Músicas encantadoras... mas algo desconhecidas ou esquecidas no tempo

Não desconhecido, mas eu adoro e tinha de incluir:
Jeff Buckley

Afinal, este tópico foi boa ideia!

Para quem gosta de sons a fazer lembrar África, por exemplo, cá vai:

E ouçam até ao fim!

sugiro, para mim, as melhores deles:

Yulunga

Nierika

The ubiquitous mr lovegrove

The host of seraphim

The lotus eaters

Um conselho: ouçam sempre até ao fim porque há músicas que, mesmo na recta final, introduzem novidades

Esta simplesmente não podia deixar de colocar aqui, embora tenha passado já algumas vezes na rádio. É daquelas músicas que são minhas e da minha mana. É linda e diz tudo! Atentem na letra!

Cantada com a Mariza:

Todos te querem bem
mas tu não, mas tu não
todos te querem também
mas tu não,mas tu não
eu vou estar aqui, vou estar aqui
para quando tu
não quiseres ouvir
vou estar aqui, por ti...

Quando não tens ninguém
eu estou cá, eu estou cá
e quero-te também
tu não vês, tu não vês
eu vou estar aqui, vou estar aqui
para quando tu, não quiseres ouvir
vou estar aqui, por ti

Eu não quero
eu não quero, ver o mundo inteiro
pronto a esquecer que tem alguém
que não tem tratado bem

E quando me vejo ao espelho
e pergunto-me
quando é que esse espelho vai sorrir, porque

Eu não quero
eu não quero, ver o mundo inteiro
pronto a esquecer que tem alguém
que não tem tratado bem

E quando me vejo ao espelho
e pergunto-me
quando é que esse espelho vai sorrir

Mais uma música de manas...

When you’re weary, feeling small,
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all;
I’m on your side. When times get rough
And friends just can’t be found,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

When you’re down and out,
When you’re on the street,
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you.
I’ll take your part.
When darkness comes
And pain is all around,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

Sail on silvergirl,
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine
If you need a friend
I’m sailing right behind.

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.

Let me wrap myself around you
Let you show me how I see
And when you come back in from nowhere
Do you ever think of me?
Your heart is not able
Let me show you how much I care
I need those eyes to tide me over
I’ll take your picture when I go
It gives me strength and gives me patience
But I’ll never let you know
I got nothing on you baby
But I always said I try
Let me show you how much I care
Cause sometimes it gets hard
And don’t she know
Don’t give the ghost up just clench your fist
You should have known by now you were on my list
Don’t give the ghost up just clench your fist
You should have known by now you were on my list
Don’t give the ghost up just clench your fist
You should have known by now you were wrong (on my list)
When your heart is not able
And your prayers they’re not fables
Let me show you (let me show you)
Let me show you (let me show you)
Let me show you how much I care oh

There is a house built out of stone
Wooden floors, walls and window sills...
Tables and chairs worn by all of the dust..
This is a place where I don't feel alone
This is a place where I feel at home.......

Cause, I built a home
for you
for me

Until it disappeared
from me
from you

And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust........

Out in the garden where we planted the seeds
There is a tree as old as me
Branches were sewn by the color of green
Ground had arose and passed it's knees

By the cracks of the skin I climbed to the top
I climbed the tree to see the world
When the gusts came around to blow me down
I held on as tightly as you held onto me
I held on as tightly as you held onto me......

Cause, I built a home
for you
for me

Until it disappeared
from me
from you

And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust........

Still falling
Breathless and on again
Inside today
Beside me today
Around broken in two
till you eyes shed
Into dust
Like two strangers
Turning into dust
till my hand shook with the way I fear

I could possibly be fading
Or have something more to gain
I could feel myself growing colder
I could feel myself under your fate
Under your fate

It was you breathless and tall
I could feel my eyes turning into dust
And two strangers turning into dust
Turning into dust

I want to hold the hand inside you
I want to take a breath thats true
I look to you and I see nothing
I look to you to see the truth
You live your life
You go in shadows
Youll come apart and youll go black
Some kind of night into your darkness
Colors your eyes with whats not there.

