Un instante

Ese día no querías saber nada de mi
Nos habíamos peleado
te enojaste y borraste todo lo que te escribí
(afortunadamente tenía backup, so...)
Fui a buscarte y volvimos a hablar
ninguno de los dos quería decir adiós
porque decir adiós hacía mucho daño
siempre fue así
Estaba frente a ti,
y si algún día nos besábamos
era porque tú me ibas a besar a mi
te reíste
y en un instante nuestras vidas cambiaron
el mundo giró
el universo giró
cuando tuve el coraje de robarte
ese beso
uno sólo...

Silly friday video

Guacala... pero qué divertido :)

The years are short

Once upon a time, but not very long ago,

my daughter was too little to walk to school,

so we rode the city bus.

Each morning, I tugged her along the sidewalk to the bus stop.

Each morning, I gazed impatiently down Third Avenue, while she stared in ecstatic wonder at the treasures in the drugstore window.

I didn't particularly mind riding the bus, but I viewed a day off as a great treat.

I'd think with a ping of relief, "Phew, no bus ride today."

Until one morning.

"Look, Mommy, look! A dog!" she exclaimed, as she pointed out the window at an ordinary dog on a leash.

Then suddenly it hit me.

This was parenthood, this was the childhood of my darling girl, this was life itself.

One day —and that day probably wasn't too far away— we'd no longer be riding the bus together.

From then on, every morning, I thought, "Thank goodness, another day to ride the bus."

Now my little girl is bigger, and we walk the ten blocks to school. She still holds my hand, but I know this too will probably end soon.

"Do you remember when we used to ride the bus to school?" I asked her the other day.

"I remember," she said. "I loved that bus ride."

"So did I," I answered.

The days are long, but the years are short.

What's better

—It would be better for you if I was dead

—Don’t you ever say that

—No, I didn't mean that, it's just that-

—I know what you mean, but don't say it.

—Ok

—Are you eating?

—I'm hungry

—Please don't be too depressed


She laughs

and I think I know what's best for me.

Walking in my shoes - Depeche Mode

I would tell you about the things they put me through
The pain I've been subjected to
but the Lord himself would blush

The countless feasts laid at my feet
Forbidden fruits for me to eat
But I think your pulse would start to rush

Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
but before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes

Morality would frown upon
Decency look down upon
the scapegoat fate's made of me

But I promise now, my judge and jurors
my intentions couldn't have been purer
My case is easy to see

I'm not looking for a clearer conscience
Peace of mind after what I've been through
And before we talk of any repentance
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

What I want

Fading away

Post secret

Sowing the seeds of love - Tears For Fears

High time we made a stand
and shook up the views of the common man
and the love train rides from coast to coast
Dj's the man we love the most

Could you be, could you be squeaky clean
and smash any hope of democracy
as the headline says you're free to choose
there's egg on your face and mud on your shoes
One of these days they're gonna call it the blues, yeah

Sowing the seeds of love (Anything is possible)
Seeds of love (When you're sowing the seeds of love)
Sowing the seeds of love

Sowing the seeds of love (Anything is possible)
Seeds of love (Sowing the seeds of love)
Sowing the seeds

I spy tears in their eyes
They look to the skies for some kind of
divine intervention
Food goes to waste, so nice to eat, so nice to taste

Politician Granny with your high ideals
Have you no idea how the majority feels?
So without love and a promised land
We're fools to the rules of a government plan
Kick out the style, bring back the jam

Sowing the seeds of love
seeds of love
Sowing the seeds of love

Sowing the seeds of love
seeds of love
Sowing the seeds
the birds and the bees
my girlfriend and me
in love

Feel the pain
talk about it
If you're a worried man
then shout about it

Open hearts
feel about it
Open minds
think about it

Everyone read about it
Everyone scream about it
Everyone (everyone, yeah yeah)
Everyone (everyone) read about it, read about it

Read it in the books in the crannies
and the nooks there are books to read... Chorus!!!

