Más canciones de ardidos...

Gracias por las canciones... No conocía ninguna de las tres, y ahora las tres están en mi biblioteca.
Triste pero cierto, seguir adelante después de un rompimiento como éste toma tiempo; por lo pronto, creo que estoy progresando poco a poco, al grado que ahora las canciones que más se aplican a lo que estoy pasando son estas dos, que estoy segura habrás escuchado:

Pink - So what?


I guess I just lost my husband boyfriend
I don't know where he went
So I'm gonna drink my money
I'm not gonna pay his rent (Nope)
I got a brand new attitude
And I'm gonna wear it tonight
I wanna get in trouble
I wanna start a fight

Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
I wanna start a fight
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
I wanna start a fight

So, so what?
I'm still a rock star
I got my rock moves
And i don't need you
And guess what
I'm having more fun
And now that we're done
I'm gonna show you tonight
I'm alright, I'm just fine
And you're a tool
So, so what?
I am a rockstar
I got my rock moves
And I don't want you tonight

Uh, check my flow, uh

The waiter just took my table
And gave to Jessica Simp- Shit!
I guess I'll go sit with drum boy
At least he'll know how to hit
What if this song's on the radio
Then somebody's gonna die
I'm gonna get in trouble
My ex will start a fight

Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
He's gonna start a fight
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
We're all gonna get in a fight

So, so what?
I'm still a rock star
I got my rock moves
And I don't need you
And guess what?
I'm having more fun
And now that we're done
I'm gonna show you tonight
I'm alright, I'm just fine
And you're a tool
So, so what?
I am a rock star
I got my rock moves
And I don't want you tonight

You weren't there, you never were
You wanted all, but that's not fair
I gave you life, I gave my all
You weren't there, you let me fall

So, so what?
I'm still a rock star
I got my rock moves
And I don't need you
And guess what?
I'm having more fun
And now that we're done (we're done)
I'm gonna show you tonight
I'm alright(I'm alright)
I'm just fine (I'm just fine)
And you're a tool
So, so what?
I am a rock star
I got my rock moves
And I don't want you tonight

No No, No No
I Don't want you tonight
You weren't there

I'm gonna show you tonight
I'm alright, I'm just fine
And you're a tool
So, so what?
I am a rock star
I got my rock moves
And I don't want you tonight

Whoo Hoo
Ba Da Da Da Da Da

Y por otro lado, esperanza:


Pocketful of Sunshine
(El video insertado está un poquito desfasado... El que está en el link está mejor, pero no se podía insertaaaarrrr!!!)

I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine.
I got a love, and I know that it's all mine.
Oh.

Do what you want, but you're never gonna break me.
Sticks and stones are never gonna shake me.
No.

Take me away: A secret place.
A sweet escape: Take me away.

Take me away to paradise
Take me away: A higher place.

I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine.
I got a love, and I know that it's all mine.
Oh.

Do what you want, but you're never gonna break me.
Sticks and stones are never gonna shake me.
No.

I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine.
I got a love, and I know that it's all mine.
Oh.

Wish that you could, but you ain't gonna own me.
Do everything you want, you can't slow me down.
Oh, no.

Take me away: A secret place.
A sweet escape: Take me away.

Take me away to paradise
Take me away: A higher place.

And there's no more lies.
In the darkness, there's light.
And nobody cries. There's only butterflies.

Take me away: A secret place.
To paradise take me away.

Take me away to paradise.
Take me away: A higher place.

Take me away: A secret place.
To paradise take me away.

Take me away to paradise.
Take me away: A higher place.

I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine.
I got a love, and I know that it's all mine.
Oh.

The sun is on my side.
I take it for a ride.
I smile up to the sky.
I know I'll be all right.
I know I'll be all right.

The sun is on my side.
I take it for a ride.
I smile up to the sky.
I know I'll be all right.
I know I'll be all right.

Dale al play...

Querida amiga, lamento enterarme de que tenías novio, cuando lo has perdido en lugar de cuando lo habías encontrado... sin embargo usaré una frase muy sabia que sustituye cualquier rollo sobre el amor, la pasión y el odio: "Él se lo pierde". Así, siguiendo en el camino iniciado por esta frase he dejarte tres canciones despechadas:

Gabriela Cilmi - Sweet about me



Duffy - Warwick Avenue



Katy Perry - Ur So Gay

Love Song

Escribí esta entrada en mi blog por esta canción: Love Song de Sara Bareilles (el video no se puede insertar, blah). Después de que mi novio terminó conmigo de un día para otro, sin aviso ni explicación, no podía haber escuchado esta canción más veces en un día de lo que lo hice.

La versión que tengo yo es mucho más "simple" que la versión del video, y me gusta más, porque es sólo eso: una simple voz y unos sencillos acordes en el piano que dicen todo lo que hay que decirle a alguien que pide sin dar nada a cambio.

La letra es magnífica:

Head under water
And you tell me to breathe easy for a while
breathing gets harder, even I know that
You made room for me but it's too soon to see
If I'm happy in your hands
I'm unusually hard to hold on to

Blank stares at blank pages
No easy way to say this
You mean well, but you make this hard on me

I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see

I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it
Makes a break in this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving imma need a better reason
to write you a love song today

Today, yeah

I learned the hard way
That they all say things you want to hear
And my heavy heart sinks deep down under you and
Your twisted words,
Your help just hurts
You are not what I thought you were
Hello to high and dry

Convinced me to please you
Made me think that I need this too
I'm trying to let you hear me as I am

I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's
Make or breaking this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving imma need a better reason
to write you a love song today

Promise me
you'll leave the light on
To help me see
with daylight, my guide, gone
'cause I believe there's a way
you can love me because I say
I won't write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see

I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or breaking this
Is that why you wanted a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or breaking this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If your heart is nowhere in it
I don't want it for a minute
Babe, I'll walk the seven seas when I believe that
There's a reason to
Write you a love song today

Today.


¿Qué puedo decir? Fue una más de esas ocasiones en las que me impresionaba darme cuenta que la canción parecía haber sido escrita para mi situación personal específica.

Cuál no fue mi sorpresa cuando leí que Sara escribió esta canción para Sony BMG, cuando esta disquera le pidió que incluyera en su disco una canción de amor que fuera lo suficientemente comercial para hacerla figurar en la industria.

Así son las cosas.
