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
