CHARLOTTE MARTIN: VOLCANO.


CHARLOTTE MARTIN is one of my favourite singers-songwriters. But her music belongs to my privacy because she is practically unknow in my country. She reminds me to another greatest singers like Tori Amos or Kate Bush. But if we go deeper in her discography, we find compositions that clearly mark the difference with Them. I chose VOLCANO the first single of her new 2011 album "Dancing on Needles". Hope you like.



Now, in a Live Performance.



LYRICS

Covered in another layer, where'd you go?*
Tasting like another flavor I don't know
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on out of there
Into the bright, mathematical I'll call it a dare

There is not another way out of this mess
There is nothing left inside to repress
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on back to me
Into the arms, into the arms you're supposed to be

I'm running out of angles
Left here just to dangle
Over your volcano

Give me something broken that I can fix
Show me something hard to see that I'll miss
Sarcasm never got me far, so what anyway
An autopilot shopping cart, I'll take anything you give me

I'm running out of angles
Left here just to dangle
Over your volcano
I know there is so much better
Better than this weather
Over your volcano

Who said this was logical - probably me
Thought I was methodical with my gripped gloves
I can't look down, I can't stare directly in your eyes
All of this heat has got to mean that I'm closer, baby

I'm running out of angles
Left here just to dangle
Over your volcano
I know there is so much better
Better than this weather
Over your volcano
Volcano
Volcano
Volcano

AMY WINEHOUSE: BACK TO BLACK.


Much has been written about her. She has been judged without asking: "Why?". Now is the time to listen to her in silence.



Rest in peace.


LYRICS

He left no time to regret
Kept his dick wet
With his same old safe bet
Me and my head high
And my tears dry
Get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew
So far removed from all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track
My odds are stacked
I'll go back to black

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to.....

I go back to us

I love you much
It's not enough
You love blow and I love puff
And life is like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside

We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to

Black, black, black, black, black, black, black,
I go back to
I go back to

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to black

THE MAGIC NUMBERS: TAKE A CHANCE


THE MAGIC NUMBERS is one of the most interesting British bands. They had a very promising debut album that transcended the indie scene to the radio stations and Music TV. Today we chose TAKE A CHANCE from their second album "Those the brokes" (2006) a fun song that highlights the vocal harmonies of the two girls. Hope you like



LYRICS

Whatch-you gonna do when it all breaks down?
Take another heart through this lonely town?
Whatch-you gonna do when she turns around,
And says "I never even thought that you'd be messin' 'round."
But then you dance dance dance with the woman who lets you,
How's it going to feel, until I catch you,
What you gonna do when she turns around,
And says "You broke another heart that was broken down."

It's a crying shame,
That the love you've made,
Is a cross, that you bear,
When it's cooooooold,
Why don't you leave me alone?

Take a chance, with a woman who lets you,
Take a chance, with a woman who lets you,

How'd you gonna feel when it's all found out,
Chasing the heart that was up and down?
Whatch-you gonna do when they turn around,
And say "They never ever thought that you'd be messin' 'round."
And then you dance dance dance with the woman who lets you,
How's it going to feel, until I catch you,
How d'ya gonna find what she had in mind?
If you keep tearing out the pages of an alibi.

It's a crying shame,
That the love you've made,
Is a cross, that you bear,

It's a crying shame,
That the love you've made,
Is a cross, that you bear,
When it's cold,
Why don't you leave me alone?

Take a chance, with a woman who lets you,
Take a chance, with the woman who lets you,
Take a chance..
Take a chance..

Ohhhhhhh
Whatch-you gonna do when it all breaks down?
Chase another heart that's been run around?
How d'ya gonna feel when it settles down?
You said "I never ever thought that I'd be messin' 'round."
But then you dance dance dance with the woman who lets you,
Whatch-you gonna do until I catch you?
How'd you gonna feel when she turns around,
And says "You broke another heart that was broken down."

It's a crying shame,
That the love you've made,
It's a crying shame,
That the love you've made,
It's a crying shame,
That the love, won't leave you alone.

CHRISTINA PERRI: JAR OF HEARTS.


