ABC

Porque una fotocopia para rellenar huecos en mis clases de inglés... después del correspondiente vídeo de Muzzy... pudiera ser mi primer contacto con Michael Jackson

Incluso creo recordar palabras en mis mayúsculas ABC LOVE EASY 1 2 3 DO RE MI TEACHER GIRL SING CAN... me deshice hace poco de la carpeta de fotocopias de inglés que todavía rondaba por casa, hubiera venido bien para ilustrar esto, lástima.

Why won't you die

Why is everything so fucking hard for me? ... MUERTE Y DESTRUCCIÓN' TIME



You fell away
What more can I say
The feelings evolved
I won't let it out
I can't replace
Your screaming face
Feeling the sickness inside

Why won't you die?
Your Blood in mine
We'll be fine
Then your body will be mine

So many words
Can't describe my face
This feelings evolved
So soon to break out
I can't relate
To a happy state
Feeling the blood running side

Why won't you die?
Your Blood in mine
We'll be fine
Then your body will be mine

Why is everything so fuckin hard for me
Keep me down to what you seek I still beg
Must you tell me and provoke the ministrate
Keep on trying I'm not tight so weasel it

Why is everything so fuckin hard for me
Why is everything so fuckin hard for me

Why won't you die?
Your Blood in mine
We'll be fine
Then your body will be mine

Why won't you die?
Your Blood in mine
We'll be fine
Then your body will be mine

Where did it all go wrong

Porque Oasis siempre ha estado ahí... y por alguna razón nunca había llegado aquí

WHERE DID IT ALL GO WRONG - OASIS

You know that feeling you get
You feel your older than time
You aint exactly sure
If youve been away a while

Do you the reciepts
For the friends that you buy
And aint it bittersweet
Youre only just getting by

But I hope you know
That it wont let go
It sticks around with you until the day you die
And I hope you know
That its touch and go
I hope the tears dont stain the world that waits outside
Where did it all go wrong?

And until youve repaid
The dreams youve bought for your lies
Youll be cast away
Alone under stormy skies
Alone under stormy skies

But I hope you know
That it wont let go
It sticks around with you until the day you die
And I hope you know
That its touch and go
I hope the tears dont stain the world that waits outside
Where did it all go wrong?

But I hope you know
That it wont let go
It sticks around with you untill the day you die

And I hope you know
That its touch and go
I hope the tears dont stain the world that waits outside

But I hope you know
That it wont let go
It sticks around with you untill the day you die

And I hope you know
That its touch and go
I hope the tears dont stain the world that waits outside

Where did it all go wrong?

Como un fan

Porque a todos nos encanta el momento de enamorarnos... como un fan

COMO UN FAN - LA CASA AZUL


El vídeo oficial:



El vídeo en acústico y directo (sólo para los muy fans) con la explicación previa de Guille sobre enamorarse como un fan:



¿Qué quieres que te diga?

¿que mi vida va genial...?

¿que todo transcurre tal y como lo pensé...

tal cual sin más....?



¿Que todas mis decisiones

pasan por un autotune de aciertos...?



Qué más da... Si no lo vas a escuchar



¿Qué quieres que te diga?

¿que escogiste lo mejor...?

¿que ya no quedaba amor...?

¿que no me merecías porque eras lo peor?



¿que tengo mil ilusiones?

¿que ya no queda ni un gramo de pena?



Qué más da... Nunca supiste escuchar



¿Que quieres que te diga?

¿que el tiempo va a mejorar?

¿que el gobierno está fatal?

¿que el barça hoy ha vuelto a pinchar?



¿Qué quieres que te diga?

que sin ti no puedo más,

que mi vida se rompió cuando te fuiste sin pensar que...



Nunca, nunca más me iba a recuperar

porque cuando tú jugabas yo creía

que lo que hacías era amar

y mientras,

yo me enamoraba como un fan

de tu voz, de tus amigos, de tu ropa

y de tu forma de mirar.



¿Qué quieres que te diga?

que prefiero pasear por la playa

y escuchar a billy joel o quizás a ben folds five

porque sé que tú los odiabas

no eran suficientemente indies

qué más da....

tú siempre fuiste lo más



¿Qué quieres que te diga?

que el trabajo no está mal

que cerraron el local donde solíamos tocar



¿Qué quieres que te diga?

que me arrancaste el corazón

y hoy se te ocurre venir a pedir perdón

después de un siglo o dos...

