Simple Minds - Alive and Kicking

Algo grande para recordar los Simple Minds, que desgraciadamente nunca pudieron superar el exito de su primer album, per lo realizado es excelente.

Alive and Kicking
Simple Minds


You turn me on, you lift me up
And like the sweetest cup I'd share with you
You lift me up, don't you ever stop, I'm here with you

Now it's all or nothing
'Cause you say you'll follow through
You follow me, and I, I, I follow you

What you gonna do when things go wrong?
What you gonna do when it all cracks up?
What you gonna do when the Love burns down?
What you gonna do when the flames go up?
Who is gonna come and turn the tide?
What's it gonna take to make a dream survive?
Who's got the touch to calm the storm inside?
Who's gonna save you?
Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, until your love is, Alive

Oh you lift me up to the crucial top, so I can see
Oh you lead me on, till the feelings come
And the lights that shine on
But if that don't mean nothing
Like if someday it should fall through
You'll take me home where the magic's from
And I'll be with you

What you gonna do when things go wrong?
What you gonna do when it all cracks up?
What you gonna do when the Love burns down?
What you gonna do when the flames go up?
Who is gonna come and turn the tide?
What's it gonna take to make a dream survive?
Who's got the touch to calm the storm inside?
Don't say goodbye
Don't say goodbye
In the final seconds who's gonna save you?

Oh, Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, love is, Alive and Kicking
Oh, Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, love is, Alive and Kicking

Iggy Pop & Kate Pierson - Candy

Iggy Pop & Kate Pierson - Candy

Iggy Pop, odiado por muchos, amado por muchos ex-vocalista de The Stooges, que son considerados como precursores del Punk, muy amigo de David Bowie, que el alcohol y las drogas destruyeron y que son motivo de que ahora casí desaparesca de la escena musical actual, en esta canción junto con Kate Pierson, vocalista de B-52´s, logran un exito comercial importante, por lo que se refiere a la canción una canción melancolica, hasta cierto punto dulce, que se me hace excelente como para recordarla con algo clasico de los noventas....

Candy
Iggy Pop & Kate Pierson


it's a rainy agernoon
in 1990
the big city geez it been 20
years-
candy-you were so fine
beautiful beautiful
girl from the north
you burned my hear
with a flickering torch
i had a dream that no one else
could see
you gave me love for free

chorus: candy
candy
candy i can't let you go
all my life you're haunting me
i loved you to
candy
candy
candy i can't let you go
life is crazy
candy baby

Kate: yeah, well it hurt me real bad
when you left
i'm glad you got out
but i miss you
i've had a hole in my heart for
so long
i've learned to fake it and just
smile along
down on the street
those men are all the same
i need a love
not games
not games

Chorus x2
Chorus to fade
