Paolo Nutini Live - Time to Pretend (MGMT cover) @ Sziget 2012

Paolo Nutini covering one of the best songs ever. The lyrics have to published here, just because. 

And just because I don't want you to miss a line.

"Time To Pretend"

I'm Feelin rough I'm Feelin raw I'm in the prime of my life.
Let's make some music make some money find some models for wives.
I'll move to Paris, shoot some heroin and fuck with the stars.
You man the island and the cocaine and the elegant cars.

This is our decision to live fast and die young.
We've got the vision, now let's have some fun.
Yeah it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?

Forget about our mothers and our friends.
We were fated to pretend.

I'll miss the playgrounds and the animals and digging up worms.
I'll miss the comfort of my mother and the weight of the world.
I'll miss my sister, miss my father, miss my dog and my home.
Yeah I'll miss the boredom and the freedom and the time spent alone.

But there is really nothing, nothing we can do.
Love must be forgotten. Life can always start up anew.
The models will have children, we'll get a divorce,
We'll find some more models, Everything must run its course.

We'll choke on our vomit and that will be the end.
We were fated to pretend.

Yeah yeah yeah

The electric guitar no.1 is dancing with the electric guitar no.2. They set the soul for this song.

O melhor Brandon Flowers está aqui. O que ele evoluiu.

Interpretation is the key.

Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness - Cecilia And The Satellite

This song beats as fast as my heart. A normal resting heart rate  for adults ranges from 60 to 100 BPMs. This song is closer to the high-end range. That means that my heart is beating faster than usual.

This is what I call a beautiful song.

1st track of the 2nd studio album of #THENBHD

This is the first track of the latest album of #THENBHD. I can only say that this intro is awesome. They were a bit lazy, though. They were late for work. When you have nothing to say just shut the fuck up. Did it work out? Yes, they were wiped out (title of the album).


Such a powerful statement. Was it carefully thought? I don't know. Do I want to know? No, I don't.

Little boy

Let's put things in perspective.

Let's put it all together.

Come on, little boy!

You've brought so much joy to the lives of many.

You've brought so much joy into the world.
You've brought so much hope to humanity.

What now?

What have they done to you? What's happening?

Life has been rough to you, my dear. But now it's time to move on.

Everything's gonna be fine!😊

The doctors will bring you back to life. You yourself will struggle for it.  You are almost there. Your mind will be reset. Your vital signs will be ok.

Then, we can grow up, can't we?

Stay with me, sweetheart.

They don't understand. Some do, eventually.

I miss you so much. You were loved like no one. We are so proud of your past self.

Future yourself. Humanity needs you. Make the check-in. You're late. They are already boarding. Don't miss the plane. Last call was already voiced through the PA. 

Run for your life. Contribute to humanity. You deserve it and so does the world.

May we dream again?

Tears will dry. That hidden suffering is past. That link between physical and mental health will be restored. AG is inside. Like the stickers on the laptops.

I need you. You need me. He needs you. She needs you. We need you. They need you.

Greetings,
<> Your future-self.<>

COIN - Talk Too Much

Be a human

Be a human. Be a human. Be a human.

2'02'' sumariza tudo.

<

"Run" is a post-Britpop power ballad, composed using common time in the key of C major, with a tempo of 72 beats per minute. It is written in the common verse–chorus form, and its chord progression goes Am–Fmaj7/A–Gsus4, it repeats once, and later it changes to Am–F6/C–Gsus4, which also repeats one time, and then the sequence restarts. Lightbody's vocal range performs from A3 to F5, and the song features bass guitar, cello, drums, guitars, viola and violins as its musical instruments. Adrienne Day wrote for Spin that "Run" includes "guitar riffs”,  whilst Joe Bosso described the song as "dark and moody". 

A reviewer for Contactmusic.com commented about "Run". In its introduction includes a "trembling guitar", Lightbody's vocals as "velvet soft", and its refrain as "stirring stuff". Irish writer Peter Murphy called it a "strange hybrid", explaining it is "a lighter-waving anthem drenched in private grieving". Kevin Forest Moreau considered "Run" to has "plaintive lyrics, rigorous strumming, sweeping strings and a hook that yanks without reservation for the heartstrings of adolescent girls everywhere.” Claire Simpson described it as an "angst-ridden guitar ballad".

Tove lo - Influence (Live)

you're playing it dirty, Tove Lo. Não sei se o destaque que está a ter neste blog é merecido. But she does it well.

2nd song posted. Same set. Same stage.

I saved you a google search:

Relationships:
We have no records of past relationships for Tove Lo.

Keep it private until you can. Way to go. 

Este é um tema recorrente na Tove Lo. Mais aqui . Mal posso esperar ver o Daily Mail ou o site que cobre a zona das 30 milhas de CA a associar a TL com rehab. Por falar nisso, Selena Gomez surpreendeu-me pela positiva nos AMAs. Grande lição. E era aqui que queria chegar. Quero conhecer os outros turn-on's da TL. Will I still love you when you're no longer young and beautiful?