Sowing the seeds of love
Oh, the seeds of love
We're sowing the seeds
sowing the seeds

We're sowing the seeds of love
we're sowing the seeds

Sowing the seeds of love
we're sowing the seeds of love

(Mr. England sowing the seeds of love)

Time to eat all your words
swallow your pride
open your eyes

Time to eat all your words
swallow your pride
open your eyes

High time we made a stand
And shook up the views of the common man
And the love train rides from coast to coast
Every minute of every hour "I Love a Sunflower"
And I believe in love power
Love power, love power

Sowing the seeds of love
seeds of love
Sowing the seeds of love

Sowing the seeds of love
seeds of love
Sowing the seeds of love

Sowing the seeds
an end to need
and the politics of greed
with love

Beer and wine

Me gusta la cerveza

Me gusta el vino

Me gusta el tequila (creo que es lo que más me gusta relativo a guaros)

Me gustan los coolers

Ya puedo tomar whisky otra vez (después de tomar media botella sin respirar pasé años sin ni siquiera poder verlo... long story)

Puedo tomar café

y puedo tomar té

Sin embargo no es tanto lo que tome

sino más bien estar juntos

porque puedo sentirme en las nubes

tomando agua con jabón...

Told you

What did I just write?

Does it give you a hint about what's going on this head?

but nooooo....

we hear

what we want to hear...

Ring

Mi corazón da una vuelta sobre su eje

cada vez que tú haces eso

Por supuesto que me di cuenta

Me estoy derritiendo por escucharte

pero

dirás esa palabra que quiero oir?



I could just play along if I didn't care about you

but I do

more than you ever know

Trapped in the Drive-Thru - "Weird Al" Yankovic

Seven o'clock in the evenin', watching something stupid on TV
I'm zoned out on the sofa when my wife comes in the room and sees me
And she says, "Is this 'Behind The Music' with Lynyrd Skynyrd?"
And I say, "I don't know. Say, it's gettin' late, whatcha wanna do for dinner?"

She says, "I kinda had a big lunch so I'm not super hungry."
I said, "Well, you know, baby, I'm not starvin' either, but I could eat."
She said, "So, what do you have in mind?"
I said, "I don't know, what about you?"
She says, "I don't care. If you're hungry, let's eat."
I said, "That's what we're gonna do.

But first you've gotta tell me what it is you're hungry for."
And she says, "Lemme think. What's left in our refrigerator?"
I said, "Well, there's tuna, I know."
She said, "That went bad a week ago."
I said, "Is the chili OK?"
She said, "You finished that yesterday."

I hopped up and said, "I don't know. Do you want to get something delivered?"
She's like, "Why would I want to eat liver? I don't even like liver."
I'm like, "No, I said delivered."
She's like, "I heard you say liver."
I'm like, "I should know what I said."
She's like, "Whatever. I just don't want any liver."

Well, I was gonna say something, but my cell phone started to ring
Now, who could be callin' me? Well, I checked my caller I.D.
It was just cousin Larry callin' for the third time today
My wife said, "Let it go to voice mail."
I said, "OK."

"Where were we? Oh, dinner, right. So what do you wanna do?"
She says, "Why don't you whip up something in the kitchen?"
"Yeah," I said, "why don't you?"
And then she says, "Baby, can't we just go out to dinner, please?"
I says, "No."
She says, "Yes."
I says, "No."
She says, "Yes."
I says, "No."
She says, "Yes. Oh, here's your keys."

I step a little bit closer, say, "OK, where you wanna go?"
She says, "How about 'The Ivy'?"
I said, "Yeah, well, I don't know.
I don't feel like gettin' all dressed up and eatin' expensive food."
She says, "Olive Garden."
I say, "Nah, I'm not in the mood.
And Burrito King would make me gassy, there's no doubt."
She says, "Just forget about it."
I said, "No, I swear I'm gonna take you out."

Then I get an idea
I say, "I know what we'll do"
She says, "What?"
I say "Guess."
She says, "WHAT?"
I say, "We're going to the drive-thru!"

