are our friends, the special persons who make our dream possible.  We look forward to pay back all the support received and we won’t forget all what our believers are doing for us. We want to have success also for our believers and we won’t go away till we have reached our goal.

This project is our reason of life and we express our deepest gratitude to all the special persons who believe we can realize that....THANK YOU!!!

Oct 06 2008 19:50 CET Derek Lammers - New job :D - starting 1st october

Hey!
Thanks, guys :) i just started last wednesday, and i'm really glad to be able to get to work again.
The last 2 months have been the laziest, and longest since my last summerholiday (and that was in 2006).

Well, im off again, because there is plenty of things to be done before i'm fully active on SAB again. Hopefully i will be back at the end of this month.

Have a great week! And i wish you all the best,
Derek

Great Italian BAND !!!

 

 

Jurjen: Team Sunshine 28.09.08 17

In the late 70s I was just a baby, but Black Jack convinced me that these times were great. Again, state of art music... when you have the money... buy some (more) parts.

Laurent Caris 01.09.08 49

'Emozione Fragile' is a beautifull song that feels like an unborn child waiting to be born in the full sunlight where it can scream it's voice, emotions and desire for complete love... as if from bearth on you knew who belongs at your side, who can answer all the desires of your heart... and now you find her you wonder why she doesn't hear your heart calling... Beautifullll! Black Jacks other new song 'Wait for rain' merges pop, rock and dance elements into a new fresh sound that tastes like an appetizer of sweet melon and salty meat, love and tears, the best of both worlds! One thing that strikes me every time is the fact that I seem to get in trance when I listen to Black Jacks tracks, no drugs, just music, sung and played with heart and soul! This is true rockmusic, the real thing, very hard to find these days...

'Wonderfull desease' recalls vibes of 'Stairway to heaven' from Led Zeppelin and then turns into wonderfull harmony vocals, with these seducing mideavel flute tunes you cannot resist!
While listening you also can hear vibes of The Scorpions and Uriah Heep; this kind of music can really move all of your senses!

Black Jack can rock you easilly with their supersoun d and heavenly voices like their songs 'Be lonely' and 'Falling' that combine the spirit of Queen and Kansas!

'Show me the way' is a great rock ballad just like 'The Scorpions' made some. So I hope Black Jack will keep on making this kind of emotional rockmusic that can steal your heart away!
Anyway, Black Jack has everything to make it and they really are a band to believe in! So give them a chance, listen, and when you get moved, don't doubt and buy some parts today!
