Uno de los mejores temas instrumentales de todos los tiempos.
Wheels (Ruedas), es uno de los temas instrumentales que más me gustan, tanto con el grupo The String-a-Long como con Billy Vaughn. En español he escuchado una versión cantada, si no estoy mal con Julissa pero me gusta más en instrumental. El L.P. de "The String-a-long" que contenía el tema Wheels se llamaba "Pick a hit" y fue lanzado a principios de los 60's.
Billy Vaughn tiene muchos temas instrumentales que son de mi predilección, realmente fue un gran director de orquesta.
De Domenico Modugno me recuerdo bastante principalmente por la canción "La distancia es como el viento", pero muchos años atrás él ya había lanzado lo que quizás fue su mayor éxito a nivel internacional, la canción es conocida como "Volare" pero según parece su nombre completo es "Nel Blu Dipinto Di Blu". Me gusta mucho esta canción.
Cuando los Hermanos Castro se separaron, Gualberto Castro siguió su carrera como solista, no se imaginaba que en 1975 él sería el ganador de una O.T.I. con esta hermosa canción, la verdad es que me gusta mucho y también me trae muchos recuerdos.
Esta canción me encanta!!!.
The Turtles (1967)
Some girls love to run around
Love to handle everything they see
But my girl has more fun around
And you know she'd rather be with me
CHORUS
Me oh my, lucky guy is what I am
Tell you why, you'd understand
She don't fly, although she can
Some boys love to run around
They don't think about the things they do
But this boy wants to settle down
And you know he'd rather be with you
(chorus)
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Some girls love to run around
Love to handle everything they see
But my girl has more fun around
And you know she'd rather be with
Yeah she'd rather be with
You know she'd rather be with me
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Ah you know she'd rather be with me
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Ah you know she'd rather be with me
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Ah you know she'd rather be with me
Esta canción la escuché también con Los Reno en su versión al español, también es muy buena, La canción es original de Bob Dylan pero el cover que hicieron The Turtles fue más popular en Guatemala.
It Ain't Me Babe
The Turtles (1965)
Go away from my window
Leave at your own chosen speed
I'm not the one you want, babe
I'm not the one you need
You say you're lookin' for someone
Whos never weak but always strong
To protect you and defend you
Whether you are right or wrong
Someone to open each and every door
[Chorus]
But it ain't me babe
A-no, no, no it ain't me babe
It ain't me you're lookin' for babe
[Verse 2]
Go lightly from the ledge, babe
Go lightly on the ground
I'm not the one you want, babe
I'll only let you down
You say you're lookin' for someone
Wholl promise never to part
Someone to close his eyes to you
Someone to close his heart
Someone who will die for you and more
[Coda]
No it ain't me you're lookin' for, babe
I said a-no, no, no, it ain't me babe
La canción Eleonor de The Turtles me gusta mucho pero no se porque razón me gusta mucho más la versión que lanzaron Los Mitos.
The Turtles (1968)
You got a thing about you
I just can't live without you
I really want you Elenore near me
Your looks intoxicate me
Even though your folks hate me
There's no one like you Elenore really
CHORUS
Elenore gee I think you're swell
And you really do me well
You're my pride and joy et cetera
Elenore can I take the time
To ask you to speak your mind
Tell me that you love me better
I really think you're groovy
Let's go out to a movie
What do ya say now, Elenore can we?
They'll turn the lights way down low
Maybe we won't watch the show
I think I love you, Elenore, love me
(chorus)
One more time
Elenore, gee I think you're swell, ah-hah
Elenore, gee I think you're swell, ah-hah-hah
El grupo de Las Tortugas es un grupo que tiene varias canciones que me gustan, todas me traen grandes recuerdos y me provocan mucha nostalgia. Estas canciones eran infaltables en El Baul de los recuerdos que se transmitía por Radio Progreso (Guatemala).
