Cristina Branco - Não há só tangos em Paris



Beijei teu retrato, esborratou-se a tinta
Num corpo abstracto que a saudade pinta
E a esquadrinhar teus traços já dei por mim louca
Diz-me lá Picasso onde ele tem a boca

Esse teu retrato vou expô-lo em Paris
Já usado e gasto, ver se alguém me diz
Onde é que te encontro, se não te perdi

Por te ter chorado desfiz o meu rosto
E num triste fado encontrei encosto
Dei-me a outros braços, mas nada que preste
Diz-me lá Picasso que namoro é este

Este meu retrato vou expô-lo em Paris
E assim ao teu lado eu hei-de ser feliz
Se nunca te encontro, nunca te perdi

Sei, não há só tangos em Paris
E nos fados que eu vivi
Só te encontro em estilhaços

Pois bem, tão certa espero por ti
Se com um beijo te desfiz
Com um beijo te refaço

Este meu retrato vou expô-lo em Paris
E assim ao teu lado eu hei-de ser feliz
Se nunca te encontro, nunca te perdi

Sei, não há só tangos em Paris
E nos fados que eu vivi
Só te encontro em estilhaços

Pois bem, tão certa espero por ti
Se com um beijo te desfiz
Com um beijo te refaço

Se com um beijo te desfiz
Com um beijo te refaço

PJ Harvey - Down by the water



I lost my heart
Under the bridge
To that little girl
So much to me
And now I'm old
And now I holler
She'll never know
Just what I found

That blue eyed girl
(that blue eyed girl)
She said "no more"
(she said "no more")
That blue eyed girl
(that blue eyed girl)
Became blue eyed whore
('came blue eyed whore)
Down by the water
(down by the water)
I took her hand
(I took her hand)
Just like my daughter
(just like my daughter)
Won't see her again
(see her again)

Oh help me Jesus
Come through this storm
I had to lose her
To do her harm
I heard her holler
(I heard her holler)
I heard her moan
(I heard her moan)
My lovely daughter
(my lovely daughter)
I took her home
(I took her home)

Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter
Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter
Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter
Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter
Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter
Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter
Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter
Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter

Aurea - Busy (for me)



I tried to call you
But you didn´t answer the phone
I tried to pick you up
But you didn´t come along
I tried to talk to you
But you didn’t even answer me
I tried to reach you
But you´re so high up above

Oh baby
I try everyday
I cry every night
For a second of your time
But you´re so busy for me
You don´t care for my plea
So I cry, cry, cry, cry...

Oh...
I tried to tease you
But you didn´t even care
I tried to love you
But your heart closed its doors

Oh baby
I try everyday
I cry every night
For a second of your time
But you´re so busy for me
You don´t care for my plea
So I cry, cry, cry, cry...

I try everyday
I cry every night
For a second of your time
But you´re so busy for me
You don´t care for my plea
So I cry, cry, cry, cry...

So you didn´t come along
You didn´t answer
You didn´t care
You closed your heart for me

Oh...
(I tried to call you... pick up the phone)

You´re so busy...

GNR - Efectivamente



Adoro o campo, as árvores, as flores, jarros e perpétuos amores
Que fiquem perto da esplanada de um bar
Pássaros estúpidos a esvoaçar

Adoro as pulgas dos cães
Todos os bichos do mato
O riso das crianças dos outros
Cágados de pernas para o ar

Efectivamente
Escuto as conversas
Importantes ou ambíguas
Aparentemente sem moralizar

Adoro as pêgas e os pederastas que passam
Finjo nem reparar
Na atitude tão clara e tão óbvia de quem anda a engatar

Adoro esses ratos de esgoto
Que disfarçam ao dealar
Como se fossem mafiosos convictos habituados a controlar

Efectivamente
Gosto de aparências
Imponentes ou equívocas
Aparentemente sem moralizar

Efectivamente
Gosto de aparências
Aparentemente sem moralizar

Aparentemente
Escuto as conversas
Efectivamente sem moralizar

Efectivamente
Sem moralizar
Aparentemente
Sem moralizar
Efectivamente

Pearl Jam - Black



Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything?
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can, drop away
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...
All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I will be...yeah...