Under the gun

Leave the bourbon on the shelf.
And I'll drink it by myself.
I love you endlessly
but Pachá is so tiny
Brandon don't you see
I'm not satisfied.


UNDER THE GUN - THE KILLERS




She's got her halo and wings
Hidden under his eyes
But she's an angel for sure
She just can't stop telling lies
But it's too late for his love
Already caught in a trap
His angel's kiss was a joke
And she is not coming back

Because heaven sends and heaven takes
Crashing cars in his brain
Keep him tied up to a dream
And only she can set him free
And then he says to me

Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now
Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now

Yeah she's got a criminal mind
He's got a reason to pray
His life is under the gun
He's got to hold every day

Now he just wants to wake up
Yeah, just to prove it's a dream
Cause she's an angel for sure
But that remains to be seen

Because heaven sends and heaven takes
Crashing cars in his brain
Keep him tied up to a dream
And only she can set him free
And then he says to me

Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now
Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now

Stupid on the streets of London
James Dean in the rain
Without her it's not the same
The same, the same, but it's alright

Because heaven sends and heaven takes
Crashing cars in his brain
Keep him tied up to a dream
And only she can set him free
And then he says to me

Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now
Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now
Again and again

FAITH

Porque George Michael es más que el adolescente desgraciado de Arrested Development y tienes canciones e imágenes suyas que nunca vas a poder quitarte la cabeza, porque George Michael ha sido más que arrestos policiales y un look reconocible para varias generaciones... porque me da la gana poner esta canción, vamos

FAITH - GEORGE MICHAEL





Well I guess it would be nice
If I could touch your body
I know not everybody
Has got a body like you

But I've got to think twice
Before I give my heart away
And I know all the games you play
Because I play them too

Oh but I
Need some time off from that emotion
Time to pick my heart up off the floor
And when that love comes down
Without devotion
Well it takes a strong man baby
But I'm showing you the door

'Cause I gotta have faith...
Mmm, I gotta have faith
'Cause I gotta have faith, faith,
Mm 'cause I gotta have faith-a-faith-a-faith

Baby
I know you're asking me to stay
Sayin' please, please, please, don't go away
You say I'm giving you the blues
Maybe
You mean every word you say
Can't help but think of yesterday
And another who tied me down to loverboy rules

Before this river
Becomes an ocean
Before you throw my heart back on the floor
Oh baby I reconsider
My foolish notion
Well I need someone to hold me
But I'll wait for something more

Yes I've gotta have faith...
Mmm, I gotta have faith
'Cause I gotta have faith, faith, faith,
Mm 'cause I gotta have faith-a-faith-a-faith

martes

That's not my name

Porque así empezaron mis vacaciones de verano... y ahora las echo de menos una jartá


THE TING TINGS - THAT'S NOT MY NAME


Four letter word just to get me along
It's a difficulty and I'm biting on my tongue
I Keep stalling, keeping it together
People around I gotto find something to say
Holding back everyday the same
Don't wanna be a loner
Listen to me
I never say anything at all
So with nothing to consider they forget my name

They call me hell
They call me Stacey
They call me her
They call me Jane
That's not my name...
They call me quiet
But I'm a riot
Mary-Jo-Lisa
Always the same
That's not my name...

I miss the catch when they throw me the ball
I'm the last chick standing up against the wall
Keep falling, these heels that keep me boring
Getting glammed up and sitting on the fence
So alone all the time and I lock myself away
Listen to me
Thought I'm dressed up out 'n all
With everything considered they forget my name

They call me hell
They call me Stacey
They call me her
They call me Jane
That's not my name...
They call me quiet
But I'm a riot
Mary-Jo-Lisa
Always the same
That's not my name...

Are you calling me darling
Are you calling me bird...

