Ciudadela - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Di a cada uno: tienes razón. Porque tiene razón. Pero condúcelos más alto en su montaña; pues el esfuerzo de escalar, que rehusarían por ellos mismos, exige tanto de los músculos como del corazón. . . ¿cómo conocerán los hombres sus actos si no han escalado trabajosamente la montaña, en soledad, para trasmutarse en silencio?.


No me interesa aquel que haya conocido, llevado en litera,
mil cimas de montañas y así observado mil paisajes porque,
en primer lugar, no conocerá uno solo verdaderamente y, luego,
porque mil paisajes no constituyen más que
una partícula de polvo en la inmensidad del mundo.
Me interesará sólo el que haya ejercitado sus músculos en la ascensión de una montaña, aunque sea la única, y así estar capacitado para comprender todos los paisajes por venir y, mejor que el otro, los mil paisajes que le han enseñado.

Mano a mano - Andres Calamaro

Rechiflado en mi tristeza, te evoco y veo que has sido
en mi pobre vida paria sólo una buena mujer.
Tu presencia de bacana puso calor en mi nido,
fuiste buena, consecuente, y yo sé que me has querido
como no quisiste a nadie, como no podrás querer.
Se dio el juego de remanye cuando vos, pobre percanta,
gambeteabas la pobreza en la casa de pensión.
Hoy sos toda una bacana, la vida te ríe y canta,
Ios morlacos del otario los jugás a la marchanta
como juega el gato maula con el mísero ratón.
Hoy tenés el mate lleno de infelices ilusiones,
te engrupieron los otarios, las amigas y el gavión;
la milonga, entre magnates, con sus locas tentaciones,
donde triunfan y claudican milongueras pretensiones,
se te ha entrado muy adentro en tu pobre corazón.
Nada debo agradecerte, mano a mano hemos quedado;
no me importa lo que has hecho, lo que hacés ni lo que harás...
Los favores recibidos creo habértelos pagado
y, si alguna deuda chica sin querer se me ha olvidado,
en la cuenta del otario que tenés se la cargás.
Mientras tanto, que tus triunfos, pobres triunfos pasajeros,
sean una larga fila de riquezas y placer;
que el bacán que te acamala tenga pesos duraderos,
que te abrás de las paradas con cafishos milongueros
y que digan los muchachos: Es una buena mujer.
Y mañana, cuando seas descolado mueble viejo
y no tengas esperanzas en tu pobre corazón,
si precisás una ayuda, si te hace falta un consejo,
acordate de este amigo que ha de jugarse el pellejo
pa'ayudarte en lo que pueda cuando llegue la ocasión.

Demasiado corazón - Willy DeVille

Every morning I'm broken
Every day I die
Every night I weaken
And every night I cry
Standing in the rain
In the street outside
Running down my face
Tears in my eyes

Demasiado Corazón
Don't know why I wake up
Don't know why I try
Was that me the cool one
Or some other guy
standing in the shadows
Of the sky above
No one knows I'm crying
Beaten by my love

Demasiado Corazón
 
Cada manana
Estoy quebrado
Y por las noches
Me despierto
Lacrimas en mi cara
Abajo de la lluvia
Lonely with my pride
Holding in my pain

Demasiado Corazón

Malagueña Salerosa - Chingón

Qué bonitos ojos tienes
Debajo de esas dos cejas
Debajo de esas dos cejas
Qué bonitos ojos tienes.

Ellos me quieren mirar
Pero si tú no los dejas
Pero si tú no los dejas
Ni siquiera parpadear.

Malagueña salerosa
Besar tus labios quisiera
Besar tus labios quisiera.
Malagueña salerosa
Y decirte niña hermosa.

Que eres linda y hechicera,
Que eres linda y hechicera
Como el candor de una rosa.

Si por pobre me desprecias
Yo te concedo razon
Yo te concedo razon
Si por pobre me desprecias.

Yo no te ofrezco riquezas
Te ofrezco mi corazón
Te ofrezco mi corazón
A cambio de mi pobreza.

Malagueña salerosa
Besar tus labios quisiera
Besar tus labios quisiera.
Malagueña salerosa
Y decirte niña hermosa.

