Quando eu era menina, ia a bailinhos e sempre rolava uma música lenta pra galera ensaiar as primeiras pegações. Aquela pegação moleque, de várzea, uma beleza.

E sempre tocava essa música. Era do A-ha, e todas as meninas eram apaixonadas pelo vocalista da banda. Eles eram noruegueses, o que já traz um certo appeal, uma coisa meio viking. E a voz do cara era bem bacana.

Aí nesses tempos de e-mule, achei uma versão do Coldplay, acústica, lindinha. E o bonitinho do marido da Gwineth canta uns pedacinhos errados, troca a letra…

Uma graça, gente.

Here, I am
And beyond the reach of my hands
She’s sound asleep
And she’s sweet another know why
These dreams could’ve seen her
And I watched her slipping away
And I know I’ll be hunting high and low
High…
There’s no end to the lengths
I’ll go too high and low
High…
There’s no end to the lengths
I’ll go too find her again
Upon this my dreams I depend
And, through the dark
I can hear the pounding of her heart
Next to mine
She’s the sweetest love I could find
So I know I’ll be hunting high and low
High…
There’s no end to the lengths
I’ll go too high and low
High…
Do you know how it feels to love you?
Do you know how it feels to love you?
High and Low

Essa música aqui é trilha sonora de um filme.  Tava aqui ouvindo e parei pra prestar atenção na letra e acho que bate certinho com umas coisas minhas, de agora.

Tá, é trilha de um desenho animado, mas quem se importa? Cowboy Bebop é do caralho, e a música é tão boa quanto.

Gotta Knock a Little Harder - The Seatbelts

Happiness is just a word to me
And it might have meant a thing or two
If I’d known the difference

Emptiness, a lonely parody
And my life, another smokin’ gun
A sign of my indifference

Always keepin’ safe inside
Where no one ever had a chance
To penetrate a break in

Let me tell you some have tried
But I would slam the door so tight
That they could never get in

Kept my cool under lock and key
And I never shed a tear
Another sign of my condidtion

Fear of love or bitter vanity
That kept me on the run
The main events at my confession

I kept a chain upon my door
That would shake the shame of Cain
Into a blind submission

The burning ghost without a name
Was calling all the same
But I wouldn’t listen

The longer I’d stall
The further I’d crawl
The further I’d crawl
The harder I’d fall
I was crawlin’ into the fire

The more that I saw
The further I’d fall
The further I’d fall
The lower I’d crawl
I kept fallin’ into the fire
Into the fire
Into the fire

Suddenly it occurred to me
The reason for the run and hide
Had totaled my existnce

Everything left on the other side
Could never be much worse that this
But could I go the distance

I faced the door and all my shame
Tearin’ off each piece of chain
Until they all were broken

But no matter how I tried
The other side was licked so tight
That door it wouldn’t open

Gave it all that I got
And started to knock
Shouted for someone
To open the lock
I just gotta get through the door

And the more that I knocked
The hotter I got
The hotter I got
The harder I’d knock
I just gotta break through the door

Gotta knock a little harder
Gotta knock a little harder
Gotta knock a little harder
Break through the door

Gabi diz:
véi, tô afim de me suicidar. tem como me ajudar?
Eric diz:
ok. vou te mandar umas paradas tarja preta.

E foi indo: Rufus Wainwright, Beck, Elliot Smith, Nick Drake, Muse e outras coisas depressivas e deprimentes. No meio de tanta coisa corta-pulso, achei essa jóia rara do cancioneiro loser, gravado pelo Travis. Em fases em que NADA parece dar certo, porque haveria de chover em outro lugar que não na sua cabeça? Como todos sabemos, pode chover em vários lugares ao mesmo tempo, mas… quem liga?
É na minha cabeça que está chovendo e isso é uma merda.

[travis, why does it always rain on me?]

I can’t sleep tonight
Everybody’s saying everything is alright
Still I can’t close my eyes
I’m seeing a tunnel at the end of all of these lights
Sunny days, where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong

Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shinning I can’t avoid the lightning

I can’t stand myself
I’m being held up by invisible men
Still life on a shelf when
I’ve got my mind on something else
Sunny days, oh where have you gone
I get the strangest feeling you belong

Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining I can’t avoid the lightning

Middle eight
Oh where did the blue sky go?
Oh why is it raining so?
It’s so cold

Oh where did the blue sky go? oh why is it raining so?
It’s so cold

Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining I can’t avoid the lightning
Why does it always rain on me?
Why does it always rain on

Eric me mandou alguns MP3 de um cara chamado Rufus Wainwright.

