"Only one shadow on the wall
Just one candle burning bright
I hold your picture to my heart
I’m alone inside the night
The sun comes up in china ... the lights go on in rome
Half the world is waiting for someone they can hold
Half the world is praying they’ll never be alone
Everytime you leave me a part of me goes too
And half your world is waiting here for you
I reach across an empty bed
I hear your whisper in my ear
But like the sun without the moon
It’s half a dream without you here
The train that takes you from me
Brings somebody home
Half the world is waiting for someone they can hold
Half the world is praying they’ll never be alone
Everytime you leave me a part of me goes too
And half your world is waiting here for you
Baby the earth stands still
When I’m lying next to you
No matter where you go
Our whole world’s inside this room
The sun comes up in china
The lights go on in rome ... oh
Half the world is waiting for someone they can hold
Half the world is praying they’ll never be alone
And everytime you leave me my heart breaks in two
And half the world is waiting here for you
I’m waiting here for you ..."
"Do you feel like I feel", too?

Mundos paralelos
O mundo dos sonhos é um local engraçado...a noção de tempo e espaço não existe...o passado, o presente, e o futuro coexistem pacíficamente sem barreiras, sem limitações. E podemos ir onde quisermos, e estar com quem quisermos, e fazer o que quisermos.
Mas, depois, acordamos para a realidade (ou devo dizer, para o pesadelo?).
Olha, e se fosse o inverso? E se a realidade fosse o sonho, e o sonho a realidade?

O Tempo. Esse malfadado conceito que existe agarrado à alma e que sem o qual nada poderia existir. No entanto o Tempo é, independentemente de existir Espaço. Isto, se acreditarmos que somos eternos. Enfim...fica para outra altura esta dissertação.
Agora quero falar do Tempo e da espera. A espera paciente. Que nos liberta da ansiedade. Que nos liberta da opressão. Que nos liberta da dôr.

John Miles - Music (Live 1976)
"Music was my first love
And it will be my last
Music of the future
And music of the past
To live without my music
Would be impossible to do
In this world of troubles
My music pulls me through"
1976 - Um Ano muito especial para mim. Um Ano com muita história. O Ano que retêm as minhas mais antigas recordações da infância. Este foi o primeiro Ano do resto da minha vida num País diferente, numa vida que se queria nova e cheia de esperança.
E esta música reflete isso tudo e muito mais...cada música, cada melodia, reflete um estado de espírito, reflete um pensamento, ou um sentimento...
Uma coisa é certa, eu não consigo viver sem música, seja de que género fôr, independentemente dos estados de espírito, a música é a minha melhor companhia, agora e sempre.

The Corrs-Irresistible
"You're irresistible
You're mine
Don't want you for the weekend
Don't want you for a day
Don't need a love divided
Don't wanna feel this way
See I want you to need me (the way I need you)
Just like I need you (the way I see you)
And I want you to see me
Like no-one before
Chorus
You're irresistible,natural, physical
It's indefinable, magical, illogical
So make-you-mineable
You're mine
So can't you see I'm tortured
Oh, can't you hear my pain
If you just let me show you
I'll be your summer rain
Then you'll feel that you want me (the way I'm feeling)
Just like I want you (the way I want you)
And you know nothing's better
It's like nothing before
Chorus
Now you feel what I'm feeling (don't you feel what I'm feeling)
Don't you know that it's more (it can take you places)
It can take you places
Like never before
Chorus"
Hummmmm... :)

Kylie - The One [amazing music and video]
"Starlight shimmers everywhere
There's a certain something in the air
Can you feel what I feel in me?
It's in the air, electricity oh, oh
Glimmering under neon lights
I can see the look, that's in your eyes
Like a shooting star in a galaxy
Making its way to the heart of me
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me
My pulse is racing and I'm feeling high
Never-ending starts tonight
When you do what you do to me
Come on and let yourself feel the need in me, oh, oh
Circling and we're getting close
Can you imagine, just suppose
It's a feeling that I need to know
Close to touch like Michelangelo
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me
Can you hear me?
I'm connecting with you
Can you feel me?
I'll do anything to have you near me
I was wondering, will you reach me?
Love me…Love me…
Love me, love me, love me, love me
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me"
- Se não existisse Madonna no universo, era a Kylie ;D
E no entanto, elas não colidem nem são incompatíveis (são fãs uma da outra). Porque o que interessa mesmo é a música e o espectáculo, e nisso, não há margem para dúvidas, elas são "Masters on the Art".
Madonna no Hemisfério Norte, Kylie no Hemisfério Sul.
Um dia destes ainda temos uma surpresa e vemos a Kylie em Portugal. I would love that! :D -

Mas a melhor parte da letra é mesmo esta ;)
"But somehow I’m still alive inside.
You took my breath but I survived.
I don’t know how but I don’t even care!"
"No air" by Jordin Sparks ft. Chris Brown

No Air - Jordan Sparks Ft. Chris Brown
Tell me how I’m supposed to breathe with no air?
[Jordin]
If I should die before I wake
It's cause you took my breath away
Losing you is like living in a world with no air, oh
[Chris]
I’m here alone, didn’t wanna leave
My heart won’t move, it’s incomplete
Wish there was a way that I can make you understand
[Jordin]
But how
Do you expect me, to live alone with just me?
‘Cause my world revolves around you
It’s so hard for me to breathe
[Chorus-Both]
Tell me how I’m supposed to breathe with no air?
Can’t live, can’t breathe with no air
That’s how I feel whenever you ain’t there
There’s no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gon be without me?
If you ain’t here, I just can’t breathe
There’s no air, no air
No air air, No air air
No air air, No air air
[Chris]
I walked, I ran, I jumped, I flew,
Right off the ground to flow to you
There’s no gravity to hold me down, for real
[Jordin]
But somehow I’m still alive inside
You took my breath but I survived
I don’t know how but I don’t even care
[Both]
So how do you expect me, to live alone with just me?
‘Cause my world revolves around you
It’s so hard for me to breathe
[Chorus-Both]
Tell me how I’m supposed to breathe with no air?
Can’t live, can’t breathe with no air
That’s how I feel whenever you ain’t there
There’s no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gon be without me?
If you ain’t here I just can’t breathe
There’s no air, no air
No air air, No air air
No air air, No air air
No more
No air
Baby
There's no air, no air
Hey, oOoOo
Oooooooooooooh
[Chorus-Both]
Tell me how I’m supposed to breathe with no air?
Can’t live, can’t breathe with no air
That’s how I feel whenever you ain’t there
There’s no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gon be without me?
If you ain’t here I just can’t breathe
There’s no air, no air
[Jordin]
(Do you expect me, to live alone with just me
Cause my world revolves around you, It's so hard for me to breathe)
[Both]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breath with no air?
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
That's how I feel whenever you ain't there
There's no air, no air
[Outro-Both]
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gonna be without me?
If you ain’t here I just can’t breathe
There’s no air, no air
No air air, No air air
No air air,
No air

Relativizando a realidade
Isn't the ending so much as the start
The tragedy starts from the very first spark
Losing your mind for the sake of your heart
"Let It Die" by Feist
O bom senso da maturidade, essa fase da vida em que aprendemos a escolher criteriosamente o que nos incomoda, e que por conseguinte nos faz ter uma atitude positiva e pacífica perante a vida, não é mais do que o momento em que deixamos pura e simplesmente de criar expectativas em relação aos outros. Desistimos dos sonhos e olhamos tudo com uma limpidez terrivel. Baixamos os ombros e continuamos em frente. Porque, afinal, apenas a juventude, na sua irreverência, é abençoada com a inocência e a ideia fantástica de que tudo é possível.
