Pet Shop Boys - Rent

Me estoy pensando en alquilar mi espacio...

El anuncio (al más puro estilo de mi querida V de Tierra) sería así : "Hombre constante, orgulloso del fruto de su trabajo, con miras a retomar la empresa después de aclarar ideas y descansar este verano, alquila espacio blogueril a aquel que no se atreva a comenzar uno suyo propio. Aseguro visitas, amigos, comentarios y un montón de Span de productos varios. Sólo pido, se me rieguen las canciones, ser ingenioso en los textos, poner sones de calidad y no abusar de los estereotipos y formulas hechas. Abstenerse amantes de las canciones del veranoy de las radioformulas".

Lo cierto que estoy más liado de lo que esperaba, y eso me imposibilita actualizar todo lo que quierea, visitaros a todos y demás...pero que estoy...de verdad. Esos si, en unos días cerrare la persiana por vacaciones....pero que estoy y que volveré...palabrita de Chapulín.

El tema : Un recuerdo de uno de los discos que más cariño tengo de los ochenta. Si mirais fijamente su portada...bostezais.



"You dress me up, I'm your puppet
You buy me things, I love it
You bring me food, I need it
You give me love, I feed it

And look at the two of us in sympathy
With everything we see
I never want anything, it's easy
You buy whatever I need

But look at my hopes, look at my dreams
The currency we've spent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent

You phone me in the evening on hearsay
And bought me caviar
You took me to a restaurant off Broadway
To tell me who you are

We never-ever argue, we never calculate
The currency we've spent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent

I'm your puppet
I love it

And look at the two of us in sympathy
And sometimes ecstasy
Words mean so little, and money less
When you're lying next to me

But look at my hopes, look at my dreams
The currency we've spent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) Ooh, I love you, you pay my rent

Look at my hopes, look at my dreams
The currency we've spent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent

Look at my hopes, look at my dreams
The currency we've spent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent (It's easy, it's so easy)
(Ooooh) You pay my rent (It's easy, it's so easy)
(Ooooh) You pay my rent (It's easy, it's so easy)
(Ooooh) I love you (It's easy, it's so easy)
(It's easy, it's so easy)
(It's easy, it's so easy)
(It's easy, it's so easy)
(It's easy, it's so easy)
(It's easy, it's so easy)
(It's easy, it's so easy) "

The Beach Boys - Don't Worry Baby

Siempre lo digo...el verano no es verano sin ellos...

No sé, es llegar el período estival, los calores, las cervecitas con limón, el olor a crema solar, y me apetece desenpolvar sus discos...esas vocalicas interpretaciones del verano, del surf, de las playas, las olas, los sentimientos amoriles de estío...no te preocupes baby...

A que molan?



"Well its been building up inside of me
For oh I don't know how long
I don't know why
But I keep thinking
Something's bound to go wrong

But she looks in my eyes
And makes me realize
And she says "Don't worry baby"
Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby
Everything will turn out alright

Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby

I guess I should've kept my mouth shut
When I started to brag about my car
But I can't back down now because
I pushed the other guys too far

She makes me come alive
And makes me wanna drive
When she says "Don't worry baby"
Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby
Everything will turn out alright

Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby

She told me "Baby, when you race today
Just take along my love with you
And if you knew how much I loved you
Baby nothing could go wrong with you"

Oh what she does to me
When she makes love to me
And she says "Don't worry baby"
Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby
Everything will turn out alright

Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby
Don't worry baby"

The Cure - Lovesong

Relativicemos...ocupemonos solo del amor...

Porque al final pasan los días, pasan las horas y nuestras mentes estan afanadas en captar, en pensar, en elaborar, en diseñar, en trazar, en combatir, en aguantar,...y agotan nuestras energias vanamente...relativiza...consume menos tiempo en pensar en aquello que te derrumba, que te agobia, que te sume en la apatia...reservales un 10% del total, y aun me parece mucho...

ama! Es lo único que gratifica...



