S’il existe une « école de Canterbury », alors ce fut assurément une école buissonnière. Un vaste champ de liberté sur lequel s’est élevé une musique joyeusement perméable, candide et savante à la fois, aux stimulations free-jazz et à la sensibilité pop. Cette mouvance a franchi les frontières des pays et du temps. Quelques morceaux Français sur cette playlists le montrent .

Pye’s June Thing lyrics

Take a sip from my magic cup
And then time pass you by
You might as well be with me
Cause there’s luck in your eye
&quotShall I not be your friend”
I heard her say so peacefully
And then smile away the time
And tings to me

What with the mood I’m in
I don’t know, I dunno
I never was a strength of mind
And there’s side, yes I know
&quotCome on in, come on” she said
I’ve got to go, and I go fast
There’s a time to be hend by all
But it won’t last

Come with me, tell no lie
Or you won’t see another day
You’ll be the kind of yesteryear
And that’s the way you will stay
&quotGive me fire”, I cried out loud
&quotGive it to me all the time”
What I need no asking twice
Is to words I couldn’t find

I could hardly believe my eyes
When I saw her standing here
She had flowered herself in green
And had diamonds in her hair
Was it real or was it just a dream
That was to fade away from me?
And I saw new —– I don’t need

The Love in your eyes

In dreams of you I wish a song on everyone
A gift of love to fill your eyes, to fill your eyes
And if I turn your head awhile, my heart will sing
Thunder songs of love to make you smile

I’ve travelled far in search of things I didn’t know
I could have found as well at home as in the skies
There’s so much time misspent in dreams of wealth and fame
When all you need is love in your eye

Take a cup of newfound wealth
Drink it down and do yourself
Let your feelings tell you why
Have no fear for lonely days
Mind in hand you’ll find a way
You must believe me till you’ve tried

Come the day
Insomuch as we can tell
A shadow clears anew before me
Sing your song
And through our needs we’ll tag along
Collecting thoughts for all the others