De verdade, ele quer que eu me mate. Essa é uma das músicas mais tristes que eu já ouvi - e ei, eu ouço Coldplay em loop no café da manhã. É triste, a voz dele é triste, a letra é triste, o pianinho de fundo é triste.

Mas eu gostei. E estou baixando outras.

Minha nossa, eu preciso de ajuda.

In my arms - Rufus Wainwright

You gave me all your love in one day
You gave it all and almost faded away
Well I’m gonna take this sad unread issue
In my arms tonight
Looking at hospitals Victorian
Feeling as helpless as the Elephant Man
Wish you were here
to chain you up without shame
In my arms tonight

So if you should feel a bit out of place
This vision not unlike a shooting star
I have embraced
‘Cause
You gave me all your love in one day
You gave it all and almost faded away
Well I’m gonna take this sad unread issue
In my arms tonight
Looking at hospitals Victorian
Feeling as helpless as the Elephant Man
Wish you were here
to chain you up without shame
In my arms tonight

I ain’t a soft and saccharine
wannabe
Still I pray to God
this song will end happily
So I offer you a place to rest
and forget yourself
In my arms tonight

Bjork é realmente muito bom. Eu ouço menos do que deveria, mas é genial.

Essa eu acho particularmente bonitinha. A letra é… emblemática.

Cover Me

while i crawl into the unknown
cover me
i’m going hunting for mysteries
cover me

i’m going to prove the possible really exists

this is really dangerous
cover me
but worth all the effort
cover me

i’m going to prove the impossible really exists

Surtei véi…

Hide Away - Mick jagger

Hide away
Hide away

Make sure that I never come back
Disappear and I never come back

I’m gonna pack up all my bags
Vanish while I can
Gonna leave this town behind
Pay it all no mind
I’m gonna fly away
And no one’s gonna find me

Keep my destination quiet
Take an early morning flight
Never tell a soul
Just light out on my own
I’m gonna fly away
And no one’s gonna find me

I’m gonna wear some fake disguise
Change the colour of my eyes
Yes I’m going hide away
And you’re gonna be surprised
I’ll be wise before my time
I’m going hide away

Make sure that I never come back
Disappear and I never come back
Make sure that I never come back
Disappear and I never come back

I’m gonna rent a small hotel
Throw away my cell
Cut off all my hair
Sweep away my cares
I’m gonna fly away
And no one’s ever gonna find me

I’m out of everybody’s reach
Out on some twisted beach
I’m gonna hide away
Dissolve right out this scene
Out of everybody’s dreams
I’m gonna hide away
Hide away [cont]

Hide away

Make sure that I never come back
Disappear and I never come back
Make sure that I never come back
Disappear and I never come back

Que Dave Grohl é um dos maiores gritadores da música, ninguém discorda. Mas de vez em quando ele canta mais baixinho e é ótimo.

Obrigada, meninos. Eu vou ficar bem.

Times Like These - Foo Fighters

I, I’m a one way motorway,
I’m a road that drives away, then follows you back home.
I, I’m a street light shining,
I’m a white light blinding bright, burning off alone.

Chorus:
It’s times like these you learn to live again,
It’s times like these you give and give again.
It’s times like these you learn to love again,
It’s times like these time and time again.

I, I’m a new day rising,
I’m a brand new sky that hang the stars upon tonight.
I, I’m a little divided,
Do I stay or run away and leave it all behind

O que eu tinha pra falar, já foi dito no post anterior, mas dessa vez acho que isso se estende a Blogagi.
WE would die tonight, for you to feel alive.
Fica bem, mulé.

In Your Honor - Foo Fighters

Can you hear me?
Hear me screaming
Breaking in the muted sky
This thunder heart
Like bombs beating
Echoing a thousand miles

Mine is yours and yours is mine
There is no divide
In your honor I would die tonight
Mine is yours and yours is mine
I will sacrifice
In your honor I would die tonight
For you to feel alive

Can you feel me?
Feel me breathing
One last breathe before I close my eyes
This offering
For receiving
Deliver me into the other side

Mine is yours and yours is mine
There is no divide
In your honor I would die tonight
Mine is yours and yours is mine
I will sacrifice
In your honor I would die tonight

For you to feel alive
For you to feel alive
For you to feel alive
For you to feel alive
