Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd

Comfortably Numb
(Gilmour, Waters)


Hello?
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone at home?
Come on, now,
I hear you're feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain
Get you on your feet again.
Relax.
I'll need some information first.
Just the basic facts.
Can you show me where it hurts?

There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship, smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying.
When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain you would not understand
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.

O.K.
Just a little pinprick.
There'll be no more aaaaaaaaah!
But you may feel a little sick.
Can you stand up?
I do believe it's working, good.
That'll keep you going through the show
Come on it's time to go.

There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship, smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying.
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown,
The dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.

Elevation - U2

cuando se ponen artisticos son un rato espectaculares, (no me mateis por no poner nada del joshua tree por el aniversario)



Elevation
Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton, Larry Mullen Jr.

High, higher than the sun
You shoot me from a gun
I need you to elevate me here,
At the corner of your lips
As the orbit of your hips
Eclipse, you elevate my soul

I've lost all self-control
Been living like a mole
Now going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation

A star lit up like a cigar
Strung out like a guitar
Maybe you could educate my mind
Explain all these controls
I can't sing but I've got soul
The goal is elevation

A mole, living in a hole
Digging up my soul
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation

Love, lift me out of these blues
Won't you tell me something true
I believe in you

A mole, living in a hole
Digging up my soul
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation
Elevation...
Elevation...
Elevation...
Elevation...
Elevation...
Elevation...

Cuando es tan obvio que me adelanto y otros se llevan el merito

hoy en bajo la mascara han posteado lo siguiente sobre la nueva saga de spiderman, el tema me suena, porque eso ya lo hice yo hace mas de un año en la cancion de la semana, asi que escribo un comentario alli que borran y no dejan publicar en el que señalaba que era tan antiguo que no habian descubierto la polvora

cosa que no me extraña, pues con la semana anterior de cancion de la semana ya me hicieron una igual

por eso recalco: Cuando es tan obvio que me adelanto y otros se llevan el merito

LOS MAESTROS CERVECEROS

copio lo que escribí en el foro de Tierra de Heroes, pagina de cabecera donde empezó casi todo, lo que podría considerarse un pseudo- articulo:

buenas, niños, vamos con la clase, cada vacaciones me propongo releer algo, y esta navidad ha sido lo que vamos a tratar

Hoy voy a hablaros de una serie cumbre en el europeo, que además de numerosos premios consiguió tal popularidad y reconocimiento que se hizo serie de televisión solo disponible para francófonos y un libro que vendió demasiado bien, pero no tanto como el cómic, y además tiene el favor de estar escrita por el que probablemente sea el mejor guionista europeo actual y gustar a practicamente cualquier tipo de publico, incluso al mas exigente (a la gente que no le gusta son los van por los salones disfrazados de naruto)

Voy a hablaros de una Obra Fundamental (tal vez maestra), LOS MAESTROS CERVECEROS

En los guiones tenemos a Jean Van Hamme, un tío que curso estudios con matricula de honor, consiguiendo trabajos en las mejores empresas y ganando mucha pasta, hasta que un día decidió que eso le aburría porque a él lo que le fascinaba era la BD, así que lo dejo todo y se puso a escribir, y así tenemos los nuevos Blake y Mortimer, Largo Winch (en los que incluso dibuja), Luna de guerra, Thorgal, XIII y la serie que nos ocupa

y en el dibujo tenemos a otro clásico,Francis Vallès, pero que en España es difícil de encontrar trabajos suyos por esto que no le citare ninguno

con estos antecedentes vayamos a la historia, que intentare no destrozar puesto que perdería la magia de sorprender, la historia que nos ocupa es, pese al enigmático comienzo, sobre una familia dedicada a la fabricación de ese oro liquido que nos trae locos, la cerveza, cada historia es autoconclusiva pero leídas en conjunto y en orden nos llevan durante algo mas de 150 años de tramas, giros inesperados, y emoción que nos muestran un fresco humano fundamentado en los personajes y el desarrollo de los acontecimientos pese al destino y las dificultades de cada momento histórico

lo que mas me gusta de la historia son 2 aspectos fundamentales

La recreación del mundo de la cerveza, los que trabajeis como yo en este mundo apreciareis los datos y referencias que se hacen continuamente, y los que no descubrireis este mundillo y sus particularidades y curiosidades pues se vive toda la transformación de la cerveza, desde un tiempo en que la producción de la cerveza era artesanal y como se van descubriendo los avances gracias a visionarios como gerard heineken y Carlsberg que hacen posible que tengamos cerveza fría en nuestras casas además de la exactitud técnica que muestra

y la historia donde no te dejan aburrirte, tienes desde tramas de matiz folletinesco a pura acción bien aderezadas con ingredientes humanos y personajes entrañables con un carácter fuerte y propio que dejan en segundo plano el mundo del bebercio que sirve como hilo conductor de las andanzas familiares, lo tiene todo, amor, celos, traiciones, avaricia, lujuria, rivalidades, rencor...