One of the great surprises from last year was JAR OF HEARTS the song that discovered us CHRISTINA PERRI, included in her debut album "Lovestrong". Perri has seen all her dreams came true after this succesful hit. We think it is one of the best heartbreaking song of the year and believe she will have a bright future in music. Hope you like.



LYRICS

I know I can't take one more step towards you
Cause all that's waiting is regret
And don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most

I learned to live, half alive
And now you want me one more time

Who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
you're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?

I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms

I've learned to live, half alive
And now you want me one more time

Who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
you're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?

It took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back

Who do you think you are?
Running around leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
you're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
don't come back at all
[x2]

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?

JENNY LEWIS: ACID TONGUE.


JENNY LEWIS is one of the most  ubiquitous american singer-songwriters. Whether alone, with her band Rilo Kiley or with her boyfriend in the new formation Jenny & Johnny. In addition to his collaborations with The Postal Service. Today I would like to remind one of his most beautiful songs: ACID TONGUE (2008) belonging to her second solo album of the same title. Hope you like it.




Album Version


LYRICS

I went to a cobbler
To fix a hole in my shoe
He took one look at my face
And said, "I can fix that hole in you"

I beg your pardon
I'm not looking for a cure
Seen enough of my friends
In the depths of the godsick blues

You know I am a liar
You know I am a liar
Nobody helps a liar

Because I've been down to Dixie
And dropped acid on my tongue
Tripped upon the land
Until enough was enough

I was a little bit lighter
And adventure on my sleeve
I was a little drunk
And looking for company

So I found myself a sweetheart
With the softest of hands
We were unlucky in love
But I'd do it all again

We build ourselves a fire
We build ourselves a fire
But you know I am a liar
You know I am a liar

And you don't know what I've done

By the rolling river is
Exactly where I was
There was no simple cure
For unlucky in love

To be lonely is a habit
Like smoking or taking drugs
And I've quit them both
But man, was it rough

Now I am tired
It just made me tired
Let's build ourselves a fire
Let's build ourselves a fire

NERINA PALLOT: PUT YOUR HANDS UP.


We talked about NERINA PALLOT before. But this is the moment to introduce my favourite song of Summer 2011: PUT YOUR HANDS UP that is included in her new amazing album "Year of The Wolf" with the colaboration of Bernard Butler as a producer. I always will recommend Nerina, She is great. Hope you Like.


And This is an Acoustic Version:



LYRICS

Oh it’s the strangest thing,
I wasn’t looking out for anything.
My boat had just set sail,
I was flying as the wind prevailed.

What did you think you were doing, doing?
I couldn’t shake loose, not from you, not from you.
I couldn’t shake loose, now I don’t mind.

Put your hands up,
Say you won’t stop
Giving me love,
Cos I need you to feel me, feel me.
Put your hands up,
Say you won’t stop
Giving me love
I don’t care if it’s greedy, greedy.

Whatever you want, you’ve got it.
Whatever you do I’m on it.
Whatever you want, you’ve got it,
Just put your hands up.

I was a lonely girl,
Swimming lost in the widest sea.
But the truth of it,
There ain’t no man could ever get to me.

Now I just see stars when I’m with you.
This is my heart that I give you.
What did you do with your voodoo, voodoo child?
What did you do to me?

Put your hands up,
Say you won’t stop
Giving me love,
Cos I need you to feel me, feel me.
Put your hands up,
Say you won’t stop
Giving me love
I don’t care if it’s greedy, greedy.

Whatever you want, you’ve got it.
Whatever you do I’m on it.
Whatever you want, you’ve got it,
Just put your hands up.

Put your hands up.
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Put your hands up.
(Oooooooh)

Put your hands up,
Say you won’t stop
Giving me love,
Cos I need you to feel me, feel me.
Put your hands up,
Say you won’t stop
Giving me love
I don’t care if it’s greedy, greedy.

Whatever you want, you’ve got it.
Whatever you do I’m on it.
Whatever you want, you’ve got it,
Just put your hands up

Put your hands up now,
Come on and put your hands up now.
Whatever you want you’ve got it,
Just put your hands up