Que eres linda y hechicera,
Que eres linda y hechicera
Como el candor de una rosa.
Y decirte niña hermosa.

La Bamba - Los Lobos (1987)


Quedará el salón vacío con un montón de esperanzas que irán camino al olvido... ¡A bailar, a bailar que la orquesta se va! (Homero Expósito)
Para bailar la bamba
Se necesita una poca de gracia
Una poca de gracia para mi para ti
Arriba y arriba
Y arriba y arriba por ti seré
Yo no soy marinero
Soy capitan

Ain't no sunshine - Bill Withers

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone.
It's not warm when she's away.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long anytime she goes away.

Wonder this time where she's gone,
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home anytime she goes away.

And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

Hey, I ought to leave the young thing alone,
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone, only darkness everyday.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
And this house just ain't no home anytime she goes away.

Anytime she goes away.

Cherish the day - Sade

You're ruling the way that I move
And I breathe your air
You only can rescue me
This is my prayer

If you were mine
If you were mine
I wouldn't want to go to heaven

I cherish the day
I won't go astray
I won't be afraid
You won't catch me running
You're ruling the way that I move
You take my air

You show me how deep love can be

You're ruling the way that I move
And I breathe your air
You only can rescue me
This is my prayer

I cherish the day
I won't go astray
I won't be afraid
You won't catch me running
I cherish the day
I won't go astray
I won't be afraid
Won't run away

You show me how deep love can be
You show me how deep love can be
This is my prayer

I cherish the day
I won't go astray
I won't be afraid
Won't run away
Won't shy

I cherish the day
I won't go astray
I cherish the day

She - Elvis Costello

She may be the face I can't forget
The trace of pleasure or regret
Maybe my treasure or the price I have to pay
She may be the song that summer sings
May be the chill that autumn brings
May be a hundred different things
Within the measure of a day

She may be the beauty or the beast
May be the famine or the feast
May turn each day into a Heaven or a Hell
She may be the mirror of my dreams
A smile reflected in a stream
She may not be what she may seem
Inside her shell....

She, who always seems so happy in a crowd
Whose eyes can be so private and so proud
No one's allowed to see them when they cry
She maybe the love that cannot hope to last
May come to me from shadows in the past
That I remember 'till the day I die

She maybe the reason I survive
The why and wherefore I'm alive
The one I care for through the rough and ready years

Me, I'll take the laughter and her tears
And make them all my souvenirs
For where she goes I've got to be
The meaning of my life is
She....She
Oh, she....

Too hurt to dance - Duffy

I was stood there in the shadows
Of a place we used to go
Drinking cocktail after cocktail
Wondering if you'd show
My head started spinning
My mouth was feeling dry
Lost inside the music
I was trying not to cry

If they call it heartache
If they call it heartache
Why is the rest of my body aching
Why is the rest of my body shaking
Please Mr DJ won't you turn the music down
Why can't you understand
I'm too hurt to dance tonight

I was sat there looking silent
He said I stood out from the crowd
He offered me a friendly face
To wipe away my frown
But I won't talk to strangers
Their words are all the same
So I drowned inside this drinking glass
To take away the pain

If they call it heartache
If they call it heartache
Why is the rest of my body aching
Why is the rest of my body shaking
Please Mr DJ won't you turn the music down
Why can't you understand
I'm too hurt to dance tonight

Please Mr DJ won't you turn the music down
Why can't you understand
I'm too hurt to dance tonight

ETTA JAMES

I heard church bells ring
I heard a choir singing
I saw my love walk down the aisle
on her finger he placed a ring

I saw them holding hands
She was standing there with my man
I heard them promise
Til death do us part
Each word
Was a pain
In my heart

All i could do was cry
All i could do was cry
I was losing the man that i love
and all i could do was cry

And now the wedding is over
Rice, rice has been thrown over their heads
For them life has just begun
but mine is ending


Something told me it was over
When I saw you and her talkin'
Something deep down in my soul said, 'Cry, girl'
When I saw you and that girl walkin' around

Whoo, I would rather, I would rather go blind, boy
Then to see you walk away from me, child, no

Whoo, so you see, I love you so much
That I don't wanna watch you leave me, baby
Most of all, I just don't, I just don't wanna be free, no

Whoo, whoo, I was just, I was just, I was just
Sittin here thinkin', of your kiss and your warm embrace, yeah
When the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips now, baby
Revealed the tears that was on my face, yeah

Whoo and baby, baby, I'd rather, I'd rather be blind, boy
Then to see you walk away, see you walk away from me, yeah
Whoo, baby, baby, baby, I'd rather be blind...



