One year after (ska rhythm)

She sang 'Monkey man' BUT she died.


That lyrics remember a brazilian song BUT I don't know why.


Monkeys, apes, men, jungle people, whatever you think it would be the same, depends on the situation BUT the ska rhythm is there.

Tiros em Bitter Sweet Symphony

O que o ex-vocalista do Verve tem a ver com o tiroteio no cinema do Colorado na estreia do novo filme do Batman?

Notícia aqui.

Steady, as she goes

Find yourself a girl and settle down
Live a simple life in a quiet town

Steady as she goes (steady as she goes)
Steady as she goes (steady as she goes)

So steady as she goes

Your friends have shown a kink in the single life
You've had too much to think, now you need a wife

Steady as she goes (steady as she goes)
So steady as she goes (steady as she goes)

Well here we go again
You've found yourself a friend that knows you well
But no matter what you do
You'll always feel as though you tripped and fell

So steady as she goes

When you have completed what you thought you had to do
And your blood's depleted to the point of stable glue

Then you'll get along
Then you'll get along

Steady as she goes (steady as she goes)
So steady as she goes (steady as she goes)

Well here we go again
You've found yourself a friend that knows you well
But no matter what you do
You'll always feel as though you tripped and fell

So steady as she goes
Steady as she goes

Settle for a girl (settle for a girl), neither up or down (neither up or down)
Sell it to the crowd (sell it to the crowd) that is gathered round (that is gathered round)

Settle for a girl (settle for a girl), neither up or down (neither up or down)
Sell it to the crowd (sell it to the crowd) that is gathered round (that is gathered round)

So steady as she goes (steady as she goes)
Steady as she goes (steady as she goes)

Steady as she goes (steady as she goes)
So steady as she goes (steady as she goes)

Steady as she goes, are you steady now?
Steady as she goes, are you steady now?

Steady as she goes, are you steady now?
Steady as she goes, are you steady now?

Steady as she goes

Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself

I just don't know what to do with myself
I don't know what to do with myself
Planning everything for two
Doing everything with you
And now that were through
I just don't know what to do

I just don't know what to do with myself
I don't know what to do with myself
Movies only make me sad
Parties make me feel as bad
'Cause I'm not with you
I just don't know what to do

Like a summer rose
Needs the sun and rain
I need your sweet love
To beat love away

Well I don't know what to do with myself
Just don't know what to do with myself
Planning everything for two
Doing everything with you
And now that were through
I just don't know what to do

Like a summer rose
Needs the sun and rain
I need your sweet love
To beat love away

I just don't know what to do with myself
Just don't know what to do with myself
Just don't know what to do with myself
I don't know what to do with myself

Music by White Stripes

Tighten Up

'Tighten Up' by The Black Keys

I wanted love, I needed love,
Most of all, most of all
Someone said true love was dead
And I'm bound to fall, bound to fall
For you
But what can I do?

Take my badge but my heart remains
Lovin' you, baby child
Tighten up on your reigns
You're runnin' wild, runnin' wild
It's true

Sick for days in so many ways
I'm achin' now, I'm achin' now
It's times like these I need relief
Please show me how, show me how
To get right

When I was young and moving fast
Nothing slowed me down, slowed me down
Now I let the others pass
I've come around, come around

Living just to keep going
Going just to stay sane
All the while never knowing
It's such a shame

I don't need to get steady
I know just how I feel
I'm telling you to get ready
My dear

Duas naturezas

Bem e mal. Profano e sagrado. Início e fim. Barulho e silêncio. Artificial e natural. Morte e vida. E mais um sem número de ambigüidades. Tudo ao mesmo tempo agora em lugares diferentes.

Quinta, 28 de Janeiro de 2010. Pesar e alegria.

Adeus, Mr Salinger. Einstein da Literatura. Espero ansioso pelas pérolas do cofre.





Obrigado, Metallica. Porto Alegre na turnê, Enter Sandman, Creeping Death, Seek and destroy... ao vivo, ali, noite INESQUECÍVEL





The memory remains.

Atenção para o slogan!

"Uma imagem vale por mil palavras". Se vale ou não (acredito que algumas até valham mesmo) esse questionamento em nada prejudica a popularidade da máxima. Mas, e de uma palavra ou frase, quantas imagens ou idéias podemos extrair? Farei primeiramente uma breve explanação para em seguida mostrar onde quero chegar.

Era início dos anos 80 e a turnê de Peter Frampton passava pelas grandes capitais brasileiras, entre elas Porto Alegre. Hoje tudo seria diferente, mas na época eu era pequeno o suficiente para não ir àquele grande show. Contudo, hoje todos que curtem as músicas do cara podem apreciar fragmentos do espetáculo graças a gravação do evento e mais recentemente sua publicação no Youtube.



Para os fãs, o registro é uma raridade. Mas, especialmente a todos que se ligam em comunicação, muita atenção para O SLOGAN da TV Bandeirantes, que aparece na locução, ali nos 5'52''. Trata-se de uma frase forte e subjetiva, do tipo que merece ser comentada. É um slogan sintético, conciso, auspicioso. E minha pretensão é promover um breve exercício criativo a partir dessa poderosa frase publicitária.

Vamos ver que diferentes interpretações podem surgir de uma mesma frase. Apenas responda: para você o que esse slogan significa?

Too young to dye

Três palavras, uma notícia: Michael Jackson morreu. Um nome, um homem, um astro da música. Um fenômeno, o rei do pop. Talento, recordes, polêmicas. Atração por crianças, câmaras de oxigênio: será verdade? Passos de dança, megaturnês, efeitos especiais. Thriller, os zumbis dançando na rua mais 104.000.000 de todos os tempos. Acabou. Foi hoje, aos 50 anos, branco, em Los Angeles. Muitos dirão que é muito cedo para morrer. Também imitarão sua dança, baixarão suas músicas e comprarão ainda muitos discos. E a mídia já está fazendo seu espetáculo. A verdade é que o corpo físico de Michael Jackson se foi, mas com certeza ele permanecerá vivo em seu legado.
