Canciones que ponen los pelos de punta

Dr_Escroto · 4 Nov 2007

Por alguna extraña razón, hay canciones que cada vez que las oímos, se nos erizan los pelos y nos sobrecoge un escalofrío, esa canción te ha dado una hostia a las EMOciones y, si no fuera porque somos muy machos, hasta se nos humedecerían los ojos de la absoluta grandeza de la canción.

Sólo con unas pocas canciones pasa eso, sólo unas pocas elegidas logran transmitir tanto.

A mí me tocan (y no precisamente los cojones) las siguientes canciones:

Johnny Cash-Hurt

El original de Nine Inch Nails es muy grande, pero esta versión de un veterano Johnny Cash arroja aún más significado sobre la canción, con esa voz cascada, símbolo de los años, de haber vivido mucho y, de saber de lo que habla, de la vida. De echar una mirada atrás y plantearse si todo ha merecido la pena.

I hurt myself today
to see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
the only thing that's real
the needle tears a hole
the old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
but I remember everything
what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
and you could have it all
my empire of dirt

I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of thorns
upon my liar's chair
full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
beneath the stains of time
the feelings disappear
you are someone else
I am still right here

what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
and you could have it all
my empire of dirt

I will let you down
I will make you hurt

if I could start again
a million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

The doors-The end

Si sucediese el fin del mundo, esta tendría que ser la última canción que sonase en todas las radios antes de que todo se fuera a tomar por culo.

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end

Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
Ill never look into your eyes...again

Can you picture what will be
So limitless and free
Desperately in need...of some...strangers hand
In a...desperate land

Lost in a roman...wilderness of pain
And all the children are insane
All the children are insane
Waiting for the summer rain, yeah

Theres danger on the edge of town
Ride the kings highway, baby
Weird scenes inside the gold mine
Ride the highway west, baby

Ride the snake, ride the snake
To the lake, the ancient lake, baby
The snake is long, seven miles
Ride the snake...hes old, and his skin is cold

The west is the best
The west is the best
Get here, and well do the rest

The blue bus is callin us
The blue bus is callin us
Driver, where you taken us

The killer awoke before dawn, he put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall
He went into the room where his sister lived, and...then he
Paid a visit to his brother, and then he
He walked on down the hall, and
And he came to a door...and he looked inside
Father, yes son, I want to kill you
Mother...i want to...fuck you

Cmon baby, take a chance with us
Cmon baby, take a chance with us
Cmon baby, take a chance with us
And meet me at the back of the blue bus
Doin a blue rock
On a blue bus
Doin a blue rock
Cmon, yeah

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end

It hurts to set you free
But youll never follow me
The end of laughter and soft lies
The end of nights we tried to die

Marilyn Manson-The last day on earth

Y esta tendría que ser la penúltima. :lol:

Yesterday was a million years ago,
In all my past lives I played an asshole,
Now I found you, it's almost too late,
And this earth seems obliviating.

We are trembling in our crutches,
High and dead our skin is glass.
I'm so empty here without you...
I crack my xerox hands.

I know it's the last day on Earth,
We'll be together while the planet dies.
I know it's the last day on Earth,
We'll never say goodbye.

And the dogs slaughter each other softly,
Love burns it's casualties,
We are damaged provider modules,
Spill the seeds at our children's feet.
I'm so empty here without you...
I know they want me dead.

I know it's the last day on Earth,
We'll be together while the planet dies.
I know it's the last day on Earth,
We'll never say goodbye.

I know it's the last day on Earth,
We'll be together while the planet dies.
I know it's the last day on Earth,
We'll never say goodbye.

I know it's the last day on Earth,
We'll be together while the planet dies.
I know it's the last day on Earth,
We'll never say goodbye.
We'll never say goodbye.
We'll never say goodbye...

