HIM regresa, esta vez con el segundo corte de su nuevo álbum, el cual se llama “Scared To Death”.

La letra de esta canción es:

In the biblical sense and sensibility
let me know you
I’ll kiss that smile off your face
just say when

I’m not afraid to say ‘I love you’
any more than I used to be, babe
I am scared to death, I am scared to death
to fall in love

All these people blast from hell
ice break is infernal
from a heart so black and blue
only for you

(just say when, again)

I’m not afraid to say ‘I love you’
any more than I used to be, babe
I am scared to death, I am scared to death
to fall in love
with you

I’m not afraid to say ‘I love you’
any more than I used to be, babe
I am scared to death, I am scared to death
to fall in love

I’m not afraid to admit I adore you
any more than I was before, babe
I am scared to death, I am scared to death
to fall in love
with you

with you…

scared to death…

I’m scared to death..

And you’re sweet like poison…

Seether, una banda de rock, revive este clásico de George Michael llamado “Careless Whisper”, en una versión más pesada y llena de rock, canción que pueden encontrar en el álbum “Finding Beauty In Negative Spaces”.

La letra de esta canción es:

I Feel So Unsure
As i take your hand
And lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies
Something in your eyes
Calls to mind a silver screen
And all its sad goodbyes

[Chorus]

I’m never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it’s easy to pretend
I know you’re not a fool
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
And waste a chance that i’ve been given
So i’m never gonna dance again
The way i danced with you

Time can never mend
The careless whisper of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There’s no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you’ll find

[Chorus]

Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it’s better this way
We’d hurt each other with the things we want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But now who’s gonna dance with me
Please stay

[Chorus]

Now that you’ve gone
Now that you’ve gone
Now that you’ve gone
Was what i did so wrong
So wrong that you had to leave me alone.

The Who es una de las bandas de rock más significativas de la historia y esta es su canción Won’t Get Fooled Again, una canción llena de energía y libertad.

La letra de esta canción es:

We'll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgement of all wrong
They decide and the shotgun sings the song 

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again 

(small instrumental)

The change, it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fold, that's all
And the world looks just the same
And history ain't changed
'Cause the banners, they are flown in the next war 

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
No, no! 

(instrumental)

I'll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
Though I know that the hypnotized never lie
Do ya? 

(instrumental)

There's nothing in the streets
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Is now parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight 

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no! 

(instrumental)

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! 

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss

The Offspring, una banda muy exitosa en los 90s nos muestra una de sus canciones más conocidas llamada “Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)” una canción muy irónica que salió en el 98.

La letra de esta canción:

Give it to me baby, uh huh, uh huh
Give it to me baby, uh huh, uh huh
Give it to me baby, uh huh, uh huh
And all the girlies say I’m pretty fly for a white guy
Uno dos tres cuatro cinco cinco se�s
You know its kinda hard just to get along today
Our subject isn’t cool, but he thinks it anyway
He may not have a clue, and he may not have style
But everything he lacks, well he makes up in denial
So don’t deflate, play it straight
You know he really doesn’t get it anyway
Gonna play the field, keep it real
For you know a way, for you know a way
So if you don’t break, just over compensate
At least you know you can always go on Ricki Lake
The world needs wannabees
Hey, hey, do the brand new thing!
Give it to me baby, uh huh, uh huh
Give it to me baby, uh huh, uh huh
Give it to me baby, uh huh, uh huh
And all the girlies say I’m pretty fly for a white guy
He needs some cool tunes, not just any will suffice
But they didn’t have Ice Cube so he bought Vanilla Ice
Now cruising in his Pinto, he sees homies as he pass
But if he looks twice, they’re gonna kick his lilly ass!
So don’t deflate, play it straight
You know he really doesn’t get it anyway
Gonna play the field, keep it real
For you know a way, for you know a way
So if you don’t break, just over compensate
At least you know you can always go on Ricky Lake
The world loves wannabes
Hey, hey, do the trendy thing!
Now he’s getting a tattoo yeah, he’s getting ink done
He asks for a 13, but they drew a 31
Friends say he’s trying too hard and he’s not quite hip
But in his own mind he’s the, he’s the dopest trick
Give it to me baby, uh huh, uh huh
Give it to me baby, uh huh, uh huh
Give it to me baby, uh huh, uh huh
And all the girlies say I’m pretty fly for a white guy
Uno dos tres cuatro cinco cinco seís
So don’t deflate, play it straight
You know he really doesn’t get it anyway
Gonna play the field, keep it real
For you know a way, for you know a way
So if you don’t break, just over compensate
At least you know you can always go on Ricky Lake
The world needs wannabes
The world loves Wannabes
Let’s get some more wannabes
Hey, hey, do the brand new thing!

Hoy recordamos a Guns N’ Roses, una de las más significativas bandas de rock de la historia, con su canción November Rain, la cual formó parte del disco “Use Your Illusion I”.

La letra de este clásico es:

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same

Nothing lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain

We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain

But lovers always come and lovers always go
An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today
Walking away

If we could take the time
to lay it on the line
I could rest my head
Just knowin' that you were mine
All mine
So if you want to love me
then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin'
In the cold November rain

Do you need some time...on your own
Do you need some time...all alone
Everybody needs some time...
on their own
Don't you know you need some time...all alone

I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you

Sometimes I need some time...on my
own
Sometimes I need some time...all alone
Everybody needs some time...
on their own
Don't you know you need some time...all alone

And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain
I know that you can love me
When there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness
We still can find a way
Nothing lasts forever (changed from 'Cause nothin')
Even cold November rain

Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Este es el video de la más reciente canción de uno de los más interesantes grupos de rock de Estados Unidos: Linkin Park.

