Grande banda.

As coisas que se podem fazer em cima de uma mota... amazing.

Amazing - Aerosmith

I kept the right ones out
And let the wrong ones in
Had an angel of mercy to see me through all my sins
There were times in my life
When I was goin' insane
Tryin' to walk through
The pain
When I lost my grip
And I hit the floor
Yeah,I thought I could leave but couldn't get out the door
I was so sick and tired
Of livin' a lie
I was wishin' that I
Would die

It's Amazing
With the blink of an eye you finally see the light
It's Amazing
When the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright
It's Amazing
And I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight

That one last shot's a Permanent Vacation
And how high can you fly with broken wings?
Life's a journey, not a destination
And I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings

You have to learn to crawl
Before you learn to walk
But I just couldn't listen to all that righteous talk, oh yeah
I was out on the street,
Just tryin' to survive
Scratchin' to stay
Alive

It's Amazing
With the blink of an eye you finally see the light
It's Amazing
When the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright
It's Amazing
And I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight

Desperate hearts, desperate hearts

Apesar da curta passagem por aqui, o lendário Jim Morrison será sempre um ícone.

Riders on the Storm - The Doors

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house were born
Into this world were thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan
Riders on the storm

Theres a killer on the road
His brain is squirmin like a toad
Take a long holiday
Let your children play
If ya give this man a ride
Sweet memory will die
Killer on the road, yeah

Girl ya gotta love your man
Girl ya gotta love your man
Take him by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends
Our life will never end
Gotta love your man, yeah

Wow!

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house were born
Into this world were thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out alone
Riders on the storm

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm

p.s: não é o vídeo oficial, mas é boa onda...

Track 86 - I never conquered

Embora seja um pouco triste, gosto muito desta música.

Adam's Song - Blink 182

I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest who'd have known
I traced the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine, I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed, to go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone

I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over we'd survived
I couldn't wait till I got home
To pass the time in my room alone

I never thought I'd die alone
Another six months I'll be unknown
Give all my things to all my friends
You'll never set foot in my room again
You'll close it off, board it up
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault

I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over we'd survived
I couldn't wait till I got home
To pass the time in my room alone

I never conquered, rarely came
Tomorrow holds such better days
Days when I can still feel alive
When I can't wait to get outside
The world is wide, the time goes by
The tour is over, I'd survived
I can't wait till I get home
To pass the time in my room alone

Uma pequena ENORME banda. O vídeo está um bocado "vá para fora cá dentro"...

Special K - Placebo

Coming up beyond belief
On this coronary thief
More than just a leitmotif
More chaotic, no relief
I'll describe the way I feel
Weeping wounds that never heal
Can the savior be for real
Or are you just my seventh seal?

No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special K
Just like I swallowed half my stash
I never ever want to crash
No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special K
Now you're back with dope demand
I'm on sinking sand
Gravity
No escaping gravity
Gravity
No escaping... not for free
I fall down... hit the ground
Make a heavy sound
Every time you seem to come around

I'll describe the way I feel
You're my new Achilles heel
Can this savior be for real
Or are you just my seventh seal?

No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special K
Just like I swallowed half my stash
I never ever want to crash
No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special K
Now you're back with dope demand
I'm on sinking sand

Gravity
No escaping gravity
Gravity
No escaping... not for free
I fall down... hit the ground
Make a heavy sound
Every time you seem to come around

No escaping gravity
No escaping gravity
No escaping gravity
No escaping gravity
Gravity (x4)

Esta banda tem muitas músicas boas, só é pena não ouvir falar deles mais vezes...

Spin - Lifehouse

why would I chase your shadow all my life
and be afraid of my own?
I'd rather be with you
I'd rather not know
where I'll be than
be alone and convinced that I know

when the world keeps spinning round
my world's upside down
you and I wouldn't change a thing
I've got nothing else to lose
I lost it all when I found you
and I wouldn't change a thing
no, you and I wouldn't change a thing

everything I know has let me down
so I will just let go
let you turn me inside out
cause I know I'm not sure
about anything
but you wouldn't have it any other way

when the world keeps spinning round
my world's upside down
you and I wouldn't change a thing
I've got nothing else to lose
I lost it all when I found you
and I wouldn't change a thing
no, you and I wouldn't change a thing

spinning turning watching burning
all my life has found its meaning
walking crawling climbing falling
all my life has found its meaning

you and I wouldn't change a thing
no, you and I wouldn't change a thing

when the world keeps spinning round
my world's upside down
you and I wouldn't change a thing
I've got nothing else to lose
I lost it all when I found you
and I wouldn't change a thing
no, you and I wouldn't change a thing

no, you and I wouldn't change a thing

Track 83 - tell me...

