'Borders'

de Sunshine Underground
tsuarmy.co.uk
myspace.com/thesunshineunderground

Would you stop talking,
Because I don't think we agree,
You're always keeping all your borders up,
I'm thinking something must be wrong with me,
Well i know you don't like it,
You're no exclusive company,
You're always keeping all your borders up,
And it's a little more than you and me.

Well somebodies had a harder time,
But your always on the attack,
Have they been giving you the run-around,
And now you're trying to get your own back?
Well i know you don't like it,
You're no exclusive company,
You're always keeping all your borders up,
And it's a little more than you and me,
I'm not guilty.

Oh well I better say something,
To stop us creeping round these avenues,
You're always keeping all your borders up,
I bet you're getting a little confused,
I don't think so.
Well it's time to turn this thing around, Well there's no reason for this thing you found,
We're always keeping all our borders up,
I think it's time we tore them all down.

You've got to fight for a reason, what's your reason? You never cared,
You've got to fight for a reason, what's your reason? You never cared...

'Our Velocity'

de Maximo Park
maximopark.com
myspace.com/maximopark

' I’m not a man, I’m a machine
Chisel me down until I am clean
I buy books, I never read
And then I’ll tell you some more about me

Beneath the concrete there’s a sound
A muffled cry below the ground
There is a poison in the air
A mix of chemicals and fear

Mum and Dad you're sponges
I’m not sure what they mean
You’re asking for commitment
When I’m somewhere in between

Never, never try to gauge temperature
When you tend to travel
At such speed
It's Our Velocity
Is it cold where you are this time of the year
You didn’t leave a scar

I’ve seen that numbers hit a screen
And you’re expected to know what they mean
Throughout the conflict I was serene
I can't outrun the sadness I’ve seen

Are you willing to resist
The people you’ve never meet
The devil's wheel revolves
But it needs to be reset

Never, never try to gauge temperature
When you tend to travel
At such speed
It's Our Velocity
Please tell me is it cold where you are this time of the year
You didn’t leave a scar

I’ve got no one to call
In the middle of the night anymore

I’m just alone
With these thoughts

I’ve got no one to call
In the middle of the night anymore

I'm just alone
With my thoughts

I watched a film to change my feelings
Strong enough to bear a burden
If everyone became this sensitive
I wouldn't have to be so sensitive

If everyone became so sensitive
Perhaps I wouldn't be so sensitive

Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to
Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to
Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to
Love is a lie

I’ve got no one to call
In the middle of the night anymore

I’m just alone
With these thoughts

I’ve got no one to call
In the middle of the night anymore

I’m just alone
With my thoughts

Never, never try to guage temperature
When you tend to travel
At such speed
It's Our Velocity '

'Outro Futuro'

de Balla
balla.com.pt
myspace.com/ballaportugal

« Eu nunca tentei
Eu nunca escondi
Eu nunca te amei
Eu nunca deixei

Mas nunca por ti
Nunca antevi
Nunca fiquei
a um passo de ti

Nunca me afastei
Para fora e nos vi
Para ver o quão longe
gostava de ti

Eu nunca dei um passo atrás
que não fosse capaz
de um dia o emendar
Sonhar com outro futuro
Muito menos duro
que nos ponha a brilhar »

'Oversleeping'

de I'm From Barcelona
imfrombarcelona.com
myspace.com/imfrombarcelona

« Damn! Oversleeping again
Damn! I can't believe I did it once again

I can make it in time
if I jump out of bed
if I skip to wear clothes
and get running instead
if I get on my feet
if I skip to hit snooze
if I don't care to eat
and get running instead
I can make it in time

Been oversleeping on Monday
I don't care let's pretend that it's Sunday »

' Empty '

de Metric
ilovemetric.com
myspace.com/metricband

« There is no way out, the only way out is to give in
When there is no way out, the only way out is to give in
How I love to
How I love to
How I love to give in

Here no one sleeps, one lays up while the other lies down
Where no one sleeps, one lays up while the other lies down
Ask the line on your face what the line on your hand meant
We couldn't see what was coming

Shake your head it's empty
Shake your hips move your feet
Shake your head it's empty
Shake your hips move your feet
Shake your head it's empty(x4)

I'm so glad that I'm an island
I'm so glad that I'm an island
I'm so glad that I'm an island now

