Well in this blog is all about music, musicians, bands that I love..
Some things that I find in the way, some albuns that I like..
Some nice stories to tell..
Anyway, mainly I want to share this great passion that I have with Music...
To me music have a huge meaning, is my inspiration for my life, makes me transcend to another world ! Every single music that I listen make me fly in my imagination !

Let me share something that Paul Hewson says:

"If we wanna change the world, we change people;
If we wanna change people, we start from the heart;
If we wanna change people´s heart we use MUSIC ! "



"I was born with music inside me. She was as necessary as food or water." Ray Charles

"Among the thanks we owe to God's goodness, one of the biggest is the music. The music is exactly as we received it: a pure soul, any music arouses feelings of purity " Miguel Unamuno

"The music is the bond that unites the life of the spirit life of the senses. The melody is sensitive life of poetry. "Beethoven

"The music is heavenly, the divine nature and of such beauty that enchants the soul and raises it above his condition" Aristoteles


*******************************************************


A ROCK HEART IS HARD TO TEAR APPART !

Music is so powerfull that can even change your life!!

When the house is ROCKING don´t bother knocking just come in !!

Music is so powerful that can even change my life !

Music is so powerful that can even change my life !

Long Life to Rock n Roll !!

Long Life to Rock n Roll !!

The meanig of music to me

I wasn´t raised on rock, but like Ray Charles says once, " I was born with music inside of me. She was necessary as food or water." This sentence makes a lot of sence, because to me music is represented in the same way...music is like feeding to my soul...
I can say that I was born with music passion... music leads my way, make me dream while I´m awake...Makes me fly in my thoughts... Transcends my world...
Like someone says once " Music is so powerfull that can even change my life."
My story with rock and all kinds of rock.. Well, sometimes ago someone show me the Rock World, the bands and the musicians that make part of it.. And since then I have known a lot of musics, musicians, bands...And now I can say that I´m a little addicted on rock and his derivatives...
I love all kinds of music, but specially rock...All I can says is:
" A Rock heart is hard to tear appart"
This love for music, is something special that born with someone, and when that happen, there´s a lot of good and amazing feelings that need to be shared, the world needs to know this such power that music put in each one of us...
Sometimes we can´t explain in words some of the feelings that surround our hearts, and like a blink of magic, arises a music that can describe exactly what we feel in certain moments...
Through music we can do a lot of good things, like touch hearts people, make the world go foward...
Definitly music is the only way to make the world in a different way to live...
Never forget this:
MUSIC IS SO POWERFULL THAT CAN EVEN CHANGE OUR LIFES !

Pearl Jam Release Me - Live Version

When I hear that song for the first time, I just love it ! And now I found this live version, and I guess this one is more powerfull, there´s a great energy on it!!
 I don´t know why but I´m kind addict to this song!
I guess is dedicated to his biologic father and his situations about him.



Oh... oh... oh...

I see the world. Feel the chill.
Which way to go? Windowsill.
I see the words on a rocking horse of time.
I see the verse in the rain.

Oh, dear dad can you see me now?
I am myself like you somehow.
I'll ride the wave where it takes me.
I'll hold the pain. Release me.
Ohh. Ohh I... Ohh. Ohh.

Oh, dear dad can you see me now?
I am myself like you somehow.
I'll wait up in the dark for you to speak to me.
How I've opened up. Release me.
Release me. Release me dad. Release me.
Ohh. Ohh I... Ohh. Ooh. Ooo.

Johnny Cash - God´s Gonna Get You Down


You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later god'll cut you down
Sooner or later god'll cut you down

Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that god's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that god's gonna cut 'em down

Well my goodness gracious let me tell you the news
My head's been wet with the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee talkin' to the man from
Galilee
He spoke to me in the voice so sweet
I thought i heard the shuffle of the angel's feet
He called my name and my heart stood still
When he said, "john go do my will!"

Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that god's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that god's gonna cut 'em down


You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later god'll cut you down
Sooner or later god'll cut you down

Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as god made black and white
What's down in the dark will be brought to the light

You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later god'll cut you down
Sooner or later god'll cut you down

Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that god's gonna cut you down
Tell 'em that god's gonna cut you down
Tell 'em that god's gonna cut you down
Dream Theater is one of my favourite metal bands, and Mr John Petrucci is my favourite guitarrist, he plays an amazing way, almost sureal !!

The Bird And The Bee  - How Deep Is Your Love (Cover)
 I found this version of this Bee Gees song, and I really love it!! 
Its so sweet, sounds like a lullabye!
 Enjoy it, this live version!


