Casa de ladrillos

Aww! She's a brick house. She's mighty, mighty, just lettin' it all hang out.

"The Commodores - Brick House"

"The clothes she wears, the sexy ways,

make an old man wish for younger days ..."

Sin Rendición

No es lo mío pero es irrelevante. Hoy se trata de recordar que la libertad de expresión es uno de nuestros más preciados derechos: vídeo.

"H. Kanino - Sin Rendición"

"Ya sé que esto no vende y que no suena en vuestra radio,

que no sale en la MTV, pero tampoco es necesario ..."

P.S. Lucille is his guitar

You know, if I could sing pop tunes like Frank Sinatra 

or Sammy Davis Junior, I don't think I still could do it, 

'cause Lucille don't wanna play nothing but the blues.

I think I'm ... (laugh), I think I'm pretty glad about that,

'cause don't nobody sing to me like Lucille ...

Sing, Lucille!

"B.B. King - Lucille"

" Well, I'll put it like this (take it easy, Lucille):

I like the way Sammy sings and I like the way Frank sings,

but I can get a little Frank, Sammy, a little Ray Charles,

in fact all the people with soul, in this. A little Mahalia Jackson in there.

One more, Lucille! "

And then she stopped

Hace ya casi 50 años.

"Dizzy Gillespie - And then she stopped"

" ... "

Mentí por ti

Una y otra vez.


"Dover - Devil came to me"

"Everybody say now I will take the lessons that I forgot to learn at school,
and they go like: «Everybody say you deserve what you get» ,
but oh, no, I didn't mean to hurt; I lied for you ..."

Puedes dejarte el sombrero ...

Si quieres.

"Joe Cocker - You can leave your hat on"

"Go on over there, turn on the light. No, all the lights. 

Come over here, stand on this chair; that's right.

Raise your arms up into the air, now shake'em.

You give me a reason to live, sweet darling."

La lista de la compra

¡Qué bonito el mar! Cuando lo miro a tu lado olvido las pateras,

las mareas negras, los alijos incautados, 

la playa en donde se dejan morir las ballenas,

este infumable plato combinado ...

"La Cabra Mecánica (con María Jiménez) - La Lista de la Compra"

"Y aunque me engañe y me diga que no,
siempre estás tú detrás de mi mejor yo,
que aunque no soy pa' ti (que soy pa' contigo),
el mundo es tan redondo como el piercing de tu ombligo.
La cosa se pone dura sin tu aliento; 
siento, con amargura, que estoy perdiendo la frescura, 

que se vuelve frío sin tu calor y sin droga dura."

Verano

Nos hemos saltado la primavera.

"Antonio Vivaldi - Verano (Las Cuatro Estaciones)"

" ... "

R.I.P. James Gandolfini

La entrada de hoy va por él.

"Alabama 3 - Woke Up This Morning"

"You woke up this morning, got yourself a gun.

Mama always said you'd be the chosen one.

She said: «You're one in a million, you've got to burn to shine,

but you were born under a bad sign, with a blue moon in your eyes.»"

Pero el cielo es cada vez más azul

Cada vez, y por siempre.

"Rino Gaetano - Ma il cielo è sempre più blu"

"Chi ha crisi interiori, chi scava nei cuori,

chi legge la mano, chi regna sovrano,

chi suda, chi lotta, chi mangia una volta,

chi gli manca la casa, chi vive da solo,

chi prende assai poco, chi gioca col fuoco ..."

Y me pregunto cómo ser yo mismo ...

¿Dónde cojones estarán las instrucciones de mi mecanismo?

"Belo y los Susodichos - Con un serrucho"

"Y salgo a la calle con mi guitarra, y ...

¡To' el mundo al suelo, cojones, que está cargada!"

¡Ay! ¿Qué le estará pasando al probe Migué?

Remember.

"Triana Pura - El probe Migué"

"Me dicen, me dicen que Miguelito entre nosotros se encuentra muy extraño,

él dice que es feliz en la montaña, que se está convirtiendo en ermitaño ..."

Canción de cuna

Tanta publicidad hace, al fin, efecto en mí.

"Correos - Canción de Cuna"

"Vístete, no voy a esperarte. Trato de volver a ser el de antes.

Vístete, no voy a esperarte. Hay una salida pero yo, yo no sé llevarte."

Una sola puerta, de tres, abierta

Una sola puerta.

"Extrechinato y Tú - Tres puertas"

"Y yo no he muerto... Me alegro de la lluvia y me alegro del viento.

