I wanna be your toy...

Uno de los grandes nombres de la historia del rock, fue sin lugar a dudas Marc Bolan, líder de T. Rex., con sus botas de plataforma, ropas de leopardo, chaquetas brillantes, sombreros de copa y maquillaje crearon una corriente marcada por la ambigüedad sexual y la teatralidad, llamada el glam rock. Una de sus canciones más conocidas alla por la década de los 70 y que comparto esta vez forma parte esencial del manga homónimo, obra de Naoki Urasawa (autor altamente recomendado *_*) aunque hay muchos grupos que la han adaptado, entre ellos Placebo o X Japan; también hay gente, por ahora anónima, que ha dado al mundo un buen cover de este clásico ^^



Canción: "20th Century Boy" (1973)
Intérprete: T. Rex

Oow
Friends say it's fine, friends say it's good
Ev'rybody says it's just like rock'n'roll
I move like a cat, charge like a ram
Sting like a bee, babe I wanna be your man
Well it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah
I'm your boy, your 20th century toy

Friends say it's fine, my friends say it's good
Ev'rybody says it's just like rock'n'roll
Fly like a plane, drive like a car
Ball like a hen, babe I wanna be your man - oh
Well it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah
I'm your toy, your 20th century boy

20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy

Friends say it's fine, friends say it's good
Ev'rybody says it's just like rock'n'roll
Move like a cat, charge like a ram
Sting like I feel, babe I wanna be your man
Well it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah
I'm your toy, your 20th century boy

20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your toy
20th century boy, I wanna be your toy

...en estos caminos

Ya que estamos en el tema de videos ochenteros, te comparto éste, de la banda noruega A-ha, a quienes seguro conoces por el tema "Take On Me", si es que no te pasaste los ochenta metida abajo de una piedra. Que, en tu caso, es posible.

Esta canción fue mi favorita mucho tiempo estando en la secundaria (y entonces ya era antigua), y hace poco la redescubrí gracias a una amiga que precisamente encontró el video en YouTube. Viva la modernidad.

Espero que te guste :D

A-ha - Stay on these roads



Por cierto, ya viste esto para tu mini?

Muriendo en tus brazos...

Uy! que romanticona me ando poniendo ultimamente XD, pero weno hace unos dias se me vino a la neurona una de las canciones que forman parte de la Banda Sonora de Grand Theft Auto Vice City, una de mis emisoras favoritas en el juego era Emotion y fue gracias a tanto escucharla que di con esta preciosa cancion ^^ y evidentemente hallé su respectivo videoclip en el YouTube.com XD



Interprete: Cutting Crew
Album: Broadcast (1986)
Canción:(I just)Died in your arms

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight

I keep looking for something I can't get
Broken hearts lie all around me
And I don't see an easy way to get out of this
Her diary it sits on the bedside table
The curtains are closed, the cats in the cradle
Who would've thought that a boy like me could come to this

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been some kind of kiss
I should've walked away

Is there any just cause for feeling like this?
On the surface I'm a name on a list
I try to be discreet, but then blow it again
I've lost and found, it's my final mistake
She's loving by proxy, no give and all take
'cos I've been thrilled to fantasy one too many times

Oh I, I just died in your arms...

It was a long hot night
She made it easy, she made it feel right
But now it's over the moment has gone
I followed my hands not my head, I know I was wrong

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight...

Bailando a la luz de la luna...

Awww... diez de la mañana de un caluroso dia de verano... medio levantada y luego de haber arrastrado a un saco de papas a mi cama pongo la radio para que alguna buena cancion haga efecto sobre mi y me decida de una vez a levantarme, entre sueño y realidad, el bulto esta cantando,... una ultima cancion de despedida, porque cogera en unas horas ese avion maldito que le llevará a su tierra linda y querida :)
Aun me acuerdo de ese dia loser, y pa celebrar ese año del encuentro y despedida te dejo la cancion que desde entonces se quedó aun mas en mi corazon ;)
Y a ver si algun dia la volvemos a cantar juntas XDD



Canción: Dancing in the moonlight
Interprete: Toploader
Album: Onka's Big Moka

We get it on most every night
When that moon is big and bright
Its a supernatural delight
Everybodys dancing in the moonlight

