Small things

Hoy tenemos una canción armoniosa, de esas que el cuerpo te pide escuchar. El grupo, una maravilla que no debeis dejar pasar, yo no lo he hecho desde que lo conocí :)





There’s one thing that I’ve noticed
out of all the things I’ve seen
it’s that you can leave a footprint
in a place you’ve never been
and there’s barely time to look around
before you have to leave
and a mark upon the skin
is not enough to make you bleed

If there’s one thing that I’m keeping
out of all the things I’ve found
it’s that the best way to be heard sometimes
is not to make a sound
and the things we want the most
fetch not a penny nor a pound
and all it takes to find your feet
is just to stand your ground

If there’s one thing that I’m sure of
out of all the things I know
it’s that you can keep on going fast
I’ll still be going slow
and falling’s not that hard
when you’re starting out so low
and drowning’s not that bad
if you breathe and just let go
breathe and just let go…

The wasted and the used things
the broken and abused things
all these small things
the treasured and the sacred things
the lost and the forsaken things
all these small things

The flower of carnage

Siempre he dicho que uno de los aspectos que más cuida, y que más me gustan, Tarantino de sus películas es la banda sonora. Esta canción pertenece a la película Kill Bill, y probablemente tarde en olvidarla mucho mucho tiempo, si es que lo hago :)

Translation: The Flower of Carnage

Begrieving snow falls in the dead morning
Stray dog's howls and the footsteops of Geta pierce the air
I walk with the weight of the Milky Way on my shoulders
But an umbrella that holds onto the darkness is all there is.
I'm a woman who walks at the brink of life and death
Who's emptied my tears many moons ago.
All the compassion tears and dreams
The snowy nights and tomorrow hold no meaning
I've immersed my body in the river of venegance
And thrown away my womanhood many moons ago
On the behalf of heaven, they're our soldiers, the loyal, invincible and brave.
Now it's time for them to leave the country of their
Parents their hearts buoyed by encouraging voices.
They are solemnly resolved not to return alive, without victory.
Here at home, the citizens wait for you.
In foreign lands, the brave troops
Instead of kindness from someone
I do not care about
I rather prefer selifshness from you my beloved.
Oh, it the world a dream or an illusion?
I am all alone in jail.

Peacemaker

Hoy volvemos a tener música animada. Sigue siendo inevitable para animar los primeros despertares del curso. Una de mis canciones favoritas de Green Day, aunque la verdad es que las tienen a montones!





Well, I've got a fever
A non-believer
I'm in a state of grace
For I am the Caesar
I'm gonna seize the day
Well, call of the banshee hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey
As God as my witness
The infidels are gonna pay

Well, call the assassin
The orgasm
A spasm of love and hate
For what will divide us?
The righteous and the meek
Well, call of the wild hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey
Death to the girl at the end of the serenade

Vendetta, sweet vendetta
This Beretta of the night
This fire and the desire
Shots ringing out on a holy parasite

I am a killjoy from Detroit
I drink from a well of rage
I feed off the weakness with all my love
Call up the captain hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey
Death to the lover that you were dreaming of

This is a stand off
A Molotov cocktail's
On the house
You thought I was a write off
You better think again
Call the peacemaker hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey
I'm gonna send you back to the place where it all began

Vendetta, sweet vendetta
This Beretta of the night
This fire and the desire
Shots ringing out on a holy parasite

Well now the caretaker's the undertaker
So I'm gonna go out and get the peacemaker
This is the neo St. Valentines Massacre
Well call up the Gaza hey hey
hey hey hey hey hey
Death to the ones at the end of the serenade
Well, death to the ones at the end of the serenade
Well, death to the ones at the end of the serenade
Well, death to the ones at the end of the serenade

Señor kioskero

Hoy volvemos a tener un tema del útimo disco de Pereza. La verdad es que cuesta escoger una única canción pero esta es bastante animada, cosa que hace falta en el primer día de trabajo!





Hola señor kioskero, vengo en busca de su dinero.
Ponga las manos arriba, y présteme mucha atención.

Mi familia no tiene trabajo, y yo trabajar no quiero.
Por eso ponga el dinero en esta bolsa por favor.

Señor kioskero!
Yo no vine a hacerle daño, sólo que antes de irme primero
quiero llevarme ése vídeo, que todo éste asalto grabó.
Y si algún día puedo y quiero,y a la vida tengo mucha suerte.
Prometo que este dinero, voy a venirsélo a traer.

Señor kioskero,
yo trabajar no quiero (x3).

You got me

Hoy tenemos una de esas canciones R&B que tanto me gustan. Tranquila, sosegada pero con ritmo y tono. Eso sin contar la voz de Erykah Badu, que es una pasada!





