James - P.S. / Five-O - Live at the Astoria 1993

Duas das minhas músicas e letras preferidas... Fabulosas.
James numa fase brilhante, que felizmente acompanhei ao vivo... 

James - P.S.
You're a weapon of devotion
Keep the faithful entertained
You're a lover of attention
Found a way to pawn the soul
Disposition may be fetching
But the world moves on and leaves you far behind

I hear you, I hear you, whispering such gorgeous stories
I see you, I see you, trying to break free
You liar, you liar, you can't live the dreams you're spinning
You liar, love to be deceived

You're falling, you're falling, falling from your god-like distance
You're fashion, just fashion, fashion doesn't keep
You're sour, so sour, all is hope and trust is misplaced
You're sour, now you are alone

Walking on fire, feel the way the world's inclining
Walking on fire, hate to deceive
Walking on fire, now the world will keep its distance
Walking on fire, you rather than me

My son says, dear father, what did you do when the world turned over
Keep spinning, keep spinning, send us off to sleep
You liar, you liar, all your words are just dust in moonshine
You liar, love to be deceived

Walking on fire, found a place away from humans
Walking on fire, hate to deceive
Walking on fire, now the world will keep its distance
Walking on fire, you rather than me

James - Five-O
Are you open for trade
Your salvation, for something, for some thrills
Is a body of work for your inspection
You can trace, trace my concern
My concern

I've been looking for truth
At the cost of living
I've been afraid
Of what's before mine eyes
Every answer found
Begs another question
The further you go, the less you know
The less I know

I can feel your face
Gonna make it mine
I can be the man
I see in your eyes
Can you take my weight
Are we both too small
Know each other well
We've met before

Will we grow together
Will it be a lie
If it lasts forever, hope I'm the first to die
Will you marry me, Can we meet the cost
Is the power of love worth the pain of loss
Can you pay the bill, will you keep the change
Are you here for the party, or are you here for the pain

I can feel your face
Gonna make it mine
I can be the man
I see in your eyes
Will we grow together
Will it be a lie
If it lasts forever, hope I'm the first to die
Hope I'm the first to die

Arctic Monkeys - Fireside (Live)

Arctic Monkeys - Fireside
I can’t explain, but I want to try
There’s this image of you and I
And it goes dancing by in the morning
And in the night time
There’s all these secrets that I can’t keep
Like in my heart there’s that hotel suite
And you lived there so long
It’s kinda strange now you’re gone
I’m not sure if I should show you what I’ve found
Has it gone for good?
Or is it coming back around?
Isn’t it hard to make up your mind?
When you’re losing and your fuse is fireside
There’s all those places we used to go
And I suspect you already know
But that place on memory lane you liked still looks the same, but something about it’s changed
I’m not sure if I should show you what I’ve found
Has it gone for good?
Or is it coming back around?
Isn’t it hard to make up your mind?
When you’re losing and your fuse is fireside
And I thought I was yours forever
Maybe I was mistaken
But I just cannot manage to make it through the day
Without thinking of you lately
I’m not sure if I should show you what I’ve found
Has it gone for good?
Or is it coming back around?
Isn’t it hard to make up your mind?
When you’re losing and your fuse is fireside

Depeche Mode - Precious (Live in Barcelona)

Depeche Mode - Precious
Precious and fragile things
Need special handling
My God, what have we done to you?

We always tried to share
The tenderest of care
Now look what we have put you through

Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give

Angels with silver wings
Shouldn't know suffering
I wish I could take the pain for you

If God has a masterplan
That only he understands
I hope it's your eyes he's seeing through.

Things get damaged,
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give

I pray you learn to trust
Have faith in both of us
And keep room in your heart for two

Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give

José James & Emily King - Come To My Door (1 Mic 1 Take)

José James & Emily King - Come To My Door
(Verse)
So long we’ve been distant now,
Since you set out on your own,
You told me you had to find something to believe in.
Never thought you’d ever leave,
But as you walked out the door
I pray that you will soon find
All that you needing.
And while you’re out there on your own,
If the rain starts falling,
Or you get too cold.

(Chorus)
If you need a place to go,
Oh, I just want you to know
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright.
Oh, you can come to my door,
I don’t mind, I don’t mind,
I don’t mind at all.

