JUEVES - LYRICS ("She’s So High – Tal Bachman")

- She’s So High – Tal Bachman
 
She's blood, flesh and bone
No tucks or silicone
She's touch, smell, sight, taste, and sound
But somehow I can't believe
That anything should happen
I know where I belong
And nothing's going to happen, yeah
 
'Cause she's so high
High above me
She's so lovely
She's so high
Like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, or Aphrodite
Da da-da da da
She's so high
High above me
 
First class and fancy free
She's high society
She's got the best of everything
What could a guy like me
Ever really offer?
She's perfect as she can be
Why should I even bother?
 
'Cause she's so high
High above me
She's so lovely
She's so high
Like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, or Aphrodite
Da da-da da da
She's so high
High above me
 
She calls to speak to me
I freeze immediately
'Cause what she says sounds so unreal
'Cause somehow I can't believe
That anything should happen
I know where I belong
And nothing's going to happen, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
 
'Cause she's so high
High above me
She's so lovely
She's so high
Like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, or Aphrodite, oh yeah
She's so high
High above me

Sobre la letra, se basa en un hecho real que se retrotrae a su época de estudiante de bachillerato, cuando intentó convencer a una chica de que saliera con su hermanastro. Afirma que hablando con dicha chica se sintió intimidado, usándola como inspiración para esta canción.

JUEVES - LYRICS ("Scar Tissue – Red Hot Chilly Peppers")

- Scar Tissue – Red Hot Chilly Peppers
 
Scar tissue that I wish you saw
Sarcastic mister know-it-all
Close your eyes and I'll kiss you
'Cause with the birds I'll share
 
With the birds, I'll share this lonely viewin'
With the birds, I'll share this lonely viewin'
 
Ah, push me up against the wall
Young Kentucky girl in a push-up bra
Ah, fallin' all over myself
To lick your heart and taste your health, 'cause
 
With the birds (Share this lone—), I'll share this lonely viewin'
With the birds (Share this lone—), I'll share this lonely viewin'
With the birds (Share this lone—), I'll share this lonely view
 
Blood loss in a bathroom stall
A southern girl with a scarlet drawl
I wave good-bye to Ma and Pa
'Cause with the birds I'll share
 
With the birds (Share this lonely), I'll share this lonely viewin'
With the birds (Share this lonely), I'll share this lonely viewin'
 
Soft-spoken with a broken jaw
Step outside but not to brawl and
Autumn's sweet, we call it fall
I'll make it to the moon if I have to crawl and
 
(I will share this lonely)
With the birds, I'll share this lonely viewin'
(I will share this lonely)
With the birds, I'll share this lonely viewin'
(I will share this lonely)
With the birds, I'll share this lonely view
 
Scar tissue that I wish you saw
Sarcastic mister know-it-all
Close your eyes and I'll kiss you
'Cause with the birds I'll share
 
(I will share this lonely)
With the birds, I'll share this lonely viewin'
(I will share this lonely)
With the birds, I'll share this lonely viewin'
(I will share this lonely)
With the birds, I'll share this lonely view
 
- Notas: La canción trata sobre el mundo de las adicciones, sean drogas o alcohol. El “scar tissue” del título hace referencia a esas cicatrices o marcas que dejan el consumo de estas sustancias y que son imposibles de esconder. En los momentos de claridad entre episodios de adicción, el adicto siente esa soledad de la que se habla en el estribillo, ese momento de enfrentarse en solitario a la realidad de la adicción de la que se es prisionero.
- 1. “…Scar tissue…” = Es el tejido que queda en una cicatriz y que revela un daño producido hace ya tiempo.
- 2. “…mister know-it-all…” = Es el modo de indicar que una persona es un sabelotodo tipo cuñao de bar.
- 3. “…push-up bra…” = Son los famosos sujetadores “wonderbra” que empujan hacia arriba los pechos para hacer que abulten más.
- 4. “…drawl…” = Este “drawl” puede referirse a un fuerte acento local a la hora de hablar.
- 5. “…brawl …” = “Armar jaleo” o “buscar pelea”, siempre se usa para indicar el andar buscando problemas y agresividad física.
- 6. “…crawl…” = Es el modo de moverse arrastrándose por el suelo, propio de animales, de niños que gatean y de borrachos que no pueden tenerse en pie.

JUEVES - LYRICS ("Nothing Really Matters - Madonna")

- Nothing Really Matters - Madonna
 
When I was very young
Nothing really mattered to me
But making myself happy
I was the only one
 
Now that I am grown
Everything's changed
I'll never be the same
Because of you
 
Nothing really matters
Love is all we need
Everything I give you
All comes back to me
 
Looking at my life
It's very clear to me
I lived so selfishly
I was the only one
 
I realize
That nobody wins
Something is ending
And something begins
 
Nothing really matters
Love is all we need
Everything I give you
All comes back to
 
Nothing really matters
Love is all we need
Everything I give you
All comes back to me
 
Nothing takes the past away
Like the future
Nothing makes the darkness go
Like the light
 
You're shelter from the storm
Give me comfort in your arms
 
Nothing really matters
Love is all we need
Everything I give you
All comes back to me
 
Nothing really matters
Love is all we need
Everything I give you
All comes back to me
 
Nothing really matters
Love is all we need...
 