[Chorus: Erykah Badu (repeat 2X)]

If you were worried 'bout where
I been or who I saw or
what club I went to with my homies
baby don't worry you know that you got me

[Black Thought]
Somebody told me that this planet was small
we use to live in the same building on the same floor
and never met before
until I'm overseas on tour
and peep this ethiopian queen from philly
taking classes abroad
she studying film and photo flash focus record
said she workin on a flick and
could my click do the score
she said she loved my show in paris
at Elysee Montmartre
and that I stepped off the stage
and took a piece of her heart
we knew from the start that
things fall apart, intentions shatter
she like that shit don't matter
when I get home get at her
through letter, phone, whatever
let's link, let's get together
shit you think not, think the Thought went home and forgot
time passed, we back in philly now she up in my spa
tellin me the things I'm tellin her is makin her hot
startin buildin with her constantly round the clock
now she in my world like hip-hop
and keep tellin me

[Chorus]

[Black Thought]
Yo, I'm the type that's always catchin a flight
and sometimes I gotta be out at the height of the night
and that's when she flip and get on some 'ol

[Eve]
Another lonely night
seems like I'm on the side you only loving your mic
I know you gotta get that paper daddy keep that shit tight
but yo I need some sort of love in my life, you dig me
while politicin with my sister from new york city
she said she know this ball player and he think I'm pretty
Psych, I'm playin boo, you know it's just wit you I'm stayin boo
and when cats be poppin game I don't hear what they sayin boo
when you out there in the world, I'm still your girl
with all my classes I don't have the time for life's thrills
so when you sweatin on stage think of me when you rhyme
and don't be listenin to your homies they be leavin you blind

[Black] Yeah, so what you sayin I can trust you?
[Eve] Is you crazy, you my king for real
[Both] But sometimes relationships get ill
[Eve] No doubt

[Chorus]

[Black Thought]
Thet snake could be that chick
and that rat could be that cool cat
that's whispering "she tryin to play you for the fool Black"
if something's on your chest then let it be known
see I'm not your every five minutes all on the phone
and on the topic of trust, it's just a matter of fact
that people bite back and fracture what's intact
and they'll forever be I ain't on some "oh I'm a celebrity"
I deal with the real so if it's artificial let it be
I've seen people caught in love like whirlwinds
listening to they squads and listening to girlfriends
that's exactly the point where they whole world ends
lies come in, that's where that drama begins, she like

[Chorus: repeat until fade]

Next best thing

Hoy tenemos una canción recomendada por Manuel. La verdad es que me ha encantado, y espero que a vosotros os pase lo mismo! ;)





Mmm...
You know the difference between you and me?
Everything.
Do you know the reason why I left?
I was bored.
I'm sorry it just takes a little more
to hold my attention
Lets go back to the beginning
---

Girl meets boy everything is looking sweet
Time goes by and my eyes wander free
It's all my fault
I'm the one to blame
Shame on me and my man-eating game

I can truly say
That its not you its me
You can't cage a bird
when they're made to be free

I'm looking all around
Breaking hearts don't make me happy
I won't give you excuses
Can't change my colours
It's just useless
Ya got me looking for the next best thing
got, got mt looking for the next best thing )
Got me looking for the next best thing
got, got mt looking for the next best thing

Maybe one day the day the best will hold around
but til that day comes
I'll be searching around,
Nice girls always finish last
The guy wants a bitch
so he can feel like a man

I can truly say that baby, it's on me

You can't fly a kite
when you ain't got a string

I'm looking all around me
Breaking hearts don't make me happy
I won't give you excuses
Can't change my colors
It's just useless
Ya got me looking for the next best thing
got, got me looking for the next best thing
Got me looking for the next best thing
got, got me looking for the next best thing

It's a matter of a opinion
if I lost or if I'm winning
I'm a sucker for the sinning
can I get a witness?

I may be a little selfish
baby, girls are players too
it's just always very different
when the tables turn on you

I'm looking all around
Breaking hearts don't make me happy
I won't give you excuses
Can't change my colors
It's just useless
Ya got me looking for the next best thing
got, got me looking for the next best thing
Got me looking for the next best thing
got, got me looking for the next best thing

Got me looking...
yeah oh ho
yea yeah yeahhh

Yi Dance

Hoy, os pongo una canción que descubrí ayer buceando por Internet. Me gustó porque demuestra cómo transmitir sensaciones con tan sólo un instrumento y me parece ideal para tenerla de fondo mientras se está trabajando.

PD: La versión de Spotify tiene mucho mejor sonido.

Wonderful night

Hoy, tenemos una canción que ha sido la banda sonora de un gran encuentro entre amigos. La verdad es que otra cosa no, pero ritmo tiene todo el del mundo. Es pegadiza a más no poder!





Yeh, yeh yeh yeh yeh
Uhm hmm hm hm

It's a wonderful night
You’ve gotta take it from me
It’s a wonderful night

Come on and break it on down

It’s a wonderful night
You’ve gotta shake it for me
It’s a wonderful night

Come on and break it on down

It’s a wonderful night
Everybody can see
It’s a wonderful night

Come on and break it on down

It’s a wonderful night
Go ahead and release
It’s a wonderful night

Come on and break it on down

You know the music search engine need a tuneup
Soon as they out the gate they all a wanna hear da corner, uh-huh
Well that was cool but now but then I heard a rumor, uh-huh
Your crew was ridin' for the White Cliffs of Dover

Uh let me tell ya how we do it in California
We’ll have you on the run just like a puma
If it don’t move us
Ain’t paid ya dues and it ain’t gonna get our groove on so
We gonna lose ya to the consumer solution c’mon

It’s a wonderful night
You’ve gotta take it from me
It’s a wonderful night

Come on and break it on down

It’s a wonderful night
You’ve gotta shake it for me
It’s a wonderful night

Come on and break it on down

Girl I want it you got it
Your body’s like a narcotic
The thought is auto-erotic

Come on and break it on down

Can I get it on credit
I guess your brick-house I’ll bet it
Take it as far as you’ll let it

Come on and break it on down

That the spot will get hot
That its ready to pop
Don’t even look at the clock
All of your problems forgotten
It's time to rock till you drop
Feel the force and just flock
To the epicenter of the party’s bass tremors, c’mon

