Musical Monday – Poison Heart

Essa é uma das minhas bandas preferidas, desde muito tempo. Curto a simplicidade dos caras, a atitude que eles tinham e a mensagem/letras de suas músicas.  Como citado em um certo nerdcast podcast “meio desconhecido”, os punks eram os blogueiros da época, por não serem músicos profissionais. Todos já passaram por essa fase musical, e espero que quando eu seja bem velhinho ainda curta ouví-los.

Das primeiras músicas que você aprende no violão ou guitarra, metade são deles (não, não estou falando do Chimbinha!!! Ò_Ó). Eles foram precursores e uma das bandas que melhor representou um gênero esquecido há mto tempo. Nada melhor do que um bom feijão com arroz musical, e essa música me fez comprar o álbum Mondo Bizarro.

Poison Heart by The Ramones

No one ever thought this one would survive
Helpless child, gonna walk a drum beat behind
Lock you in a dream, never let you go
Never let you laugh or smile, not you.

Well, I just want to walk right out of this world,
´Cause everybody has a poison heart
I just want to walk right out of this world,
´Cause everybody has a poison heart.

Making friends with a homeless torn up man
He just kind of smiles, it really shakes me up.
There´s danger on every corner but I´m okay
Walking down the street trying to forget yesterday.

Well, I just want to walk right out of this world,
´Cause everybody has a poison heart.
I just want to walk right out of this world,
´Cause everybody has a poison heart,
a poison heart, a poison heart, a poison heart … yeah!

You know that life really takes its toll
And a poet´s gut reaction is to search his very soul
So much damn confusion before my eyes,
But nothing seems to phase me and this one still survives.

I just want to walk right out of this world,
´Cause everybody has a poison heart.
I just want to walk right out of this world,
´Cause everybody has a poison heart,
Well, I just want to walk right out of this world,
´Cause everybody has a poison heart.
a poison heart, a poison heart, a poison heart.
a poison heart, a poison heart, a poison heart.

Como os dizeres na minha camiseta “preta” que está quase cinza e com a estampa desbotada de tanto usá-la: Hey Ho Let´s Go !

Midnight Oil – The Dead Heart

Essa música é de uma banda que tem muita engajação política na sua carreira. Não só isso, mas eles tem bastante tempo de carreira e no único álbum que tenho, todas as músicas contém uma mensagem para passar ao contrário de alguns sons que tocam na rádio, que digamos apenas que “não agregam muito valor ao seu dia”.

Com vocês, minha preferida de Midnight Oil, The Dead Heart:

The Dead Heart by Midnight Oil

We don’t serve your country
Don’t serve your king
Know your custom don’t speak your tongue
White man came took everyone

We don’t serve your country
Don’t serve your king
White man listen to the songs we sing
White man came took everything

We carry in our hearts the true country
And that cannot be stolen
We follow in the steps of our ancestry
And that cannot be broken

We don’t serve your country
Don’t serve your king
Know your custom don’t speak your tongue
White man came took everyone

We don’t need protection
Don’t need your hand
Keep your promise on where we stand
We will listen we’ll understand

We carry in our hearts the true country
And that cannot be stolen
We follow in the steps of our ancestry
And that cannot be broken

We carry in our hearts the true country
And that cannot be stolen
We follow in the steps of our ancestry
And that cannot be broken

Mining companies, pastoral companies
Uranium companies
Collected companies
Got more right than people
Got more say than people
Forty thousand years can make a difference to the state
of things
The dead earth lives here

Musical Monday – Born to be wild

[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUt8fQS9qEM]

Hoje vamos com um clássico do rock que eu ouvi pelo menos umas quatro vezes quando estava em um show de motoqueiros prestigiando a banda de um grande amigo meu, que por coincidência, também tocou essa música. Esse som é a música preferida de qualquer motoqueiro que se preze, o “hino” deles  e acima de tudo, um som f*dástico. Com vocês:

Born to be Wild by Steppenwolf

Get your motor running
Head out on the highway
Lookin’ for adventure
In whatever comes our way

Yeah, darlin’, gonna make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once and
Explode into space

I like smoke and lightning
Heavy metal thunder
Racin’ with the wind
And the feeling that I’m under

Yeah, darlin’, gonna make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once and
Explode into space

Like a true nature’s child
We were born, born to be wild
We can climb so high
I never want to die
Born to be wild
Born to be wild

Get your motor running
Head out on the highway
Lookin’ for adventure
In whatever comes our way

Yeah, darlin’, gonna make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once and
Explode into space

Like a true nature’s child
We were born, born to be wild
We can climb so high
I never want to die
Born to be wild
Born to be wild

Abraços !