Everybody here is out of sight
They dont bark and they dont bite
They keep things loose they keep it tight
Everybodys dancing in the moonlight

Dancing in the moonlight
Everybodys feeling warm and bright
Its such a fine and natural sight
Everybodys dancing in the moonlight

We like our fun and we never fight
You cant dance and stay uptight
Its a supernatural delight
Everybody was dancing in the moonlight

Dancing in the moonlight
Everybodys feeling warm and bright
Its such a fine and natural sight
Everybodys dancing in the moonlight

We get it on most every night
And when that moon is big and bright
Its a supernatural delight
Everybodys dancing in the moonlight

Dancing in the moonlight
Everybodys feeling warm and bright
Its such a fine and natural sight
Everybodys dancing in the moonlight

Ash...

Ahora, si, el da-da-da...

Y seguimos con el mundial...

Inevitable no empaparse de tanto sentimiento futbolero, no? XD que partidazo el de Alemania VS Italia, y aunque me duela admitirlo, Italia fue mas... yo que me imaginaba una final Alemania - Portugal...
Pues bueno, también te dejo, mi querida loser, tres videillos que estuvieron sonando hasta antes del partido contra Francia, al dia siguiente todos estos himnos fueron historia :P

Cancion: A por ellos, oe! (errrr... tipica españolada)
Intérprete: La banda del capitán canalla y la selección española de futbol (si en lugar de estar cantando, hubieran estado entrenando... ¬¬)



Canción: Vamos! (solo audio)
Intérprete: Señor trepador (esta no ta nada mal ^^)



Canción: ¡Opá, vamo a por el mundial!
Intérprete: El Koala (un personaje que gracias a youtube y una buena difusion via email ha metido su cancion como la del verano ?_?)



Bueno loser, no te animo más... en México segurito que estás mejor! XD

Nos fuimos del mundia-al, nos fuimos del mundial!

Mi querida y longitudinalmente despojada amiga, te traté de llamar el día del partido de España-Francia para ver cómo estabas, pero como estaba en el trabajo y lo hice desde el celular, la llamada no entró por ser internacional.

Qué robo fue el segundo gol de Francia, eh? Estaba para pegarles :(

En fin. Siguiendo con el espíritu mundialista que está por apagarse (nooooo... mi jefe ya no se enfermará tan seguido!!), te comparto estos dos comerciales por los cuales fuimos bombardeados durante toda la participación de nuestro bello y verde país en la Copa del Mundo:



Awww...



Da-da-da...

(Es Rafita!!!)

Un abrazo, Loooser!

Reik - Yo quisiera

Hace una semana mientras intentaba memorizar cientos de páginas en la sala de estudio de mi facu, y al ver que era en vano porque parecía que estuviera en el bar; opté por abrir la mochila, desenfundar mi ipod y perderme con lo que destilara... sin querer siempre meto lo que pueda en el disco duro, y en ese momento algo me paralizó, unos acordes me erizaron la piel y una suave voz me hizo retroceder unos cuantos añitos atrás, la letra hubiera sido perfecta para esos días en los que mi corazoncito latía desmedidamente por mi mejor platónico... y fue inevitable no pensar en él... grandioso Benedetti cuando decía que no olvida quien finge olvido sino quien puede olvidar...



Artista: Reik
Album: Reik (2005)
Canción: Yo quisiera

Soy tu mejor amigo,
Tu pañuelo de lágrimas
De amores perdidos...

Te recargas en mi hombro
Tu llanto no cesa,
Yo sólo te acaricio...

Y me dices porque la vida es tan cruel con tus sentimientos
Yo solo te abrazo, y te consuelo

Me pides mil consejos para protegerte
De tu próximo encuentro, sabes que te cuido
Lo que no sabes es que...

[Estribillo]

Yo quisiera ser ése por quien tu te desvelas y te desesperas
Yo quisiera ser tu llanto... ése que viene de tus sentimientos
Yo quisiera ser ése por quien tu despertaras ilusionada
Yo quisiera que vivieras de mí siempre enamorada

Tú te me quedas viendo,
Y me preguntas,
Si algo me está pasando...

