Falta tão pouco! E, ao mesmo tempo, falta-me tanto.
Bon Jovi "Bed Of Roses"
When you close your eyes Know I'll be thinking about you While my mistress she calls me To stand in her spotlight again Tonite I won't be alone But you know that don't Mean I'm not lonely I've got nothing to prove For it's you that I'd die to defend
I want to lay you down on a bed of roses For tonite I sleep on a bed on nails I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is And lay you down on bed of roses
Novo vídeo. Muito sinceramente, esperava algo melhor. Não me prende.
Bon Jovi "Whole Lot of Living"
Close the window draw the curtains You ain't the only one here hurtin' No one's right no one's wrong Lately there's a whole lot of leavin' goin' on
I close my eyes and picture your hand in mine I still hear your voice It takes me back to that time Where i could find a reason to be strong Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leaving goin' on
You tried and you got tired Those long half-written stories You held a fire Right under the snow
They don’t, they don’t How could they really know?, they don’t They don’t know how it really feels They’re just here on holidays Like dummies filling landscapes How could they see you cry Do you remember me? I was the one that held you through I held the spotlight when you did that crazy dance I danced with you, I felt like superstars do Me and you We're just like superstars

E quando já não aguentava ouvir o "Someone that cannot love" (que até é engraçado... nas primeiras quinhentas mil vezes que se ouve) eis que surge esta obra de arte :)
David Fonseca "The 80's"
tonight i'm drinking myself sober 'till i see what i want to see a few more drinks and you will be the perfect lover you will be the one that i truly believe
that is right my dreams will come true tonight come with me set me free we'll be allright
i should have met you in the 80's back when i was the dance floor queen maybe you think that i'm too old for dancing you should have met me, i should have kissed you
Uma das minhas músicas preferidas de todos os tempos, ao vivo num concerto que eu daria tudo para poder assistir (quero uma máquina do tempo, aquele concerto AGORA!). De olhos fechados para sonhar, de olhos abertos para deixar cair as lágrimas de saudade das horas, dias que passei com o comando do leitor de VHS na mão a encantar-me com aquela voz, aquela guitarra, aqueles olhos azuis cintilantes, aquela emoção de milhares de vozes em coro... PLAY. TEARS. REWIND.
Bon Jovi "Always"
Now your pictures that you left behind Are just memories of a different life Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry One that made you have to say goodbye What Id give to run my fingers through your hair To touch your lips, to hold you near When you say your prayers try to understand Ive made mistakes, Im just a man
When he holds you close, when he pulls you near When he says the words youve been needing to hear Ill wish I was him cause those words are mine To say to you till the end of time
Yeah, I will love you baby - always And Ill be there forever and a day - always
Through the wind, through the snow, through the driving rain I'd crawl all the way home baby, baby, baby... To be back in your arms, just to taste your kiss Just to hear you say "baby, are you alright when I'm not there?"
De salientar que os lyrics em bold foram, segundo consta, inspiração de momento... *suspiro*
You don’t understand me now, I wonder if you ever will, I wonder if you’ll ever try. Don’t get sad about, All the strange thing I wrote, They faded as the ink dried…
So I say go, go, hold your fists high, Grow, slow, stand in for the fight, Though I hope you never have to. So I say run, run, sparkling light, Have your fun and then come home at night, I’m sure you’ll tell me something new, Yeah I can see the world through you.
finalmente o vídeo para um post decente. e parece que vamos ter concerto no final deste ano :)
Bryan Adams "I thought I'd seen everything"
i thought I’d seen everything - till i saw you i thought I’d been everywhere - till I’d been with you i thought that everyone knew what i knew i thought I’d seen everything - till i saw you
i like the way we are - like a raging fire burning up the night, burning with desire you’re such a sweet temptation - you know i can’t resist electricity, hey every time we kiss
It's a traffic jam when you're already late It's a no-smoking sign on your cigarette break It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife It's meeting the man of my dreams And then meeting his beautiful wife And isn't it ironic... don't you think A little too ironic... and yeah I really do think...
It's like rain on your wedding day It's a free ride when you've already paid It's the good advice that you just didn't take Who would've thought ... it figures
I had no choice but to hear you You stated your case time and again I thought about it
You treat me like I'm a princess * I'm not used to liking that You ask how my day was
You've already won me over in spite of me And don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are I couldn't help it It's all your fault
SO addictive. (O youtube anda a desiludir-me! Oh well, ficam a conhecer umas fotos giras da banda.)