y en el dibujo tenemos un estilo preciosita y detallista con estética puramente europea, y por si fuera poco cuenta con una narración que te mete en la historia, algo que ya quisieran muchos dibujantes

en el ultimo numero se incluye el especial que es muy interesante que hará que disfrutéis con lo que habéis leído sin daros cuenta

la única pega que tengo, aunque para algunos sera todo lo contrario, es la edición española de planeta, el formato algo reducido y las tapas blandas, además de no incluir todas las portadas originales, pero gracias a esto se consigue lo siguiente: que se incluyan 2 números en cada tomo y que cuesten solo 7,50€, aunque yo pagaría por tenerlos en un integral en formato europeo como dios manda

Solo son 4 números en el formato que he dicho arriba a 7,50€ cada uno, una compra obligada que te engancha desde las primeras paginas, para mi un imprescindible, espero que con esto os estéis planteando comprarlo, y si no es el caso decidlo que os daré mejores argumentos, pero si lo hacéis no os arrepentiréis, si no que me comprareis un jamón pata negra como agradecimiento (mas quisiera yo)

When the Sun Goes Down - Arctic Monkeys

When The Sun Goes Down
Arctic Monkeys

Who's that girl there?
I wonder what went wrong
So that she had to roam the streets
She dunt do major credit cards
I doubt she does receipts
It's all not quite legitimate

And what a scummy man
Just give him half a chance
I bet he'll rob you if he can
Can see it in his eyes,
That he's got a driving ban
Amongst some other offences

And I've seen him with girls of the night
And he told Roxanne to put on her red light
It’s all infected but he'll be alright
Cause he's a scumbag, don't you know
I said he's a scumbag, don't you know!

Although you're trying not to listen
Overt your eyes and staring at the ground
She makes a subtle proposition
“Sorry love I'll have to turn you down”

He must be up to something
What are the chances sure it’s more than likely
I've got a feeling in my stomach
I start to wonder what his story might be

They said it changes when the sun goes down
Around here

Look here comes a Ford Mondeo
Isn't he Mister Inconspicuous?
And he don't have to say 'owt
She’s in the stance ready to get picked up

Bet she's delighted when she sees him
Pulling in and giving her the eye
Because she must be fucking freezing
Scantily clad beneath the clear night sky
It doesn't stop in the winter, no
Around here

They said it changes when the sun goes down
Over the river going out of town

What a scummy man
Just give him half a chance
I bet he'll rob you if he can
Can see it in his eyes that he's got a nasty plan
I hope you're not involved at all

Hueco de la pared

Desde el principio de los tiempos, o hasta donde mi memoria alcanza, siempre ha habido un cuadro colgado de la pared de mi habitacion, hace años que por vergüenza ajena cada vez que va una visita pienso en taparlo, pero nunca lo he hecho, es infantil (relativamente) y esta descolorido, pero lo he ido dejando hasta que el otro dia alguien sugirio que deberia qutiarlo, dije que de esta no pasaba

lo primero que hice fue ir corriendo a comprarme un poster de Abbey Road, y al volver contento con él quite el cuadro y me decidi a pegar el poster, pero era muy grande con lo que se comia la mitad de los posters del alrededor

viendo este fracaso busque otro poster, tambien de los Beatles, mas pequeño, volvi a casa, quite el cuadro, y lo pegue, pero no quedaba bien, seguia siendo grande, y ademas en la pared se notaba donde habia estado el anterior cuadro, ademas de sobresalir las alcayatas, que al quitarlas lie la de Tejero pegando tiros en el congreso, asi que volvi a poner las alcayatas y guarde el poster con el otro

tercer intento, mantener el cuadro pero cambair el dibujo, para eso me hice con un poster de una revista, lo recorte para reducirle tamaño y relleno con la esperanza de hacer un puzzle adecuado para el tamaño, un cuarto no cabe y jode lo demas...

asi estoy a dia de hoy, buscando opciones alternativas con las que poder terminar con este Hueco en la pared o una ingenieria valida para estos casos

I've Just Seen a Face - The Beatles

quiero ver la pelicula, solo por curiosidad, que a mi me gusta mas la original





I've Just Seen a Face
John Lennon/Paul McCartney

I've just seen a face
I can't forget the time or place
Where we just meet,
She's just a girl for me
and I want all the world to see
We've met.

