Despues de varios días sin poder actualizar mi blog acá estoy de nuevo, gracias a Dios he tenido bastante trabajo y tengo que aprovechar mientras se pueda. La verdad es que extrañaba esto de vivir recuerdos con la música que tanto me gusta pero cuando regresaba a la casa me sentía tan cansado que practicamente solo estaba llegando a dormir.

Hoy quiero recordar una canción que para mi es muy pero muy especial.

How Does It Feel (Portada) Frente

De Engelbert Humperdinck me gustan varias canciones pero esta es la principal. Apareció como lado "B" de un disco 45 R.P.M., y hasta el momento no se si ha sido editado en C.D. así que me considero afortunado al tener el disco 45.

De "Jairo" me gustan dos canciones, "El valle y el volcan" y "Nuestro amor será un himno".
Ambas son hermosas canciones y siempre disfruto escuchandolas.

Jairo - Nuestro Amor Sera Un Himno

A pesar de que esta canción (según parece) fue cantada originalmente por "Formula V" yo la conocí primero con "Fedra y Maximiliano", al cabo de los años cuando "DIDECA" lanzó un L.P. de recopilación de éxitos de "Formula V" descubrí que ellos la habían cantado primero.
Personalmente me gusta más la versión de "Fedra y Maximiliano", como he comentado anteriormente, Canal 11 de la televisión guatemalteca  cada Sábado transmitía peliculas argentinas, una de esas peliculas se llamaba "Pimienta y Pimentón" y ahí aparecieron "Fedra y Maximiliano" intepretando esta canción, hasta el momento solamente en esa pelicula he visto a este duo argentino.

Fedra y Maximiliano - Cuentame

Karina (Postal)

Cuando conseguí este disco 45 me emocioné mucho porque durante mucho tiempo lo estuve buscando, si la memoria no me falla fue allá por 1982. La canción es más o menos de 1975 y ya se escucha un poco más madura a Karina.

De  " La 5ta. Reserva " tengo muy poca información, eso no quita en lo absoluto que no me encanten sus canciones, relativamente son pocas pero muy buenas. La canción " Amores que se lleva el viento " se escuchaba muchisimo en "La Voz del hogar".  Espero algún día poder tener más información de ellos.

El grupo "The Kinks" es uno de mis grupos preferidos, la canción "Sunny Afternoon"  es una de las clásicas de este gran grupo.

The Kinks - Sunny Afternoon

The Kinks

And I can't sail my yacht
He's taken everything I've got
All I've got's this sunny afternoon

Save me, save me
Save me from this squeeze
I got a big fat mama
Trying to break me

And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon

In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime

My girlfriend's run off with my car
And gone back to her ma and pa
Telling tales of
Drunkenness and cruelty

Now I'm sitting here
Sipping at my ice cold beer
Lazing on a sunny afternoon

Help me, help me
Help me sail away
Well, give me two good
Reasons why I oughta stay

Cause I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon

In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime

Ah, save me, save me
Save me from this squeeze
I got a big fat mama
Trying to break me

And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon

In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime

Me gustan varias canciones de "The Rolling Stones", principalmente las que lanzaron durante los 60's. La canción "Heart Of Stone" me gusta escucharla porque tiene el sonido agresivo, seco y duro que caracterizó a "The Rolling Stones".

Heart Of Stone

The Rolling Stones

Here comes the little girl
I see her walking down the street
She's all by herself
I try and knock her off her feet

But she'll
Never break, never break
Never break, never break
This heart of stone
Oh, no, no
This heart of stone

What's different about her
I don't really know
No matter how I try
I just can't make her cry

Cause she'll
Never break, never break
Never break, never break
This heart of stone
Oh, no, no, no
This heart of stone

Don't keep on looking
That some old way
If you try acting sad
You'll only make me glad

Better listen, little girl
You go on walking down the street
I ain't got no love
I ain't the kind to meet

Cause you'll
Never break, never break
Never break, never break
This heart of stone
Oh, no, no

You'll never break
This heart of stone, darling
No, no, this heart of stone
You'll never break it, darling

You won't break
This heart of stone
Oh, no, no, no
You better go
You better go home

Cause you'll, you'll never
Break this heart of stone

"The Wanderer" es una tremenda canción de "Dion", me encanta escucharla.  El lado "B" de este disco 45 R.P.M. "The Majestic" también me gusta mucho porque se escucha claramente la voz de "Dion" y los coros.

