First Aid Kit "Hard Believer"



Grupo/Interprete: First Aid Kit
Canción: Hard Believer
Disco: The Big Black & The Blue (2010)
Estilo: Indie pop


Duo formado por la hermanas Söderberg en 2007, cancion que pertenece a su segundo disco, publicado este año.



So you ask for my opinion well what is there to say
To be honest and just foolish won’t make you want to stay
You’ve got to go on and get moving and I can’t do that for you
Got so many plans and so much you want to do

Love is tough, time is rough
On me

Well I see you’ve got your bible your delusion imagery
Well I don’t need your eternity or your meaning to feel free
I just live because I love to and that’s enough you see
So don’t come preach about morality that’s just human sense to me

Love is tough, time is rough
On me

And it’s one life and it’s this life and it’s beautiful

Love is tough, time is rough
On me

Le Sport "It´s not the end of the world"

Canción: It´s not the end of the world  
Disco: Euro, Deluxe Dance Party (2006)  
Estilo: Indie Pop, Electro-Pop



catch the first train
catch the first bus
catch the first plane
take your first chance to get away
you're too good for this place

you can go down under
you can take a foreign lover
you can get so high
and don't come down
until you've seen it all

until leaves begin to fall
until snow begins to fall
why dont you take your time
until you change your mind

it's not too serious
it's not the end of the world
and i love your shoes and your dress tonight
but you never invited me to your party

I used to wait for hours outside your house
outside your house
coz you were always late to see me and I
would wait for you forever

until leaves begin to fall
until snow begins to fall
why don't you take your time
until you change your mind

it's not too serious
it's not the end of the world
and we can dance so close tonight but you know
that you never even looked at me when we were younger

Free Energy "Free Energy"


Grupo/Interprete: Free Energy
Canción: Free Energy
Disco: Stuck on nothing (2010)
Estilo: Indie Rock, AOR, Pop Rock

Esta banda es de Filadelfia. Esta cancion eta en su disco de debut, mezcla de estilos con guiños al AOR, T-Rex o Thin Lizzy. 



We're breakin out this time
makin out with the wind
and i'm so disconnected
i'm never gonna check back in

we're gonna start a new life
see how it goes
before we're tired and too slow

we'll never get any other life
there's too far to go
so together we make this whole

can you remember the moment
did you forget that time?
we were switching a ride in the car coming by
on a saturday night

you said theres nothing to wait for
theres nothing to know
were never waking up if we never let it go
i said i wanna believe but im out of control
and ive got so far to go, woah

its coming out of the dark now
its dripping off my skin
its on the tip of my tongue as i drift through my body
into the city within

and now the people are breathing
the air is alive
its coming out of the street light
and now the battle is over
whenever we deicide that
theres nothing left to hide

this is all weve got tonight
this is all weve got tonight
we are young and still alive
now the time is on our side

right now, we'll make it right now
when every thought is electrical
right now, we'll make it right now
the dream is coming

youre gonna see how it works
youre gonna see it connect
youre gonna see em surrender oh

right now, we'll make it right now
or nothing's gonna change
and maybe we already know the way
forever every day

do you know why the spirit's calling
for my end to see?
it reminds us we're alive, this moment,
of who we are, what we could be

there's nothing to pray for
there's nothing to know
we're never waking up if we never let it go
the fever is coming
it's shaking the ground
the city's alive so tonight we break out
it's coming apart now it's not too far
we'll never know why we arrive where we are
we'll never know why we bring the seed in these times
but if you wanna get high kid, just open your eyes

this is all we've got tonight
this is all we got tonight
we are young and still alive
and now the time is on our side

this is all we got tonight
this is all we got tonight
we are young and still alive
and now the time is on our side

this is all we got tonight
this is all we got tonight
we are young and still alive

Counting Crows "Rain King"



Grupo/Interprete: Counting Crows
Canción: Rain King
Disco: August and everything after (1993)
Estilo: Pop Rock

Exitosa banda de San Francisco, constituida en 1991.