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think its strange you never knew

A strangers light comes on slowly
A strangers heart without a home
You put your hands into your head
And then smiles cover your heart

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think its strange you never knew

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think its strange you never knew
I think its strange you never knew

Segundo sei, uma música composta em homenagem à mãe da cantora, já falecida. Muito bonita.

The winter left her blanket
here this morning
A soft and gentle coverlet of white
Unfolded in the shadows of the dawn
It Sparked in the early morning l ight
You would have loved this
You would have loved this
This was your favorite time of day
The greenery is laid across the mantle
And ornaments are hanging on the tree
And cradled in the windowsill's a candle
A beacon in the night
to call you back to me
You would have loved this
You always loved this
I know you loved this time of year
And though I understand
One day again I'll see you
I long to touch your hand,
hear your voice, feel you
You would have loved this
You always loved this
Oh, how you loved

Mais uma música dedicada à mãe desta cantora.

Hold me
Even though I know you're leaving
And show me
All the reasons you would stay
It's just enough to feel your breath on mine
To warm my soul and ease my mind
You've got to hold me and show me now

Give me
Just one part of you to cling to
And keep me
Everywhere you are
It's just enough to steal my heart and run
And fade out with the falling sun

Oh, please don't go
Let me have you just one moment more
Oh, all I need
All I want is just one moment more
You've got to hold me and keep me

Tell me that someday you'll be returning
And maybe
Maybe I'll believe
It's just enough to see a shooting star
To know you're never really far
It's just enough to see a shooting star
To know you're never really gone

Oh, please don't go
Let me have you just one moment more
Oh, all I need
All I want is just one moment more

Oh, please don't go
Let me have you just one moment more
Oh, all I need
All I want is just one moment more
You've got to hold me and maybe I'll believe

So hold me
Even though I know you're leaving

Esta música faz parte da banda sonora do filme baseado no romance do Gabriel Garcia Marquez, "Amor em Tempos de Cólera".

Cada día pienso en tí
pienso un poco mas en tí
despedazo mi corazón
se destruye algo de mí.

Cada día pienso en tí
pienso un poco mas en tí.

Cada vez que sale el sol
busco en algo el valor
para continuar así
y te veo así y no te toque
rezo por ti cada noche
amanece y pienso en ti
y retumban en mis oídos
el tic-tac de los relojes
y sigo pensando en ti
y sigo pensando...

Vejam se se lembram desta! Ouvi-a pela primeira vez no filme Aventura Fora de Horas (era eu uma miudinha...) e ficou-me sempre no ouvido. Não passaram por aquela fase de tentar dançar como a actriz faz neste filme? Ai que risota!... E o mais engraçado ainda é a letra.

Well, he walked up to me and he asked me if I wanted to dance.
He looked kinda nice and so I said I might take a chance.
When he danced he held me tight
And when he walked me home that night
All the stars were shining bright
And then he kissed me.
Each time I saw him I couldn't wait to see him again.
I wanted to let him know that he was more than a friend.
I didn't know just what to do
So I whispered I love you
And he said that he loved me too
And then he kissed me.
He kissed me in a way that I've never been kissed before,
He kissed me in a way that I wanna be kissed forever more.
I knew that he was mine so I gave him all the love that I had
And one day he took me home to meet his mon and his dad.
Then he asked me to be his bride
And always be right by his side.
I felt so happy I almost cried
And then he kissed me.
Then he asked me to be his bride
And always be right by his side.
I felt so happy I almost cried
And then he kissed me.
And then he kissed me.
And then he kissed me

E ainda nesta onda, cá vai esta! Para quem gosta de música dos anos 60, fica nou ouvido e também entrou no filme Dança Comigo, se se lembram.

