Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #173 - All things must pass

2011-11-04T12:35:00.004-02:00

Bela homenagem do Paul e outros amigos a George Harrison. E linda música do George. Com certeza, tudo passa, mesmo.

All Things Must Pass
George Harrison

Sunrise doesn't last all morning
A cloudburst doesn't last all day
Seems my love is up
And has left you with no warning
But it's not always going to be this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away

Sunset doesn't last all evening
A mind can blow those clouds away
After all this my love is up
And must be leaving
It has not always been this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away

All things must pass
None of life's strings can last
So I must be on my way
And face another day

Now the darkness only stays at nighttime
In the morning it will fade away
Daylight is good
At arriving at the right time
It's not always going to be this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
All things must pass away

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #171 In Spite Of All The Danger / 20 Flight Rock

2011-10-24T12:28:00.005-02:00

Música da época do The Quarrymen, única escrita pelo Paul e pelo George Harrison.
Versão atualizada, com 20 Flight Rock adicional.

In Spite of All the Danger
McCartney - Harrison

In spite of all the danger,
in spite of all that may be
I'll do anything for you,
anything you want me to,
if you'll be true to me.

In spite of all the heartache,
that you may cause me,
I'll do anything for you,
anything you want me to,
if you'll be true to me.

I'll look after you
like I've never done before.
I'll keep all the others
from knocking at your door.

In spite of all the danger,
in spite of all that may be,
I'll do anything for you,
anything you want me to,
if you'll be true to me.

In spite of all the heartache
that you may cause me,
I'll do anything for you,
anything you want me to,
if you'll be true to me.
I'll do anything for you,
anything you want me to,
if you'll be true to me.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #170 Suicide

2011-10-21T16:30:00.002-02:00

Hoje vi um vídeo do Sinatra e resolvi procurar alguma música do Paul que tivesse a ver. Achei Suicide, que ele escreveu aos 14 anos e que nunca gravou em disco. E que chegou a mandar para Sinatra, que não quis gravá-la. Aqui, um vídeo da época dos Wings. Linda e rara!

Suicide
Paul McCartney

Girls it's been my pleasure
To know quite a lot of you.
And in the main
You're pretty sane, it's true.
But there are a few who do to
doo ti doo too beautiful a job.
It isn't quite what they planned
When the man gets the upper hand.
He's takin' her for a ride.
I'd call it suicide.

If when she tries to run away
And he calls her back, she comes.
If there's a next time, he's okay
Cause she's under both his thumbs.
She limps along to his side
Singing a song of ruin. I'd
bet he says nothin' doin'.
I-I-I-I I'd call it suicide.

She loves to ride in big parades.
But he wouldn't so she won't.
She needs at least a dozen maids.
But if he says no she don't.
He wishes she knew his side.
Soon there'll be trouble brewin' I'd
bet he says nothin' doin'
I-I-I-I I'd call it suicide.

Suicide, she's commitin' it
Suicide, he's not gettin' it
Suicide, it's a quittin' a day.

She limps along to his side
Singing a song of ruin. I'd
bet he says nothin' doin'.
I-I-I-I I'd call it suicide.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #169 You Won't See Me

2011-10-19T14:16:00.002-02:00

Uma música fofa do disco Rubber Soul, que o Paul quase nunca toca:
You Won't See Me. Aliás, esse é um disco cheio de pérolas.

You Won't See Me
The Beatles

When I call you up,
Your line's engaged.
I have had enough,
So act your age.

We have lost the time
That was so hard to find
And I will lose my mind
If you won't see me.
You won't see me.

I don't know why you
Should want to hide.
But I can't get through.
My hands are tied.

I won't want to stay.
I don't have much to say
And I can turn away
And you won't see me.
You won't see me.

Time after time
You refuse to even listen.
I wouldn't mind
If I knew what I was missing.

Though the days are few
They're filled with tears.
And since I lost you,
It feels like years.

Yes, it seems so long,
Girl, since you've been gone
And I just can't go on
If you won't see me.
You won't see me.

Time after time
You refuse to even listen.
I wouldn't mind
If I knew what I was missing,

Though the days are few
They're filled with tears.
And since I lost you,
It feels like years.

Yes, it seems so long,
Girl, since you've been gone
And I just can't go on
If you won't see me.
You won't see me.
Yeah.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #168 Brown Eyed Handsome Man

2011-10-18T14:07:00.005-02:00

Versão do Paul de um clássico de Chuck Berry: Brown Eyed Handsome Man. Aliás, o que ele é, de fato. Vídeo divertido.

Brown Eyed Handsome Man
Chuck Berry

Well, flying across the desert in a TWA, I saw a woman walking across the sand.
She'd be walking thirty miles en route to Bombay to meet a brown eyed handsome man,
her destination was a brown eyed handsome man.

Way back in history three thousand years, in fact ever since the world began,
there's been a whole lotta good women shedding tears over a brown eyed handsome man,
a lot of trouble was a brown eyed handsome man.

Well, the Milo de Venus was a beautiful lass, she had the world in the palm of her hand
she lost both her arms in a wrestling match to win a brown eyed handsome man,
she fought and won herself a brown eyed handsome man.

Well, a beautiful daughter couldn't make up her mind between a doctor and a lawyer man.
Her mother told her daughter go out and find yourself a brown eyed handsome man,
just like your daddy was, a brown eyed handsome man.

Well, a two, three the count with nobody home he hit a high flyer into the stand.
A rounded third he was a-heading for home,
it was a brown eyed handsome man that won the game,
It was a brown eyed handsome man.
It was a brown eyed handsome man.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #167 Long Tall Sally

2011-09-23T12:21:00.002-03:00

Um clássico do rock interpretado pelo Paul para começar o fim de semana em alto astral: Long Tall Sally. Guitarra do Mark Knopfler. Nem a princesa Diana conseguiu ficar parada!

Long Tall Sally
Little Richard

Don't tell Aunt Mary about Uncle John
He claims he got married, but he's having lots of fun
Oh, baby, yeah, baby
Oh, baby, having me some fun tonight

Well, long tall Sally, she's built sweet
She's got everything that Uncle John needs
Oh, baby, yeah baby
Oh, baby, having me some fun tonight

Well, I saw Uncle John with bald-head Sally
He saw Aunt Mary coming and he ducked back in the alley
Oh, baby, yeah baby
Oh, baby, having me some fun tonight

I'm gonna have some fun tonight
Have some fun tonight, have some fun tonight
Everything's all right
Have some fun, having me some fun tonight

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #166 That´s All Right Mama

2011-09-20T16:58:00.004-03:00

Só mesmo o Paul para cantar essa música tão bem quanto o Elvis Presley. Vídeo muito legal.

That's Alright, Mama
Jimmy Rogers

Well, that's alright, mama
That's alright for you
That's alright mama, just anyway you do
Well, that's alright, that's alright.
That's alright now mama, anyway you do

Mama she done told me,
Papa done told me too
'Son, that gal your foolin' with,
She ain't no good for you'
But, that's alright, that's alright.
That's alright now mama, anyway you do

I'm leaving town, baby
I'm leaving town for sure
Well, then you wont be bothered with
Me hanging 'round your door
Well, that's alright, that's alright.
That's alright now mama, anyway you do

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #165 While My Guitar Gently Weeps

2011-09-15T13:27:00.003-03:00

A música é dos Beatles, escrita pelo George Harrison, mas vale pela presença no Paul e do Ringo na apresentação. Uma das mais lindas músicas do rock, na minha opinião, e um solo de guitarra sublime, do mago Clapton, nesta e no original.

While My Guitar Gently Weeps
George Harrison

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know why nobody told you
How to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you

I look at the world and I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted
No one alerted you

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps

(I look from the wings at the play you are staging
While my guitar gently weeps
As I'm sitting here doing nothing but aging
Still my guitar gently weeps)

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #164 The Night Before

2011-09-09T11:23:00.001-03:00

The Night Before é uma música de Help, o primeiro disco dos Beatles que eu tive, presente de um amigo, Fabião. Talvez por isso seja um dos meus preferidos - foi paixão instantânea! As duas versões do vídeo (com Beatles e só Paul) são demais.

The Night Before
Lennon/McCartney

We said our goodbyes.
(Ah.. the night before.)
Love was in your eyes.
(Ah.. the night before.)
Now, today I find
You have changed your mind.
Treat me like you did the night before.
Were you tellin' lies?
(Ah.. the night before.)
Was I so unwise?
(Ah.. the night before.)
When I held you near,
You were so sincere.
Treat me like you did the night before.
Last night is a night
I will remember you by.
When I think of things we did,
It makes me want to cry.
We said our goodbyes.
(Ah.. the night before.)
Love was in your eyes.
(Ah.. the night before.)
Now, today I find
You have changed your mind.
Treat me like you did the night before. Yes.
When I held you near,
You were so sincere.
Treat me like you did the night before.
Last night is a night
I will remember you by.
When I think of things we did,
It makes me want to cry.
Were you tellin' lies?
(Ah.. the night before.)
Was I so unwise?
(Ah.. the night before.)
When I held you near,
You were so sincere.
Treat me like you did the night before.
Like the night before.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #163 I Will

2011-08-26T13:10:00.000-03:00

Uma balada linda do Álbum Branco, feita pelo Paul, embora assinada pela dupla: I Will.

I Will
Lennon/McCartney

Who knows how long I've loved you,
You know I love you still,
Will I wait a lonely lifetime,
If you want me to I will.

For if I ever saw you,
I didn't catch your name,
But it never really mattered,
I will always feel the same.

Love you forever and forever,
Love you with all my heart;
Love you whenever we're together,
Love you when we're apart.

And when at last I find you,
Your song will fill the air,
Sing it loud so I can hear you,
Make it easy to be near you,
For the things you do endear you to me,
you know I will.
I will.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #162 Friends To Go

2011-08-23T12:14:00.002-03:00

Uma música do disco Chaos and Creation in the Backyard: Friends to Go. Segundo o Paul, inspirada pelo George Harrison. O vídeo é bem bacana.

Friends To Go
Paul McCartney

I've been waitin on the other side, for your friends to leave
So I don't have to hide, I prefer they didnt know
So I've been waiting on the other side, for your friends to go

I've been sliding down a slippery slope, I've been climbing
Up a slowly burning rope, but the flame is getting low
I've been waitin' on the other side, for your friends to go

You never need to worry about me, I'll be fine on my own
Someone else can worry about me
I've spent a lot of time on my own
I've spent a lot of time on my own

I've been waitin till the danger past, I don't know
How long the storm is gonna to last, if we're gonna carry on
I'll been waiting on the other side, till your friends are gone

So tell me what I wanna know
I'll be waiting on the other side, for your friends to go

(solo)

Someone else can worry about me
I've spent a lot of time on my own
I've spent a lot of time on my own

I've been waiting on the other side
For your friends to leave so I don't have to hide
I prefer they didnt know
So I've been waiting on the other side, for your friends to go

I've been waiting on the other side
I've been waiting on the other side, for your friends to go

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #161 Too Many People

2011-08-19T11:09:00.004-03:00

Música bacana do disco Ram. Animada para começar o fim de semana bem.

