Berry Sackharof-The eye



Berry Sackharof. I don't really know where to begin. Definitely one of the coolest rockers around. It seems that he really earned (deservingly) a title of respect in Israeli rock. I've always preferred him over crazy Fortis and connected with the calm (but still rocking) contra he gave to their duo. And I've always had a bit of a crush on him and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one. He seldom gives interviews so all his personality and who he really is is a bit of a mystery. He's getting older but still manages to stay at the top of the game and it sounds like he's still growing. I just love how he does his own thing and really seems to enjoy it. I wasn't crazy over this single the first time I heard it-it takes a bit time to get used to and I'm not sure it'll become a Berry classic. But it's him and makes one curious to what else will be on his upcoming album. And he's still pretty cute.

I just wanted to go to sleep
To part with the excess of day to day life
It's hard to find rest
When the eye stays open.
I've already seen mirrors that show,
Reflections on a low ceiling,
The dawn has almost rised
And only the eye greatly promises.

How she draws in,
And again she turns me on
For what it seems that you need
That you can't live without,
How she sends
A spark bright in the darkness
To what it seems you need,
that you can't live without.

I just wanted to be free,
To leave everything and let go
The party has finished already a long time,
And only the eye greatly promises.

How she draws in
And again she turns me on
For what it seems that you need
That you can't live without,
How she sends,
A spark bright in the darkness
For what it seems that you need
that you can't live without.