It’s a wonderful night
You’ve gotta take it from me
It’s a wonderful night

Come on and break it on down

It’s a wonderful night
You’ve gotta shake it for me
It’s a wonderful night

Come on and break it on down

We gonna stimulate your mind
Everybody’s high
Eyes just like a child
Everything feels right

Once you’ve seen the light
You're gonna move all night
Feel your soul ignite
Everything feels right, right, riggggggggghht

We live the masterful life that’s mythical
Feel its chords and its vibes atypical
Do what you want
It's alright this mystical time you’ve got
That’s a lot of this principle

If you stay in this moments so critical
Let the music change your brain stem’s chemicals
Make you feel like your spirit's invincible
Force centrifugal reaching up to your pinnacle now

It’s a wonderful night
You’ve gotta take it from me
It’s a wonderful night

Come on and break it on down

It’s a wonderful night
You’ve gotta shake it for me
It’s a wonderful night

Come on and break it on down

We rock like Colorado
You're at it throwin’ bottles
We give a fuck about who your status
Who you are tomorrow
Whether you beg or borrow
Or hit the super lotto
Whether your girl look like a minga or a supermodel

Feel the connectedness, energy, disprojected the weighted
The whole collective consciousness
Arise like helium oh
Groovin’ out of the question
Won’t disrespect him, but
Our style's fuckin’ posh like Dave Beckham c'mon

It’s a wonderful night
You’ve gotta take it from me
It’s a wonderful night

Come on and break it on down

It’s a wonderful night
You’ve gotta shake it for me
It’s a wonderful night

Come on and break it on down

The truth I’m at ‘em and rough ‘em
As hard as the granite get
Never hesitant upon a mic strike, quick
Like an avalanche
Hijack ya like a Comanche
I’m a man on a mission
Rhyme vigilante
Keep all the jealous and the envious antsy
Love to do the club though with the party people dancin’ uh-huh
And set the mood for all the plottin' and romancin’ uh-huh

It’s a wonderful night
We’ve got the answer c’mon
It’s a wonderful night
You’ve gotta take it from me
It’s a wonderful night
Come on and break it on down

It’s a wonderful night
You’ve gotta shake it for me
It’s a wonderful night

Come on and break it on down

Universal traveler

Hoy, de nuevo tenemos una canción relajante, algo futurista y que, sinceramente, se te pega mientras la escuchas. Totalmente recomendada para conducir ;)





I know so many places in the world
I follow the sun in my silver plane
Universal traveler

If you have a look
Outside on the sea
Everything is white
It's so wonderful
Universal traveler

So far, so far
So far away

I met so many
People in my life
I've got many friends
Who can care for me
Universal traveler

Just feel everywhere at home
Tomorrow
Is a brand new day
Let's go somewhere else
Universal Traveler

So far, so far
So far away

Shotgun

Hoy, aparece por aquí el sonido Motown de los 80. La verdad es que me encanta, porque además es un sonido que hoy en día casi se ha perdido. Y hay infinidad de grandes artistas y canciones. Los diría pero...simplemente, ya irán apareciendo por aquí ;)





I said,Shotgun shoot em for he runs now
Do the jerk baby
Do the jerk now
Hey!

Put on your red dress
And then you go downtown now
I said buy yourself a shotgun now
We're gonna break it down baby now
We're gonna load it up baby now
And then you shoot him for he runs now

I said,Shotgun shoot em for he runs now
Do the jerk baby
Do the jerk now
Hey!

[Instrumental sax]

I said,Shotgun shoot em for he runs now
Do the jerk baby
Do the jerk now
Hey!

Put on your high heels shoes
I said we're goin' down here listen to em play blues
We're gonna dig potatoes
We're gonna pick tomatoes

I said,Shotgun shoot em for he runs now
Do the jerk baby
Do the jerk now
Hey!

I said it's Twine Time
I said it's Twine Time
I said it's Twine Time
Hey!

Bloodstain

Hoy, tenemos una canción sumamente tranquilizante, o al menos esa sensación me da a mí. La verdad es que fue todo un descubrimiento. Espero que os guste!





They say if you took it all away
This love would fall apart
I say, no way
You don’t know the size of my heart.

Vicious, suspicious
It doesn’t matter what I say
Users and losers
There’s nothing here to make me stay.

Bloodstain on a blue vein
Take it with no shame
Love tracks on a loose train
Bloodstain

No gain with no pain
My scars are deeper than you think
Tie me, try me
One more time before I sink.

Big lies, big times
This love is not what we’re about
It’s too late, and I’m too straight
It’s time to blow this fire out.

Bloodstain on a blue vein
Take it with no shame
Love tracks on a loose train
Bloodstain on a blue vein

Take me softly
I’m going crazy for your touch.

Bloodstain on a blue vein
(blue....blood, blue....blood, blue...blood)
Take it with no shame
(no...take, no...take, no...take)

Be be k roche sample :
I’m alone
And dissatisfied
And someone else is alone
And dissatisfied

Blade runner sample :
You are alone?

Purple Haze

Hoy, se cumplen 40 años de la muerte de Jimi Hendrix pero, como todos sabemos, su música nunca murió. Desde aquí, nuestro pequeño homenaje a uno de los grandes de la historia de la música.