Y yo no sé qué hacer,
Si tu supieras que... me estoy muriendo
Quisiera decirte... lo que yo siento, no

Pero tengo miedo de que me rechazes,
Y que sólo en mi mente vivas, para siempre
Por eso...

[Estribillo]

Yo quisiera ser ése por quien tú te desvelas y te desesperas
Yo quisiera ser tu llanto... ése que viene de tus sentimientos
Yo quisiera ser ése por quien tú despertaras ilusionada
Yo quisiera que vivieras de mi siempre enamorada

Yo quisiera ser ése por quien tú te desvelas y te desesperas
Yo quisiera ser tu llanto... ése que viene de tus sentimientos
Yo quisiera ser ese por quien tú despertaras ilusionada
Yo quisiera que vivieras de mi siempre enamorada

Fall out boy - Dance dance

Muy bien... que no se diga que no pongo de mi parte.

Aquí te va Dance Dance, de Fall out Boy, unos chavos punketos de Chicago que han sabido moverse por Estados Unidos... pero no sé si hayan sonado en Europa.

Te dejo Dance Dance:



She says she's no good with words but I'm worse.
Barely stuttered out, "A joke of a romantic," stuck to my tongue.
Weighed down with words too over-dramatic.
Tonight it's "It can't get much worse" vs. "No one should ever feel like..."

I'm two quarters and a heart down.
And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds.
These words are all I have so I'll write them.
So you need them just to get by.

(whispered part - Pete)
We're going into B-minor.

Dance, Dance
We're falling apart to half time.
Dance, Dance
And these are the lives you'd love to lead.
Dance
This is the way they'd love if they knew how misery loved me.

You always fold just before you're found out.
Drink up it's last call, last resort, but only the first mistake.

I'm two quarters and a heart down.
And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds.
These words are all I have so I'll write them.
So you need them just to get by.

Why don't you show me the little bit of spine,
You've been saving for his mattress, love.

Dance, Dance
We're falling apart to half time.
Dance, Dance
And these are the lives you'd love to lead.
Dance
This is the way they'd love if they knew how misery loved me.

Why don't you show me the little bit of spine,
You've been saving for his mattress.
I only want sympathy in the form of you,
Crawling into bed with me.

Dance, Dance
We're falling apart to half time.
Dance, Dance
And these are the lives you'd love to lead.
Dance
This is the way they'd love. (Way they'd love.)
Dance
This is the way they'd love. (Way they'd love.)
Dance
This is the way they'd love if they knew how misery loved me.

Dance, Dance
Dance, Dance
Dance, Dance
Dance, Dance

Ashley Parker Angel - Let U Go

Ahora el ex vocalista de O Town se presenta en solitario colocando este tema en lo mas altito de las listas, eso si, ayudado de su propio reality show (en MTV of course), donde expone penas, sudor y lágrimas luego de la extinción de la banda.



Artista: Ashley Parker Angel
Album: Soundtrack toYour Life (2006)
Canción: Let U Go

Broken promises
That you don’t really mind
It’s not the first time
And you know it, don’t you now?
Tell me why it is, you only smile inside
When you break me into nothing
Don’t you know?

It’s not like I haven’t tried
Over and over again
Stupid fights
Wrong or right?
Goodbye…

Chorus
I remember when
You came with me that night
You said forever
That you would never
Let me go
But here I am again
With nothing left inside
No, I don’t wanna
But I gotta
Let U go

You’re the one mistake
I really didn’t mind
So beautiful and mercifully took me down
Too little and too late
So now I know your kind
You fake it easy, just to please me
Don’t you know?

It’s not like we haven’t tried
Over and over again
Sleepless nights
Wrong or right?
Goodbye…
Chorus

I gotta let U go…

It’s you…
There’s nothing I can do…

I remember when
You came with me that night
You said forever
You said forever
You said forever

Here I am again
With nothing left inside
No, I don’t wanna
But I gotta
Let U go

Chorus

No estaba muerta...

HE REVIVIDO!!

A ver qué te parece esta. Del álbum del 2005 "Wreck of the Day", Anna Nalick presenta el sencillo "Breathe (2am)", que después de un éxito moderado el año de su lanzamiento, tuvo un boom tras su uso en la (excelente) serie de televisión "Grey's Anatomy".