Too Many People
Paul McCartney

Too Many People Going Underground
Too Many Reaching For A Piece Of Cake
Too Many People Pulled And Pushed Around
Too Many Waiting For That Lucky Break
That Was Your First Mistake
You Took Your Lucky Break And Broke It In Two

You Broke It In Two

Too Many People Sharing Party Lines
Too Many People Never Sleeping Late
Too Many People Paying Parking Fines
Too Many Hungry People Losing Weight

That Was Your First Mistake
You Took Your Lucky Break And Broke It In Two
Now What Can Be Done For You
You Broke It In Two

I Find My Love Awake And Waiting To Be
Now What Can Be Done For You
She's Waiting For Me

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #160 P.S. I Love You

2011-08-18T17:03:00.003-03:00

Uma das minhas favoritas do disco Please Please Me, dos Beatles, em versão atualizada, animada, da turnê de 1993, mixada com Love Me Do. No final, o original, do tempo em que a gente ainda mandava e recebia cartas de amor. Tenho todas as que recebi guardadas! Lindas lembranças...

P.S. I Love You
Lennon/McCartney

As I write this letter
Send my love to you
Remember that I'll always
Be in love with you

Treasure these few words
Till we're together
Keep all my love forever
P.S. I love you
you, you, you

I'll be comin' home again to you, love
Until the day I do love
P.S. I love you
you, you, you

As I write this letter
Send my love to you (you know I want you to)

you, you, you
you, you, you
I love you

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #159 Single Pigeon

2011-08-17T18:17:00.004-03:00

Uma balada delicada do disco Red Rose Speedway para retomar a série do Paul: Single Pigeon.

A vida mudou, trabalho novo, amigos novos e antigos, mais tempo para a família. Estou mais leve, mais feliz. A crise passou. As músicas do Paul cumpriram seu papel, como eu previ mais de um ano atrás. Não consegui colocar uma por dia, mas valeu. Até consegui ver o Paul ao vivo neste período! Espero agora retomar a escrita por prazer, já que não tenho mais a escrita por obrigação. Com as músicas dele como refresco.

Single Pigeon
Paul McCartney

Single Pigeon Through The Railing
Did She Throw You Out
Sunday Morning Fight About Saturday Night

Single Seagull Gliding Over Regent's Park Canal
Do You Need A Pal For A Minute Or Two
You Do?
Me Too, Me Too, Me Too
I'm A Lot Like You
Me Too, Me Too, Me Too

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #158 Souvenir

2011-07-01T17:17:00.004-03:00

Música linda de Flaming Pie, um de meus discos favoritos do Paul. Mistura delicadeza com uma pegada mais pesada. Pena que não tem vídeo, só áudio.

Souvenir
Paul McCartney

When you're fed up shedding too many tears
And you're memories seem like just so many souvenirs
I will come to you to ease the pain

If you want me tell me now
If I can be of any help, tell me how
Let me love you like a friend
Everything is gonna come right in the end

When you're crying like a poor little child
And you're feeling like you never could be reconciled
Don't forget a word of what I'm saying

If you want me tell me now
If I can be of any help, tell me how
Let me love you like a friend
Everything is is gonna come right in the end

Well, I can hold you too tight
I could never let you go
But that wouldn't be right
So, why don't you let me know (let me know)

Everybody's got a handful of fear
But tomorrow it may only be a souvenir
Of the way it was 'til it went away

If you want me tell me now
If I can be of any help, tell me how
Let me love you like a friend
Every little thing is gonna come right in the end

Well, I can hold you too tight
I could never let you go
But that wouldn't be right
So, why don't you let me know (let me know)

If you want me tell me now
If I can be of any help, tell me how
Let me love you like a friend
Every little thing is gonna come right in the end

Souvenir
No, not another souvenir
No, no no, no, souvenir

Uma música do Paul MCartney por dia - # 157 I'll Get You

2011-06-30T14:58:00.002-03:00

Versão atualizada de uma música dos Beatles de 1963: I´ll Get You. Muito legal.

I'll Get You
Lennon / McCartney

Oh yeah, oh yeah.
Oh yeah, oh yeah.
Imagine, I'm in love with you,
It's easy because I know,
I've imagined I'm in love with you,
Many, many, many times before.
It's not like me to pretend,
But I'll get you in the end,
Yes I will, I'll get you in the end, oh yeah, oh yeah.

I think about you night and day,
I need you and it's true.
When I think about you, I can say,
I'm never, never, never, never blue.
So I'm telling you, my friend,
That I'll get you, I'll get you in the end,
Yes I will, I'll get you in the end, oh yeah, oh yeah.

Well, there's gonna be a time,
Well I'm gonna change your mind
So you might as well resign yourself to me, oh yeah.

Imagine, I'm in love with you,

Many, many, many times before.
It's not like be to pretend,

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #156 Figure of Eight

2011-06-29T15:31:00.002-03:00

Figure of Eight não é das minhas favoritas, mas vale entrar aqui, porque é de uma fase dele de que gosto muito.

Figure Of Eight
Paul McCartney

(Well) You've Got Me Dancing In A Figure Of Eight,
Don't Know If I'm Coming Or Going, I'm Early Or Late.
Round And Round The Ring I Go,
I Want To Know, I Want To Know,
Why Can't We Travel A Continuous Line?
Make Love Reliable Convenant All The Time.
Up And Down The Hills I Go, I Got To Know, I Got To Know.

Is Is Better To Love Another
Than To Go Go For A Walk In The Dark?
Is It Better To Love Than To Give In To Hate?
Yeah We'd Better Take Good Care Of Each Other
Avoid Slipping Back Off The Straight And Narrow,
It's Better By Far Than Getting Stuck In A Figure Of Eight.

(Well) Figure It Out For Yourself Little Girl,
It Don't Go Nowhere At All,
It's Nothing More Than A Tape Loop In A Big Dance Hall.

You've Got Me Running...
You've Got Me Running...

Música legal do disco memory Almost Full.

That Was Me
Paul McCartney

That was me, in the scout camp, in the school play
Spade and bucket by the sea, that was me

That was me, playing conkers at the bus stop
On a blanket in the blue bells, that was me

The same me that stands here now
When I think that all this stuff
Can make a life that's pretty hard to take it in, that was me

Well that was me, royal iris, on the river
Mersy beat n' with the band, that was me

Yeah that was me, sweating cobwebs under contract
In the cellar, on TV, that was me

The same me that stands here now
If fate agreed that all of this
To make a lifetime, who am I to disagree, that was me

That was me, accapella at the alter
in the middle of the picture, that was me

That was me at the party, sweatin' cobwebs
In a cellar on TV ya that was me

The same me that stands here now
When I think that all this stuff
Can make a life that's pretty hard to take it in, that was me
That was me, ya, that was me!

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #154 Follow Me

2011-06-27T14:43:00.003-03:00

Follow Me é bem típica do Paul, na letra e na melodia. Para começar bem a semana.

Follow Me
Paul McCartney

You lift up my spirits, you shine on my soul
Whenever I'm empty, you make me feel whole
I can rely on you, to guide me through, any situation
You hold up a sign that reads, follow me.

You give me direction, you show me the way
You give me a reason, to face every day
I can depend on you, to send me to, any destination
You hold up a sign that reads, follow me, follow me.

Down the track of lonelines, down the path of love
Through the words of heartache, to the end
On the shores of sorrow, where the waves of hope crash in
The perfect place for me to find a friend. ahh yeah yeah yeah, oh

You lead to places, that I've never been
Uncovering secrets, that I've never seen
I can rely on you, to guide me through, any situation
You hold up a sign that reads, follow me, follow me,
Follow me, follow me,
Follow me, follow me

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #152 Hey Jude

2011-05-31T15:14:00.005-03:00

Hey Jude volta aqui, na versão tocada no RJ agora em maio, por recomendação do Chico Mazali. Maravilhosa, como sempre! Embaixo, a versão de 1993 no Pacaembu, em São Paulo, a que tive o privilègio de assistir, colada no palco. E com direito a um pedacinho da tolaha que ele jgou na plateia. Inesquecível!

Hey Jude
Lennon/McCartney

Hey, Jude, don't make it bad,
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.

Hey, Jude, don't be afraid,
You were made to go out and get her.
The minute you let her under your skin,
Then you begin to make it better.

And anytime you feel the pain,
Hey, Jude, refrain,
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders.
For well you know that it's a fool
Who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder.

Da da da da da da da da da.

Hey, Jude, don't let me down,
You have found her, now go and get her.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.

So let it out and let it in, hey Jude, begin,
You're waiting for someone to perform with.
And don't you know that it's just you,hey Jude you'll do,
The movement you need is on your shoulder.

Da da da da da da da da da.

Hey, Jude, don't make it bad,
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her under your skin,
Then you begin to make it better...

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #151 Wild Life

2011-05-30T13:25:00.002-03:00

Wild Life é a música que dá nome ao primeiro álbum dos Wings. Muito boa, assim como o vídeo, uma raridade de 1973. E continua atualíssima.

Wild Life
Paul McCartney

While take a walk thru an African park one day,
I saw a sign say, "The animals have the right of way".

Wild life, whatever happened to,
Wild life, the animals in the zoo?

We're breathing a lot,
a lot of political nonsense in the air.

You're making it hard for the people who live in there.
You're moving so fast, but, baby, you know not where.
Wild life, (wild life), what's gonna happen to
Wild life, (wild life), the animals in the zoo?

You'd better stop, there's animals ev'rywhere,
And man is the top, an animal too,
And, man, you just got to care.

Wild life, what's gonna happen to,
Wild life, the animals in the zoo?

You're breathing a lot of polical nonsense in the air.

Wild life, (wild life), what's gonna happen to
(what's gonna happen to) (what's gonna happen to)
Wild life, (wild life), the animals in the zoo?
(what's gonna happen to) (what's gonna happen to)
Wild life, what ever happened to?
What ever happened to?

Comida e afeto

2011-05-28T17:24:00.008-03:00

Desde a semana passada, ando pensando muito em comida. Finalmente, tenho tido tempo de cozinhar, depois de anos sem me aventurar no fogão, com esporádicas visitas aqui e ali. E, com certeza, ver minha filha e meu marido comendo minha comida com prazer me faz ficar mais animada ainda para voltar a dominar as panelas, pelo menos nos finais de semana.

E isso me fez lembrar o que a comida significa para mim. Comer, desde sempre, é um prazer. Mas é um prazer que extrapola a comida em si. Comer é uma celebração, um momento de compartilhar cm a família e os amigos alegria e, principalmente, afeto. Aprendi a cozinhar vendo a minha avó e a minha mãe preparando as refeições da família.

Acho que, por isso, as minhas melhores memórias de infância estão sempre envolvidas com comida - o bolo do caco, típico da Ilha da Madeira, que minha avó assava nos almoços de família; o pão de pimenta que ela fazia na época do Natal; a rabada e o nhoque de forno que minha mãe fazia; os brigadeiros das nossas festinhas de aniversário, que as próprias crianças ajudavam a fazer.

E nem só as memórias de infância. Também as de viagem estão estreitamente ligadas à comida, que determina, em grande parte, as mimhas impressões dos locais por onde passei. Por isso, fujo dos fast-foods e dos restaurantes para turistas e procuro comer onde os moradores vão. De preferência, restaurantes de comida mais caseira. Acho que é assim, pela comida do dia a dia, é que se conhece melhor um povo, uma cultura. São inesquecíveis o molho de tomate que experimentei em Veneza - num restaurantezinho simples comandado por uma chinesa! -, a baguete do liceu onde estudei um mês em Paris, o sorvete de castanha de Belém do Pará, a sopa de cebola servida em uma panela de pedra sabão em Diamantina...