INVENCIBLE

Porque podía haber sido sin duda una de las Cosas que Nunca Te Dije porque Acabo de Descubrirlo...
INVENCIBLE - MUSE



Follow through
Make your dreams come true
Don't give up the fight
You will be all right
Cause there's no one like you
In the universe

Don't be afraid
What your mind conceives
You should make a stand
Stand up for what you believe
And tonight we can truly say
Together we're invincible

And during the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please let's use this chance to
Turn things around
And tonight we can truly say
Together we're invincible

Do it on your own
Makes no difference to me
What you leave behind
What you choose to be
and whatever they say
Your soul's unbreakable

And during the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please let's use this chance to
Turn things around
And tonight we can truly say
Together we're invincible
Together we're invincible

And during the struggle
They will pull us down
Please, please let's use this chance to
Turn things around
And tonight we can truly say
Together we're invincible

Das Alles wär nie passiert

Porque anhelo un momento de sinrazón y un prosecco al que culpar sin culpa

ANNETT LOUISAN - DAS ALLES WÄR NIE PASSIERT





Nachts in die Badeanstalt
Und danach mit den Bullen aufs Revier
Der Kuss in der Schrankwand der Eltern
Ein Herz und zwei Namen im Furnier

Die ewige Blutsbrüderschaft
Und am nächsten Tag nicht mehr erkannt
Drei Stunden mit dem Taxi um dem Block
Weil ich den Fahrer so niedlich fand

Drei Mädels im Bayerntrikot
In der Südkurve vom HSV
Der ehrliche Brief an den Chef
Und das Engtanzen mit seiner Frau

Die alberne Anbagger-Wette
Im Urlaub und die Hochzeit danach
Latein als Leistungskurs
Diese Frisur und mein Plattenvertrag

Das alles wär nie passiert
Das alles wär nie passiert
Das alles wär nie passiert
Ohne Prosecco

Sonntagmorgen 17 Uhr 10
Es weckt mich das Telefon
Ich hab nichts als die Stiefel noch an
Meine Sinne sind nicht mehr synchron

Alles, was ich von gestern noch weiß
Ist wie ich in Ekstase geriet
Ich schrie: ”Auf die Revolution!
Reißt die Mucke auf - Das ist mein Lied!”

Der Freund auf dem Anrufbeantworter brüllt:
“Hey, was hast du genommen?”
Er sagt mein BH sei auf eBay
Wie bin ich nach hause gekommen?

Himmel, Arsch, wieso bin ich gepierct
Und was soll dieses Schlangen-Tattoo?
Wessen Zeug liegt auf meinem Bett
Und wer zum Teufel bist du?

Das alles wär nie passiert
Das alles wär nie passiert
Das alles wär nie passiert
Ohne Prosecco

Sixteen Tons

Porque un OP's mail me la ha recordado... Ddctd to her, faltaría más.

SIXTEEN TONS - TENNESSEE ERNIE FORD




Some people say a man is made outta mud
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
And the straw boss said "Well, a-bless my soul"

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion
Cain't no-a high-toned woman make me walk the line

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

If you see me comin', better step aside
A lotta men didn't, a lotta men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right one don't a-get you
Then the left one will

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

Home again

Porque estoy en casa otra vez... y blackmore's night me da paz


HOME AGAIN - BLACKMORE'S NIGHT




I've been many places
I've traveled 'round the world
Always on the search for something new
But what does it matter
When all the roads I've crossed
Always seem to return to you…

Old familiar faces
Everyone you meet
Following the ways of the land
Cobblestones and lanterns
Lining every street
Calling me to come home again

Dancing in the moonlight
Singing in the rain
Oh, it's good to be back home again
Laughing in the sunlight
Running down the lane
Oh, it's good to be back home again

When you play with fire
Sometimes you get burned
It happens when you take a chance or two
But time is never wasted
When you've lived and learned
And in time it comes back to you…

And when I got weary
I'd sit a while and rest
Memories invading my mind
All the things I'd treasured
The ones I'd loved the best
Were the things that I'd left behind…

WILD THING

It's awesome! Porque siempre termina cayéndome bien el que se une a canturrearla conmigo

WILD THING - THE TROGGS


Wild thing...you make my heart sing...
You make everything
Groovy
I said wild thing...

Wild thing, I think I love you
But I wanna know for sure
Come on, hold me tight
I love you

Wild thing...you make my heart sing...
You make everything
Groovy
I said wild thing...

Wild thing, I think you move me
But I wanna know for sure
So come on, hold me tight
You move me

DU HAST

Por la polémica de los estudiantes de alemán: ¿me odias o me tienes? (palabras homófonas en alemán). Y porque es la canción que me resuena en la cabeza cuando me enfado.

