Editors - An end has a start

Not my favourite, but still... today I am leaving Paris after a year, and Editors had a big role on my soundtrack, same as Maren. Thanks.



I don't think that it's
Gonna rain again today
There's a devil at your side
But an angel on her way

Someone hit the light
'Cause there's more here to be seen
When you caught my eye
I saw everywhere I'd been
And wanna go to

You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
With hope in your hands
And air to breathe

I won't disappoint you
As you fall apart
Some things should be simple
Even an end has a start

Someone hit the light
'Cause there's more here to be seen
When you caught my eye
I saw everywhere I'd been
And wanna go to

You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
With hope in your hands
And air to breathe

You lose everything
By the end
Still my broken limbs
You find time to mend

More and more people
I know are getting ill
Pull something good from
The ashes now be still

You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
With hope in your hands
And air to breathe

You lose everything
By the end
Still my broken limbs
You choose to mend

You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
You came on your own
That's how you'll leave

You came on your own

You came on your own

Joshua Radin - Sky



I woke, dreaming we had broke
dreaming you left me
for someone new
and you cried, drying those brown eyes
crying you're sorry
sorry won't do, but
this is the way i need to wake
i wake to you
and you never left me, all that i'd dreamt had been untrue
open my eyes, i see sky
oh oh, oh oh, you know
the way to keep me on my toes
i, i , i... will be fine
just say you'll stay forever mine
til we fall asleep tonight

Last night, we had a great fight
I fell asleep in
horrible state

than dreamt that you loved my best friend
my heart would not mend
seemed it was fate but
this is the way i need to wake
i wake to you
and you never left me
all that I'd dreamt had been untrue
open my eyes, i see sky
oh oh, oh oh you know the way to keep me on my toes
i,i, i... will be fine
just say you'll stay mine forever
til we fall asleep tonight

sometimes i forget to love you
like i should, love you like i should
but i'd never leave you no i never would i never would
oh oh oh oh you know the way to keep me on my toes
i, i, i... will be fine
just say you'll stay forever mine
oh oh oh oh you know the way to keep me on my toes
i, i, i... will be fine
I will be fine
just say you'll stay forever mine.
til we fall asleep tonight
til we fall... asleep... tonight

Kenna - Sun Red Sky Blue



Underneath your skin again
Right below your innocence
I can tell your hesitance
Let me heal the heart of it, my Love

give me your sun red sky blue, Love I'm falling into you
under a sun red sky blue

I see through you in this life
Your fingertips have stories fading
I believed I take flight with wings of wax and heart of ice
melted by your blessed eyes, angel hear my cries

Give me your sun red sky blue Love, I'm falling into you
Under a sun red, sky blue I'm giving into you

Raise your eyes
Leave blame in the past world
and heaven is in mind and you're here for something more.
It's 11:59 and I'm still believing
Yeah, I'm still believing

So give me your Sun red sky blue Love, I'm falling into you
under this sun red sky blue, Love

I'm giving into you
I'm giving into you
I'm giving into you
I'm falling into you

sun red sky blue
I'm falling into you
Giving into you
moving back to you

sun red sky blue

I'm giving into you

Ingrid Michaelson - The way I am





If you were falling
Then I would catch you
You need a light
I'd find a match

Cause I love the way you say good morning
And you take me the way I am

If you are chilly
Here take my sweater

Your head is aching
I'll make it better

Cause I love the way you call me baby
And you take me the way I am

I'd buy you Rogaine
When you start losing all your hair

Sew on patches
To all you tear

Cause I love you more than I could ever promise
And you take me the way I am mmm

you take me the way I am
you take me the way I am

Jason Mraz - Clockwatching




Take off, both your, shoes and clothes, I'll follow.
Undo, corkscrew, drink from the top of a broken bottle.
Lately we're running out of time, aren't we?

Smoking, often, and calling out our guilty pleasures,
Let's keep, talking, anything to stop clockwatching.
Lately we're running out of time, aren't we?
Crazy for running all the time, m-m-m-m-maybe.
Let's forget we're running out of time.

I'm off like an airplane,
I'm licking your postage stamp again.
I'm using my right brain and I'm praying that we don't crash.
Who knew I'd cum so fast.
Well so what if a two pump chump can't last.

But I made it to three, and I foreclose a five minute, fantasy.
On a short-lived flight, making love on economy
No jumping, conclusions,
I don't think there's no solution,
Let's get, backwards,
And forget our restless destination.

Let's live in this moment just this time, could we?
Just take one moment of our time m-m-m-m-maybe.
Let's forget we running out of time

I'm off like an airplane,
I'm catching my second wind again.
I'm using my left brain
And I'm righting all my wrongs.
I'm yearning to turn you on.

I've been working on getting you off, so get on board.
Well how can I guess by the subject of the best predicate that's left unsaid when the matter is too delicate.
My loneliness is evident.

