Back to Black - Amy Winehouse

Este es uno de los aclamados trabajos de la malograda cantante y compositora británica de música soul...

Back to Black - Amy Winehouse (Back to Black, 2006)

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...

We only said good-bye 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

Night & Day - Virginia Labuat

Porque cada vez me gusta más, porque mezcla ritmos soul, jazz, rock y blues con frescura y ligereza, porque cada vez que le escucho quiero volver a hacerlo.
Por eso publico a Virginia Maestro, por eso le escucho Con Las Venas Abiertas...


Virginia Labuat - Night & Day

I’m trapped in 
this one odd dream 
this one labyrinth 
this one room with no doors and 
no key 

Desert island 
with no sandman 
I’m the child left behind 

I am lost 
in a dark forest 
I’m being chased by fears, 
troubles and tears 

I feel I’m sinking 
deep in the quicksands 
my lungs are aching 
Gasping for just one more breath to survive 

Then sun rays 
come to my face, 
point out the way 
through a window that leads to 
this raft 

On it standing, 
one rose holding 
Mr. sandman says hi 

I see trees, 
hear baby laughter 
kids racing each other 
quick in the sun 

Riding a mare 
over the hilltops 
I feel the fresh air 
fill my chest with the lost words 
for this song

Stay With Me - Sam Smith


Sam Smith - Stay With Me

Guess it's true
I'm not good 
At a one night stand
But I still need love
Cos I'm just a man
These nights never seem to go to plan
I don't want you to leave
Will you hold my hand

Oh won't you
Stay with me
Cos you're
All I need
This aint love
It's clear to see
But darling
Stay with me

Why am I so emotional?
No it's not a good look
Gain some self control
Deep down I know this never works
But you can lay with me
So it doesn't hurt

Oh won't you
Stay with me
Cos you're
All I need
This aint love
It's clear to see
But darling
Stay with me

Oh won't you
Stay with me
Cos you're
All I need
This aint love
It's clear to see
But darling
Stay with me

Impossible - James Arthur


James Arthur - Impossible

I remember years ago 
Someone told me I should take 
Caution when it comes to love 
I did 

And you were strong and I was not 
My illusion, my mistake 
I was careless, I forgot 
I did 

And now when all is done 
There is nothing to say 
You have gone and so effortlessly 
You have won 
You can go ahead tell them 

Tell them all I know now 
Shout it from the roof tops 
Write it on the sky line 
All we had is gone now 

Tell them I was happy 
And my heart is broken 
All my scars are open 
Tell them what I hoped would be 
Impossible, impossible 
Impossible, impossible 

Falling out of love is hard 
Falling for betrayal is worst 
Broken trust and broken hearts 
I know, I know... 
Thinking all you need is there 
Building faith on love and words 
Empty promises will wear 
I know, I know... 

And now when all is gone 
There is nothing to say 

And if you're done with embarrassing me 
On your own you can go ahead tell them 

Tell them all I know now 
Shout it from the roof tops 
Write it on the sky line 
All we had is gone now 

Tell them I was happy 
And my heart is broken 
All my scars are open 
Tell them what I hoped would be 
Impossible, impossible 
Impossible, impossible 

I remember years ago 
Someone told me I should take 
Caution when it comes to love 
I did 

Tell them all I know now 
Shout it from the roof tops 
Write it on the sky line 
All we had is gone now 

Tell them I was happy 
And my heart is broken 
All my scars are open 
Tell them what I hoped would be 
Impossible, impossible 
Impossible, impossible 
Impossible, impossible 
Impossible, impossible

All of me - John Legend

All of me o como una canción te escalofría la tripa, te araña el corazón y engulle tu mente hasta el punto de hacerte viajar al sitio que nunca estuviste y deseaste ir. Genial.