- Notas: Esta canción se inspira en la vida real de Madonna. Cuando la compuso, su hija Lourdes tenía ya dos años de edad, y la maternidad le había hecho darse cuenta de que era el momento de dejar de vivir para si misma porque su hija dependía de ella. Madonna, que perdió a su madre a los 6 años, descubre ese rol de madre, y todo lo que ello conlleva, como no poder abandonarse en caso de fracaso.
- 1. “…selfishly…” = “Egoístamente”, esa forma de vivir en la que uno solo piensa en sí mismo.

JUEVES - LYRICS ("Kiss - Vengaboys")

- Kiss - Vengaboys
 
Every Friday
My head's spinnin' round and round
Been workin' all week now, baby
Yes it's my day
I take a trip downtown
To my favorite club now, baby
 
That's when I see you
With loving arms to fall into
But I'm not looking for full time love
There's still so much I wanna do
 
I only kiss kiss kiss when the sun don't shine
Oh Ohoh! Oh Ohoh!
You wanna kiss kiss kiss then tonight is fine
Oh Ohoh! Oh Ohoh!
 
Can live without it
I don't want a full-time love
Cause it's not on my mind now baby
You know my freedom
Is what I'm thinking of
And I ain't got the time now baby
 
Straight out of the blue
You came and asked me to
Be your date in the daytime babe
But I'm sorry no can do
 
I only kiss kiss kiss when the sun don't shine
Oh Ohoh! Oh Ohoh!
You wanna kiss kiss kiss then tonight is fine
Oh Ohoh! Oh Ohoh! (x3)
 
- Notas: La canción se centra en una mujer que se pasa toda la semana trabajando y que encuentra en el fin de semana la oportunidad de vivir una vida libre de obligaciones. Es por ello que repite que lo que busca es vivir las experiencias, especialmente las de tipo romántico, pero sin aceptar una relación sólida que la ate y le impida vivir esas cosas que siente que le quedan por vivir.
- 1. “…downtown…” = Es el modo de referirse al “casco antiguo” de las ciudades, o el centro de la ciudad, donde por lo general se ubican los bares de copas, etc.
- 2. “…out of the blue…” = Esta expresión se usa para indicar que algo aparece de la nada, de modo inesperado.

JUEVES - LYRICS ("I Try – Macy Gray")

- I Try – Macy Gray
 
Games, changes, and fears
When will they go from here?
When will they stop?
I believe that fate has brought us here
And we should be together, babe
But we're not
 
I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
I'll keep my cool, but I'm fiendin
 
I try to say goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
Goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
 
I may appear to be free
But I'm just a prisoner of your love
I may seem alright and smile when you leave
But my smiles are just a front, just a front
 
I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
I'll keep my cool, but I'm fiendin
 
I try to say goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
Goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
 
Here is my confession
May I be your possession
Boy, I need your touch
Your love kisses, and such
With all my might I try
But this I can't deny, deny
 
I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
I'll keep my cool, but I'm fiendin
 
I try to say goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
Goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
 
Goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
 
- Notas: Es una canción basada en hechos reales, en la vida de la cantante, que estuvo casada con un hombre con el que tuvo varios hijos, pero cuya relación se acabó justo poco antes de que la cantante saltara a la fama.

- 1. “…fate…” = Es el destino, lo que el destino nos aguarda, nos guste o no.
- 2. “…play it off…” = “Play off” se usa para hablar de desempatar, que en cierto modo es lo que la cantante pretende, romper esa situación de equilibrio que le hace tan difícil tomar la decisión correcta y separarse de los recuerdos que le unen a él.
- 3. “…keep my cool…” = Es una forma coloquial de indicar el mantener la calma en una situación difícil que nos pone nerviosos.
- 4. “…fiendin…” = Es una forma slang de indicar “desear algo con muchas ganas”, y es lo que le pasa a la cantante al pensar en su antigua pareja, que desea volver a tenerlo cerca, aun sabiendo que no es posible.