Sem comentários. Basta ouvir.
Simplesmente brilhante.

Drops of Jupiter - Train

Now that she’s back in the atmosphere
With drops of jupiter in her hair, hey, hey
She acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there’s time to change, hey, hey
Since the return from her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like june, hey, hey

Tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated

Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

Now that she’s back from that soul vacation
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey
She checks out mozart while she does tae-bo
Reminds me that there’s time to grow, hey, hey

Now that she’s back in the atmosphere
I’m afraid that she might think of me as plain ol’ jane
Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the milky way
And tell me, did venus blow your mind
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you even when I know you’re wrong
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance, five-hour phone conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had ... and me

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back toward the milky way

Tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated

And tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself
And did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And did you fall for a shooting star
Fall for a shooting star

And now you're looking for yourself out there.

P.S: Aumentem um bocadinho o volume para ouvir bem a música -

Grande banda. Grande música.

Run to the Water - Live

oh desert speak to my heart
oh woman of the earth
maker of children who weep for love
maker of this birth
'til your deepest secrets are known to me
I will not be moved
I will not be moved

"don't try to find the answer
when there ain't no question here
brother let your heart be wounded
and give no mercy to your fear"

adam and eve live down the street from me
babylon is every town
it's as crazy as it's ever been
love's a stranger all around

in a moment we lost our minds here
and lay our spirit down
today we lived a thousand years
all we have is now

run to the water
and find me there
burnt to the core but not broken
we'll cut through the madness
of these streets below the moon
these streets below the moon

and I will never leave you
'til we can say, "this world was just a dream
we were sleepin' now we are awake"
'til we can say

in a moment we lost our minds here
and dreamt the world was round
a million mile fall from grace
thank god we missed the ground

run to the water
and find me there
burnt to the core but not broken
we'll cut through the madness
of these streets below the moon
with a nuclear fire of love in our hearts

yeah, I can see it now lord
out beyond all the breakin' of waves
and the tribulation
it's a place and the home of ascended souls
who swam out there in love!

run to the water
and find me there
burnt to the core but not broken
we'll cut through the madness
of these streets below the moon
with a nuclear fire of love in our hearts
rest easy baby, rest easy
and recognize it all as light and rainbows
smashed to smithereens and be happy
run to the water (and find me there)
run to the water

Não sei o que é feito desta banda, mas tem músicas que não são esquecidas.

Let her Cry - Hootie & the Blowfish

She sits alone by a lampost
trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind
She says Dad's the one I love the most
but Stipe's not far behind

She never lets me in
only tells me where she's been
when she's had too much to drink
I say that I don't care, I just run my hands
through her dark hair then I pray to God
you gotta help me fly away

And just...
Let her cry..if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing...if it eases all her pain
Let her go...let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be...let her be.

This morning I woke up alone
found a note standin' by the phone
saying baby, maybe I'll be back some day
I wanted to look for you
You walked in I didn't know just what I should do
so I sat back down and had a beer
and felt sorry for myself.

Sayin'...
Let her cry...if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing...if it eases all her pain
Let her go...let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be...let her be.

Let her cry...if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing...if it eases all her pain
Let her go...let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be...awww...

Last night I tried to leave
cried so much I could not believe
she was the same girl I fell in love
with long ago
She went in the back to get high
I sat down on my couch and cried
yellin' "Oh mama, please help me!
Won't you hold my hand?"

And
Let her cry...if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing...if it eases all her pain
Let her go...let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be...let her be.

Let her cry...if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing...if it eases all her pain
Let her go...let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be...let her be.

Não consigo colocar aqui o vídeo oficial - não é nada de mais, mas caso estejam curiosos, fica o link.
Mesmo assim podem ver este vídeo, ou então deixar só a música a tocar...

