Playlist: Valentine's Day

Just as one of the Moulin Rouge quotes claims, "The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return". However, saying the three magical words may seem a bit awkward to some of us. 

Fortunately, musicians have sang it before and done it in a memorable way.

Here is my ten-ways list to say I love you.

1-Fell in love with a girl, The White Stripes

2-In the heat of the morning, The Last Shadow Puppets

3-Do you want to know a secret, The Beatles

4-Wonderwall, Oasis

5-There is a light that never goes out, The Smiths

6-You give me something, Jamiroquai

7-Super Duper Love, Joss Stone

8-10,000 nights of thunder, Alphabeat

9-20.000 besos, Cosmo

10-Puente, Gustavo Cerati

Friday, In the mood for... Jamiroquai

Un nuevo Viernes!! Esta semana... in the mood for... 

Canned Heat, de Jamiroquai. 

You know this boogie is for real!!

I used to put my faith in worship
But then my chance to get to Heaven slipped
I used to worry about the future
But then I threw my caution to the wind
I had no reason to be carefree
No no no until I took a trip to the other side of town
Yeah yeah yeah you know I heard that boogie rhythm
Hey - I had no choice but to get down down down down

Dance - nothing left for me to do but dance
Off these bad times I'm going through just dance
Got canned heat in my heels tonight baby

I feel the thunder see the lightning
I know this anger's heaven-sent
So I've got to hang out all my hang-ups
Because of the boogie I feel so hell-bent hey hey
It's just an instant gut reaction that I got
I know I never ever felt like this before
I don't know what to do
But then that's nothing new
Stuck between hell and high water
I need a cure to make it through






Nothing left for me to do but dance
Off these bad times I'm going through just dance
I got canned heat in my heels tonight baby
You know know know I'm gonna dance yeah
Off the nasty things that people say
Dance yeah but I'm gonna make it anyway
Dance yeah got canned heat up my heels tonight baby
You know I've got canned heat in my heels


You know this boogie is for real


Only the wind can blow the answer
And she cries to me when I'm asleep
She says you know that you can go much faster
I know that people's talk can be so cheap
I got this voodoo child inveined on me
I'm gonna use my power to ascend
You know I got these running heels to use
Sometimes there's no way I lose
I was born to run and built to last
You've never seen my feet cause they move so fast


Dance yeah hey nothing left for me to do but dance
Off these bad times I'm going through just dance hey
Got canned heat in my heels tonight baby


Hey I've got to dance yeah
Off the nasty things that people say
Dance yeah but I'm gonna make it anyway
Dance yeah got canned heat in my heels tonight baby


You know this boogie is for real got
So much canned heat in my heels yeah
Gonna dance gonna dance my blues away tonight
You know I'm gonna dance my blues away
You know this boogie is for real got
So much canned heat in my heels yeah
Gonna dance gonna dance my blues away tonight

#20CancionesPerfectas

El concepto de perfección en la Música siempre fue relativo, relativo a los gustos de quien está juzgando la pieza en cuestión. Según el ángulo desde que la analicemos, una canción puede ser perfecta para cantar, para bailar, para llorar. Puede ser una letra excepcional, o una composición musical incomparable.

Hay canciones que, nos gusten o no, trascienden las barreras de la subjetividad y pasan a ser consideradas universalmente "perfectas". Les dejo una selección de canciones "perfectas" para diferentes situaciones. Enjoy!