Purple haze all in my brain
Lately things just don't seem the same
Actin' funny, but I don't know why
'Scuse me while I kiss the sky

Purple haze all around
Don't know if I'm comin' up or down
Am I happy or in misery?
Whatever it is, that girl put a spell on me

Help me help me
Oh no no... no

Yeah
Purple haze all in my eyes
Don't know if it's day or night
You've got me blowin, blowin my mind
Is it tomorrow or just the end of time?

No, help me aw yeah! oh no no oh help me...

Lady Blue

Para terminar la semana laborable, tenemos a uno de los grandes artista españoles que, además, ya ha pasado por aquí. Mi canción favorita de Bunbury por cierto.





Hoy voy a empezar
hoy es el comienzo del final
del cocodrilo
astronauta soy en órbita lunar

Y ahora todo es mejor
La lluvia de asteroides ya pasó
no fue para tanto
y desde aquí

todo es insignificante
nada es tan preocupante
y el espacio es un lugar
tan vacío sin ti

Lady, Lady Blue
Sin control, sin dirección
La luz se fue, ¿a dónde voy?

Lady, Lady Blue
Sin control, sin dirección
La luz se fue, ¿a dónde voy?

No volverás a ver
la mirada triste
del chico que observaba el infinito
Llamando a la estación:
perdemos combustible y la tripulación
se quiere despedir desde aquí

Dejo esta grabación
a falta de algo mejor
la soledad es un lugar
tan vacío sin ti

Lady, Lady Blue
Sin control y sin dirección
La luz se fue, ¿a dónde voy?

Lady, Lady Blue
Sin control y sin dirección
La luz se fue, ¿a dónde voy?

Burnin' for you

Para terminar con esta gran actualización ( de nuevo estaré unos días fuera ), tenemos una canción algo antigua pero con grandes dosis de ritmo y guitarra. Como curiosidad, aparece en la banda sonora de Supernatural.





Home in the valley
Home in the city
Home isn't pretty
Ain't no home for me

Home in the darkness
Home on the highway
Home isn't my way
Home will never be

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight
I'm living for giving the devil his due

And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

Time is the essence
Time is the season
Time ain't no reason
Got no time to slow

Time everlasting
Time to play besides
Time ain't on my side
Time I'll never know

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I'm not the one to tell you what's wrong or what's right
I've seen signs of what (freezing their eyes) went through

Well I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight
I'm living for giving the devil his due

And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you [repeat]

We made you

Para el miércoles, vuelve a aparecer Eminem por aquí. Sé que ya ha aparecido alguna otra vez por aquí pero, desde mi opinión, tiene un buen número de grandes canciones. Ésta, junto a Jessica Simpson, me parece una de las más corales que tiene.





Guess Who?
You Miss me?
Jessica Simpson sing the chorus

Chorus : Dina Rae
When you walk through the door
It was clear to me (clear to me)
You’re the one they adore
Who they came to see (who they came to see)
You’re a rockstar (baby)
Everybody wants you (everybody wants you)
Player, Who can really play you
(Who can really play you)
We’re the ones who made you

Eminem
Back by popular demand
Now pop a little zantac for antacid if you can
You’re ready to tackle any task that is at hand
How does it feel? Is it fantastic, is it grand?
Well look at all the massive masses in the stands
Shady, man, no, don’t massacre the fans
I think Kim Kardashian’s a man
She stomped him just because he asked to put his hands
On her massive glutius maximus again
Squeeze it, squish it, then pass it to her friend
Can he come back as nasty as he can?
Yes, he can-can, don’t ask me this again
He does not mean to lesbian offend
But Lindsay, please come back to seeing men
Samantha’s a two, you’re practically a ten
I know you want me, girl, in fact, I can see a grin.
Now come in girl

Chorus : Dina Rae
When you walk through the door
It was clear to me (clear to me)
You’re the one they adore
Who they came to see (who they came to see)
You’re a rock star (baby)
Everybody wants you (everybody wants you)
Player, Who can really blame you
(Who can really blame you)
We’re the ones who made you

Verse 2 : Eminem
The enforcer, looking for more women to torture
Walk up to the cutest girl and “Charley Horse”
Sorry Portia, but whats Ellen DeGeneres
Have that I don’t, are you telling me tenderness?
Well I can be as gentle and as smooth as a gentleman
Give me my ventolin inhaler and 2 xenadrines
And I’ll invite Sarah Palin out to dinner then
Nail her,’Baby say hello to my little friend’
Brit forget K Fed lets cut off the middle man
Forget him or your gona end up in hospital again
And this time it wont be for the ritalin binge
Forget them other men, girl pay them little attention
A little bit did I mention
That Jennifer’s in love with me John Mayer
So sit on the bench
Man I swear them other guys you give em an inch
They take a mile, they got style bigger than Slim

Chorus : Dina Rae
When you walk through the door
It was clear to me (clear to me)
You’re the one they adore
Who they came to see (who they came to see)
You’re a rock star (baby)
Everybody wants you (everybody wants you)
Player, Who can really blame you
(Who can really blame you)
We’re the ones who made you

And that’s why my love
You’ll never live without
I know you want me girl
Cause I can see you checking me out
And baby, you know
You know you want me too
Don’t try to deny it baby
I’m the only one for you