Esta banda conquistou-me logo desde a primeira música que ouvi (One Step Closer). A letra desta está muito boa e o vídeo excelente.

Breaking the Habit - Linkin Park

Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I’m picking me apart again
You all assume
I’m safe here in my room
(unless I try to start again)

I don’t want to be the one
The battles always choose
‘Cause inside I realize
That I’m the one confused

I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don’t know why I instigate
And say what I don’t mean
I don’t know how I got this way
I know it’s not alright
So I’m
Breaking the habit
Tonight

Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more
Than anytime before
I had no options left again

I’ll paint it on the walls
‘Cause I’m the one at fault
I’ll never fight again
And this is how it ends

I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
To show you what I mean
I don’t know how I got this way
I’ll never be alright
So I’m
Breaking the habit
Breaking the habit
Tonight

Eu simplesmente adoro esta música.

American Girls - Counting Crows

She comes out on Fridays every time
Stands out in a line
I could have been anyone she'd seen
She waits another week to fall apart
She couldn’t make another day
I wish it was anyone but me
I could have been anyone you see
She had something breakable just under her skin

American girls are weather and noise
Playing the changes for all of the boys
Holding a candle right up to my hands
Making me feel so incredible

She comes out of closets every night
But then she locks herself away
Where she could keep everything from me
I could have been anyone you see
She’s nothing but porcelain underneath her skin

American girls are weather and noise
Playing the changes for all of the boys
Holding a candle right up to my hand
Making me feel so incredible

Little shiver shaking me everyday
But I could get this same thing anywhere
So if she goes away
Well, it's alright and I'm ok
Hey, she said come back again tonight
And I said, I might, I might, I might
She said, well that's alright
If it's alright, it's alright with you
If it's alright, if it's alright with me

I waited for an hour last Friday night
She never came around
She took almost everything from me
I’m going through my closets
Trying on her clothes, almost everyday
I could have been anyone you see
I wish it was anyone but me
Nothing but pills and ashes under my skin

American girls, oh
American girls
American girls
Oh, oh, oh, oh

American girls, oh
American girls
American girls
Oh, oh, oh, oh

You made me cry
You made me cry
You made me cry
Yeah, you made me cry
You made me cry
Hey, Miss American Girl
Oh, oh, oh, yeah

Track 78 - Are you in?

Grande música, o baixo é simplesmente excelente.

Are you in - Incubus

It's so much better
When everyone is in
Are you in?
It's so much better
When everyone is in
Are you in?
Ooh ooh
Are you in?
You ooh
Are you in?
It's so much better
When everyone is in
Are you in?
It's so much easier
When sea foam green
Is in fashion
You you, oh
Are you in?
You ooh ooh ooh
Are you

Are you are you are you
Are you are you are you
Are you are you are you
Are you are you are you
Are you are you are you
Are you are you are you
(Everybody everybody in)
(Ooh ooh ooh)

You ooh
Are you in?
You ooh
Ooh

Só uma palavra - LEGO.

Muito bom.

Fell in love with a Girl - The White Stripes

Fell in love with a girl
fell in love once and almost completely
she's in love with the world
but sometimes these feelings
can be so misleading
she turns and says "are you alright?"
I said "I must be fine cause my heart's still beating"
She says "come and kiss me by the riverside,
bobby says it's fine he don't consider it cheating"

Red hair with a curl
mellow roll for the flavor
and the eyes for peeping
can't keep away from the girl
these two sides of my brain
need to have a meeting
can't think of anything to do
my left brain knows that
all love is fleeting
she's just looking for something new
and I said it once before
but it bears repeating

O vídeo desta música é um pouco enervante... mas até acaba bem.
A música é interessante.

Away from the Sun - 3 Doors Down.

It's down to this
I've got to make this life make sense
Can anyone do what I've done
I missed life
I missed the colours of the world
Can anyone go where I am

'Cause now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun again
Away from the sun again

I'm over this
I'm tired of living in the dark
Can anyone see me down here
The feeling's gone
There's nothing left to lift me up
Back into the world I've known

'Cause now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from me
To find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
I'm so far down, away from the sun again

It's down to this
I've got to make this life make sense
And now I can't do what I've done

And now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from me

'Cause now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from me
To find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
I'm so far down, away from the sun again

Este vídeo não vos lembra o "TRON", o filme de 1982, realizado por Steven Lisberger?

