Siouxsie and the Banshees - Passenger

Toda una institución en la música siniestra (y no sólo dentro de ese género), la Siouxsie y sus chillones, en esta ocasión versionando un tema de otra leyenda viva del rock, la Iguana.



Sé que este tema encantará a alguien ;)

Impagable, para quien se anime a los más de siete minutos, esta actuación del amigo Iggy Pop. Eso es una banda con paciencia y saber hacer, y lo demás son cuentos XD

La letra
****************************
I am the passenger
And I ride and I ride
I ride through the citys backside
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah, theyre bright in a hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight
I am the passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the citys a rip in the sky
And everything looks good tonight
Singin la la la la la-la-la la
La la la la la-la-la la
La la la la la-la-la la la-la
Get into the car
Well be the passenger
Well ride through the city tonight
See the citys ripped insides
Well see the bright and hollow sky
Well see the stars that shine so bright
The sky was made for us tonight
Oh the passenger
How how he rides
Oh the passenger
He rides and he rides
He looks through his window
What does he see?
He sees the bright and hollow sky
He see the stars come out tonight
He sees the citys ripped backsides
He sees the winding ocean drive
And everything was made for you and me
All of it was made for you and me
cause it just belongs to you and me
So lets take a ride and see whats mine
Singing...
Oh, the passenger
He rides and he rides
He sees things from under glass
He looks through his windows eye
He sees the things he knows are his
He sees the bright and hollow sky
He sees the city asleep at night
He sees the stars are out tonight
And all of it is yours and mine
And all of it is yours and mine
Oh, lets ride and ride and ride and ride...
Singing...

Bloc Party - Banquet

Banquet
Bloc Party

A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I can give you life, I can take it away

A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I'm working it out
Why'd you feel so underrated?
Why'd you feel so negated?

Turning away from the light
Becoming adult
Turning into my soul
I wanted to bite not destroy
To feel her underneath
Turning into my soul

She don't think straight
She's got such a dirty mind and it never ever stops
And you don't taste like her and you never ever will
And we don't read the papers, we don't read the news
Heaven's never enough, we will never be fooled

And if you feel a little left behind
I will see you on the other side

Cos I'm on fire
I'm on fire when you come

I'm on fire so stub me out

Kiss - I was made for loving you

Kiss. Inolvidables. Imprescindibles. ¡Viva Halloween!

Siniestro Total - Pueblos del mundo, ¡extinguios!

Hoy me siento romántico y amoroso, así que antes de irme para casa os dejo con todo un himno (para un misántropo como yo). Disfrutemos de la música y recemos porque ese día llegue pronto, y que yo lo vea.



La letra:
**********
Ya no hay trilobites en el mar
en Siberia no queda ni un mamut
las ballenas desaparecerán
así que, humano, ya sólo quedas tú

Pueblos del mundo: ¡extinguíos!
dejad que continúe la evolución
esterilizad a vuestro hijos
juntos de la mano hacia la extinción

Sonríe cuando te vayas a fosilizar
que no piensen luego que lo has pasado mal
procura extinguirte con clase y dignidad
piensa en el museo de historia natural

Pueblos del mundo: ¡extinguíos!
dejad que continúe la evolución
esterilizad a vuestro hijos
juntos de la mano hacia la extinción

La edad de los insectos llegará
y con ojos compuestos me verás
te detectará con antenas y radar
zumbaré de placer al procrear

Pueblos del mundo: ¡extinguíos!
dejad que continúe la evolución
esterilizad a vuestro hijos
juntos de la mano hacia la extinción

Rock patrio de calidad con deliciosos toques de existencialismo y surrealismo.

Y de regalo esta otra pequeña maravilla:



De nuevo la letra, una oda de puro lirismo y amor filantrópico:
*********************
Llego a la isla
lo saco de la tienda
le doy en la cabeza
le abro la cabeza

Le corto un brazo
le arranco una pierna
le saco las uñas
le muerdo una oreja

Matar jipis en las Cies (AAAAAH!)

Vienen sus amigos
pero me da igual
son unos jipis
y lo voy a matar

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10.11,12

Matar jipis en las Cies (AAAAAH!)

Le corto los brazos
le arranco las piernas
le saco las uñas
le muerdo las orejas

Con esto se ha acabado
hoy no quedan más
agarro el barco
otro día volveré

Matar jipis en las Cies (AAAAAH!)

