La canción del día: La Bionda – One for you, one for me

Ya sé que volver a poner La Bionda puede parecer una provocación pero no lo hago con esa intención ni quiero invocar al maligno ni nada, el rollo es que hoy es el cumpleaños de mi santa, Tok(otó), y cuando le pasé el disco entre otros mil para que amenizara sus idas y vueltas del curro esta canción le gustó mucho y además me preguntó que si había vídeo, y sí, hay vídeo, claro, y además no tengo mucho tiempo para andar buscando otra canción que pueda estar a la altura en cuanto a que sepa que le va a gustar y tal…

Pero bueno, no sé para qué doy tantas explicaciones, al que no le guste que no mire… Al lío: ¡¡Muchas zorrionakses para mi niñia!!

Y aquí en directo 30 añazos después:

Y aquí la letra (por poner):

One for you, one for me, one for you, one for me,
One for you, one for me, one for you, one for me.

One for you, one for me, one for you, one for me.
One for you, one for me, one for you, one for me.

Please don’t go away, I’m ready and I’m able
Please don’t go away (Don’t go!) ’till morning comes around.
Please don’t go away while wine is on the table
Please don’t go away (Don’t go!) just lay your body down.

Now I don’t know what I would do if you got up to leave,
My jealous heart beats deep inside and not here on my sleeve.
‘Cause I could show a girl like you such loving and affection,
I don’t want to make no speech this here ain’t no election.

Please don’t go away, Honey, change your mind and stay!
Hot love’s on the way, Honey, let me hear you say – yeah, yeah, yeah!

One for you, one for me, one for you, one for me.
One for you, one for me, one for you, one for me,
One for you, one for me, one for you, one for me.
One for you, one for me, one for you, one for me.

La canción del día: Belle & Sebastian – The Boy With The Arab Strap

Belle & Sebastian me gustan mucho, aunque también es verdad que ahora no los escucho tanto como antes. Total, que aquí va una de sus canciones más conocidas, estuve buscando un vídeo muy bueno en el que un tipo vestido en plan running ochentero corría al ritmo de la canción, pero no lo he encontrado así que aquí van en directo:

Letra:
A mile and a half on a bus takes a long time
The odour of old prison food takes a long time to pass you by
When youve been inside
Day upon day of this wandering gets you down
Nobody gives you a chance or a dollar in this old town
Hovering silence from you is a giveaway
Squalor and smoke’s not your style
“I don’t like this place”
We better go
Then I compare notes with your older sister
I am a lazy gett, she is as pure as the cold driven snow
What did you learn from your tim ein the solitary
Cell of your mind?
There was noises, distractions from anything good
And the old prison food
Colour my life with the chaos of trouble
Cause anything’s better than posh isolation
I missed the bus
You were laid on your back
With the boy from the arab strap
With the boy from the arab strap
Its something to speak of the way you are feeling
To crowds there assembled
Do you ever feel you have gone too far?
Everyone suffers in silence and a burden
The man who drives minicabs down in Old Compton
The Asian man
With his love hate affair
With his racist clientele
A central location for you is a must as you stagger about making free
With your lewd and lascivious boasts
We know you are soft cause we’ve all seen you dancing
We know you are hard cause we all saw you drinking from noon
Until noon again
You’re the boy with the filthy laugh
Youre the boy with the arab strap
Strapped to the table with suits from the shelter shop
Comic celebrity takes a back seat as the cigarette catches
And sets off the smoke alarm
What do you make of the cool set in London?
You’re constantly updating your hit parade of you ten biggest wanks
She’s a waitress and she’s got style
Sunday bathtime could take a while
