“Nightly cares” - Múm

Kristín Anna Valtýsdóttir é, nesta música, a menina que nos faz sonhar com a sua voz delicada e susurrante, que chega até por vezes a roçar o infantil. O instrumental electrónico é muito minimalista e quase hipnótico.
Para ouvir de olhos fechados, “Nightly cares”.




(Lalalalala...)
(Help...)
(Lalalalala...)
(Help...)
Skar, the fire son
Pet, the smiling one
Woo, the sleeping one
Rura, the crying one

Hú hviss (hú hviss), my little one
Ró-ró, my crying one
Ligg-ligg, my weeping one
Rura, rura, sleeping one

Touch or feel, you blinding must
Soft the skin
Of the warmest rust
Cause nothing blows in the faraway
I go, go away
Past the hills, past the day

Touch or feel, you blinding must
Soft the skin
Of the warmest rust
Cause nothing blows in the faraway
I go away, go away
Past the hills, past the day

Múm

“The contractor and the assassin” - Logh

Façam uma vénia a esta música!



Oh, the demise of the empire!
Receded and dark its walls began to fall

The alliance, no one saw it die
The scene of the crime was not checked for evidence
Now it is all gone

The theory seems all too easy
You see, the thesis is said to be dead and so are you

Name the contractor and the assassin
Memorize the face and the plates and the prayer

Throw your oars overboard

“The rat” - The Walkmen



You've got a nerve to be asking a favor
You've got a nerve to be calling my number
I know we've been through this before
Can't you hear me, I'm calling out your name?
Can't you see me, I'm pounding on your door?

You've got a nerve to be asking a favor
You've got a nerve to be calling my number
Can't you hear me, I'm bleeding on the wall?
Can't you see me, I'm pounding on your door?

Can't you hear me when I'm calling out your name?

When I used to go out, I would know everyone that I saw
Now I go out alone if I go out at all

When I used to go out I'd know everyone I saw
Now I go out alone if I go out at all

When I used to go out I'd know everyone I saw
Now I go out alone if I go out at all

You've got a nerve to be asking a favor
You've got a nerve to be calling my number
I'm sure we've been through this before
Can't you hear me, I'm beating on your wall?
Cant you see me, I'm pounding on your door?

“La ballade of lady and bird” - Lady & Bird

“…juntos experimentam em vão chamar atenção dos adultos. Sem a consciência de não se fazerem ouvir decidem saltar de uma ponte, inocentes de que não conseguiam ver ninguém…um salto infantil…no fundo tudo está na nossa cabeça…será bom ou será mau, é um sentimento tão gelado…ou arrebatador e belo?”, in Lady & Bird - Lady and Bird por SonsUrbanos.
