Freedom! '90 - George Michael

Aunque en los últimos tiempos no gozara de mucha presencia en los medios, principalmente debido a algunas polémicas extramusicales, con su primer grupo/dúo Wham! gozó de muchísima fama. Al abandonar Wham!, sacó su primer disco en solitario, Faith, que fue un pelotazo de los grandes, tipo Madonna o Michael Jackson. Desde luego, la calidad de su voz es indiscutible. También componía, interpretaba muchos instrumentos y producía las canciones. Siempre peleado con la industria musical, reclamaba no ser considerado un mero cantante pop.
Este tema pertenece a su segundo disco, Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1



I won't let you down
I will not give you up
Gotta have some faith in the sound
It's the one good thing that i've got
I won't let you down
So please don't give me up
Because i would really, really love to stick around

All we have todo now
Is take these ties and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that i don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you rake
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy

Don't Go Breaking My Heart - Elton John (with Kiki Dee)



Don't Go Breaking My Heart (Elton John & Kiki Dee) was a June 1976 non-album single – later appearing on Elton John’s Greatest Hits Volume II and subsequent compilations. The single, produced by Gus Dudgeon and recorded during the Blue Moves sessions in Toronto, became Elton’s first appearance at the top of the UK Singles chart and was his sixth #1 single in the US. It was #2 on the Billboard Year-End Hot 100 singles chart for 1976.
The video was shot in one take, using a three-camera setup, on an unused London soundstage by director Mike Mansfield, who was on loan from a music television special being taped in the same studio. During the song’s instrumental section, Elton attempts to teach Kiki a version of the “hand jive”, a 1950s dance that would find a resurgence of popularity with the release of the film Grease in 1978.


Don't go breaking my heart
I couldn't if I tried
Honey if I get restless
Baby you're not that kind

Don't go breaking my heart
You take the weight off me
Honey when you knock on my door
I gave you my key

Nobody knows it
When I was down
I was your clown
Nobody knows it
Right from the start
I gave you my heart
I gave you my heart

So don't go breaking my heart
I won't go breaking your heart
Don't go breaking my heart

And nobody told us
'Cause nobody showed us
And now it's up to us babe
I think we can make it

So don't misunderstand me
You put the light in my life
You put the sparks to the flame
I've got your heart in my sights

Brothers in Arms - Joan Baez

Un ángel cantando Brothers in Arms


These mist covered mountains
Are a home now for me
But my home is the lowlands
And always will be
Someday you'll return to
Your valleys and your farms
And you'll no longer burn to be
Brothers in arms

Through these fields of destruction
Baptisms of fire
I've witnessed your suffering
As the battle raged higher
And though they did hurt me so bad
In the fear and alarm
You did not desert me
My brothers in arms

There's so many different worlds
So many different suns
And we have just one world
But we live in different ones

Now the sun's gone to hell and
The moon's riding high
Let me bid you farewell
Every man has to die
But it's written in the starlight
And every line in your palm
We are fools to make war
On our brothers in arms

Starless - King Crimson

Disfrútenlo



Sundown dazzling day
Gold through my eyes
But my eyes turned within
Only see
Starless and bible black

Ice blue silver sky
Fades into grey
To a grey hope that oh years to be
Starless and bible black

Old friend charity
Cruel twisted smile
And the smile signals emptiness
For me
Starless and bible black

Listen to the Music - The Doobie Brothers


Don't you feel it growin', 
Day by day
People 
Gettin' ready for the news
Some are happy, 
Some are sad
Wo, we got to let the music play 
Wo, oh yeah
What the people need
Is a way to make 'em smile
It ain't so hard to do if you know how
Gotta get a message
Get it on through
Oh now mama's goin' to after awhile
Wo, oh, oh, listen to the music
Wo, oh, oh, listen to the music
Wo, oh, oh, listen to the music
All the time 

Well I know, 
You know better
Everything I say
Meet me in the country for a day
We'll be happy
And we'll dance
Wo, we're gonna dance the blues away 
Wo, oh yeah
And if I'm feelin' good to you
And you're feelin' good to me
There ain't nothin' we can't do or say
Feelin' good,
Feeling fine
Wo, baby, let the music play 

Wo, oh, oh, listen to the music
Wo, oh, oh, listen to the music
Wo, oh, oh, listen to the music
All the time 

Like a lazy flowing river
Surrounding castles in the sky
And the crowd is growing bigger
List'nin' for the happy sounds
And I got to let em fly 

Wo, oh, oh, listen to the music
Wo, oh, oh, listen to the music
Wo, oh, oh, listen to the music
All the time 
Wo, oh, oh, listen to the music
Wo, oh, oh, listen to the music
Wo, oh, oh, listen to the music
Wo, oh, oh, listen to the music
All the time
God, we gotta let the music play!
