White Sails - Demis Roussos 1977 With many thanks to my friend shagrama, who wrote the lyric:
White sails... White sails...
Mast (More)With many thanks to my friend shagrama, who wrote the lyric:
White sails... White sails...
Mast runing high,
run and knock in every door
tell the women not to cry...
Here they come...
I can see most everyone,
In the early morning sun
I can hear the sing from men.
See how the come
trough the wind and the ocean waves...
See how they stand so mighty.
One hundred days
Since they went for beyond the sea
Leaving us in empty anxiety...
How many tears did we cried
Waiting for this day,
In our dark imagination...
How many hopes of return do they now fulfilled
In this happy celebration.
White sails... White sails...
Mast runing high,
run and knock in every door
tell the women not to cry...
Here they come...
I can see most everyone,
In the early morning sun
I can hear the sing from men.
In every churchs bell of echo in every home...
Spread the good news around you.
Tell everyone that the men have at last return...
And that every wish has come true.
How many days did we pray for each one of them
In our only expectation...
How many hopes of return do they now fulfilled
In this happy celebration.
White sails... White sails...
Mast runing high,
run and knock in every door
tell the women not to cry...
Here they come...
I can see most everyone,
In the early morning sun
I can hear the sing from men.
When somebody says, Demis Roussos,to me, it means: White sails. To me, it's his best song, Thank you Demis, for all the joy you brought to me, Thank you.
Artemios (Demis) Ventouris Roussos (born June 15, 1946) is a Greek singer.He was born in Egypt.He came to a wider audience in 1968 when he joined progressive rock band Aphrodite's Child, initially as singer but later also playing bass guitar. In 1970 the two released Sex Power (although the album has also been disputably credited to Aphrodite's Child), also recording the 1977 album Magic together. Their most successful collaboration was Race to the End, a vocal adaptation of the musical theme from the Oscar winning film Chariots of Fire, and also sung in Spanish as "Tu Libertad", whilst Roussos also appeared as a guest on the soundtrack to Blade Runner (1982).His solo career peaked in the 1970s with several hit albums. His single, "Forever and Ever", topped the charts in several countries in 1973. Other hits were "My Friend the Wind", "My Reason", "Velvet Mornings", "Goodbye, My Love, Goodbye", "Someday" and "Lovely Lady of Arcadia".