So we head out the front door
Open the garage door
Then I open the car doors
And we get in those car doors

Put my key in the ignition
And then I turn it sideways
And we fasten our seatbelts
As we pull out the driveway

Then we drive to the drive-thru (drive-thru)
Heading off to the drive-thru (drive-thru)
We're approaching the drive-thru (drive-thru)
Getting close to the drive-thru (drive-thru)

Almost there at the drive-thru (drive-thru)
Now we're here at the drive-thru (drive-thru)
Here in line at the drive-thru (drive-thru)
Did I mention the drive-thru? (drive-thru) (drive-thru) (drive-thru)

Well, here we are in the drive-thru line, me and her
Cars in front of us, cars in back of us, all just waiting to order
There's some idiot in a Volvo with his brights on behind me
I lean out the window and scream, "Hey, whatcha tryin' to do, blind me?"

My wife says, "Maybe we should park. We could just go eat inside."
I said, "I'm wearin' bunny slippers so I ain't leavin' this ride."
Now a woman, on a speaker box, is sayin', "Can I take your order please?"
I said, "Yes, indeed you certainly can, we'd like two hamburgers with onions and cheese."

Then my wife says, "Baby, hold on, I've changed my mind.
I think I'm gonna have a chicken sandwhich instead this time."
I said, "You always get a cheeseburger."
She says, "That's not what I'm hungry for."
I put me head in my hands and scream, "I don't know who you are any more!"

The voice on the speaker says, "I don't have all day."
I said, "Then take our order, and we'll be on our way.
I wanna get a chicken sandwhich and I want a cheeseburger, too."
She's like, "You want onions on that?"
I'm like, "Yeah, I already said that I do.

Plus we need curly fries, and don't you dare forget it.
And two medium root beers - no, just one, we'll split it."
Then I said, "I'm guessin' that you're probably not too bright.
So read me back my order; let's make sure you got it right."

She says, "One: you want a chicken sandwhich.
Two: you want a cheeseburger. Three: curly fries and a large root beer."
"Stop, don't go no further.
I never ordered a large root beer. I said medium, not large."
Then she says, "We're havin' a special; I supersized you at no charge."

"Oh (oh)."
And that's all I could say was, "Oh (oh)."
And she says, "Now there's something else (else) that I really think you should know (know)."
"You can have unlimited refills (refills) for just a quarter more (more)."
I say, "Great, except we're in the drive-thru (drive-thru), so what would I want that for (for)?"

Then she says, "Wait a minute. Your voice sounds so familiar. Hey, is this Paul?"
And my wife is all like, "No, that ain't Paul. Now, tell me, who's this Paul?"
She says, "He's just some guy who goes to school with me.
I sat behind him last year and I copied off of him in Geometry."

I said, "I know a guy named Paul, he used to be my plumber.
He was prematurely bald and moved to Pittsburgh last summer.
He also had bladder problems and a really bad infection on his toe."
And she says, "Mister, please, you can stop right there.
That's way more than I needed to know."

And then we both were quiet
And things got real intense
And then she says, "Next window, please.
That'll be five dollars and eighty two cents."
So we inched ahead in line, movin' painfully slow
I got a little bored, so I turned on the radio

Click - turned it off because my wife was getting a headache
So we both just sat there quietly for her sake
Then I looked at her
And she looked back at me
And I said, "Umm, I think you have something in your teeth."

She turned away from me and then turned back and said, "Did I get it?"
I said, "Yeah. Well, I mean, most of it, but hey, you know, don't sweat it."
Then she said, "How 'bout now?"
I said, "Yeah almost.
There's still a little bit there, but don't worry.
It's probably just a piece of toast."

Now we're at the pay window
Or whatever you call it
Put my hand in my pocket
I can't believe there's no wallet (wallet) (wallet) (wallet) (wallet)

And the lady at the window's like, "Well, well, well.
That'll be five eighty two."
I turn around to my wife and say, "How much have you got on you?"
She just rolls her eyes and says, "I'll pay for this, I guess."
So she reaches into her purse and busts out the American Express

I hand it to the lady
And she says, "Oh dear.
It's gotta be cash only.
We don't take credit cards here.

I take back the card and say, "Gee, really? Well that sucks."
And that's when I found out my wife was only carryin' three bucks
I said, "I thought you were gonna hit the ATM today."
She says, "I never got around to it. So, where's your wallet anyway?"

And I said, "Never mind, just help me to find some change."
Now the lady at the window's lookin' at me kinda strange
And she says, "Mister, please, we gotta move this line alone."
I said, "Now hold your stinkin' horses, lady. We won't be long."