John Legend - All of me
What would I do 
Without your smart mouth drawing me in
And you kicking me out
I got my head spinning
No kidding, I can't pin you down
What's going on in that beautiful mind
I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me
But I'll be alright
My head's underwater
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind
Because all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
Because I give you all of me
And you give me all of you
How many times do I have to tell you
Even when you're crying you're beautiful too
The world is beating you down
I'm around through every mood
You're my downfall, you're my muse
My worst distraction, my Rhythm & Blues
I can't stop singing
It's ringing in my head for you
My head's underwater
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind
Because all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
Because I give you all of me
And you give me all of you
Give me all of you
Cards on the table
We're both showing hearts
Risking it all though it's hard
Because all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
Because I give you all of me
And you give me all of you
I give you all of me
And you give me all of you

Listen - Beyonce


Beyonce - Listen (I am... Tour, 2010)

Listen to the song here in my heart
 a melody I start but can't complete
 Listen to the sound from deep within
 Its only beginning to find release
 Ohh the time has come for my dreams to be heard
 They will not be pushed aside and turned
 Into your own, all 'cause you won't listen
 [chorus]
 Listen
 I am alone at a crossroads
 I'm not at home in my own home
 And I've tried and tried
 To say whats on my mind
 You should have known
 Now I'm done believing you
 You don't know what I'm feeling
 I'm more than what
 You've made of me
 I followed the voice, you gave to me
 But now I've gotta find my own
 You should have listened
 There was someone here inside
 Someone I thought had died
 So long ago
 Oh I'm screaming out
 And my dreams will be heard
 They will not be pushed Aside or turned
 Into your own
  All 'cause you won't listen
 [chorus]
 Listen
 I am alone at a crossroads
 I'm not at home in my own home
 And I've tried and tried
 To say whats on my mind
 You should have known
 Now I'm done believing you
 You don't know what I'm feeling
 I'm more than what
 You've made of me
 I followed the voice, you gave to me
 But now I've gotta find my own
 You should have listened
 I don't know where I belong
 But I'll be moving on
 If you don't, if you won't
 Listen to the song here in my heart
 A melody I start, but I will complete
 Now I am done believing you
 You don't know not what I am feeling
 I'm more than what you've made of me
 I followed the voice you think you gave to me
 But now I got to find my own - my own

Ain't no sunshine - Bill Withers

Aunque Michael Jackson y los Jackson Five dieron a esta canción la repercusión mediatica que le corresponde, a principios de los 70 Bill Withers le hacia sonar en todas las cadenas de radio norteamericanas...

Bill Withers - Ain't no sunshine

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone.
It's not warm when she's away.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long anytime she goes away.
Wonder this time where she's gone,
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home anytime she goes away.
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
Hey, I ought to leave the young thing alone,
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone, only darkness everyday.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
And this house just ain't no home anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.

Baby, Can I hold you? - Tracy Chapman


Tracy Chapman - Baby, Can I hold you?

Sorry
 Is all that you can't say
 Years gone by and still
 Words don't come easily
 Like sorry like sorry
 Forgive me
 Is all that you can't say
 Years gone by and still
 Words don't come easily
 Like forgive me forgive me
 But you can say baby
 Baby can I hold you tonight
 Maybe if I told you the right words
 At the right time you'd be mine
 I love you
 Is all that you can't say
 Years gone by and still
 Words don't come easily
 Like I love you I love you

My funny Valentine - Ella Fitzgerald

Ella FitzGerald pasa por ser una de las artistas imprescindibles de la música soul ...


Ella FitzGerald - My funny Valentine

Behold the way our fine feathered friend,
His virtue doth parade
Thou knowest not, my dim-witted friend
The picture thou hast made
Thy vacant brow, and thy tousled hair
Conceal thy good intent
Thou noble upright truthful sincere,
And slightly dopey gent
You're my funny valentine,
Sweet comic valentine,
You make me smile with my heart.
Your looks are laughable, un-photographable,
Yet, you're my favorite work of art.
Is your figure less than greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak, are you smart?
But, don't change a hair for me.
Not if you care for me.
Stay little valentine, stay!
Each day is valentine's day
Is your figure less than greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak, are you smart?
But, don't change a hair for me.
Not if you care for me.
Stay little valentine, stay!
Each day is valentine's day

Come fly with me - Frank Sinatra

Le apodaban La Voz y nos ofrece este maravilloso tema ...


