No Doubt - Sunday Morning

Desde Anaheim (California) en el año 1986 empezaron a lanzar canciones al mundo los integrantes de la banda No Doubt que comenzaron profundamente influenciados por el ska, y el rock alternativo, y tras varios álbumes y fusiones con grupos de todo tipo (hasta de reggae) evolucionaron hacia el new age.

Os dejo con una canción que me gusta mucho de ellos, llamada Sunday Morning.



Letra:

Sappy pathetic little me
That was the girl I used to be
You had me on my knees

I'd trade you places any day
I'd never thought you could be that way
But you looked like me on Sunday

You came in with the breeze
On Sunday morning
You sure have changed since yesterday
Without any warning
I thought I knew you
I thought I knew you
I thought I knew you well. . . so well

You're trying my shoes on for a change
They look so good but fit so strange
Out of fashion, so I can complain

You came in with the breeze
On Sunday morning
You sure have changed since yesterday
Without any warning
I thought I knew you
I thought I knew you
I thought I knew you well. . . so well

I know who I am, but who are you?
You're not looking like you used to
You're on the other side of the mirror
So nothing's looking quite as clear
Thank you for turning on the lights
Thank you, now you're the parasite
I didn't think you had it in you
And now you're looking like I used to

You came in with the breeze
On Sunday morning
You sure have changed since yesterday
Without any warning
And you want me badly
You cannot have me
I thought I knew you
But I've got a new view
I thought I knew you well . . . oh well

Smashing Pumpkins - Tonight Tonight

Os dejo una canción por aquí de un grupo de rock alternativo de Chicago (Illinois) Smashing Pumpkins (machacando calabazas).

La canción me gustó bastante cuando la conocí, pero en realidad no había visto el vídeo hasta ahora, y me parece que está muy muy currado.

Os dejo con ellos, la letra no la pongo ya que el vídeo está subtitulado en español.

NAiVE - Nie nie bedzie nas

Ayer un gran descubrimiento de Álex con origen en el país del sol naciente... Hoy me acerco un poquitín y me quedo en Rusia, para descubrir a un grupo de punk-rock llamado NAiVE.

A ver qué os parece... la verdad es que suenan bastante bien. Por cierto, tras lo de Krakovia, y descubrir también a estos, igual un día os tengo que recomendar un canal de televisión concreto y a una hora concreta ;)



No... hoy no hay letra!

R. E. M. - Losing my Religion

Una banda de esas eternas... R. E. M. Fundada en 1980, en Georgia (Estados Unidos), se puede decir que es un grupo de rock, o de pop, o de grunge... por ahí se encuentran todo tipo de definiciones.

Lo cierto es que en concreto esta canción me gusta bastante, me da igual el estilo que sea, ponedle vosotros nombre.



Letra:


Life is bigger
It's bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no I've said too much
I set it up

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no I've said too much
I haven't said enough
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

Every whisper
Of every waking hour I'm
Choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt lost and blinded fool
Oh no I've said too much
I set it up

Consider this
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip that brought me
To my knees failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around
Now I've said too much
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream

Placebo - Pure Morning

Buenas a tod@s!

Hoy toca un cambio de estilo. Llevo varias entradas con música blandita y bastante antigua... y como buena persona cambiante vamos a irnos por el Rock Alternativo de Placebo.

Se trata de un grupo londinense fundado en 1994, y esta canción Pure Morning pertenece a su segundo álbum: "Without you I'm Nothing"

Ahí va el vídeo, ya me contaréis (y comentaréis...)



Y la letra!!

A friend in need's a friend indeed,
A friend with weed is better,
A friend with breasts and all the rest,
A friend who's dressed in leather,

A friend in need's a friend indeed,
A friend who'll tease is better ,
Our thoughts compress,
Which makes us blessed,
And makes for stormy weather,

A friend in need's a friend indeed,
My Japanese is better,
And when she's pressed, she will undress,
And then she's boxing clever,

A friend in need's a friend indeed,
A friend who bleeds is better,
My friend confessed she passed the test,
And we will never sever,

Day's dawning, skins crawling [repeat three more times]
Pure morning, [repeat this three more times]

A friend in need's a friend indeed,
A friend who'll tease is better,
Our thoughts compress,
Which makes us blessed,
And makes for stormy weather,

A friend in need's a friend indeed,
A friend who bleeds is better,
My friend confessed she passed the test,
And we will never sever,

Day's dawning, skins crawling [repeat three more times]
Pure morning,[repeat this three more times]

A friend in need's a friend indeed,
My Japanese is better,
And when she's pressed, she will undress,
And then she's boxing clever,

A friend in need's a friend indeed,
A friend with weed is better,
A friend with breasts and all the rest,
A friend who's dressed in leather