Had it been another day
I might have looked the other way
And I'd have never been aware,
But as it is I'll dream of her tonight.

Falling yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

I have never known
The like of this, I've been alone
And I have missed things
And kept out of sight,
for other girls were never quite
Like this

Falling yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

Falling yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

I've just seen a face
I can't forget the time or place
Where we just meet,
She's just a girl for me
and I want all the world to see
We've met.

Falling yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

Falling yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

Falling yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

Celtic New Year - Van Morrison

un año nuevo para intentar que nuestros sueños se hagan realidad, disfrutadlo



Celtic New Year
Van Morrison

Don’t lose the wonder in your eyes
I can see it right now when you smile
Let me go back, for a while
Let me go back, for a while
To that magic time

You can call it nostalgia, I don’t mind
Standing on that windswept hillside
Listenin’ to the church bells chime
Listen to the church bells chime
In that magic time

Oh the road it never ends
Good to see you my old friend
Once again we sit right down and share the wine

Shivers up and down my spine
It’s a feeling so divine
Let me go back for a while
Got to back for a while
To that magic time

Oh the road it never ends
Good to see you my old friend
Once again we’ll sit down and share the wine

And we’ll go back in your prime
The sun is gonna shine
When we go back for a while
When we go back for a while
To that magic time

Don’t lose the wonder in your eyes
It’s right there when you smile
Got to go back, for a while
Got to go back, for a while
To that magic time

Call it nostalgia, I don’t mind
Standing on that windswept hillside
Listenin’ to the church bells chime
Listenin’ to the church bells chime
In that magic time

If we go back, for a while
Let me go back, for a while
To that magic time

Merry Christmas (I Don't Want To Fight Tonight)
Joey Ramone

Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight with...

Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight
Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight
Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight with you

Where is Santa at his sleigh?
Tell me why is it always this way?
Where is Rudolph? Where is Blitzen, baby?
Merry Christmas, merry merry merry Christmas

All the children are tucked in their beds
Sugar-plum fairies dancing in their heads
Snowball fighting, it's so exciting baby

I love you and you love me
And that's the way it's got to be
I loved you from the start
'Cause Christmas ain't the time for breaking each other's heart

Rebel Rebel - David Bowie

Rebel Rebel
David Bowie


Doo doo doo-doo doo doo doo doo (3 times)
You've got your mother in a whirl
She's not sure if you're a boy or a girl
Hey babe, your hair's alright
Hey babe, let's go out tonight
You like me, and I like it all
We like dancing and we look divine
You love bands when they're playing hard
You want more and you want it fast
They put you down, they say I'm wrong
You tacky thing, you put them on
CHORUS
Rebel Rebel, you've torn your dress
Rebel Rebel, your face is a mess
Rebel Rebel, how could they know?
Hot tramp, I love you so!

You can't get enough, but enough ain't the test
You've got your transmission and your live wire
You got your cue line and a handful of ludes
You wanna be there when they count up the dudes
And I love your dress
You're a juvenile success
Because your face is a mess
So how could they know?
I said, how could they know?
So what you wanna know
Calamity's child, chi-chile, chi-chile
Where'd you wanna go?
What can I do for you? Looks like you've been there too
'Cause you've torn your dress
And your face is a mess
Ooo, your face is a mess
Ooo, ooo, so how could they know?
Eh, eh, how could they know?
Eh, eh

She´s A Rainbow - The Rolling Stones

se que ella no conoce esto, se que ella jamas lo sabra, jamas lo leera, pero ella tiene esta cancion dedicada, pues ella es todo vitalidad, incluso en la mañana mas gris al verla la vida se llena de color

She's A Rainbow
(Jagger/Richards)

