day seven - a song that reminds me of a certain event

"Vagabond" by Air and Beck

"Golden waves in all directions, I could lose my soul right here
Colour lights on the runway makes a stranger feel unchained

I'm running after time & I miss the sunshine
Summer days will come, happiness will be mine
I'm lost in my words, I don't know where I'm going
I do the best I can not to worry about things

I feel loose, I feel haggard, don't know what I'm looking for
Something true, something lovely that will make me feel alive

I'm running after time and i miss the sunshine
Summer days will come, happiness will be mine
I'm lost in my words, I don't know where I'm going
I do the best i can not to worry about things

Like a vagabond in the distance looking for a song to sing
A song that will last all night and for the rest of our lives
I'm lost in my words, I don't know where I'm going
I do the best i can not to worry about things

I'm running after time and I miss the sunshine
Summer days will come, happiness will be mine
I'm lost in my words,I don't know where I'm going
I do the best i can not to worry about things

I'm running after time and i miss the sunshine
Summer days will come, happiness will be mine."

day five - a song that reminds me of someone

"Say Yes" by Elliott Smith


Acho que a letra diz o que é preciso...

"I'm in love with the world through the eyes of a girl
Who's still around the morning after
We broke up a month ago, and I grew up - but didn't know
I'd be around the morning after

It's always been wait and see
A happy day and then you pay
and feel like shit the morning after
But now I feel changed around and instead of falling down
I'm standing up the morning after
Situations get fucked up and turned around sooner or later
I could be another fool or an exception to the rule
You tell me the morning after

Crooked spin can't come to rest
I damaged bad at best
She'll decide what she wants
I'll probably be the last to know
No-one says until it shows and you see how it is
They want you or they don't
Say yes

I'm in love with the world through the eyes of a girl
Who's still around the morning after"

day three - a song that makes me happy

"Forever and Ever Amen" by The Drums

Acho que não é pela música em si, nem mesmo pela letra, é mais pelo que ela me faz lembrar.

"We, we are in love
and we forever
We not gonna stop
We'll be forever

And all the stars in the sky
And all the flowers in the fields
And all the flower in the earth
Could never take you from my heart

And it's forever, baby it's forever
And it's forever, baby it's forever
And let me run till the end of time
Until our hearts are aligned into the sky
Run till the end of time
Until our hearts are aligned into the sky

We, we are the ones
When we're together
We, we are the young
We live forever
The Drums yrics-celebrities.anekatips.com

And all the stars in the sky
And all the flowers in the fields
And all the flowers in the earth
Could never take you from my heart

And it's forever, baby it's forever
And it's forever, baby it's forever
And let me run till the end of time
Until our hearts are aligned into the sky
Run till the end of time
Until our hearts are aligned into the sky

Forever ... and ever (repeat)

And it's forever, baby it's forever
And it's forever, baby it's forever
And let anekatips me run till the end of time
Until our hearts are aligned in the sky
Run till the end of time
Until our hearts are aligned in the sky"

day two - my least favorite song

"Human" by The Killers

Não há palavras que descrevam o quanto esta música me irrita. Não é que seja horrível, mas foi uma desilusão para mim (tal como todos o álbum) e talvez por isso o sentimento de "recusa" seja maior do que o normal.

#2 - poemas na minha vida

É a letra de uma música do Gil Scott-Heron, mas não deixa de ser um poema...


I'll Take Care of You

"I know you've been hurt by someone else
I can tell by the way you carry yourself
But if you let me, here's what I'll do
I'll take care of you

I've loved and I've lost the same as you
So you see I know just what you've been through
And if you let me, here's what I'll do 
I'll take care of you

You won't ever have to worry
You won't ever have to cry
For I'll be there beside you
To dry your weeping eyes

So darling tell me that you'll be true
There's no doubt in my mind, no, what I want to do
And just as sure as one and one is two
I know I'll take care of you

I'll take care of you
I'll take care of you
I'll take care of you"

by Gil Scott-Heron

day one - my favourite song

"Since I've Been Loving You" by Led Zeppelin

Porque é que eu adoro esta música? Primeiro que tudo são os Led Zeppelin, que são a minha banda favorita. Depois a música consegue fazer-me sentir um bocadinho de tudo, se bem que na maioria é tristeza. O solo de guitarra no meio da música é dos melhores que o Jimmy Page alguma vez fez. E os "combates" entre a voz do Robert Plant, cheia de amargura, e a guitarra do J.P., são perfeitos.

Aqui fica a letra...


"Working from seven to eleven every night,
It really makes life a drag, I don't think that's right.
I've really, really been the best of fools, I did what I could.
'Cause I love you, baby, How I love you, darling, How I love you, baby,
How I love you, girl, little girl.
But baby, Since I've Been Loving You. I'm about to lose my worried mind, oh, yeah.

Everybody trying to tell me that you didn't mean me no good.
I've been trying, Lord, let me tell you, Let me tell you I really did the best I could.
I've been working from seven to eleven every night, I said It kinda makes my life a drag.
Lord, that ain't right...
Since I've Been Loving You, I'm about to lose my worried mind.

Said I've been crying, my tears they fell like rain,
Don't you hear, Don't you hear them falling,
Don't you hear, Don't you hear them falling.

Do you remember mama, when I knocked upon your door?
I said you had the nerve to tell me you didn't want me no more, yeah
I open my front door, hear my back door slam,
You must have one of them new fangled back door man.

I've been working from seven, seven, seven, to eleven every night, It kinda makes my life a drag...
Baby, Since I've Been Loving You, I'm about to lose, I'm about lose to my worried mind."

#1 - séries na minha vida

Californication | 2ª Temporada | 8º Episódio

Hank a narrar a carta que escreveu para a Karen, depois de saber que a engravidou e terem decidido que não iam ter aquele bebé e portanto não se podiam voltar a ver: 



"Dear Karen,

If you're reading this it means I actually worked out the courage to mail. So, good for me. You don't know me very well, but if you get me started I have a tendency to go on and on about how hard the writing is for me. This?! This is the hardest thing I ever had to write. There's no easy way to say this so I'll just say it, I met someone. It was an accident, I wasn't looking for it, it wasn't on the make, it was a perfect storm. She said one thing, I said another, next thing I knew, I wanted to spend the rest of my life in the middle of that conversation. Now there's this feeling in my gut she might be the one. She's completely nuts in a way that makes me smile, highly neurotic with a great deal of maintenance required, she is you, Karen. That is the good news. The bad is that i don't know how to be with you right now, and it scares the sheet out of me, because if I'm not with you right now, i get this feeling that we'll get lost out there. It is a big bad world, full of twisted turns, and people have a way of blinking and missing the moment, the moment that could have change everything. I don't know what is going on with us, and I can't tell you why you should waste a leap of fate in a guy like me, but damn you smell good, like home, and you make excellent coffee, that gotta count for something, right? Call me.

Unfaithfully yours,
Hank Moody"