Dá para ter isso com fast-food ou comida industrializada? Duvido. Eles são bons para emergências, mas nada mais que isso.

O meu redescoberto prazer em cozinhar tem a ver com isso. Quero que minha filha tenha essas mesmas lembranças. Que ela, ao comer um pavê daqui a 20 anos, lembre-se com carinho de quando eu fazia a sobremesa favorita dela, ou suas batatas fritas preferidas, ou as panquecas doces e salgadas. Ou das viagens que fizemos juntas, provando comidinhas deliciosas e descobrindo novidades maravilhosas.

E meu marido também - que, cozinheiro de mão cheia, percebeu logo essa minha ligação afetuosa com a comida e me conquistou, literalmente, pelo estômago! Aliás, vamos comer daqui a pouco uma sopa de queijo servida no pão italiano, que foi o primeiro prato que ele preparou para mim quando começamos a namorar. Comida com afeto!

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #150 Little Woman Love

Música dos Wings e vídeo raro de show da época.

Little Woman Love
Paul McCartney

I got a little woman I can really love,
My woman fit me like a little glove.
You know I'll always love
my little woman love.

I take her home most ev'ry night,
My woman love to hold me tight.
You know I feel alright
my little woman mine.

Oh yeah, oh yeah,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh yeah, oh yeah,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

I take her home most ev'ry night,
My woman love to hold me tight.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #149 Mary Had A Little Lamb

2011-05-26T09:29:00.000-03:00

Este vídeo de Mary Had a Little Lamb é uma raridade da época dos Wings. Muito figura...

Mary Had A Little Lamb
Paul McCartney

Mary had a little lamb,
his fleece was white as snow,
Ev'rywhere that Mary went,
that lamb was sur to go.

And you could hear them singing:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.

He followed her to school one day,
it was against the rules,
Made the children laugh and play to
see a lamb at school.

You could hear them singing:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.

Soon the teacher turned it out,
still it lingered near,
Waited patiently about till
Mary did appear.

You could hear them singing:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.

"But the lamb loved Mary so",
the eager children cry,
"And Mary loves the lamb, you know",
the teacher did reply.

And you could hear them singing:
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
(Ev'ry body singing)
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #148 Country Dreamer

2011-05-24T12:24:00.002-03:00

Para variar um pouco de Beatles, depois de shows com overdose deles, uma música delicada da era Wings: Country Dreamer.

Country Dreamer
Paul McCartney

I'd like to walk in a field with you,
Take my hat and my boots off too.
I'd like to lie in a field with you.
Would you like to do it too, may?
Would you like to do it too?
I'd like to stand in a stream with you,
Roll my trousers up and not feel blue.
I'd like to wash in a stream with you.
Would you like to do it too?

You and i, country dreamer,
When there's nothing else to do;
Me oh my, conutry dreamer,
Make a country dream come true.

I'd like to climb up a hill with you,
Stand on top and admire the view.
I'd like to roll down a hill with you.
Would you like to do it too, may?
Would you like to do it too?

I'd like to climb up a hill with you,
Take my hat and my boots off too.
I'd like to lie in a field with you.
Would you like to do it too, may?
Would you like to do it too?

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #147 Lady Madonna

2011-05-13T09:18:00.001-03:00

Versão recente, bem blues para Lady Madonna, dos Beatles. E o vídeo emenda ainda English Tea, linda demais, e uma palhinha de Elvis. O que daria para estar presente nessa apresentação...

Lady Madonna
Lennon/McCartney

Lady Madonna, children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet
Who finds the money? When you pay the rent?
Did you think that money was Heaven sent?
Friday night arrives without a suitcase
Sunday morning creep in like a nun
Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace
See how they run

Lady Madonna, baby at your breast
Wonder how you manage to feed the rest

See how they run

Lady Madonna, lying on the bed
Listen to the music playing in your head

Tuesday afternoon is never ending
Wednesday morning papers didn't come
Thursday night you stockings needed mending
See how they run

Lady Madonna, children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #145 Again And Again And Again

2011-05-10T12:50:00.003-03:00

Esta vale mais pelo vídeo, da época dos Wings.

Again And Again And Again
Paul McCartney

Now you don't wanna be the little woman
No you don't want to be the little woman
I love. No, no, no, no. I love.
Now you don't wanna stay in my school
You don't wanna be the one that's cool.
You don't wanna be the little woman I love.
You're up all night and we can let it hang out right. (Yeah!)
I said good-bye to all my expectations the day you walked out of my life.

Winter time is coming now
Gimme a sign if you can somehow.
Make it clear where you're heading for
Will I see you someday at my door?
Taking it all into consideration
Love's a game I never win.
I've been in very similar situations,
Again and again and again.

Oh, no. Now you don't wanna be the little woman
No, you don't want to be the little woman
I love. No, no, no, no. I love.
Now you don't wanna stay in my home
You just wanna be on your own.
You don't wanna be the little woman I love.
Take it away!

Ah, yeah!
Well things were fine all the summer long
Then things changed, so where did we go wrong?
We can run but we cannot hide
In the greener grass on the other side.
Taking it all into consideraton,
Love's a game I never win.
I've been in very similar situations,
Again and again and again

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #144 Hello Goodbye

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #143 She's Leaving Home

2011-04-25T09:02:00.002-03:00

Uma das músicas mais legais dos Beatles: She's leaving home. Poucas vezes tocada em shows pelo Paul, uma pena. Aqui, vídeo gravado na Praça Vermelha, em Moscou.

She's Leaving Home
Lennon/McCartney

Wednesday morning at five o´clock as the day begins
Silently closing her bedroom door
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more
She goes downstairs to the kitchen
Clutching her handkerchief
Quietly turning the backdoor key
Stepping outside she is free

She
We gave her most of our lives
Is leaving
Sacrified most of our lives
Home
We gave her everything money could buy
She´s leaving home after living alone
For so many years

Father snores as his wife gets into
Her dressing gown
Picks up the letter that´s lying there
Standing alone at the top of the stairs
She breaks down and cries to her husband
"daddy, our baby is gone"
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly?
How could she do this to me?

She
We never thought of ourselves
Is leaving
Never a thought of ourselves
Home
We struggled hard all our lives to get by
She´s leaving home after living alone
For so many years

Friday morning at nine o´clock she is far away
Waiting to keep the appointment she made
Meeting a man from the motor trade

She
What did we do that was wrong?
Is having
We didn´t know it was wrong
Fun
Fun is the one thing that money can´t buy
Something inside that was always denied
For so many years

She´s leaving home, bye, bye

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #142 Please Please Me

2011-04-20T09:26:00.003-03:00

Uma do começo dos Beatles, para embalar o feriado: Please Please Me, versão anos 2010. Muito boa!

Please Please Me
Lennon/McCartney

Last night I said these words to my girl
I know you never even try, girl
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Please, please me, wo yeah, like I please you

You don't need me to show the way, love
Why do I always gave to sat, love
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Please, please me, wo yeah, like I please you

I don't want to sound complaining
but you know there's always rain in my heart
I do all the pleasing with you,
it's so hard to reason with you
wo yeah, why do you make me blue?

Last night I said these words to my girl
I know you never even try, girl
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Please, please me, wo yeah, like I please you
wo yeah, like I please you
wo yeah, like I please you

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #141 Your Mother Should Know

2011-04-19T10:36:00.004-03:00

Esta música é do álbum Magical Mistery Tour, dos Beatles. O filme é muito louco, mas o trechinho em que aparece a música nem tanto. Gosto bastante.

Your Mother Should Know
Lennon/McCartney

Ooh..
Let's all get up and dance to a song
That was a hit before your mother was born.
Though she was born a long, long time ago,
Your mother should know. (Your mother should..)
Your mother should know. (Know..)
Sing it again.

Let's all get up and dance to a song

Mais uma dos Beatles, para fechar a semana com alto astral: Good Day Sunshine.

Good Day Sunshine
Lennon/McCartney

Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine
I need to laugh and when the sun is out
I've got something I can laugh about
I feel good in a special way
I'm in love and it's a sunny day
Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine
We take a walk, the sun is shining down
Burns my feet as I touch the ground
Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #139 Ain't She Sweet

2011-04-14T09:26:00.001-03:00

Uma das primeiras músicas gravadas pelos Beatles, aqui num vídeo recente, com o Paul, o Ringo e o George, pouco antes de ele morrer. Muito comovente

Ain't She Sweet?
Jack Yellen/Milton Ager

Oh ain't she sweet,
Well see her walking down that street.
Yes I ask you very confidentially:
Ain't she sweet?
Oh ain't she nice,
Well look her over once or twice.
Yes I ask you very confidentially:
Ain't she nice?
Just cast an eye
In her direction.
Oh me oh my,
Ain't that perfection?
Oh I repeat
Well don't you think that's kind of neat?
Yes I ask you very confidentially:
Ain't she sweet?
Oh ain't she sweet,
Well see her walking down that street.
Well I ask you very confidentially:
Ain't she sweet?
Oh ain't that nice,
Well look it over once or twice.
Yes I ask you very confidentially:
Ain't she nice?
Just cast an eye
In her direction.
Oh me oh my,
Ain't that perfection?
Oh I repeat
Well don't you think that's kind of neat?
Yes I ask you very confidentially:
Ain't she sweet?
Oh ain't she sweet,
Well see her walking down that street.
Well I ask you very confidentially:
Ain't she sweet?

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #138 Yesterday, Here There and Everywhere e Wanderlust

2011-04-13T09:07:00.001-03:00

A única inédita deste medley é Here, There and Everywhere, mas gosto demais desse trechinho do filme Give My Regards to Broad Street.

Here, There And Everywhere
Lennon/McCartney

To lead a better life, I need a love of my own
Here,
Making each day of the year
Changing my life with a wave of her hand
Nobody can deny that there's something there
I want her everywhere
And if she's beside me I know I need never care
But to love her is to meet her everywhere,
Knowing that love is to share,
Each one believing that love never dies
Watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there
I will be here, there and everywhere
Here, there and everywhere

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #137 No Values

2011-04-12T09:47:00.002-03:00

Do disco e do filme Give My Regards to Broad Street, um rock legal, com a participação especial do Ringo Starr. Muito bom.

No Values
Paul McCartney

I hear them telling me that you're selling off the furniture
And even keep my personalized autographs
You might as well go all the way and sell your granny to the zoo
And while you're at it, may I go to my psychiatrist ?
He's making money out of making me laugh
But I don't mind , I wish that I could say the same about you
It seems to me that you've still got no values
Oh you know you're not so hot, no values
And I'll be glad if you went away again
No values . . . no values . . . no values at all
The city shark is at the dark and of the alleyway
You pays your money and you takes your choice
The artful dodger says he wants to pick a pocket or two
But you, you've taken up a place in high society
A personal friend of messrs rolls and royce
Got them all convinced that everything you say to them is true
It seems to me that you've still got no values
Oh you know you're not so hot, no values
You know you've got a lot, but no values
And I'd be glad if you went away again
No values . . . no values . . . no values at all
I like your wife's smile, I like her car
If I had your lifestyle, I wouldn't go far wrong
On the waters of life you row your boat
Into the strongest tide that you can find
On the darkest of nights we were two of a kind
We went through it all before the tide went out
And left us stranded on the shore
How was I to know
How was I to know
Well you ain't got no values
You know you think you're hot, no values
You know you've got a lot, but no values
And I'd be glad if you went away again
No values . . . no values . . . no values at all

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #136 All You Need Is Love

2011-04-11T09:10:00.001-03:00

Para começar a semana, uma das minhas preferidas dos Beatles, que fala de algo que vale a pena sempre lembrar: All You Need Is Love. É o amor que de fato move o mundo, é a falta dele que causa todos os nossos problemas. O vídeo de cima é o original dos Beatles e o de baixo, um mais atual, com participações especiais do Rod Stewart e do Joe Cocker.