I dont want you to be no slave;
I dont want you to work all day;
But I want you to be true,
And I just wanna make love
to you.
Love to you
Love to youOoooohhooh
Love to you

All I want to do is wash your clothes;
I dont want to keep you indoors.
There is nothing for you to do
But keep me makin love to you.
Love to you
Love to youOoooohhooh
Love to you
And I can tell by the way you walk that walk;
I can hear by the way you talk that talk;
I can know by the way you treat your girl
That I can give you all the lovin in the whole wide world!
All I want you to do is make your bread!
Just to make sure youre well-fed!
I dont want you sad and blue!
And I just wanna make love to you.
Love to you
Love to youOoooohhooh
Love to youOoooh.

And I can tell by the way you walk that walk;
And I can hear by the way you talk that talk;
And I can know by the way you treat your girl
That I could give you all the lovin in the whole wide world!
Oh, all I wanna do - All I wanna do is cook your bread!
Just to make sure that youre well-fed!
I dont want you sad and blue,
And I just wanna make love to you.
Love to you
Love to youOoooohhooh
Yeah, love to youOoooh.
Love to you

Quoi - Jane Birkin

Jane Birkin & Serge Gainsbourg
Quoi ? De notre amour fou ne resterait que des cendres
Moi j'aimerais qu'la terre s'arrête pour descendre
Toi tu m'dis qu tu n'vaux pas la corde pour te pendre
C'est à laisser ou à prendre
Joie et douleur c'est ce que l'amour engendre
Sois au moins conscient que mon cœur peut se fendre
Soit dit en passant j'ai beaucoup à apprendre
Si j'ai bien su te comprendre
Amour cruel comme un duel
Dos à dos et sans merci
Tu as le choix des armes ou celui des larmes
Penses-y, penses-y
Et conçois que c'est à la mort à la vie
Quoi ? De notre amour fou ne resterait que des cendres
Moi j'aimerais qu'la terre s'arrête pour descendre
Toi tu préfères mourir que de te rendre
Va donc savoir va comprendre
Amour cruel comme en duel
Dos à dos et sans merci
Tu as le choix des armes ou celui des larmes
Penses-y, penses-y
Et conçois que c'est à la mort à la vie
Toi tu préfères mourir que de te rendre
Va donc savoir va comprendre
Quoi ? De notre amour fou ne resterait que des cendres
Moi j'aimerais qu'la terre s'arrête pour descendre
Toi tu m'dis qu tu n'vaux pas la corde pour te pendre
C'est à laisser ou à prendre

Comment te dire adieu - Françoise Hardy

Sous aucun pretexte je ne veux
avoir de reflexes malheureux,
il faut que tu m'expliques un peu mieux
comment te dire adieu.
mon coeur de silex vite prend feu,
ton coeur de pyrex resiste au feu,
je suis bien perplexe, je ne veux
me resoudre aux adieus.
Je sais bien qu'un ex amour n'a pas de chance,
ou si peu,
mais pour moi un explication voudrait mieux.
Sous aucun pretexte je ne veux
devant toi surexposer mes yeux,
derrière un kleenex je saurais mieux
comment te dire adieu,
comment te dire adieu.
Tu as mis a l'index nos nuits blanches,
nos matins gris-bleu,
mais pour moi un explication voudrait mieux.
sous aucun pretexte je ne veux
devant toi surexposer mes yeux,
derrière un kleenex je saurais mieux
comment te dire adieu,
comment te dire adieu,
comment te dire adieu.