É, a imdb é amiga...

12:51 - The Strokes

Talk to me now I'm older
Your friend told you 'cause I told her
Friday nights have been lonely
Change your plans and then phone me.

We could go and get 40s
Fuck goin' to that party
Oh really, your folks are away now?
Alright, let's go, you convinced me.

12:51 is the time my voice
Found the words i sought...
Is it this stage I want?

The world is shutting out...for us.
We were tense for sure,
But we was confident...

Kiss me now that I'm older
I won't try to control you
Friday nights have been lonely
Take it slow but don't warn me

We'd go out and get 40s
Then we'd go to some party
Oh really, your folks are away now?
Alright I'm coming...

I'll be right there.

Esta banda escocesa tem vindo a aumentar a sua popularidade. E percebe-se porquê.
Quanto ao vídeo... há caminhos que não nos importamos de percorrer quando a meta vale a pena.

Open your eyes - Snow Patrol

All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you
My bones ache, my skin feels cold
And I'm getting so tired and so old

The anger swells in my guts
And I won't feel these slices and cuts
I want so much to open your eyes
Cos I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes [x4]

Get up, get out, get away from these liars
Cos they don't get your soul or your fire
Take my hand, knot your fingers through mine
And we'll walk from this dark room for the last time

Every minute from this minute now
We can do what we like anywhere
I want so much to open your eyes
Cos I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes [x8]

All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you


quarta-feira, 16 de maio de 2007

Dave Grohl, ex-baterista dos Nirvana, formou a banda em 1995. E deu nisto. Enjoy.

My Hero - Foo Fighters

Too alarming now to talk about
Take your pictures down and shake it out
Truth or consequence, say it aloud
Use that evidence, race it around

There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary

Don't the best of them bleed it out
While the rest of them peter out
Truth or consequence, say it aloud
Use that evidence, race it around

There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary

Kudos my hero leaving all the best
You know my hero, the one that's on

There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary

There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary


terça-feira, 15 de maio de 2007

Uma das minhas bandas favoritas... hoje acordei com esta música na cabeça. A letra é interessante. O vídeo está muito bom.

Until it sleeps - Metallica

Where do I take this pain of mine
I run but it stays right by my side

So tear me open and pour me out
There's things inside that scream and shout
And the pain still hates me
So hold me until it sleeps

Just like the curse, just like the stray
You feed it once and now it stays
Now it stays

So tear me open but beware
There's things inside without a care
And the dirt still stains me
So wash me until I'm clean

It grips you so hold me
It stains you so hold me
It hates you so hold me
It holds you so hold me
Until it sleeps

So tell me why you've chosen me
Don't want your grip
Don't want your greed
Don't want it

I'll tear me open make you gone
No more can you hurt anyone
And the fear still shakes me
So hold me, until it sleeps

It grips you so hold me
It stains you so hold me
It hates you so hold me
It holds you, holds you, holds you until it sleeps (x4)

I Don't want it want it want it want it want it
No

So tear me open but beware
There's things inside without a care
And the dirt still stains me
So wash me 'til I'm clean

I'll tear thee open make you gone
No longer will you hurt anyone
And the hate still shapes me
So hold me until it sleeps (x5)

segunda-feira, 14 de maio de 2007

Estes tipos são excelentes. Músicos muito experientes que se juntaram para este projecto, cada vez mais consistente. E o Slash fica sempre bem em qualquer música. Menos nas do TOY... acho eu.

Slither - Velvet Revolver

When you look you see right through me
Cut the rope, fell to my knees
Fallen, broken every single time

Always keep me under finger
That's the spot where you would (sue) me
Might see some type of pleasure in my mind

Yeah, here comes the water
It comes to wash away the sins of you and I
This time you see

When you seek me you destroy me
Rape my mind and smell the poppies
Born in blood in every single time

Always keep me under finger
That's the spot where you might linger
But I see some type of pleasure in my mind

Yeah, here comes the water
It comes to wash away the sins of you and I
This time you see
Like holy water
It only burns you faster than you'll ever dry
This time with me

When you look you see right through me
Cut the rope, fell to my knees
Fallen and broken
Every single time

Yeah, here comes the water
It comes to wash away the sins of you and I
This time you see
Like holy water
It only burns you faster than you'll ever dry
This time with me

Track 70 - not gonna crack.