Urge Overkill-Girl you´ll be a woman soon

La perdida de la inocencia (y de otra cosa), la seducción, la protección del hombre hacia la mujer amada. Ninguna otra canción transmite tan cojonudamente estos temas. Y en Pulp Fiction queda además de putifa. :lol:

Love you so much
Can't count all the ways
I'd die for you girl
And all they can say is
"He's not your kind"

They never get tired
Of puttin' me down
And I never know
When I come around
What I'm gonna find
Don't let them make up your mind

Don't you know
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Please, come take my hand
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Soon you'll need a man

I've been misunderstood
For all of my life
But what they're sayin',
Girl, just cuts like a knife
"The boy's no good"

Well, I finally found
What I've been looking for
But if they get the chance,
They'll end it for sure
Sure they would
Baby, I've done all I could

It's up to you
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Please, come take my hand
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Soon you'll need a man
Soon you'll need a man.....

Joan Osborne-What if God was one of us

Probablemente si Jesus regresase a la tierra con un mensaje, acabaría en la TV entrevistado por Cárdenas. Sería uno más, viajaría en el metro rodeado de sobacos sudacas volviendo del curro cansado a casa. Gran reflexión la de esta canción. Me encanta eso de que nadie le llamaría, excepto el Papa de Roma.

If God had a name what would it be?
And would you call it to his face?
If you were faced with him
In all his glory
What would you ask if you had just one question?

And yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah

What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home

If God had a face what would it look like?
And would you want to see
If seeing meant that
you would have to believe
in things like heaven and in Jesus and the saints
and all the prophets

Trying to make his way home
Back up to heaven all alone
Nobody calling on the phone
'cept for the Pope maybe in Rome

Just trying to make his way home
Like a holy rolling stone
Back up to heaven all alone
Just trying to make his way home
Nobody calling on the phone
'cept for the Pope maybe in Rome

Steppenwolf-Born to be wild

La libertad, las ganas de vivir la aventura, escuchando esta canción dan ganas de dejar todo e irse por ahí de viaje al quinto coño de la Bernarda, sin mirar atrás ni adelante, simplemente disfrutando el momento. (Canción oficial del Subforo Viajes)

Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
Lookin' for adventure
And whatever comes our way
Yeah Darlin' go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space

I like smoke and lightning
Heavy metal thunder
Racin' with the wind
And the feelin' that I'm under
Yeah Darlin' go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space

Like a true nature's child
We were born, born to be wild
We can climb so high
I never wanna die

Born to be wild
Born to be wild

Buen gusto, Doc.

The unforgettable fire - U2
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yiNqwEAtpk

Ice
Your only rivers run cold
These city lights
They shine as silver and gold
Dug from the night
Your eyes as black as coal
Walk on by
Walk on through
Walk 'til you run
And don't look back
For here I am

Carnival
The wheels fly and the colors spin
Through alcohol,
Red wine that punctures the skin
Face to face
In a dry and waterless place

Walk on by
Walk on through
So sad to beseige your love so head on
Stay in this time
Stay tonight in a lie
I'm only asking but I
I think you know
Come on take me away
Come on take me away
Come on take me home
Home again

And if the mountain should crumble
Or disappear into the sea
Not a tear, no not I
Stay in this time
Stay tonight in a lie
Ever after
This love in time
And if you save your love
Save it all

Don't push me too far
Don't push me too far
Tonight
Tonight

Baker Street - Gerry Gafferty

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3x8DREDeLVw

Windin' your way down on Baker Street
Light in your head and dead on your feet
Well another crazy day
You'll drink the night away
And forget about everything
This city desert makes you feel so cold.
It's got so many people but it's got no soul
And it's taking you so long
To find out you were wrong
When you thought it had everything

You used to think that it was so easy
You used to say that it was so easy
But you're tryin'
You're tryin' now
Another year and then you'll be happy
Just one more year and then you'll be happy
But you're cryin'
You're cryin' now

Way down the street there's a lad in his place
He opens the door he's got that look on his face
And he asks you where you've been
You tell him who you've seen
And you talk about anything

He's got this dream about buyin' some land
He's gonna give up the booze and the one night stands
And then he'll settle down there's a quiet little town
And forget about everything

But you know he'll always keep movin'
You know he's never gonna stop movin
Cus he's rollin'
He's the rollin' stone

And when you wake up it's a new mornin'
The sun is shinin' it's a new morning
You're goin'
You're goin' home.

Hurt de Johnny Cash me pone los pelos de punta (Escroto, reconoce que te has echado alguna lagrimilla viendo el vídeo :oops:

).