And its you,
You're running through my mind and it makes me c-c-crazy cra-cra-crazy.

La la la
La la la la la
La la la (ooooooo, so amazing)
La la la la la laLa la la
Laaaa oh oh
Laaaaaa lo oh oh oh

Lady, dreamer, you might be the soundest sleeper,
Tonight, sleep tight, and build your nest upon my shoulder.

Amy Winehouse - Back to Black




He left no time to regret
Kept his dick wet
With his same old safe bet
Me and my head high
And my tears dry
Get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew
So far removed from all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track
My odds are stacked
I'll go back to black

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to.....

I go back to us

I love you much
It's not enough
You love blow and I love puff
And life is like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside

We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to

Black, black, black, black, black, black, black,
I go back to
I go back to

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to black

Death Cab For Cutie - I will follow you into the dark


Love of mine some day you will die

But I'll be close behindI'll follow you into the dark

No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white

Just our hands clasped so tight

Waiting for the hint of a spark

If Heaven and Hell decide

That they both are satisfied

Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you

When your soul embarks

Then I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule

I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black

And I held my tongue as she told me

"Son fear is the heart of love"

So I never went back

If Heaven and Hell decide

That they both are satisfied

Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you

When your soul embarks

Then I'll follow you into the dark

You and me have seen everything to see

From Bangkok to Calgary

And the soles of your shoes are all worn down

The time for sleep is now

It's nothing to cry about'cause we'll hold each other soon

In the blackest of rooms

If Heaven and Hell decide

That they both are satisfied

Illuminate the No's on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you

When your soul embarks

Then I'll follow you into the dark

Then I'll follow you into the dark

Pablo Neruda - Muere lentamente

Dies slowly he who transforms himself in slave of habit,
repeating every day the same itineraries,
who does not change brand,
does not risk to wear a new color and doesn't talk to whom doesn't know.

Dies slowly he who makes of television his guru.

Dies slowly he who avoids a passion,
who prefers black to white
and the dots on the "i" to a whirlpool of emotions,
just those ones that recover the gleam from the eyes,
smiles from the yawns,
hearts from the stumbling and feelings.

Dies slowly he who does not overthrow the table when is unhappy at work,
who does not risk the certain for the uncertain
to go toward that dream that is keeping him awake.

Who does not allow, at least one time in life, to flee from sensate advises.

Dies slowly he who does not travel, does not read,
does not listen to music, who does not find grace in himself.

Dies slowly he who destroys his self love,
who does not accept somebody's help.

Dies slowly he who passes his days complaining of his bad luck or the incessant rain.

Dies slowly he who abandons a project before starting it,
who does not ask over a subject that does not know
or who does not answer when being asked about something he knows.

Dies slowly he who does not share his emotions, joys and sadness,
who does not trust, who does not even try.

Dies slowly he who does not relive his memories
and continues getting emotional as if living them at that moment.

Dies slowly he who does not intent excelling,
who does not learn from the stones of the road of life,
who does not love and let somebody love.

Let's avoid death in soft quotes,
remembering always that to be alive demands an effort much bigger
that the simple fact of breathing.

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


Muere lentamente quien se transforma en esclavo del hábito, repitiendo todos los días los mismos trayectos, quien no cambia de marca, no arriesga vestir un color nuevo y no le habla a quien no conoce.

Muere lentamente quien hace de la televisión su gurú.

Muere lentamente quien evita una pasión, quien prefiere el negro sobre blanco y los puntos sobre las "íes" a un remolino de emociones, justamente las que rescatan el brillo de los ojos, sonrisas de los bostezos, corazones a los tropiezos y sentimientos.

Muere lentamente quien no voltea la mesa cuando está infeliz en el trabajo, quien no arriesga lo cierto por lo incierto para ir detrás de un sueño, quien no se permite por lo menos una vez en la vida, huir de los consejos sensatos.

Muere lentamente quien no viaja, quien no lee, quien no oye música, quien no encuentra gracia en sí mismo.

Muere lentamente quien destruye su amor propio, quien no se deja ayudar.

Muere lentamente, quien pasa los días quejándose de su mala suerte o de la lluvia incesante.

Muere lentamente, quien abandona un proyecto antes de iniciarlo, no preguntando de un asunto que desconoce o no respondiendo cuando le indagan sobre algo que sabe.

Evitemos la muerte en suaves cuotas, recordando siempre que estar vivo exige un esfuerzo mucho mayor que el simple hecho de respirar.


