The Killers – Mr. Brightside

The-killers-band-hot-fussHace mucho que no traía a mi querido Brandon por estos lares (al menos acompañado de sus angelitos). Así que tiraremos de uno de sus primeros éxitos, presente en su disco debut: Hot Fuss (2004). Lo que más me gusta de The Killers es que han ido mutando con cada álbum y aún así, me siguen conquistando con sus nuevos registros. Así que si comparamos este Mr. Brightside con su más reciente Human, no parece ni la misma banda.

Atención a la versión swing que se marca Paul Anka y al mashup junto a Life in Technicolor de Coldplay. Esta semana toca ponerse el traje de miss optimista 🙂

Letra:

I’m coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all

It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss

Now I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his-chest

Now, he takes off her dress
Now, letting me go

And I just can’t look it’s killing me
And taking control

[estribillo]
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it’s just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
‘Cause I’m Mr Brightside

I’m coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his-chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, letting me go

Cause I just can’t look its killing me
And taking control

[estribillo]

I never…
I never…
I never…
I never…

The Killers – Human

The KillersAún no había publicado lo nuevo de The Killers, pero tras ver la actuación en directo tan espectacular que hicieron en la entrega de los premios EMA 08, no me queda más remedio. El nuevo álbum (el tercero de estudio) se llama Day & Age y supone un cambio de registro. Suenan más discotequeros (en mi opinión). Y es que se nota la mano del reconocido DJ Stuart Price, el productor. De hecho, hay que escuchar este Human un par de veces para sacarle el gusto.

Lo mejor de todo es este vídeo. No os lo perdáis. ¡Menudo montaje!

Letra:

I did my best to notice
When the call came down the line
Up to the platform of surrender
I was brought but I was kind

And sometimes I get nervous
When I see an open door
Close your eyes
Clear your heart…
Cut the cord

[estribillo]
Are we human?
Or are we dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I’m on my knees
Looking for the answer
Are we human?
Or are we dancer?

Pay my respects to grace and virtue
Send my condolences to good
Give my regards to soul and romance,
They always did the best they could
And so long to devotion
You taught me everything I know
Wave goodbye
Wish me well..
You’ve got to let me go

[estribillo]

Will your system be alright
When you dream of home tonight?
There is no message we’re receiving
Let me know is your heart still beating

[estribillo]

You’ve got to let me know

[estribillo]

Are we human?
Or are we dancer?

Are we human
Or are we dancer?

The Killers – Read My Mind

The KillersComo ya va siendo tónica, los fines de semana, dejo mi lado moña (como dicen algunos… ¬¬) y saco algo con más fuerza. Y ese es el caso de este gran éxito de The Killers (Sam’s Town, 2006). Sería un puntazo poder leer las mentes de las personas, como dice la canción: se acabarían los malentendidos, engaños, falsedades,… Pero también perderíamos nuestra intimidad y estaríamos vendidos… o no.

Espero que ustedes gusten y disfruten 😉

Letra:

On the corner of main street
Just tryin’ to keep it in line
You say you wanna move on and
You say I’m falling behind

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

I never really gave up on
Breakin’ out of this two-star town
I got the green light
I got a little fight
I’m gonna turn this thing around

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

The good old days, the honest man;
The restless heart, the Promised Land
A subtle kiss that no one sees;
A broken wrist and a big trapeze

Oh well I don’t mind, if you don’t mind
‘Cause I don’t shine if you don’t shine
Before you go, can you read my mind?

It’s funny how you just break down
Waitin’ on some sign
I pull up to the front of your driveway
With magic soakin’ my spine

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

The teenage queen, the loaded gun;
The drop dead dream, the Chosen One
A southern drawl, a world unseen;
A city wall and a trampoline

Oh well I don’t mind, if you don’t mind
‘Cause I don’t shine if you don’t shine
Before you jump
Tell me what you find when you read my mind

Slippin’ in my faith until I fall
You never returned that call
Woman, open the door, don’t let it sting
I wanna breathe that fire again

She said I don’t mind, if you don’t mind
‘Cause I don’t shine if you don’t shine

Put your back on me
Put your back on me
Put your back on me

The stars are blazing like rebel diamonds cut out of the sun
Can you read my mind