"Breathe (2 AM)"

2 AM and she calls me 'cause I'm still awake,
"Can you help me unravel my latest mistake?,
I don't love him. Winter just wasn't my season"
Yeah we walk through the doors, so accusing their eyes
Like they have any right at all to criticize,
Hypocrites. You're all here for the very same reason

'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button, girl.
So cradle your head in your hands
And breathe... just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe

May he turn 21 on the base at Fort Bliss
Just today he sat down to the flask in his fist,
"Ain't been sober, since maybe October of last year."
Here in town you can tell he's been down for a while,
But, my God, it's so beautiful when the boy smiles,
Wanna hold him. Maybe I'll just sing about it.

Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable,
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table.
No one can find the rewind button, boys,
So cradle your head in your hands,
And breathe... just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe

There's a light at each end of this tunnel,
You shout 'cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
And these mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again
If you only try turning around.

2 AM and I'm still awake, writing a song
If I get it all down on paper, it's no longer inside of me,
Threatening the life it belongs to
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
Cause these words are my diary, screaming out loud
And I know that you'll use them, however you want to

But you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable,
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button now
Sing it if you understand.
and breathe, just breathe
woah breathe, just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe.


Bájatela de aquí, floja.

¿Qué tal les va de mundial? ¿Saben que los odio un poco por tener los partidos a horarios más decentes que nosotros? ¿Y porque seguramente la cobertura de los partidos por allá es mejor que la nuestra? Pfft.

The Calling - Wherever You Will Go

Desde "Camino Palmero", su primer trabajo, The Calling nos presenta esta canción al más puro estilo "Hoobastank" :P



Grupo: The Calling
Album: Camino Palmero (2001)
Canción: Wherever You Will Go

So lately, been wondering
Who will be there to take my place
When I'm gone you'll need love to light the shadows on your face
If a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
Then between the sand and stone, could you make it on your own
If I could, then I would,
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low, I'll go wherever you will go
And maybe, I'll find out
A way to make it back someday
To watch you, to guide you, through the darkest of your days
If a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
Then I hope there's someone out there
Who can bring me back to you
If I could, then I would,
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low, I'll go wherever you will go

Chorus
Run away with my heart
Run away with my hope
Run away with my love
I know now, just quite how,
My life and love may still go on
In your heart, in your mind, I'll stay with you for all of time

Falsa Moral

Y nooo, no me refiero a mi compañera de blog XDDD (hasta ahora espero que actualices :P) le echaremos la culpa al trabajo ;)
Del album Antropop editado el 2000 se puede extraer una de las mejores canciones del grupo barcelonino OBK: "Falsa moral", aunque siempre habia creido que abordaba el amor homosexual (solo basta guiarse por la letra y por ciertos rumores acerca de los integrantes del grupo); el videoclip sin embargo, nos cuenta otra historia muy tierna, con la cual es inevitable no emocionarse cada que empiezan a sonar los primeros acordes...



Artista: OBK
Album: Antropop
Canción: Falsa moral

La más bella historia
que se pueda contar
lleva escrito el dolor
que produce un amor
que nadie entenderá.
Siempre todo a escondidas,
siempre mirando atrás.
Sólo la oscuridad
puede ser nuestro hogar
donde crecerá este amor y...
No, no quiero más clases
de falsa moral
que nadie es culpable
por amar.
En mi pecho no late la razón,
sólo el más sincero
y puro amor.
No hay mar en el mundo
ni fuerza capaz
que pueda este fuego apagar.
Sólo el tiempo
puede ser nuestro juez.
Te quise, quiero y querré...
Que difícil lo nuestro,
que bonito a la vez.
Es tan duro tener
que buscar los por qués
a esta situación...
Nuestro amor es la isla,
el tesoro eres tú...
Con mi vida daré
sólo el brazo a torcer,
bien lo sabes, mi amor...

La espera desespera... XD

Como si sigo aqui sentada esperando a que postees, me haré vieja antes de tiempo... pues añado una cancioncita por la cual a lo mejor hasta te ries de mis gustos... pero que le voy a hacer, me he enganchado a la serie y esta el video es uno de mis favoritos :P
Te soñé by Erreway
From la serie: "Rebelde Way"

x_X

Ejem. Pues estoy consciente de que esperamos por mí nada más, pero la tragedia golpeó a mi sacrosanto iPod y perdí toda mi biblioteca musical; estoy en el proceso de recopilarla otra vez ;_;

Pero prometo tener una canción lista para esta semana!!