When I think of heaven (Deliver me in a black-winged bird)
I think of flying down into a sea of pens and feathers
and all other instruments of faith and sex and God
In the belly of a black-winged bird
Don't try to feed me
I've been here before and I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of the Queen I belong anywhere but in between
She's been crying I've been thinking And I am the Rain King

Mama, why am I so alone?
I can't go outside
I'm scared I might not make it home
I'm alive but I'm sinking in
If there's anyone at home at your place
Why don't you invite me in
Don't try to bleed me
I've been there before and I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of the Queen
I belong anywhere but in between
She's been lying
I've been sinking
And I am the Rain King

Hey, I only want the same as anyone
Henderson is waiting for the sun
Oh, it seems night endlessly begins and ends
After all the dreaming I come home again...

When I think of heaven (Deliver me in a black-winged bird)
I think of dying Lay me down in a field of flame and heather
Render up my body into the burning heart of God in the belly of a black-winged bird
Don't try to bleed me
I've been here before and I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of the Queen
I belong anywhere but in between
She's been dying
I been drinking and I am the Rain King.

Version Acustica

Tom Waits "Downtown Train"




Grupo/Interprete: Tom Waits
Canción: Downtown train
Disco: Rain Dogs
Estilo: Pop Rock alternativo, Rock Experimental

Veinticinco años cumple este disco de Tom Waits, uno de los malditos oficiales del Rock. la cancion: posiblemente una de las mas conocidas de este tipo.



Outside another yellow moon
punched a hole in the nighttime, yes
I climb through the window and down the street
shining like a new dime
the downtown trains are full with all those Brooklyn girls
they try so hard to break out of their little worlds

You wave your hand and they scatter like crows
they have nothing that will ever capture your heart
theyr'e just thorns without the rose
be careful of them in the dark
oh if I was the one
you chose to be your only one
oh baby can't you hear me now

Chorus

Will I see you tonight
on a downtown train
every night is just the same
you leave me lonely now

I know your window and I know it's late
I know your stairs and your doorway
I walk down your street and past your gate
I stand by the light at the four way
you watch them as they fall
they all have heart attacks
they stay at the carnival
but they'll never win you back

Chorus

Will I see you tonight on a downtown train
where every night is just the same you leave me lonely
will I see you tonight on a downtown train
all of my dreams just fall like rain
all upon a downtown train

Marvelous 3 "You´re so Yesterday"



Grupo/Interprete: Marvelous 3
Canción: You´re so yesterday
Disco: Hey! Album (1999)
Estilo: Power pop, Indie Rock, Punk Pop


Solo cuatro años duro la aventura musical de este trio de Atlanta (1997-2001) con tres disco publicados. Esta cancion es del segundo disco. Amalgama de estilos, influencia de The Knack, The Ramones y Cheap Trick y una descarada vocacion comercial que no tuvo su reflejo ni en las listas, ni en las ventas.





I guess I met the devil, but I sure didn't know no better
You were kool as hell like e-mail, but still timeless like a letter
As I sit and I stare at the satanic glare, on the glass frame in front of your face
You're alone on my shelf, yelling, "look at yourself"
I feel like Bobby Brady breaking the vase

But now you're all screwed up

(chorus)
You're so yesterday
Miles away
Promised myself on new years day
I'd take a bath today
And wash you away
As all of your little blonde hairs go down the drain

Your sister called me yesterday to tell me I was a loser
At least I haven't lost my mind, and at least I'm not a boozer
As I tried to heed to your wants and your needs
You were solemnly lost in space
So keep reading your books on "how to give dirtly looks"
Everytime I should be put in my place

Now you're all screwed up

(chorus)

I guess I met the devil, but I sure didn't know no better
You were cool as hell like e-mail, but still timeless like a letter

(chorus)
