Beautiful Friend
Cranes

I feel those days without end
when we used to be friends
those summer days were spent
in search of hope and happiness

we used to while away our days
in a beautiful haze
I guess I knew one day
that you'd be moving long away

you said go back to your dream
back to your wilderness
go back along the walk
maybe you'll find some happiness

I wept a thousand tears for you
for my love that came true
and soon I realized
I'd always dreamt it'd come to this

And though that time passes by
and that our lives have changed
but our love was special
our love was strange

And though my heart broke
in time it did mend
except when I think about the time
that we used to be friends

Bizarre Love Triangle
Frente!

Every time I think of you
I get a shot right through
Into a bolt of blue
It's no problem of mine
But it's a problem I find
Living the life that I can't leave behind
There's no sense in telling me
The wisdom of a fool won't set you free
But that's the way that it goes
And it's what nobody knows
And every day my confusion grows
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for the final moment
You say the words that I can't say
I feel fine and I feel good
I feel like I never should
Whenever I get this way
I just don't know what to say
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday
I'm not sure what this could mean
I don't think you're what you seem
I do admit to myself
That if I hurt someone else
Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for the final moment
You'll say the words that I can't say
Every time I see you falling
I'll get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for the final moment
You'll say the words that I can't say

The Cranberries - Dreams

Banda irlandesa formada en las vocales por la gran voz y belleza de Dolores O'Riordan, Noel Hogan, Mike Hogan y Fergal Lawler. La mezcla de una voz hermosa como la de Dolores con guitarras estridentes y bateria aveces fuerte aveces mezclada con los golpes duros de la rabia y del dolor, una excelente banda donde muchas canciones son muy buenas y otras tanta mejores, pero sin dudar para mi las mejores son: "Dreams", "linger", "Zombie", "Ode a my Family", "No Need to Argue", "Animal Instint", "Salvation", "Free to Decide", y "Just My Imagination". Sobre "Dreams", una canción alegre que refleja el estado del inconciente en cada paso que da para ser tomado en cuenta en el conciente, y como siempre que se sueña se es mas feliz...

Dreams
The Cranberries

Oh my life is changing everyday
Every possible way
Though my dreams, it’s never quite as it seems
Never quite as it seems

I know I felt like this before
But now I’m feeling it even more
Because it came from you

Then I open up and see
The person fumbling here is me
A different way to be

I want more, impossible to ignore
Impossible to ignore
They’ll come true, impossible not to do
Impossible not to do

Now I tell you openly
You have my heart so don’t hurt me
For what I couldn’t find

Talk to me amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You’re everything to me

Oh my life is changing everyday
Every possible way
Though my dreams, it’s never quite as it seems
’cause you’re a dream to me
Dream to me

Una banda totalmente indie, con sencillos de sus primeros albumnes como "Carnival", "Lovefool", "Been It". sin embargo para mi la mejor canción de ellos es esta "erase and Rewind" del su tercer album, llamado Gran Turismo... opinen...

Erase and Rewind
The Cardigans

Hey, what did you hear me say
you know the difference it makes
what did you hear me say

Yes, I said it's fine before
I don't think so no more
I said it's fine before

I've changed my mind
I take it back
Erase and rewind
'cause I've been changing my mind
I've changed my mind

So where did you see me go
it's not the right way, you know
where did you see me go

No, it's not that I don't know
I just don't want it to grow
It's not that I don't know

I've changed my mind
I take it back
Erase and rewind
'cause I've been changing my mind
I've changed my mind
Erase and rewind
'cause I've been changing my mind
I've changed my mind

Garbage - Queer

Garbage banda ironicamente llamada así, siendo todo lo contrario "nada desechable como la basura", es formada en 1994 por la cantante escocesa Shirley Manson, y por los tres productores estadounidenses Butch Vig (productor del Nevermind de Niverna y Siamese Dream de Smashing Pumpkins),Steve Marker y Duke Erikson.
De su disco homonimo se desprenden varios sencillos como son: "Vow", "Only Happy When It Rains", la fenomenal "Queer", el super hit "Stupid Girl" y la balada "Milk", dedicada a Shirley por su piel tan blanca. Después editaron otros 3 albumnes, que son: Version 2.0; Beautiful Garbage y Bleed Like Me, se rumora que en este 2010 regresaran con nuevo album...

Queer
Garbage

Hey boy, take a look at me
Let me dirty up your mind
I'll strip away your hard veneer
And see what I can find

The queerest of the queer
The strangest of the strange
The coldest of the cool
The lamest of the lame
The numbest of the dumb
I hate to see you here
You choke behind a smile
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer

This is what he pays me for
I'll show you how it's done
You learn to love the pain you feel
Like father like son

The queerest of the queer
Hide inside your head
The blindest of the blind
The deadest of the dead
You're hungry cause you starve
While holding back the tears
Choking on your smile
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer

I know what's good for you (You can touch me if you want)
I know you're dying to (You can touch me if you want)
I know what's good for you (You can touch me if you want)
But you can't stop

The queerest of the queer
The strangest of the strange
The coldest of the cool
The lamest of the lame
The numbest of the dumb
I hate to see you here
You choke behind a smile
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer
The strangest of the strange
The coldest of the cool
You're nothing special here
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer

I know what's good for you
I know you're dying to
I know what's good for you
I bet you're dying to
You can touch me if you want
You can touch me if you want
You can touch me
You can touch me
But you can't stop.