JUEVES - LYRICS ("I Saved The World - Eurythmics")

- I Saved The World - Eurythmics
 
Monday finds you like a bomb
It's been left ticking there too long
You're bleeding
Some days there's nothing left to learn
From the point of no return
You're leaving
 
Hey, hey, I saved the world today
Everybody's happy now
The bad thing's gone away
And everybody's happy now
The good thing's here to stay
Please let it stay
 
There's a million mouths to feed
But I've got everything I need
I'm breathing
And there's a hurting thing inside
But I've got everything to hide
I'm grieving
 
Hey, hey, I saved the world today
And everybody's happy now
The bad thing's gone away
And everybody's happy now
The good thing's here to stay
Please let it stay
Let it stay, let it stay
 
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, the good thing
 
Hey, hey, I saved the world today
And everybody's happy now
The bad thing's gone away
And everybody's happy now
The good thing's here to stay
Please let it stay
 
Hey, hey, I saved the world today
And everybody's happy now
And everybody's happy now
The bad thing's gone away
Everybody's happy now (So happy now)
And everybody's happy now
The good thing's here to stay
Please let it, ooh, let it
 
- Notas: La canción habla sobre los problemas habituales que hay en la vida de todas las personas y que pueden aplastarnos a menos que nos tomemos un descanso de vez en cuando. La canción habla de alegrarse por esas pequeñas victorias del día a día, que para otros pueden no ser nada, pero que para nosotros son como haber salvado al mundo, y usar esas alegrías como trampolín para seguir adelante.
- 1. “…ticking …” = Este es el ruido que hacen las bombas de relojería (o los despertadores cuando eran mecánicos), y que indican que el tiempo se nos agota y nos pueda explotar en las manos.

JUEVES - LYRICS ("I Need To Know – Mark Anthony")

- I Need To Know – Mark Anthony
 
They say around the way you've asked for me
There's even talk about you wanting me
I must admit that's what I want to hear
But that's just talk until you take me there, oh
 
If it's true don't leave me all alone out here
Wondering if you're ever gonna take me there
Tell me what you're feeling 'cause I need to know
Girl you've gotta let me know which way to go
 
'Cause I need to know, I need to know
Tell me baby girl 'cause I need to know
I need to know, I need to know
Tell me baby girl 'cause I need to know
 
My every thought is of this being true
It's getting harder not to think of you
Girl I'm exactly where I wanna be
The only things I need you here with me, oh
 
If it's true don't leave me all alone out here
Wondering if you're ever gonna take me there
Tell me what you're feeling 'cause I need to know
Girl you've gotta let me know which way to go
 
'Cause I need to know, I need to know
Tell me baby girl 'cause I need to know
I need to know, I need to know
Tell me baby girl 'cause I need to know
 
'Cause I need to know, I need to know
Tell me baby girl 'cause I need to know
 
If it's true don't leave me all alone out here
Wondering if you're ever gonna take me there
Tell me what you're feeling 'cause I need to know
Girl you've gotta let me know which way to go
 
'Cause I need to know, I need to know
Tell me baby girl 'cause I need to know
I need to know, I need to know
Tell me baby girl 'cause I need to know
 
If it's true don't leave me all alone out here
Wondering if you're ever gonna take me there
Tell me what you're feeling 'cause I need to know
Girl you've gotta let me know which way to go
 
'Cause I need to know, I need to know
Tell me baby girl 'cause I need to know
I need to know, I need to know
Tell me baby girl 'cause I need to know
 
- Notas: Otra canción de amor, que, en este caso, nos sitúa en la piel de un hombre enamorado de una mujer, y que necesita saber si se trata de un sentimiento correspondido o no. Según parece, la gente rumorea que ella está interesada por él, eso ha llegado a sus oídos, y es lo que desata esa necesidad de aclarar la situación.

(Come on, come on, uh, yeah)
Oh-ooh, whoa-oh (Come on, come on, uh)
 
I feel like I've been locked up tight
For a century of lonely nights
Waiting for someone to release me
You're lickin' your lips and blowin' kisses my way

Gotta like what you do

You gotta rub me the right way, honey
I'm a genie in a bottle, baby
Come, come, come on and let me out
 
The music's bangin' and the lights down low
Just one more dance and then we're good to go
Waiting for someone who needs me
Hormones racin' at the speed of light
But that don't mean it's gotta be tonight (Yeah)
Baby, baby, baby (Baby, baby, baby)
 
Oh (My body's sayin', "Let's go")
Oh, ooh (Mm, but my heart is sayin' no, but my heart is sayin', "No, no")

- Notas: Es una canción con claros tintes sexuales, habla de una mujer dispuesta a ofrecerse a un hombre, pero no a cualquiera, sino a aquel que cumpla con sus requisitos. Es una entrega total, pero cargada de exigencias. En el fondo es una advertencia de que no va a ponérselo fácil a nadie por muy dispuesta que esté a ofrecerse.
- 1. “…locked up…” = El verbo “to lock up” se usa para indicar el guardar algo bajo llave, o encerrar algo o a alguien. En este caso es la cantante la que ha estado cerrada a los hombres durante algún tiempo.
- 2. “…give it away…” = “To give (something) away” es dar algo gratis, sin pedir nada a cambio, como si ese algo no tuviera ningún valor. En este sentido es la cantante diciendo que no va a entregarse porque sí, sino que será solo a alguien especial.
