Dia 352

Putaquipariu!!!!!! Isso é que é fazer uma coisa... a mi manera (queria demais que fosse à minha maneira, mas é à maneira do Gypsy Kings - bem melhor, né?). Três palavrinhas: coração na boca!


Yo se que no vendrás
Por eso ya
Tanto la olvido
Dejar un nuevo amor
Tanto mejor
Ay como el mio
Dejar y la vive
Ay este mundo de tristeza
Dejar y la vive
Ay mi manera!

Agora se vcs querem ver alguém tocar com a alma, assistam a esse vídeo. Uma das minhas bandas favoritas, com um batera foda, um baixo animal, um guitarrista que dispensa comentários e o vocal, que além de lembrar o Chico e conseguir ser muito mais gato, tem um visual enlouquecedor (tudo bem, tem gente que ainda acha que aquele bigodinho tem algum potencial, mas eu não trabalho com look trocador), uma voz singular, um olhar azul perdido e - last but not least - canta com o corpo inteiro. Dá pra ficar batido? Dá? É igual a "Um lugar chamado Notting Hill": toda vez que passa eu assisto; toda vez que eu assisto eu choro. Essa, for those who really feel the music, é de chorar.

PS: Qualquer semelhança com "O Retrato de Dorian Gray" é mera coincidência...

On a cold, wet afternoon
In a room full of emptiness
By a freeway I confess
I was lost in the pages
Of a book full of death
Reading how we'll die alone
And if we're good, we'll lay to rest
Anywhere we want to go

In your house I long to be
Room by room patiently
I'll wait for you there
Like a stone
I'll wait for you there

Alone


On my deathbed I will pray
To the gods and the angels
Like a pagan to anyone
Who will take me to heaven
To a place I recall
I was there so long ago
The sky was bruised
The wine was bled
And there you led me on


And on I read
Until the day was gone
And I sat in regret
Of all the things I've done
For all that I've blessed
And all that I've wronged
In dreams until my death
I will wander on...

This one, on the other hand, was totally and completely pointless in a punk rock version. The lyrics have nothing to do with the melody, and the Ramones seem to be singing something else. However, since they are always so much fun, we tend to listen and forget such sacrilege...  Besides, the video is fun. If you look closely to the girl in the video, for instance, you'll see there's no chance she wants to dance with a punk rock band.  After seeing her doing her best to make people believe she actually belonged in that scene, I thought:You? In a rock'n'roll school? Fuck no!

Dia 349

When I first heard this song, I remember thinking "wow, it's so suffocating, so psychotic, desperately stalker-like"... It seemed to have been written by a psycho killer in a madhouse. But then Sting sang it so delicately that I soon forgot these impressions. Many years later, however - and when I say many years, I do mean it - I finally had the chance to hear this song exactly the same way I'd always pictured it. It's time to show you this masterpiece - because after all, "I'll be watching you" sounds quite creepy, doesn't it?