All You Need is Love
Lennon/McCartney

Love, Love, Love.
Love, Love, Love.
Love, Love, Love.

There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung.
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game.
It's easy.

Nothing you can make that can't be made.
No one you can save that can't be saved.
Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time.
It's easy.

All you need is love.
All you need is love.
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need.

All you need is love.
All you need is love.
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need.

Nothing you can know that isn't known.
Nothing you can see that isn't shown.
Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be.
It's easy.

All you need is love.
All you need is love.
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need.

All you need is love (Paul: All together, now!)
All you need is love. (Everybody!)
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need (love is all you need).

Yee-hai!
Oh yeah!
She loves you, yeah yeah yeah.
She loves you, yeah yeah yeah.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #134 No Other Baby

2011-04-07T09:55:00.001-03:00

Muito boa a regravação de No Other Baby pelo Paul. O vídeo é bem bacana.

No Other Baby
Bishop/Watson

But I don't want no other baby but you, I don't want no other baby but you,
cause no other baby can thrill me like you do.

Got a little woman, lives across the hall, I got a little woman, she lives across the hall
and most every evening she's asking me to call.
But I don't want no other baby but you, I don't want no other baby but you,
cause no other baby can thrill me like you do.

But lots of other women say be my daddy do, yeah, lots of other women say be my daddy do,
but I tell them I don't want no other baby like you.
I said, I don't want no other baby but you, I don't want no other baby but you,
cause no other baby can thrill me like you do.

I've Got A Full Gas Tank
And It's Only A Mile
'Till I'll Bee With My Little Woman
I'm Ready To See Her.

So I Say ...
Bye Bye Melancholy Listen To Me
We Had A Long Long Ride

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #132 Lonesome Town

2011-04-05T09:05:00.001-03:00

Um blues dos bons, uma interpretação maravilhosa e um vídeo nota 10: Lonesome Town.

Lonesome Town
Knight

There's a place where lovers go
To cry their troubles away
And we call it Lonesome Town
Where the broken hearts stay

You can buy a dream or two
To last you all through the years
And the only price you pay
Is a heart full of tears

Going down to Lonesome Town,
Where the broken hearts stay
I'm going down to Lonesome Town,
To cry my troubles away

And in the town of broken dreams
The streets are filled with regret
Maybe down in Lonesome Town
Well I can learn to forget

Lead solo

Going down to Lonesome Town,
Where the lonely hearts stay
I'm going down to Lonesome Town,
To cry, to cry my troubles away

And in the town of broken dreams
The streets are filled with regret
Maybe down in Lonesome Town
I can learn to forget

Maybe down in Lonesome Town
I can learn to forget

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #131 I Owe It All To You

2011-04-04T09:53:00.002-03:00

Uma balada para começar a semana: I Owe it All to You.

I Owe It All To You
Paul McCartney

Last Night You Helped Me Through,
Took Me To The Lovers Zone
I Saw There, Images
Projected On A Wall Of Stone
I Stood Inside Egyptian Temples,
I Looked Into Eternal Gardens,
Lay On The Shores Of Distant Islands,
Listening To The Sea Birds Song Of Joy.

Oh, I Owe It All To You,
You Make Me Happy,
Oh, I Owe It All To You.

Late Last Night, We Were Right
Into Some Exotic Scene.
Everywhere, Images
Appearing On A Giant Screen.
I Stood Inside A Glass Cathedral,
I Looked Into The Golden Canyon,
Lay By The Lakes Of Holy Water
Glistening Like A Diamond In The Light.

Oh, I Owe It All To You,
You Make Me Happy,
Oh, I Owe It All To You.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #130 Baby's Request

2011-04-01T09:41:00.000-03:00

Baby's Request tem o estilo dos standards americanos, apesar de ser com os Wings. O vídeo é muito legal, parece saído dos anos 50, época das big bands.

Baby's Request
Paul McCartney

When the moon lays his head on a pillow
And the stars settle down for a rest,
Just do me one small favor, I beg you,
Please play me my baby's request.

It's the song that we heard when we started.
Now the birds have all flown from our nest,
But you could bring back mem'ries departed
By playing my baby's request.

My baby said
That she knows how it goes
But you're the one who really knows,
So go ahead

Just one more time and then we'll go to bed.

But you could bring back mem'ries departed
By playing my baby's request.

My baby says
That she knows how it goes but you're the one that really knows.
So go ahead
Just one more time and then we'll go to bed.

When the moon lays his head on a pillow
And the star settles down for a rest,
Just do me one small favour, I beg you,
Please play me baby's request.
Mh-hm, play me baby's request.
Please! Play me my baby's request -- one more time.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #129 Winter Rose - Love Awake

2011-03-31T09:29:00.001-03:00

Outra com os Wings. Acho a música meio arrastada, mas vale o vídeo, da época.

Winter Rose/Love Awake
Paul McCartney
All through the summer I have followed you around
Bringing a rose for the winter that's coming
Now the snow is on the ground.
Winter rose. Winter rose.
Shine your light in the air.
Winter rose. Winter rose.
Skine your light everywhere.
Love awake. Toll the bell.
Tell the world how glad you are.
Love awake to the day
When we can make our love awake.

Lord knows we need it any time we can get it.
But if we forget it every now and then.
But if you don't feel it, later on you'll regret it.
And if we let it we could set it free, you and me.

Love awake. Tone the bell.
Tell the world how glad you are.
Love awake to the day
When we can make our love awake.

Snowfalls in the winter,
Spring brings the rain.
But it's never to long before the summer comes again.
It always comes again!

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #128 I've Had Enough

2011-03-30T09:21:00.001-03:00

Música antiga, dos Wings, e vídeo da época. Rock dos bons.

I've Had Enough
Paul McCartney

You're talking to me from the back of my car
And i can't get nothing right
And then you wonder why stand at the bar
Day and night
Chorus

I've had enough
I can't put up with any more
No no no no no no no
I've had enough
I can't put up with any more
No no no no no no no

You stand behind me with a watch in your hand
And i can't get nothing done
Well, people tell me you're punctual man
But come on

I earn the money and you take it away
When i don't know where you're from
I should be worried but they say
It'll pay for a bomb

I've had enough

Baby you know sometimes you get a little weary
But if it ever happens honey
You just come along to me
Because you know

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #127 Why So Blue

2011-03-29T10:07:00.003-03:00

Why So Blue é do disco Memory Almost Full. Uma balada típica do Paul, na melodia e na letra.

Why So Blue
Paul McCartney

Staring from a cradboard castle down and out
One of life's young students find what its all about
Paper flutters angry taxi drivers shout

From the pages of a paper candles shine
On a perfect table laid for two who love to dine
They suggest a highly recommended wine
Once again the same old line

Why so sad
My fine young friend
Why so blue

Weary carriage horses stand in single file
Someone at a crowded bus stop wears a friendly smile
Touching nerves that no one's heard from in a while
Papers from the same old file

Why so sad
My fine young friend
Why so blue

Sometimes when eyes meet
You know
They have to meet again
Sometimes birds of a feather
Got to fly
Together oh

From a dingy attic window candles shine
On a perfect table laid for two who love to dine
Now they drink the highly recommended wine
Free at last and feeling fine

I'm so glad (I am so glad)
My (It's not so bad)
fine (It's not the end)
young (I am the friend)
friend (I am the friend)
Glad for you

Well I'm so glad (I'd be so sad)
My (It's not so bad)
fine (It's not the end)
young (I am the friend)
friend (I am the friend)
Glad for you

You used to be so blue
You used to be so blue
Why so blue

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #126 Anyway

2011-03-28T09:49:00.000-03:00

Uma balada linda do disco Chaos and Creation on the Backyard. Realmente, esse é um dos CDs mais lindos do Paul. Pena que não tem um vídeo bacana.

Anyway
Paul McCartney

If you love me, won't you call me
I've been waiting, waiting to long
In my soul is, constant yearning
Always singing, singing this song

Only love is strong enough, to take it on the chin
When did I begin, to fall

Anyway, Anyway, you can make, that call
You feel free, to make yourself, at home - woh-oh, ahhhhhh, ohhhhh

If we could be, closer longer
That would help me, help me so much
We can cure eachother's sorrow
Won't you please, please, please get in touch

If our love is strong enough, it may never end
Why would I pretend, to fall, woo-ew

Anyway, Anyway, you can make, that call
You feel free, to make yourself, at home - woh-oh, ahhhhhh

Anyway, Anyway, Anyway, at all
Anyway, you can make that call

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #125 We're open tonight

2011-03-25T18:30:00.003-03:00

Depois de uma longa ausência, duas músicas em um medley dos Wings: We´re open tonight e To You.

We're Open Tonight
Paul McCartney

We're open tonight for fun
So bring all your friends, come on.
We're open tonight, come one, come all.
We're opening all our doors,
We're clearing back all the floors.
We're open tonight, come one, come all.
Ooh. Whoo.
Come one, come all.

To You
Paul McCartney

Well if the same thing happened to you
Would you still put me through what you put me through?
If it happened to you. What if it happened to you?

What if it happened a man kept shaking you down
But you can't get a ride to his side of town?
If it happened to you. What if it happened to you?

What if happened to you? Keep it out of my shoes.
And if you're stepping on toes, keep it outta my nose.

'Cos if the same thing happened to me
Well, it won't be as bad as it used to be.
If it happened toyou. What if it happened to you?
What if it happened to you?
What if it happened to you?
What if it happened to you, too?

What if it happens to you?
What if it happens to you?

What if happens to you? Keep it out of my shoes.
and if you're stepping on toes, keep it outta my nose.

'Cos if the same thing happened to me
Well, it won't be as bad as it used to be.
If it happened to you. What if it happened to you?
What if it happened to you?
What am I going to do?
What if it happened to you?
Well, what if happened to you?

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #124 All Shook Up

2011-03-17T09:27:00.001-03:00

Paul e outros dinossauros do rock interpretando uma clássica do rei Elvis: All Shook Up.

All Shook Up
Blackwell/Presley

A well I bless my soul
What's wrong with me?
I'm itching like a man on a fuzzy tree
My friends say I'm actin' wild as a bug
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Mm mm oh, oh, yeah, yeah!

My hands are shaky and my knees are weak
I can't seem to stand on my own two feet
Who do you thank when you have such luck?
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Mm mm oh, oh, yeah, yeah!

Please don't ask me what's on my mind
I'm a little mixed up, but I'm feelin' fine
When I'm near that girl that I love best
My heart beats so it scares me to death!

She touched my hand what a chill I got
Her lips are like a vulcano that's hot
I'm proud to say she's my buttercup
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Mm mm oh, oh, yeah, yeah!

My tongue get tied when I try to speak
My insides shake like a leaf on a tree
There's only one cure for this body of mine
That's to have the girl that I love so fine!