Si tengo frío, me caliento. Si tengo miedo, que NO lo tengo, susurro y pienso."

Señoras que empujan en el metro ...

Basada en hechos reales.

"El Reno Renardo - Señoras"

"En los platós de Telecinco disfrutan del esparcimiento,

bailando al son de un politono y dando palmas a destiempo.

En bata y rulos salen al balcón: «¡Id a otra parte a jugar al balón!»"

¡Qué cuki!

2 días llevo sin poder acceder al blog y solo tenía que borrar las cookies, 

las putas cookies ...

Bueno, no ha sido culpa mía del todo sino del cada vez más evidente (y abusivo) intento de control por parte de algunos países sobre internet. Ahora El Rincón del Guitarrista se redirecciona a .es, como si no fuera ya bastante con el .blogspot y el .com. Si esto sigue así puede que algún día la dirección del blog sea algo como elrincondelguitarrista.blogspot.com.es.cl.le.minibabybel.olakease.pollasenvinagre.wtf 

En fin.

"Extremoduro (con Rosendo) - La canción de los oficios"

"En mi casa sí hay dinero, traficando barcos llenos.

Soy muy listo; me administro. A tu costa soy ministro.

En mi casa no hay dinero, gano poco, soy minero.

Me la juego, día a día muero, me apalean si me quejo ..."

Doc, it's only a scratch ...

Rocky Racoon checked into his room only to find Gideon's bible.

Rocky had come equipped with a gun to shoot off the legs of his rival.

His rival, it seems, had broken his dreams by stealing the girl of his fancy.

Her name was Magil and she called herself Lil, but everyone knew her as Nancy.

"The Beatles - Rocky Racoon"

"Now she and her man, who called himself Dan, were in the next room,
at the hoe down. Rocky burst in and grinning a grin, he said:

 «Danny, boy, this is a showdown.»

But Daniel was hot; he drew first and shot,
 and Rocky collapsed in the corner ..."

You're gonna get what's coming

You lay on your back and the weak get weaker,

you could've been a doctor but at least you're not a preacher ...

"Rival Sons - Get What's Coming"

"You lay on your back and the strong get stronger,

you say you've got the flu but we know it's just hunger."

She's not a girl who misses much

¡Cuánto tiempo hacía que no escuchaba el White Album de The Beatles!

Cuánto tiempo malgastado.

"The Beatles - Happiness is a Warm Gun"

"Happiness is a Warm Gun. Yes, it is."

Hágase el rock

In the beginning, back in nineteen fifty five,

Man didn't know 'bout a rock 'n roll show 'n all that jive.

The white man had the schmaltz, the black man had the blues,

no one knew what they was gonna do but Tchaikovsky had the news ...

He said :

"ACDC - Let There Be Rock"

" «Let there be sound!» - And there was sound.

«Let there be light!» - And there was light.

«Let there be drums!» - There was drums.

«Let there be guitar!» - There was guitar.

«Let there be ROCK!» "

She's got it

Está claro que Gillette sabe elegir la música de sus anuncios.

"Shocking Blue - Venus"

"A goddess on a mountain top was burning like a silver flame,

the summit of a beauty and love, and Venus was her name.

She's got it. Yeah, baby, she's got it.

Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire at your desire ..."

Great balls of fire

Jerry Lee Lewis, todo un artista. Repetirá seguro.

"Jerry Lee Lewis - Great Balls of Fire"

"You shake my nerves and rattle my brain;

too much love drives a man insane ..."

Asturias

Una y otra vez.

"John Williams - Asturias (Leyenda) (Isaac Albéniz Cover)"

" ... "

God speed your love to me

Tierno como algodón.

"The Righteous Brothers - Unchained Melody"

"Oh, my love, my darling, 

I've hungered for your touch a long lonely time,

and time goes by so slowly, and time can do so much ...

Are you still mine?"

El mago del Pinball

Es ciego, sordo y tonto, pero existe.

"The Who - Pinball Wizard (Live)"

"Ever since I was a young boy I've played the silver ball,

from Soho down to Brighton I must have played them all,

but I ain't seen nothing like him in any amusement hall:

that deaf, dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball."

Esta obra de sombras

I'm still not sure what part I play in this shadow play ...

"Rory Gallagher - Shadow Play (Live)"

"Sounds come crashing and I hear laughing, all those lights just blaze away.

I feel a little strange inside: a little bit of Jekyll, a little Mr. Hyde."
