Estilo: No me atrevo a clasificar a esta banda

branquias bajo el agua es el baile de actualidad
branquias bajo el agua, ideales go-gós
siente la tentación de arrojarte de una vez en mi pecera
¡cielos! los peces asustados..

algas cianofíceas
algas verdeazuladas
"branquiando" entre las algas
danzando entre las algas

inmersión en la pecera
inmersión en mi pecera
inmersión en tu pecera
¡listos..! para la inmersión

Celibate Rifles "Ice Blue"

Grupo: Celibates Rifles
Canción: Ice Blue
Disco: Sideroxylon (1983) Primer disco
Discográfica: Hot
Estilo: Nuevo Rock Americano (Hecho en Australia)

Give me something to believe in, a reason to try
Teach me how to live, 'cos I know to die
Opalescent eyes on my kitchen floor
Took too much now, she don't have to take anymore
Was she going to or coming from
Drowning in the river where the red rose runs
Was it in her background in her home
Was lonely with smack better than being alone

A modern sacrifice, oh how romantic
She's always telling me, my life's so tragic

She don't come around my back door
Don't come around here like she used to before
Ice blue fingers on my window pane
Tell me that I won't see her again
She'd laugh and say I wonder what it's like to die
She says there's no love here, don't ask me why
I Can't find a reason for the things I do
It's so boring for me, is it boring for you?

A modern sacrifice, oh how romantic
She's always telling me, my life's so tragic

Van Morrison. Dedicado a Andrés Montes

Grupo: Van Morrison
Canción: Domino
Disco: It´s too late to stop now ... (1974)
Discográfica: Mercury

Durante los cinco de meses de vida de este blog sólo he hecho referencia a la actualidad cuando España fue campeona de Europa de baloncesto. Hoy voy a hacer otra excepción, poniendo esta canción, una de las favoritas de uno de los discos favoritos de Andrés Montes, el cual, como es sabido, fallleció el pasado viernes. No tenía ni idea de futbol (como yo) y de baloncesto andaba justo (para eso estaba Daimiel) pero reconozco que me partía con sus comentarios de madrugada viendo la NBA.

Parte del artículo entrevista que concedió a El Pais el 30 de agosto de 2006

Con fama de melómano, la recomendación que tiene más clara es la musical. It's too late to stop now, de Van Morrison. "Me impactó. Hay quien dice que es el mejor directo de la historia, es del 74 de la gira que hizo por Estados Unidos. Todos los temas son buenísimos, Gloria, Domino, o Caravan. Lo tenía en vinilo y hace 30 años me ofrecieron 3.000 pesetas, ahora seguro que valdría un dineral. Es una obra cumbre".

HASTA SIEMPRE

Ahora quiero ser tu perro

The Alarm "Where were you hiding when the storm broke?"

Grupo: The Alarm
Canción: Where were you hiding when the storm broke?
Disco: Declaration (1984) primer disco
Discográfica: IRS
Estilo: Pop-Rock Alternativo

Born into a war and peace
Forced to choose between a right and wrong
Each man kills the thing he loves
For better or for worse
Face to face with a ragged truth
Mixed up and torn in two
And turned your back on the only thing
That could save you from yourself

Where were you hiding
When the storm broke
When the rain began to fall
When the thunder and the lightning struck
And the rain and the four winds did howl

After all time building up
Comes inevitable knocking down
(one by one )
Comes receivers liars gamblers
Pick pocket entourage
(two by two)
Selling out is a cardinal sin
Sinning with a safety net (three by three)
They say that all things come in threes
Here comes the third degree

Where were you hiding
When the storm broke
When the rain began to fall
When the thunder and the lightning struck
And the rain and the four winds did howl

All cards are marked
And all fates will collide
The truth is the truth
Or the truth is surely a lie
Get back in your shelter
If you can't come down off the fence
And one more question
Where were you?
Where were you?

Where were you hiding
When the storm broke
When the rain began to fall
When the thunder and the lightning struck
And the four winds did howl
Where were you hiding
When the storm broke
When the rain began to fall
Where were you hiding
When the storm broke
When the rain began to fall
Where were you hiding

Four
Winds
Howl

She wears denim wherever she goes
Says she's gonna get some records by the status quo
Still she won't be forced against her will
Oh yeah...Oh yeah...
Oh yeah...Oh yeah...
Says she don't do drugs but she does the pill
I didn't want to hurt you oh yeah...
I didn't want to hurt you oh yeah...
Says she likes the group 'cause we pull in the slack
Says she likes my hair 'cause it's down my back
When she's at the gig she takes her car
Oh yeah...Oh yeah...
And she drive us home if it is in a bar
I didn't want to hurt you oh yeah...
Oh yeah...Oh yeah...
(Instrumental)
I didn't want to hurt you oh yeah...
I didn't want to hurt you oh yeah...
Aaaah... Aaaah... AaaahI didn't want to hurt you oh yeah...

The Clash "Spanish Bombs"

Grupo: The Clash
Canción: Spanish Bomb
Disco: London Calling
Discográfica: EPIC
Estilo: punk rock pero del bueno

Spanish songs in Andalucia,
the shooting sites in the days of ’39.
Oh, please leave, the VENTANA open.
Federico Lorca is dead and gone:
bullet holes in the cemetery walls,
the black cars of the Guardia Civil.
Spanish bombs on the Costa Rica -
I’m flying on in a DC-10 tonight.

Spanish bombs; yo te quiero infinito.
Yo te quiero, oh mi corazón.
Spanish bombs; yo te quiero infinito.
Yo te quiero, oh mi corazón.

Spanish weeks in my disco casino;
the freedom fighters died upon the hill.
They sang the red flag,
they wore the black one -
but after they died, it was Mockingbird Hill.
Back home, the buses went up in flashes,
the Irish tomb was drenched in blood.
Spanish bombs shatter the hotels.
My señorita’s rose was nipped in the bud.

Spanish bombs; yo te quiero infinito.
Yo te quiero, oh mi corazón.
Spanish bombs; yo te quiero infinito.
Yo te quiero, oh mi corazón.

The hillsides ring with “free the people” -
or can I hear the echo from the days of ’39
with trenches full of poets,
the ragged army, fixing bayonets to fight the other line?
Spanish bombs rock the province;
I’m hearing music from another time.
Spanish bombs on the Costa Brava;
I’m flying in on a DC-10 tonight.

Spanish bombs; yo te quiero infinito.
Yo te quiero, oh mi corazón.
Spanish bombs; yo te quiero infinito.
Yo te quiero, oh mi corazón,
oh mi corazón,
oh mi corazón.

Spanish songs in Andalucia:
mandolina, oh mi corazón.
Spanish songs in Granada, oh mi corazón,
oh mi corazón,
oh mi corazón,
oh mi corazón.

crack that whip
give the past the slip
step on a crack
break your momma's back
when a problem comes along
you must whip it
before the cream sits out too long
you must whip it
when something's going wrong
you must whip it

now whip it
into shape
shape it up
get straight
go forward
move ahead
try to detect it
it's not too late
to whip it
whip it good

when a good time turns around
you must whip it
you will never live it down
unless you whip it
no one gets away
until they whip it

i say whip it
whip it good
i say whip it
whip it good

crack that whip
give the past the slip
step on a crack
break your momma's back
when a problem comes along
you must whip it
before the cream sits out too long
you must whip it
when something's going wrong
you must whip it

now whip it
into shape
shape it up
get straight
go forward
move ahead
try to detect it
it's not too late
to whip it
into shape
shape it up
get straight
go forward
move ahead
try to detect it
it's not too late
to whip it
whip it good