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #123 Kicked Around No More

2011-03-16T12:05:00.004-03:00

Uma balada bonita do disco Off The Ground. Pena que não tem videoclipe. E que não estou conseguindo postar todo dia. :(

Kicked Around No More
Paul McCartney

Take my blessings with you when you go,
I don't wanna know no more.
Head to toe, from top to bottom
I've been kicked around,
Don't wanna be kicked around no more

I'll be thinking of you when you go,
Take a walk along the shore.
Why should I pretend that nothing is the matter now?
Don't wanna be kicked around no more

My life could be so sweet,
I can't remember when I started running.
The water underneath the bridge can't keep a secret,
She's still running home.

Take my blessing with you when you go,
To the next one you adore, ooh.
Head to toe, from top to bottom
I've been kicked around,
Ain't gonna be kicked around no more

Don't wanna be kicked around,
Ain't gonna be kicked around,
Don't wanna be kicked around no more.

My life could be so sweet,
I can't remember when I started running.
The water underneath the bridge can't keep a secret,
I'm not running now.

Take my blessing with you when you go,
I don't wanna know no more.
Head to toe, from top to bottom
I've been kicked around,
Don't wanna be kicked around no more

Don't wanna be kicked around,
Ain't gonna be kicked around,
Don't wanna be kicked around no more.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #122 Heart of the Country

2011-03-10T10:04:00.000-03:00

Depois de um Carnaval no campo, uma música que fala desse tema: Heart of the Country, do disco Ram, de 1971. O vídeo é muito legal, com o Paul e a Linda na fazenda deles.

Heart Of The Country
Paul McCartney

I Look High, I Look Low,
I'm Lookin' Everywhere I Go,

In The Heart Of The Country.

Heart Of The Country
Where The Holy People Grow,
Heart Of The Country,
Smell The Grass In The Meadow.

Wo Wo Wo.

Want Horse, I Want Sheep,
I Want To Get Me A Good Night's Sleep,
Livin ' In A Home
In The Heart Of The Country.

L'm Gonna Go, I'm Gonna Go,
L'm Gonna Tell Everyone I Know
Livin' In A Home
In The Heart Of The Country.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #121 Golden Earth Girl

2011-03-03T08:00:00.004-03:00

Uma linda música do disco Off The Ground, Golden Earth Girl. Infelizmente não tem vídeo, mas só o áudio é maravilhoso.

Golden Earth Girl
Paul McCartney

Golden Earth Girl, Female Animal
Sings To The Wind, Resting At Sunset
In A Mossy Nest
Sensing Moonlight In The Air
(Moonlight In The Air)

Good Clear Water Friend Of Wilderness
Sees In The Pool Her Own Reflection.
In Another World
Someone Over There Is Counting.

Fish In A Sunbeam,
In Eggshell Seas.
Fish In A Sunbeam.
Eggshell Finish.

Natures Lover Climbs The Primrose Hill,
Smiles At The Sky Watching The Sunset
From A Mossy Nest.
As She Falls Asleep She's Counting ...

Fish In A Sunbeam,
In Eggshell Seas.
Fish In A Sunbeam.
Eggshell Finish.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #120 Mamunia

2011-03-02T08:52:00.004-03:00

Mamunia é uma das músicas do Band On The Run. Muito legal, assim como o vídeo, uma animação no estilo do Yellow Submarine. Gosto da letra também - um jeito legal de ver a chuva. Aliás, ontem, foi como encarei a chuva com a minha filha. Saímos de capa e galochas pulando poças e nos divertindo com a água. Muito bom voltar a ser criança ao lado dela.

Mamunia
Paul McCartney

Mamunia mamunia mamunia
Oh oh oh
Mamunia mamunia oh oh oh oh

The rain comes falling from the sky,
To fill the stream that fills the sea
And that's where life began for you and me

So the next time you see rain it ain't bad,
Don't complain it rains for you,
The next time you see l.a. Rainclouds,
Don't complain it rains for you and me

Mamunia mamunia mamunia
Oh oh oh
Mamunia mamunia oh oh oh oh

It might have been a bright blue day
But rainclouds had to come this way
They're watering everything that they can see.

A seed is waiting in the earth
For rain to come and give him free,
So the next time you see l.a. Rainclouds
Don't complain, it rains for you.

So lay down your umbrellas
Strip off your plastic macs.
You've never felt the rain my friend,
Till you've felt it running down your back

So the next time you see rain, it ain't bad
Don't complain, it rains for you.
The next time you see l.a. Rainclouds
Don't complain it rains for you and me.

Mamunia mamunia mamunia
Oh oh oh
Mamunia mamunia oh oh oh

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #119 Singing the Blues

2011-02-28T10:09:00.002-03:00

Mais uma música do Unplugged, um blues maravilhoso: Singing the Blues.

Singing The Blues
Paul McCartney

Well, I never felt more like singing the blues
And I never thought
that I'd ever lose your love
Why did you do me this way?
Well, I never felt more like crying all night
Everything's wrong
But nothing is right without you
You've got me singing the blues
Well, the moon and the stars no longer shine
The dream is gone I thought was mine
There's nothing left for me to do
But cry-i-i-i over you
Cry over you
Well, I never felt more like running away
And why shouldn't I go
'Cause I couldn't stay without you
You've got me singing the blues.
Well, the moon and the stars no longer shine
The dream is gone I thought was mine
There's nothing left for me to do
But cry-i-i-i over you
Cry over you
Well, I never felt more like running away
And why shouldn't I go
'Cause I couldn't stay without you
You've got me singing the blues
(Mr. Paul Wiggins, Come on Paul)
Well, the moon and the stars no longer shine
The dream is gone I thought was mine
There's nothing left for me to do
But cry-i-i-i over you
Cry over you
Well, I never felt more like running away
And why shouldn't I go
'Cause I couldn't stay without you
You've got me singing the blues
You've got me singing the blues
You've got me singing the blues, ooh

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #118 House of Wax

2011-02-25T09:38:00.001-03:00

Música de 2007, do disco Memory Almost Full. Gosto muito do piano e da melodia.

House of Wax
Paul McCartney

Lightning hits the house of wax
Poets spill out on the street
To set alight the incomplete
Remainders of the future

Hidden in the yard. Hidden in the yard.

Thunder drowns the trumpets blast
Poets scatter through the night
But they can only dream of flight
Away from their confusion

Hidden in the yard. Undemeath the wall
Buried deep below a thousand layers lay
The answer to it all

Lightning hits the house of wax
Woman scream and run around
To dance upon the battleground
Like wild demented horses

Hidden in the yard. Undemeath the wall
Buried deep below a thousand layers lay
The answer to it all

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #117 Ever Present Past

2011-02-24T09:14:00.000-03:00

Este vídeo é engraçado, com uma coreografia meio desengonçada do Paul.

Ever Present Past
Paul McCartney

I've got too much on my plate
Don't have no time to be a decent lover
I hope it isn' too late
Searching for the time that has gone so fast
The time that I thought would last
My ever present past

I've got too much on my mind
I think of every thing to be discovered
I hope there's something to find
Searching for the time that has gone so fast
The time that I thought would last
My ever present past

But things I think I did
I do, I think I did
But the things I think I did
When I was a kid

I couldn't understand a word that they were saying
But still I hung around and took it all in
I wouldn't join them in the games that they were playing
It went by, it went by
in a flash
It flew by, it flew by
in a flash

Ther's far too much on my plate
Don't have no time to be a decent lover
I hope it's never too late
Searching for the time that has gone so fast
The time that I thought would last
My ever present past

For things I think I did
I do, I think I did
The things I think I did when I was a kid

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #116 Too Much Rain

2011-02-23T09:07:00.001-03:00

Mais uma do Chaos and Creation, realmente um disco especial: Too Much Rain.

Too Much Rain
Paul McCartney

Laugh, when your eyes are burning
Smile, when your heart is filled with pain

Sigh, as you brush away your sorrow
Make a vow, that's it's not going to happen again

It's not right, in one life
Too much rain

You, know the wheels keep turning
Why, do the tears run down your face

We, use to hide away our feelings
But for now, tell yourself it won't happen again

It's not right, in one life
Too much rain

It's too much for anyone, Too hard for anyone
Who wants a happy and peaceful life
You've gotta learn to laugh

(guitar solo)
Smile, when your spinning round and round
Sigh, as you think about tomorrow
Make a vow, that your gonna be happy again

It's all right, in your life
No more rain

It's too much for anyone, Too hard for anyone
Who wants a happy and peaceful life
You've gotta learn to laugh

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #115 English Tea

2011-02-22T09:58:00.000-03:00

Uma das músicas do mais perfeito estilo Paul: English Tea. Do disco Chaos and Creation, também um dos seus melhores. Linda letra, linda melodia.

English Tea
Paul McCartney
Composição: Paul McCartney
Would you care to sit with me
For a cup of English tea
Very twee, very me
Any sunny morning

What a pleasure it would be
Chatting so delightfully
Nanny bakes, fairy cakes
Every Sunday morning

Miles of miles of English garden, stretching past the willow tree
Lines of holly, hocks and roses, listen most attentively

Do you know the game crochet
Peradventure we might play
Very gay, hip hooray
Any sunny morning

(solo)

Miles of miles of English garden, stretching past the willow tree
Lines of holly, hocks and roses, listen most attentively

As a rule the church bells chime
When it's almost supper time
Nanny bakes, fairy cakes
On a Sunday morning

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #114 Jenny Wren

2011-02-21T09:39:00.000-03:00

Uma música delicada, do disco Chaos and Creation, de 2005: Jenny Wren. O vídeo é lindo, só voz e violão.

Jenny Wren
Paul McCartney

Like so many girls,
Jenny Wren could sing.
But a broken heart took her song away.

Like the other girls,
Jenny Wren took wing.
She could see the world,
And its foolish ways.

How we spend our days,
casting love aside
losing sight of life, day by day.

She saw poverty,
breaking all her home.
Wounded warriors took her song away.

But the day will come, Jenny Wren will sing.
When this broken world mends its foolish ways

Then we spend our days catching up our life,
All because of you, Jenny Wren.
You saw who we are, Jenny Wren.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #113 Fine Line

2011-02-18T09:47:00.002-02:00

Gosto do vídeo desta música porque mostra o Paul como ele é: multitalentoso. Um bom som para a sexta.

Fine Line
Paul McCartney

There is a fine line between recklessness and courage
It's about time, you understood which road to take
It's a fine line, your decision makes a difference
Get it wrong, you'll be making a big mistake

Come on brother, all is forgiven
We all cried when you were driven away
Come on brother, everything is better
Everything is better when you come home and stay

Whatever's more important to you
You've got to change what you wanna do
Whatever's more important to be
That's the view that you've gotta see

There is a long way, between chaos and creation
If you don't say, which one of these your gonna choose
It's a long way, and in every contradiction
Seems to say it's a game that your bound to loose

Come on brother, all is forgiven
We all cried when you were driven away
Come on brother, everything is better
Everything is better when you come home and stay

Come on back
Come on back
Come on back to me

It's a fine line
It's a fine line

Whatever's more important to you
You've got to choose what you wanna do
Whatever's more important to be
Well that's the view that you've gotta see

It's a fine line
It's a fine line
Whatever's more important to you (It's a fine line)
You got to choose what you want to do
Whatever's more important to be (It's a fine line)
That's the thing that you gotta see
It's a fine line

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #110 The World Tonight

2011-02-15T10:13:00.000-02:00

Outra música do Flaming Pie. Não está entre as minhas favoritas, mas o vídeo é muito engraçado. As roupas, a dancinha, o rádio no ombro - hilários.

