LYRICS

I walked all morning to lift my heart
cause the world keeps dancing with the paper man
I love you never talk in dreams
I always hear your happiness is real
oh make some big jumps, big jumps you afraid to break some bones
come on make some big jumps, big jumps life is your saulte
you hold your head up, your head up high like you think I do

sometimes I feel so confused
I'm under the illusion that i have to choose
I love you always know the way
the way back home always is the same
oh make some big jumps, big jumps you afraid to break some bones
come on make some big jumps, big jumps life is your saulte
you hold your head up, your head up high like you think i do

tick tock, this clockwork will stop
you're the key for winding up my heart
brick, brack if you don't wind me up
this guy will lie upon me lke a passed out drunk
without you i will never rise again, without you i will never rise..

hey there, sunshine in my heart
I know life is long but it goes so fast
I love you never feeling old
you never bought the rubbish that they sold

oh make some big jumps, big jumps you afraid to break some bones
come on make some big jumps, big jumps life is your saulte
you hold your head up, your head up high like you think I do

oh do some big jumps, big jumps you afraid to break some bones
come on make some big jumps, big jumps life is your saulte
you hold your head up, your head up high like you think I do

ALISON MOYET: SHOULD I FEEL THAT IT'S OVER.

 
I think we've all survived the eighties remember ALISON MOYET for her role in the duo Yazoo and subsequent solo career. In 2002, She reappeared with a little masterpiece called "Hometime, " an album that confirm to Moyet as one of the great voices of British pop. We have chosen SHOULD I FEEL THAT IT'S OVER one of the most beautiful songs of the album. Hope you like it.




LYRICS

Could you wake me up when it's over
Well maybe I'll sit this out, I think I know the score
You read to me before
Why wrap it up so precisely
I know what you're bringing me, I keep them on the side
With gone and nevermore

Should I feel that it's over, all over
And are you here when I hold you, I wonder

You wanted days to remember
September without the fall, a house without a wall
A given in surprise
I never match you for missing
And you call this kissing , I feel closer to the sky
You never ask me why

Should I feel that it's over, all over
(Dry your eyes, outside vermillion skies eases the lies
Loose the ties that keep you under)
And are you here when I hold you, I wonder
(And I realise, when the sun is in your eyes it's no wonder)

JÓNSI: BOY LILIKOI.


I always thought that Sigur Ros are pedantic and pretentious. But "GO" (2010) the solo album debut of JONSI, singing in English and not in this language invented that insults our intelligence, has great moments like this BOY LILIKOI. Hope you like it.




LYRICS

I want to be a lilikoi boy lilikoi
You grind your claws, you howl growl
Unafraid of all colour
You run, you're free, you climb and dress trees
You reignite
You growl, you howl, you show your teeth
You bite, it's alright

Say no more, use your eyes
The world goes and flutters by
Use your eyes, you'll know you are
Use your eyes, the world goes and flutters by
Use your eyes, you'll know you are

Why me, my boy, you burn so bright
Do you illuminate?
One day you're out, you give up the fight
You slow down heart-rate

We all grow old, use your life
The world goes and flutters by
Use your life, you'll know you are
Use your life, the world goes and flutters by
Use your life, you'll know you are

Electricity wires are down
Rainbow colours fade into brown
I dreamt you were smiling, shifting for good
Courageous boy, now you are gone
And run past the years, no place to go
Your spirit is grand, so life goes on
You are

I want to be a lilikoi-boy ooooh
You grind your claws, you howl, you growl
Unafraid of all colour 

Electricity wires are down
Rainbow colours fade into brown
I dreamt you were smiling, shifting for good
Courageous boy, now you are gone
You run past the years, no place to go
Your spirit is grand, so life goes on
You are ..
You are ..

SHELBY LYNNE: ALIBI.


SHELBY LYNNE is probably the best American songwriter of her generation. Album after album always surprises us with genuine gems. Today we chose ALIBI from her eleventh and final album "Tears, Lies and Alibis" (2010). A beautiful slow song in which Shelby Lynne gets once again make it easy The difficult. Hope you like it.