Damn girl I’m beginning to sprout an Alfalfa
Why should I wash my filthy mouth out
You think that’s bad you should hear the rest of my album
Never has there been so finesse and nostalgia
Man Cash, I don’t mean to mess up your gal but
Jessica Alba put a breast in my mouth but
Wowzers, I just made a mess of my trousers
And they wonder why I keep dressing like Elvis
Lord help us hes back in his pink Alf shirt
Looking like someone shrinked his outfit
I think hes about to flip
Jessica rest assure, Superman here to rescue you
Can you blame me?
You’re my Amy, im your Blake
Matter fact make me a birthday cake
With a saw blade in it to make my jail break
Baby, I think you just met your soul mate
(Now break it down girl)

Chorus : Dina Rae
When you walk through the door
It was clear to me (clear to me)
You’re the one they adore
Who they came to see (who they came to see)
You’re a rock star (baby)
Everybody wants you (everybody wants you)
Player, Who can really blame you
(Who can really blame you)
We’re the ones who made you

So baby, baby
Get down, down, down
Baby, get down, down down
(repeat)

Oh Amy
Rehab never looked so good,
I can wait, Im going back

I believe

Para el martes tenemos a R. Kelly, uno de los más conocidos autores de música negra. Ya sabéis que, a pesar de buscar y navegar por todos los estilos, siempre vuelvo a mi favorito y ésta es una gran manera de volver.





BARACK OBAMA:
In small towns and big cities
We came together
As democrats, republicans, and independents
To stand up and say that we are
ONE NATION, we are ONE PEOPLE
And our time for changed has COME..

R. KELLY:
When the mountain seems too high
And you don't have the courage nor the strength to climb
And the road you're on won't end
But still you run though you cannot see the finish line

And dark clouds are over you
Your skies no longer blue
But you marched on straight ahead
Somehow you made it through

Got to the mountain peek
They left a path of me
Your victory made history and now

CHORUS:
I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh I

When it felt like you were weak
And couldn't fight no more
On the ropes and it seemed like
You was gonna run out of breathe

When the world was on your shoulder
And the walls were in your way
You leaped and made it over
Through it all you kept the faith

Mon amie la rose

Hoy tenemos una canción que nos descubrió Dani hace poco. La verdad es que la voz de Françoise Hardy hipnotiza!





On est bien peu de chose
Et mon amie la rose
Me l'a dit ce matin
A l'aurore je suis née
Baptisée de rosée
Je me suis épanouie
Heureuse et amoureuse
Aux rayons du soleil
Me suis fermée la nuit
Me suis réveillée vieille
Pourtant j'étais très belle
Oui j'étais la plus belle
Des fleurs de ton jardin
On est bien peu de chose
Et mon amie la rose
Me l'a dit ce matin
Vois le dieu qui m'a faite
Me fait courber la tête
Et je sens que je tombe
Et je sens que je tombe
Mon c£ur est presque nu
J'ai le pied dans la tombe
Déjà je ne suis plus
Tu m'admirais hier
Et je serai poussière
Pour toujours demain.
On est bien peu de chose
Et mon amie la rose
Est morte ce matin
La lune cette nuit
A veillé mon amie
Moi en rêve j'ai vu
Eblouissante et nue
Son âme qui dansait
Bien au-delà des nues
Et qui me souriait
Crois celui qui peut croire
Moi, j'ai besoin d'espoir
Sinon je ne suis rien
Ou bien si peu de chose
C'est mon amie la rose
Qui l'a dit hier matin.
La lune cette nuit
A veillé mon amie
Moi en rÛve j'ai vu
Eblouissante et nue
Son âme qui dansait
Bien au-delÓ des nues
Et qui me souriait
Crois celui qui peut croire
Moi, j'ai besoin d'espoir
Sinon je ne suis rien

Secrets

Hoy, tenemos una recomendación de una persona tan especial como esta canción. Escuchadla porque, desde luego, merece la pena.





I need another story
Something to get off my chest
My life gets kinda boring
Need something that I can confess
Til' all my sleeves are stained red
From all the truth that I've said
Come by it honestly I swear
Thought you saw wink, no
I've been on the brink, so

Tell me what you want to hear
Something that were like those years
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

My god, amazing how we got this far
It's like we're chasing all those stars
Who's driving shiny big black cars
And everyday I see the news
All the problems that we could solve
And when a situation rises
Just write it into an album
Singing straight, too cold
I don't really like my flow, no, so

Tell me what you want to hear
Something that were like those years
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

Oh, got no reason, got not shame
Got no family I can blame
Just don't let me disappear
I'mma tell you everything

So tell me what you want to hear
Something that were like those years
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

So tell me what you want to hear
Something that were like those years
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
All my secrets away, All my secrets away

Errors

Hoy tenemos una de esas canciones raras que, últimamente, tanto me gusta escuchar. Reconozco que pueden llegar a ser un poco rayantes pero....algo tienen!

Lady Writer

Hoy, ya puestos al día, tenemos una canción de los míticos Dire Straits. Reconozco que era un poco doloroso que aún no hubieran estado por aquí así que gracias a Jaime por recordarnos a este gran grupo.





Lady writer on the TV
Talk about the Virgin Mary
Reminded me of you
Expectation left to come up to yeah

Lady writer on the TV
She had another quality
The way you used to look
And I know you never read a book

Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
And I recall my fall from grace
Another time, another place

Lady writer on the TV
She had all the brains and the beauty
The pictures does not fit
You'd talk to me when you felt like it

Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
And I recall my fall from grace
Another time another place

Yes and your rich old man,
You know he'd a call her a dead ringer
You got the same command
Plus your mother was a Jazz singer

Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
And I recall my fall from grace
Another time another place

Lady writer on the TV
She knew all about a history
You couldn't hardly write your name
I think I want it just the same as the...