Frank Sinatra - Come fly with me

Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away
 If you can use some exotic booze
 There's a bar in far Bombay
 Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away
 Come fly with me, let's float down to Peru
 In llama-land there's a one-man band
 And he'll toot his flute for you
 Come fly with me, let's take off in the blue
 Once I get you up there
 Where the air is rarefied
 We'll just glide
 Starry-eyed
 Once I get you up there
 I'll be holding you so near
 You may hear
 Angels cheer, 'cause we're together

 Weather-wise, it's such a lovely day
 Just say the words and we'll beat the birds
 Back to Acapulco Bay
 It is perfect for a flying honeymoon, they say
 Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away
 Once I get you up there
 Where the air is rarefied
 We'll just glide
 Starry-eyed
 Once I get you up there
 I'll be holding you so near
 You may hear
 Angels cheer, 'cause we're together
 Weather-wise, it's such a lovely day
 If you say the word, we will beat those birds
 Back to Acapulco Bay
 It is perfect for a flying honeymoon, they say
 Come fly with me, let's fly--
 Pack up, let's fly away

What am I to you - Norah Jones


Norah Jones - What Am I to You (Feels Like Home, 2004)

What am I to you
 Tell me darling true
 To me you are the sea
 Fast as you can be
 And deep the shade of blue
 When you're feeling low
 To whom else do you go
 See I cry if you hurt
 I'd give you my last shirt
 Because I love you so
 If my sky should fall
 Would you even call
 Opened up my heart
 I never want to part
 I'm giving you the ball
 When I look in your eyes
 I can feel the butterflies
 I love you when you're blue
 Tell me darlin' true
 What am I to you
 Yeah well if my sky should fall
 Would you even call
 Opened up my heart
 Never wanna part
 I'm giving you the ball
 When I look in your eyes
 I can feel the butterflies
 Could you find a love in me
 Could you carve me in a tree
 Don't fill my heart with lies
 I will you love when you're blue
 Tell me darlin' true
 What am I to you
 What am I to you
 What am I to you.
What Am I To You , What Am I To You

Sunrise - Norah Jones

La esplendida Norah Jones con su inconfundible música...


Norah Jones - Sunrise (Feels Like Home, 2004)

Sunrise, sunrise
 Looks like mornin' in your eyes
 But the clocks held 9:15 for hours
 Sunrise, sunrise
 Couldn't tempt us if it tried
 'Cause the afternoon's already come and gone
 And I said hoo...
 To you
 Surprise, surprise
 Couldn't find it in your eyes
 But I'm sure it's written all over my face
 Surprise, surprise
 There was something I could hide
 When I see we made it through another day
 And I said hoo...
 To you
 Now good night
 Throw its cover down
 On me again
 Ooh and if I'm right
 It's the only way
 To bring me back
 Hoo...
 To you
 Hoo...
Sunrise , Sunrise

Cosmic Love - Florence and the Machine


Florence and the Machine - Cosmic Love (Live on KEXP)

A falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eyes
I screamed aloud, as it tore through them, and now it's left me blind
The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart
And in the dark, I can hear your heartbeat
I tried to find the sound
But then it stopped, and I was in the darkness,
So darkness I became
The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart

I took the stars from our eyes, and then I made a map
And knew that somehow I could find my way back
Then I heard your heart beating, you were in the darkness too
So I stayed in the darkness with you


The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart



A falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eyes
I screamed aloud, as it tore through them, and now it's left me blind