Esta banda marcou o início do Grunge. O vocalista é e sempre será um ícone da música.

Lithium - Nirvana

I'm so happy.
Cause today I found my friends.
They're in my head. I'm so ugly. But that's ok.
'Cause so are you. We've broke our mirrors.
Sunday morning. Is everyday for all I care. And I'm not scared.
Light my candles. In a daze cause I've found god.

Yeah (x bunch of times)

I'm so lonely. And that's ok.
I shaved my head. And I'm not sad. And just maybe.
I'm to blame for all I've heard. And I'm not sure.
I'm so excited. I can't wait to meet you there.
And I don't care. I'm so horny. But that's ok. My will is good.

Yeah (x bunch of times)

(Chorus) I like it. I'm not gonna crack.
I miss you. I'm not gonna crack. I love you.
I'm not gonna crack. I kill you. I'm not gonna crack. (x2)

I'm so happy. Cause today I found my friends.
They're in my head. I'm so ugly. But that's ok.
'Cause so are you. We've broke our mirrors.
Sunday morning. Is everyday for all I care.
And I'm not scared. Light my candles.
In a daze cause I've found god.

Yeah (x bunch times)

(Chorus)..

sábado, 12 de maio de 2007

Esta banda é tida como sendo um pouco polémica, ao que parece os irmãos Gallagher não se dão assim tão bem quanto isso. Anyway, o melhor mesmo é não ligar a isso tudo e ouvir esta música, cuja letra, para além de estar bem conseguida, está ainda dotada de uma musicalidade interessante.

Don't look back in anger - Oasis

Slip inside the eye of your mind
Don't you know you might find
A better place to play
You said that you'd never been
But all the things that you've seen
Will slowly fade away

So I start a revolution from my bed
'Cause you said the brains I had went to my head
Step outside the summertime's in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace
Take that look from off your face
You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out

And so Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as we're walking on by
Her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger
I heard you say

Take me to the place where you go
Where nobody knows, if it's night or day.
Please don't put your life in the hands
Of a Rock 'n Roll band
Who'll throw it all away

I'm gonna start the revolution from my bed
'Cos you said the brains I had went to my head
Step outside 'cos summertime's in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace
Take that look from off your face
'Cos you ain't ever gonna burn my heart out

And so Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as she's walking on by.
My soul slides away, but don't look back in anger
I heard you say

So Sally can wait, she knows it's too late as we're walking on by
Her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger
I heard you say

And so Sally can wait, she knows it's too late and she's walking on by
My soul slides away, but don't look back in anger, don't look back in anger
I heard you say

At least not today.

Track 68 - Go lightly underground

Esta é uma das melhores bandas de sempre. Esta é apenas uma de um vasto repertório de músicas muito boas. O vídeo está interessante.

The Ground Beneath her feet - U2

All my life, I worshipped her.
Her golden voice, her beauty's beat.
How she made us feel, how she made me real.
And the ground beneath her feet.
And the ground beneath her feet.

And now I can't be sure of anything.
Black is white and cold is heat.
For what I worshipped stole my love away.
It was the ground beneath her feet.
It was the ground beneath her feet

Go lightly down your darkened way.
Go lightly underground. I'll be down there in another day.
I won't rest until you're found.
Let me love you, let me rescue you.
Let me bring you where two roads meet. Oh come back above.
Where there is only love. Only love...
Let me love you true, let me rescue you.
Let me bring you to where two roads meet

Let me love you true, let me rescue you.
Let me bring you to where two roads meet.

Ouvi esta música uma vez. Não será seguramente a última.
Tem de estar aqui.