She comes in colors ev'rywhere;
She combs her hair
She's like a rainbow
Coming, colors in the air
Oh, everywhere
She comes in colors
She comes in colors ev'rywhere;
She combs her hair
She's like a rainbow
Coming, colors in the air
Oh, everywhere
She comes in colors
Have you seen her dressed in blue?
See the sky in front of you
And her face is lik a sail
Speck of white so fair and pale
Have you seen a lady fairer?
She comes in colors ev'rywhere;
She combs her hair
She's like a rainbow
Coming, colors in the air
Oh, everywhere
She comes in colors
Have you seen her all in gold?
Like a queen in days of old
She shoots her colors all around
Like a sunset going down
Have you seen a lady fairer?
She comes in colors ev'rywhere;
She combs her hair
She's like a rainbow
Coming, colors in the air
Oh, everywhere
She comes in colors
She's like a rainbow
Coming, colors in the air
Oh, everywhere
She comes in colors

The Show Must Go On - Queen

la semana pasada era el aniversario de la muerte y se me olvido, pero como ayer fue el dia del sida pues lo pongo como homenaje




The Show Must Go On
Queen

Empty spaces - what are we living for
Abandoned places - I guess we know the score
On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for...
Another hero, another mindless crime
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime
Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore
The show must go on
The show must go on, yeah
Inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on

Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance
Another heartache, another failed romance
On and on, does anybody know what we are living for ?
I guess I'm learning (I'm learning learning learning)
I must be warmer now
I'll soon be turning (turning turning turning)
Round the corner now
Outside the dawn is breaking
But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free
The show must go on
The show must go on, yeah yeah
Ooh, inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on

Yeah yeah, whoa wo oh oh

My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
Fairytales of yesterday will grow but never die
I can fly - my friends
The show must go on (go on, go on, go on) yeah yeah
The show must go on (go on, go on, go on)
I'll face it with a grin
I'm never giving in
On - with the show

Ooh, I'll top the bill, I'll overkill
I have to find the will to carry on
On with the show
On with the show
The show - the show must go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on

Do The Evolution - Pearl Jam

Do The Evolution
VEDDER/GOSSARD

Woo...
I'm ahead, I'm a man
I'm the first mammal to wear pants, yeah
I'm at peace with my lust
I can kill 'cause in God I trust, yeah
It's evolution, baby

I'm at peace, I'm the man
Buying stocks on the day of the crash
On the loose, I'm a truck
All the rolling hills, I'll flatten 'em out, yeah
It's herd behavior, uh huh
It's evolution, baby

Admire me, admire my home
Admire my son, he's my clone
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This land is mine, this land is free
I'll do what I want but irresponsibly
It's evolution, baby

I'm a thief, I'm a liar
There's my church, I sing in the choir:
(hallelujah, hallelujah)

Admire me, admire my home
Admire my son, admire my clones
'Cause we know, appetite for a nightly feast
Those ignorant Indians got nothin' on me
Nothin', why?
Because... it's evolution, baby!

I am ahead, I am advanced
I am the first mammal to make plans, yeah
I crawled the earth, but now I'm higher
2010, watch it go to fire
It's evolution, baby
Do the evolution
Come on, come on, come on

I'll Stand By You - The Pretenders

vamos con retraso con una de las mejores voces femeninas que conozco



I´ll Stand By You
Chrissie Hynde, Billy Steinberg, Tom Kelly

Oh, Why you look so sad?
The tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
But don't be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
Cause I've seen the dark side too.
When the night falls on you
You don't know what to do
Nothing you confess
could make me love you less

I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you

So,
If your mad, get mad
Don't hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
But hey, what you've got to hide
I get angry too
But I'm a lot like you
When you're standing at the crossroads
Don't know which path to choose
Let me come along
Cause even if your wrong...

I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
And when,
When the night falls on you baby
Your feeling all alone
Walking on your own

I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you

The Pretender - Foo Fighters

The Pretender
Foo Fighters

Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend
Keep you in the dark
And so it all began

Send in your skeletons
Sing as their bones go marching in... again
The need you buried deep
The secrets that you keep are ever ready
Are you ready?
I'm finished making sense
Done pleading ignorance
That whole defense

Spinning infinity, boy
The wheel is spinning me
It's never-ending, never-ending
Same old story

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

In time or so i'm told
I'm just another soul for sale... oh, well
The page is out of print
We are not permanent
We're temporary, temporary
Same old story

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?


I'm the voice inside your head
You refuse to hear
I'm the face that you have to face
Mirrored in your stare
I'm what's left, I'm what's right
I'm the enemy
I'm the hand that will take you down
Bring you to your knees

So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?

Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
(Keep you in the dark)
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
(You know they all... pretend)
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
(Keep you in the dark)
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
(You know they all... pretend)
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?

