Week Seventy-Three: Synthpop - Part Deux - Cetu Javu - "Have In Mind" - Southern Lands

This song has always been one of my favorite dance tunes. I heard it almost weekly when The Wall still hosted its Synthpop night on Wednesdays in Deep Ellum around 2000 and 2001. I would also hear it on occasion at The Church at The Lizard Lounge. I had a really difficult time locating a copy of this CD, but I finally found it at Tower Records in Oak Lawn before it closed down... I really liked that place. I so rarely run into people who know of Cetu Javu or any of their songs; so if you are familiar with them, then pat yourself on the back... and let's be friends!!! ;-D

I will also include another favorite called "Situations"...

Weak grows your heart, patiently

Before the tragedy, have in mind

Look about the countryside

Can't perceive anything to hide

Nobody knows what's going on

Living beings, where have you gone?

Rivers from the mountainside

Become polluted, don't try to deny

Remember the times when fish were alive

And realize what you need in life

Weak grows your heart, patiently

Before the tragedy, have in mind

Weak grows your heart, patiently

Before the tragedy, have in mind

Doesn't matter what you feel

As long as the others make a great deal

Don't wait so long in offer assistance

And don't give up with your existence

Step by step, we thus get nearer

But our fair must be clearer

When the sun will not rise

We have lost our paradise

Weak, grows your heart, patiently

Before the tragedy, have in mind

Weak, grows your heart, patiently

Before the tragedy, have in mind

Look around you

Is there anything you need?

If you follow our way

You'll pass one day

Therefore before the tragedy occurs

Have in mind, and don't forget

Weak, grows your heart, patiently

Before the tragedy, have in mind

Weak, grows your heart, patiently

Before the tragedy, have in mind