Dion - The Wanderer

Dion

I kiss em and I love em
Cause to me they're all the same
I hug em and I squeeze em
They don't even know my name

They call me the wanderer
Yeah, the wanderer
I roam, around, around
Around, around

Oh, well, there's Flo on my left
And there's Mary on my right
And Janie is the girl
Well, that I'll be with tonight

And when she asks me
Which one I love the best
I tear open my shirt
I got Rosie on my chest

Cause I'm the wanderer
Yeah, the wanderer
I roam, around, around
Around, around

Oh, well, I roam from town to town
I go through life without a care
And I'm happy as a clown
With my two fists of iron
But I'm going nowhere

Oh, yeah, I'm the type of guy
That likes to roam around
I'm never in one place
I roam from town to town

And when I find myself
A-falling for some girl, yeah
I hop right into that car of mine
I drive around the world

Yeah, I'm the wanderer
Yeah, the wanderer
I roam, around, around
Around, around

Oh, yeah, I'm the type of guy
That likes to roam around
I'm never in one place
I roam from town to town

And when I find myself
A-falling for some girl
I hop right into that car of mine
Drive around the world

Cause I'm a wanderer
Yeah, the wanderer
I roam around, around, around
Around, around, around

Cause I'm a wanderer
Yeah, the wanderer
I roam around, around, around
Around, around, around

La canción "Runaround Sue" la conocimos en Guatemala como "Susy la coquetona", me gusta mucho la canción.
Mayte Gaos lanzó una versión al español, me gusta también pero tengo preferencia por la original.

Recuerdo muy bien cuando conseguí el disco 45 R.P.M., estaba muy viejo pero se escuchaba bien, en ese tiempo era bastante complicado conseguir los discos en el mercado local (me refiero a Guatemala), gracias a amigos que viajaba a otros países fue que logré conseguir otros que muy difícilmente hubiera podido conseguir.

Regresando al tema del discos 45 R.P.M., el lado "B" contenía la canción "Runaway Girl" y también la escuchaba porque quería conocer todo lo que pudiera de "Dion", con el tiempo me llegó a gustar esa canción, escucharla me remonta a esos tiempos.
 

Dion - Runaround Sue

Dion

Here's my story, it's sad but true
It's about a girl that I once knew
She took my love then ran around
With every single guy in town

Hey, hey, wooah
Hey, hey, wooah....

I should have known it
From the very start
This girl will leave me
With a broken heart

Now listen. people
What I'm telling you
A-keep away from-a Runaround Sue
Yeah, yeah

I miss her lips
And the smile on her face
The touch of her hair
And this girl's warm embrace

So if you don't
Wanna cry like I do
A-keep away from-a
Runaround Sue

Woah.....

She likes to travel around, yeah
She'll love you
And she'll put you down
Now people let me put you wise
Sue goes out with other guys

Here's the moral and the story
From the guy who knows
I fell in love
And my love still grows

Ask any fool
That she ever knew
They'll say keep away
From-a Runaround Sue

Keep away from this girl
I dont know what she'll do
Keep away from Sue

She likes to travel around
She'll love you
And she'll put you down
Now people let me put you wise
Sue goes out with other guys

Here's the moral and the story
From that guy who knows
I fell in love
And my love still grows

Ask any fool
That she ever knew
They'll say keep away
From-a Runaround Sue, yeah

Stay away from that girl
Dont you know what
She'll do now, woah

Dion - Runaway Girl