Lady writer on the TV
Talking about the Virgin Mary
You know I'm talking about you and me
And the lady writer on the TV
Talking about the Virgin Mary
Yeah you know I'm talking about you and me
And the lady writer on the TV

When a man loves a woman

Con un pelín de retraso, tenemos una de las canciones románticas por excelencia. Además, la version en vivo entre Michael Bolton y Percy Sledge es una pasada!





When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothing else
He'll trade the world
For the good thing he's found
If she's bad he can't see it
She can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend
If he put her down

When a man loves a woman
Spend his very last dime
Tryin' to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all his comfort
Sleep out in the rain
If she said that's the way it ought to be

Well, this man loves a woman
I gave you everything I had
Tryin' to hold on to your precious love
Baby, please don't treat me bad

When a man loves a woman
Down deep in his soul
She can bring him such misery
If she plays him for a fool
He's the last one to know
Lovin' eyes can't ever see

When a man loves a woman
He can do no wrong
He can never own some other girl
Yes when a man loves a woman
I know exactly how he feels
'Cause baby, baby, baby, you're my world

When a man loves a woman.....

Broken Love Song

Hoy tenemos de una canción de Pete Doherty a quien, a pesar de sus constantes problemas e idas de olla, considero un gran artista.





Take a broken love song
Keep it by your side
Never be lonely
Find a place to hide

By the west way
Inside the scrubs
How long must we wait?
For they're killing us?
Killing us

Oh
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
Still

Through my cell window
Hear the loft boys sing
Come on you R's
Carried on the wind

Every morning
I'll be singing
Like a caged bird who might say
John, Paul, George and Ringo
Help me pass the hours away

Free as a bird
Would I be
Another dawn creeps up on me
On me
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
Still

Letters from faceless haters
That'd love to
See my swinging in my cell
Oh I never saw a man
who looked like such a wistful eye,
upon the little tent of blue prisoners
call the sky

They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
Still

Icarus

Hoy tenemos una de esas canciones en las que la letra casi no importa. Basta con dejarse llevar por el ritmo, la vo dulce de la cantante y la tranquilidad que transmite...





Let the sun rain down on me
'Til covered in dew
All pink and new and reborn
Cut past the gray and countless forms
Condemned to kill or be conquered.

Slender as a carp you are
Your skin defiantly silver and so sure
As for me, I am not so sure
I watch you skate like a knife
Beneath the water

Though I can see clearly ahead of me
I cannot stop it once I'm set a-spinning
Oh, What can it mean? why must I always see
The ending at the beginning?

Together going arm and arm
To meet our solitude, to meet it head on
I'll meet you where the water's warm
To meet my solitude, I'll meet it head on

Though I can see clearly ahead of me
I cannot stop it once I'm set a-spinning
Oh, What can it mean? Why must I always see
The ending at the beginning?

The real damage

Hoy tenemos una de esas canciones en las que se aprecia que no hace falta un gran número de instrumentos, simplemente con una guitarra, una buena letra y una voz bonita, se pueden conseguir cosas como ésta.





I woke up on a sofa in an unfamiliar house,
surrounded by sleeping folks I didn't know. On
failing to find my friends, I decided it was
clearly time to go. So I made my way out of the
door as quietly as I could - there was no one
there I knew to say goodbye, Squinting in the
sadly sobering sunshine of the Sunday morning
light.

I started the night with all my friends and I
ended up alone. I started out so happy now I'm
hungover and down. It was about then that I
realized I was half-way through the best years of
my life.

I scanned the local landmarks, trying to find out
where I was, and maybe even find a bus back home,
[ Find more Lyrics on http://mp3lyrics.org/VEY ]
Longing for a shower, and for clean sheets, and a
charger for my phone. Suddenly it hit me - I got
paid this Friday last, and so I rifled through my
pockets for some change. But all I found was a
packet of broken cigarettes and a sinking sense of
shame.

I had to ask myself: Is is really worth it? Is any
of this worth it? Well the whole thing's far from
perfect, But I've yet to figure out a better way
to spend my time.

Too many suits and dirty looks made me rack my
brains - the real damage started to sink in. It'd
been quite a heavy weekend and I could just about
remember where I'd been. Well I started the night
with all my friends and I ended up alone, I
started out so happy now I'm hungover and down. I
stood on a street corner and I felt a little sick.
It was about then that I realized I was halfway
through the first day of the week.

Adagio for strings

Hoy, como en la vida, tiene que haber hueco para todo tipo de música, incluidas desfases como éste que vais a ver provocado por uno de los mejores DJs del mundo: Tiesto.

Never say never

Hoy, tenemos una canción que Manuel me pidió que pusiera...bienvenidas sean las peticiones de esta calidad. La canción es espectacular! ;)





There's some things we don't talk about
rather do without
and just hold the smile
falling in and out of love
ashamed and proud of
together all the while

You can never say never
why we dont know when
time and time again
younger now than we were before

Don't let me go
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
[x2]

Picture you're the queen of everything
as far as the eye can see
under your command
I will be your guardian
when all is crumbling
steady your hand

You can never say never
why we dont know when
time, time and time again
younger now then we were before

Don't let me go
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
[x2]

We're pulling apart and coming together again and again
We're growing apart but we pull it together, pull it together, together again

Don't let me go
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
[x4]

Make your own kind of music

Para terminar esta gran actualización y ponernos al día, tenemos un tema que a mí siempre que lo escucho me consigue sacar una sonrisa. Además, para los adictos a Lost, aparece en la serie :P





Nobody can tell ya;
There's only one song worth singin'.
They may try and sell ya,
'cause it hangs them up
to see somone like you.