The World Tonight
Paul McCartney

I saw you sitting at the centre of the circle
Everybody, everybody wanted something from you
I saw you sitting there

I saw you swaying to the rhythm of the music
Caught you playing, caught you praying to the voice inside you
I saw you swaying there

I don't care what you want to be
I go back so far I'm in front of me!
It doesn't matter what they say
They're giving the game away

I can see the world tonight
Look into the future
See it in a different light
I can see the world tonight

I heard you listening to a secret conversation
You were crying, you were trying not to let them hear you
I heard you listening in

Never mind what they want to do
You've got a right to your point of view!
It doesn't matter what they say
They're giving the game away

I can see the world tonight
Look into the future
See it in a different light
I can see the world tonight

I can see the world tonight

I saw you hiding from a flok of paparazzi
You were hoping, you were hoping that the ground would swallowyou
I saw you hiding there

I don't care what you want to be
I go back so far I'm in front of me!
It doesn't matter what they say
They're giving the game away

I can see the world tonight
Look into the future
See it in a different light
I can see the world tonight

Look into the future
I can see the world tonight
See it in a different light

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #109 Hope of Deliverance

2011-02-14T12:18:00.003-02:00

Gosto dessa música e desse vídeo do Paul, de uma fase bacana dele - e minha. Boas lembranças, e ainda mais do show que ele fez por aqui em 1994.

Hope Of Deliverance
Paul McCartney

I will always be hoping, hoping.
You will always be holding, holding
My heart in your hand.
I will understand

I will understand someday, one day.
You will understand always, always
From now until then.

When it will be right, I don´t know.
What it will be like, I don´t know.
We live in hope of deliverance
From the darkness that surrounds us.

Hope of deliverance, hope of deliverance
Hope of deliverance from the darkness
That surrounds us.

And I wouldn´t mind knowing, knowing
That you wouldn´t mind going,
Going along with my plan.

When it will be right, I don´t know.
What it will be like, I don´t know.
We live in hope of deliverance
From the darkness that surrounds us.

Hope of deliverance, hope of deliverance
Hope of deliverance from the darkness
That surrounds us.

Hope of deliverance.
Hope of deliverance.
I will understand

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #108 Sing the Changes

2011-02-11T11:40:00.000-02:00

Uma música do The Fireman, projeto de música eletrônica do Paul: Sing The Changes. Gosto da inquietude e da flexibilidade dele, sempre experimentando coisas novas. O vídeo é bem bacana, a música também. Ele tem realmente "a sense of childlike wonder".

Sing The Changes
The Fireman

Like the sun playing
In the morning
Feel the quiet
Feel the thunder
Oh every ladder
Leads to heaven
Call it ransom
Draw the picture

Sing the changes
Oh as you're sleeping
Feel the quiet
In the thunder
Sing the changes
Calling over
Feel the quiet
In the thunder

Like the sun playing
In the morning
Feel the quiet
Feel the thunder
Oh every ladder
Leads to heaven
Colored pencils
Draw the picture

Sing your praises
As you're sleeping
Sing the changes
Any wonder
Feel the sense of
Childlike wonder
Sing your praises
As you're sleeping
Sing the changes
Oh as you're sleeping
Feel the quiet
In the thunder
Sing the changes
Calling over
Feel the quiet
In the thunder
Sing your praises
As you're sleeping
Feel the quiet
In the thunder
Sing the changes
Calling over
Everybody has a sense of
Childlike wonder

Sense of wonder
Sing your praises
As you're sleeping
Feel the quiet
In the thunder
Sing the changes
Calling over
Everybody has a sense of childlike wonder

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #107 Young Boy

2011-02-10T09:17:00.001-02:00

Uma das músicas do disco Flaming Pie, um dos meus favoritos do Paul. Não é uma balada, mas também fala de amor. Que, com certeza, ele tem muito para dar.

Young Boy
Paul McCartney

He's just a young boy Looking for a way to find love
It isn't easy, nothing you can say will help him, Find love
He's got to do it for himself and it can take so long
He just a young boy Looking for a way to find love

He doesn't need another helping hand from someone
But don't you think he doesn't understand what he wants, Someone
Though independence means a lot he got to still be strong
He just a young boy Looking for a way to find love

Find Love, a perfect combination
Find Love, whatever you do
Find Love, a cause for celebration
Then it might come looking, come looking for you

Find love in any situation
Find Love, whatever you do
Find Love, a cause for celebration
And it might come looking, come looking for you

He's just a young boy Looking for a way to find love
It isn't easy nothing you can say will help him, Find love
He's got to do it for himself and it can take so long
He's just a young boy Looking for a way to find love

Find love, a time for meditation
Find love, a source for inspiration
Find love, instead of confrontation
And love will come looking for you

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #106 Honey Hush

2011-02-09T09:21:00.000-02:00

Um R&B animado, de um show de 1999, com o Paul e o Dave Gilmour, do Pink Floyd. Muito bom.

Honey Hush
Big Joe Turner

Well, come into this house, stop all that yakety yak,
I said, come into this house, stop all that yakety yak,
cause your sugar daddy don't want no talking back.

Well, you keep on talking, talking about this and that,
yeah, you keep on talking, talking about this and that,
I got news for you, baby, you're nothing but an alley cat.

Well, it's a hi ho, hi ho silver, hi ho, hi ho silver, hi ho, hi ho silver,
hi ho, hi ho silver, hi ho, hi ho silver away-hey.

Turn off the waterworks, baby, they don't move me no more,
turn off the waterworks, baby, they don't move me no more,
well, believe me, baby, I ain't coming back no more.

I said, come into this house, stop all that yakety yak,
yeah, come into this house, woman, stop all that yakety yak,
oh, don't make me nervous, I'm holding a baseball bat.
Well, it's a hi ho, hi ho silver, hi ho, hi ho silver, hi ho, hi ho silver,
hi ho, hi ho silver, hi ho, hi ho silver away-hey

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #105 My Soul

2011-02-08T09:01:00.000-02:00

Paul escreveu My Soul quando acabou o seu casamento com a Heather Mills. Apesar de tudo, delicado até o fim. A música foi gravada com a cantora Nitin Sawhney.

My Soul
Paul McCartney

I long to know
All your secrets
I want to walk
Through your fire
Light up my eyes
With your smile
I was awakened
By magic

I was alone
In this world
Take me away from here
Life spinning round
At a blistering pace
I've been shot
From a gun
To your final embrace
My soul, your heart
Two worlds
Apart

This life
Is all we have
How could this steal
All these feelings
How could they lie
To this world
A picture away
From your smile

Life spinning round
At a blistering pace
I've been shot
From a gun
To your final embrace
My soul, your heart
Two worlds
Apart

This life
Is all we have
One soul displaced
One heart replaced
Feelings defaced
Invade our space
No one left
To give us
Back our time

We could climb
Every mountain
Swim to every sea
When the all world
Is asleep
We can set
Ourselves free
My soul, your heart
Two worlds
Apart

This life
Is all we have
Mmm
Yeah, yeah
We could climb
Every mountain
Swim to every sea

When all the world
Is asleep
We can set
Ourselves free
We could climb
Every mountain
Swim to every sea

When all the world
Is asleep
We can set
Ourselves free
My soul, your heart
Two worlds
Apart this life
Ooooh

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #104 Somedays

2011-02-04T09:38:00.000-02:00

Uma balada do disco Flaming Pie, para encerrar a semana.

Somedays
Paul McCartney

Somedays I look,
I look at you with eyes that shine.
Somedays I don't,
I don't believe that you are mine.

It's no good asking me what time of day it is,
Who won the match or scored the goal.
Somedays I look,
Somedays I look into your soul.

Sometimes I laugh,
I laugh to think how young we were.
Sometimes it's hard,
It's hard to know which way to turn.

Don't ask me where I found that picture on the wall,
How much it cost or what it's worth.
Sometimes I laugh,
I laugh to think how young we were.

We don't need anybody else
To tell us what is real.
Inside each one of us is love,
And we know how it feels.

Somedays I cry,
I cry for those who live in fear.
Somedays I don't,
I don't remember why I'm here.

No use reminding me, it's just the way it is,
Who ran the race and came in first.
Somedays I cry,
I cry for those who fear the worst.

We don't need anybody else
To tell us what is real.
Inside each one of us is love,
And we know how it feels.

Somedays I look,
I look at you with eyes that shine.
Somedays I don't,
I don't believe that you are mine.

It's no good asking me what time of day it is,
Who won the match or scored the goal.
Somedays I look,
Somedays I look into your soul.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #103 Words of Love

2011-02-03T09:49:00.002-02:00

Words of Love é uma música do Buddy Holly gravada pelos Beatles em 1964, no disco Beatles For Sale - de que gosto muito. A versão acústica da música, neste vídeo, ficou delicada, como a letra.

Words Of Love
Buddy Holly

Hold me close and tell me how you feel
Tell me love is real
Words of love you whisper soft and true
Darling I love you
Let me hear you say
the words I long to hear
Darling when you're near
Words of love you whisper soft and true
Darling I love you.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #102 We Got Married

2011-02-01T11:11:00.006-02:00

Ontem, mostrei a agenda que escrevi aos 15 anos de idade para minha filha. Foi engraçado ver as coisas que eu fazia e pensava em meados dos anos 80. E no dia 13 de março, estava anotado que era o dia do casamento do Paul e da Linda. Duas coincidências: uma, esse é o dia do aniversário do meu marido, Alexandre; a outra foi que hoje, ao pesquisar os vídeos do Paul, dei de cara com o da música We Got Married, que tem uma letra muito legal. E que, por sinal, mostra as fãs de um show dos anos 80. Revival completo!

We Got Married
Paul McCartney

Going Fast, Coming Soon
We Made Love In The Afternoon.
Found A Flat, After That
We Got Married.
Working Hard For The Dream,
Scoring Goals For The Other Team,
Times Were Bad, We Were Glad
We Got Married.
Like The Way You Open Up Your Hearts To Each Other,
When You Find A Meeting Of The Minds.
Just As Well Love Was All We Ever Wanted,
It Was All We Ever Had.
Further On In The Game,
Waiting Up Till The Children Came.
Place Your Bets, No Regrets,
We Got Married.
We Got Married.
We Got Married.
Nowadays Every Night Flashes By
At The Speed Of Light,
Living Life, Loving Wife,
We Got Married.
I Love The Things That Happen
When We Start To Discover
Who We Are
And What We're Living For,
Just Because Love Was
All We Ever Wanted
It Was All We Ever Had.
It's Not Just A Loving Machine,
It Doesn't Work Out
If You Don't Work At It.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #101 Press

2011-01-28T12:55:00.004-02:00

O clipe de Press, com o Paul passeando pelo metrô de Londres, é muito fofo. Bom para encerrar a semana sorrindo - e sem stress, como diz a letra.

Press
Paul McCartney

Darling, I Love You Very, Very, Very Much,
And I Really Am Relying On Your Touch.
But With All These People Listening In,
I Don't Know Where I Ought To Begin.
Maybe We Could Hit Upon A Word,
Something That The Others Haven't Heard,
When You Want Me To Love You,
Just Tell Me To Press.

Right There, That's It. Yes. When You Feel The Stress
Don't Just Stand There, Tell Me To Press.

