The Phanton of the Opera - Music Of the Night


Tentando surpreender a todos mais uma vez (assim espero), decido postar uma música do incrível musical o Fantasma da Ópera.

Todas as músicas desse musical são divinas, mas essa em questão é especial. Ela tem um algo mais que me agrade de alguma forma inexplicável.

Uma música para ser ouvida atentamente a qualquer hora do dia, seja na rua, no trabalho, na faculdade. Uma música que devemos parar tudo que estávamos fazendo apenas para aprecia-la.

Recomendo ainda que assistam o filme aqueles que ainda não fizeram, pois é um filme lindo, com músicas tão lindas quanto.

Letra:

Night-time sharpens,
heightens each sensation...
Darkness stirs
and wakes imagination
Silently the senses
abandon their defences...
Helpless to resist the notes I write...
For I compose the music of the night...

Slowly, gently
night unfurls its splendour...
Grasp it, sense it -
tremulous and tender...
Turn your face away
from the garish light of day,
turn your thoughts away
from cold, unfeeling light -
and listen to
the music of the night...

Close your eyes
and surrender to your
darkest dreams!
Purge your thoughts
of the life
you knew before!
Close your eyes,
let your spirit
start to soar!
And you'll live
as you've never
lived before...

Softly, deftly,
music shall caress you...
Hear it, feel it,
secretly possess you...
Open up your mind,
let your fantasies unwind,
in this darkness that
you know you cannot fight -
the darkness of
the music of the night

Let your mind
start a journey through a
strange, new world!
Leave all thoughts
of the life
you knew before!
Let your soul
Take you where you
long to be!
Only then
can you belong
to me...

Floating, falling,
sweet intoxication!
Touch me, trust me,
savour each sensation!
Let the dream begin
let your darker side give in
to the power of
the music that I write -
the power of
the music of the night...

PHANTOM
You alone
can make my song take flight -
help me make the music of the night..

The Last Shadow Puppets " The Age Of The Understatement "


Esse era para ser de alguma música eletrônica, mas decidi colocar TLSP por motivos técnicos.

Last Shadow é praticamente uma dupla formada por Alex Turner (Arctic Monkeys) & Miles Kane (The Rascals). As músicas deles tem uma sonoridade muito atrativa que lembra vagamente Arctic, (nunca escutei o The Rascals, prometo que nos próximos dias coloco alguma coisa de ambos, tanto Arctic quanto Rascals).

Essa é uma música que já te prende na introdução, com batidas que lembram marchas de guerra.

Além disso tanto o Alex quanto o Miles conseguem levar a música perfeitamente, oferecendo-nos um som de altíssima qualidade relembrando um pouco Radiohead e Oasis em momento inspirado.

Letra:

Decided to sneak off away
From your stomach and try your pulse
You captured what seemed all unknowing
And candid but they suspected it was false

She's playful, the boring would warn you
Be careful of her brigade
In order to tame this relentless marauder
Move away from the parade
And she was walking on the tables in the glasshouse
And verily bedraggled in the wind
Subtly a method of seduction
Twenty little tragedies begin

And she would throw a feather boa in the road
If she thought that it would set the scene
Unfittingly dipped into your companions
Enlightened them to make you see

And there's affection to rent
The age of the understatement
Before the attraction ferments
Kiss me properly and pull me apart
Affection to rent
The age of the understatement
But before this attraction ferments
Kiss me properly and pull me apart

And my fingers scratch at my hair
Before my mind can get too reckless
The idea of seeing you here
Is enough to make the sweat go cold

Enigma - Gravity Of Love


Escutar enigma é uma experiência única, indescritível que todos os mortais deveriam ter a oportunidade de apreciar.

Mas sabemos contudo que enigma não música para simples mortais, mas apenas para aqueles que sente que aquilo não é apenas uma música como qualquer outra, mas algo muito maior que leva quem escuta a uma transmutação de estado como nenhum outro som consegue fazer.

A escolha dessa música em si foi devido ao fato de eu ter mexido em velhos cds meus e passando para observar cada música presente num determinado CD, me senti totalmente envolvido emocionalmente com essa música.

Letra:

Turn around
And smell what you don't see
Close your eyes
It's so clear

Here's the mirror
Behind there is a screen
On both ways you can get in

Don't think twice before you listen to your heart
Follow the trace of a new start

What you need
And everything you feel
Is just a question of the deal

In the eye of storm you'll see a lonely dove
The experience of survival is the key
To the gravity of love

Voices:
Oh furtuna, velut luna
Oh fortuna, velut luna

The path of excess leads to the Tower of Wisdom

Try to think about it
That's the chance to live your life and discover
What it is
It's the gravity of love

Voices:
Oh furtuna, velut luna
Oh fortuna, velut luna

Look around just people
Can you hear the voice?
Find the one who'll guide you
To the limits of your choice

If you're in the eye of storm
Just think of the lonely dove
The experience of survival is the key
To the gravity of love

Voices:
Oh furtuna, velut luna
Oh fortuna, velut luna

The Killers - Somebody Told Me


De volta as atividades depois de um tempo parado sem motivos aparentes. Apenas não encontrava motivação para postar aqui.

Mas o fato é que voltei e espero publicar bastante coisa durante esse tempo.

E o primeiro post da minha volta é para consertar um erro quase que imperdoável meu,o de não ter colocado nenhum post do The Killers ainda. Tentarei reparar esse erro colocando Somebody Told Me. A lendária música do Killers.

Atire a primeira pedra aquele que não saia cantando pelas ruas well somedody told me, you had a boyfriend, who looks likes a girlfriend, that i had in february of last year, it's not confidential, i've got potecial. Esse refrão simplesmente magnífico pois mesmo você não escutando a música durante anos você lembrará perfeitamente de cada parte dele.

Além do que a sonoridade dessa música traz uma agitação boa para a sua mente.

Letra:

Breaking my back just to know your name
Seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game
I'm breaking my back just to know your name
But heaven ain't close in a place like this
Anything goes but don't blink you might miss
Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this
I said heaven ain't close in a place like this
Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
Never thought I'd let a rumour ruin my moonlight

Well somebody told me
You had a boyfriend
Who looks like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year
It's not confidential
I've got potential

Ready? Let's roll into something new
Taking its toll and I'm leaving without you
Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this
I said heaven ain't close in a place like this
Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
Never thought I'd let a rumour ruin my moonlight

Somebody told me
You had a boyfriend
Who looks like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year
It's not confidential
I've got potential
A rushin', a rushin' around

Place yourself for me
I said maybe baby please
But I just don't know now
When all I wanna do is try

[x3]
Somebody told me
You had a boyfriend
Who looks like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year
It's not confidential
I've got potential
A rushin', a rushin' around