(Verse)
So long you’ve been searching now,
But still I can see your face
The memories numb this pain
Just for a moment.
At night I lie sometimes
Awake in my bed,
Repeating over and over
Our conversation.
Right now as the moon is shining,
I know you’re out somewhere
You’re doing fine.

(Chorus)
If you’re ever feeling lonely
I just want you to know it’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright,
You can come to my door,
I don’t mind, I don’t mind, I don’t mind at all.

(Bridge)
And on that faithful day,
You know I will be waiting, oh.
You smile at me, then say
You loved me all along
And you come home.


(Chorus)
Oh, I just want you yo know
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright.
Oh, you can come to my door
I don’t mind, I don’t mind,
I don’t mind at all.
Oh, I just want you yo know
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright.
Oh, you can come to my door
I don’t mind, I don’t mind,
I don’t mind at all.
Oh, I just want you yo know
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright.
Oh, you can come to my door
I don’t mind, I don’t mind,
I don’t mind at all.
Oh, I just want you yo know
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright.
Oh, you can come to my door
I don’t mind, I don’t mind,
I don’t mind at all.

The Cure - Lovesong (Bestival Live 2011)

The Cure - Lovesong

Whenever I'm alone with you

You make me feel like I am home again

Whenever I'm alone with you

You make me feel like I am whole again

Whenever I'm alone with you

You make me feel like I am young again

Whenever I'm alone with you

You make me feel like I am fun again

However far away

I will always love you

However long I stay

I will always love you

Whatever words I say

I will always love you

I will always love you

Whenever I'm alone with you

You make me feel like I am free again

Whenever I'm alone with you

You make me feel like I am clean again

However far away

I will always love you

However long I stay

I will always love you

Whatever words I say

I will always love you

I will always love you

Placebo - A Million Little Pieces Live [RAK Studio] #Loud Like Love

Placebo - A Million Little Pieces
There wasn't much I used to need
A smile would blow a summer breeze through my heart
Now my mistakes are haunting me,
Like Winter came and put a freeze on my heart

I've lost the power to understand
what it takes to be a man with my heart
I saw you wanted this to end,
You tried your best to be a friend to my heart

but I'm leaving this worry town
please no grieving, my love, understand?

Whenever I was feeling wrong
I used to go and write a song from my heart
But now I feel I've lost my spark
No more glowing in the dark for my heart

So I'm leaving this worry town,
Please no grieving, my love, understand?

understand? [x4]

understand? (can't you see I'm sick of fighting?)
understand? (can't you tell I've lost my way?)
understand? (look at me theirs no denying)
understand? (I wont last another day)

So I'm leaving this worry town
Please no grieving, my love, understand?

Then I'm leaving this worry town
Please no grieving, my love, understand?

All my dreaming torn in pieces,
All my dreaming torn in pieces,
All my dreaming torn in pieces,
All my dreaming torn in pieces now

Quando a música fala por nós...

Jason Mraz - I Won´t Give Up
When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
There's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find
Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No I won't give up

I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got yeah, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not
And who I am

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up
I'm still looking up

I won't give up on us
(No, I'm not giving up)
God knows I'm tough, he knows
(I am tough, I am loved)
We got a lot to learn
(We're alive, We are loved)
God knows we're worth it
(And we're worth it)

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

Quando a música fala por nós... Bon Iver - I Can't Make You Love Me

Bon Iver - I Can't Make You Love Me
Turn down the lights;
Turn down the bed.
Turn down these voices
Inside my head.

Lay down with me;
Tell me no lies.
Just hold me close;
Don't patronize.

Don't patronize me.

'Cuz I can't make you love me
If you don't.
You can't make your heart feel
Something it won't.
Here in the dark
In these final hours,
I will lay down my heart
And I'll feel the power;
But you won't.
No, you won't.
'Cuz I can't make you love me
If you don't.

I'll close my eyes,
Then I won't see
The love you don't feel
When you're holding me.

Morning will come,
And I'll do what's right;
Just give me till then
To give up this fight.

And I will give up this fight.

'Cuz I can't make you love me
If you don't.
You can't make your heart feel
Something it won't.
Here in the dark
In these final hours,
I will lay down my heart
And I'll feel the power;
But you won't.
No, you won't.
'Cuz I can't make you love me
If you don't.
