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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.
