Björk
I've seen it all
I have seen the trees
I have seen the willow leaves
Dancing in the breeze
Yorke
I've seen a man killed
By his best friend,
And lives that were over
Before they were spent.
Björk & Yorke
I've seen what I was
And I know what I'll be
I've seen it all
There is no more to see
Björk
You haven't seen elephants
Kings or Peru
Yorke
I'm happy to say
I had better to do
Björk
What about China?
Have you seen the Great Wall?
Yorke
All walls are great
If the roof doesn't fall
And the man you will marry
The home you will share
Björk
To be honest
I really don't care
[gibberish]
Yorke
You've never been
To Niagara Falls
Björk
I have seen water
It's water, that's all
Yorke
The Eiffel Tower
The Empire State
Björk
My pulse was as high
On my very first date
Yorke
And your grandson's hand
As he plays with your hair
Björk
To be honest
I really don't care
[gibberish]
Björk & Yorke
I've seen it all
I've seen the dark
I've seen the brightness
In one little spark
I've seen what I chose
And I've seen what I need
And that is enough
To want more would be greed
I've seen what I was
And I know what I'll be
I've seen it all
There is no more to see
Yorke
You've seen it all
And all you have seen
You can always review on
Your own little screen
The light and the dark
The big and the small
Just keep in mind
You need no more at all
Björk & Yorke
You've seen what you were
And know what you'll be
You've seen it all
There is no more to see
Eu sei que esta letra tem uma visão um pouco (muito) pessimista das coisas. Mas, sobretudo para quem viu o filme, é simplesmente genial.

Não conheço.. :s Quando me quiserem enviar, td bem. lol
Lembro-me de ela ter feito a banda sonora para o filme...
mas n vi o filme nem ouvi a banda sonora. è sem dúvida uma das minhas grandes falhas é nunca ter prestado grande atenção a esta «menina», q embora tenha 2 cds dela (gentilmente cedidos obrigado susana...) nunca os ouvi... dizem q nunca é tarde para começar... e q mais vale tarde q nunca... Mas a letra, q eu tanta atenção e importancia dou numa musica, gostei muito...
e se me permitem deixar a dica para uma música, aqui vai O meu artista preferido: Tom Waits
Chocolate Jesus
(Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan)
Don't go to church on Sunday
Don't get on my knees to pray
Don't memorize the books of the Bible
I got my own special way
But I know Jesus loves me
Maybe just a little bit more
I fall on my knees every Sunday
At Zerelda Lee's candy store
Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus
Make me feel good inside
Got to be a chocolate Jesus
Keep me satisfied
Well I don't want no Anna Zabba
Don't want no Almond Joy
There ain't nothing better
Suitable for this boy
Well it's the only thing
That can pick me up
Better than a cup of gold
See only a chocolate Jesus
Can satisfy my soul
When the weather gets rough
And it's whiskey in the shade
It's best to wrap your savior
Up in cellophane
He flows like the big muddy
But that's ok
Pour him over ice cream
For a nice parfait
Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus
Good enough for me
Got to be a chocolate Jesus
Good enough for me
Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus
Make me feel good inside
Got to be a chocolate Jesus
Keep me satisfied
Ja ouviste pelo menos 1 cd dela... lol Quanto ao filme, não recomendo a pessoas muito sensíveis, é fortíssimo... A interpretação que ela faz no papel de Selma é inacreditável.
aqui vai outra, tb do tom waits. Esta já é velhinha (1973) mas tem dedicação especial eheh
I Hope That I Don't Fall in Love with You
(Tom Waits)
Well I hope that I don't fall in love with you
'Cause falling in love just makes me blue,
Well the music plays and you display your heart for me to see,
I had a beer and now I hear you calling out for me
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
Well the room is crowded, people everywhere
And I wonder, should I offer you a chair?
Well if you sit down with this old clown, take that frown and break it,
Before the evening's gone away, I think that we could make it,
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
Well the night does funny things inside a man
These old tom-cat feelings you don't understand,
Well I turn around to look at you, you light a cigarette,
I wish I had the guts to bum one, but we've never met,
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
I can see that you are lonesome just like me, and it being late,
You'd like some some company,
Well I turn around to look at you, and you look back at me,
The guy you're with has up and split, the chair next to you's free,
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me.
Now it's closing time, the music's fading out
Last call for drinks, I'll have another stout.
Well I turn around to look at you, you're nowhere to be found,
I search the place for your lost face, guess I'll have another round
And I think that I just fell in love with you.
eu sou uma pessoa muito sensivel... quase q chorei no titanic... lol
eheheh
mas por acaso 1x vi na 2 uma apresentação do filme e aguçou-me bastante a curiosidade, mas como já disse, n costumo ir ao cinema, nem ver tv... mas espero q pelo menos as idas ao cinema agora sejam mais frequentes... ;)
O filme não é propriamente "fortíssimo" no sentido de fazer chorar, mas mais no sentido de nos fazer sentir "pequeninos" e de nos deixar com o coração extremamente apertado.
A letra da música «I Hope That I Don't Fall in Love with You» é realmente linda... Adorei... ;)
Quanto ao cinema, as boas experiências são para ser repetidas, não é? =P
claro eheheh ;)
