Physical (Olivia Newton John) (1981)

Este video me trae extraños recuerdos... como mi primer crush, la primera vez que recuerde haber visto a una mujer en leotardo haciendo ejercicios... y la parte en el segundo 35 del video que todavia me para el pelo (y otra cosa en aquel tiempo...!) pero lo peor son los tipos en calzoncillos al final del video!




cantela!
I'm saying all the things that I know you'll like
Making good conversation
I gotta handle you just right
You know what I mean
I took you to an intimate restaurant
Then to a suggestive movie
There's nothing left to talk about
Unless it's horizontally

Let's get physical, physical
I wanna get physical
Let's get into physical
Let me hear your body talk, your body talk
Let me hear your body talk

I've been patient, I've been good
Tried to keep my hands on the table
It's gettin' hard this holdin' back
If you know what I mean

I'm sure you'll understand my point of view
We know each other mentally
You gotta know that you're bringin' out
The animal in me

Let's get physical, physical
I wanna get physical
Let's get into physical
Let me hear your body talk, your body talk
Let me hear your body talk

Let's get physical, physical
I wanna get physical
Let's get into physical
Let me hear your body talk, your body talk
Let me hear your body talk

Let's get physical, physical
I wanna get physical
Let's get into physical
Let me hear your body talk, your body talk
Let me hear your body talk

Let's get animal, animal
I wanna get animal
Let's get into animal
Let me hear your body talk
Let me hear your body talk

Cuando pase el temblor (Soda Stereo) (1985)

despues de ver que mi papás tenían sus propias colecciones musicales, yo me dije, bueno, y porqué yo no? así que decidí empezar a tener mi propia música! Ahora, tenemos el pequeño problema que no tenía ni un cinco para comprar discos, así que qué tenía que hacer? pues grabar cassettes... y esos si eran máss baratos así que podía pedirle a mi papá que me comprara uno o sino agarrar uno de los de mi mamá y pasarle por encima...
de esa manera me puse a buscar entre las emisoras con los dedos puestos en la tecla "play" y "rec" hasta encontrar canciones que me gustaran o que se se oyeran bien. Una de esas canciones es esta, que todavía hoy me trae los recuerdos de ese cassette todo estirado...



cantela!
Yo, caminaré entre las piedras
Hasta sentir el temblor, en mis piernas
A veces tengo temor, lo sé
A veces vergüenza
Oh oh oh

Estoy sentado en un cráter desierto
Sigo aguardando el temblor, en mi cuerpo
Nadie me vio partir, lo sé
Nadie me espera
Oh oh oh
Hay una grieta en mi corazón
Un planeta con disolución

Se que te encontraré en esas ruinas
Ya no tendremos que hablar (que hablar)
Del temblor
Te besaré en el temblor (lo sé)
Será un buen momento
Oh oh oh
Hay una grieta en mi corazón
Un planeta con desilusión

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
El temblor (despiértame)
Cuando pase el temblor
(Despiértame) cuando pase el temblor
(Despiértame) cuando pase el
temblor
Despiértame
Despiértame, cuando pase el temblor

Fool on the Hill (Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66)

Mi papá tenía una colección bastante grande de LP's. Al principio el compraba en grandes cantidades música de Benny Moré y algunos otros músicos. Este disco en especial me gustó tanto que le llegó el punto en que lo rayé. Esta canción así como aparece en este video tiene exactamente el mismo sonido que yo recuerdo! (de paso esta fue mi introducción a The Beatles también...



cantela!
Day after day alone on the hill,
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still,
But nobody wants to know him,
They can see that he's just a fool,
And he never gives an answer,
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning around.

Well on his way his head in a cloud,
The man of a thousand voices talking percetly loud
But nobody ever hears him,
Or the sound he appears to make,
And he never seems to notice,
But the fool on the hill . . .
Nobody seems to like him
They can tell what he wants to do.
And he never shows his feelings,
But the fool on the hill . . .

Cum on feel the noize (Quiet Riot) (1983)

Esta era la segunda canción de ese cassette. En ese momento yo sinceramente pensaba que mi vecino mínimo fumaba mariguana y adoraba al diablo (que inocente yo!) Esta es otra canción que seguí escuchando luego en los "bailes" (o más bien bunkers) que hacían en el comunal de mi querido Hatillo 5



cantela!
Come on feel the noise
Girls rock your boys
We'll get wild, wild, wild!
Wild, wild, wild!

So you think I got an evil mind,
I'll tell you honey

I don't know why
I don't know why

So you think my singing's out of time,
it makes me money

I don't know why
I don't know why, anymore
Oh no

So come on, feel the noise
Girls rock your boys
We'll get wild, wild, wild
Wild, wild, wild

Come on, feel the noise
Girls rock your boys
We'll get wild, wild, wild,
get wild

So you see I got a funny face,
I got no worries
And don't know why
I don't know why

Oh i gotta sing with some disgrace,
I'm in no hurry
And I don't know why
I don't know why, anymore
no, no, no

Come on, feel the noise
Girls rock your boys
We'll get wild, wild, wild,
wild, wild, wild

Come on, feel the noise
Girls rock your boys
We'll get wild, wild, wild,
get wild
Come on

Well you think we have a lazy time,
You should know better
I don't know why
I don't know why

So you say I got a dirty mind,
I'm a mean go getter
I don't know why
I don't know why, anymore
Oh no

Come on feel the noise
Girls rock your boys
We'll get wild, wild, wild,
Wild, wild, wild

Come on, feel the noise
Girls rock your boys
We'll get wild, wild, wild
get wild

Come on (come on) feel it
Girls rock your boys (girls rock it)
We'll get wild, wild, wild
We're gonna get wild (wild,wild,wild)

We're gonna get rocked tonight (come on feel the noise)

Rock it tonight (girls rock your boys)
We'll get wild, wild, wild
OH YEAH!!

Ah, ah, ah (wooooo)
Ah, ah, ah

Come on, feel the noise
Girls rock your boys
We'll get wild, wild, wild

Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah.

We're not gonna take it (Twisted Sister) (1984)

Tal vez mi primer experiencia con el rock en inglés (aparte de las canciones de Iron Maiden que escuchaba a través de la pared de mi cuarto). Recuerdo haber escuchado esta canción en una grabadora vieja con un cassette que me había prestado el vecino de al lado y aunque no entendía nada de la letra, pensaba "uy, estará bien oir esto?" ahora, antes que me juzguen, piensen que era 1984! estaba apenas en segundo grado de la escuela...