I know your eyes in the morning sun
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again

And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love and then softly leave
And it's me you need to show
How deep is your love

Is your love
How deep is your love?
I really need to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
They should all just let us be
We belong to you and me

I believe in you
You know the door to my very soul
You're the light in my deepest darkest hour
You're my saviour when I fall

And you may not think that I care for you
Well, you know down inside that I really do
And it's me you need to show
How deep is your love
Is your love

Is your love
How deep is your love?
I really need to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
They should all just let us be
We belong to you and me

Da, da, da, da, da...

And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love and then softly leave
And it's me you need to show
How deep is your love

Is your love
How deep is your love?
I really need to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
They should all just let us be
We belong to you and me
                                                             
How deep is your love...

Scorpions - Here In My Heart


Sometimes there's a time you must say goodbye
Though it hurts you must learn to try
I know I've got to let you go
But I know anywhere you go
You'll never be far
'Coz like the light of a bright star
You'll keep shining in my life
You're gonna be right

Here in my heart
That's where you'll be
You'll be with me
Here in my heart
No distance can keep us apart
Long as you're here in my heart

Won't be any tears falling from these eyes
'Coz when love's true love never dies
It says alive forever
Time can't take away what we have
I will remember our time together
You might think our time is through
But I'll still have you

Here in my heart
That's where you'll be
You'll be with me
Here in my heart
No distance can keep us apart
Long as you're here in my heart

I know you'll be back again
But until then
My love is waiting

Here in my heart
That's where you'll be
You'll be with me
Here in my heart
No distance can keep us apart
Long as you're here in my heart

This poem was an inspiration to the song a Bad Dream (Keane) and it was read by Neil Hannon from Divine Comedy, in  a keane concert.



An Irish Airman Foresses His Death




*It´s  narrated by Brendan Ross

I know that I shall meet my fate
Somewhere among the clouds above;

Those that I fight I do not hate,
Those that I guard I do not love;

My country is Kiltartan Cross,
My countrymen Kiltartan's poor,

No likely end could bring them loss
Or leave them happier than before.

Nor law, nor duty bade me fight,
Nor public men, nor cheering crowds,

A lonely impulse of delight
Drove to this tumult in the clouds;

I balanced all, brought all to mind,
The years to come seemed waste of breath,

A waste of breath the years behind
In balance with this life, this death

* William Yeats Butler (1865-1939)

 Covers made by Muse

The House Of The Rising Sun


There is a house in New Orleans,
They call the rising sun.
And it's been the ruin of many a poor Boy,
and God I know I'm one.

My mother was a tailor,
she sold my new blue jeans.
My father was a gamblin' man,
down in New Orleans.
Now the only thing a gambler needs is
a suitcase and a drum.
And the only time he'll be satisfied
Is when he's on the drum.

Oh mother, tell your children,
Not to do what I have done.
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the house of the Rising Sun.

Well I've got one foot on the platform,
the other on the train. I'm going
back to New Orleans to wear that ball and chain.....

This song is actually called 'The House Of The Rising Sun'

 Can´t Take My Eyes off You


You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you
You feel like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you

Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you makes me weak
There are no words left to speak
So if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just to good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you

I love you baby, and if it's quite alright
I need you baby to warm the lonely nights
I love you baby, trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down I pray
Oh pretty baby, now that I've found you, stay
Let me love you baby, let me love you

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you
You feel like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you

I love you baby, and if it's quite alright
I need you baby to warm the lonely nights
I love you baby, trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down I pray
Oh pretty baby, now that I've found you, stay
Let me love you baby, let me love you.

Music

Music, some say that life without it makes no sense... Many of us depend on it to feel full. It comes as a gift in the lives of those who compose it. Wherever we go she comes in our ears as the day in our life. Every song we hear affects our mood, it makes us feel happy, sad or angry, as the meaning we give it. All the music is part of our life, without it nothing makes sense. The music makes the world go round and move crowds wherever she goes, involves feelings and is present in every great moment of our lives. We can define music as a set of sounds, melodies, voices, letters, which when combined make up a song is the soundtrack of our lives and that song will accompany us every day that passes, every step we take . To find a song that goes for our feelings is not easy when we understand them. But sometimes we can not properly define our feelings, or perhaps do not understand well why we feel a certain way. For many people music is a kind of refuge when they feel sad listen to sad music, that goes for his state of mind. But some people prefer to hear cheerful melodies, trying to dispel such feelings sad... The music is an inspiration for life that stirs the senses and the feelings of those who make it a sort of cult...
Ben Harper - Happy Ever After In Your Eyes

This lullaby song was written to Heath Ledger´s Baby Girl



The morning sunrise spread her wings
While the moon hung in the sky
Held the sea in your hands
And happy everafter in your eyes

Couldn't leave you to go to heaven
I carry you in my smile
For the first time my true reflection I see
Happy everafter in your eyes