The night we met I knew I needed you so
And if I had the chance I'd never let you go
So won't you say you love me
I'll make you so proud of me
We'll make 'em turn their heads
Every place we go
So won't you please

(Be my be my baby) Be my little baby
(I want it only say) Say you'll be my darling
(Be my be my baby) Be my baby now
(I want it only say) Ooh, ohh, ohh, oh

I'll make you happy, baby
Just wait and see
For every kiss you give me
I'll give you three
Oh, since the day I saw you
I have been waiting for you
You know I will adore you
Till eternity
So won't you please

(Be my be my baby) Be my little baby
(I want it only say) Say you'll be my darling
(Be my be my baby) Be my baby now
(I want it only say) Ooh, ohh, ohh, ohh, oh

So come on and please
(Be my be my baby) Be my little baby
(I want it only say) Say you'll be my darling
(Be my be my baby) Be my baby now
(I want it only say) Ooh, ohh, ohh, oh

(Be my be my baby) Be my little baby
(I want it only say) Ooh-oh-oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh-oh
(Be my be my baby) Oh-oh-oh, oohh...
(I want it only say) Oh, oh, oh, oh, oooohh...

Why do you build me up (build me up) Buttercup, baby
Just to let me down (let me down) and mess me around

adoro esta musica..

Ain't No Sunshine
Bill Withers

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone.
It's not warm when she's away.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
and she's always gone too long
anytime she goes away.

Wonder this time where she's gone,
wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
and this house just ain't no home
anytime she goes away.

And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know

Hey, I ought to leave the young thing alone,
but ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
only darkness everyday.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
and this house just ain't no home
anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.

Amo esta musica...tb adoro o cover dos Muses, mas esta é qq coisa...

Nina Simone - Feeling Good

Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Reeds drifting on by you know how I feel
Its a new dawn it's a new day its a new life for me
And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom in the trees you know how I feel
It's a new dawn its a new day it's a new life for me
And I'm feeling good

Dragonflies all out in the sun
You know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies are all having fun
You know what I mean
Sleep in peace
When the day is done
And this old world is new world and a bold world for me

Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Yeah freedom is my life
And you know how I feel
Its a new dawn its a new day its a new life for me
And I'm feeling good

Ooooh
(Feeling good)

Adoro Nina Simone, mas esta música prefiro-a cantada pelo Bublé.

É de arrepiar...
Aimee Mann - Wise up

De volta aos não-comerciais...

Don't argue amongst yourselves
Because of the loss of me
I'm sitting amongst yourselves
Don't think you can't see me
Don't argue amongst yourselves
Because of the loss of me
I haven't gone anywhere
but out of my body

Reach out and you'll touch me
Make effort to speak to me
Call out and you'll hear me
Be happy for me

[Ullean pipe solo]

Don't argue amongst yourselves
Because of the loss of me
I haven't gone anywhere
but out of my body

Reach out and you'll touch me
Make effort to speak to me
Call out and you'll hear me
Be happy for me

Reach out and you'll touch me
Make effort to speak to me
Call out and you'll hear me
Be happy for me

Não podia deixar de pôr a novíssima balada dos U2! As meninas que são fãs da banda como eu certamente já a ouviram. É linda! Tem-me acompanhado diariamente no carro.

I tied myself with wire
To let the horses roam free
Playing with the fire
Until the fire played with me

The stone was semi precious
We were barely conscious
Two souls too smart to be
In the realm of certainty
Even on our wedding day

We set ourselves on fire
Oh God, do not deny her
Its not if I believe in love
(But) If love believes in me
Oh believe in me

At the moment of surrender
I folded to my knees
I did not notice the passers by
And they did not notice me

I’ve been in every black hole
At the alter of the Dark star
My body's now a begging bowl
That's begging to get back
Begging to get back
To my heart
To the rhythm of my soul
To the rhythm of my consciousness
To the rhythm that yearns
To be released from control

I was punching in the numbers at the ATM machine
I could see in the reflection
A face staring back at me
At the moment of surrender
Of vision over visibility
I did not notice the passers by
And they did not notice me

I was speeding off the subway
Through the stations of the cross
Every eye looking every other way
Counting down till the pain will stop

At the moment of surrender
Of vision over visibility
I did not notice the passers by
And they did not notice me

Linda,linda,linda...sou fa incondicional...

Madrinha, é o destino!
Sendo assim, dedico-te uma outra dos U2, velhinha mas com uma sonoridade que parece acabada de sair do forno! Sempre actual!