Por otro lado, la de Bob Sinclair se puso de moda en la radio y en las discos por aquí! Mi hermanita está asombrada ante mis vanguardistas gustos musicales, jajaja!

Perdón -_-

Alicia.

One continúa....

No es mi contribución de esta semana, pero pensé que te gustaría verlo:

Algo de Travis

Una canción diferente, con un mensaje de optimismo... Qué falta nos hace el optimismo a veces...

Artista: Travis
Título: Love will come through
Álbum: 12 Memories

If I told you a secret
You won't tell a soul
Will you hold it and keep it alive
Cause it's burning a hole
And I can't get to sleep
And I can't live alone in this lie

So look up
Take it away
Don't look da-da-da- down the mountain

If the world isn't turning
Your heart won't return
Anyone, anything, anyhow

So take me don't leave me
Take me don't leave me
Baby, love will come through it's just waiting for you

Well I stand at the crossroads
Of highroads and lowroads
And I got a feeling it's right

If it's real what I'm feeling
There's no makebelieving
The sound of the wings of the flight of a dove

Take it away
Don't look da-da-da down the mountain
If the world isn't turning
Your heart won't return anyone anything anyhow...

So take me don't leave me
Take me don't leave me
Baby, love will come through it's just waiting for you

So look up
Take it away
Don't look da-da-da- down

If the world isn't turning
Your heart won't return anyone anything anyhow...

So take me don't leave me
Take me don't leave me
Baby, love will come through it's just waiting for you

Love will come through
Love will come through
Love will come through

Escúchala en la Sucursal México de Music Box!

Mary...

me encanta cuando Bono le da pie en la canción... ¡qué voz más sensual! es raro, nunca habia escuchado esta canción de la mano de U2, será motivo para bajarsela... puedes escucharla en Music Box

ARTIST: U2
TITLE: One

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you, now
You got someone to blame

You say, one love, one life
When it's one need in the night
One love, we get to share it
It leaves you baby if you don't care for it


Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without

Well it's too late tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One

Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much, more than a lot
You gave me nothing now it's all I got
We're one but we're not the same
Well, we hurt each other then we do it again

You say love is a temple, love a higher law
Love is a temple, love the higher law
You ask me to enter but then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on to what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love, one blood
One life, you got to do what you should
One life, with each other
Sisters, brothers
One life, but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One
One

De las primeras...

...que Laura nos cantaba, aunque no sea muy conocida, es una de las que me gustan ^^

Cani e gatti (Perro y Gato)

Album: Laura (en italiano)
Testo : Cheope
Musica : A. Valsiglio, G. Carella
Escuchalo en: Music Box

Niente che vada mai nel verso giusto
Almeno per me
Non resisto più, è già una ora che
Sto girando vuoto, nella testa solo tu
Sempre più sull´acceleratore
Del mio cuore che sta
Già perdendoti ma non ce la fa
A capire come ritornare a vivere
E un´altra settimana se ne va
Senza sapere che sarà di noi
Dimmi perché siamo qui a lottare
Io contro te fino a stare male
Fino a quando non sarà finita
E non c´è mai un attimo di pace
Nessuno che parli sottovoce
Abbiamo perso il senso della vita
Certo che se ti guardi intorno
Tu lo vedi da te
Quanta rabbia c´è che poi entra in noi
E ci mette contro non importa mai il perché
Quante volte ho detto vado via
Da una vita che non sento mia
Dimmi perché siamo tutti matti
Anche io e te come cani e gatti
E ci lasciamo sempre una ferita
La gente è sempre più cattiva
Un mare che sbatte sulla riva
Abbiamo perso il gusto della vita
Ma stasera vengo in pace e io spero che ci sia
Un minuto per parlare fuori dalla follia
Siamo così, siamo tutti matti
Anche io e te come cani e gatti
Ma se c´è un amore non è mai finita
E ci sarà sempre ancora un modo
Anche per noi per slacciare il nodo
E ritrovare il gusto della vita