Bop-a-da-da(x5)

Sickness was fixing me some
Coughed out my heart in the last stall
Now that the damage is done
I never miss it at all »

'Postcards from Italy'

de Beirut
beirutband.com
myspace.com/beruit

« The times we had
Oh, when the wind would blow with rain and snow
Were not all bad
We put our feet just where they had
Had to go
Never to go

The shattered soul
Following close but nearly twice as slow
Were my good times
There were always golden rocks to throw
At those who
Those who admit defeat too late
Those were our times
Those were our times

And I will love to see that day
That day is mine
When she will marry me
Outside with the willow trees
And playing songs in May
What made me so
And I would love to see that day
The day was mine »

'Burning'

de The Whitest Boy Alive

« So many people telling me one way
So many people telling me to stay
Never had time to have my mind made up
Caught in a motion that I don't wanna stop

So many people telling me one way
So many people telling me to stay
Never had time to have my mind made up
Caught in a motion that I don't wanna stop

So many people telling me one way
So many people telling me to stay
Never had time to have my mind made up
Caught in a motion that I don't wanna stop

So many people telling me one way
So many people telling me to stay
Never had time to have my mind made up
Caught in a motion that I don't wanna stop
That I don't wanna stop
That I don't wanna stop »

'Intervention'

de Arcade Fire

« The king’s taken back the throne
The useless seed is sewn
Then they say they’re cuttin’ off the phone,
We’ll tell ‘um we’re not home

No place to hide
You’re fightin’ as a solider on their side
You’re still a soldier in your mind
But nothin’s on the line

Say it’s money that we need
As if there were only mouths to feed
And knowin’ no matter what you say
There’s some debts you’ll never pay

Workin’ for the church while you family dies
They take what they give you and they keep it inside
Every spark of friendship and love
Will die without a home

Hear the soldier groan
All Quiet And Alone

I can taste the fear
Lift me up and take me outta here
Don’t wanna fight, don’t wanna die
Just wanna hear you cry

Who’s gonna throw the very first stone?
Oh, who’s gonna reset the bone?
Walkin’ with your head in a sling
Wanna hear the soldier sing

Workin’ for the church while my family dies
Your little baby sister’s gonna lose her mind
Every spark of friendship and love
Will die without a home

Hear the soldier groan
All Quiet And Alone

I can taste your fear
It’s gonna lift you up and take you outta hear
And the bone shall never heal
And I cannot make you kneel

We can’t find you now
But they’re gonna get their money back somehow
And when you finally disappear
We’ll just say you were never here

You’re workin’ for the church while your life falls apart
Been singin’ “Hallelujah” with the fear in your heart
Every spark of friendship and love
Will die without a home

Hear the soldier groan
All Quiet And Alone

Hear the soldier groan
All Quiet And Alone »

Chelsea Dagger

de The Fratellies

« Well you must be a girl with shoes like that
she said you know me well
I seen you and little steven and Joanna
Round the back of my hotel oh yeah

Someone said you was asking after me
But I know you best as a blagger
I said tell me your name is it sweet?
She said my boy it’s dagger oh yeah

I was good she was hot
Stealin' everything she got
I was bold she was over the worst of it
Gave me gear thank you dear
bring yer sister over here
Let her dance with me just for the hell of it

Well you must be a boy with bones like that
She said you got me wrong
I would’ve sold them to you
If I could’ve just have kept
the last of my clothes on
Call me up take me down with you
When you go I could be your regular belle
And I’ll dance for little steven and Joanna
Round the back of my hotel oh yeah

I was good she was hot
Stealin everything she got
I was bold she was over the worst of it
Gave me gear thank you dear
bring yer sister over here
Let her dance with me just for the hell of it

Chelsea Chelsea I believe
that when your dancing
Slowly sucking your sleeve
That all the boys get lonely after you leave
And it’s one for the Dagger
and another for the one you believe

Chelsea Chelsea I believe that
when your dancing
Slowly sucking your sleeve
That all the boys get lonely after you leave
And it’s one for the Dagger
and another for the one you believe »