You Can Give Me What I Want I Must Confess,
My Body Needs Attention My Mind Is In A Mess,
Oklahoma Was Never Like This.
Never Like This, It Was Never Like This,
Ever Like This, Say Was It Ever Like This?
Oklahoma Was Never Like This.
It Was Never Like This ...

Darling, I Know It Really Wouldn't Be A Crime,
If I Say I Want To Lnve You All The Time.
But With All These People Listening In,
I Don't Know Where I Ought To Begin.
Maybe We Should Have A Secret Code,
Before We Both Get Ready To Explode.
When You Want Me To Love You,
Just Tell Me To Press. Press ...

Right There, That's It. Yes.
When You Feel The Stress,
Don't Just Stand There.
Won't You Tell Me To Press?

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #100 Freedom

2011-01-26T09:32:00.000-02:00

Freedom foi escrita após os atentados de 11 de setembro de 2001, em NY. Não é uma das minhas preferidas em termos musicais, mas concordo em gênero, número e grau com a letra, porque, para mim, liberdade é o bem mais precioso do ser humano - de qualquer ser humano, seja branco ou negro ou amarelo, seja heterossexual ou homossexual, seja adulto ou criança, seja cristão ou muçulmano ou budista, o que for.

Freedom
Paul McCartney

This is my right
A right given by god
To live a free life
To live in freedom

Talking about freedom
I’m talking about freedom
I will fight for the right
To live in freedom

And do you want
To try to take it away
You will have to answer
Cause this is my right

Talking about freedom
I’m talking about freedom
I will fight for your right
To live in freedom

Yeah Oh

Talking about freedom
I’m talking about freedom
I will fight for your right
To live in freedom

Everybody talking about freedom
I’m talking about freedom
We will fight for the right
To live in freedom

Oh

Talking about freedom
I’m talking about freedom
I will fight for your right
To live in freedom

Talking about freedom
I’m talking about freedom
We will fight for the right
To live in freedom

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #99 (I Want To) Come Home

2011-01-21T11:33:00.004-02:00

Parte da trilha sonora do filme Estão Todos Bem, com Robert De Niro, esta é uma das mais recentes do Paul. Delicada e linda, para variar.

(I Want To) Come Home
Paul McCartney

For so long I was out in the cold,
and I taught myself to believe every story I told.
It was fun hanging over the moon, heading into the sun,
but it's been too long.
Now I wanna come home.

Came so close to the edge of defeat.
But I made my way in the shade, keeping out of the heat.
It was fun shooting out of the stars, looking into the sun,
but it's been too long.
Now I wanna come home.

Home.
Where's there's nothing but sweet surrender,
to the memories from afar.
Home.
To the place where the truth lies waiting,
we remember who we are.

For too long I was out on my own.
Every day I spent trying to prove I could make it alone.
It was fun hanging over the moon, heading into the sun,
but it's been too long.
Now I wanna come home.

Home.

For so long I was out in the cold,
but I taught myself to believe every story I told.
It was fun hanging over the moon heading into the sun,
but it's been too long.
Now I wanna come home.

Yeah, it's been too long, now I want to come home.
Been too long, now I want to come home.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #98 End of the End

2011-01-20T09:16:00.000-02:00

End of the End é um belo último desejo do Paul. Também sempre quis que meu fim do fim seja assim.

End of the End
Paul McCartney

At the end of the end
It's the start of a journey
To a much better place
And this wasn't bad
So a much better place
Would have to be special
No need to be sad

On the day that I die I'd like jokes to be told
And stories of old to be rolled out like carpets
That children have played on
And laid on while listening to stories of old

At the end of the end
It's the start of a journey
To a much better place
And a much better place
Would have to be special
No reason to cry

[Whistling]

On the day that I die I'd like bells to be rung
And songs that were sung to be hung out like blankets
That lovers have played on
And laid on while listening to songs that were sung

At the end of the end
It's the start of a journey
To a much better place
And a much better place
Would have to be special
No reason to cry
No need to be sad
At the end of the end

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #97 Calico Skies

2011-01-19T09:31:00.002-02:00

Calico Skies é uma joia que descobri garimpando as músicas do Paul. A música é linda e o vídeo, uma graça. Para levantar o astral do dia.

PS - Pena que a Linda se foi tão cedo, um ano depois desta música ser lançada. Eu queria ver os dois envelhecendo juntos, um amor assim é tão raro...

Calico Skies
Paul McCartney

It was written that I would love you
From the moment I opened my eyes
And the morning when I first saw you
Gave me life under calico skies

I will hold you for as long as you like
I'll love you for the rest of my life

Always looking for ways to love you
Never failing to fight at your side
While the angels of love protect us
From the innermost secrets we hide

I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll love you for the rest of my life

Long live all of us crazy soldiers
Who were born under calico skies
May we never be called to handle
All the weapons of war we despise

I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my life
I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my ...
For the rest of my life

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #96 All My Trials

2011-01-18T09:25:00.000-02:00

All My Trials é uma regravação de uma antiga música folk americana. Muito legal esta versão.

All My Trials
Paul McCartney

There's only one thing that money can't buy,
True love, that will never die, oh no, no.

All my trials, Lord, soon be over.

If religion was a thing that money could buy,
Well the rich would live, and the poor would die, wo-oh.

All my trials, Lord, soon be over.

ah -
ah -

The river of Jordan is chilly and cold, yeah-hey-yeah,
Chills the body, but not the soul, yeah, oh.

All my trials, Lord, soon be over.
All my trials, Lord, soon be over.
All my trials, Lord, soon be over.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #95 London Town

2011-01-13T10:14:00.004-02:00

Uma pérola dos Wings: London Town. O vídeo é muito engraçadinho.

London Town
Paul McCartney

Walking down the sidewalk one purple afternoon,
I was accosted by a barker playing a simple tune upon his flute.
Toottoottoottoot.
Silver rain was falling down
Upon the dirty ground of london town.
People pass me by on my imaginary street,
Ordinary people it's impossible to meet,
Holding conversations that are always incomplete.
Well i don't know.

Oh, where are there places to go?
Someone, somewhere has to know.
I'don't know.

Out of work again,the actor entertains his wife
With the same old stories of his ordinary life.
Maybe he exaggerates the trouble and the strife.
Well, i don't know.

Oh, where are there places to go?
Someone, somewhere has to know.

Crawling down the pavement on a sunday afternoon,
I was arrested by a rozzer
Wearing a pink balloon about his foot.
Toot toot toot toot.
Silver rain was falling down
Upon the dirty ground of london town.

Someone, somewhere has to know.
Silver rain was falling down
Upon the dirty ground of london town.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #94 Little Willow

2011-01-12T09:28:00.000-02:00

Paul fez a música Little Willow para ajudar seus filhos a lidar com a morte de um amigo íntimo da família. Resultado: letra e melodia lindíssimas, delicadas como só ele sabe fazer.

Little Willow
Paul McCartney

Bend, little willow
Wind's gonna blow you
Hard and cold tonight

Life, as it happens
Nobody warns you
Willow, hold on tight

Nothing's gonna shake your love
Take your love away
No one's out to break your heart
It only seems that way... hey

Sleep, little willow
Peace gonna follow
Time will heal your wounds

Grow to the heavens
Now and forever
Always came too soon

Little willow

Nothing's gonna shake your love
Take your love away
No one's out to break your heart
It only seems that way... hey

Bend, little willow
Wind's gonna blow you
Hard and cold tonight

Life, as it happens
Nobody warns you
Willow, hold on tight

Ah, little willow
Little willow

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #93 Once Upon a Long Ago

2011-01-11T09:50:00.003-02:00

Ainda nas baladas, uma das mais famosas dos últimos anos: Once Upon a Long Ago.

Once Upon A Long Ago
Paul McCartney

Picking up scales and broken chords
Puppy dog tails in the House of Lords
Tell me darling
What can it mean?

Making up moons in a minor key
What have those tunes got to do with me?
Tell me darling
Where have you been?

Once upon a long ago
Children searched for treasure
Nature's plan went hand in hand
With pleasure
Such pleasure.

Blowing balloons on a windy day
Desolate dunes with a lot to say
Tell me darling
What have you seen?

Once upon a long ago
Children searched for treasure
Nature's plan went hand in hand
With pleasure
My pleasure.

Playing guitars on an empty stage
Counting the bars of an iron cage
Tell me darling
What can it mean?

Picking up scales and broken chords
Puppy dog tails in the House of Lords
Help me darling
What does it mean?

Once upon a long ago...

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #92 Distractions

2011-01-10T15:25:00.004-02:00

Uma balada delicada para começar bem a semana: Distractions. A letra é uma graça, e o vídeo também.

Distractions
Paul McCartney

What is this thing in life that persuades me to spend time away from you?
If you can answer this, you can have the moon.
This is the place to be, anyway you can see, there's a lovely view.
Why are there always so many other things to do?

Distractions,
Like butterflies are buzzing 'round my head.
When I'm alone, I think of you
And the life we'd lead if we could only be free
From these distractions...

The postman's at the door
While the telephone rings on the kitchen wall
Pretend we're not at home, and they'll disappear.
I want to be with you,
Tell me what I can do, nothing is too small...
Away from all this jazz, we could do anything at all...

Distractions,
Like butterflies are buzzing 'round my head.
When I'm alone, I think of you
And the things we'd do if we could only be through
With these distractions...

I'll find a peaceful place, far away from the noise of a busy day
Where we can spend our nights counting shooting stars...

Distractions,
Like butterflies are buzzing 'round my head.
When I'm alone, I think of you
And the things we'd do if we could only be through
With these distractions,
Like butterflies are buzzing 'round my head.
When I'm alone, I think of you
And the life we'd lead if we could only be free
From these distractions...

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #91 Blue Moon Of Kentucky

2011-01-07T14:15:00.004-02:00

Retomando as músicas do Paul, já que a ideia é colocar 365 delas, 2011 começa com Blue Moon of Kentucky, de Bill Monroe, do CD Unplugged. A música é um clássico da country music americana, gravada até por Elvis Presley, outro dos meus ídolos. Adoro!

Blue Moon Of Kentucky

Well Blue moon of Kentucky
keep on shining,
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue.
Well blue moon of Kentucky
keep on shining,
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue.

Well, it was on one moonlight night,
Well Stars shining bright,
Wind blowin' high
My Love said good-bye.
Blue moon of Kentucky
Keep on shining.
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue.

Well, it was on one moonlight night,
Stars shining bright,
Wind blowin' high
Love said good-bye.

Blue moon of Kentucky
Keep on shining.
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue.

[Uptempo]
Well Blue moon, blue moon, blue moon,
keep shining bright.
Well Blue moon, keep on shining bright,
You're gonna bring me back my baby tonight,
Blue moon, yeh keep shining bright.

Blue moon of Kentucky
keep on shining,
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue.
Well blue moon of Kentucky
keep on shining,
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue.

Well, it was on one moonlight night,
Stars shining bright,
Wind blowin' high
My Love said good-bye.

Blue moon of Kentucky
Keep on shining.
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue.
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #90 Your Way

2010-12-13T09:19:00.000-02:00

Música do CD Driving Rain, bem bacana. Infelizmente não tem vídeo, só áudio.

