Franz Ferdinand - This Fire

Grande som, on fire.

Eyes, boring a way through me
Paralyse, controlling completely
Now there is a fire in me
A fire that burns

This fire is out of control
I'm going to burn this city
Burn this city
This fire is out of control
I'm going to burn this city
Burn this city
This fire is out of control
I'm going to burn this city
Burn this city
This fire is out of control
I'm going to burn it, I'll burn it
I, I, I'll burn it down

Eyes, burning a way through me
Overwhelm, destroying so sweetly
Now, there is a fire within me
A fire that burns

This fire is out of control
I'm going to burn this city
Burn this city
This fire is out of control
I'm going to burn this city
Burn this city
This fire is out of control
Then I, I'm out of control
And I burn,

Oh, how I burn for you
Burn, oh how I burn for you
Burn, how I
Burn, how I
Burn, oh how I...

This fire is out of control,
I'm gonna burn this city,
Burn this city...

José Afonso - Grândola vila morena

No dia 29 de Março de 1974, Grândola, Vila Morena foi cantada no encerramento de um espectáculo no Coliseu de Lisboa. Na assistência estavam militares do MFA, que viriam a escolher a canção como uma das senhas para o arranque da Revolução dos Cravos. Curiosamente, para esse espectáculo a censura do regime fascista havia proibido a interpretação de várias canções de Zeca, entre as quais "Venham Mais Cinco", "Menina dos Olhos Tristes", "A Morte Saiu à Rua" e "Gastão Era Perfeito".

À meia-noite e vinte minutos da madrugada do dia 25 de Abril de 1974, a "Grândola, Vila Morena" foi tocada no programa Limite da Rádio Renascença. Era a segunda senha que confirmava o bom andamento das operações e despoletava o avanço das forças organizadas pelo MFA. A primeira senha, tocada cerca de hora e meia antes, às 22 horas e 55 minutos do dia 24 de Abril, foi a música "E depois do adeus", cantada por Paulo de Carvalho.

Grândola, vila morena
Terra da fraternidade
O povo é quem mais ordena
Dentro de ti, ó cidade

Dentro de ti, ó cidade
O povo é quem mais ordena
Terra da fraternidade
Grândola, vila morena

Em cada esquina um amigo
Em cada rosto igualdade
Grândola, vila morena
Terra da fraternidade

Terra da fraternidade
Grândola, vila morena
Em cada rosto igualdade
O povo é quem mais ordena

À sombra duma azinheira
Que já não sabia a idade
Jurei ter por companheira
Grândola a tua vontade

Moloko - The Time is Now

Bela descrição da ansiedade temporal, vivida pelos apaixonados. Uma grande música dos Moloko e uma bela actuação da Roisin Murphy.

You're my last breath
You're a breath of fresh air to me
Hi, I'm empty
So tell me you care for me

You're the first thing
And the last thing on my mind
In your arms I feel
Sunshine

On a promise
A day dream yet to come
Time is upon us
Oh but the night is young

Flowers blossom
In the winter time
In your arms I feel
Sunshine

Give up yourself unto the moment
The time is now
Give up yourself unto the moment
Let's make this moment last

You may find yourself
Out on a limb for me
Could you expect it as
A part of your destiny

I give all I have
But it's not enough
And my patience is shot
So I'm calling your bluff

Give up yourself unto the moment
The time is now
Give up yourself unto the moment
Let's make this moment last

Give up yourself unto the moment
The time is now
Give up yourself unto the moment
Let's make this moment ... last

And we gave it time
All eyes are on the clock
But time takes too much time
Please make the waiting stop

And the atmosphere is charged.
In you I trust.
And I feel no fear as I
Do as I must.

Give up yourself unto the moment
The time is now
Give up yourself unto the moment
Let's make this moment last.