James - Laid (Version 3)

No ano de 2009 viajei para Londres, via aeroporto de Gatwick, no mesmo avião em que seguia o Sr. que canta isto. Garanto que eu não sabia quem ele era, só sabia que ele era alguém famoso porque muita gente se aproximava dele e pedia autógrafos.

Lembro-me que quando cheguei a Londres me sentei no banco de trás do autocarro que fazia o transbordo para o terminal. Afinal eu ia sozinho. Depois sentaram-se mais pessoas ao pé de mim. Uma delas era o tal senhor famoso e os restantes membros da banda que o acompanhavam. Começaram a falar entre eles e depois lá consegui perceber quem eles eram. Estavam em fase decadente da carreira e tinham ido tocar a Cantanhede.

Voltei a ouvi-los hoje numa estação de rádio dos EUA com K call-sign.

Faith in humanity?

Where are we going as human beings?
Is faith in humanity lost?

Eu:
-hey Siri, do you have faith in humanity?
Siri:
-Interesting question, André.

Faith in humanity.
Lost. Checking it out. Not Found.
Try again. Cannot find it. Reloading. Restored.

No dia a seguir.
Living. Watching the news.
Faith in humanity? Reset. Hard reset. There is a problem. Cannot be restored.

Homelessness is not a choice. Ninguém escolhe um destino cruel.

What would you do?

A child has grown up. Too early.

At the end, everyone around recognizes his genius, except him.

Do álbum OK Computer, saem letras escritas pelo código da vida. Hard to understand by others, apenas descodificadas pelo código que há em cada um de nós. Escritas de forma complexa, propositadamente. Letras percebidas de forma empática por uns e pela forma mais dura por outros.

Code of life has written and explained the science of love.

Lots of Love, impossível não gostar de ti. É impossível não gostar porque o amor é uma ciência, and as a lecture of quantum physics, it is fucking hard to understand. So, we dislike it until we find its purpose and usefulness.

A ironia do destino, é que é uma pesquisa no google que explica esta letra a muita gente. Yes, the computer of your brain (the same that f*cks you up) has created the computer at your desk.

The 1975
The 1975

Estamos em 2016. Lançado em 2013. Respect.

"The official music video for "Girls" was released on 23 October 2013. It follows the video for "Sex", which changed the art style of the band's music videos that were originally monochrome. Rather than reverting to the black-and-white style, the band decided to continue making music videos in color. Speaking about the music video, lead singer and guitarist Matt Healy said:

When we released our last video ['Sex'], people really reacted to the fact that it was in colour. There was a lot of conjecture and talk surrounding it - due to the fact that it was an unexpected stylistic change. It was brought to our attention that certain people thought we were 'conforming to a record company's wishes' along with other expected and unexpected clichés. Obviously this couldn't be further from the truth, we are lucky enough to be surrounded by a group of individuals whose mantra centres on facilitating our creative wishes, we found the whole idea of us being told what to do fascinating. The story of the band who suffer at the hands of a record label shortly after a delirious rise is a tale as old as time. So we kinda wanted to make a tongue-in-cheek video about it. Twinned with our love of '80s pop, its innocence, grandiosity and conceptual ideas in music videos – we wanted to make a video about a record label's attempt at enforced conformity. We got our mate Adam down to a studio in Los Angeles at the start of our USA tour, got four models and made a video about us not wanting to make a video."

Fast Forward to 55'00''. Play it. Goste-se ou não.

O poder da música enquanto arte WTF! é inegável. O sotaque do  D. Guetta no meio disto tudo é o que menos importa. Tudo passa a ser tolerável. Fire away.

A música transforma-se em química . Os químicos ganham fórmula C₁₁H₁₅NO₂ musical.

#ELI5 # A admiração que eu tenho pelos editores de vídeo que no meio de tantos coisos, só focam good-looking people. Não é discriminação, é compaixão.

#Tu só vais para seres igual aos que aparecem nos vídeos, mas -spoiler alert- não vais ser como eles. É tudo uma encenação. Ou Marketing. Ou outra cena qualquer. Tu pagas para pretenderes. Quem recebe o dinheiro sabe bem quem tu és.

#O extraordinário é que continuamos a pagar. Até pagamos sem querer. Ou queremos sem pagar. That's the power of music. 

Feet don't fail me now

When you’re happy, you enjoy the music. When you’re sad, you understand the lyrics.

O embrulho de um pretérito 
pior-que-perfeito
numa canção.

A interpretação 
da 
natureza humana, numa simples música.

Burberry's Coat?

A música mainstream ensina-nos muita coisa, apesar de tudo.

A história que esta canção conta encontra semelhanças na vida de todos nós. Os destinatários da frase que escrevi anteriormente são precisamente aqueles que discordaram da mesma assim que a acabaram de ler. 

A realização do videoclip é muito bem conseguida.