Un Funeral de Muerte

el otro dia fui al cine, y vi UN FUNERAL DE MUERTE que es una comedia britanica con toques americanos de humor negro y absurdo, eche en falta algun tipo Eric Idle o john Cleese, pero es la hostia la peli, un harton de reir hasta que te duele el estomago y acabas en el suelo, impresionante

como dato friki, su director es Yoda, pelicula de garantia

I Need You - The Beatles

Mañana sale en dvd la pelicula de HELP!, remasterizada, y es una buena pelicula de los beatles, absurda, divertida, pero sobre todo con buena musica



I Need You
Harrison

You don't realize how much I need you,
love you all the time and never leave you.
Please come on back to me,
I'm lonely as can be,
I need you.

Said you had a thing or two to tell me.
How was I to know you would upset me?
I didn't realize,
as I looked in your eyes,
You told me

Oh yes you told me, you don't want my loving anymore.
That's when it hurt me, and feeling like this
I just can't go on anymore.

Please remember how I feel about you,
I could never really live without you.

So come on back and see,
just what you mean to me,
I need you.

Love Reign O'er Me - The Who

hoy vamos con un video bastante especial, los who con una de sus mejores canciones y que ha pasado muy desapercibida para el gran publico, para mi es una cancion llena de significado, no solo por que me gusta y que es muy buena cancion, si no que cuando me viene a la cabeza cuando sin darme cuenta me quedo mirando a una chica y entonces es cuando me doy cuenta de los efectos del amor y de la malicia que tiene al enamorarme en los momentos mas inoportunos, por eso me hace gracia pensar que el amor reina sobre mi cuando la cancion me viene a la cabeza en esos momentos




Love Reign O'Er Me
Pete Townshend

Only love, can make it rain
The way the beach is kissed by the sea
Only love can make it rain
Like the sweat of lovers
Laying in the fields

Love, reign o'er me
Love, reign o'er me, reign o'er me.

Only love can bring the rain
That makes you yearn to the sky
Only love can bring the rain
That falls like tears from on high

Love, love reign o'er me, reign o'er me
Love, reign o'er me, reign o'er me

On the dry and dusty road
The nights we spent apart alone
I need to get back home
To cool. cool rain
I can't sleep and lay and I think
The nights are hot and black as ink
Oh God, I need a drink
Of cool, cool rain.

Love, love, love reign o'er me, reign o'er me
Love reign o'er me
Love, love, love reign o'er me, reign on me
Reign on me

Love...

Sobre el video anterior y otros menesteres

he colgado un video de los artic monkeys que corresponde a la semana pasada, mañana o al otro colgare el de esta semana, en la cancion de la semana, la unica seccion fija que tiene cierta regularidad

el caso es que viendo videos de los monos articos me he acordado del jovial joker en su video de Fluorescent Adolescent, parece que no soy el unico al que le gustan los payasos desquiciados y violentos

tambien queria aprovechar y disculparme por tener el blog un poco abandonado, pero entre los estudios, el trabajo, los tdh y que estoy haciendo mi primer comic pues como comprendereis ando algo ajustado

The view from the afternoon - Arctic Monkeys

The View From The Afternoon
Artic Monkeys

Anticipation has the habit to set you up
For disappointment in evening entertainment but
Tonight there’ll be some love
Tonight there’ll be a rawkus, regardless of what’s gone before
I want to see all of the things that we’ve already seen
The lairy girls hung out the window of the limousine
And of course its fancy dress
And they’re all looking quite full on
In bunny ears and devil horns

I want to see all of the things that we’ve already seen
I want to see you take the jackpot out the fruit machine
And put it all back in
You’ve got to understand it you can never beat the bandit

And she won’t be surprised and she won_t be shocked
When she’s pressed the star after she_s pressed unlock
And there’s verse and chapter sat in her inbox
And all that it says is that you’ve drank a lot
You should bear that in mind tonight
You can pour your heart out but her reasoning will block
owt you send her after nine o clock

You can pour your heart out around 3 o clock
When the 2 for 1’s undone the writers block

Under my Skin - Frank Sinatra & Bono

dueto de la voz con la de U2, cancion de Cole porter



I've Got You Under My Skin
Cole Porter

I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart
That you're really a part of me.

I've got you under my skin
I'd tried so not to give in
I said to myself:
This affair never will go so well.

But why should I try to resist
When, baby, I know so well
I've got you under my skin?

I'd sacrifice anything
Come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of a warnin' voice
That comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear:

"Don't you know, little fool,
You never can win?
Use your mentality,
Wake up to reality."

But each time that I do
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin.

[ instrumental ]

I would sacrifice anything
Come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of the warnin' voice
That comes in the night
And repeats - how it yells in my ear:

"Don't you know, little fool,
You never can win?
Why not use your mentality,
Step up, wake up to reality?"

But each time I do
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin.
Yes, I've got you under my skin.

I Am The Walrus - The Beatles

psicodelico video, pero una gran cancion en el aniversario del cumpleaños de Lennon



I Am The Walrus
Lennon/McCartney

I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together.
See how they run like pigs from a gun, see how they fly.
I'm crying.

Sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the van to come.
Corporation tee-shirt, stupid bloody Tuesday.
Man, you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long.
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.
I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob.

Mister City Policeman sitting
Pretty little policemen in a row.
See how they fly like Lucy in the Sky, see how they run.

I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.
I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob.
Goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob g'goo.

Ramble On - Led Zeppelin

me ha hecho gracia, el hobbit y Led Zeppelin



Ramble On
(Page/Plant)

Leaves are falling all around, It's time I was on my way.
Thanks to you, I'm much obliged for such a pleasant stay.
But now it's time for me to go. The autumn moon lights my way.
For now I smell the rain, and with it pain, and it's headed my way.
Sometimes I grow so tired, but I know I've got one thing I got to do...

*Ramble On, And now's the time, the time is now, to sing my song.
I'm goin' 'round the world, I got to find my girl, on my way.
I've been this way ten years to the day, Ramble On,
Gotta find the queen of all my dreams.

Got no time to for spreadin' roots, The time has come to be gone.
And to' our health we drank a thousand times, it's time to Ramble On.

* Chorus

Mine's a tale that can't be told, my freedom I hold dear.
How years ago in days of old, when magic filled the air.
T'was in the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair.
But Gollum, and the evil one crept up and slipped away with her, her, her....yeah.

* Chorus

Gonna ramble on, sing my song. Gotta keep-a-searchin' for my baby...
Gonna work my way, round the world. I can't stop this feelin' in my heart
Gotta keep searchin' for my baby. I can't find my bluebird!

En plena calle

iba a arenal desde gran via, y nada mas entrar en arenal, al girar la esquina de la manzana, me veo obligado a frenar precipitadamente al salir unas niñas pequeñas de color moreno hablando una lengua extranjera de un portal corriendo como posesas, y veo que van y se plantan al lado de una madre rubia y blanca llevando un cochecito de bebe que estaban a unos 15 metros de mi y el portal, y atonito me quedo cuando la mayor mete la mano en el bolsillo del abrigo de cuero de dicha madre, sacando un objeto (con forma de cartera o algo por el estilo) y saliendo disimuladamente de su lado para alejarse y perderse entre el gentio, mi grito de aviso a la señora les alertó y salieron huyendo mientras se me quedaba una cara de gilipollas

que mal esta esta antes gran ciudad que ya hasta los niños pierden su inocencia y pasividad para convertirse en criminales porque no hay policias gracias a que somos la penultima comunidad española en ayudas pese a ser una de las de mayor poblacion, ayudas tan pequeñas que niguna esta relacionada con la poblacion, si no que el gobierno nos quita ayudas (cito textualmente) "por no preservar el ebro y el jucar" (rios muy madrileños, por supuesto, tanto que uno va por aragon y cataluña y el otro por valencia), muchas gracias señor gobierno, por su culpa han robado a una madre mientras paseaba a su bebe, gracias por convertir el lugar donde vivo en la viva imagen de la decadencia y la delincuencia

Un Rostro en la Multitud

a veces te surgen preguntas que ya te has hecho y que creiste dar por respondidas, por eso cuando me preguntan quien soy, yo les contesto: "Un Rostro en la Multitud"

Jeremy - Pearl Jam

vamos con una gran cancion existencial que tiene el orgullo de ser la que mas suicidios adoelscentes ha provocado



Jeremy
AMENT/ VEDDER

At home
Drawing pictures
Of mountain tops
With him on top
Lemon yellow sun
Arms raised in a V
The dead lay in pools of maroon below

Daddy didn't give attention
To the fact that mommy didn't care
King Jeremy the wicked
Ruled his world

Jeremy spoke in class today
Jeremy spoke in class today

Clearly I remember
Pickin' on the boy
Seemed a harmless little fuck
Oh, but we unleashed a lion
Gnashed his teeth
And bit the recess lady's breast
How could I forget
He hit me with a surprise left
My jaw left hurtin
Oh, dropped wide open
Just like the day
Like the day I heard

