coldplay – as preferidas

Um post em homenagem à banda de rock britânico Coldplay.

Colocarei aqui as minhas músicas favoritas…Antes de mais nada, vale a pena lembrar que esse termo “música” está sendo empregado de maneira errada. Na verdade, o correto seria canções, pois canção inclui letra + melodia.

Assim como ocorre no inglês, song, e não music, e a letra como lyric.

Bom, depois desse desvio de assunto, vamos ao que interessa:

The scientist

The scientist é uma das minhas preferidas, principalmente por causa da letra. Um dos trechos de que mais gosto é “tell me your secrets and ask me your questions“.

The Scientist

Coldplay

Composição: Berryman/Buckland/Champion/Martin

Come up to meet you, Tell you I’m sorry
You don’t know how lovely you are
I had to find you, Tell you I need you
And tell you I set you apart
Tell me your secrets, And ask me your questions
Oh let’s go back to the start

Running in circles, coming tails
Heads on a silence apart

Nobody said it was easy
It’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh take me back to the start

I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling the puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
And tell me you love me, Come back and hold me
Oh and I rush to the start

Running in circles, Chasing tails
Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy
Oh it’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I’m going back to the start

Aah oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh (x4)

 

Clocks

Coldplay

Composição: Chris Martin / Guy Berryman / Jon Buckland / Will Champion

The lights go out and I can’t be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
Brought me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead – Singing
come out of the things unsaid
Shoot an apple off my head – And a
trouble that can’t be named
A tiger’s waiting to be tamed – Singing

You are
You are

Confusion that never stops
The closing walls and ticking clocks – Gonna
come back and take you home
I could not stop that you now know – Singing
come out upon my seas
Cursed missed opportunities – Am I
a part of the cure
Or am I part of the disease – Singing

You are
You are
You are
You are

And nothing else compares
Oh no nothing else compares
And nothing else compares

Home, home, where I wanted to go (4x)

A versão da música que eu postei, é a do colplay junto com o rhythms del mundo, que resultou numa combinação perfeita, na minha modesta opinião.

Yellow

Coldplay

Composição: Indisponível

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah, they were all yellow.

I came along,
I wrote a song for you,
And all the things you do,

And it was called Yellow.

So then I took my turn,
Oh what a thing you’ve done,
And it was all Yellow.

Your skin
Oh yeah, your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
Do you know?
You know I love you so,
You know I love you so.

I swam across,
I jumped across for you,
Oh what a thing to do.
‘Cos you were all yellow,

I drew a line,
I drew a line for you,
Oh what a thing to do,
And it was all yellow.

Your skin,
Oh yeah your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
Do you know?
For you I’d bleed myself dry,
For you I’d bleed myself dry.

It’s true, look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for…
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine…

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And all the things that you do.