Stay - Rihanna ft. Mikky Ekko


Rihanna ft. Mikky Ekko - Stay (Unapologetic, 2013)

All along it was a fever
A cold with high-headed believers
I threw my hands in the air I said show me something
He said, if you dare come a little closer
Round and around and around and around we go
Oh, now tell me now tell me now tell me now you know
Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay
[Mikky Ekko]
It's not much of a life you're living
It's not just something you take, it's given
Round and around and around and around we go
Oh, now tell me now tell me now tell me now you know
Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay
[Rihanna & Mikky Ekko]
Oh, the reason I hold on
Oh, cause I need this hole gone
Funny how you're the broken ones
But I'm the only one who needed saving
Cause when you never see the lights
It's hard to know which one of us is caving
Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay, stay
I want you to stay, oh

Dream man - Virginia Labuat


Virginia Labuat - Dream Man (Drean Man, 2013)

When dawn shines through the window on my bed,
 when driving down the hillside,
 air so fresh,
 when walking through the park
 when watching birds fly by

He could be that one singing
 Only you
 he could be that one reading
 Much ado
 he could be looking too
 he could maybe be you

Always dream, dream, dream
 that today may be
 when I meet the sweetest man that’s meant for me

My eyes beam good vibrations
 as they smile
 my face light up with gladness
 at your sight
 It’s true that life can be
 so kind for those who smile

No One - Alicia Keys



Alicia Keys - No One (As I am, 2007)

I just want you close
 Where you can stay forever
 You can be sure
 That it will only get better
 You and me together
 Through the days and nights
 I don’t worry cuz
 Everythings gonna be alright
 People keep talking
 They can say what they like
 But all I know is everything’s gonna be alright

No one no one no one
 Can get in the way of what I’m feeling
 No one no one no one
 Can get in the way of what I feel for you
 You you
 Can get in the way of what I feel for you

When the rain is pouring down
 And my heart is hurting
 You will always be around
 This I know for certain

You and me together
 Through the days and nights
 I don’t worry cuz
 Everythings gonna be alright
 People keep talking
 They can say what they like
 But all I know is everything’s gonna be alright

No one no one no one
 Can get in the way of what I’m feeling
 No one no one no one
 Can get in the way of what I feel for you
 You you
 Can get in the way of what I feel for you

I know some people search the world
 To find something like what we have
 I know people will try
 Try to divide
 Something so real
 So till the end of time
 I’m telling you that

No one no one no one
 Can get in the way of what I’m feeling
 No one no one no one
 Can get in the way of what I feel for you
 oh oh oh …

Rolling in the deep - Adele


Adele - Rolling in the deep (21, 2011)

There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch,
it's bringing me out the dark
Finally I can see you crystal clear
Go head and sell me out
and I'll lay your shit bare
See how I leave with every piece of you
Don't underestimate the things that I will do
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch
And its bring me out the dark
The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
And you played it
To the beat
Baby I have no story to be told
But I've heard one of you
And I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Making a home down there
It Reminds you of the home we shared
The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
And you played it
To the beat
Throw your soul through every open door
Count your blessings to find what you look for
Turned my sorrow into treasured gold
You pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow
We could have had it all
We could have had it all
It all, it all it all,
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
And you played it
To the beat

Someone like you - Adele


Adele - Someone like you (Someone like you, 2011)

I heard that you're settled down,
That you found a girl and you're married now,
I heard that your dreams came true,
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you,
Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light,
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it,
I had hoped you'd see my face,
And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over,
Never mind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you, too,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead,"
Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead, yeah,
You know how the time flies,
Only yesterday was the time of our lives,
We were born and raised in a summer haze,
Bound by the surprise of our glory days,
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it,
I had hoped you'd see my face,
And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over,
Never mind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you, too,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead,"
Nothing compares,
No worries or cares,
Regrets and mistakes, they're memories made,
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?
Nevermind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead,"
Nevermind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you, too,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead,"
Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead.
