    Brought my first marc bolan record in 1968, (debora), and now 56 years later. Im still listening to the great marc bolan. Thanks for so much great music. Metal guru, the epitome of the glam rock sound !!

    Эквиритмический перевод песни “Metal Guru” британской группы T.Rex с альбома "The Slider" (1972).
    С 20 мая 1972 года песня возглавляла британский чарт "UK Singles Chart" в течение 4 недель.
    Это четвёртый и последний хит группы, возглавлявший британский чарт. Марк Болан так прокомментировал содержание песни:
    "Это песня о празднике жизни. Я соотношу "Металлического гуру" со всеми богами. Я верю в Бога, но у меня нет религии. "Металлический гуру" - это нечто особенное, это, пожалуй, Божество. Я думал, каким Бог должен быть, он должен быть одиноким без телефона. Я больше не отвечаю по телефону. У меня есть номера, по которым люди мне звонят в определённое время."
    МЕДНЫЙ ГУРУ
    (перевод Евгения Соловьева)
    Медный Гуру, это ты,
    Медный Гуру, это ты
    Помещён
    На бронированный трон? О, да!
    Медный Гуру, правда ты,
    Медный Гуру, правда ты
    Одинок,
    А телефон далёк? О, да!
    Медный Гуру, мог бы ты,
    Медный Гуру, мог бы ты
    Мою девчонку мне привезти?
    Пусть дика,
    Как рок-н-ролла дитя. О, да!
    Медный Гуру, может, он
    Всего лишь саблезубый в серебре сон?
    Буду чист*,
    Знай, скверны пропагандист. О, да!
    Медный Гуру, это ты?
    Медный Гуру, это ты?
    Ла ла ла ла
    Ла ла ла ла
    Ла-ла-ла-ла
    Медный Гуру, мог бы ты,
    Медный Гуру, мог бы ты
    Мою девчонку мне привезти?
    Пусть дика,
    Как рок-н-ролла дитя. О, да!
    Медный Гуру, правда ли,
    Медный Гуру, правда ли
    Одинок,
    А телефон далёк? О, да!
    Медный Гуру, мог бы ты,
    Медный Гуру, мог бы ты
    Мою девчонку мне привезти?
    Пусть дика,
    Как рок-н-ролла дитя. О, да!
    Медный Гуру, это ты?
    Медный Гуру, это ты? Да, да, да
    Медный Гуру, это ты? Да, да, да
    Медный Гуру, это ты? Да, да, да...

    The Warrior

    His spirit came his spirit has gone
    But with Marc Bolan, you can still Get It On
    T.rex they came and hit the scene
    You should have heard, those girls scream

    With his corkscrew hair and people so fair
    He’d strut on the stage without worry or care
    He knew just how to get into your mind
    He’d bump and grind he was one of a kind
    He’d caress you with his Persian glove
    As he sang those words of hot Hot Love
    He’d Ride A White Swan over Crimson Moon
    Tickle your fancy with Venus Loon

    Gave all he got, he gave it to you
    Rock On, Hang Ups, and Cadilac too
    All knew who was, was the Main man
    With Rip Off, Slider, and Tanx in a can

    Bill Legend, Steve Currie, Mickey Finn
    Bumping and grinding from deep within
    Satin jacket trousers, glitter under the eyes
    I Love To Boogie with screams and cries

    His B sides were good, as good as the A’s
    Jeepster was part of the Glam Rock phase
    Went to New York City he was The Groover
    With Telegram Sam Marc was a mover

    To some, it came as no great surprise
    How this 20th Century Boy he did rise
    Electric Warrior L.P. was pure bliss
    Marc Bolan the Warrior we do miss.

      @@edwardbeaini1923 The thing with today's music is not so much the talent which is still there, it's just over produced because you can now have 200+ tracks on a tune that is all programmed to fall exactly on the beat, so it's lost it's human feel. When this song was written most bands were limited to 8 tracks which were recorded on tape. Only giant bands could afford the techs required to expand on 8 tracks and maybe get 12 -24 tracks.

    pigsbishop99. See, I’ve been a huge, huge fan from 1970 to 1973/74. First , around 1974 a serious decline had begun respectively was all underway. He faced huge losses then and one of the losses was me ;). You know? A line of cocain and a bottle of whiskey ( cheers) per day. Ever more “glam”, i.e. cross dressing while the music getting poorer, sadly enough. He massively lost reputation in the last 3 to 4 years. And secondly, from the very beginning there were lots of T.Rex/Bolan “ haters” all around, in music industry, in the press and among young people. It wasn’t a good idea to wear a Bolan T-shirt in those days (as I did sometimes)from 1970/ 71onwards. It was a play with y o u r reputation in your peer group then. Don’t know how old you are but I think most witnesses of time will agree. Best regards and Rock on:
