Blur - Parklife

El video más estúpido y chistoso de Blur… I love it!
Confidence is a preference for the habitual voyeur of what is known as (parklife)
And morning soup can be avoided if you take a route straight through what is known as (parklife)
John’s got brewers droop he gets intimidated by the dirty pigeons they love a bit of it (parklife)
Who’s that gut lord marching… you should cut down on your porklife mate… get some exercise

All the people
So many people
They all go hand in hand
Hand in hand through their parklife

(Know what I mean)
I get up when I want except on wednesdays when I get rudely awakened by the dustmen (parklife)
I put my trousers on, have a cup of tea and I think about leaving the house (parklife)
I feed the pigeons I sometimes feed the sparrows too
it gives me a sense of enormous well being (parklife)
And then i’m happy for the rest of the day safe in the knowledge
there will always be a bit of my heart devoted to it (parklife)

All the people
So many people
They all go hand in hand
Hand in hand through their parklife

Parklife (parklife)
Parklife (parklife)

It’s got nothing to do with vorsprung durch technic you know
And it’s not about you joggers who go round and round and round
Parklife (parklife)

All the people
So many people
They all go hand in hand
Hand in hand through their parklife

The Killers - Read my mind

Esta canción me tiene cantándola cada 10 segundos. Con respecto al video… ¡amo al monito verde!

 

On the corner of main street
Just tryin´ to keep it in line
You say you wanna move on and
You say I´m falling behind

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

I never really gave up on
Breakin´ out of this two-star town
I got the green light
I got a little fight
I´m gonna turn this thing around

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

The good old days, the honest man;
The restless heart, the Promised Land
A subtle kiss that no one sees;
A broken wrist and a big trapeze

Oh well I don´t mind, you don´t mind
Coz I don´t shine if you don´t shine
Before you go, can you read my mind?

Its funny how you just break down
Waitin´ on some sign
I pull up to the front of your driveway
With magic soakin´ my spine

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

The teenage queen, the loaded gun;
The drop dead dream, the Chosen One
A southern drawl, a world unseen;
A city wall and a trampoline

Oh well I don´t mind, you don´t mind
Coz I don´t shine if you don´t shine
Before you go
Tell me what you find when you read my mind

Slippin in my faith until I fall
He never returned that call
Woman, open the door, don´t let it stay
I wanna breathe that fire again

She said
Oh well I don´t mind, you don´t mind
Coz I don´t shine if you don´t shine

Put your back on me
Put your back on me
Put your back on me

The stars are blazing like rebel diamonds cut out of the sun
When you read my mind

Travis - Closer

En general , no me gusta mucho Travis… de hecho, esta es la única canción que realmente me gusta… pero me gusta tanto que es capaz de hacerme volar la cabeza (además… Ben Stiller… xD!)

 

I’ve had enough
Of this parade
I’m thinking of
The words to say
We open up
Unfinished parts
Broken up
It’s so mellow

And when I see you then i know it will be next to me
And when I need you then I know you will be there with me
I’ll never leave you

Just need to get closer, closer
Lean on me now
Lean on me now
Closer, closer
Lean on me now
Lean on me now

Keep waking up (waking up)
Without you here (without you here)
Another day (another day)
Another year (another year)
I seek the truth (seek the truth)
We set apart (we set apart)
Thinking of

A second chance (a second chance)

And when I see you then i know it will be next to me
And when I need you I know you will be there with me
I’ll never leave you

Just need to get closer, closer
Lean on me now
Lean on me now
Closer, closer
Lean on me now
Lean on me now
Lean on me now

And when I see you then i know it will be next to me
And when I need you I know you will be there with me
I’ll never leave you

Just need to get closer, closer
Lean on me now
Lean on me now
Closer, closer
Lean on me now
Lean on me now
Lean on me now

Closer, closer…

Jack Johnson - Taylor

Porque igual tengo mi corazoncito. Me encanta Jack Johnson y lo encuentro lo más ondero del mundo :D

 

They say Taylor was a good girl, never one to be late
complain, express ideas in her brain
working on the night shift, passing out the tickets,
you`re gonna have to pay her if you want to park here

well mommy`s little dancer has quite a little secret
working on the streets now, never gonna keep it
it`s quite an imposition and now she`s only wishing
that she would have listened to the words they said
poor Taylor

she just wanders around, unaffected by
the winter winds and she`ll pretend that
she`s somewhere else, so far and clear
about two thousand miles from here

Peter Patrick pitter patters on the window
but sunny silhouette won`t let him in
poor old Pete`s got nothing because hes been falling
somehow sunny knows just where he`s been

he thinks that singing on sunday is gonna save his soul
now that saturday is gone
sometimes he thinks that he`s on his way
but I can see that his break lights are on

he just wanders around, unaffected by
the winter winds and he`ll pretend that
he`s somewhere else, so far and clear
about two thousand miles from here

such a tough enchilada filled up with nada
giving what she gotta give to get a dollar bill
used to be a limber chicken, times a been a ticking
now she`s finger licking to the man
with the money in his pocket flying in his rocket
only stopping by on his way to a better world

if Taylor finds a better world
then Taylor’s gonna run away

 

Foo Fighters - The Pretender

Una de las pocas canciones nuevas que me gustan de los Foo… una lástima por ellos xD!

