Backstreet Boys "The Call"


Backstreet é a maior Boy Band de todos os tempos e uma das maiores bandas também. Depois de mais de 10 anos de estrada, muitas idas e vindas, eles continuam na ativa dessa vez com o CD Unbreakable.

Mas não iremos colocar uma música do último CD. Mas sim do Black&Blue de 2000. The Call tem pra mim o melhor clip produzido pela banda, e a música mais divertida. Que mesmo que odeie uma boy band acaba saindo cantando ela.

Letra:

(Phone Rings) (Phone Pick-up)
Girl's Voice: Hello
Guy's Voice:Hi, it's me. What's up baby?
I'm sorry, listen, I'm gonna be late tonight so
don't stay up and wait for me, ok?
Girl's Voice: Where are you?
Guy's Voice: Say that again.
Girl's Voice: Hello?
Guy's Voice: You know, you're dropping out, my battery must be low.
Listen, if you can hear me, we're going to this
place nearby alright, gotta go!"
(Phone Hang-up)

Let me tell you the story about the call that changed my destiny
Me and my boys went out just to end up in misery
Was about to go home when there she was standing in front of me
I said hi. I got a little place nearby, wanna go?
I should've said no, someone's waiting for me
But I called my girl up and said...

CHORUS

Listen baby I'm sorry
Just wanna tell you don't worry
I will be late, don't stay up and wait for me
I Say again, you're dropping out, my battery is low
Just so you know, we're going to a place nearby
Gotta go!

Now two years gone, nothing's been won
I can't take it back, what's done is done
One of her friends found out that she wasn't my only one
And it eats me from inside that she's not by my side
Just because I made that call and lied.

CHORUS - repeat

Let me tell you the story ‘bout the call that changed my destiny
Me and my boys went out just to end up in misery
Was about to go home when there she was standing in front of me
I said hi, I got a little place nearby, gotta go.............................

CHORUS - repeat

Letra:

I haven't slept at all in days
It's been so long since we have talked
And I have been here many times
I just don't know what i'm doing wrong

Chorus:
What can I do to make you love me
What can I do to make you care
What can I say to make you feel this
What can I do to get you there

There's only so much I can take
And i just got to let it go
And who knows I might feel better
If I don't try and I don't hope

(Chorus)

No more waiting, no more aching,
No more fighting, no more trying...

Maybe there's nothing more to say
And in a funny way I'm calm
Because the power is not mine
I'm just gonna let it fly

(chorus)

Love me...

Geri Halliwell "It's Raining Men"


Bônus:

O super Single gravado pelas Weather Girls, ganha uma nova roupagem nas vozes da ex Spice Girl, Geri Halliwell.

Comparando as duas versões, a versão da década de 80 feita pelas Weathers, é infinitamente melhor.

Mas está música faz parte do filme o Diário de Bridget Jones.

O próximo post será como os outros.

Letra:

Humidity's rising, Barometer's getting low
According to all sources, the street's the place to go
Cause tonight for the first time
Just about half-past ten
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men.

It's Raining Men! aleluia!
It's Raining Men! Amen!
It's Raining Men! aleluia!
It's Raining Men! Amen!

Humidity's rising, Barometer's getting low
According to all sources, the street's the place to go
Cause tonight for the first time
Just about half-past ten
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men.

It's Raining Men! aleluia!
It's Raining Men! Amen
I'm gonna go out, I'm gonna let myself get,
Absolutely soaking wet!
It's Raining Men! aleluia!
It's Raining Men! Every Specimen!
Tall, blonde, dark and lean
Rough and tough and strong and mean

God bless Mother Nature, she's a single woman too
She took on the heaven's and she did what she had to do
She taught every angel to rearrange the sky
So that each and every woman could find her perfect guy

It's Raining Men!

I ...feel...stormy...weather...moving....in
About to begin
feel...the...thunder...don't...you...loose...your...head.
Rip off the roof and stay in bed!

It's Raining Men! aleluia!
It's Raining Men! Amen!
It's Raining Men! aleluia!
It's Raining Men! Amen!

It's Raining Men! aleluia!
It's Raining Men! Amen!
It's Raining Men! aleluia!
It's Raining Men! Amen!