Solamente la ardiente paciencia hará que conquistemos una espléndida felicidad


Coldplay - Viva la vida





I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sweep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Catholic choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People could not believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries Wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Catholic choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

(Ooooh Oooh Oooh)

Hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Catholic choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Bloc Party - Flux





If your right hand is causing you pain

Cut it off cut it off
If your colours have started to run
Let them all run, run away from you
There is lightning in this room
Above our heads waiting to strike
Im a thinker not a talker
Put your faith, your faith in God

We were hoping for some romance
All we found was more dispair
We must talk about our problems
We are in a state of Flux

Id kill for an adventure
Just you and I in the Curzon Bar
Dancing till we knew
So all that we've learnt disappeared
When you shouted at me
I saw my father in the second grade
Concerned and kind
But yet unable to reach me

We were hoping for some romance
All we found was more dispair
We must talk about our problems
We are in a State of Flux

State of Flux [x9]

We need to talk [x5]

We were hoping for some romance
All we found was more dispair
We must talk about our problems
We are in a state of Flux

Hold your grandmother's Bible to your breast.
Gonna put it to the test.

You know it to be true,
You know what you gotta do.
They all depend on you.
And you already know.
Yeah, you already know how this will end.

There is no escape,
From the slave-catchers' songs.
For all of the loved ones gone.
Forever's not so long.

They poked a million holes.
But you never lettem show.

Después de llevar meses buscando, he logrado encontrar un nuevo fármaco antidepresivo que me está ayudando a entender mejor las cosas de mi puesto de trabajo y estar mas relajada en el.

Desde que lo tomo parezco otra persona, estoy mas tranquila y no me altero por cualquier cosa, soy capaz de organizarme mejor y no tengo tanto trabajo atrasado, incluso estoy haciendo jornada intensiva.

Este nuevo medicamento ya está disponible en todas las farmacias y se vende sin receta.

Ah¡ se me olvidaba, va de maravilla para la conciliación familiar.


Motion City Soundtrack - Fell in love without you

Acoustic




Last night I fell in love without you.
I waved goodbye to that heart of mine
Eating solo on your lawn

Every aching wound will cauterize and bruise
In memory of what we used to call in love
And only time will tell if violins will swell
In memory of what we used to call in love
Used to call it love

Last night I fell in love without you
The cou de gras that set me off
Would've made for decent fiction

Every aching wound will cauterize and bruise
In memory of what we used to call in love
And only time will tell if violins will swell
In memory of what we used to call in love
Used to call it...

Last night I fell in love without you
The stars at night aren't as big and bright
As you make them out to be

Every aching wound will cauterize and bruise
In memory of what we used to call in love
And only time will tell if violins will swell
In memory of what we used to call in love
In memory of when we used to call it love

Dredg - Bug Eyes

Acoustic version





Bring back those good ol' days

Nothing feels right

Nothing ever goes my way

I threw my future away

Now I walk alone

Out here in the cold

Wandering astray

Where's my future?

I'm gonna need a home

You'd expect the same, now wouldn't you, wouldn't you?


Your journey back to birth its haunting you it's haunting you

Your departure from the earth, its haunting you, it's haunting you


Only those who accept will find that acceptance in return

When you've been trimmed down like hedges,and told just to sit, and wilt, and spit at each other from a distance

With constant resistance from you

Gonna need a home

You'd expect the same now wouldn't you, wouldn't you?


Your journey back to birth is haunting you, it's haunting you

Your departure from the earth is haunting you, it's haunting you


It's been ten years strong, thats much too long

It's time to do something good for my health

Time to do somethin' good for myself

It's been ten years strong, thats much too long

It's time to do something good for my health

Time to do somethin' good for myself

I've wasted all this time, I've wasted all this time


Your journey back to birth is haunting you, it's haunting you

You departure from the earth is haunting you, it's haunting you


Your journey back to birth is haunting you, it's haunting you

Your departure from the earth is haunting you, it's haunting you

Brian Eno - By this river




Here we are stuck by this river

You and I underneath a sky

Thats ever falling down down down

Ever falling down


Through the day as if on an ocean

Waiting here always failing to remember

Why we came came came

I wonder why we came


You talk to me as if from a distance

And I reply with impressions chosen

From another time time time

From another time


Praan

A classic to start with. Love this bangla song (and the video is ok too..)



Bhulbona ar shohojete
Shei praan e mon uthbe mete
Mrittu majhe dhaka ache
je ontohin praan

Bojre tomar baje bashi
She ki shohoj gaan
Shei shurete jagbo ami
(Repeat 3X)

Shei jhor jeno shoi anonde
Chittobinar taare
Shotto-shundu dosh digonto
Nachao je jhonkare!

Bojre tomar baje bashi
She ki shohoj gaan
Shei shurete jagbo am

(English translation)
The same stream of life that runs through my veins night and day
runs through the world and dances in rhythmic measures

It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth
in numberless blades of grassand breaks into tumultuous waves of leaves and flowers

It is the same life that is rocked in the ocean-cradle of birthand of death, in ebb and in flow

I feel my limbs are made glorious by the touch of this world of life
And my pride is from the life-throb of ages dancing in my blood this moment

Welcome


All that is not given, is lost. So here is my small contribution to the everyday routine