Imagine me and you, I do
I think about you day and night, its only right
To think about the girl you love and hold her tight
So happy together
If I should call you up, invest a dime
And you say you belong to me and ease my mind
Imagine how the world could be, so very fine
So happy together
I cant see me lovin nobody but you
For all my life
When youre with me, baby the skiesll be blue
For all my life
Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together
I cant see me lovin nobody but you
For all my life
When youre with me, baby the skiesll be blue
For all my life
Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together
Ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba
Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together
So happy together
How is the weather
So happy together
Were happy together
So happy together
Happy together
So happy together
So happy together
Esta otra gran canción, llegó un momento que ya no la toleraba porque se escuchaba mucho. Ahora es muy difícil escucharla en las radios (de acá de Chicago), tienen tantas canciones para poder poner que siempre ponen las mismas (quizás para variar un poco).
Wings
You'd think that people
Would have had enough
Of silly love songs
But I look around me
And I see it isn't so
Some people wanna
Fill the world with
Silly love songs
And what's wrong with that
I'd like to know
Cause here I go again
I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you
I can't explain
The feeling's plain to me
Now, can't you see
Ah, she gave me more
She gave it all to me
Now, can't you see
What's wrong with that
I need to know
Cause here I go again
I love you, I love you
Love doesn't come in a minute
Sometimes it doesn't come at all
I only know that when I'm in it
It isn't silly, no, it isn't silly
Love isn't silly at all
How can I tell you
About my loved one
How can I tell you
About my loved one
How can I tell you
About my loved one
(I love you)
How can I tell you
About my loved one
(I love you)
I love you, I love you
(I love you)
I can't explain
The feeling's plain to me
Say, can't you see
(I love you)
Say, he gave me more
He gave it all to me
Now, can't you see....(repeat)
You'd think that people
Would have had enough
Of silly love songs
But I look around me
And I see it isn't so, oh, no
Some people wanna
Fill the world with
Silly love songs
And what's wrong with that

Otras dos canciones que me traen muchos recuerdos son estas dos que están en este disco 45, me remontan a la primera decada de los 70 y me recuerdan a La Voz Del Hogar. Mi mente se transporta a mi chiquititud (cuando era patojo).
Paul McCartney & Wings
.
Down in the jungle living in a tent
You don't use money you don't pay rent
You don't ever know the yime
But you don't mind
Ho Hey Ho...
When your light is on the blink
You never think of worrying
What's the use of worrying?
When your bus has left the stop
You'd better drop your hurrying
What's the use of hurrying?
Leave me alone Mrs. Vandebilt
I've got plenty of time of my own
What's the use of worrying?
What's the use of hurrying?
What's the use of anything?
Ho Hey Ho...
What's the use of worrying?
What's the use of hurrying?
What's the use of anything?
Ho Hey Ho...
When your pile is one the Wane
You don't complain of Robbery
Run away Don't Bother me
What's the use of worrying?
What's the use of anything?
Leave me alone Mrs. Washington
I've done plenty of time on my own
What's the use of worrying?
What's the use of hurrying? (no use!)
What's the use of anything?
Ho Hey Ho...

Bluebird
Paul McCartney & Wings
.
Late at night when the wind is still
I'll come flying through your door
And you'll know what love is for
I'm a bluebird, I'm a bluebird
I'm a bluebird, I'm a bluebird
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm a bluebird, I'm a bluebird
I'm a bluebird, yeah, yeah, yeah
Touch your lips with a magic kiss
And you'll be a bluebird too
And you'll know what love can do
I'm a bluebird, I'm a bluebird
I'm a bluebird, I'm a bluebird
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm a bluebird, I'm a bluebird
I'm a bluebird, yeah, yeah, yeah
Bluebird (bluebird) ah ha
Bluebird (bluebird) ah ha
Bluebird (bluebird)
Fly away through the midnight air
As we head out across the sea
And at last, we will be free
You're a bluebird, you're a bluebird
You're a bluebird, you're a bluebird
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You're a bluebird, you're a bluebird
You're a bluebird, yeah, yeah, yeah
Bluebird (bluebird) uh huh
Bluebird (bluebird) uh huh
Bluebird (bluebird)
All alone on a desert island
We're living in the trees
And we're flying in the breeze
At least we will be free
Bluebirds like me
At least we will be free
Bluebird (bluebird) uh huh
Bluebird (bluebird) uh huh
Bluebird (bluebird)
All alone on a desert island
We're living in the trees
And we're flying in the breeze
We're the bluebirds
We're the bluebirds
We're the bluebirds
Singing
Bluebird (bluebird) ah ha
Bluebird (bluebird) ah ha
Bluebird (bluebird)