Look after you - The Fray

If I don't say this now I will surely break
As I'm leaving the one I want to take
Forgive the urgency but hurry up and wait
My heart has started to separate

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Be my baby
Oh, oh, oh
I'll look after you

There now, steady love, so few come and don't go
Will you won't you, be the one I always know
When I'm losing my control, the city spins around
You're the only one who knows, you slow it down

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Be my baby
Oh, oh, oh
I'll look after you

If ever there was a doubt
My love she leans into me
This most assuredly counts
She says most assuredly

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Be my baby
I'll look after you

It's always have and never hold
You've begun to feel like home
What's mine is yours to leave or take
What's mine is yours to make your own

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Be my baby
Oh, oh, oh

Track 66 - pequenos nadas...

Um dos grandes poetas contemporâneos. Diz muita coisa que é verdade. Vale a pena ouvir.

Tás a ver - Gabriel o Pensador

Estás a ver o que eu estou a ver?
Estás a ver estás a perceber?
Estás a ouvir o que eu estou a dizer?
Estás a ouvir estás a perceber?

Eu tenho visto tanta coisa nesse meu caminho
Nessa nossa trilha que eu não ando sozinho
Tenho visto tanta coisa tanta cena
Mais impactante do que qualquer filme de cinema
E se milhares de filmes não traduzem nem reproduzem
A amplitude do que eu tenho visto

Não vou mentir pra mim mesmo acreditando
Que uma música é capaz de expressar tudo isso
Não vou mentir pra mim mesmo acreditando
Mas eu preciso acreditar na comunicação
Mas eu preciso acreditar na...
Não há melhor antídoto pra solidão
E é por isso que eu não fico satisfeito
Em sentir o que eu sinto
Se o que eu sinto fica só no meu peito
Por mais que eu seja egoísta
Aprendi a dividir as emoções e os seus efeitos
Sei que o mundo é um novelo uma só corrente
Posso vê-lo por seus belos elos transparentes
Mudam cores e valores mas tá tudo junto
Por mais que eu saiba eu ainda pergunto

Tás a ver a vida como ela é?
Tás a ver a vida como tem que ser?
Tás a ver a vida como agente quer?
Tás a ver a vida é pra gente viver?

Nossa vida é feita
De pequenos nadas

Tás a ver a linha do horizonte?
A levitar, a evitar que o céu se desmonte
Foi seguindo essa linha que notei que o mar
Na verdade é uma ponte
Atravessei e fui a outros litorais
E no começo eu reparei nas diferenças
Mas com o tempo eu percebi
E cada vez percebo mais
Como as vidas são iguais
Muito mais do que se pensa
Mudam as caras
Mas todas podem ter as mesmas expressões
Mudam as línguas mas todas têm
Suas palavras carinhosas e os seus calões
As orações e os deuses também variam
Mas o alívio que eles trazem vem do mesmo lugar
Mudam os olhos e tudo que eles olham
Mas quando molham todos olham com o mesmo olhar
Seja onde for uma lágrima de dor
Tem apenas um sabor e uma única aparência
A palavra saudade só existe em português
Mas nunca faltam nomes se o assunto é ausência
A solidão apavora mas a nova amizade encoraja
E é por isso que agente viaja
Procurando um reencontro uma descoberta
Que compense a nossa mais recente despedida
Nosso peito muitas às vezes aperta
Nossa rota é incerta
Mas o que não é incerto na vida?

Tás a ver a vida como ela é?
Tás a ver a vida como tem que ser?
Tás a ver a vida como a gente quer?
Tás a ver a vida é pra gente viver?

Nossa vida é feita
De pequenos nadas

A vida é feita de pequenos nadas
Que agente saboreia, mas não dá valor
Um pensamento, uma palavra, uma risada
Uma noite enluarada ou um sol a se pôr
Um bom dia, um boa tarde, um por favor
Simpatia é quase amor
Uma luz acendendo, uma barriga crescendo
Uma criança nascendo, obrigado senhor
Seja lá quem for o senhor
Seja lá quem for a senhora
A quem quiser me ouvir e a mim mesmo
Preciso dizer tudo que eu estou dizendo agora
Preciso acreditar na comunicação
Não há melhor antídoto pra solidão
E é por isso que eu não fico satisfeito em sentir o que eu sinto
Se o que sinto fica só no meu peito
Por mais que eu seja egoísta
Aprendi a dividir minhas derrotas e minhas conquistas
Nada disso me pertence
É tudo temporário no tapete voador do calendário
Já que temos forças pra somar e dividir
Enquanto estivermos aqui
Se me ouvires cantando, canta comigo
Se me vires chorando, sorri

Tás a ver a vida como ela é?
Tás a ver a vida como tem que ser?
Tás a ver a vida como a gente quer?
Tás a ver a vida é pra gente viver?