Además del tito Cash, otro que hace que se me ericen los vellos es Jeff Buckley, especialmente con:

Jeff Buckley - Lover, You Should've Come Over

Looking out the door
I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations
As their shoes fill up with water

And maybe I'm too young
To keep good love from going wrong
But tonight, you're on my mind so
you never know

Broken down and hungry for your love
With no way to feed it
Where are you tonight?
Child, you know how much I need it.
Too young to hold on
And too old to just break free and run

Sometimes a man gets carried away,
When he feels like he should be having his fun
Much too blind to see the damage he's done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that, really,
He has no-one...

So I'll wait for you... And I'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return,
Oh, will I ever learn?
Oh, Lover, you should've come over
Cause it's not too late.

Lonely is the room the bed is made
The open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one
Who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep
That won't ever come
It's never over,
My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It's never over, all my riches for her smiles
when I slept so soft against her...
It's never over,
All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
It's never over, she's the tear
That hangs inside my soul forever

Oh, but maybe I'm just too young to keep good love
From going wrong
Oh... lover you should've come over...

Yes, (I) feel too young to hold on
I'm much too old to break free and run
Too deaf, dumb, and blind
To see the damage I've done
Sweet lover, you should've come over
Oh, love I'm waiting for you
Lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late.

Y con:

Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah

Well I heard there was a secret chord
that David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya?
Well it goes like this:
The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
And She tied you to her kitchen chair
And She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

Well Baby I've been here before
I´ve seen this room, and I've walked this floor,
You know, I used to live alone before I knew you
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
And Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

Well there was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me do ya
But remember when I moved in you
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

Maybe there is a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at somebody who outdrew ya
And it's not a cry that you can hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

https://es.youtube.com/watch?v=AratTMGrHaQ (no sé si deja insertar el vídeo)

Y otra que me pone los pelos de punta es:

Antony And The Johnsons - Soft Black Stars

Little children snuggle under soft black stars
And if you look into their eyes soft black stars
Deliver them from the book and the letter and the word
And let them read the silence bathed in soft black stars
Let them trace the raindrops under soft black stars
Let them follow whispers and scare away the night
Let them kiss the featherbreath of soft black stars
And let them ride their horses licked by the wind and the snow
And tip-toe into twilight where we all one day will go
Caressed with tenderness and with no fear at all
Their faces shining river gold brushed by soft black stars
And angels' wings shall soothe their cares
And all the birds shall sing at dawn
Blessed and wet with joy
You and i will meet one day
Under the night sky lit by soft black stars

Creep - Radiohead
When you were here before,
Couldn't look you in your eye
You're just like an angel,
Your skin makes me cry

You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fucking special

But I'm a creep,
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts,
I wanna have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul

I want you to notice
when I'm not around
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here, ohhhh, ohhhh

She's running out again
She's running out
She run run run run...
run...

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep,
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here

I don't belong here...

Clark Gable · 5 Nov 2007

Los Planetas - La copa de Europa. Terrible, estremecedora, de lo mejor de Los Planetas, devastación en estado puro.

Ahora pienso que no merece la pena,
arriesgarme traerá más problemas.
Así que elijo
lo que tengo más cerca.
Por lo menos tendré la certeza
de que existo,
de que puedo decidir,
de que elijo por mí,
sólo por mí.

En vez de aceptar lo que viene de fuera,
en lugar de contar lo que queda,
desde ahora hasta el día en que me muera
por lo menos cabrá la sorpresa.
Algo nuevo,
algo aún por descubrir,
algo dentro de mí,
dentro de mí.

Cuánto tiempo he perdido ahí afuera,
cuanto por descubrir en mi cabeza.
Es tan vasto
que da casi pereza.
Casi pienso que no tengo fuerzas
para hacerlo
y encontrar dentro de mí
algo nuevo.

Andrés Calamaro - Estadio Azteca

Franco Battiato - La Cura. He tenido que subir yo mismo este vídeo al Youtube porque no estaba esta actuación, donde bordó la canción, desnuda, pura, preciosa. Se la dedicó a su sobrina.

