Waiting For The Night

I'm waiting for the night to fall

I know that it will save us all

When everything's dark

Keeps us from the stark reality

I'm waiting for the night to fall

When everything is bearable

And there in the still

All that you feel

Is tranquility


There is a star in the sky

Guiding my way with its light

And in the glow of the moon

Know my deliverance will come soon


There is a sound in the calm

Someone is coming to harm

I press my hands to my ears

It's easier here just to forget fear


And when I squinted

The world seemed rose-tinted

And angels appeared to descend

To my surprise

With half-closed eyes

Things looked even better

Than when they were opened


Been waiting for the night to fall

I knew that it would save us all

Now everything's dark

Keeps us from the stark reality

Been waiting for the night to fall

Now everything is bearable

And here in the still

All that you feel

Is tranquility

She dashed by me in painted on jeans
And all heads turned 'cause she was the dream
In the blink of an eye I knew her number and her name, yeah
Ah she said I was the tiger she wanted to tame
Caribbean Queen
Now we're sharing the same dream
And our hearts they beat as one
No more love on the run
I lose my cool when she steps in the room
And I get so excited just from her perfume
Electric eyes that you can't ignore
And passion burns you like never before
I was in search of a good time
Just running my game
Love was the furthest
Furthest from my mind
Caribbean Queen
Now we're sharing the same dream
And our hearts they beat as one
No more love on the run
Caribbean Queen
Now we're sharing the same dream
And our hearts they beat as one
No more love on the run
Caribbean Queen
Now we're sharing the same dream
And our hearts they beat as one
No more love on the run
Caribbean Queen
Now we're sharing the same dream
And our hearts they beat as one
No more love on the run
Caribbean Queen
Now we're sharing the same dream
And our hearts they beat as one
No more love on the run

Preface to 1998 Edition
Douglas Kellner
Herbert Marcuse’s Eros and Civilization (EC) provides an exciting and
compelling articulation of his perspectives on contemporary civilization,
domination, and liberation. Written at the height of McCarthyism in the 1950s,
Marcuse’s epic of emancipation sketches out his vision of a free and non￾repressive civilization during a historical epoch characterized by social repression
and attacks on radical thought. His emphasis on liberation, play, love, and eros
anticipated the ethos of the 1960s counterculture which in turn made him a guru
of radical thought. In addition, the text provides an extremely radical critique of
contemporary civilization which was to make Marcuse a darling of the New Left
and one of the most influential thinkers of his epoch.
From the perspective of critical social theory, Marcuse reconstructs Freudian
and Marxian theories in order to develop a critical theory of contemporary
society, combined with visions of a non-repressive society which draws on Marx,
Freud, utopian socialism, German idealism, and various poets and philosophers.
In this text, Marcuse’s project went well beyond classical Marxism to envisage
new possibilities for liberation in an era when revolutionary action and even
critical thinking were threatened by oppressive social forces and conformist
ideologies. In his resolutely utopian work, Marcuse articulates the vision of
human emancipation that was to distinguish his version of critical theory.
Whereas Adorno, Horkheimer, and most other Institute members were reluctant
to develop any detailed utopian concepts, or outlines, of an alternative society,
Marcuse attempted to sketch out Utopian alternatives to the present way of life.

There seems to be a serious disconnect between your interest in Marcuse (not a theist, and not violent) and your fascination with a "Spanish Inquisition" style campaign of threats of violence towards atheists...

Indeed, who are you to say there is no ETERNAL TRUTH.

There is. Sizzling bacon.

[Svartalf]

You know he'll interpret that as the smell of heretics burning at the stake, right?

Oh great Profit of Doom, lead us not astray
We wish, we hope, we pray
I composed this ditty, as you're so pretty
Don't let that nasty Depeche Mode take us away!

The video for "Waiting for the Night" is well made. In me, it invokes images of the human anatomy. I see chromosomes in the rain drops falling from the sky, I see images like from a chest MRI when the raindrops hit the water. And at the end you can see cell clusters swimming in a liquid. Maybe it is meant to show the perception an embryo has in the womb. The state of being an embryo being the state described by the persona in the lyrics that they want to return to.

Definitely a Millenialist and a violent revolutionary - at least on and off paper. Remember, what he really thought about the situation of late capitalism - the actual not the potential! - and the tactics to get rid of it would.get him arrested.

When the great queen sees herself conquered,
she will show an excess of masculine courage.
Naked, on horseback, she will pass over the river
pursued by the sword: she will have outraged her faith