Nossa vida é feita
De pequenos nadas

Track 65 - Black flowers blossom

Esta música traz-me o que eu preciso neste momento. Paz.

Teardrop - Massive Attack

Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes me makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

Nine night of matter
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

Water is my eye
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire of a confession
Fearless on my breath
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

Stumbling a little
Stumbling a little

O nome principal do Reggae... de sempre, e para sempre. A letra está excelente.

Redemption Song - Bob Marley

Old pirates yes they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I from the
Bottomless pit

But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the almighty
We forward in this generation
triumphantly

All I ever had is songs of freedom
Won't you help to sing these songs of freedom
Cause all I ever had redemption songs, redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfill the book

Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom
Cause all I ever had, redemption songs, redemption songs, redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look
Yes some say it's just part of it
We've got to fulfill the book

Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom
Cause all I ever had, redemption songs
All I ever had, redemption songs
These songs of freedom, songs of freedom

A voz principal da banda Silence 4, agora num projecto a solo. Consistentemente genial. O pormenor do sintetizador nesta música faz toda a diferença. Infelizmente não encontrei o vídeo oficial da música, fica aqui uma versão ao vivo.

Vai estar presente na segunda noite da Queima das Fitas do Porto, ou seja, hoje.

The 80's - David Fonseca

You saw me sitting in the corner
And you just sat there right next to me
You asked me - "are you feeling lonely?" -
Well loneliness is just a word, you see

I came in here just for the music
For all the things that it makes me feel
I came to exorcise my demons
To bury those days when only pain was real

Treat me right
My dreams will come true tonight
Come with me
Set me free
We'll be alright

I should have met you in the 80's
Back when I was the dance floor queen
Maybe you think that I'm too old for dancing
You should have met when I was sixteen

Dance! You know what I mean
Dance! Like you were sixteen

Hey! Hey! Hey!

Tonight I'm drinking myself sober
'Till I see what I want to see
A few more drinks and you'll be the perfect lover
You will be the one that I truly believe

That is right
My dreams will come true tonight
Come with me
Set me free
We'll be alright

I should have met you in the 80's
Back when I was the dance floor queen
Maybe you think that I'm too old for dancing
You should have met me when I was sixteen

Dance! Like I was sixteen
Dance! You know what I mean

Hey! Hey! Hey!

I should have met you in the 80's
Back when I was the dance floor queen
Maybe you think that I'm too old for dancing
You should have met me, I should have kissed you

I should have kissed you in the 80's
Back when I was young and free
Maybe you think that I'm too old for loving
Tonight I'll make love me

Dance! Like you were sixteen
Dance! You know what I mean

Dance! Like you were sixteen
Dance! You know what I mean

Dance! I will set me free
Dance! Like I was sixteen

Estes tipos são uns verdadeiro "malucos". Sempre com um visual excêntrico e um "power" impressionante em palco. Um exemplo de boa música portuguesa.

Vão estar presentes na primeira noite da Queima das Fitas do Porto, ou seja, hoje. Enjoy.

Are you ready - Blasted Mechanism

Now I know the meaning.

I am ready!
This is the finest I can be.
Are you ready?

I trade now my crown for your kiss...
Are you ready?
Let's put a record on, and dance the world.

I am ready! I am ready for you....
Are you ready? Are you ready for me?

We are ready! We are ready for love...
Are you ready? Are you ready for it?

I'll take you to that special place,
Were your sparkling beauty intensifies,
And no living man will steal the shine,
From the deep blue of your eyes.

I am ready! I am ready for you....
Are you ready? Are you ready for me?

We are ready! We are ready for love...
Are you ready? Are you ready for it?

Esta banda tem história... a música é um reflexão sobre a guerra civil espanhola... o verdadeiro serviço público. Vale a pena ouvir.