DU HAST - RAMMSTEIN



Du
Du hast
Du hast mich
Du hast mich gefragt
Du hast mich gefragt
Du hast mich gefragt
Und ich hab' nichts gesagt

Willst du bis der Tod euch scheidet
Treu ihr sein für alle Tage

Nein

Willst du bis zum Tod, der Scheide
Sie lieben auch in schlechten Tagen

El gallo Eduardo Montenegro

Porque saaaaan se acabó.



EL GALLO EDUARDO MONTENEGRO - ALBERT PLÁ


Los pajaritos cantan,
las nubes se levantan
las gallinas ponedoras
en vez de poner huevos
consuelan a un gallito desolado
pues como cada mañana
cuando fue a anunciar el día
el gallo se quedó sin habla
la voz no le salía
tenía una afonía y ni cacarear podía
por mucho que abriera el pico no le salía ni pío
¿cómo iba a empezar el día si su canto no se oía?
estaba convencido que el mundo se acabaría
así que San se acabó
el sol sólo saldrá
el día en que las gallinas
se pongan a mear
presta atención
a lo que este gallo afónico te quisiera decir
kikirikikí...
Los pajaritos cantan,
las nubes se levantan
y el mundo gira gira y gira
y el sol brilla brilla y brilla
creer que se detendría
porque un gallo padeciera una afonía
eso era una tontería
como esa que algunos hombres creen
que viven eternamente
que su alma sube al cielo
aunque su cuerpo haya muerto
¡como si en el firmamento
hubiera sitio para tantos!
San se acabó
lo único que sube al cielo
son los pedosque se tiran los gusanos
cuando comen sus despojos

Parecía el patito feo abandonando el gallinero
le despedían con pañuelos llorando sus gallinas
sin rumbo ni norte alguno
y errando se fue el gallo
hasta que un día muy cansado
se paró a dormir un poco
era el reposo del guerrero

Y en un bosque encantado
bajo un roble milenario
no hay futuro dijo el sabio
siguió preguntando en vano
¿quién puñeta fue primero?
¿fue la gallina o fue el huevo?
San se acabó
y el amanecer llegó y no se oyó cantar un gallo
ese día tan absurdo lo estaba anunciando un búho
presta atención
a lo que un burro cualquiera opinaría
sobre esta absurda cuestión
ay ay ay ay...

Los pajaritos callan
y es que era un búho que no cantaba
"hola gallo" dijo el búho
esto es un bosque encantado
soy el bicho que buscabas
yo soy quien despierta al sol cada mañana
al lobo vegetariano y al león republicano
y a todos los bichos raros
soy un búho yo soy brujo
¿te has fijado que cursi es la moraleja
del cuento de la lechera?

Aquí nada es como parece
aquí uno no nace aqui uno se hace
sin que nadie te lo mande
sólo se hace lo que place
¡atrévete si quieres
a no hacer nunca lo que debes!
San se acabó
aquí hay gallo encerrado
¿donde está el cuarto pié del gato?
más vale pregunta en mano
que cien respuestas volando
presta atención
yo sé cómo arreglar el mundo
ruego un poco de silencio
lo diré bien fuerte y claro ¡pero sólo una vez!
yo cantaré así o así o asá
como a mí me dé la gana cantar

Los pajaritos cantan
las nubes se levantan
¿en verdad quién fue primero?
¿la tortuga o el conejo?
¿existe realmente una gallina
que ponga los huevos de oro?
érase una vez un gallo
que sabía el final del cuento
que fueron muy felices, que comieron perdices
a mí me importa un pito
si el mundo funciona a pilas
con butano o gasolina

Es doloroso ser sabio
y descubrir la sopa de ajo
apartó un árbol enorme
y por fin pudo ver el bosque
y yo lo que quiero es largarme
con la música a otra parte
San se acabó
los músicos de bremen han sido asesinados
el burro, el perro, el gato
y el cádaver del gallo
aún nadie lo ha encontrado
presta atención
sabes tú qué pasaría
si el viento y el agua
y toas las cosas transparentes
de repente
tuvieran color...

You give love a bad name

Porque esta canción me ha sacado una carcajada en una de esas semanas horribles donde el dolor de cabeza es el menor de tus problemas...

