la canción: "who's gonna save my soul"

Duele que te dejen, que primero te digan, mirándote a los ojos o más allá, tenemos que hablar y después, así, sin preámbulo sin nada más, digan que no, que no sos vos, que es ella, que estaría bueno seguir siendo amigos, que no se corte.
Duele que te partan el corazón. Claro que sí. Si no, miren.



Gnarls Barkley lo hizo de nuevo.

Bad news
This morning
Which en turn made my day
When this someone
Spoke i listen
Ohh a sudden has less
And less to say
Oooo how could this be
All this time
I lived by carrsioly
Who's Gonna Save My Soul now
Who's Gonna Save My Soul now
How will story
Ever be told now
How will story be told now

Made me fell like somebody
Like somebody else
Although he was imatied often
Feel like i would be myself
It a shame
That someone elses song
Was totally
And completely depended on

Who's ganna sang my song now
Who's ganna sang my song now
I wonder
If i will live grow old now
Getting high
Cause i feel so lone now
I may be just a little selfish
All i have is the memory
Yet i never start to wonder
Is it possible
You hurt worse than me
still my heart turns to greed
cause what about what i need
An aahh
Who's gon save my soul now
Whooo's gon save my soul now
Oo i know
I'm out of control now
Tired enough
To lay my own soul down

la canción: "wandering stars"

Ocho de la mañana. Afuera todo es negro por la oscuridad, aunque el suelo -el pasto, el barro- esté blanco por el hielo. El vidrio de la trafic tiene una capa de tres centímetros de espesor de escarcha: los limpia parabrisas no van ni para atrás ni para adelante, si así se puede describir el movimiento que hacen. Hay que ir prender la hornalla y poner agua a calentar para mojar la batería y limpiar el vidrio. Hay que usar una buena campera y guantes. Hay que prender el auto y recién ahí el pasacaset. Hay que poner la calefacción al mango. Hay que cerrar la puerta con fuerza. Hay que mover los pies para que no se congelen. Hay que enfilar por el camino, rompiendo charcos helados, golpeando las ramas de los sauces que ceden ante el peso del hielo. Hay que ir por la ruta negra, con las líneas blancas y amarillas como guías. Hay que escuchar "wandering stars".

Wandering Stars (versión unplugged, o algo parecido)




Wandering Stars en vivo



Please could you stay awhile to share my grief
For its such a lovely day
To have to always feel this way
And the time that I will suffer less
Is when I never have to wake

Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever
Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever

... Those who have seen the needles eye, now tread
Like a husk, from which all that was, now has fled
And the masks, that the monsters wear
To feed, upon their prey

Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever
Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever

(always) doubled up inside
Take awhile to shed my grief
(always) doubled up inside
Taunted, cruel.... ...

Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever
Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever

la canción: "only an expert can deal with a problem"

Y un día, así de sopetón y sin avisarle a nadie, decidí volver. Pero volver sin rutina, volver sin orden ni progreso, volver sin plan de viaje, mapa, brújula ni nada parecido. Volver libre, como el sol cuando amanece. Elegir las canciones porque sí -antes también lo hacía, es cierto-, pero poner la letra y poner el video y nada más.
Y volvemos con Laurie, y la tiene tan clara.






Now only an expert can deal with the problem
Because half the problem is seeing the problem
And only an expert can deal with the problem
Only an expert can deal with the problem

So if there’s no expert dealing with the problem
It’s really actually twice the problem
Cause only an expert can deal with the problem
Only an expert can deal with the problem

Now in America we like solutions
We like solutions to problems
And there’s so many companies that offer solutions
Companies with names like Pet Solution
The Hair Solution. The Debt Solution. The World Solution. The Sushi Solution.
Companies with experts ready to solve the problems.
Cause only an expert can see there’s a problem
And only an expert can deal with the problem
Only and expert can deal with the problem

Now let’s say you’re invited to be on Oprah
And you don’t have a problem
But you want to go on the show, so you need a problem
So you invent a problem
But if you’re not an expert in problems
You’re probably not going to invent a very plausible problem
And so you’re probably going to get nailed
You’re going to get exposed
You’re going to have to bow down and apologize
And beg for the public’s forgiveness.
Cause only an expert can see there’s a problem
And only an expert can deal with the problem
Only an expert can deal with the problem

Now on these shows, the shows that try to solve your problems
The big question is always “How can I get control?
How can I take control?”
But don’t forget this is a question for the regular viewer
The person who’s barely getting by.
The person who’s watching shows about people with problems
The person who’s part of the 60% of the U.S. population
1.3 weeks away, 1.3 pay checks away from homelessness.
In other words, a person with problems.
So when experts say, “Let’s get to the root of the problem
Let’s take control of the problem
So if you take control of the problem you can solve the problem.”
Now often this doesn’t work at all because the situation is completely out of control.
Cause only an expert can deal with the problem
Only an expert can deal with the problem
Only an expert can deal with the problem

So who are these experts?
Experts are usually self-appointed people or elected officials
Or people skilled in sales techniques, trained or self-taught
To focus on things that might be identified as problems.
Now sometimes these things are not actually problems.
But the expert is someone who studies the problem
And tries to solve the problem.
The expert is someone who carries malpractice insurance.
Because often the solution becomes the problem.
Cause only an expert can deal with the problem
Only an expert can deal with the problem
Only an expert can deal with the problem

Now sometimes experts look for weapons.
And sometimes they look everywhere for weapons.
And sometimes when they don’t find any weapons
Sometimes other experts say, “If you haven’t found any weapons
It doesn’t mean there are no weapons.”
And other experts looking for weapons find things like cleaning fluids.
And refrigerator rods. And small magnets. And they say,
“These things may look like common objects to you
But in our opinion, they could be weapons.
Or they could be used to make weapons.
Or they could be used to ship weapons.
Or to store weapons.”
Cause only an expert can see they might be weapons
And only an expert can see they might be problems.
Cause only an expert can deal with the problem
Only an expert can deal with the problem
Only an expert can deal with the problem

And sometimes, if it’s really really really hot.
And it’s July in January.
And there’s no more snow and huge waves are wiping out cities.
And hurricanes are everywhere.
And everyone knows it’s a problem.
But if some of the experts say it’s no problem
And other experts claim it’s no problem
Or explain why it’s no problem
Then it’s simply not a problem.
But when an expert says it’s a problem
And makes a movie and wins an Oscar about the problem
Then all the other experts have to agree that it is most likely a problem.
Cause only an expert can deal with the problem
Only an expert can deal with the problem
Only an expert can deal with the problem

And even though a county can invade another country.
And flatten it. And ruin it. And create havoc and civil war in that other country
If the experts say that it’s not a problem
And everyone agrees that they’re experts good at seeing problems
Then invading that country is simply not a problem.
And if a country tortures people
And holds citizens without cause or trial and sets up military tribunals
This is also not a problem.
Unless there’s an expert who says it’s the beginning of a problem.
Cause only an expert can deal with the problem
Only an expert can deal with the problem
Only an expert can deal with the problem

Only an expert can see there’s a problem
And see the problem is half the problem
And only an expert can deal with the problem
Only an expert can deal with the problem