Ti proteggerò dalle paure delle ipocondrie,
dai turbamenti che da oggi incontrerai per la tua via,
dalle ingiustizie e dagli inganni del tuo tempo,
dai fallimenti che per tua natura normalmente attirerai.
Ti sollleverò dai dolori e dai tuoi sbalzi d'umore
dalle ossessioni delle tue manie.
Supererò le correnti gravitazionali
lo spazio e la luce per non farti invecchiare;
e guarirai da tutte le malattie.

Perchè sei un essere speciale
ed io avrò cura di te.

Vagavo per i campi del Tennessee,
come vi ero arrivato chissà
non hai fiori bianchi per me?
più veloci di aquile i miei sogni
attraversano il mare.
Ti porterò soprattutto il silenzio e la pazienza,
percorreremo assieme le vie che portano all'essenza.
I profumi d'amore inebrieranno i nostri corpi,
la bonaccia d'Agosto non calmerà i nostri sensi.
Tesserò i tuoi capelli come trame di un canto,
conosco le leggi del mondo e te ne farò dono.
Supererò le correnti gravitazionali
lo spazio e la luce per non farti invecchiare;
ti salverò da ogni malinconia.

Perchè sei un essere speciale
ed io avrò cura di te.
Io sì che avrò cura di te..

Carla Bruni - Il cielo in una stanza (versionando a Mina y dándole un toque íntimo que la hace aún más bella)

Glenn Hughes - Nights in white satin (lo que me pone los pelos de punta es la guitarra de Frusciante)

Mercromina - En un mundo tan pequeño. El final, con ese crescendo que acaba en un mar de guitarras aullantes, me pone palote.

Lluís Llach - Si arribeu (aunque prefiero la de disco, pero la letra es igual de bonita)

Si arribeu en la vida
més lluny d'on pugui arribar,
moriré molt gelós
del que m'hàgiu avançat,
que no em sabré resignar
a no ser el millor vianant,
l'atleta més fornit
i el més frondós amant.

I no em vulgueu consolar,
només digueu-me, si de cas,
tot allò que hàgiu vist
i jo no podré mirar:
la fondària dels rius
que els meus peus no mullaran,
la fragància del cos
que no podré estimar,
la immensitat d'un cel
en el qual mai no he volat,
les espurnes d'un foc
que no m'hauran cremat,
les barques que a la mar
no podré amarinar.
No em doneu consol,
no em sabré consolar.

I perquè sé que vosaltres
anireu més lluny que jo,
estic gelós i content,
molt gelós i content
de la sort que heu tingut,
de la sort que tindreu,
que tanmateix sé que mai
no he estat fornit atleta,
ni tan sols digne amant,
només un vianant.

Sigur Rós - Njosnovelin (Untitled #4). Es tan bella que no parece real.

Oasis - Stand By Me, Don't Loock Back In Anger. Quédate a mi lado, no mires atrás con odio. Rozan la perfección.

Queen - Too Much Love Will Kill You. Ésta me hace saltar la lagrimilla.

I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I'm far away from home
And I've been facing this alone
For much too long
I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In my tangled state of mind
I've been looking back to find
Where I went wrong
Too much love will kill you
If you can't make up your mind
Torn between the lover
And the love you leave behind
You're headed for disaster
'cos you never read the signs
Too much love will kill you
Every time
I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems like there's no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine
Now all I ever do is bring you down
How would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can't you see that it's impossible to choose
No there's no making sense of it
Every way I go I'm bound to lose
Too much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all
It'll drain the power that's in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You're the victim of your crime
Too much love will kill you
Every time
Too much love will kill you
It'll make your life a lie
Yes, too much love will kill you
And you won't understand why
You'd give your life, you'd sell your soul
But here it comes again
Too much love will kill you
In the end...
In the end.

Keren Ann - Midi dans le salon de la Duchesse

Nacho Vegas - Ocho y medio

LETRA:

Miro al techo que hoy ha vuelto a gotear,
hacía tiempo que no llovía así.
Y cada gota golpeando contra los cacharros de metal
me hace pensar unas veces en sangre y otras veces en ti.
Lo que en realidad viene a ser lo mismo.
Lo que, por crueldad, ahora viene a dar igual.
O puede ser un ángel que una vez perdió la fe y fue expulsado,
y que ha venido a agonizar justo encima de mi hogar y estas gotas sean sus lágrimas.
O puede que sea hora de entrar ya en razón
y llegar a comprender que dentro de este horror no hay literatura, no,
y eso tú lo sabes bien a fuerza de caer una y otra vez
en una trampa mortal que en el tiempo dura ya ocho años y medio.
Seré muy breve: te quiero, y esto duele.