So I looked around inside the glove box
And checked the mat beneath my feet
I found a nickel in an ash tray
And a couple pennies and a dime in the space between the seats

Before long, I had a little pile of coins of every sort
The lady counts it up and says, "You're still about a dollar short."
And now my woman's got this weird look frozen on her face
She screams, "You know I wasn't even really hungry in the first place!"

And so I turned around
To the cashier again
I shrugged and said, "OK. Uhh, forget the chicken sandwhich then."

So I pick up my change
Pick up my receipt
And I drive to the pick-up window
Man, I just can't wait to eat
And now we see this acne-ridden kid, about sixteen
Wearin' a dorky name tag that says, "Hello, my name is Eugene"

And he hands me a paper bag
I look him in the eyes
And I say to him, "Hey, Eugene,
Could I get some ketchup for my fries?"

Well, he looks at me
And I look at him
And he looks at me
And I look at him
And he looks at me
And I look at him
And he says, "I'm sorry.
What did you want again?"

I say, "Ketchup."
And he says, "Oh yeah, that's right.
I just spaced out there for a second.
I'm really kinda burnt tonight."

And then he hands me the ketchup
And now we're finally drivin' away
And the food is drivin' me mad
With it's intoxicating bouquet

I'm starvin' to death by the time we pull up at the traffic light
I say, "Baby, give me that burger, I just gotta have a bite."
So she reaches in the bag and pulls out the burger
And she hands me the burger
And I pick up the burger

And then I unwrap the paper
I bite into those buns
And I just can't believe it
They forgot the onions

Epileptic Techno - Your Favorite Martian

Chilaxin' out with Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen
They want to check this new joint, Club Convulsion
We put our ass in motion, all my stupid friends rolled up
and the D.J. looked like Superman...

...if he were homeless
And standing by the bar, douchebag was hitting on a tranny
Oh wait that's Hillary Clinton
there with Dick Cheney, who was killin' a kitten

I saw Shaq, Jack Black and J-Lo
I even saw that one guy from that one show
I saw alcoholic Jews and fat truckers
And Oprah was there like: "I'm Oprah, F-cker!"

And everything was good until the second
Homeless Superman put on this record
I stood there with my friends and the Olsen Twins
As he spins everybody had convulsions.

Dance, dance, dance like you're having a seizure.
Move, move, move like you're having a fit
Shake, shake, shake. This is causing a spasm

Epileptic Techno

Now I ain't trying to disrespect epileptics
But the music he played made the place go hectic
The speakers on the deck became disconnected
All the alcoholic Jews were suddenly naked

I felt my muscles expand and contract
I passed out on the dance floor laying on my back
Reality started fading, cutting in and out
I woke up when an Olsen Twin threw up in my mouth

And we were hoping we could leave at our leisure
But the whole f&ckin' theater was havin' a seizure
Except Oprah, the music didn't touch her
Still standing hard, "I'm Oprah, f-cker!"

I saw the D.J. loadin' another disc
With most of the party still foaming at the lips
I grabbed my friends and headed for the exit
When Homeless Superman started spinnin' that next hit

Dance, dance, dance like you're having a seizure
Move, move, move like you're having a fit
Shake, shake, shake, this is causing a spasm

Epileptic Techno

We woke up once again from a seizure
I wiped Mary-Kate's vomit from my T-Shirt
We slid out the back like greased up butter
We saw Oprah there, "I'm Oprah, f-cker!"

We made it out alive, booyah!
We all stood around like: "What are we going to do now?"
We picked a new club. What'd we get?
We somehow rolled up to Club Tourettes?

The music there gave everyone a tick
And every time it played the whole place would twitch,
And shift and switch and b&tch and talk sh-t like:
Ass, barf, barf, ass, bark, piss!

Barf, p-ss, ass, ass, barf, barf, piss, ass, ass, piss!
We ran away like a jet propulsion
Man, I guess we'll go back to Club Convulsion

Dance, dance, dance like you're having a seizure.
Epileptic Techno, Epileptic Techno
Oooh no not having a seizure
Epileptic Techno, Epileptic Techno
Dance, dance, dance like you're having a seizure
Epileptic Techno, Epileptic Techno
Oooh no not having a seizure
Epileptic Techno, Epileptic Techno

"You little bastards, thought you all knew Oprah!"
Don't make me come over there and f-ck you!

