There is a light that never goes out - The Smiths

Los que me seguís en twitter habreis visto que el otro día puse un link al video de esta canción, pero @Likechinasky me la acaba de recordar y he pensado que esta pedazo canción tenía que tener su momento en mi blog. Así que, ahí os dejo una de las mejores canciones de la historia:


Take me out tonight
Where there's music and there's people
Who are young and alive

Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one anymore


Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people
And I want to see life
Driving in your car
Oh please don't drop me home
Because it's not my home, it's their home
And I'm welcome no more

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die

And if a ten ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well the pleasure, the privilege is mine


Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care

And in the darkened underpass
I thought Oh God, my chance has come at last
But then a strange fear gripped me
And I just couldn't ask

Take me out tonight
Oh take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one
No, I haven't got one

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes in to us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well the pleasure, the privilege is mine

There is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out

Dust Bowl Dance - Mumford and Sons

De nuevo vengo con otra canción de los Mumford and Sons. Es algo bélica, pero habla de superar las adversidades y mantenerte fiel a tus principios e ideas (o eso pienso yo xD)... Me encanta!


The young man stands on the edge of his porch
The days were short and the father was gone
There was no one in the town and no one in the field
This dusty barren land had given all it could yield

I've been kicked off my land at the age of sixteen
And I have no idea where else my heart could have been
I placed all my trust at the foot of this hill
And now I am sure my heart can never be still
So collect your courage and collect your horse
And pray you never feel this same kind of remorse

Seal my heart and brake my pride
I've nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide
Align my heart, my body, my mind
To face what I've done and do my time

Well you are my accuser, now look in my face
Your opression reeks of your greed and disgrace
So one man has and another has not
How can you love what it is you have got
When you took it all from the weak hands of the poor?
Liars and thieves you know not what is in store

There will come a time I will look in your eye
You will pray to the God that you always denied
The I'll go out back and I'll get my gun
I'll say, "You haven't met me, I am the only son"

Seal my heart and brake my pride
I've nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide
Align my heart, my body, my mind
To face what I've done and do my time

Well yes sir, yes sir, yes it was me
I know what I've done, cause I know what I've seen
I went out back and I got my gun
I said, "You haven't met me, I am the only son"

I Remember - Damien Rice

Esta canción es una de las canciones más bonitas que existen (en mi opinión). Sobretodo el principio cantado por Lisa Hanigan... Y es que señoras y señores, si no conocéis a Damien Rice ya estáis tardando! Es un artistazo (es otro de esos a los que quiero ver al menos una vez en la vida).

Estos últimos días ha sido de lo que más he escuchado mientras estudiaba y he pensado que ya iba siendo hora de que pusiera alguna canción suya en el blog. Ya me diréis qué os parece...

Os dejo un vídeo de un concierto que hicieron para la BBC (supongo que sería de los últimos, pues que yo sepa Lisa dejó el "grupo").


I remember it well
The first time that I saw
Your head around the door
'Cause mine stopped working


I remember it well
There was wet in your hair
I was stood in stare
And time stopped moving


I want you here tonight
I want you here
'Cause I can't believe what I found

I want you here tonight want you here
'Cause nothing is taking me down, down, down...

I remember it well
Taxied out of a storm
To watch you perform
And my ships were sailing

I remember it well
I was stood in your line
And your mouth, your mouth, your mind...

I want you here tonight
I want you here
'Cause I can't believe what I found
I want you here tonight want you here
Nothing is taking me down, down, down...

Except you my love. Except you my love...

Come all ye lost
Dive into moss
I hope that my sanity covers the cost
To remove the stain of my love
In paper mache

Come all ye reborn
Blow off my horn
I'm driving real hard
This isn't love, this is porn
God will forgive me
But I, I whip myself with scorn, scorn

I wanna hear what you have to say about me
Hear if you're gonna live without me
I wanna hear what you want

I remember December
And I wanna hear what you have to say about me
Hear if you're gonna live without me
I wanna hear what you want
What the hell do you want?

The Cave - Mumford and Sons

Estos últimos días los chicos de Mumford and Sons han sidos mis acompañantes musicales, y como aun no había subido ninguna canción suya al blog, he pensado que ya iba siendo hora. Había pensado empezar con Little Lion Man, que es la canción con la que les descubrí, pero mientras miraba su página de youtube (Mumford and Sons) he visto este vídeo y no he podido no ponerlo...


It's empty in the valley of your heart
The sun, it rises slowly as you walk
Away from all the fears
And all the faults you've left behind


The harvest left no food for you to eat
You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see
But I have seen the same
I know the shame in your defeat

But I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck


And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways

I'll know my name as it's called again

Cause I have other things to fill my time
You take what is yours and I'll take mine
Now let me at the truth
Which will refresh my broken mind

So tie me to a post and block my ears
I can see widows and orphans through my tears
I know my call despite my faults
And despite my growing fears

But I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again

So come out of your cave walking on your hands
And see the world hanging upside down
You can understand dependence
When you know the maker's land

So make your siren's call
And sing all you want
I will not hear what you have to say

Cause I need freedom now
And I need to know how
To live my life as it's meant to be

And I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again


Como es habitual, también os dejo el vídeo oficial de la canción (que también es original):