Y vino un pájaro a posarse en mi ventana.
Tenía una ala rota y su plumaje era gris y azul.
Y al acercar mi mano y comprobar que no, no echaba a volar
supe de inmediato que lo enviabas tú.
Lo tomé entre mis garras y lo dejé morir,
y cuando lo hizo aún llovía aquí.
Y la sangre al gotear entre zarpas de animal presagió mi suerte,
como una ave que voló de Madrid hacia Gijón aun herida de muerte,
reescribiendo la espiral de prometer hacerlo bien,
de cometer un nuevo error, de no saber pedir perdón o pedirlo demasiadas veces.
Y aunque ahora escupo una oración helado de terror ningún dios responde aún.
¿Soy yo el que no ve o es que todavía no se hizo la luz?
Seré muy breve: te extraño, y esto duele.

Trato de encontrar una salida
pero no recuerdo ni por dónde hemos entrado aquí.
Y contemplo junto a mí el cadáver del que fui,
según tú, en una ocasión,
y es la mancha de humedad la de la herida mortal impregnada en el colchón,
y ahora que te oigo llorar en lugar de ir hacia ti
me vuelvo a anastesiar y me limito a subir el volumen del televisor,
o me concentro en recordar, para no pensar en ti,
que tendría que llamar y que alguien venga a reparar la gotera de una puta vez,
que ya cansé de recoger litros de agua gris, gris como un metal
que un día relució y que ahora es suciedad.
¿Qué se hace para amar lo que quise despreciar ya una y mil veces?
Seré muy breve: te he perdido, y esto duele.

The Whole of the Moon

The Whole of the Moon
-----------------------
I pictured a rainbow
You held in your hands
I had flashes
But you saw then plan
I wondered out in the world for years
While you just stayed in your room
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon!
The whole of the moon!

You were there at the turnstiles
With the wind at your heels
You stretched for the stars
And you know how it feels
To reach too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon!

I was grounded
While you filled the skies
I was dumbfounded by truths
You cut through lies
I saw the rain-dirty valley
You saw brigadoon
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon!

I spoke about wings
You just flew
I wondered, I guessed, and I tried
You just knew
I sighed
But you swooned
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon!
The whole of the moon!

With a torch in your pocket
And the wind at your heels
You climbed on the ladder
And you know how it feels
To reach too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon!
The whole of the moon!

Unicorns and cannonballs,
Palaces and piers,
Trumpets, towers, and tenemets,
Wide oceans full of tears,
Flag, rags, ferry boats,
Scimitars and scarves,
Every precious dream and vision
Underneath the stars

You climbed on the ladder
With the wind in your sails
You came like a comet
Blazing your trail
Too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon!

PETER GABRIEL - "Here Comes The Flood"

When the night shows
the signals grow on radios
All the strange things
they come and go, as early warnings
Stranded starfish have no place to hide
still waiting for the swollen Easter tide
There's no point in direction we cannot
even choose a side.

I took the old track
the hollow shoulder, across the waters
On the tall cliffs
they were getting older, sons and daughters
The jaded underworld was riding high
Waves of steel hurled metal at the sky
and as the nail sunk in the cloud, the rain
was warm and soaked the crowd.

Lord, here comes the flood
We'll say goodbye to flesh and blood
If again the seas are silent
in any still alive
It'll be those who gave their island to survive
Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry.

When the flood calls
You have no home, you have no walls
In the thunder crash
You're a thousand minds, within a flash
Don't be afraid to cry at what you see
The actors gone, there's only you and me
And if we break before the dawn, they'll
use up what we used to be.

Lord, here comes the flood
We'll say goodbye to flesh and blood
If again the seas are silent
in any still alive
It'll be those who gave their island to survive
Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry.
