Tidløs

Har alltid trodd at penger
var det jeg ville ha
nå vet jeg at jeg trenger
en solskinnsdag

For jeg husker ikke lenger
hva som er ned eller opp
de siste fireogtjue timer
har jeg bare vært på jobb

Jeg skulle sitte på en brygge og høre på bygget
jeg skulle brøle bohemen leve
og jeg som trodde jeg var rik
men tid ble penger

Jeg skulle gjøre karriere
jeg skulle opp ikke ned
men jeg ble liggende på været
sånn som seilerne

Og jeg ble liggende og vente
på alt som skulle skje
jeg skulle få meg en jente
og en familie

Vi skulle sitte på en brygge og høre på bygget
vi skulle brøle bohemen leve
og jeg som trodde jeg var rik
men tid ble penger
jeg skulle skinne som en stjerne på alle fester
jeg skulle leve over alle evner
men den festen som skulle bli lang
den kom aldri i gang

Jeg skulle sitte på en brygge…

Other Side Of The World

Over the sea and far away
She’s waiting like an iceberg
Waiting to change
But she’s cold inside
She wants to be like the water

All the muscles tighten in her face
Buries her soul in one embrace
They’re one and the same
Just like water

The fire fades away
Most of every day
Is full of tired excuses
But it’s too hard to say
I wish it were simple
But we give up easily
You’re close enough to see that
You’re the other side of the world to me

On comes the panic light
Holding on with fingers and feelings alike
But the time has come
To move along

The fire fades away...

Can you help me
Can you let me go
And can you still love me
When you can’t see me anymore

The fire fades away...

Getting bored here...

Preciso algo de novo... Das 3000 e tantas faixas de música que tenho, já ganhei anticorpos a quase todas... Já enjoei... Preciso de um novo hit para ouvir ad nauseum até saber a letra de trás para a frente... Isto anda pobre, muito pobre em género musical... Digam-me que há algo de novo...

Como uma virgem... ou não!

Num acto da mais pura nostalgia abichanada, resolvi sacar o DVD "In Bed with Madonna - Truth or Dare", vídeo que resulta da digressão Blond Ambition World Tour. Já o tinha na velhinha VHS mas de tanto ver e ouvir, Madonna já cantava de fininho...
Aqui fica um excerto que marca o espírito madonnesco da época.

Slam, um dos seus melhores dançarinos (e mais giro, by the way) gere agora uma companhia de dança.

Já lá vão dezoito anos...

Careless Whispers - George Michael

Há dias atrás ouvi esta música em casa do S. e há quanto tempo já não a fazia tocar cá em casa ad nauseum. Ei-la...

I feel so unsure
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies
Something in your eyes
Calls to mind a silver screen
And all its sad goodbyes

I’m never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it’s easy to pretend
I know you’re not a fool
Should’ve known better than to cheat a friend
And waist the chance that I’d been given
So I’m never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

Time can never mend
Careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There’s no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you’ll find

I’m never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it’s easy to pretend
I know you’re not a fool
Should’ve known better than to cheat a friend
And waist the chance that I’d been given
So I’m never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

Never without you…

Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it’s better this way
We’d hurt each other with the things we’d want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But now who’s gonna dance with me?
Please stay…

Chorus

Now that you’re gone
Now that you’re gone

Was what I did so wrong, so wrong
That you had to leave me alone

Relax, take it easy...

A música "panca" do momento... Ele é no carro, ele é em casa, ele é na empresa... Como as outras... até me cansar...

Relax

Took a ride to the end of the lane

Where no one ever goes

Ended up on a broken train with nobody I know

But the pain and the longing's the same when you're dying

Now I’m lost and I’m screaming for help alone

Relax, take it easy

For there is nothing that we can do

Relax, take it easy

Blame it on me or blame it on you

It’s as if I’m scared

It’s as if I’m terrified

It’s as if I'm scared

It’s as if I’m playing with fire

Scared

It’s as if I’m terrified

Are you scared?

Are we playing with fire?

Relax

There is an answer to the darkest times

It’s clear we don’t understand it

But the last thing on my mind is to leave you

I believe that we’re in this together

Don’t scream – there are so many roads left

Relax, take it easy

For there is nothing that we can do

Relax, take it easy

Blame it on me or blame it on you

Relax, take it easy

For there is nothing that we can do

Relax, take it easy

Blame it on me or blame it on you

Relax, take it easy

For there is nothing that we can do

Relax, take it easy

Blame it on me or blame it on you

Relax, take it easy

For there is nothing that we can do

Relax, take it easy

Blame it on me or blame it on you

It’s as if I’m scared

It’s as if I’m terrified

It’s as if I'm scared

It’s as if I’m playing with fire

Relax

Scared

It’s as if I’m terrified

Are you scared?