It's going to be legendary! by Barney (el verdadero protagonista de How I meet your mother)

(Thanks to ozk to talk me about this)

YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME - BON JOVI




An angels smile is what you sell
You promise me heaven, then put me through hell
Chains of love got a hold on me
When passions a prison, you cant break free

Youre a loaded gun
Theres nowhere to run
No one can save me
The damage is done

Chorus:
Shot through the heart
And youre to blame
You give love a bad name
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name
You give love a bad name

Paint your smile on your lips
Blood red nails on your fingertips
A school boys dream, you act so shy
Your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye

Youre a loaded gun
Theres nowhere to run
No one can save me
The damage is done

DOWNTOWN

Porque esta canción representa para mí la clave de Lost y todo lostmaníaco no necesita ni las tres primeras notas para reconocerla... y porque aunque lost te la traiga al pairo, la canción te anima, y somos muchos los que necesitamos ánimos estos días.

PETULA CLARK - DOWNTOWN

- ahórrate spoilers escuchándola -




- Porque yo no me hago responsable de los spoilers que este vídeo suponga para ti -



When you're alone
And life is making you lonely
you can always go down town.
When you got worries,
All the noise and the hurry
seems to help,
I know down town.
Just listen to the music
Of the traffic in the city,
linger on the sidewalks
Where the neon signs are pretty.
How can you lose?
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles,
Forget all your cares.
So go down town.
Things'll be great
When you're down town.
No finer place for sure-
Down town.
Everything's waiting for you
Down town.
Don't hang around
And let your problems surround you,
there are movie shows down town.
Maybe you know some little places to go
to where they never close down town.
Just listen to the rhythm
Of a gentle bossa nova.
You'll be dancing with 'em too
Before the night is over happy again.
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles,
Forget all your cares.
So go down town.
Where all the lights are bright
Down town.
Waiting for you tonight
Down town.
You're gonna be alright now
Down town.
When you're alone
And life is making you lonely
you can always go down town.
When you got worries,
All the noise and the hurry
seems to help,
I know down town.
And you may find somebody kind-
To help and understand you,
someone who is just like you
And needs a gentle hand
To guide them along.
So maybe I'll see you.
There we can forget all our troubles,
Forget all our cares.
So go down town.
Things'll be great when you're
Down town.
Don't wait a minute more
Down town.
Everything's waiting for you
Down town.

No más myolastán

Porque ha resucitado mi vena poppy, porque a mí no me parece mal que vaya a Eurovisión, porque Guille Milkyway me cae bien y punto, porque ahora resulta de que mucho antes de que xalernita me la twitterdescubriese llevaba yo buscando al grupo de la canción final de Pocholo&Borjamari - cosas peores he visto- (Chicle cosmos) con infructuoso resultado (todo hay que decirlo), y porque sí, porque a mi contractura el myolastán le hizo ni fú ni fá...

NO MÁS MYOLASTÁN - LA CASA AZUL


Y la actuación en directo la coloco también, hale, porque es en el Auditorio de Murcia:



Me cortaron las alas,
con esmero y meticulosidad
Y me vistieron con un frac
A analizar, con tesón,
Las desgracias de los demás
Y a crear la solución
Y vendérsela aprisa
Y a mi, ¿quién me analiza?

No más Myolastan,
no más Doxilamina, no más
Hoy empieza mi nueva vida
Voy a cambiar el final, a volver a volar
(It’s your turn)

No más Myolastan,
no más Doxilamina, no más
Hoy empieza mi nueva vida
Voy a cambiar el final, a volver a volar
(Ya no hay nada que me lo impida)

Recibí condolencias,
expresiones de lástima y pesar
Y aún no lo entiendo la verdad
Si al final, un error
Nos trae la felicidad
Y un desliz la ocasión
Para hacer que en la vida
Haya más de una salida

Pueden pensar que si no me arrepiento
Al instante, un gran muro de cemento
Cerrará mi camino a las puertas del paraíso

U CAN'T TOUCH THIS

Ésta porque al encender por primera vez la tele nueva, expectante como tierna infante, lo primero que salió fue este vídeo... y le tengo cariño... a la anécdota, no a ;MC Hammer ; P

ENSI HAMMER - CAN'T TOUCH THIS


Can't touch this
Can’t touch this
Can't touch this
Can’t touch this

My, my, my, my music hits me so hard
Makes me say oh my Lord
Thank you for blessing me
With a mind to rhyme and two hyped feet
Feels good when you know you're down
A superdope homeboy from the Oaktown
And I'm known
as such
And this is a beat uh you can't touch