Daddy didn't give affection
And the boy was something mommy wouldn't wear
King Jeremy the wicked
Ruled his world

Jeremy spoke in class today
Jeremy spoke in class today
Jeremy spoke in class today

Try to forget this... (try to forget this)
Try to erase this... (try to erase this)
From the blackboard

Jeremy spoke in class today
Jeremy spoke in class today

Free Bird - Lynyrd Skynyrd

Free Bird
(allen collins - ronnie vanzant)

If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be travelling on, now,
cause theres too many places Ive got to see.
But, if I stayed here with you, girl,
Things just couldnt be the same.
cause Im as free as a bird now,
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I cant change.

Bye, bye, its been a sweet love.
Though this feeling I cant change.
But please dont take it badly,
cause lord knows Im to blame.
But, if I stayed here with you girl,
Things just couldnt be the same.
Cause Im as free as a bird now,
And this bird youll never change.
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I cant change.
Lord help me, I cant change.

Fortunate Son - Creedence Clearwater Revival

una de las escenas mas graciosas de la ultima de John McClane tiene que ver con que le gusta esta cancion

Fortunate Son
John Fogerty

Some folks are born made to wave the flag,
Ooh, theyre red, white and blue.
And when the band plays hail to the chief,
Ooh, they point the cannon at you, lord,

It aint me, it aint me, I aint no senators son, son.
It aint me, it aint me; I aint no fortunate one, no,

Yeah!
Some folks are born silver spoon in hand,
Lord, dont they help themselves, oh.
But when the taxman comes to the door,
Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale, yes,

It aint me, it aint me, I aint no millionaires son, no.
It aint me, it aint me; I aint no fortunate one, no.

Some folks inherit star spangled eyes,
Ooh, they send you down to war, lord,
And when you ask them, how much should we give?
Ooh, they only answer more! more! more! yoh,

It aint me, it aint me, I aint no military son, son.
It aint me, it aint me; I aint no fortunate one, one.

It aint me, it aint me, I aint no fortunate one, no no no,
It aint me, it aint me, I aint no fortunate son, no no no,

Me han publicado

que felicidad, publicado esta: aqui, aqui y aqui

joder, si estoy asi no quiero ni imaginar como estaré cuando publiquen un libro mio (no lo imagino porque lo sé: Borracho)

¿hay vida ahi fuera?

pues lo que dice el titulo, que pense que al llegar septiembre ya volveria todo el mundo, pero me equivoque, hay menos gente aun... que misterioso es este unvierso que esta todo vacio pese a ser tan grande

Spanish Bombs - The Clash

Spanish Bombs
Strummer/Jones

Spanish songs in Andalucia
The shooting sites in the days of '39
Oh, please, leave the ventana open
Fredrico Lorca is dead and gone
Bullet holes in the cemetery walls
The black cars of the Guardia Civil
Spanish bombs on the Costa Rica
I'm flying in a DC 10 tonight

[Chorus]
Spanish bombs, yo te quiero infinito
yo te quiero oh mi corazón
Spanish bombs, yo te quiero infinito
yo te quiero oh mi corazón

Spanish weeks in my disco casino
The freedom fighters died upon the hill
They sang the red flag
They wore the black one
But after they died it was Mockingbird Hill
Back home the buses went up in flashes
The Irish tomb was drenched in blood
Spanish bombs shatter the hotels
My senorita's rose was nipped in the bud

[Chorus]

The hillsides ring with "Free the people"
Or can I hear the echo from the days of '39?
With trenches full of poets
The ragged army, fixin' bayonets to fight the other line
Spanish bombs rock the province
I'm hearing music from another time
Spanish bombs on the Costa Brava
I'm flying in on a DC 10 tonight

[Chorus]
Spanish songs in Andalucia, Mandolina, oh mi corazon
Spanish songs in Granada, oh mi corazon

All You Need Is Love - The Beatles

recientemente le preguntaron a Brian May (Queen) qué banda sonora le pondria al planeta Tierra, el contesto que All You Need Is Love, yo le doy la razon al estar de acuerdo, y asi empezamos el segundo año de la canción de la semana



All You Need is Love
George Harrison/John Lennon/Paul McCartney

Love, Love, Love.
Love, Love, Love.
Love, Love, Love.

There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung.
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game.
It's easy.

Nothing you can make that can't be made.
No one you can save that can't be saved.
Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time.
It's easy.

Chorus:
All you need is love.
All you need is love.
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need.

