Leslie Clio - I Couldn't Care Less

"Go cross me off your list
No use to be a part of a world that don't exist
I'm giving up the fight
I'm never gettin' paid but somewhere there's a light

I couldn't care less
'Bout sunny or shine
I couldn't care less
What broke me this time
I couldn't care less
That's why I'm drummin' it out
I couldn't care less
That's all I care about"

Yard Act - 100% Endurance

It's all so pointless
It is and that's beautiful, l find it humbling, sincerely
And when you're gone
It brings me peace of mind to know that this will all just carry on
...

It's all so pointless, ah, but it's not though is it?
It's really real and when you feel it, you can really feel it
Grab somebody that you love
Grab anyone who needs to hear it
And shake 'em by the shoulders, scream in their face"

Bruce Hornsby & The Range - Look Out Any Window

"There's a man working in a field
Sees the rain and it's burning
He's saying this can't be real
As he sees the color
Of the fields turning

Far away, the men too busy
Getting rich to care
Close their eyes and
Let it all out into the air
Hoping nobody else would care

Look out any window
Look out any open door
Look out any window
To see what's going on
In the air around you"

Suzanne Vega - Tom's Diner

"Oh, this rain, it will continue
Through the morning as I'm listening
To the bells of the cathedral
I am thinking of your voice
And of the midnight picnic once upon a time
Before the rain began...
And I finish up my coffee
And it's time to catch the train"

Elen - Liegen ist Frieden

"Und wenn die Welt heut vor die Hunde geht
Und kein Stein mehr auf dem anderen steht
An mir kann es nicht liegen
Denn ich bin liegen geblieben

Denn ich will nicht
Ich will lieber hier liegen
Für immer hier liegen
Denn Liegen ist Frieden
Mein Geschenk an die Welt
Ich will lieber hier liegen
Für immer hier liegen
Denn Liegen ist Frieden"

Norah Jones covering Chris Cornell - Black Hole Sun

In my eyes, indisposed
In disguises no one knows
Hides the face, lies the snake
In the sun in my disgrace
Boiling heat, summer stench
'Neath the black, the sky looks dead
Call my name through the cream
And I'll hear you scream again

Black hole sun, won't you come
And wash away the rain?
Black hole sun, won't you come?
Won't you come? Won't you come?

Jamiroquai - Cosmic Girl

"I must've died and gone to heaven
'Cause it was a quarter past eleven
On a Saturday in 1999
Right across from where I'm standing
It was clear that she was from another time
Like some baby Barbarella
With the stars as her umbrella
She asked me if I'd like to magnetise
Do I have to go star-trekking
'Cause it's you I should be checking
So she laserbeamed me with her cosmic eyes"

Versteckte die Katholische Kirche Missbrauchstäter im Ausland?

Ein Priester soll fünf Mädchen missbraucht haben. Statt die Tat aufzuklären, half ihm die Katholische Kirche, sich nach Südamerika abzusetzen - bis die Tat verjährt war. Kein Einzelfall, wie ARD-Recherchen zeigen.