Every star in the night
Promises the dawn
I will be there if you fall
To ever so heavily rest upon

All that I can give you
Is forever yours to keep
Wake up every day with a dream
And happyever after in your eyes

Happy everafter is in your eyes

U2 Stuck in a moment (From Elevation Tour in Boston 2001)

This song was made by Bono to Michael Hutchence INXS






I'm not afraid of anything in this world
There's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't already heard
I'm just trying to find a decent melody
A song that I can sing in my own company


I never thought you were a fool
But darling, look at you
You gotta stand up straight, carry your own weight
These tears are going nowhere, baby

You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better now you're stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it

I will not forsake, the colours that you bring
But the nights you filled with fireworks
They left you with nothing
I am still enchanted by the light you brought to me
I still listen through your ears, and through your eyes I can see

And you are such a fool
To worry like you do
I know it's tough, and you can never get enough
Of what you don't really need now... my oh my

You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
Oh love look at you now
You've got yourself stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it

I was unconscious, half asleep
The water is warm till you discover how deep...
I wasn't jumping... for me it was a fall
It's a long way down to nothing at all

You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better now
You're stuck in a moment and you can't get out of it


And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if our way should falter
Along the stony pass

And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if your way should falter
Along the stony pass
It's just a moment
This time will pass

The song that I´m playing on my guitar

Pearl Jam - Man Of The Hour - Live Milan - Italy


Tidal waves don't beg forgiveness
Crashed, then on their way
Father he enjoyed collisions
Others walked away
A snowflake falls in may

And the doors are open now
As the bells are ringing out

Cause the man of the hour
Is taking his final bow
Goodbye for now

Nature as its own religion
Gospel from the land
Father ruled by long division
Young men they pretend
Old men comprehend

And the sky breaks at dawn
Shedding light upon this town
They'll all come around

Cause the man of the hour
Is taking his final bow
Goodbye for now

And the road
The old men paved
The broken seams along the way
The rusted signs
Left just for mee was guiding me
Love, his own way

Now the man of the hour
Is taking his final bow
As the curtain comes down
I feel that this is just goodbye for now

Into the Wild is a 2007 American drama film based on the 1996 non-fiction book of
the same name by Jon Krakauer about the adventures of Christopher McCandless.



* I read somewhere... how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong... but to feel strong.

* The core of mans' spirit comes from new experiences.

*When you forgive, you love. And when you love, God's light shines upon you.

*When you want something in life, you just gotta reach out and grab it.

Christopher McCandless

I've got this light
And the will to show
I will always be better than before

There's a big
A big hard sun
Beating on the big people
In the big hard world

Society
(...)
And you think you have to want more than you need
Until you have it all you won't be free

Society, you're a crazy breed
Hope you're not lonely without me...
When you want more than you have
You think you need...
And when you think more than you want
Your thoughts begin to bleed
(...)

Guaranteed
On bended knee is no way to be free
Lifting up an empty cup, I ask silently
All my destinations will accept the one that's me
So I can breathe...
Circles they grow and they swallow people whole
(...)
A mind full of questions, and a teacher in my soul
And so it goes...
(...)
Everyone I come across, in cages they bought
They think of me and my wandering, but I'm never what they thought
I've got my indignation, but I'm pure in all my thoughts
I'm alive...


From Wikipédia
Story : The film tells the story of a young student, Eugene Martone (played by Ralph Macchio), classical music that is passionate about blues. Being an aficionado of this style, he discovers that Robert Johnson, a famous blues player, had a contract to write 30 songs, but with only 29 recorded until his death. In search of the last lost music of Robert Johnson, it helps on the trail of Willie Brown (Joe Seneca), a former blues player in a home-prison. And so began the search for both the "Crossroads", where Robert Johnson allegedly sold his soul to the devil to become a famous blues singer. The film's denouement takes place with a glorious fotodeayer duel between the young student of classical music and the rocker of the Devil, Jack Butler (no less than the guitarist Steve Vai).

The Doors - Celebration of the lizard king (part 2/2)


Lions in the street and roaming
Dogs in heat, rabid, foaming
A beast caged in the heart of a city
The body of his mother
Rotting in the summer ground

He fled the town

He went down South and crossed the border
Left the chaos and disorder
Back there over his shoulder

One morning he awoke in a green hotel
With a strange creature groaning beside him
Sweat oozed from its shiny skin

Is everybody in?
The ceremony is about to begin

Wake up!
You can't remember where it was
Had this dream stopped?