I told you homeboy,can't touch this
Yeah, that's how we livin' and ya know,
can't touch this
Look in my eyes man, can't touch this
Yo let me bust the funky lyrics, you can’t touch this

Fresh new kicks and pants
You got it like that now you know wanna dance
So move out of your seat
And get a fly girl and catch this beat
While it's rollin' hold on
Pump a little bit and let them know it's going on
Like that, like that
Cold on a mission so fall on back
Let 'em know that you're too much
And this is a beat uh they can't touch

Yo I told you, can't touch this
Why you standing there man, can't touch this
Yo sound the bell school is in sucker
, can't touch this

Give me a song or rhythm
Making no sweat that's what I'm giving 'em
So now they know
You talk about the Hammer when you’re talking ‘bout a show
That's hyped and tight
Singers are sweatin' so pass them a wipe
Or a tape to learn
What it's gonna take in the 90's to burn
The charts legit
Either work hard or you might as well quit


That's word because you know
Can't touch this
Can't touch this
Break it down!
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Stop! Hammer time!

Go with the flow it is said
If you can't move to this then you probably are dead
So wave your hands in the air
Bust a few moves run your fingers through your hair
This is it for a winner
Dance to this and you're gonna get thinner
Now move slide your rump
Just for a minute let's all do the bump

Bump bump bump yeah, you can't touch this
Look man, can't touch this
You'll probably get hyped boy 'cause you know you can't,can't touch this
Ring the bell school's back in, break it down!
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Stop! Hammer time!

Can't touch this
Can't touch this
Can't touch this
Break it down!
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Stop! Hammer time!

Every time you see me, that Hammer's just so hype
I'm dope on the floor and I'm magic on the mic
Now why would I ever stop doing this
With others makin' records that just don’t hit
I toured around the world from London to The Bay
It's Hammer go Hammer MC Hammer Yo Hammer and the rest can go and play

Can't touch this
Can't touch this
Can't touch this
Yea, Can't touch this
I told you, can't touch this
Too hype can't touch this
Get me outta here, you can't touch this

TESSIE

A mí me gusta más que el "a por ellos oe a por ellos oe"... contagia más espíritu ganador

Algo de historia sobre Tessie(en inglés) o sobre Dropkick Murphys (en español)

TESSIE - DROPKICK MURPHYS



Tessie is the Royal Rooters' rally cry
Tessie is the tune they always sung
Tessie echoed April through October nights
After serenading Stahl, Dineen and Young
Tessie is a maiden with the sparkling eyes
Tessie is a maiden with the love
She doesn't know the meaning of her sight
She's got a comment full of love


And sometimes when the game is on the line
Tessie always carried them away
Up the road from Third Base to Huntington
The boys will always sing and sway


Two! Three! Four!


"Tessie," "Nuff Ced" McGreevy shouted,
"We're not here to mess around
Boston, you know we love you madly
Hear the crowd roar to your sound
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Tessie, you are the only, only, only"


The Rooters showed up at the grounds one day
They found their seats had all been sold
McGreevey led the charge into the park
Stormed the gates and put the game on hold
The Rooters gave the other team a dreadful fright
Boston's tenth man could not be wrong
Up from "Third Base" to Huntington
They'd sing another victory song


Two! Three! Four!


"Tessie," "Nuff Ced" McGreevey shouted,
"We're not here to mess around
Boston, you know we love you madly
Hear the crowd roar to your sound
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Tessie, you are the only only only"


The Rooters gave the other team a dreadful fright
Boston's tenth man could not be wrong
Up from "Third Base" to Huntington
They'd sing another victory song


Two! Three! Four!


