There's one dutch (flemish) song by Norbert (written by Will Tura) of
which I'd love to have the lyrics.
Thanks

"Mary Ann with the shaky hands,
What she does to a man... those shaky hands."
(...Something like that, by The WHO.) Also,
"Hey, Mary Ann, what's your game, now, can anybody play?"
Also,
"All day, all night, Miss Mary Ann. Down by the sea side, sifting
sand. All the little children love Mary Ann. Down by the sea side
sifting sand."
Anybody else know the rest of the lyrics to these?

There's a Sisters of Mercy song on the LP First and Last and Always, called
"Marian". I can't remember the words, though, I'm afraid.

There's a Leonard Cohen song called So Long, Marianne. You
can find it with a web search on Leonard Cohen lyrics. There's
also a Leonard Cohen song called Sisters of Mercy, interestingly
enough.

Well, there's an oldie calypso (Belefonte?) called Marianne (Mary Ann?)
There's also Boston "More Than A Feeling" with Marianne walking away.

Well, there's Marian, by The Sisters Of Mercy. (It's on the album First And
Last And Always, which is >highly< recommended :) )
MARIAN (version)
In a sea of faces, in a sea of doubt
In this cruel place your voice above the maelstrom
In the wake of the ship of fools I'm falling further down
If you can see me, Marian, reach out and take me home.....
CHORUS
I hear you calling Marian
Across the water, across the wave
I hear you calling Marian
Can you hear me calling you to
Save me, save me, save me from the
Grave...
Marian
Marian, there's a weight above me
And the pressure is all too strong
To breathe deep
Breathe long and hard
To take the water down and go to sleep
To sink still further
Beneath the fatal wave
Marian I think I'm drowning
This sea is killing me
CHORUS
Was ich kann und was ich konnte (What I can do and what I could do)
Weiss ich gar nicht mehr (I just don't know anymore)
Gib mir wieder etwas schones (Give me something beautiful again)
Zieh mich aus dem meer (Drag me from the sea)
Ich hore dich rufen Marian (I hear you calling Marian)
Kannst du mich schreien horen (Can you hear me calling?)
Ich bin hier allien (I am here alone)
Ich hore dich rufen Marian (I hear you calling Marian)
Ohne diene hilfe verliere ich mich in diessem ort(Without your help I am lost
in this place)
CHORUS(repeat Marian til end)

Since we are hitting back to the oldies...
Didnt "Marrianne" appear in the Blue Oyster Cult cult song REAPER?

You mean "Don't Fear the Reaper"? I don't think so.

hiya steve!
thanks for the DM reference! i cannot b/lieve i spazzed tht tune!
actually, tho, "marianne" was the focal point of the action in DFTR,
it is she who is b/g lured into suicide....
.....i remember b4 B0C concerts out on LI, 'missionaries' would drive
in from jersey and delaware to hand out 'contra-suicide-propaganda'
b00gi.4.ever
does "Carrie-Anne" by the Hollies apply?
` Marrianne ' by Marshall Crenshaw circa 1981
` " " ' by Burl Ives / 1957
` " " ' by Terry Gilkyson 1957

I'm sure someone's mentioned Leonard Cohen's "So Long Marianne," but
just in case no one has yet....
