There is a Light That Never Goes Out - The Smiths

Uno de los clásicos del grupo británico, originario de Manchester, que contiene una buena dosis de humor negro, tragedia y algo de romanticismo marca de la casa.

Es seguro que en el pop no hay nada mejor que un buen estribillo y este es antológico, guiado por la voz del controvertido Morrisey quién participa en la composición junto al guitarrista Johnny Marr quién también cultiva la faceta de músico de sesión y directos con gente como Pet Shop boys o Beck y ha formado parte de algunas bandas como The The, Electronic, Johnny Marr & The Healers y Modest Mouse.

Take me out tonight 
where there's music and there's people 
and they're 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, da ... 
oh, i haven't got one 

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 

oh, there is a light and it never goes out 
there is a light and it never goes out

Get Lucky - Daft Punk (& Friends)

La primera vez que vi este vídeo casi me explota la cabeza.  ¡Caramba, si está Stevie Wonder! ¡Vaya, a la guitarra está Nile Rogers! ¡Joder, si a la bataca está Omar Hakim! ¡Osti, al bajo Nathan East! Bueno, también está Pharrel Williams...

¡Caramba, los Daft Punk!

Pero es que según iba viendo el vídeo y las mezclas que iban haciendo con otros temas de Chic, Stevie o los mismos Daft Punk, me quedaba aún más flipado. 

Y la puesta en escena es impresionante.

Un flipe.

Like the legend of the phoenix 
All ends with beginnings 
What keeps the planet spinning 
The force from the beginning 

We've come too far 
To give up who we are 
So let's raise the bar 
And our cups to the stars 

She's up all night to the sun 
I'm up all night to get some 
She's up all night for good fun 
I'm up all night to get lucky 

We're up all night to the sun 
We're up all night to get some 
We're up all night for good fun 
We're up all night to get lucky 

We're up all night to get lucky (x5) 

The present has no ribbon 
Your gift keeps on giving 
What is this I'm feeling 
If you want to leave I'm with it 

We've come too far 
To give up who we are 
So let's raise the bar 
And our cups to the stars 

She's up all night to the sun 
I'm up all night to get some 
She's up all night for good fun 

I'm up all night to get lucky 

We're up all night to the sun 
We're up all night to get some 
We're up all night for good fun 
We're up all night to get lucky 

We're up all night to get lucky (x5) 

[Daft Punk:] 
We’re up all night to get (x4) 
We’re up all night to get back together 
We’re up all night (let’s get back together!) 
We’re up all night to get funky 
We’re up all night to get lucky 
We’re up all night to get lucky (x8) 

[Pharrell:] 
We've come too far 
To give up who we are 
So let's raise the bar 
And our cups to the stars 

She's up all night to the sun 
I'm up all night to get some 
She's up all night for good fun 
I'm up all night to get lucky 

We're up all night to the sun 
We're up all night to get some 
We're up all night for good fun 
We're up all night to get lucky 

We Are All Made Of Stars - Moby

Sería difícil no conocer algún tema de Moby debido a su omnipresencia en el final del pasado siglo y en los inicios del actual. De hecho es muy improbable no haberle escuchado en alguna ocasión porque sus canciones han sonado en un buen número de películas y anuncios.

Del álbum Play, anterior a este que nos ocupa, todos los temas fueron requeridos para diferentes campañas comerciales con la popularidad y el lucro que ello supone. 

La presente canción es la que abre el exitoso disco 18 (cuyas composiciones también sonaron en un buen número de anuncios y películas) y en el vídeo se pueden apreciar a algunos cuantos famosos como Corey Feldman, Dave Navarro, Sean Bean (que esta vez no muere) y algunos otros.

A mí me parece un temazo y en el disco hay otros cuantos bastante potentes como Extreme Ways con cuya música finaliza El caso Bourne (The Borne Identity).

Growing in numbers

Growing in speed

Can't fight the future

Can't fight what I see

People they come together

People they fall apart

No one can stop us now

'Cause we are all made of stars

Efforts of lovers

Left in my mind

I sing in the reaches

We'll see what we find

People they come together

People they fall apart

No one can stop us now

'Cause we are all made of stars

People they come together

People they fall apart

No one can stop us now

'Cause we are all made of stars

Slow slow slow, come come

Someone come come come

Even love is goin' 'round

You can't ignore what is goin' 'round

Slowly rebuilding

I feel it in me

Growing in numbers

Growing in peace

People they come together

People they fall apart

No one can stop us now

'Cause we are all made of stars

People they come together

People they fall apart

No one can stop us now

'Cause we are all made of stars

People they come together

(People they come together)

People they fall apart

(People they fall apart)

No one can stop us now

(No one can stop us now)

'Cause we are all made of stars

(We are all made of stars)

'Cause we are all made of stars

People they come together

'Cause we are all made of stars

(People they fall apart)

'Cause we are all made of stars

(No one can stop us now)

'Cause we are all made of stars

(We are all made of stars)

The Inmigrant Song - Led Zeppelin

Inicio potente como lo es el resto del tema. Riffs pesados marcas de la casa, contundencia rítmica, gritos de batalla y mitología nórdica. Perteneciente al imprescindible "Led Zeppelin III" de 1970.

Ah ah 

We come from the land of the ice and snow 
from the midnight sun where the hot springs flow. 
The hammer of the gods 
will drive our ships to new lands 
to fight the horde singing and crying: 
valhalla i am coming! 
On we sweep with threshing oar 
our only goal will be the western shore. 
Ah ah 
We come from the land of the ice and snow 
from the midnight sun where the hot springs flow. 
How soft your fields so green, 
can whisper tales of gore, 
of how we calmed the tides of war. 
We are your overlords. 
on we sweep with threshing oar, 
our only goal will be the western shore. 
So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins, 
for peace and trust can win the day 
despite of all your losing.