Superpowers

Every time the world crumbles down

You remind me what is life all about

You give me a purpose and direction

You give me stability

You bring order and responsibility (responsible me!! can you believe?)

You remind me we should all shine like children

You give me happiness and certainty

You are the ace hiding up my sleeve that gives me superpowers



As long as I live

I won’t fail you

Ángel eléctrico - Soda Stereo

Ahí va la tempestad
ya parece un paisaje habitual
un árbol color sodio
y la caída de un ángel eléctrico

Tengo estática
y no querría lastimarte de nuevo
volví solo y cargado
por la caída de otro angel eléctrico

Enredado en cables
estoy al filo de la resignación
debe ser el hábito
de esperar que algo quiebre el unísono

Un nuevo acorde
te hace mirarme a los ojos
aún tengo al sol
para besar tu sombra

Hoy caí
al dejarte sola
ya pagué
por quebrar la calma

Wish

Realmente y de todo corazón, quiero arreglar las cosas

Av. Alcorta - Gustavo Cerati

Avenida Alcorta, cicatriz
hoy volví cansado de hablar de mí
Providencia puede ser azar
donde estemos juntos será nuestro hogar

No sé
no sé donde estás
y me vuelvo extraño

Esta canción es droga para mí
un imán que atrae toda la ansiedad

Ya sé
ya llegué hasta aquí
no quiero pasarme

Avenida Alcorta, cicatriz
hoy volví cansado de hablar de mí

No sé
no sé donde estás
Ya sé
ya llegué hasta aquí
y te extraño tanto...

He encerrado el cielo para tí
No tengo tierra para mí

He encerrado el cielo para tí
Ya no tengo tierra para mí

Esencial

Escucha

no me alcanzan 5 minutos para explicar

no me alcanzan las palabras para explicar

no me alcanza un símbolo para decirte

porque existe un universo completo

pero si quieres saber lo esencial

te diría que

1. sometimes, you can be very annoying

2. mi vida sin ti es un lugar muy vacío

Bienvenido - Laura Pausini

A ti que pierdes el rumbo de casa mas vas
donde te llevan tus pies ahí estás
veo la libertad
de tus zapatos salpicar

A aquel que dice palabras hirientes porque
quizá no se sabe comprender
A quien suplicó
y que al momento se olvidó

Al que no tienes secretos que confiarle
que ofrece mentiras sin parar
A quien no pide perdón
más lo tendrá

Bienvenido el llanto y su consuelo
y el presagio de nieve en el cielo
Bienvenido el que sonríe
quien tropieza y sigue
y el que un buen consejo siempre te da

Bienvenido a un tren que surca mares
y nos une a tiempo en Navidades
Bienvenidos los artistas
todas sus pasiones
Bienvenido aquel que no cambiará
lo que somos hoy

A esta luna que sueños hará realidad
o los disfraza de oportunidad
A quien maquilló
su espera en un semáforo

Y bienvenido sea este largo invierno
si nos ayuda a mejorar
Y aquel que tenga el coraje de arriesgar

Bienvenido el llanto y el consuelo
y el presagio de nieve en el cielo
Bienvenido aquel que duda
el que se desnuda
porque quiere o por necesidad

Bienvenida la noche de bodas
y el momento de quedarse a solas
Bienvenido es el pianista
todas sus canciones
Los acordes que reflejan así
lo que somos hoy

Qué falta, qué vendrá?
Qué me falta?
De todo esto, qué vendrá?
Qué nos falta?
De todo esto, qué será?
Lo qué falta
Quizá...

Stop...

Bienvenido al llanto y su consuelo
y el presagio de nieve en el cielo
Bienvenido quien sonríe
quien se asusta y cae
pero sin desesperar

Bienvenido a un tren que surca mares
el que nos une a tiempo en Navidades
Bienvenidos los artistas
con sus intuiciones
Bienvenido aquello que somos hoy
lo que somos hoy
De aquí no me voy
porque somos hoy
lo que somos hoy