Like a desert needs rain
Like a town needs a name
I need your love
Like a drifter needs a room
Hawkmoon
I need your love
I need your love

Like a rhythm unbroken
Like drums in the night
Like sweet soul music
Like sunlight
I need your love

Like coming home
And you don't know where you've been
Like black coffee
Like nicotine
I need your love (I need your love)
I need your love (I need your love)
I need your love (I need your love)

When the night has no end
And the day yet to begin
As the room spins around
I need your love
I need your love

Like a Phoenix rising needs a holy tree
Like the sweet revenge of a bitter enemy
I need your love

Like the hot needs the sun
Like honey on her tongue
Like the muzzle of a gun
Like oxygen
I need your love (I need your love)
I need your love (I need your love)
I need your love (I need your love)

When the night has no end
And the day yet to begin
As the room spins around
I need your love

I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love

Like thunder needs rain
Like a preacher needs pain
Like tongues of flame
Like a sheet stained
I need your love
I need your love

Like a needle needs a vein
Like someone to blame
Like a thought unchained
Like a runaway train
I need your love

I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love

Like faith needs a doubt
Like a freeway out
I need your love

Like powder needs a spark
Like lies need the dark
I need your love

I need all the love in your heart... and I need all the love in your heart...
And I need all the love in your heart...and I need all the love in your heart...
And I need all the love in your heart...and I need all the love in your heart...
And I need all the love in your heart...and I need all the love in your heart...
And I need all the love in your heart...and I need all the love in your heart...
And I need all the love in your heart...and I need all the love in your heart...
And I need all the love in your heart...and I need all the love in your heart...
And I need all the love in your heart...and I need all the love in your heart...
And I need all the love in your heart...and I need all the love in your heart...

Oh que mimo tão bom...eu adoro essa musica

Há quanto tempo não ouvia isto!!!!

I don't feel alright in spite of these comforting sounds you make.
I don't feel alright because you make promises that you break.
Into your house, why don't we share our solitude?
Nothing is pure anymore but solitude.
It's hard to make sense, feels as if I'm sensing you through a lens.
If someone else comes, I'd just sit here listening to the drums.
Previously I never called it solitude.
And probably you know all the dirty shows I've put on.
Blunted and exhausted like anyone.
Honestly I tried to avoid it.
Honestly.
Back when we were kids, we would always know when to stiop.
And now all the good kids are messing up.
Nobody has gained or accomplished anything.

Aqui é que eu vejo que estou a ficar velha...

marco se n'è andato e non ritorna più
e il treno delle 7:30 senza lui
è un cuore di metallo senza l'anima
nel freddo del mattino grigio di città
a scuola il banco è vuoto, marco è dentro me
è dolce il suo respiro fra i pensiere miei
distanze enormi sembrano dividerci
ma il cuore batte forte dentro me

chissà se tu mi penserai
se con i tuoi non parli mai
se ti nascondi come me
sfuggi gli sguardi e te ne stai
rinchiuso in camera e non vuoi mangiare
stringi forte a te il cuscino
piangi e non lo sai quanto altro male ti farà la solitudine

marco nel mio diario ho una fotografia
hai gli occhi di bambino un poco timido
la stringo forte al cuore e sento che ci sei
fra i compiti d'inglese e matematica
tuo padre e i suoi consigli che monotonia
lui con il suo lavoro ti ha portato via
di certo il tuo parere non l'ha chiesto mai
ha detto "un giorno tu mi capirai"

chissà se tu mi penserai
se con gli amici parlerai
per non soffrire più per me
ma non è facile lo sai
a scuola non ne posso più
e i pomeriggi senza te
studiare è inutile tutte le idee si affollano su te
non è possibile dividere la vita di noi due
ti prego aspettami amore mio...
ma illuderti non so!
la solitudine fra noi
questo silenzio dentro me
è l'inquietudine di vivere la vita senza te
ti prego aspettami perché
non posso stare senza te
non è possibile dividere la storia di noi due

Bem... Parabéns por este tópico que já me permitiu tirar umas músicas para a banda sonora do meu casamento
Muito bom mesmo!!!!
