Florence and The Machine - You've got the love. Torna-se difícil escolher apenas uma - adoro todas as músicas do álbum Lungs. Porque gosto da sonoridade, da energia. E gosto de ouvir em qualquer altura.
Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air I know I can count on you Sometimes I feel like saying "Lord I just don't care" But you've got the love I need To see me through
No walls can keep me protected,
No sleet - nothing between me and the rain.
And you can't save me now, I'm in the grip of a hurricane.
I'm going to blow myself away
I'm going out, I'm going to drink myself to death
And in the crowd I see you with someone else
I brace myself 'cause I know it's going to hurt
But I like to think at least things can't get any worse
No home, don't want shelter
No calm, nothing to keep me from the storm
And you can't hold me down, 'cause I belong to the hurricane
It's going to blow this all away
I'm going out, I'm going to drink myself to death
And in the crowd I see you with someone else
I brace myself 'cause I know it's going to hurt
But I like to think at least things can't get any worse
I hope that you see me, 'cause I'm staring at you
But when you look over, you look right through
Then you lean and kiss her on the head
And I never felt so alive and so dead
Enquanto voava pelo alcatrão negro, Florence and The Machine a tocar nas alturas. Creio ter descoberto uma correlação (co-relação?) entre este som e a resposta do motor do carro. Ou do meu pé sobre o acelerador.
Esperem: o Vinho do Porto. Talvez seja uma variável a considerar.Talvez.
... fabuloso. A música, a letra... os coros, os arranjos... coloco-a aqui, para nos deliciarmos com cada pormenor... cada detalhe. E para voltarmos a ouvir... a sentir.
Encontrei esta música - ou encontrou-me ela a mim - ontem à noite, num blogue que já seguia mesmo antes de ter conta no blogger... um blogue cheio de personalidade, tal como a dona, e bom gosto: Vinte e Um Gramas. São estes blogues que sustêm a blogosfera. Disso tenho agora a certeza.
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
