Feist - The Limit To Your Love


En “Limit To Your Love” Blake despoja de sus notas a la canción de Feist, arropándose únicamente en el piano y su voz, que cubre la canción como una sábana arrugada en capas sobre la letra. Con unas mínimas bases rítmicas muy marcadas y potentes, que dan el efecto de hacer temblar los oídos al escucharlas.
Un homenaje al ritmo pausado, frente a lo frenético de la música actual, un verdadero homenaje al silencio.

BANNERS - Got It In You

 

Holding back the flood in this skyscraper town
You gave all that sweat and blood
Now you think you're gonna drown
You can't tell that you're bigger than the sea that you're sinking in
And you don't know what you got
But you got it at your fingertips
Ooh, you got it in you
Ooh, you got it in you
When the lights go out and leave you standing in the dark
No one ever told you this would be so hard
I know you think your fire is burning out
But I still see you shining through
You got it in you
Not everything you hear should sound like the truth
'Cause nobody else's words can define you
Maybe you don't see it but you're quicker than the world can spin
You don't know what you got
But you got it at your fingertips
Ooh, you got it in you
Ooh, you got it in you
When the lights go out and leave you standing in the dark
No one ever told you this would be so hard
I know you think your fire is burning out
But I still see you shining through
You got it in you
You got it in you
When the lights go out and leave you standing in the dark
No one ever told you this would be so hard
I know you think your fire is burning out
But I still see you shining through
You got it in you
You got it in you
You got it in you

The Irrepressibles - In This Shirt

 

I am lost in a rainbow
Now our rainbow is gone
Overcast by your shadow
As our worlds move on

In this shirt I can be you
To be near you for a while
In this shirt I can be you
To be near you for a while

There's a crane knocking down
All these things that we were
I awake in the night
To hear the engines pout

There's a pain, it does ripple
Through my frame, makes me lame
There's a thorn in my side
It's the shame, it's the prize

Of you and me, ever changing
Moving on now, moving fast
And this touch must be wanting
Must become through your ask

But I mean dare to tell you
That I love you - it never ends
And I bled everyday now
For a year, for a year

I did send you a note
On the wind for to read
Our names there together
Must've fallen like the sea

To the depths of the soil
Buried deep in the ground
On the wind I can hear you
Call my name, held the sound

I am lost
I am lost in a rainbow
Now our rainbow is gone
I am lost in a rainbow
Now our rainbow is gone

I am lost, I am lost
I am lost, I am lost
I am lost, I am lost

Antonio Vega - Romance de Curro "El Palmo"

 


La vida y la muerte
Bordada en la boca
Tenía merceditas
La del guardarropa
La del guardarropa
Del tablao del "lacio"
Un gitano falso
Ex-bufón de palacio
Alcahuete noble
Que al oír los tiros
Recogió sus capas
Y se pegó el piro
Se acabó el jaleo
Y el racionamiento
Le llenó el bolsillo
Y montó este invento
En donde "el palmo"
Lloró cantando

Ay, mi amor
Sin ti no entiendo el despertar
Ay, mi amor
Sin ti mi cama es ancha
Ay, mi amor
Que me desvela la verdad
Entre tú y yo, la soledad
Y un manojillo de escarcha

Mil veces le pide
Y mil veces que "nones"
De compartir sueños
Cama y macarrones
Le dice burlona
"carita gitana
Cómo hacer buen vino
De una cepa enana"

Y curro se muerde
Los labios y calla
Pues no hizo la mili
Por no dar la talla
Y quien calla, otorga
Como dice el dicho
Y curro se muere
Por ese mal bicho

¡ay! quién fuese abrigo
Pa' andar contigo

Buscando el olvido
Se dio a la bebida
Al mus, las quinielas
Y en horas perdidas
Se leyó enterito
A don marcial la fuente
Por no ir tras su paso
Como un penitente

Y una noche, mientras
Palmeaba farrucas
Se escapó mercedes
Con un "curapupas"
De clínica propia
Y rolls de contrabando
Y entre palma y palma
Curro fue palmando

Entre cantares
Por soleares

Quizá fue la pena
O falta de hierro
El caso es que un día
Nos tocó ir de entierro
Pésames y flores
Y una lagrimita
Que dejó ir la patro
Al cerrar la cajita

A mano derecha
Según se va al cielo
Veréis un tablao
Que montó frascuelo
En donde cada noche
Pa' las buenas almas
El currito "el palmo"
Sigue dando palmas

Y canta sus males
Por "celestiales"

Megadeth - A Tout Le Monde

 

Don't remember where I was
I realized life was a game
The more seriously I took things
The harder the rules became
I had no idea what it'd cost
My life passed before my eyes
I found out how little I accomplished
All my plans denied

So as you read this, know, my friends
I'd love to stay with you all
Please smile when you think of me
My body's gone, that's all

A tout le monde
A tout mes amis
Je vous aime
Je dois partir
These are the last words
I'll ever speak
And they'll set me free

If my heart was still alive
I know it would surely break
And my memories left with you
There's nothing more to say

Moving on is a simple thing
What it leaves behind is hard
You know the sleeping feel no more pain
And the living are scarred

A tout le monde
A tout mes amis
Je vous aime
Je dois partir
These are the last words
I'll ever speak
And they'll set me free

(So as you read this, know, my friends
I'd love to stay with you all
Please smile, smile when you think about me
My body's gone, that's all)

(These are the last words
I'll ever speak
And they'll set me free)

SEVDALIZA - SHAHMARAN

 


I'd weigh a million pounds if you were gravity
I'd take a billion pills if they gave me sanity

Time has passed me by
Share my great advice
For granted, taken nice
Weigh a pit underneath the light

The force that perfect us
And all the affections
As they infect us, love couldn't help us
Ooh, you crawl underneath me

I'd die a million deaths, and you'd resurrect me
I'd fall a billion times, but you wouldn't let me
You wouldn't let me

The force that perfect us
And all the affections
As they infect us, love couldn't help us
Where would I go?
Where would I go?

Where would I go?
Where would I go?
Where would I go...?

Ooh