The snake was pale gold
Glazed and shrunken
We were afraid to touch it
The sheets were hot dead prisons
And she was beside me
Old, she's not, young
Her dark red hair
Her white soft skin

Now, run to the mirror in the bathroom
Look!
I can't live thru each slow century of her moving
I let my cheek slide down
The cool smooth tile
Feel the good cold stinging blood
The smooth hissing snakes of rain . . .

Once I had, a little game
I liked to crawl back into my brain
I think you know the game I mean
I mean the game called 'go insane'

Now you should try this little game
Just close your eyes forget your name
Forget the world forget the people
And we'll erect a different steeple

This little game is fun to do
Just close your eyes no way to lose
And I'm right there I'm going too
Release control we're breaking thru

Way back deep into the brain
Back where there's never any pain
And the rain falls gently on the town
And over the heads of all of us
And in the labyrinth of streams
Beneath, the quiet unearthly presence of
Nervous hill dwellers in the gentle hills around
Reptiles abounding
Fossils, caves, cool air heights

Each house repeats a mold
Windows rolled
Beast car locked in against morning
All now sleeping
Rugs silent, mirrors vacant
Dust blind under the beds of lawful couples
Wound in sheets
And daughters, smug
With semen eyes in their nipples

Wait
There's been a slaughter here

(Don't stop to speak or look around
Your gloves and fan are on the ground
We're getting out of town
We're going on the run
And you're the one I want to come)

Not to touch the earth
Not to see the sun
Nothing left to do, but
Run, run, run
Let's run

House upon the hill
Moon is lying still
Shadows of the trees
Witnessing the wild breeze
C'mon baby run with me
Let's run

Run with me
Run with me
Run with me
Let's run

The mansion is warm, at the top of the hill
Rich are the rooms and the comforts there
Red are the arms of luxuriant chairs
And you won't know a thing till you get inside

Dead president's corpse in the driver's car
The engine runs on glue and tar
C'mon along, we're not going very far
To the East to meet the Czar

Some outlaws lived by the side of the lake
The minister's daughter's in love with the snake
Who lives in a well by the side of the road
Wake up, girl! We're almost home

Sun, sun, sun
Burn, burn, burn
Soon, soon, soon
Moon, moon, moon
I will get you
Soon!
Soon!
Soon!

Let the carnival bells ring
Let the serpent sing
Let everything

We came down
The rivers and highways
We came down from
Forests and falls

We came down from
Carson and Springfield
We came down from
Phoenix enthralled
And I can tell you
The names of the Kingdom
I can tell you
The things that you know
Listening for a fistful of silence
Climbing valleys into the shade

'I am the Lizard King
I can do anything
I can make the earth stop in its tracks
I made the blue cars go away

For seven years I dwelt
In the loose palace of exile
Playing strange games
With the girls of the island

Now I have come again
To the land of the fair, and the strong, and the wise

Brothers and sisters of the pale forest
O Children of Night
Who among you will run with the hunt?

Now Night arrives with her purple legion
Retire now to your tents and to your dreams
Tomorrow we enter the town of my birth
I want to be ready'
Drive - Amazing Song !!

The Cars

Scorpions Cover

Who's gonna tell you when,
It's too late,
Who's gonna tell you things,
Aren't so great.

You cant go on, thinkin',
Nothings' wrong, but bye,
Who's gonna drive you home,
tonight.?

Who's gonna pick you up,
When You fall?
Who's gonna hang it up,
When you call?

Who's gonna pay attention,
To your dreams?
And who's gonna plug their ears,
When you scream?

You can't go on, thinkin'
Nothings wrong, but bye,
Who's gonna drive you home, tonight?

Who's gonna hold you down,
When you shake?
Who's gonna come around,
When you break?

You can't go on, thinkin',
Nothin's wrong, but bye,
Who's gonna drive you home, tonight?

Oh, you know you can't go on, thinkin',
Nothin's wrong,
Who's gonna drive you home, tonight?
Cat Stevens - Father And Son (live)

It's not time to make a change
Just relax, take it easy
You're still young, that's your fault
There's so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle down
If you want, you can marry
Look at me, I am old
But I'm happy

I was once like you are now
And I know that it's not easy
To be calm when you've found
Something going on
But take your time, think a lot
I think of everything you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not

How can I try to explain
When I do he turns away again
And it's always been the same
Same old story
From the moment I could talk
I was ordered to listen
Now there's a way and I know
That I have to go away
I know I have to go

It's not time to make a change
Just sit down and take it slowly
You're still young that's your fault
There's so much you have to go through
Find a girl, settle down
If you want, you can marry
Look at me, I am old
But I'm happy

All the times that I've cried
Keeping all the things I knew inside
And it's hard, but it's harder
To ignore it
If they were right I'd agree
But it's them they know, not me
Now there's a way and I know
That i have to go away
I know I have to go