LYRICS

I know that look in your eyes
I've seen it before
Think I'd be used of it now
But I beg for more
I know you've been staying out late
I hear you when you come in
I pretend to be sleeping
So we don't have to act like friends


My nights are not the only lonely time
Mornings trashed me and the birds
I cry and look out the window
And I just can't wait to hear your alibi

I know I don't know what
But I bet she looks good
She probably has a fancy job
And works in the office like you
I'm sure she doesn't have the time to think about

Who you're married to
Poor girl sure it's hard enough
To concentrate on you


All starch white shirt perfectly clear house
You never noticed it anyhow
But she gets through draggin you by
Looking for shoulders save way to cry
But I'm over here baby
Look in my
cause this is the last time
I listen to your
Alibi

VETUSTA MORLA: COPENHAGE.


VETUSTA MORLA is a Spanish indie band that surprised all and sundry with their debut album "Otro día en el Mundo" (2008). This album was described by critics as "The best debut album of a group in the history of Spanish rock". We chose COPENHAGUE a beautiful love song very subtle. Hope you like it.



LYRICS

El corria nunca le enseñaron a andar se fue,
tras luces palidas
Ella huia de espejismos y horas de mar
Aeropouertos unos vienen otros
se van igual que Alicias en ciudad
El valor para marcharse el miedo a llegar

Llueve en el canal la corriente
enseña el camino hacia el mar
Todos duermen ya
Dejarse llevar suena demasiado bien
Jugar al azar
Nunca saber donde puedes terminar o empezar

Un instante mientaras los turistas se van
Un tren de madrugada consiguio
trazar la frontera entre siempre o jamas

Llueve en el canal la corriente
enseña el camino hacia el mar
Todos duermen ya
Dejarse llevar suena demasido bien
Jugar al azar
Nunca saber donde puedes terminar o empezar
o empezar

Ella duerme tras el vendabal
se quito la ropa sueña con despertar
en otro tiempo y en otra ciudad
Dejarse llevar
Suena demasiado bien
Jugar al azar nunca saber
donde puedes terminar o empezar
terminar o empezar
terminar o empezar

DAVID GRAY: SAIL AWAY.


"White Ladder" (1998) is the album of my life and DAVID GRAY one of my favorites singer-songwriters. I think I was taking too long to include a song from this great album in this blog. I would include all songs of the album, because it is a master piece. But today I would like remember SAIL AWAY because is simply wonderful. Hope you like



Now a Live Version:



LYRICS

Sail away with me honey
I put my heart in your hands
Sail away with me honey now, now, now
Sail away with me
What will be will be
I wanna hold you now

Crazy skies all wild above me now
Winter howling at my face
And everything I held so dear
Disappeared without a trace
Oh all the times I've tasted love
Never knew quite what I had
Little Darling if you hear me now
Never needed you so bad
Spinning round inside my head

Sail away with me honey
I put my heart in your hands
Sail away with me honey now, now, now
Sail away with me
What will be will be
I wanna hold you now

I've been talking drunken gibberish
Falling in and out of bars
Trying to get some explanation here
For the way some people are
How did it ever come so far

Sail away with me honey
I put my heart in your hands
Sail away with me honey now, now, now
Sail away with me
What will be will be
I wanna hold you now
Sail away with me honey
I put my heart in your hands
Sail away with me honey now, now, now
Sail away with me
What will be will be
I wanna hold you now

[Repeat chorus]

LAURA VEIRS: GALAXIES.


One of my favorite albums of recent history of music is "Year of Meteors" (2005) by LAURA VEIRS. One of the songs more complacent to the public who can not appreciate her art is GALAXIES. I think it's a song That you might like to everybody. Although the universe of this singer-songwriter is far more complex. Hope you like it.



LYRICS

When you sing, when you sing
The stars fill up my eyes
Galaxies pour down my cheeks
Galaxies…they flood the street
Galaxies

When we dance, when we dance
Eels and sea grass float on by
I’m 10,000 leagues beneath the sea
10,000 leagues…beneath the green
10,000 leagues

When we kiss, when we kiss
Bears and boulders vibrate through the air
Gravity is dead you see
No gravity…all I need is beating red
No gravity…