Off the Hook

de Cansei de Ser Sexy

« Why is that stand so still? (still)
People gonna start thinking we're statues (aha)
This silence is disturbing me
People talk but I can't hear
I'm off the hook (Auuuh)
Off the hook
I think I'm off the hook, babe
Off the hook
Let's find us both a place to sit
The more I talk the more my bones get heavy
The silence is disturbing me
Don't they know I can't read lips?
I'm off the hook (Auuuh)
Off the hook
I think I'm off the hook, babe
Off the hook
yeah..
Yeah, you were right this is really fun
I never got this dumb before
I'm off the hook (Auuuh)
Off the hook
I think I'm off the hook, babe
Off the hook
Why is that stand so still?
People gonna start thinking we're statues
The silence is disturbing me
People talk but I can't hear
I'm off the hook »

When You Were Young

de The Killers

« You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now ... here he comes!

He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentlemen
Like you imagined when you were young

Can we climb this mountain
I don't know
Higher now than ever before
I know we can make it if we take it slow
Let's take it easy
Easy now, watch it go

We're burning down the highway skyline
On the back of a hurricane that started turning
When you were young
When you were young

And sometimes you close your eyes
and see the place where you used to live
When you were young

They say the devil's water, it ain't so sweet
You don't have to drink right now
But you can dip your feet
Every once in a little while

You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now here he comes

He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentlemen
Like you imagined when you were young
(He talks like a gentlemen, like you imagined when)
When you were young

I said he doesn't look a thing like Jesus
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But more than you'll ever know »




"When You Were Young" é o novo single dos The Killers que sairá oficialmente dia 18 de Setembro. "Sam's Town", o álbum, sai dia 2 de Outubro.

Supermassive Black Hole

de Muse

« Oh baby dont you know I suffer?
Oh baby can you hear me moan?
You caught me under false pretences
How long before you let me go?

You set my soul alight
You set my soul alight

(You set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive

(You set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the 'supermassive'

I thought I was a fool for no-one
Oh baby I'm a fool for you
You're the queen of the superficial
And how long before you tell the truth

You set my soul alight
You set my soul alight

(You set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive

(You set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the 'supermassive'

Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole

Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive

Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive

(You set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive

(You set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive

Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole »

Supermassive Black Hole

Categoria: Música, Notícias


... é o nome do novo single dos Muse, que irá sair dia 19 de Junho, mas que já anda a circular na net. O novo álbum (4º da banda) chamar-se-á Black Holes And Revelations irá ser lançado dia 3 de Julho. O alinhamento é o seguinte:

1. Take A Bow
2. Starlight
3. Supermassive Black Hole
4. Map Of The Problematique
5. A Soldier's Poem
6.Invincible
7. Assassin
8. Exo Politics
9. City Of Delusion
10. Hoodoo
11. Knights Of Cydonia

Em entrevista ao NME.COM, Matt Bellamy diz: "I was going out dancing in clubs around New York. That helped create tracks like 'Supermassive Black Hole'. Franz [Ferdinand] have done it very well, with that dance type beat going on mixed with alternative guitar and I've always wanted to find that."
Enquanto se espera pelo CD vai-se ouvindo o single (clique aqui para ouvir Supermassive Black Hole) e esperar que o álbum não se fique apenas pelo que este nos indica. Óptimo seria que eles viessem a Portugal, ao Sudoeste mais concretamente...

Honeybear

de Yeah Yeah Yeahs

« Turn yourself around, you weren’t invited
Turn yourself around, you weren’t invited
Good good things happen in bad towns
Good good things happen in bad towns

Runaway, runaway you want it
Runaway, runaway you want it
Runaway anyway you want it
Runaway, runaway you want it

What, what did you do to your back hips
Soft ones, curled lips can’t get ‘em back
Junk jump off too much time for
Old beats, cold beats, I’m just cold meat

Runaway, runaway you want it
Runaway, runaway you want it
Runaway anyway you want it
Runaway, runaway you want it

Oh all alone
I’ve got a call from the bear
Gonna take all his honey honey
Done, all alone
I’ve got a call from the bear
Gonna take all its honey honey
Done, all alone
I’ve got a call from the bear
Gonna take all his honey honey
Done, all alone
I’ve got a call from the bear
Gonna take all its honey honey

Runaway, runaway you want it
Runaway, runaway you want it
Runaway anyway you want it
Runaway, runaway you want it
What, what, what, what »