Chorus

Nothing you can know that isn't known.
Nothing you can see that isn't shown.
Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be.
It's easy.

Chorus

All you need is love (All together, now!)
All you need is love (Everybody!)
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need (love is all you need).

Jailhouse Rock - Elvis Presley

este mes de agosto se cumplieron los 30 aniversarios del fallecimiento de Elvis y el Gran Groucho, aqui estan los homenajes



Jailhouse Rock
jerry leiber/mike stoller

The warden threw a party in the county jail.
The prison band was there and they began to wail.
The band was jumpin and the joint began to swing.
You shouldve heard those knocked out jailbirds sing.
Lets rock, everybody, lets rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin to the jailhouse rock.

Spider murphy played the tenor saxophone,
Little joe was blowin on the slide trombone.
The drummer boy from illinois went crash, boom, bang,
The whole rhythm section was the purple gang.
Lets rock, everybody, lets rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin to the jailhouse rock.

Number forty-seven said to number three:
Youre the cutest jailbird I ever did see.
I sure would be delighted with your company,
Come on and do the jailhouse rock with me.
Lets rock, everybody, lets rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin to the jailhouse rock.

The sad sack was a sittin on a block of stone
Way over in the corner weepin all alone.
The warden said, hey, buddy, dont you be no square.
If you cant find a partner use a wooden chair.
Lets rock, everybody, lets rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin to the jailhouse rock.

Shifty henry said to bugs, for heavens sake,
No ones lookin, nows our chance to make a break.
Bugsy turned to shifty and he said, nix nix,
I wanna stick around a while and get my kicks.
Lets rock, everybody, lets rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin to the jailhouse rock.

Always Look on the Bright Side of Life - Monty Python

terminan las vacaciones este año, adios a la playa, al sol y el buen tiempo, a las horas de vagueria donde desayunar puede tardar media hora, y ahora la vuelta al trabajo, el fin de todo lo bueno esperando a que pase un año, solo me queda resignarme, como Brian con esta genial cancion de una genial pelicula



Always Look on the Bright Side of Life

Monty Python en "La vida de Brian"

Cheer up, Brian. You know what they say.
Some things in life are bad,
They can really make you mad.
Other things just make you swear and curse.
When you're chewing on life's gristle,
Don't grumble, give a wistle!
And this'll help things turn out for the best...
And...

(the music fades into the song)

...always look on the bright side of life!
(whistle)

Always look on the bright side of life...
If life seems jolly rotten,
There's something you've forgotten!
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing,

When you're feeling in the dumps,
Don't be silly chumps,
Just purse your lips and whistle -- that's the thing!
And... always look on the bright side of life...

(whistle)
Come on!

(other start to join in)
Always look on the bright side of life...
(whistle)

For life is quite absurd,
And death's the final word.
You must always face the curtain with a bow!
Forget about your sin -- give the audience a grin,
Enjoy it -- it's the last chance anyhow!

So always look on the bright side of death!
Just before you draw your terminal breath.
Life's a piece of shit,
When you look at it.

Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true,
You'll see it's all a show,
Keep 'em laughing as you go.
Just remember that the last laugh is on you!

And always look on the bright side of life...
(whistle)
Always look on the bright side of life
(whistle)

Evil Woman - Electric Light Orchestra

Evil Woman
Jeff Lynne

You made a fool of me, but them broken dreams have got to end.

Hey woman, you got the blues, cos' you ain't got no one else to use.
here's an open road that leads nowhere, so just make some miles
between here and there.
There's a hole in my head where the rain comes in,
You took my body and played to win,
Ha Ha woman it's a crying shame,
But you ain't got no one else to blame.

CHORUS
E-evil Woman, E-evil Woman, E-evil Woman, Evil Woman

Rolled in from another town,
Hit some gold too hot to settle down,
But a fool and his money soon go separate ways,
And you found a fool lyin' in a daze,
Ha Ha woman what you gonna do,
You destroyed all the virtues that the Lord gave you,
It's so good that you're feeling pain,
But you better get yourself on board the very next train.

CHORUS:REPEAT

Evil woman how you done me wrong,
But now you're tryin' to wail a different song,
Ha Ha funny how you broke me up, you made the wine now you
drink the cup,
I came runnin' every time you cried,
Thought I saw love smilin' in your eyes,
Ha Ha very nice to know, that you ain't got no place left to go.

CHORUS:REPEAT

Adivinad...

... que pelicula tan esperada me pierdo este verano
