Express yourself

Come on girls
Do you believe in love?
'Cause I got something to say about it
And it goes something like this

Don't go for second best baby
Put your love to the test
You know, you know, you've got to
Make him express how he feels
And maybe then you'll know your love is real

You don't need diamond rings
Or eighteen karat gold
Fancy cars that go very fast
You know they never last, no, no
What you need is a big strong hand
To lift you to your higher ground
Make you feel like a queen on a throne
Make him love you till you can't come down
[You'll never come down]
(chorus)
Long stem roses are the way to your heart
But he needs to start with your head
Satin sheets are very romantic
What happens when you're not in bed
You deserve the best in life
So if the time isn't right then move on
Second best is never enough
You'll do much better baby on your own
[Baby on your own]
(chorus)
Express yourself
[You've got to make him]
Express himself
Hey, hey, hey, hey
So if you want it right now, make him show you how
Express what he's got, oh baby ready or not

And when you're gone he might regret it
Think about the love he once had
Try to carry on, but he just won't get it
He'll be back on his knees
To express himself
[You've got to make him]
Express himself
Hey hey
What you need is a big strong hand
To lift you to your higher ground
Make you feel like a queen on a throne
Make him love you till you can't come down
[You'll never come down]

Once

Ví la película de Once (Érase una vez). En mi opinión una película verdaderamente valiosa y con excelente música. Aquí está la letra del tema principal con alguna interpretación que se le ha dado. Enjoy it.

I don't know you ~ I just met you.
But I want you ~ but I like you a lot
All the more for that ~ because for some reason I want to know all about you.
Words fall through me ~ I'm saying things I usually don't say to other people
And always fool me
And I can't react ~ I'm not sure what to do
And games that never amount ~ I'm starting to play games to make you like me more
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out ~ eventually I'll stop playing games when I know you want me.
Take this sinking boat and point it home ~ say you like me too and want to take me home with you
We've still got time ~ it's early!
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice ~ Say yes, but it's ok if you say no.
You've made it now ~ You agreed!
Falling slowly, eyes that know me ~ falling in love with the person, feeling that they know you the way no one else does.
And I can't go back ~ life before was ok, now with love it is wonderful, if he/she were to lose that love, it would be really tough going back to being alone.
Moods that take me and erase me ~ I forget how I usually act and I'm feeling like a new person.
And I'm painted black - blank
You have suffered enough - You've been through some tough relationships (talking to the person he/she loves)
And warred with yourself ~ You've battled with letting yourself Love me.
It's time that you won ~ You love me now and you have one because it is for real this time.
Take this sinking boat and point it home ~ Let's make a home together.
We've still got time ~ We have time to do all the things we want to do together.
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice - Say yes, but it is ok if you say no.
You've made it now ~ You've made the decision to love me.
Falling slowly sing your melody ~ You lead the way
I'll sing along ~ I'll follow

15 step

"15 Step"
How come I end up where I started?
How come I end up where I went wrong?
Won't take my eyes off the ball again
You reel me out then you cut the string
How come I end up where I started?
How come I end up where I went wrong?
I won't take my eyes off the ball again
First you reel me out and then you cut the string
You used to be alright
What happened?
Did the cat get your tongue?
Did your string come undone?
One by one
One by one
It comes to us all
It's as soft as your pillow
You used to be alright
What happened
Etcetera, etcetera
Facts for whatever
Fifteen steps (PINCHAR AQUI PARA VER VIDEO)
Then a sheer drop
How come I end up where I started?
How can I end up where I went wrong?
Won't take my eyes off the ball again
You reel me out and you cut the string

Just feel it.
Just dance it.
Just do it.
Just thinking... why?