Your Way
Paul McCartney

I like it
Please don't take my heart away
It's happy
Where it is so let it stay
You gave me love
You gave me what I wanted
You gave me love your way

I've seen it
Shining from the furthest stars
Like Venus
Saw it on the way to Mars
You gave me love
You gave me what I wanted
You gave me love your way

Your way is strong
You way is right
Your way is mine tonight

I like it
Please don't take my heart away
It's happy
Where it is so let it stay
You gave me love
You gave me what I wanted
You gave me love your way

Your way is strong
You way is right
Your way is mine tonight

Your way is strong
You way is right
Your way is mine tonight

You gave me love your way

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #89 Midnight Special

2010-12-10T09:46:00.000-02:00

Gosto muito das músicas folk que o Paul toca. Midnight Special é uma delas. O vídeo é muito legal.

Midnight Special

Well you wake up in the morning.
Hear the ding dong ring,
You go a-marching to the table,
See the same damn thing;
Well, it's on a one table,
Knife, a fork and a pan,
And if you say anything about it,
You're in trouble with the man.

cho: Let the midnight special
Shine her light on me;
Let the midnight special
Shine her ever-loving light on me.

If you ever go to Houston.
You better walk right;
You better not stagger,
You better not fight;
Sheriff Benson will arrest you,
He'll carry you down,
And if the jury finds you guilty,
Penitentiary bound.

Yonder come little Rosie,
How in the world do you know,
l can tell her by her apron,
And the dress she wore.
Umbrella on her shoulder,
Piece of paper in her hand,
She goes a-marching to the captain,
Says, "I want my man."

"I don' believe that Rosie loves me"
"Well tell me why"
She ain't been to see me
Since las' July.
She brought me little coffee
She brought me little tea
Brought me damn near ever'thing
But the jailhouse key.

Yonder comes Doctor Adams
"How in the world do you know?"
Well he gave me a tablet
The day befo'
There ain't no doctor
In all the lan'
Can cure the fever
Of a convict man.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #88 Wonderful Christmas Time

2010-12-09T11:09:00.003-02:00

Um desejo de Feliz Natal do Paul, em vídeo do tempo dos Wings.

Wonderful Christmas Time
Paul McCartney

The mood is right, the spirit's up,
We're here tonight and that's enough.
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime,
Simply having a wonderful Christmas time.

The party's on, the feeling's here,
That only comes this time of year.
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime,
Simply having a wonderful Christmas time.

Love choir of children sing their song.

Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding,
Oo-oo-oo-oo,
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo, doo.

Love choir of children sing their song.
They've practiced all year long.

Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong,
Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong.

We're here tonight and that's enough.
Oo-oo, simply having a wonderful Christmastime,
We're simply having a wonderful Christmas time.

Oh,
Oh yeah.

We're simply having a wonderful Christmastime,
Simply having a wonderful Christmas time,
Simply having a wonderful Christmas time.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #87 Lonely Road

2010-12-08T09:57:00.001-02:00

Música mais recente, vídeo muito bem feito.

Lonely Road
Paul McCartney

I tried to get over you
I tried to find something new
But all I could ever do
Was fill my time
With thoughts of you

I tried to go somewhere old
To search for my pot of gold
But all I could ever hold
Inside my mind
Were thoughts of you

I hear your music
And it's driving me wild
Familiar rhythms
In a different style
I hear your music
And it's driving me wild again

Don't want to let you take me down
Don't want to get hurt second time around
Don't want to walk that lonely road again

I hear your music
And it's driving me wild
Familiar rhythms
In a different style
I hear your music
And it's driving me wild again

Don't want to let you take me down
Don't want to get hurt second time around
Don't want to walk that lonely road again

Don't want to let you take me down
Don't want to get hurt second time around
Don't want to walk that lonely road again

Ad lib to end

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #86 Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

2010-12-07T09:12:00.000-02:00

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Lennon/McCartney

It was twenty years ago today,
Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play
They've been going in and out of style
But they're guaranteed to raise a smile.
So may I introduce to you
The act you've known for all these years,
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
We're Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band,
We hope you will enjoy the show,
We're Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band,
Sit back and let the evening go.
Sgt. Pepper's lonely, Sgt. Pepper's lonely,
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
It's wonderful to be here,
It's certainly a thrill.
You're such a lovely audience,
We'd like to take you home with us,
We'd love to take you home.
I don't really want to stop the show,
But I thought that you might like to know,
That the singer's going to sing a song,
And he wants you all to sing along.
So let me introduce to you
The one and only Billy Shears
And Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #85 Letting go

2010-12-03T10:19:00.000-02:00

Outra do Wings presente no playlist da Up and Coming Tour: Letting Go. Vídeo muito bom.

Letting Go
Paul McCartney

Ah, she tastes like wine
Such a human being so divine
Oh she feels like sun
Mother nature look at what you’ve done
Oh I feel like letting go
Oh I feel like letting go.

Ah, she looks like snow
I wanna put her in a broadway show
Ah she’ll dance and dine
Like a lucifer she’ll always shine

Oh I feel like letting go
Oh I feel like letting go.

Oh I feel like letting go.

Ah, she sings it so
I want to put her on the radio
One day and there you are
Ladies and gentleman -
A brand new star.

Oh I feel like letting go
Oh I feel like letting go.

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #84 Nineteen Hundred and Eighty-Five

Nineteen Hundred and Eighty-Five
Paul McCartney

On no one left alive in 1985, will ever do
She may be right
She may be fine
She may get love but she won’t get mine ’cos I got you
Oh I oh I

Well I just can’t enough of that sweet stuff
My little lady gets behind

On my mama said the time would come
When I would find myself in love with you
I didn’t think I never dreamed
That I would be around to see it all come true
Woh I oh I
Well I just can’t get enough of that sweet stuff
My little lady gets behind

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #82 Martha My Dear

2010-11-30T11:39:00.002-02:00

Martha My Dear é do Álbum Branco e dedicada à cachorra que o Paul tinha na época, uma sheepdog chamada Martha (na foto com ele, abaixo). É muito linda. Como ontem estive conversando com uma amiga sobre animais de estimação, lembrei dessa música. Também amo meus cães e gatos.

Martha My Dear
Lennon/McCartney

Martha my dear,
Though I spend my days in conversation, please
Remember me,
Martha my love
Don't forget me,
Martha my dear

Hold your head up, you silly girl
Look what you've done
When you find yourself in the thick of it,
Help yourself to a bit of what is all around you, silly girl

Take a good look around you
Take a good look and you're bound to see
That you and me were meant to be
For each other
Silly girl

Hold your hand out, you silly girl
See what you've done
When you find yourself in the thick of it,
Help yourself to bit of what is all around you, silly girl

Martha my dear, you have always been my inspiration, please
Be good to me, Martha my love
Don't forget me, Martha my dear

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #81 Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End

2010-11-26T08:48:00.004-02:00

Fecho mais que perfeito para o show. Realmente, no final, o amor que você leva é o amor que você faz - e dá.

Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End
Lennon/McCartney

Once there was a way to get back homeward
Once there was a way to get back home
Sleep pretty darling do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby

Golden slumbers fill your eyes
Smiles awake you when you rise
Sleep pretty darling do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby

Once there was a way to get back homeward
Once there was a way to get back home
Sleep pretty darling do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby

Boy, you gotta carry that weight
Carry that weight a long time
Boy, you gotta carry that weight
Carry that weight a long time

I never give you my pillow
I only send you my invitation
And in the middle of the celebrations
I break down

Boy, you gotta carry that weight
Carry that weight a long time
Boy, you gotta carry that weight
Carry that weight a long time

Oh yeah.
Alright.
Are you gonna be in my dreams
Tonight.

Love you. Love you. Love you. Love you.
Love you. Love you. Love you. Love you.
Love you. Love you. Love you. Love you.
Love you. Love you. Love you. Love you.
Love you. Love you. Love you. Love you.
Love you. Love you. Love you. Love you.

And in the end,
The love you take
Is equal to
The love you make

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #80 Day Tripper

2010-11-23T09:11:00.004-02:00

Momento nota 10 do show de domingo - Day Tripper. Vale para quem não foi e não viu na TV e para quem foi relembrar. É redundância dizer, mas o show foi sensacional. Talento, carisma, profissionalismo, simpatia, energia, charme, alegria, tudo reunido numa pessoa só. Que imenso prazer ver o Paul assim, ao vivo, aos 68 anos.

Day Tripper
Lennon/McCartney

Got a good reason
For taking the easy way out
Got a good reason
For taking the easy way out now

She was a day tripper
One way ticket yeah
It took me so long to find out
And I found out

She's a big teaser
She took me half the way there
She's a big teaser
She took me half the way there now

She was a day tripper
One way ticket yeah
It took me so long to find out
And I found out

Tried to please her
She only played one night stands
Tried to please her
She only played one night stands now

She was a day tripper
Sunday driver yeah
It took me so long to find out
And I found out

Day tripper
Day tripper yeah

Day tripper

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #79 Can't Buy Me Love

2010-11-19T10:46:00.002-02:00

Para levantar a sexta e esquentar os motores para domingo (já chegou!), uma animada dos Beatles: Can't Buy Me Love.

Can't Buy Me Love
Lennon/McCartney

Can't buy me love, love
Can't buy me love

I'll buy you a diamond ring my friend if it makes you feel alright
I'll get you anything my friend if it makes you feel alright
'Cause I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you love me too
I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you
I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love

Can't buy me love, everybody tells me so
Can't buy me love, no no no, no

Say you don't need no diamond ring and I'll be satisfied
Tell me that you want the kind of thing that money just can't buy
I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #78 I'll Follow The Sun

2010-11-18T09:17:00.000-02:00

I'll Follow The Sun é uma música do disco Beatles For Sale, de 1964. Muito linda. E adorei achar um vídeo do Paul recente com ela, no auge do seu charme. Sensacional!

I'll Follow The Sun
Lennon/McCartney

One day you’ll look to see I’ve gone,
For tomorrow may rain so I’ll follow the sun.
Some day you’ll know I was the one,
But tomorrow may rain so I’ll follow the sun.
And now the time has come so my love I must go,
And though I lose a friend in the end you will know, oh
One day you’ll find that I have gone,
But tomorrow may rain so I’ll follow the sun.
And now the time has come so my love I must go,
And though I lose a friend in the end you will know, oh
One day you’ll find that I have gone,
For tomorrow may rain so I’ll follow the sun.

And I Love Her
Lennon/McCartney

I give her all my love
That's all I do
And if you saw my love
You'd love her too
I love her

She gives me everything
And tenderly
The kiss my lover brings
She brings to me
And I love her

A love like ours
Could never die
As long as I
Have you near me

Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her

Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her

Every Night
Paul McCartney

Ev'ry night I just wanna go out,
Get out of my head.

Ev'ry day I lean on a lamp post,
I'm wasting my time.
Ev'ry night I lay on a pillow,
Just resting my mind.
Ev'ry morning brings a new day
And ev'ry night that day is through.
But tonight I just wanna stay in
And be with you-oo,
And be with you.

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh,
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, believe me.
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh,

Uma música do Paul McCartney por dia - #75 Something

2010-11-12T08:22:00.003-02:00

Muito legal esse versão do Paul para a clássica Something, do Geroge Harrison. Está no playlist.

Something
George Harrison

Something in the way she moves
Attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way she woos me

I don't want to leave her now
You know I believe and how

Somewhere in her smile she knows
That I don't need no other lover
Something in her style that shows me

I don't want to leave her now
You know I believe and how

You're asking me will my love grow
I don't know, I don't know
You stick around now it may show
I don't know, I don't know

Something in the way she knows
And all I have to do is think of her
Something in the things she shows me

Don't want to leave her now
You know I believe and how