Sway - Michael Buble

When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more

Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me

Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have the magic technique
When we sway I go weak

I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now

Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have the magic technique
When we sway I go weak

I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now

When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more

Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me

When marimbas start to play
Hold me close, make me sway
Like an ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more

Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me

Senza fine - Gino Paoli

Senza fine
Tu trascini la nostra vita
Senza un attimo di respiro
Per sognare
Per potere ricordare
Ciò che abbiamo già vissuto
Senza fine, tu sei un attimo senza fine
Non hai ieri
Non hai domani
Tutto è ormai nelle tue mani
Mani grandi
Mani senza fine
Non m'importa della luna
Non m'importa delle stelle
Tu per me sei luna e stelle
Tu per me sei sole e cielo
Tu per me sei tutto quanto
Tutto quanto io voglio avere
Senza fine...

Daydreamer - Adèle

Daydreamer,
sitting on the sea,
soaking up the sun,
he is a real lover,
making up the past and
feeling up his girl like hes never felt her figure before

A jaw dropper,
looks good when he walks,
is the subject of their talk
he would be hard to chase,
but good to catch
and he could change the world with his hands behind his back, oh

you can find him
sitting on your doorstep,
waiting for a surprise
and he will feel like
hes been there for hours
and you can tell that he'll be there for life

Daydreamer,
with eyes that make you melt,
he lends his coat for shelter
plus he's there for you when he shouldn't be,
but he stay all the same,
waits for you then sees you through

there's no way I could describe him
what I'll say is just what I'm hoping for

But I will find him ,
sitting on my doorstep,
waiting for a surprise
and he will feel like he's been there for hours
and I can tell that he'll be there for life.
And I can tell that he'll be there for life.

Stand by me - Ben E. King


When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh now now stand by me

Stand by me, stand by me

If the sky that we look upon

Should tumble and fall
And the mountains should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me

Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me-e, yeah

Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me, oh now now stand by me

Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

Darlin', darlin', stand by me-e, stand by me

Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

Falando sério - Claudia Leitte


Falando sério
É bem melhor você parar com essas coisas
De olhar pra mim com olhos de promessas
Depois sorrir como quem nada quer
Você não sabe
Mas é que eu tenho cicatrizes que a vida fez
E tenho medo de fazer planos
De tentar e sofrer outra vez
Falando sério
Eu não queria ter você por um programa
E apenas ser mais um em sua cama
Por uma noite apenas e nada mais
Falando sério
Entre nós dois tinha que haver mais sentimento
Não quero seu amor por um momento
E ter a vida inteira pra me arrepender

Carrie - Europe


When lights go down, i see no reason
for you to cry. we've been through this before
in every time, in every season,
god knows i've tried
so please don't ask for more.
Can't you see it in my eyes
this might be our last goodbye
Carrie, carrie, things they change my friend
carrie, carrie, maybe we'll meet again somewhere again
I read your mind, with no intentions
of being unkind, i wish i could explain
it all takes time, a whole lot of patience
if it's a crime, how come i feel no pain.
Carrie, carrie, things they change my friend
carrie, carrie, maybe we'll meet again
Carrie, carrie, things they change my friend
carrie, carrie, maybe we'll meet again somewhere again
When lights go down

Hope there's someone - Antony and The Johnsons


Who'll take care of me
When I die, will I go
 
Hope there's someone
Who'll set my heart free
Nice to hold when I'm tired

There's a ghost on the horizon
When I go to bed
How can I fall asleep at night
How will I rest my head
 
Oh I'm scared of the middle place
Between light and nowhere
I don't want to be the one
Left in there, left in there
There's a man on the horizon
Wish that I'd go to bed
If I fall to his feet tonight
Will allow rest my head
 
So here's hoping I will not drown
Or paralyze in light
And godsend I don't want to go
To the seal's watershed

Hope there's someone
Who'll take care of me
When I die, Will I go

Hope there's someone
Who'll set my heart free
Nice to hold when I'm tired
 

Crazy - Aerosmith

I go crazy, crazy, baby, I go crazy
You turn it on

Crazy, crazy, crazy, for you baby
What can I do, honey

Hay una delgada línea entre el genio y la locura. 
He borrado esa línea.