It's Raining Men, It's Raining Men,
It's Raining Men, it's Raining Men,
It's Raining Men, It's Raining Men,
It's Raining Men, It's Raining Men

Muse "Time Is Running Out"


Muse é uma banda britânica que lançou seu primeiro álbum em 1999. E que logo no começo foi comparada ao Radiohead, fato que os integrantes da banda já fizeram questão de descartar dizendo que tiveram influências de outras bandas e não do Radio.

Time Is Running Out é do álbum Absolution, que foi o álbum número 1 no Reino Unido.

Essa música além de ter uma qualidade indiscutível consegue fazer com seu estado mental se altere e você tenha momentos intensos de êxtase. Alias muitas músicas deles fazem isso.

O clipe dela também é algo para ser aplaudido de pé durante cinco minutos.

Letra:

I think I'm drowning
Asphyxiated
I wanna break this spell
That you've created

You're something beautiful
A contradiction
I wanna play the game
I want the friction

You will be
The death of me
Yeah, You will be
The death of me


Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

Our time is running out
And our time is running out
You can't push it underground
We can't stop it screaming out

I wanted freedom,
Bound and restricted
I tried to give you up
But I'm addicted

Now that u know I'm trapped
Sense of elation
You'll never dream of breaking this fixation
You will squeeze the life out of me

Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

Our time is running out
And our time is running out
You can't push it underground
We can't stop it screaming out

How did it come to this
Ooooh yayayayayaya
Ooooh yayayayayaya
Ooooh yayayaya oooohh

You will suck the life out of me

Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

Our time is running out
And our time is running out
You can't push it underground
We can't stop it screaming out



How did it come to this
Ooooh yayayayayaya
Ooooh yayayayayaya
Ooooh yayayaya oooohh

Annie Lennox "Into The West"


Annie Lennox começou sua carreira música com Dave Stewart. E até hoje faz apresentações com ele. Mas Annie também fez sua carreira solo principalmente com músicas eruditas.

Into The West pode ser descrita facilmente: ela é a música do Senhor dos Anéis, ou seja é impossível que você não tenha escutado ela ainda mesmo não sabendo o nome dela, ou de quem canta.

E para quem já conhecia a música é impossível não se fazer uma associação imediata com o filme e lembrar de algumas cenas dele enquanto a escuta.

E vale lembrar que essa música ganhou o Oscar de melhor canção quando SDA- O Retorno do Rei ganhou quase todos os Oscar's possíveis.

Letra:

Lay down
your sweet and weary head
Night is falling,
you have come to journey's end.
Sleep now,
and dream of the ones who came before.
They are calling
from across the distant shore.

Why do weep?
What are these tears upon your face?
Soon you will see
all of your fears will pass away,
safe in my arms
you're only sleeping.

What can you see
on the horizon?
Why do the white gulls call?
Across the sea
a pale moon rises --
The ships have come to carry you home.

Dawn will turn
to silver glass
A light on the water
All souls pass.

Hope fades
into the world of night
through shadows falling
out of memory and time.
Don't say,
"We have come now to the end."
White shores are calling
you and I will meet again.

And you'll be here in my arms
Just sleeping.

What can you see
on the horizon?
Why do the white gulls call?
Across the sea
a pale moon rises --
The ships have come to carry you home.

And all will turn
to silver glass
A light on the water
Grey ships pass
Into the west

My Chemical Romance "Ghost Of You"


MCR é uma banda norte americana formada em 2001. Já lançaram 3 CDS obtendo sucesso realmente com o segundo e principalmente o terceiro CD (The Black Parade)

Mas eu escolhi dessa vez uma música do segundo cd (Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge), Ghost Of You. Não tanto pela qualidade da música, pois todas as músicas deles tem um nível de qualidade e sonoridade muito parecidos.

A escolha dessa música se deu ao fato desse ser um clipe extremamente perfeito e condizente com a própria música.

Letra:

I never said I'd lie and wait forever
If I died, we'd be together now
I can't always just forget her
But she could try

At the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are never coming home
Never coming home
Could I, should I
And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever, ever, ever

Get the feeling that you're never
All alone and I remember now
At the top of my lungs, in my arms she dies
She dies

At the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are never coming home
Never coming home
Could I, should I
And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me
Never coming home
Never coming home
Could I, should I
And all the wounds that are ever gonna scar me
For all the ghosts that are never gonna catch me

If I fall
If I fall (down)

At the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are never coming home
Never coming home
Never coming home
Never coming home

And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me
Never coming home
Never coming home
Could I, should I
And all the wounds that are ever gonna scar me
For all the ghosts that are never gonna