Are we playing with fire?

Relax

Relax

I'm caught up with...

Trouble

Oh no, I see
A spider web is tangled up with me
And I lost my head
The thought of all the stupid things I’d said

Oh no, what’s this?
A spider web and I’m caught in the middle
So I turn to run
The thought of all the stupid things I’ve done

And I never meant to cause you trouble
I never meant to do you wrong
And I… well, if I ever caused you trouble
And oh no, I never meant to do you harm

Oh no, I see
A spider web and it’s me in the middle
So I twist and turn
Here am I in my little bubble

Singing out loud, I never meant to cause you trouble
And I never meant to do you wrong
And I… well, if I ever caused you trouble
Oh, no I never meant to do you harm

They spun a web for me
They spun a web for me

They spun a web for me

Say it right...

Confesso que não sou grande apreciador da jóve cantora mas ando viciado nesta música. Como diria a minha mãe, «só me apetece abanar o capacete»... ad nauseum... lol

Floden - Bjørn Eidsvåg & Elvira Nikolaisen

Ando com esta música na cabeça o dia inteiro e penso em ti. Vá-se lá saber porquê...

Frágil

Põe-me o braço no ombro
Eu preciso de alguém
Dou-me com toda a gente
Não me dou a ninguém

Faz-me um sinal qualquer
Se me vires falar demais
Eu às vezes embarco
Em conversas banais

Frágil, sinto-me frágil

Está a saber-me mal
Este whisky de malte
Adorava estar in
Mas estou a sentir-me algo

Frágil

Sinto-me frágil
Frágil, esta noite estou tão frágil
Frágil, já nem consigo ser ágil

Acompanha-me a casa
Já não aguento mais
Deposita na cama
Os meus restos mortais

Frágil, sinto-me frágil

Frágil, esta noite estou tão frágil
Frágil, já nem consigo ser ágil

Frágil, esta noite estou tão frágil
Frágil, já nem consigo ser ágil

Frágil, esta noite estou tão frágil
Frágil, já nem consigo ser ágil

Põe-me o braço no ombro
Eu preciso de alguém
Dou-me com toda a gente
Não me dou a ninguém

Está a saber-me mal
Este whisky de malte
Adorava estar in
Mas estou a sentir-me algo

Frágil

Je suis mon cœur

J’ai peur que ça me démange
Que ça recommence
J’ai peur d’oublier
Le mal que ça fait

Comme une revanche
Sur le manque et l’absence
Vers cinq heures du soir
Quand le ciel s’en va

Même si ça dérange
Ma vie et le bon sens
Je ne peux pas
M’en passer comme ça

Tu reviens et ça recommence
Je veux croire encore à la chance
Je m’abandonne à l’évidence
Même si j’ai peur, je suis mon cœur

Toujours en partance
Vers une longue errance
Au cœur de nulle part
Où l’amour se noie

J’ai peur de l’offense
Des profonds silences
J’ai peur de ta voix
Qui ne répond pas

J’ai peur de la confiance
Perfide et ignorante
Sur un mur de pourquoi
Se cogne tout droit

Tu reviens et ça recommence
Je veux croire encore à la chance
Je m’abandonne à l’évidence
Même si j’ai peur, tu es mon cœur

J’ai peur que ça me démange
Que ça recommence
Quand le bonheur est là
Tout casser pour toi…

Je suis mon cœur
Je suis mon cœur
Je suis mon cœur

Baby, Can I Hold You?

Sorry
Is all that you can't say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily
Like sorry, like sorry

Forgive me
Is all that you can't say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily
Like forgive me, forgive me

But you can say baby
Baby, can I hold you tonight?
Maybe if I told you the right words
At the right time, you'd be mine

I love you
Is all that you can't say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily
Like I love you, I love you

But you can say baby
Baby, can I hold you tonight?
Maybe if I told you the right words
At the right time, you'd be mine

Baby, can I hold you tonight?
Maybe if I told you the right words
At the right time, you'd be mine

You'd be mine
You'd be mine

Ný Batterí

heftur með gaddavír í kjaftinum sem blæðir mig

læstur er lokaður inn í búri

dýr nakinn ber á mig

og bankar upp á frelsari

ótaminn setur í ný batterí

og hleður á ný

og hleður á ný

og hleður á ný

og hleður á ný

við tætum tryllt af stað

út í óvissuna þar

til að við rústum öllu og reisum aftur

aftur á ný

aftur á ný

aftur á ný

aftur á bak þar sem við ríðum

aftur með gaddavír

sem rífur upp gamalt gróið sár

er orðinn ryðguð sál

rafmagnið búið

mig langar að skera

og rista sjálfan mig á hol

en þori það ekki

frekar slekk ég á mér

aleinn á ný