ZZ Top - Beer Drinkers & Hell Raisers

Mucho, mucho tiempo antes de electrificarse y alcanzar la popularidad, ZZ Top hacían, probablemente, el mejor rock y el mejor blues de su época.
Una prueba de ello es este Beer Drinkers & Hell Raisers, una de las mejores canciones que han compuesto los barbudos.
Un grupo imprescindible.



Letras:

If you see me walkin down the line
With my favrite honky tonk in mind,
Well, Ill be here around suppertime
With my can of dinner and a bunch of fine.

Beer drinkers and hell raisers, yeah.
Uh-huh-huh, baby, dont you wanna come with me?

The crowd gets loud when the band gets right,
Steel guitar cryin through the night.
Yeah, tryn to cover up the corner fight
But evrythings cool cause theys just tight.

Beer drinkers and hell raisers, yeah.
Huh, baby, dont you wanna come with me?
Ah, play it boy.

The joint was jumpin like a cat on hot tin.
Lord, I thought the floor was gonna give in.
Soundin a lot like a house congressional
cause were experimental and professional.

Beer drinkers, hell raisers, yeah.
Well, baby, dont you wanna come with me?

Ok Go! - Do what you want

Vuelvo al rock, no vaya a ser que me llaméis blandito otra vez. En este caso es un grupo indie de Chicago. El riff de la guitarra en el parón de la canción fue incluido en el anuncio del Guitar Hero para la DS, así que me figuro que estará incluida esta canción:



Es un grupo que se ha hecho famoso por sus tonterias, como aquel video de la coreografía sobre cintas de andar con mas de 40 millones de visitas o este otro que se lo dedico especialmente a Chema porque estuvimos hablando hace poco de él:

La Dama se esconde - Princesa

Sí, es un grupo español. Reconozco que la música latina no me gusta prácticamente nada, y eso incluye la mayor parte de la música española. Pero existen grupos españoles que juegan con otro tipo de sonidos, alejados de la influencia latina y más cercanos a la música europea que a mí más me atrae (inglesa, alemana, escandinava...).
Este es el caso de La Dama se esconde, grupo ochentero por excelencia, y su mejor tema: Princesa.



En esta ocasión, dado que se trata de un tema en castellano, no pondré las letras.

Incubus - Anna Molly

Incubus es un grupo que no me interesa, que, francamente, no me gusta.
Pero Anna Molly es una obra maestra, una canción magnífica que debo compartir con vosotros.



Letras:

A cloud hangs over,
this city by the sea,
I watch the ships pass and wonder if she might be, (might be)
Out there and sober as well from loneliness,
Please do persist girl its time we met and made a mess

I picture your face in the back of my eyes,
A fire in the attic, a proof of the prize,
anna-molly, anna-molly, anna-molly,
DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO do DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO do

A cloud hangs over,
And mutes my happiness,
A thousand ships couldn't sail me back from distress,
Wish you were here,
I'm a wounded satellite,
I need you now put me back together make me right


I picture your face in the back of my eyes,
A fire in the attic, proof of the prize,
anna molly, anna molly, anna molly,
I'm calling your name,
up into the air,
Not one of the others could ever compare,
anna-molly, anna-molly,


Wait there is a light,
There is a fire illuminated attic,
Fate or something better I couldn't care less,
Just stay with me a while,
Wait there is a light, there is a fire,
Defragmenting the attic,
Fate or something better I could care less,
Just stay with me a while


I picture your face in the back of my eyes,
A fire in the attic a proof of the prize,
anna molly, anna molly, anna molly,
I'm Calling your name,
Up into the air,
Not one of the others could ever compare,
anna molly, anna molly,


Wait there is a light there is a fire
Defragmenting the attic,
Fate or something better I could care less,
Just stay with me a while

DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO do DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO do

P. J. Harvey - Hardly Wait

Poco puedo decir. P. J. Harvey es una de esas voces que me cautivan, una de esas cantantes que van más allá de todo lo que puedo esperar. Este tema es, para mí, el mejor de todos.



Y, por supuesto, aquí van las letras:

I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait
It's been so long I've lost my taste
Say angel comesay lick my face
Let fall your dress
I'll play the part
I'll open this mouth wideeat your heart
I can hardly wait...
Lips cracked dry
Tongue blue burst
Say angel comesaid lick my thirst
It's been so long I've lost my taste
Here romeomake my world as great
In my glass coffin I'm waiting
In my glass coffin I'm waiting
In my glass coffin I'm waiting...