"Tessie," "Nuff Ced" McGreevey shouted
"We're not here to mess around
Boston, you know we love you madly
Hear the crowd roar to your sound
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Tessie, you are the only only only"


Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Boston, you are the only only only
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Red Sox, you are the only only only

AIN'T GOT NO - I GOT LIFE

Porque no conozco a nadie a quien no le guste esta canción




Ain't got no home, ain't got no shoes
Ain't got no money, ain't got no class
Ain't got no friends, ain't got no schoolin'
Ain't got no wear, ain't got no job
Ain't got no man



Ain't got no father, ain't got no mother
Ain't got no children, ain't got no
Ain't got no earth, ain't got no water
Ain't got no ticket, ain't got no token
Ain't got no love

I got my hair, I got my head
I got my brains, I got my ears
I got my eyes, I got my nose
I got my mouth, I got my smile

I got my tongue, I got my chin
I got my neck, I got my tits
I got my heart, I got my soul
I got my back, I got my sex

I got my arms, I got my hands
I got my fingers, Got my legs
I got my feet, I got my toes
I got my liver, Got my blood

Got life , I got my freedom
I got my life

Monochrome

Porque me recuerda que hay personas con varita mágica...





Anyway, I can try
Anything it's the same circle
That leads to nowhere and I'm tired now.

Anyway, I've lost my face,
My dignity, my look,
Everything is gone
And I'm tired now.

But don't be scared,
I found a good job and I go to work
Every day on my old bicycle you loved.

I am pilling up some unread books under my bed
And I really think I'll never read again.

No concentration,
Just a white disorder
Everywhere around me,
You know I'm so tired now.

But don't worry
I often go to dinners and parties
With some old friends who care for me,
Take me back home and stay.

Monochrome floors, monochrome walls,
Only absence near me,
Nothing but silence around me.
Monochrome flat, monochrome life,
Only absence near me,
Nothing but silence around me.

Sometimes I search an event
Or something to remind,
But I've really got nothing in mind.

Sometimes I open the windows
And listen people walking in the down streets.
There is a life out there.

But don't be scared,
I found a good job and I go to work
Every day on my old bicycle you loved.

Anyway, I can try
Anything it's the same circle
That leads to nowhere and I'm tired now.

Anyway, I've lost my face,
My dignity, my look,
Everything is gone
And I'm tired now.

But don't worry
I often go to dinners and parties
With some old friends who care for me,
Take me back home and stay.

Monochrome floors, monochrome walls,
Only absence near me,
Nothing but silence around me.

Monochrome flat, monochrome life,
Only absence near me,
Nothing but silence around me

El problema

El problema no fue hallarte... el problema es olvidarte

Porque para mí es lo mejor de Arjona



El problema no fue hallarte
El problema es olvidarte
El problema no es tu ausencia
El problema es que te espero
El problema no es problema
El problema es que me duele
El problema no es que mientas
El problema es que te creo.

El problema no es que juegues
El problema es que es conmigo
Si me gustastes por ser libre
Quien soy yo para cambiarte
Si me quedé queriendo solo
Como hacer para obligarte
El problema no es quererte
Es que tu no sientas lo mismo.

Y como deshacerme de ti si no te tengo
Como alejarme de ti si estas tan lejos
Como encontrarle una pestaña a lo que nunca tuvo ojos
Como encontrarle plataformas a lo que siempre fue un barranco
Como encontrar en la alacena los besos que no me diste
Y como deshacerme de ti si no te tengo
Como alejarme de ti si estas tan lejos
Y es que el problema no es cambiarte
El problema es que no quiero.

El problema no es que duela
El problema es que me gusta
El problema no es el daño
El problema son las huellas
El problema no es lo que haces
El problema es que lo olvido
El problema no es que digas
El problema es lo que callas.

Y como deshacerme de ti si no te tengo
Como alejarme de ti si estas tan lejos
Como encontrarle una pestaña a lo que nunca tuvo ojos
Como encontrarle plataformas a lo que siempre fue un barranco
Como encontrar en la alacena los besos que no me diste. (x2)

Y como deshacerme de ti si no te tengo
Como alejarme de ti si estas tan lejos
El problema no fue hallarte
El problema es olvidarte
El problema no es que mientas
El problema es que te creo
El problema no es cambiarte
El problema es que no quiero
El problema no es quererte
Es que tu no sientas lo mismo
El problema no es que juegues
El problema es que es conmigo.