"Whenever i'm alone with you,
you make me feel like i am home again.
whenever i'm alone with you,
you make me feel like i am whole again.
Whenever i'm alone with you,
you make me feel like i am young again.
whenever i'm alone with you,
you make me feel like i am fun again.
However far away,
i will always love you.
however long i stay,
i will always love you.
whatever words i say,
i will always love you;
i will always love you.
Whenever i'm alone with you,
you make me feel like i am free again.
whenever i'm alone with you,
you make me feel like i am clean again.
However far away,
i will always love you.
however long i stay,
i will always love you.
whatever words i say,
i will always love you;
i will always love you."

Russian Red - The sun, the trees

De como lourditas o la chica de la linda mirada se fue haciendo mayor...

La esencia permanece, los arreglos se notan y tiene otro aire...La primera escucha se me hizo rara. No era ese estilo desnudo y desprovisto de grandes arreglos del primer album, pero según lo vas paladeando degustas toques en el Bouquet acustico a años 60, a pop, a folk...Es como un vino que debes encontrar todos los matices. Fijaos por ejemplo en la canción que ha sacado de single (I hate but i Love you)...pasadlo por todas las papilas auditivas y encotrareis esencia a As time Goes by, de Locomotion, de All I have to do is dream...son como pequeñas gotas...es curioso...escuchadla...

Pero no es este tema al que dedico la entrada...pongamosle más ritmillo a este final de primavera...A ver que os parece...

P.D.Tengo la vista puesta en Septiembre...en cuanto al blog se refiere...no lo he abandonado...como veis estoy...agazapado!



"The sun fill the kitchen in my house
it's warm and cosy and it helps me breathe
and I wonder if you're making people laugh
'cause you're funny, you're funny

The trees out of my window dance
oh they do, dance with the wind
and I wonder why, I wonder why, I wonder why we are apart.
'Cause we're funny people, beautiful inside.

The sun, the trees, the moon, the sea
the clouds above hang over me
the sun, the trees, the moon, the sea...

The sea goes quiet when the night is dark
with the light reflected jump in from the sky
and I wonder if we'll see the moon walk by
'cause it's shining, it's shining
as it lights the shadows, see the moon walk by.

The sun, the trees, the moon, the sea..."

Mike Oldfield & Roger Chapman- Shadow on The Wall

Hay que aprender a vivir con las sombras...

Unas veces están en la pared, otras en el suelo, otras en un album de fotos, otras en los recuerdos...pero si hay sombra, ciertamente, hay algo que lo produce, algo real que se interpone entre el sol y los elementos donde se proyecta...

Miguelito campoviejo...ayyy(suspiro)...tela las sombras que teje en mi memoria, quizá sea por ello que en todo el tiempo de exsitencia de este blog no haya aparecido por aquí, y no es porque no se lo merezca, y no es porque no tenga temas inolvidables, no sólo los cantados, sino esos discos instrumentales que poblaron mi adolescencia (The complete, Amarock, Islands, Crises,...). Pero todo ello conlleva otra serie de evocaciones que muchas veces no me apetece rescatar..por ello, al aparecer este tema en mi ordenador, decidí emprender una cruzada contra las tinieblas, contras las sombras y dedicarles este tema....que no será el último...

Peazo voz la de Roger...chorretón armonico a la magistral composición de Mike...un acierto....el si que sabe...

Lenny Kravitz - Fly Away

ganas tengo de volar....

Mi mente ya no esta en este mundo...vuela a playas, a arenas, a olas, a lugares de remanso y paz, lejos del ruido urbanita y de los agobios laborales...me monto en la guitarra del Lenny y tiro millas...




"I wish that I could fly
Into the sky
So very high
Just like a dragonfly

I'd fly above the trees
Over the seas in all degrees
To anywhere I please

Oh I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah yeah yeah

Oh I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah yeah yeah

Let's go and see the stars
The Milky Way or even Mars
Where they could just be ours

Let's fade into the sun
Let your spirit fly
For we are one
Just for a little fun
Oh, oh, oh yeah !

I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah yeah yeah

I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah yeah yeah

I got to get away
Girl I got to get away
Oh oh oh yeah

I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah with you yeah yeah
Oh Yeah !

I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah with you yeah yeah
I got to get away

I want to get away (4x)
Yeah
I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah with you yeah yeah
Girl I got to get away

I want to get away (4x)
Yeah

I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah with you
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah"
