Favourite Darkness

I have made my own crossroads, I have arrived to a place with differents colors, I wish something that I can't have, I look for something that it's not there, I love something but I can't see it.. it's strange when the steps take us where we don't want to go, it would be easy to walk by the shining path, but for some moments we have to walk by the dark room to find the clear field... I'm hanging on your words living on your breath feeling with your skin Will I always be here?

Remastered Boy

I was listening to the remastered version of U2's first album "Boy", this new version brings a second cd with unreleased songs before, single versions and live songs, it's a jewel for the fans, but I wanted to say: what a great album!
many youngs bands would kill to make a first album like this one, perhaps "I will follow" is the most recognizable song of the album, but the others have an extraordinary power, the duo "An Cat Dubh" and "Into The Heart" sound incredible, "Out of Control" could be a hit today without a doubt, "Stories For Boys" has lyrics which are related with "Vertigo" (2004), in "The Ocean" we can hear the sound of the creaking wood of a ship at the sea, finally "A Day Without me" and "The Electric Co." are powerful and they were classic numbers in the early tours of the band, all the songs and the album are good, not masterpices of course, but those songs show us the strength of U2 when they just appeared

no limit for covers

I really don´t know the true story, but it seems that Björk was at a pub and there was a local singer playing his piano, at one momento Bjork gets up to the stage and talks with the singer and she improvises the song "No limit" from the group 2 Unlimited, the result we can see it the video, I wish I had a pub, I would wait for Bjork to sing any song..




the usual way is that a modern group make its own version of a classic song from a well known group, this, is not the case, R.E.M. more than 25 years in the music, makes an acoustic version of the song "Munich" from the group Editors, great version, this makes me think that both groups will appear together soon in a concert

Ennio madness

yes, these days will be remembered as the days Ennio Morricone sold 20 thousand tickets for two concerts in about four hours, not even U2 or Rolling Stones, strange things happen in Santiago, well I could not get a ticket, so I will have to watch it on tv, but for now the music from the film "The Mission"

If it helps

For reasons unknown this song always reminds me of a girl from the university, perhaps at that time I could sing these lyrics to her, unfortunately I couldn't say the right words in front of her, several years after I sent an email telling her about this song and the reminiscences of those days in the classrooms...

Journey around Chile

After the fall of Steve Perry from Journey ten years ago, I thought the group would take separate ways, but still they ride with different singers, but last year they changed again the singer, Neal Schon did not stop believing and he found on Youtube a singer who made covers of Journey and other groups called Arnel Pineda after some mails Pineda crossed frontiers to join the group and last thursday February 21st at Viña del Mar it was the first performance of Journey with this new singer...
for me it was a great show, the voice is similar to Perry, but Pineda was not just an impersonator, he did a good job and everyone in the crowd were happy, singing, screaming, jumping every song, here it is a video from that night

Why Amy ?

I try to understand why Amy Winehouse won 5 Grammys on February 10th, I try to imagine what will be the consequences of these prizes, what's next ? die young ? a better second album? many bad albums from now ?
after many times hearing "no,no,no" Amy finally said yes,yes,yes, she's on rehab and she's a Grammy winner, only time will tell if this is the beginnig of a successful carreer or just a spark in the (possibly) short life of Amy Winehouse

here the moment when Amy Winehouse won the Grammy for Record of the Year

I would fall for every trick

sometimes I was looking for her in the classrooms of my University, there were times when I could see her face, or just her silhouette leaving the room, I would fall for every trick she made, maybe my best trick was just to find an excuse to talk to her..

hot in the city

miles away

travel on a bus? o fly on a plane? not a difficult decision, if you think in speed vs money, the thing is that my friends are miles away, and I hope I could see them soon to drink something, talk about the weather and smile about nothing, what friends usually do...

I think I will go to Australia

Yes, it could be my New Year resolution, the right place would be Sydney, last night in the new year fireworks the official broadcast played a song from the Canadian rock group The Arcade Fire called "No Cars Go", my favourite song of 2007, I have to go to Sydney and hear the song under the bridge...
