Thai Pop/Rock Bands Thread.

Sek Loso, Bird and Carabao are 3 that come to name, Thailand has an amazing abundance of fantastic rock and pop performers. Even this young/old band hangs a good tune.

This one is Paradox - Sexy.

All other Thai mv's in Thai have previously been deleted citing rule one. Can the mods confirm it is now ok to post Mv's in Thai, as this is still here? Before they could only be posted if English subs

There for three weeks so I imagined somebody had come to their senses. Good to see Sek Loso gone anyway, outed by his ex wife Kant years ago as a hard drug user, wife beater and for abandoning his kids. last time he came on stage I went shopping.

I managed to find this for Sarisin, Unfortunately so many great songs have an unhappy ending

 

[Thaidup]

This is a Thai rock band singing in English(personally I prefer the native tongue)

 

[Thaidup]

Now I must admit that if not for Sarisin, I would have just thought of this as a nice sounding love song, but now being able to understand/see the words makes the song so much better.

Maybe skipping on the edges of the rules here, but anyone from the 80's genre of music knows that this song was always sung in French and never English. Was nice to come across a Thailand version though that is sung in the original form by the original artists with just a hint of Thailand delight as backups. Have included a verse by verse translation just incase anyone wants to read it.

 

[Verse 1]
Wham! Bam! My cat, Splash
Is rolling around on my bed
He swallowed his tongue as he drank all my whisky
As for me, I've hardly slept, I feel empty and reprimanded
I had to sleep in the gutter
Where I had a flash of inspiration
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
In four colours

[Verse 2]
OK, let's go! One morning
A babe came round to my house
She looked like a cellophane doll with curly hair
She was wearing a plaster and had a hangover
She drank my beer in a large rubber glass
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Like an Indian in their igloo

[Chorus]
It's all working out for me, it's all working out for me
It's all working out for me, me, me, me, me
It's all working out for me
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
It's all working out for me

 

 

[Verse 3]
OK, let's go! That babe was such a bitch
What a vibration!
Coming on the doormat
Filed down, ruined, empty, but happy
"You are the King of the Divan!"
She says to me in passing
I am the King of the Divan

[Chorus]
It's all working out for me, it's all working out for me
It's all working out for me, me, me, me, me
It's all working out for me
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
It's all working out for me

[Verse 4]
OK, let's go! Mind your own, keep your nose out
Don't harm my planet
Today's not the day the sky will fall down around my ears
Or that I will have to go without a drink
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
It's all working out for me

[Verse 4]
OK, let's go! my baby upped and left
She walked out on me, it's a shitty situation
She broke everything, the sink, the bar
And she left me all alone
Like a total jerk
Stuck here faced with the aftermath

 

 

[Chorus]
It's all working out for me, it's all working out for me
It's all working out for me, me, me, me, me
It's all working out for me
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
It's all working out for me
It's all working out for me, it's all working out for me
It's all working out for me, me, me, me, me
It's all working out for me

Thai classic folk is heard in most markets and on village loudspeakers, this one is played every now and again at my place, took me ages to find out the name of it then try to translate to English so I could find it on YT.

Here is a full English version.
