Utopia is always somewhere out there!

Crimson e Even Though

Há duas semanas estava eu no concerto de Morcheeba e de Goldfrapp. Escusado será dizer que adorei adorei, saltei, cantei, pulei...

Morcheeba começaram por tocar uma série de musicas mais antiguinhas que eu conhecia do álbum Big Calm (1998) ou seja ouvia esse álbum em loop no meu tempo de Madeira! Tão bom... "The Sea" ainda me faz viajar até aquele tempo e aquele lugar onde tanto mudou...
Tocaram também algumas músicas do novo álbum [Já com a fantástica Skye de volta] que eu ainda não conhecia, mas houveram 2 que ficaram cá dentro a tocar baixinho até hoje. Quero então partilhar com tod@s, ou mesmo apenas comigo mesma [as a reader] essas duas músicas. deixo aqui a letra e o habitual "video" do youtube.

"Crimson" e "Even Though" são os seus nomes.
A que me toca mais é a "Crimson" especialmente na parte em que a Skye canta - "Hell bound, Hopeless for you ... Hell bound, helpless, is true"... Parece que ainda estamos ali a uns escassos 3 metros com o som e as luzes nítidos a nos atravessar. Lindo, foi lindoooooo! Quero mais.
A "Even Though" traz-me à memória o vestido vermelho de penas de pavão "waving" a par com os braços da Skye parecendo ondas calmas.
Bem, muito bom! Só visto. A ver se também coloco aqui vídeos do concerto ao vivo!

Crimson

On the roadside by the wreckage
With my head in my hands
Wish I'd never got your message
Felt too late to change our plans

I can smell the good years burning
And it won't fade away
Windscreen broken, you're bleeding
Rolling action replay

Hell bound hopeless for you
Nothing left to hold onto
Hell bound helpless it's true
This crimson crystal view

There's wild berries in the hedgerow
All I need is a drink
Got to soothe my shattered senses
Please forgive me time to think

Down the dusty trails of treason
Lies a dangerous game, there's a danger
Sunshine suicide survivor
Wasted angel numb the pain, so wasted

Hell bound hopeless for you
Nothing left to hold onto
Hell bound helpless it's true
This crimson crystal view

Hell bound hopeless for you

Nothing left to hold onto
Hell bound helpless it's true
This crimson crystal view

Hell bound
Hopeless for you
Hell bound
Hopeless for you

Hell bound
Hopeless for you
Hell bound
Hopeless for you

Even Though

Cast adrift in space no fear
By a pepper moon
Look at all the waste out here
Did we peak too soon

All the deadly dreams we had
That I can't believe
The universal messages
That we don't receive

Even though we know it's forever changing
Even though we know we lie and wait
Even though we know the hidden danger
I hope it's not too late

Slowly follow shining stars
Feel the solar flare
I'm on borrowed time right now
And I'm low on air
It's a pity you can't see such a travesty
Gonna give myself to the deep majesty

Even though we know it's forever changing
Even though we know we lie and wait
Even though we know the hidden danger
I hope it's not too late

Even though we know it's forever changing
Even though we know we don't have long
Even though we know there's a hidden danger
I hope we don't go wrong

Even though we know it's forever changing
Even though we know we lie and wait
Even though we know the hidden danger
I hope it's not too late

Too fast to live... Too young to die

Adoro este senhor Bryan, adoro a voz dele, as letras, o erotismo nas melodias... Heis mais uma das que ficarão para sempre...

Your Painted Smile - Bryan Ferry

Too fast to live
Too young to die
One stolen kiss babe
A certain smile
We never close babe
We dance all night
I'm lost inside babe
Your painted smile
The name of the place
You'll never know babe
The state I'm in
It's a plastic world babe
No tiger skin
Don't talk to me
Your perfume sighs
I'm lost inside babe
Your painted smile

Give You Away - James Yuill

Há uns tempos "postei" a musica (video) mas agora deixo aqui a letra também. Muito gira esta música, muito peacefull beat... Foi a primeira coisa que ouvi hoje e ainda continua a tocar para estes lados!

Give You Away

Nobody knows it, but it’s true
I hate myself and I hate you too
But I won’t tell anyone
No I won’t tell anyone

This is a secret I have kept
This is a secret that I’ll never forget
But I won’t tell anyone
No I won’t tell anyone

It’s all right
Just take your time
Just take your time
Just take your time

Oh love, won’t you open up your heart and speak
Won’t you let your two tongues breed beneath
Whatever you have to say
I won’t give you away
Give you away
Give you away

I’m locking it up inside my mind
Cos one of these day’s you’re gonna find out for yourself
Cos I won’t tell anyone
No I won’t tell anyone

It’s all right
Just take your time
Just take your time
Just take your time

Oh love, won’t you open up your heart and speak
Won’t you let your two tongues breed beneath
Whatever you have to say
I can’t give you away
Give you away
Give you away

They're selling us something - I don't need...
They're selling us something, babe - You shouldn't believe!

30 anos

Há precisamente 30 anos era segunda-feira e chovia lá fora!
tanto tempo que passou a correr e eu continuo a gostar dela [chuva]...

i don’t just want your heart,

i want your flesh, your skin and your blood and bones..

your voice, your thoughts, your pulse

…and most of all

your fingerprints everywhere…

Black Cherry

How can it be
I can taste you now
How can I see
When you're everything

All the world in one grain of sand
And I've blown it
All my world in one grain of sand
And you own it

Black cherry
Black cherry stone
Black cherry
Black cherry

Hearing you say it
I could die
Trembling star
Just reminds me
All the world in one grain of sand
And I've blown it
All my world in one grain of sand
And you own it

Black cherry
Black cherry stone
Black cherry
Black cherry

Excite me
Ignite me
Oh and you know
I miss you
I kiss you
Oh and you know

Black cherry
Black cherry stone
Black cherry
Black cherry

Excite me
Ignite me
Oh and you know
I miss you
I kiss you
Oh and you know

A borracha que apaga os erros!

Sou da opinião "never regreat what you have done", mas as vezes só faço mesmo "borrada" (ai sounded brasileiro...) ou melhor digo coisas que não devo!
Se pudesse instalava uma destas super borrachas mesmo à saída da minha "boca"... ou melhor as tantas perto da língua!
Julie Divine in change mode!

let's get lost!

brests!

Remember when You and I had nicknames for each other?

La Roux Unplugged At Viktor & Rolf Monsieur

Esta menina de vez em quando surpreende-me!
Orgãozinho de igreja... Oh yeahhh!
Super fashion!

How far would you go to protect a secret?

The Reader

Behind the mystery lies a truth that will make you question everything you know.

Unlock the mystery...

O Leitor, sem dúvida um dos melhores filmes que já vi. Voltei a cruzar-me, fruto do acaso, com este tesouro da sétima arte e agora vou ter de o ver novamente!
Kate Wislet arrasa no papel de Hanna Schmitz, uma ex colaboradora do regime de Adolf Hitler. Nunca vi pessoa/ personagem tão mais fria e distante como esta, tornando-se deliciosamente perturbante "segui-la" do princípio ao fim da película.
