Feliz 2010 = ) !

Hola People!! Por fin tengo un ratito de tranquilidad después de estos 20 días locos y felices :). Tras mi periplo de 10 días por Marruecos volví directamente a la isla de enfrente a pasar la Navidad con mis abuelos y no volví a Tenerife hasta ayer, para pasar el fin de año con mis amigos. La verdad es que tras estos 20 días he escuchado muchísima música con tanta horas de avión y Aeropuertos, así que empiezo el año con mucho material que ponerles. Hoy les dejo con un viejo conocido, "Iron & Wine" y una canción estupenda, "The Trapeze Swinger", perfecta para un día como hoy, en el que todo parece que va más lento de lo normal :). Espero que les guste ;-)

Un AbrazoO! Ah ! Y Feliz Año Nuevo !! :-)

Lyrics - Iron & Wine

Please, remember me
Happily
By the rosebush laughing
With bruises on my chin
The time when
We counted every black car passing
Your house beneath the hill
And up until
Someone caught us in the kitchen
With maps, a mountain range,
A piggy bank
A vision too removed to mention
But

Please, remember me
Fondly
I heard from someone you're still pretty
And then
They went on to say
That the pearly gates
Had some eloquent graffiti
Like 'We'll meet again'
And 'Fuck the man'
And 'Tell my mother not to worry'
And angels with their gray
Handshakes
Were always done in such a hurry
And

Please, remember me
At Halloween
Making fools of all the neighbors
Our faces painted white
By midnight
We'd forgotten one another
And when the morning came
I was ashamed
Only now it seems so silly
That season left the world
And then returned
And now you're lit up by the city
So

Please, remember me
Mistakenly
In the window of the tallest tower call
Then pass us by
But much too high
To see the empty road at happy hour
Leave and resonate
Just like the gates
Around the holy kingdom
With words like 'Lost and Found' and 'Don't Look Down'
And 'Someone Save Temptation'
And

Please, remember me
As in the dream
We had as rug-burned babies
Among the fallen trees
And fast asleep
Aside the lions and the ladies
That called you what you like
And even might
Give a gift for your behavior
A fleeting chance to see
A trapeze
Swing as high as any savior
But

Please, remember me
My misery
And how it lost me all I wanted
Those dogs that love the rain
And chasing trains
The colored birds above there running
In circles round the well
And where it spells
On the wall behind St. Peter's
So bright with cinder gray
And spray paint
'Who the hell can see forever?'
And

Please, remember me
Seldomly
In the car behind the carnival
My hand between your knees
You turn from me
And said 'The trapeze act was wonderful
But never meant to last'
The clown that passed
Saw me just come up with anger
When it filled with circus dogs
The parking lot
Had an element of danger
So

Please, remember me
Finally
And all my uphill clawing
My dear
But if i make
The pearly gates
Do my best to make a drawing
Of G-d and Lucifer
A boy and girl
An angel kissin on a sinner
A monkey and a man
A marching band
All around the frightened trapeze swingers

Hierro y Vino para el "Amor vigilante"

Ayer estaba hablando con un amigo de versiones de canciones no muy modernas y me recordó la versión acústica de "Love Vigilante" hecha por Iron & Wine. Este Norteamericano criado en Florida es uno de los mejores representantes de la música Lo-Fi & Folk en la actualidad. Sam Bean, que es su nombre real, compone, interpreta y graba todas sus canciones en un estudio casero para conseguir exactamente el sonido que él desea. En ese estudio propio grabó la versión de "Love Vigilante" del grupo "New Order" pasando de un estilo Rockero al más puro Folk que caracteriza a este cantautor Estadounidense.

Bueno gente espero que hoy pasen un Feliz Viernes y que disfruten el Fin de Semana ^_^ !!

Lyrics - New Order

Oh, I've just come from the land of the sun
From a war that must be won in the name of truth
With our soldiers so brave your freedom we will save
With our rifles and grenades and some help from God
I want to see my family
My wife and child are waiting for me
I've got to go home
I've been so alone, you see
You just can't believe the joy I did receive
When I finally got my leave and I was going home
Oh, I flew through the sky, my convictions could not lie
For my country I would die, and I will see it soon
When I walked through the door my wife she lay upon the floor
And with tears her eyes did soar, I did not know why
Then I looked into her hand and I saw the telegram
Said that I was a brave, brave man, but that I was dead