 

Keep you in the dark, you know they all pretend

Keep you in the dark and saw it all begin

 

Send in your skeletons

Sing as the bones come marchin` in, again

The knee you buried deep

The secrets that you keep are ever ready, ever ready,

Are you ready?

 

I’m finished making sense

Done pleading ignorance that whole defence

Spending this engery but

The wheel that’s spinnin` me is never ending, never ending

Same old story

 

What if I say you’re not like the others

What if I say you’re not just another one

Look at your face,  you’re the pretender

What if I say I’ll never surrender

 

In time I’m so I’m told

I’m just another soul for sale, oh well

The pages I repress

They are not permanent, they are temporary, temporary,

Same old story

 

What if I say you’re not like the others

What if I say you’re not just another one

Look at your face,  you’re the pretender

What if I say I’ll never surrender

 

I’m the voice inside your head you refuse to hear

I’m the face you have to face mirroring yourself

I’m whats left, I’m whats right, I’m the enemy

I’m the hand that takes you down and brings you to your knees

 

So who are you?

Yeah who are you?

Yeah who are you?

Yeah who are you?

 

Even in the dark, you know they all pretend

 

What if I say you’re not like the others

What if I say you’re not just another one

Look at your face,  you’re the pretender

What if I say I’ll never surrender

 

So who are you?

Yeah who are you?

Yeah who are you?

Yeah who are you?

 

 

Velvet Revolver - Fall to pieces

La canción más “sufrida” que puede cantar Scott Weiland… una lástima que los Velvet ya no existen. Esta canción tiene la mala capacidad de hacer demostrar mis sentimientos (y el video también)

 

It’s been a long year
Since you’ve been gone
I’ve been alone here
I’ve grown old
I fall to pieces, I’m falling
Fall to pieces and I’m still falling

Every time I’m falling down
All alone I fall to pieces

I keep a journal of memories
I’m feeling lonely, I can’t breathe
I fall to pieces, I’m falling
Fall to pieces and I’m still falling

All the years I’ve tried
With more to go
Will the memories die
I’m waiting
Will I find you
Can I find you
We’re falling down
I’m falling

STP - Interstate Love Song

Porque fue la primera canción que me gustó de los Stone Temple Pilots, porque la canción me identifica tanto que “me da cosa”, porque el video es lo más “nice” del mundo, porque los amo…

Waiting on a Sunday afternoon
For the word I read between the lines
You lied
Feeling like a hand in rusted shame
So do you laugh or does it cry?
Reply?

Leavin’ on a southern train
Only yesterday you lied
Promises of what I seemed to be
Only watched the time go by
All of these things you said to me

Breathing is the hardest thing to do.
With all I’ve said and
all that’s dead for you
You lied… goodbye.

Leavin’ on a southern train
only yesterday, you lied
Promises of what I seemed to be
Only watched the time go by
All of these things I said to you

Blur - Beetlebum

La canción más agonizante y el video más jodidamente romántico de mi lista… ver a Damon Albarn “cortándose las venas por su ex” (Justine Frischmann, cantante de Elastica) no tiene precio…

 

Beetlebum
What you done
She’s a gun
Now what you’ve done
Beetlebum
Get nothing done
You beetlebum
Just get numb
Now what you’ve done
Beetlebum

And when she lets me slip away
She turns me on all my violence is gone
Nothing is wrong, I just slip away and I am gone
Nothing is wrong, she turns me on
I jus slip away and I am gone
Beetlebum
Because you’re young
She’s a gun
Now what you’ve done
Beetlebum
She’ll suck your thumb
She’ll make you come
Coz, she’s your gun
Now what you’ve done
Beetlebum

And when she lets me slip away
She turns me on all my violence is gone
Nothing is wrong, I just slip away and I am gone
Nothing is wrong, she turns me on
I jus slip away and I am gone

He’s on, he’s on, he’s on it

Muse - Invincible

Uno de mis videos y canciones favoritas de Muse

 

Follow through
Make your dreams come true
Don’t give up the fight
You will be alright
Cause there’s no one like you in the universe

Don’t be afraid
What your mind consumes
You should make a stand
Stand up for what you believe
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we’re invincible

During the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please
Lets use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we’re invincible

Do it on your own
It makes no difference to me
What you leave behind
What you choose to be
And whatever they say
Your souls unbreakable

During the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please
Lets use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we’re invincible

Together we’re invincible

During the struggle
They will pull us down
Please, please
Lets use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we’re invincible

Together we’re invincible

Weezer - Island in the sun

la canción más linda del mundo (la primera en mi lista): demasiado pegajosa y el video más tierno…

y la otra versión:

 

Hip hip
Hip hip
Hip hip
Hip hip

When you’re on a holiday
You can’t find the words to say
All the things that come to you
And I wanna feel it too

On an island in the sun
We’ll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can’t control my brain

Hip hip
Hip hip

When you’re on a golden sea
You don’t need no memory
Just a place to call your own
As we drift into the zone

On an island in the sun
We’ll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can’t control my brain

We’ll run away together
We’ll spend some time forever
We’ll never feel bad anymore

Hip hip
Hip hip
Hip hip

On an island in the sun
We’ll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can’t control my brain

We’ll run away together
We’ll spend some time forever
We’ll never feel bad anymore

Hip hip

We’ll never feel bad anymore
No no
We’ll never feel bad anymore
No no
No no
No no