If you tolerate this your children will be next - Manic Street Preachers

The future teaches you to be alone
The present to be afraid and cold
So if I can shoot rabbits
Then I can shoot fascists

Bullets for your brain today
But we'll forget it all again
Monuments put from pen to paper
Turns me into a gutless wonder

And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Will be next

Gravity keeps my head down
Or is it maybe shame
At being so young and being so vain

Holes in your head today
But I'm a pacifist
I've walked La Ramblas
But not with real intent

And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Will be next

And on the street tonight an old man plays
With newspaper cuttings of his glory days

And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Will be next

Para continuar com a onda de música mais "levezinha", os grandes System of a Down... a bateria inicial é, em duas palavras, excelente (a outra fica ao vosso cargo).

Toxicity - System of a Down

Conversion, software version 7.0,
Looking at life through the eyes of a tire hub,
Eating seeds as a past time activity,
The toxicity of our city, of our city,

New, what do you own the world?
How do you own disorder, disorder,
Now, somewhere between the sacred silence,
Sacred silence and sleep,
Somewhere, between the sacred silence and sleep,
Disorder, disorder, disorder.

More wood for their fires, loud neighbors,
Flashlight reveries caught in the headlights of a truck,
Eating seeds as a past time activity,
The toxicity of our city, of our city,

New, what do you own the world?
How do you own disorder, disorder,
Now, somewhere between the sacred silence,
Sacred silence and sleep,
Somewhere, between the sacred silence and sleep,
Disorder, disorder, disorder.

New, what do you own the world?
How do you own disorder, disorder,
Now, somewhere between the sacred silence,
Sacred silence and sleep,
Somewhere, between the sacred silence and sleep,
Disorder, disorder, disorder.

When I became the sun,
I shone life into the man's hearts,
When I became the sun,
I shone life into the man's hearts.

Oh, que se lixe. Esta também é verdadeiramente excelente e o vídeo está muito bom, vale a pena ver.

Greedy Fly - Bush

Do you feel the way you hate
Do you hate the way you feel
Always closest to the flame
Ever closer to the blade

I am poison crazy lush
Built these hands to lift me up
We are servants to our formulaic ways

I'm s c r e a m i n g s d a i s i e s
From 14 miles away
I've got my own time
Got it all today

Make up your mind
I need some help
To find this mind

Limbo this and limbo that
You were this and you were that
Ever know that what you fear is what you find
This Indian summer
I signed my life away
There's a greedy fly in here
And I fly away (need some help)

Make up your mind
I need some help
To find this mind
...

Estava para pôr cinco ou seis músicas desta banda hoje... mas depois ficava sem ter nenhumas para os outros dias...

Letting the Cables Sleep - Bush

You in the dark
You in the pain
You on the run
Living a hell
Living your ghost
Living your end
Never seem to get in the place that I belong
Dont wanna lose the time
Lose the time to come

Whatever you say its alright
Whatever you do its all good
Whatever you say its alright
Silence is not the way
We need to talk about it
If heaven is on the way
If heaven is on the way

You in the sea
On a decline
Breaking the waves
Watching the lights go down
Letting the cables sleep

Whatever you say its alright
Whatever you do its all good
Whatever you say its alright
Silence is not the way
We need to talk about it
If heaven is on the way
We'll wrap the world around it
If heaven is on the way
If heaven is on the way

Im a stranger in this town
Im a stranger in this town

If heaven is on the way
If heaven is on the way
Im a stranger in this town
Im a stranger in this town

Track 57 - The World is a Vampire

Esta música tem um "power" impressionante. Obrigatório ouvir.

Bullet with butterfly wings - The Smashing Pumpkins

The world is a vampire, sent to drain
Secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames
And what do I get for my pain?
Betrayed desires, and a piece of the game

(chorus)
Even though I know - I suppose Ill show
All my cool and cold-like old job
Despite all my rage Im still just a rat in a cage (2x)
Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Despite all my rage Im still just a rat in a cage

Now Im naked, nothing but an animal
But can you fake it, for just one more show?
And what do you want, I want to change
And what have you got when you feel the same

(chorus)

(chorus 2)
Tell me Im the only one
Tell me theres no other one
Jesus was an only son
Tell me Im the chosen one
Jesus was an only son for you

(chorus)
(chorus 2)

Despite all my rage Im still just a rat in a cage
Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Despite all my rage Im still just a rat in a cage
And I still believe that I cannot be saved