NKOTB

I r al concierto de los NKOTB ha sido una experiencia, sobre todo porque no fue planeada con anticipación y esas son las que más se disfrutan.
Salía del trabajo cuando recibí la llamda de K. Hey Zet, ¿Porqué no vamos al concierto de NKOTB?----¿Cuándo?---Hoy, en un rato.--- Bueno, vamos.
Esa fue toda nuestra planeación.
En el auditorio nacional el público eran señoras de 30 a 45 años reviviendo su fanatismo de adolescencia. Bailabamos, gritábamos, nos emocionábamos con los NKOTB.
La mejor parte eran los esposos, los cuales con brazos cruzados y algunos con bostezos, "compartían" con sus esposas el gusto por los NKOTB.
Realmente disfruté del concierto, aún cuando no me sabía muchas canciones. Pero sí las importantes: Step by Step, The right stuff, Tonigth.

La mercadotecnia de los reencuentros está completamente enfocada a explotar el poder adquisitivo de las personas que alguna vez fueron fans del grupo. Además, aprovecha la vena "melancólica" que nace en dichos eventos.
Aun sabiendo que era parte de este "show" me emocioné como la más fan, no paramos de bailar y gritar.

Fragmentos

La distancia es el naufragio
que abatió sobre mi vida,
las auroras más cansadas,
las más tristes despedidas,
las noches más solitarias
de las que tuviera razón
y aunque clamo a la cordura,
a que me libre de estas ansias
soy víctima del impulso
de mi propio corazón.

Mientras escucho a los beatles

There are places I'll remember all my life-----Ayer recordé
Though some have changed---------pero tu ya no estabas, sólo yo
Some forever not for better----------y no la misma, he cambiado,
Some have gone and some remain---- el camino nos llevó por distintos rumbos
All these places have their moments----pero cuando se cruzaron ¡Qué felices fuimos!
With lovers and friends I still can recall-----imborrables momentos
Some are dead and some are living-----viven en la eternidad, ¿regresarán?
In my life I've loved them all-----no lo sé, pero esos encuentros me marcaron
But of all these friends and lovers----pero ahora cada quien en su presente
There is no one compares with you-----lo disfrutará más que su pasado
And these memories lose their meaning---y lo pasado cada día será menos mío
When I think of love as something new------lo presente lo renovará todo
Though I know I'll never lose affection--y cuando haya pasado, lo querré un tiempo
For people and things that went before-----pero después el presente me hará olvidar
I know I'll often stop and think about them-----nunca viviré de recuerdos
In my life I love you more----------quiero vivir en el eterno presente
Though I know I'll never lose affection----sin fin, sin límite, sin espacio, sin barreras
For people and things that went before--algunos días me intentará dominar lo pasado
I know I'll often stop and think about them-----pero no me vencerá
In my life I love you more-------------------------porque Tú sigues por acá...
In my life I love you more.-------------------

Terminaba la canción de los Beatles y seguía sumida en pensamientos...

Delhi

Delhisounds. Delhinfinito. Delhisperat. Delhiamat.

Delhi está bañada de filosofía oriental: es un eterno retorno. Parece que viene el clímax, pero te mantiene en el mismo lugar todo el tiempo, aún cuando genera tan distintas impresiones...

Mezcla de sonidos. Ruidos armoniosos. Mares lejanos.

Mundos cercanos. Universos pérdidos. Guitarras deliciosas.

Percusiones orientales. Planetas misteriosos. Acordes internos.

Corazones partidos. Espíritus encarcelados. Personas distantes.

Mares Infinitos...Infinitas posibilidades de encuentros.

Es enigmática, (H.)...reflejo de interioridades, espejo de angustias, ansiedad, en algunos momentos aplasta el corazón, pero es un sentimiento de fascinación y atracción.

Delhi es un péndulo de sensaciones:

Tradicional-futurista; batalla pacífica; viento inmóvil; tiempo estático; profundidad cercana; Lógica difusa; complejamente sencillo...

Escribo este post, cuando escucho a Delhi...púpilas verde mar;

Ay Amor...

De canciones...
Esta me gusta particularmente: "sin que suene a hoja en blanco, a palabra ocasional, digo Te quiero de soldado, de guitarra y pelo largo, porque creo en ellos, porque tengo un credo y tengo la verdad enfrente si te veo como patria y el deber de caminar amandote "
va el video con todo y la introducción del autor.