Bon Jovi "Neurotica"
Angel flying solo Must have gone and sold your halo Shes accidental innocence And white trash elegance (alright) Shes all mixed up Lays in bed til 3 All messed up Shes eccentricity
Neurotica Lay your love all over me Come on, baby, go a little crazy on me Erotica Every school boys fantasy Not your ordinary woman But shes extraordinary to me
É VERGONHOSO não existir um vídeo que não seja apenas imagem estática e som desta música no youtube! Weeeeeeell, quem não tem youtube, caça com o imeem.
I bet you counted all the tears I bet you've cried I bet you swore you'd never let love back inside 'Cause it hurt you way too bad to say good-bye Now, there'll be times when I might put us to the test And it's hard for broken hearts to just forget But I'm driving blind, I'll lay it all on the line for you
If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do Tonite 's the night, I'm gonna prove it to you Do I have to break down, baby just to break through If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do If that's what it takes...
Foi das primeiras que ouvi desta voz de sonho. A única que sei a letra do início ao fim, que não me canso de ouvir repetidamente. E a expectativa aumenta de dia para dia.
Alejandro Sanz "Amiga mía"
Amiga mía, lo sé, solo vives por el, que lo sabe también, pero el no te ve como yo, suplicarle a mi boca que diga que me ha confesado entre copas, que es con tu piel con quien sueña de noche y que enloquece con cada botón que te desabrochas pensando en sus manos. el no te ha visto temblar, esperando una palabra, algún gesto un abrazo. el no te ve como yo suspirando, con los ojitos abiertos de par en par, escucharme nombrarle. ¡Ay amiga mía! Lo se y el también.
Das melodias mais inebriantes da promissora carreira do nosso menino. Para fechar o olhos, viajar, sonhar, sorrir, chorar.
David Fonseca "Haunted Home"
You shiver when the wind blows Through doors that lost their keys There's too little to rescue, too little to hang on to I thought that maybe we could try to Clear and rebuild this haunted home I'll be glad to help you just tell me what to do
Why don't you tell me what to do? Maybe you're scared too I've been here before Next thing you'll see You'll feel So small
Esta é a Alanis que me conquistou na adolescência. Alanis Morissette, para mim, é ISTO. Mái nada!
Alanis Morissette "You Oughta Know"
I want you to know, that I'm happy for you I wish nothing but the best for you both An older version of me Is she perverted like me Would she go down on you in a theatre Does she speak eloquently And would she have your baby I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother
Cause the love that you gave that we made wasn't able To make it enough for you to be open wide, no And every time you speak her name Does she know how you told me you'd hold me Until you died, till you died But you're still alive
Vou alargar o countdown às outras atracções, também merecem, e o blog não se torna num antro de perdição para os fãs de Bon Jovi, nem eu me entusiasmo demais e morro antes ainda do final de Maio. Por hoje, ando a descobrir Skank.
Skank "Balada do Amor Inabalável"
E' forca antiga do espírito virando convivência de amizade apaixonada Sonho, sexo, paixão Vontade gêmea de ficar e não pensar em nada Planejando pra fazer acontecer ou simplesmente refinando essa amizade Eu vou dizendo na sequência bem clichê eu preciso de você
Mesmo que a gente se separe por uns tempos ou quando você quiser lembrar de mim Toque a balada do amor inabalável swing de amor nesse planeta Mesmo que a gente se separe por uns tempos ou quando você quiser lembrar de mim Toque a balada seja antes ou depois, eterna Love Song de nós dois
Um tema mais recente, dos que adorava ver no Parque da Bela Vista mas não quero criar falsas expectativas. Bom era uma maratona de Bon Jovi, pelo menos 10 horinhas non-stop. Não me cansava.
Bon Jovi "Any Other Day"
On any other day, I might just stay in bed, Sink down in a sea of blankets, Pull them up over my head, Catch a beer buzz in the morning, Just to get a little edge, Then maybe just get up in time, To do it all again, Hey, I like where this is going, Yeah, cause I know where it's been,
On any other day I'd be blue eyes crying, I could tell the world that at least I'm trying, The clouds are breaking the sun is shining new, For me and you, On any other day I might just go crazy, The grace is knowing that your gonna save me, Maybe luck and love, will pull us through
Enquanto me preparava para o concerto no Coliseu encontrei esta versão deliciosa da minha favorita do último album do David Fonseca, Dreams in Colour. O looping não podia deixar de recordar o meu, também, querido David Ford e o seu State of the Union live in one take. Both amazing.