Countdown to Insanity

Porque una opositora siempre sabe que pasa cuando empieza la cuenta atrás hacia la locura (unas semanas antes del examen, por ejemplo)


HANDS
ON

VERSE
This is a countdown I´m planning to leave
I´m heading out of this town I´m sick of the beef
I been wandering too long before it gets bad
I´m packing my memories and it´s time to

Move on cruise on, maybe in the wrong direction
Baby I´ll be – hands on the steering wheel

BRIDGE
It´s too late – it´s too fake
But I´ve got nothing to lose
Check mate – no hate
Hell I´ve got nothing to prove

CHORUS
6...5...one chance to stay alive
4...3...but i can hardly breathe
countdown to insanity
goodbye reality
2...1...tic toc
let's go

VERSE
If your problems are homegrown, it´s time to cut back
Turn off your cell phone come joining the pack
Get out of your mad routine a change is to come
Life is a solitaire so you´ve got to

BRIDGE

CHORUS

I SURRENDER

Porque me encanta The Rainbow... y porque me encanta esta canción...




I surrender to your heart babe
do anything that you want me to do
please be tender I'm in your hands girl
this is a feeling I never knew
you know I tried to make it on my own
that's not the way it was meant to be
spend my time waiting by the phone
oh darling come back to me

I surrender, I surrender
I'm giving up the role of pretender
oh be tender, girl be tender
can't you feel the love that I send you
I surrender.

I remember, seems like a lifetime
can't believe it's a matter of days
since you left I'm near to heartbreak
I want you so bad don't turn away
what does it take to stay by my side
you know I'll do what you want me to
don't take away this feeling inside
I'm still in love with you

I surrender, I surrender
I'm giving up the role of pretender
oh be tender, girl be tender
can't you feel the love that I send you
I surrender.

I surrender, I surrender
darling now won't you be tender
surrender, oh surrender
feel the love that I send you
I surrender.

Can't get it right today

Porque hoy me siento así de hundida (Y también siento no haber encontrado otro video que no fuesen los de "Al salir del Hospital")



I just can't seem to get it right today
I just can't seem to get it right today
I just can't seem to get it right today
I guess I'm gonna give up
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up

It's nearly been a year since he's been gone
And we still sing his goodbye songs
Goodness knows she should move on
But she just can't let him go
No, she just can't let him go

I'm sorry if I made you want to cry
I'm sorry if I made you want to cry
You should know, I never meant to hide
I just hate bringing you down
Oh, I just hate bringing you down

I just can't seem to get it right today
I just can't seem to get it right today
I just can't seem to get it right today
I guess I'm gonna give up
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up

And I dropped my paintbrush in the dirt
Still remember just how much that hurt
I cut my hand and wait for it to work
But I just couldn't bring him back
No, I just couldn't bring him back

I just can't seem to get it right today
Oh, I just can't seem to get it right today
I just can't seem to get it right today
I guess I'm gonna give up
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up
Oh I guess I'm gonna give up
Oh I guess I'm gonna give up
Oh I guess I'm gonna give up
Oh I guess I'm gonna give up
Oh Lord I said I guess I'm gonna give up
Oh Lord I said I guess I'm gonna give up

Rehab

Canciones que te enganchan de nuevas promesas...

REHAB - AMY WINEHOUSE


They tried to make me go to rehab
I said no, no, no.
Yes I been black, but when I come back
You wont know, know, know.

I ain’t got the time
And if my daddy thinks im fine
He’s tried to make me go to rehab
I wont go, go, go.

I’d rather be at home with ray
I ain’t got 70 days
Cos there’s nothing, nothing you can teach me
That I can’t learn, from yester halfaway

Didn’t get a lot in class
But I know it don’t come in a shot glass

They’re tryin to make me go to rehab
I said no, no, no
Yes I been black, but when I come back
You wont know, know, know.

I aint got the time,
And if my Daddy thinks im fine,
He’s tried to make me go to rehab,
I wont go, go, go.

The man said, why you think you here?

I said, I got no idea
Im gonna, im gonna loose my baby
So I always keep a bottle near

Said, I just think you’re depressed
Kiss me, yeah baby
And the rest
[these lyrics are found on http://www.songlyrics.com]

I’m tryin to make me go to rehab
I said no, no, no
Yes I been black, but when I come back
You wont know, know, know

I don’t ever wanna drink again
I just, ooo, I just need a friend
Im not gonna spend 10 weeks
Have everyone think im on the mend

It’s not just my pride
It’s just til these tears have dried

They’re tryin to make me go to rehab
I said no, no, no
Yes I been black, but when I come back,
You wont know, know, know

I aint got the time,
And if my daddy thinks im fine
He’s trying to make me go to rehab
I wont go, go, go.