Give up yourself unto the moment
The time is now
Give up yourself unto the moment
Let's make this moment last

Tempted by fear
And I won't hesitate
The time is now
And I can't wait

I've been empty too long
The time is now
Took a chance and now it's gone
And the time has come
Let's make this moment last
And the night is young
The time is now.
Let's make this moment last.

Give up yourself unto the moment
The time is now
Give up yourself unto the moment

Irmãos Catita - Putas em Portugal e No Mundo

Grandes rimas e está tudo dito.

As da patagónia
Fazem cerimónia,
Mas as do perú
Gostam de levar no cú,
A puta da rua
Fode toda nua,
A puta armã
Nunca tirra o soutien,
As de leningrado
Fodem com agrado,
Mas as de moscovo
Pertencem ao povo...

Pu putas de todas as terras e lugares
Pu putas às centenas e aos milhares...!

Diana Krall - Temptation

Tentação são as belas músicas da Diana Krall. Sublime na voz e no piano.

Rusted brandy in a diamond glass
Everything is made from dreams
Time is made from honey slow and sweet
Only the fools know what it means
Temptation, temptation, temptation
I can't resist

Well I know that she is made of smoke
But I've lost my way
He knows that I am broke
But I must play
Temptation, oh temptation, temptation, I can't resist
Dutch pink and Italian blue
He is there waiting for you
My will has disappeared
Now confusion is so clear
Temptation, temptation, temptation
I can't resist
...
Temptation, temptation, temptation
I can't resist

U2 - Pride (In the name of love)

Porque hoje se celebra a morte Alguém por Amor a todos nós.

One man come in the name of love
One man come and go.
One man come here to justify
One man to overthrow.

In the name of love
What more in the name of love.
In the name of love
What more in the name of love.

One man caught on a barbed wire fence
One man here resist
One man washed up on an empty beach
One man betrayed with a kiss.

In the name of love
What more in the name of love.
In the name of love
What more in the name of love.

Early morning, April four
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky.
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride.

In the name of love
What more in the name of love.
In the name of love
What more in the name of love.

In the name of love
What more in the name of love.
In the name of love
What more in the name of love.

The Verve - Lucky Man

Continuando com o tema "lucky". Esta é das minhas favoritas dos The Verve. Será que a Sorte e o Amor relacionam-se?!?

Happiness
More or less
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh my, my
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know just where I am

But how many corners do I have to turn?
How many times do I have to learn?
All the love I have is in my mind?

Well, I'm a lucky man
With fire in my hands

Happiness
Something in my own place
I'm standing naked
Smiling, I feel no disgrace
With who I am
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know just where I am

But how many corners do I have to turn?
How many times do I have to learn?
All the love I have is in my mind?

I hope you understand
I hope you understand

Gotta love that'll never die

Happiness
More or less
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know
Oh my, my
Oh my, my
Oh my, my
Oh my, my

Gotta love that'll never die
Gotta love that'll never die
No, no
I'm a lucky man

It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh my, my
Oh my, my
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh my, my
Oh my, my

Jason Mraz & Colbie Caillat - Lucky

Sortudo é o Jason Mraz, por ter a bela e formosa Colbie com a sua doce voz, em dueto com ele. Magnifico!

Do you hear me, I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky oh my, baby I'm trying

Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel you whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Oooohhhhoohhhhohhooohhooohhooohoooh

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I wait for you I promise you, I will

Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music, feel the air
I put a flower in your hair

And though the breeze is through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keep spinning round
You hold me right here right now

Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Travis - Sing

A solução para os nossos problemas está em cantar.

Baby, you've been going so crazy
Lately, nothing seems to be going right
Solo, why do you have to get so low
You're so… You've been waiting in the sun too long

(refrão)
But if you sing, sing
sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing

Colder, crying over your shoulder
Hold her, and tell her everythings gonna be fine
Surely, you've been going too early
Hurry, cause no one's gonna be stopped

(refrão)

Baby, there's something going on today
But I say nothing, nothing, nothing,
Nothing, nothing,
Cause no one's gonna be stopped

(refrão)
