Total Eclipse performed by Timur chords
Start Jamming...
We were asked to perform at the America's Got Talent.
Excuse [Bm] me?
[G] I'm sorry?
[N] What?
You don't think they're ready for us?
Oh, [C#] well.
All right, then.
[Cm] We'll do Kazakhstan Got [N] Talent.
You know, they just published a condom-ass travel magazine, and they said
75 things that came out, the best things that came out of Kazakhstan.
And I'm one of those things.
Obviously, we didn't win the competition, America's Got Talent.
The kids that, um, they progressed.
We didn't.
But we sang a song by, again, super talented, impressive, with a great career songwriter,
Christian Hoffman, who actually wrote the song Total Eclipse, which we're about to sing,
for Klaus Nomi.
Klaus [Cm] Nomi was this, [C#] again, [C] crazy German [N] countertenor who absorbed a lot of opera
while working as an usher in German opera houses.
And then he came to America, lived in New York.
Christian started writing songs for him.
Then he becomes famous.
And so he was fantastic, too, of course.
And Christian went and played with us as well.
We decided, why not to do the whole version of the song, Total Eclipse?
And it's so profound for our day, because it talks about chaos, environmental catastrophes,
the world is going to hell in a handbag.
It's a co-operative expression I learned.
So I thought I'll throw it in.
I'm glad you responded to it.
Everybody's like, yeah, yeah, I know.
A handbasket.
[G] [N]
I'd like to see that handbasket.
All right.
Well, that reminds me, speaking of hell, the British guy in America's Got Talent,
who I don't remember the life of, because I know he's British,
but he said he has never been to hell.
And after hearing our performance, he thinks he has.
We were thrilled.
But I'm hearing sounds.
All right, so Total Eclipse, and we're going to perform in entirety, and it's written by Christian.
[D]
[G]
[C#] [Dm]
[A] [Gm] The planet's so hot.
[G] Hot as a [Dm] holocaust.
[F] Blow up everything's [C] gonna go up.
Even if [A#] you don't show up.
In your [Am] shimmy's [Dm] lacoste.
The hell is [Gm] this?
Oh, [C]
[F] God.
Oh, God.
Oh, [Dm] [Gm] God.
[C] Oh, God. Oh, God.
Lift up your lips [G] and you're done
[Dm] [D] All out, nobody's [A] left to roll out
If someone [Gm] called we're all out
Turning into [Dm]
french fries
[F] Lost dance, let the [C] entire cast dance
Let's do this [A#] man-porn club dance
As we get [A] out of mind
[Dm] Here's [Gm] just how they [G] [C] treat me
[F] Hold the sun
[C] [Dm] Oh, come, don't cry
[Gm]
[G] [C] Where are you
R [Dm]
[A] [B].I.P.
[C] [N]
[G] Hey [Bm] [C]
what's [Am] that?
[N]
Another meteor
I love [A] Valkyrie
[Dm]
The [Gm] [C]
[F] sun
[Dm]
Oh, come, don't cry
[Gm] [G] [C]
Where are you
[F] And your flower
[Dm]
[Gm] [C]
[F] [D]
[Dm] [Gm] [C] The burning
[Dm] [G]
[A] [C] [C#] [Dm] [D] wood.
[Gm]
[N]
Ah, fantastic dancers.
That was a surprise, right?
That was a surprise for everyone, and America's Got Talent,