But you've gotta make your own kind of music
sing your own special song,
make your own kind of music even if nobody
else sing along.

So if you cannot take my hand,
and if you must be goin',
I will understand.

You're gonna be knowing
the loneliest kind of lonely.
It may be rough goin',
just to do your thing's
the hardest thing to do.

But you've gotta make your own kind of music
sing your own special song,
make your own kind of music even if nobody
else sings along.

So if you cannot take my hand,
and if you must be goin',
I will understand.

You gotta make your own kind of music
sing your own special song,
make your own kind of music even if nobody
else sings along.

Hurt

Para el martes, tenemos una canción triste. La letra es muy melancólica y la verdad es que Johnny Cash transmite esa sensación perfectamente.





I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

We belong together

Para comenzar el mes de septiembre, tenemos una grata sorpresa en forma de artista desconocido para mí. Buscando otra canción fui a parar a ésta...y la verdad es que me cautivó. Muy muy bonita.





We belong together,
like the open seas and shores.
wedded by the planet force,
we've all been spoken for.


The hammer may strike, be dead on the ground.
a nail to my hand, a cross on his crown.
we're done if, who we're undone,
finished if who we are incomplete.
as one we are everything,
we are everything we need.

we belong together,
like the open seas and shores,
wedded by the planet force,
we've all been spoken for

What good is a life, with no one to share,
the light of the moon, the honor of a swear.
we can try to live the way in which you speak,
taste the milk of your mother earth's love,
spread the word of consciences you see,
we are everything we need

We belong together,
like the open seas and shores.
wedded by the planet force,
we've all been spoken for.

All this indecision,
all this independent strength,
still, we've got our hearts on save,
we've got our hearts on safe.

someday when you're lonley,
sometime after all this bliss,
somewhere lost in emptiness,
I hope you find this gift...
I hope you find this gift...
I hope you find this gift.

Odessa

Para el martes, tenemos una extraña mezcla de sonidos esencialmente electrónicos. La verdad es que últimamente me estoy encontrando con bastantes temas interesantes de este tipo, que a mí me encantan especialmente para conducir!





Taking it slow, saving up she
Before she know it, all I ask before she goes home
She's tired of cryin and sick of his lies
She's suffered him for far too many years of her life

Feeling low, and scared that he'll say
Do you know how overtime you drove her away
Saving up to, the day when she goes
The day that she stands up
for everything that she chose

(She can say, she can say, she can say
She can say, she can say, she can say
Who knows what shes gonna say)
-repeat-
(She Can Say)

instrument

Saving up for, the day when she goes
The day that she stands up
For everything that she chose
Caribou Odessa lyrics found on
Turn around the life she let him siphon away

And I've been with you, for all of these years
Tell you what I've got to show for all of my tears
The times you hurt me, and treated me wrong
Something had to give to stop this thing from going on

(She can say, she can say, she can say
She can say, she can say, she can say
Who knows what shes gonna say)
-repeat-
(She Can Say)

instrument

(She can say, she can say, she can say
She can say, she can say, she can say
Who knows what shes gonna say)

She's tired of crying, and sick of his lies
She's suffered him for far too many years of her life
Feeling low, and scared that he'll say
Do you know how overtime you drove her away

Sade

Para empezar la nueva semana, uno de los grandes saxofonistas de siempre. Es difícil recomendar una porque Kenny G tiene canciones buenas a expuertas, pero a mí me gusta particularmente ésta. Espero que a vosotros también!

Run this town

Para el domingo, para mi uno de los grandes temas del año en cuanto a música negra. La canción es impresionante, cosa nada extraña cuando se unen tres auténticos monstruos de la música negra como son Rihanna, Kanye West y Jay Z.





[Intro - Rihanna]

Feel it comin' in the air
see me the sreets from everywhere
I'm addicted to the thrill
It's a dangerous spooky man
Can't be scared when it goes down
Got a problem, tell me now
Only thing that's on my mind
Is who's gonna run this town tonight...
Is who's gonna run this town tonight...
We gonna run this town

[Verse 1 - Jay-Z]

We are
Yeah I said it
We are
This is Roc Nation
Pledge your allegiance
Get y'all fatigues on
All black everything
Black cards, black cars
All black everything
And our girls are blackbirds
Ridin' with they dillingers
I'd get more in Depth
If you boys really real enough
This is la familia
I'll explain later
But for now let me get back to this paper
I'm a couple bands down and I'm tryin' to get back
I gave the other grip, I lost a flip for five stacks
Yeah I'm talkin' five comma
Six zeros
Dot zero
Here it go...
Back to runnin' circles 'round white folks
Now we fired up
Hold up

[Chorus - Rihanna]

Life's a game but it's not fair
I break the rules so I don't care
So I keep doin' my own thing
Walkin' tall against the rain
Victory's within the mile
Almost there, don't give up now
Only thing that's on my mind
Is who's gonna run this town tonight
Heeeey-hey-hey-hey-hey-heyyy
Hey-heyyy-hey-hey-heyy
Heeeey-hey-hey-hey-hey-heyyy
(Is who's gonna run this town tonight)
Hey-hey-hey-heyyy

[Verse 2 - Jay-Z]

