No hace mucho vi en la tele la película de Star Trek y en el principio, cuando sale un chico manejando una carro que terminando volando por un abismo, suena una canción que me encantó. El tema Sabotage, de la banda Beastie Boys.
Sabotage
I can't stand it i know you planned it
But i'm gonna set it straight, this watergate
I can't stand rockin' when i'm in here
Because your crystal ball ain't so crystal clear
So while you sit back and wonder why
I got this fuckin' thorn in my sideo
H my, it's a mirage
I'm tellin' y'all it's sabotage
So listen up 'cause you can't say nothin'
You'll shut me down with a push of your button?
But i'm out, and i'm gone
I'll tell you now i keep it on and on
'cause what you see you might not get
And we can't bet so don't you get souped yet
You're schmeing on a thing that's a mirage
I'm trying to tell you now it's sabotage
Why; our backs are now against the wall
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage
I can't stand it, i know you planned it
But i'm gonna set it straight this watergate
I can't stand rockin' when i'm in this place
Because I feel disgrace because you're all in my face
Bueno no por falta de ideas comenzaré a montar canciones normales y dejaré en pausa el proyecto de los covers por ahora. Comenzaré con una pieza perteneciente a Rosssini, que me llegó por email en estos días y la tengo super pegadísima, aparte de que es graciosa.
Tracy Chapman es una compositora estadounidense, ganadora 4 veces del Grammy y de discos platino. La canciçon Fast Car pertenece al çalbum que lleva el mismo nombre de la cantante, del año 1988. La versiçon de hoy es realizada por el grupo estadounidense Vertical Horizon.
Para quienes no lo conozcan, Playing for Change (canal de youtube del proyecto aqui) es un proyecto musical y una fundación, ambos creados por iniciativa de Mark Johnson con el objetivo de reunir, grabar y filmar músicos de diferentes culturas. Comenzó en el año 2005. La fundación se dedica a abrir escuela de música en todo el planeta. Hasta la fecha llevan 7 escuelas abiertas entre Nepal, África, entre otros. La canción que cuelgo hoy es original de Ben E. King, cantante estadounidense de sol y pop y salió en el año 1974.
Stand By Me
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
Este tema es el favorito de mi hijo pequeño. Este cover que publico hoy pertenece a un concierto completo tributo a Freddie Mercury. Destaco que aunque Elton Jhon y Axl son artistas excelentes, a mi criterio ninguno le llega a los talones a Freddie, pero me parece una buena versión (aunque a Elton le falta como fuerza).
Bohemian Rhapsody
Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landside,
No escape from reality
Open your eyes,
Look up to the skies and see,
I'm just a poor boy,
I need no sympathy,
Because I'm easy come, easy go,
Little high, little low,
Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to
me, to me
Mamaaa,
Just killed a man,
Put a gun against his head, pulled my trigger,
now he's dead
Mamaaa, life had just begun,
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
Mama, oooh,
Didn't mean to make you cry,
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow,
Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters
Too late, my time has come,
Sends shivers down my spine, body's aching all
the time
Goodbye, everybody, I've got to go,
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, oooh
I don't want to die,
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all.
I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Scaramouch, Scaramouch, will you do the Fandango!
Thunderbolts and lightning, very, very frightening me
Galileo, Galileo
Galileo, Galileo
Galileo, Figaro - magnificoo
I'm just a poor boy nobody loves me
He's just a poor boy from a poor family,
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
Easy come, easy go, will you let me go
Bismillah! No, we will not let you go
(Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go
(Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go
(Let me go) Will not let you go
(Let me go)(Never) Never let you go
(Let me go) (Never) let you go (Let me go) Ah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia, let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me,
for meee
So you think you can stop me and spit in my eye
So you think you can love me and leave me to die
Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby,
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here
Si, lo sé con MetallicA me pongo intensa, pero es que buscando el otro cover encontré este de la canción Fight Fire With Fire interpretada por Therion, la original pertenece al album Ride The Lightning (por cierto alguien se ha fijado que casi todas la canciones "balada" de MetallicA son la número 4 del disco como The Unforgiven, Fade To Black, The Unforgiven 2, Until it Sleeps).
Bueno de mi época de niña uno de mis grupos favoritos que escuchaba hasta el cansancio era ABBA. Esta canción pertenece originalmente a ellos, sin embargo la conocí del cover que publico hoy, Therion, banda que destaco es una de mis favoritas.
Esta canción pertenece al artista americanoChris Brown, junto con los raperos Lil Wayne and Busta Rhymes, salió como sencillo en Febrero del 2011. Esta versión la hace una chica llamada Karmin y la cuelgo porque me pareció curiosa la rapidez al "cantar" la canción aunque no me gusta la letra la cuelgo acá.
Look At My Know

I was like f-ck trial I puts it down
I’m so young money if you got eyes look at me now bitch
Esta canción es original de Gotye, músico belga-australiano (original aqui). Esta versión es interpretada por el grupo Walk off the Earth y me parece excelente puesto que es un cover con mucha coordinación y les quedó genial.
Somebody That I Used to Know
Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end, always the end
So, when we found that we could not make sense
Well, you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
No, you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need, that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
But I don't wanna live that way, reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
No, you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need, that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Somebody, I used to know
Somebody, now you're just somebody that I used to know
Somebody, I used to know
Somebody, now you're just somebody that I used to know
