"A Voice in the Wilderness" is a two-part episode from the first season (episodes 18 and 19) of the science fiction television series Babylon 5.
A Minbari comes aboard Babylon 5 and asks a guard to take him to Ambassador Delenn.
Lt. Commander Ivanova tells Commander Sinclair that there has been some seismic activity on Epsilon III, the planet above which the station orbits. She has authorized a geological team to take a shuttle down to the planet and to investigate the seismic eruptions. As the ship nears the atmosphere, a powerful beam from the planet shoots out towards space. The beam knocks out a considerable amount of power from the shuttle and blanks out the controls on the station. The shuttle has fallen towards the planet, but has enough power to maintain a low orbit, not enough to escape. Ivanova sends two Starfuries to tow the shuttle back to the station.
In the conference room, Sinclair is mediating negotiations between Ambassadors Delenn and Mollari when the incident with the shuttle occurs. Ivanova tells him that everyone is all right, but shaken. When the geological team returns to Babylon 5, Ivanova meets with the head researcher, Dr. Tasaki, to find out what happened earlier. The doctor believes that the planet is uninhabited, which was the earlier belief, and that the seismic eruptions must have triggered an automatic defense mechanism.
Babylon (𒆍𒀭𒊏𒆠 Akkadian: Bābili or Babilim; Arabic: بابل, Bābil) was a significant city in ancient Mesopotamia, in the fertile plain between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. The city was built upon the Euphrates and divided in equal parts along its left and right banks, with steep embankments to contain the river's seasonal floods. Babylon was originally a small Semitic Akkadian city dating from the period of the Akkadian Empire c. 2300 BC.
The town attained independence as part of a small city state with the rise of the First Amorite Babylonian Dynasty in 1894 BC. Claiming to be the successor of the more ancient Sumero-Akkadian city of Eridu, Babylon eclipsed Nippur as the "holy city" of Mesopotamia around the time Amorite king Hammurabi created the first short lived Babylonian Empire in the 18th century BC. Babylon grew and South Mesopotamia came to be known as Babylonia.
The empire quickly dissolved after Hammurabi's death and Babylon spent long periods under Assyrian, Kassite and Elamite domination. After being destroyed and then rebuilt by the Assyrians, Babylon became the capital of the Neo-Babylonian Empire from 609 to 539 BC. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. After the fall of the Neo-Babylonian Empire, the city came under the rules of the Achaemenid, Seleucid, Parthian, Roman and Sassanid empires.
Backyard Babies are a rock band from Nässjö, Sweden. The band was formed in 1987 and over the years they have released six studio albums and won a Swedish Grammy. The band is now located in Stockholm, Sweden.
They are largely attributed with popularizing sleaze rock in Scandinavia and Sweden. Their single "Minus Celsius" appears as a playable bonus track in Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock and "Degenerated" is available as a downloadable song for Guitar Hero World Tour.
Formed in 1987, Backyard Babies originally consisted of singer/bassist Tobbe (Tobias Fischer), guitarist Dregen, guitarist Johan Blomqvist, and drummer Peder Carlsson. They were then called Tyrant and played several live shows in their local area and recorded a rough demo. Tobbe was soon replaced by frontman Nicke Borg on vocals and guitar, and Blomqvist switched to bass. Fischer went on to be a professional photographer and web designer in Stockholm, continuing to work occasionally with his old band mates .
Babylon is the fourteenth studio album by American heavy metal band W.A.S.P., released on November 9, 2009. The album was inspired by biblical visions of "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse". The album contains covers of Deep Purple's Burn (originally recorded for W.A.S.P's previous album Dominator, but not used for unknown reasons) and Chuck Berry's Promised Land. Promised Land was also covered in 1973 by Elvis Presley, and it was Elvis' version that the band had in mind as demonstrated by the ending comment "How about one of them peanut butter & banana sandwiches."
Note: The UK chart position was recorded on the UK Independent releases chart, not the mainstream albums chart.
Чакам вече 5 минути
и от яд направо се пукам.
Радвай се, че ту те няма
в този миг до мен.
Не е гот така да лъжеш,
кавалер си джъжен да бъдеш.
Не прощавам аз измами
запомни това.
Може би ти си забравил
някой те бави.
Може би си правиш
просто с мен шега.
Може би се забавляваш,
може би ме разиграваш,
ала внимавай
ти сега.
Вече четвърт час те чакам
и от нерви с токче потракам.
Ще ти струва знай солено
този ден помни.
Ти съвсем не си единствен,
що ще дойдат само да искам.
Не прощавам аз измами,
запомни това.
Може би ти си забравил
някой те бави.
Може би си правиш
просто с мен шега.
Може би се забавляваш,
може би ме разиграваш,
ала внимавай
ти сега.
Но защо ли се нервирам
и те чакам аз не разбирам.
Стоиш ти щастливо, нявярно ти щастливо
в своя дом сега.
И защото аз съм дама,
ще ти пратя аз телеграма,
че със друг сега отивам
на купон в нощта.
Може би ти си забравил
някой те бави.
Може би си правиш
просто с мен шега.
Може би се забавляваш,
може би ме разиграваш,
ала внимавай
ти сега.
