Diana Krall.- Look of Love



"The Look Of Love"

The look of love is in your eyes
A look your smile can't disguise
The look of love is saying so much more than just words could ever say
And what my heart has heard, well it takes my breath away

I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you, now that I have found you

You've got the
Look of love, it's on your face
A look that time can't erase
Be mine tonight, let this be just the start of so many nights like this
Let's take a lover's vow and then seal it with a kiss

I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you, now that I have found you
Don't ever go
Don't ever go
I love you so"

Madeleine Peyroux - Between the Bars


"Between de Bars" llegó como una recomendación de "C.C.", una vieja amiga que prefiere el anónimato.

La canción en cierto sentido se emparenta con esa que decía "Amigos traigan cerveza...", o con "sírvame la copa rota..." pero con más posibilidades estéticas y semánticas: la implícita alusión a la ternura, a la fragilidad y a la vez, a la frialdad y dureza del conjunto, como una oposición entre un individuo solitario (Drink up, baby/Stay up all nighty...Drink up, baby/ Look at the stars./And I'll kiss you again...) y la suma de todos ellos (People you've been before /That you don't want around anymore)




Drink up, baby
Stay up all night
Things you could do
You won't but you might

The potential you'll be
You'll never see
Promises you'll only make
Drink up with me now
And forget all about
Pressure of days
Do what I say
And I'll make you okay
And drive them away
Images stuck in your head

People you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still

Drink up, baby
Look at the stars.
And I'll kiss you again
Between the bars
Where I'm seeing you there
With your hands in the air
Waiting to finally be caught

Drink up one more time
And I'll make you mine
And keep you apart
Deep in my heart
Separate from the rest
Where I like you the best
Keep the things you forgot

The people you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still

Katie Melua: I Think It's Going to Rain



Ketevan "Katie" Melua (ქეთი მელუა)
Fecha de nacimiento: 16 de septiembre de 1984
Lugar: Kutaisi - Georgia
Nacionalidad: Británica desde agosto del 2005.




"I Think It's Going To Rain Today"

Broken windows and empty hallways
A pale dead moon in the sky streaked with gray
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today

Scarecrows dressed in the latest styles
With frozen smiles to chase love away
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today

Lonely, lonely
Tin can at my feet
Think I'll kick it down the street
That's the way to treat a friend

Bright before me the signs implore me
To help the needy and show them the way
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today

Madeleine Peyroux - I am all right

Madeleine Peyroux nació en los Estados Unidos en el año 1973, igual que el autor de este blog, la gran diferencia es que mientras que yo trataba de salir salir de la facultad de Derecho, ella lanzaba su primer disco (Dreamland - 1996).

En "Im all right", Madeleine Peyroux imprime ese tono de esperanza y de amor a la vida, pero no a la vida como un ideal platónico o de postal de día de la madre, sino a la vida de todos los días, imperfecta y al mismo tiempo espectante.

De modo que... I'm all right I've been lonely before...

I'M ALL RIGHT









He made me laugh
He made me cry
He smoked his stogies in bed
But I'm all right
I'm all right
I've been lonely before
I asked the boy for a
few kind words
He gave me a novel instead
But I'm all right
I'm all right
I've been lonely before
It's fine, it's OK
It was wrong either way
I just wanted to say
There isn't much fun
when you're drinking
for one
He got drunk, he fell down
He threw a few of my
things around
But I'm all right
I'm all right
I've been lonely before

I'd like to believe
healthy cigarettes
But I have to conceive
that wherever you are
You're still driving my car
Sticks and stones break my bones
But tears don't leave any scars
So I'm all alright
I'm all alright
I've been lonely before

Mmm...
I'm all alright
I'm all alright
I'm all alright
Yeah
He played solitaire in bed
Used to blow bubbles in bed
He sang christmas song in bed
