It had to be you

It must have been something lovers call fate
Kept me saying: "I have to wait"
I saw them all, just couldn't fall 'til we met

It had to be you, it had to be you

I wandered around, and finally found the somebody who
Could make me be true, could make me be blue
And even be glad, just to be sad thinking of you

Some others I've seen, might never be mean
Might never be cross, or try to be boss
But they wouldn't do
For nobody else, gave me a thrill with all your faults, I love you still
It had to be you, wonderful you
It had to be you

"It Had To Be You" (1924) Kahn & Jones, compositores, 1924)

Cree en lo mágico

...then you’ll see how the magic’s in the music and the music’s in me

Yeah, do you believe in magic
Yeah, believe in the magic of a young girl’s soul
Believe in the magic of rock and roll
Believe in the magic that can set you free
Ohh, talking ’bout magic
Do you believe like I believe
Do you believe in magic

Do you believe like I believe

The Lovin’ Spoonfol, "Do You Believe In Magic" (1966)

La magia de la música...
Y la de un cóctel de pastillas de lo más "fashion", que en plan conejillo de indias ha demostrado ser eficaz.
Es suerte, es magia, es yo qué sé, es cojonudo, y esta canción, también, es la que escucho ahora y mejor define mi estado de ánimo, para eso están los "Minutos musicales"... para tomarle el pulso a mi ánimo.

Galvanize (no te cortes, pulsa el botón)

(Don't hold back)
cuz you woke up in the morning with initiative to move,
so why make it harder

(Don't hold back)
If you think about it so many people do, be cool man, look smarter,

(Don't hold back)
and you shouldn't even care, about the losers in the air,
and their crooked stares,

(Don't hold back)
cuz there's a party over here, so you might aswell be here,
where the people care,

The world is holding back
the time has come to... (x3)

Galvanize,

(Don't hold back)
If you think about it too much you may stumble,
trip up fall on your face,

(Don't hold back)
You think it is time you get up fresh style
like a sit-up come on keep pace

(Don't hold back)
Put apprehension on the back burner,
let it sit, don't even get it lit,

(Don't hold back)
Get involved with the jam,
don't be a prick, hot chick

(Don't hold back)

The World

The World
The time has come to -
Push the button (x3)

Push the button

The World

My finger is on the button
My finger is on the button

My finger is on the button
Push the button

The time has come to...

Me odio cuando miento

http://www.goear.com/listen/a0085f1/Me-odio-cuando-miento-Fangoria

Y ahora me arrepiento
De no haber sabido aprovechar el momento
Y siento haber oído mi voz diciendo
Que no importa nada
Que son cosas de la vida
Que algún día lo olvidaríamos los dos

Me odio cuando miento

Nos despedimos despacio para alargar el momento
Siendo prudentes por no decir cobardes
Y apretando los dientes para no decir
Yo me quiero quedar aquí contigo

Carpe Diem...

Hola, adios

You say yes, I say no
You say stop and I say go go go, oh no
You say goodbye and I say hello
Hello hello
I don’t know why you say goodbye, I say hello
Hello hello

I don’t know why you say goodbye, I say hello

I have climbed highest mountain
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you

I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for

Road to Nowhere

http://www.goear.com/listen/38033dd/Road-to-Nowhere-Talking-Heads

Well we know where we’re going
But we don’t know where we’ve been
And we know what we’re knowing
But we can’t say what we’ve seen
And we’re not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out

We’re on a road to nowhere, come on inside

Talking Heads, "Road to nowhere" 1985

They call me Cuban Pete
I’m the King of the Rumba beat
When I play the marracas
I go chick-chicky-boom
chick-chicky-boom

Yes, Sir, I’m Cuban Pete
I’m the craze of my native street
when I start to dance
everything goes chick-chicky-boom
chick-chicky-boom

Jim Carrey en "The Mask" (1994)

Hay versión francesa: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=baF3X8AKeWU

Hey you

Hey you ! out there in the cold
Getting lonely, getting old, can you feel me
Hey you ! Standing in the aisles
With itchy feet and fading smiles, can you feel me
Hey you ! don’t help them to bury the light

Don’t give in without a fight.

Hey you ! out there on your own
sitting naked by the phone would you touch me
Hey you ! with your ear against the wall
Waiting for someone to call out would you touch me
Hey you ! would you help me to carry the stone

Open your heart, I’m coming home

But it was only a fantasy
The wall was too high as you can see
No matter how he tried he could not break free
And the worms ate into his brain.
Hey you ! out there on the road
Doing what you’re told, can you help me
Hey you ! out there beyond the wall
Breaking bottles in the hall, can you help me
Hey you ! don’t tell me there’s no hope at all

Together we stand, divided we fall.

. . .

Hey tu,
Allí afuera en el frío,
Quedándote solo, haciéndote viejo,
¿puedes sentirme?
Hey tu,
Parado en el pasillo
Con la picazón en tu pie y una sonrisa que se descolora
¿puedes sentirme?
Hey tu,
No les ayudes a enterrar la luz.
No te des por vencido sin luchar.
Hey tu,
Allí afuera solo,
Sentado desnudo en el teléfono
¿me tocarías?
Hey tu,
Con tu oído contra la pared,
Esperando a alguien a quien llamar
¿me tocarías?
Hey tu,
¿me ayudarías a cargar la piedra?
Abre tu corazón, estoy llegando a casa.
Pero era solo una fantasía.
La pared era demasiado alta, como ves.
No importa cómo lo intentase, no podía liberarse.
Y los gusanos se comieron su cerebro.
Hey tu,
Allí afuera en el camino,
Haciendo siempre lo que te dicen,
¿puedes ayudarme?
Hey tu,
Allí afuera más allá de la pared,
Rompiendo botellas en el pasillo,
¿puedes ayudarme?
Hey tu,
No me digas que no hay esperanza alguna.
Juntos aguantamos, divididos somos vencidos.

My ghost grows up

one dot, that’s on or off, defines what is and what is not, one dot
two dot, a pair of eyes, a voice, a touch, complete surprise, two dot

growing up, growing up,
looking for a place to live

my ghost likes to travel so far in the unknown
my ghost likes to travel so deep into your space

three dot, a trinity, a way to map the universe, three dot
four dot, is what will make a square, a bed to build on, it’s all there, four dot

creciendo, buscando un lugar para vivir... a mi alma le gusta volar lejos en lo desconocido, viajar a lo más hondo dentro de tu espacio...

We’re just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found? The same old fears.

Wish you were here

Pink Floyd
Wish you were here (1975)

Es una de mis canciones-fetiche. El texto completo:

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We’re just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have you found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

 

Somos dos almas perdidas nadando en una pecera, año tras año. ¿Qué hemos encontrado? Los mismos miedos antiguos. Ojalá estuvieses aquí.

I am...

MY SOUL

The rhythm is below me

The rhythm of the heat

The rhythm is around me

The rhythm has control

The rhythm is inside me

THE RHYTHM HAS MY SOUL