We are
Yeah I said it
We are
You can call me C's r
In a dark Cigar
Please follow the lea-der
So Eric B. we are
Microphone fiend
It's the return of thee God
Peace God...
(Auh! Auh! )
And ain't nobody fresher
I'm in Mason
(Ah! )
Martin Margiela
On the tape we're screamin'
what its the other side, they jealous
We got a bankhead full of broads(?)
They got a table full of fellas... (?)
And they ain't spending no cake
They should throw they hand in
'Cause they ain't got no spades...
My whole team got dough
So my bankhead is lookin' like millionaire's 'fro

[Chorus - Rihanna]

Life's a game but it's not fair
I break the rules so I don't care
So I keep doin' my own thing
Walkin' tall against the rain
Victory's within the mile
Almost there, don't give up now
Only thing that's on my mind
Is who's gonna run this town tonight
Heeeey-hey-hey-hey-hey-heyyy
Hey-heyyy-hey-hey-heyy
Heeeey-hey-hey-hey-hey-heyyy
(Is who's gonna run this town tonight)
Hey-hey-hey-heyyy

[Verse 3 - Kanye West]

It's crazy how you can go from being Joe Blow
To everybody on your dick, no homo
I bought my whole family whips, no Volvos
Next time I'm in church, please no photos (crowd who would want to take pics of you)
Police escorts
Everybody passports
This the life that everybody ask for
This a fast life
We are on a crash course
What you think I rap for
To push a RAV4 forward?
But I know that if I stay stun-ting
All these girls only gonna want one thing
I could spend my whole life good will hun-ting
Only good gon' come is as good when I'm cumm-ing
She got a ass that'll swallow up a g-string
And up top, unh...
Two bee stings
And I'm beasting
Off the riesling
And my nigga just made it out the precinct
We give a damn about the drama that your dude bring
I'm just tryin' to change the color on your mood ring
Reebok
Baby
You need to drop some new things
Have you ever had shoes without shoe strings?
What's that 'Ye?
Baby, these heels
Is that a may?
What!
Baby, these wheels
You trippin' when you ain't sippin'
Have a refill
You trippin' when you runnin', huh?
Now you know how we feel

[Outro - Rihanna]

We gonna run this town tonight!

[Outro - Jay-Z]

Wassup!

California Gurls

Para el sábado, tenemos uno de los grandes éxitos del verano. La verdad es que la canción tiene mucha frescura y, reconozco, Kate Perry me ha sorprendido con su nuevo disco.





[Snoop Dogg]
Greetings loved ones
Let's take a journey

[Katy Perry - Verse 1]
I know a place
Where the grass is really greener
Warm, wet and wild
There must be somethin' in the water
Sippin' gin and juice
Layin' underneath the palm trees (Undone)
The boys
Break their necks
Try'na creep a little sneak peek (At us)

You could travel the world
But nothing comes close
To the Golden Coast
Once you party with us
You'll be falling in love
Oooooh oh oooooh

[Katy Perry - Chorus]
California girls
We're unforgettable
Daisy Dukes
Bikinis on top
Sun-kissed skin
So hot
We'll melt your Popsicle
Oooooh oh oooooh

California girls
We're undeniable
Fine, fresh, fierce
We got it on lock
Westcoast represent
Now put your hands up
Oooooh oh oooooh

[Katy Perry - Verse 2]
Sex on the beach
We don't mind sand in our Stilettos
We freak
In my Jeep
Snoop Doggy Dogg on the stereo (Oh oh)

You could travel the world
But nothing comes close
To the Golden Coast
Once you party with us
You'll be falling in love
Oooooh oh oooooh

[Katy Perry - Chorus]
California girls
We're unforgettable
Daisy Dukes
Bikinis on top
Sun-kissed skin
So hot
We'll melt your Popsicle
Oooooh oh oooooh

California gurls
We're undeniable
Fine, fresh, fierce
We got it on lock
Westcoast represent
Now put your hands up
Oooooh oh oooooh

African Children

Hoy, tenemos la canción del viernes pasado :P Siento no haber podido actualizar estos días pero me ha sido imposible. La verdad es que me he sentido raro sin publicar mi canción diaria...

Pero para enmendarlo, aquí tenemos una mega actualización. Empezamos con reggae, estilo que ya ha salido alguna vez por aquí y que a mí siempre me transmite un buen rollo increíble!





Many African children,
Living in a concrete situation
African children
Living in a concrete situation
African children
I wonder do they know where you're coming from
African children
Down there yes in a concrete situation
African children
I wonder do they know where you're coming from
The whole of the nation
Living in these tenements,
Crying and applying to their council
For assistance every day
Now that their tribulation so sad
Now that their environment so bad
High rise concrete
No back yard for their children to play
African children
I wonder do they know where you're coming from,
African children
In a concrete situation
African children
Wonder do they know where you're coming from
All of the nation are living in these tenements
Precast stonewall concrete cubicals
Their rent increases each and every other day
Structural repairs are assessed yet not done
Lift out of action on the twenty-seventh floor

And when they work they smell
African children
Living in a concrete situation
African children
I wonder do they know where you're coming from
African children
Living in a concrete situation
African children
I wonder do they know where you're coming from
African children
Down there down there in a concrete situation
African children
Wonder do they know where you're coming from
Where you're coming from
African children
REPEAT

Sometimes wanting to party late into the night
And when they're out of sight
The neighbours' complaining again
And its a place where
You don't even know your neighbour's name
It's a ghetto in the sky