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star
In somebody else's sky, but why, why, why
Can't it be, can't it be mine

David Fonseca - Someone that cannot love



You locked your heart
You wake up with tears and stars in your eyes
You gave it all to someone that
Cannot love you back

Your days are packed
With wishes and hopes for the love that you've got
You waste it all to someone that
Cannot love you back

Someone that cannot love

Love, ain't this enough?
You push yourself down
You try to take comfort in words
But words
They cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more

You secretly made
Castles of sand that you hide in the shade
But you cannot own the tides that break them
And you build them all over again

You talk all these words
You make conversations that cannot be heard
How long until you notice that
No one is answering back

Someone that cannot love

Love, ain't this enough?
You push yourself down
You try to take comfort in words
But words
They cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more

Love, love, ain't this enough?
You’re pushing around
You try to take comfort in words
But words
Well, they cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more

Someone that cannot love
Someone that cannot love
Someone that cannot love

Love, ain't this enough?
You push yourself down
You try to take comfort in words
But words
They cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more

Love, love, ain't this enough?
You're pushing around
To find little comfort in words
But words
Well, they cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more

You know they'll bruise you more
Words they will hurt you more
Words they will hurt you more

Yes, they’ll hurt you

Someone that cannot love
Someone that cannot love

Jamie Cullum - Don't stop the music



It's gettin late
I'm making my way over to my favorite place
I gotta get my body moving, shake the stress away
I wasn't looking for nobody when you looked my way
Possible candidate

Who knew,
That you'd be up here looking like you do
You're making staying over here impossible
Baby I must say your aura is incredible
If you don't have to go, don't

Do you know what you started
I just came here to party
But now we're rockin on the dancefloor
Acting naughty
Your hands around my waist
Just let the music play
We're hand in hand
Chest to chest
And now we're face to face

I wanna take you away
Lets escape into the music
DJ let it play
I just can't refuse it
Like the way you do this
Keep on rockin to it
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music

I wanna take you away
Lets escape into the music
DJ let it play
Like the way you do this
Keep on rockin to it
Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music

Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music

I said baby, baby are you ready cause it's getting close
Don't you feel the passion ready to explode
What goes on between us no one has to know
This is a private show

Do you know what you started
I just came here to party
But now we're rockin on the dancefloor
Acting naughty
Your hands around my waist
Just let the music play
We're hand in hand
Chest to chest
And now we're face to face

I wanna take you away
Lets escape into the music
DJ let it play
I just can't refuse it
Like the way you do this
Keep on rockin to it
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music

I wanna take you away
Lets escape into the music
DJ let it play
Like the way you do this
Keep on rockin to it
Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music

Please don't stop the music

Mariza - Rosa branca



Rosa ao peito na roda
Eu bailei com quem calhou

Rosa ao peito na roda
Eu bailei com quem calhou

Tantas voltas dei bailando
Que a rosa se desfolhou

Tantas voltas dei bailando
Que a rosa se desfolhou

Quem tem, quem tem
Amor a seu jeito
Colha a rosa branca
Ponha a rosa ao peito

Quem tem, quem tem
Amor a seu jeito
Colha a rosa branca
Ponha a rosa ao peito

Ó roseira, roseirinha
Roseira do meu jardim

Ó roseira, roseirinha
Roseira do meu jardim

Se de rosas gostas tanto
Porque não gostas de mim?

Se de rosas gostas tanto
Porque não gostas de mim?

Quem tem, quem tem
Amor a seu jeito
Colha a rosa branca
Ponha a rosa ao peito

Quem tem, quem tem
Amor a seu jeito
Colha a rosa branca
Ponha a rosa ao peito

Quem tem, quem tem
Amor a seu jeito
Colha a rosa branca
Ponha a rosa ao peito

Quem tem, quem tem
Amor a seu jeito
Colha a rosa branca
Ponha a rosa ao peito

Quem tem, quem tem
Amor a seu jeito
Colha a rosa branca
Ponha a rosa ao peito

Quem tem, quem tem
Amor a seu jeito
Colha a rosa branca
Ponha a rosa ao peito

Colha a rosa branca
Ponha a rosa ao peito

Colha a rosa branca
Ponha a rosa ao peito

Bon Jovi - Livin' on a prayer




Once upon a time
Not so long ago

Tommy used to work on the docks
Unions been on strike
He's down on his luck... it's tough, so tough
Gina works the diner all day
Working for her man, she brings home her pay
For love, for love.

She says we've got to hold on to what we've got
cause it doesn't make a difference
If we make it or not
We’ve got each other and that’s a lot
For love, we’ll give it a shot

Whooah, we’re half way there
Livin’ on a prayer
Take my hand and we’ll make it, I swear
Livin’ on a prayer

Tommy’s got his six string in hock
Now he’s holding in what he used
To make it talk. So tough, it’s tough
Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night
Tommy whispers baby it's okay, someday

We’ve got to hold on to what we’ve got
cause it doesn’t make a difference
If we make it or not
We’ve got each other and that’s a lot
For love, we’ll give it a shot

Whooah, we’re half way there
Livin’ on a prayer
Take my hand and we’ll make it, I swear
Livin’ on a prayer

We’ve got to hold on ready or not
You live for the fight when it’s all that you’ve got

Whooah, we’re half way there
Livin’ on a prayer
Take my hand and we’ll make it, I swear
Livin’ on a prayer