Esta canción lleva el nombre de “New Divide” y el video fue grabado en el set donde se grabó la película “Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen”.

La letra de esta canción es:

I remember black skies, the lightning all around me
I remembered each flash as time began to blur
Like a startling sign that fate had finally found me
and your voice was all I heard, that I get what I deserve

So give me reason to prove me wrong, to wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Give me reason to fill this hole, connect the space between
Let it fill up to reach the truth and lies, across this new divide

There was nothing insight, the memory's left abandoned
There was no where to hide, the ashes fell like snow
and the ground caved in between where we were standing
and your voice was all I heard, that I get what I deserve

So give me reason to prove me wrong, to wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes, across this new divide

(Instrumental)

In every loss, in every lie,
In every truth that you deny,
and each regret and each goodbye were some mistakes you pray to hide
and your voice was all I heard, that I get what I deserve

So give me reason to prove me wrong, to wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Give me reason to fill this hole, connect the space between
Let it fill up to reach the truth and lies, across this new divide

Across this new divide
Across this new divide

Esta es una de las canciones que considero más interesantes de este artista argentino. Crimen forma parte del disco que salió en el 2006 llamado “Ahí Vamos” de Gustavo Cerati.

La letra de esta canción es:

La espera me agotó
no se nada de vos
dejaste tanto en mí
En llamas me acosté
y en un lento degradé
supe que te perdí

¿Qué otra cosa puedo hacer?
si no olvido, moriré
y otro crimen quedará
otro crimen quedará
sin resolver

Una rápida traición
y salimos del amor
tal vez me lo busqué.

Mi ego va a estallar
ahí donde no estás
oh… los celos otra vez

¿Qué otra cosa puedo hacer?
si no olvido moriré
y otro crimen quedará
otro crimen quedará
sin resolver.

No lo sé
cuanto falta no lo sé
si es muy tarde no lo sé
si no olvido, moriré
que otra cosa puedo hacer?
que otra cosa puedo hacer?

Ahora sé lo que es perder

Otro crimen quedará
otro crimen quedará
sin resolver

Este es el videode la canción “Honey This Mirror Isn’t Big Enough For The Two Of Us” de la banda de rock norteamericana My Chemical Romance. Este video es una analogía a una película del director japones Takashi Miike llamada “La Audición” y forma parte de su primer disco llamado “I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love”.

La letra de esta canción es:

The amount of pills I'm taking
Counteracts the booze I'm drinking,
And this vanity I'm breaking
Lets me live my life like this,
And well I find it hard to stay
With the words you say.
Oh baby let me in,
Oh baby let me in.

Well I'll choose the life I've taken,
Never mind the friends I'm making,
And the beauty that I'm faking
Lets me live my life like this.
And well I find it hard to stay with the words you say.
Oh baby let me in,
Oh baby let me in.
And you can cry all you want to, I don't care how much.

You'll invest yourself in me.
We're not working out. (We're not working out.)
We're not working out. (We're not working out.)
And you can't touch my brother,
And you can't keep my friends,
We're not working out,
And we're not working out this time I mean it,
Never mind the times I've seen it.

Well I hope I'm not mistaken
By the news I heard from waking.
And it's hard to say I'm shaken
By the choices that I make.
Well I find it hard to stay, with the words you say.
Oh baby let me in,
Oh baby let me in.

Well I'll choose this life I've taken,
Never mind the friends I'm making.
And I get a little shaken,
Because I live my life like this.
And well I find it hard to stay, with the words you say.
Oh baby let me in,
Oh baby let me in.
And you can cry all you want to I don't care how much you'll invest yourself in me.

We're not working out.
We're not working out.
And you can't keep my brother,
And you won't fuck my friends.
And we're not working out,
We're not working out this time I mean it,
Never mind the times I've seen it.

Never again, never again.
(You can cry all you want to I don't care how much you'll invest yourself in me.)
Oh baby let me in,
I'm knocking let me in.

Esta es la más reciente canción de la banda de punk de Estados Unidos Green Day, la cual se llama “21 Guns” la cual mezcla una balada rock muy agradable.

Esta canción forma parte de su más reciente álbum llamado 21st Century Breakdown. La letra de esta canción es:

Do you know what's worth fighting for
When it's not worth dying for?
Does it take your breath away
And you feel yourself suffocating?
Does the pain weigh out the pride
And you look for a place to hide?
Did someone break your heart inside?
You're in ruins 

One, 21 guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 guns
Throw up your arms into the sky,
You and I 

When you're at the end of the road
And you lost all sense of control
And your thoughts have taken their toll
When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul
Your faith walks on broken glass
And the hangover doesn't pass
Nothing's ever built to last
You're in ruins 

One, 21 guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 guns
Throw up your arms into the sky,
You and I 

Did you try to live on your own
When you burned down the house and home?
Did you stand too close to the fire
Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone?

When it's time to live and let die
And you can't get another try
Something inside this heart has died
You're in ruins 

One, 21 guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 guns
Throw up your arms into the sky 

One, 21 guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 guns
Throw up your arms into the sky,
You and I
