Por fin llegó el día. El sábado me voy de vacaciones así que no actualizaré esto al menos hasta dentro de dos semanas (como si ahora lo hiciera con más frecuencia;)). Me voy a Conil, a disfrutar de las playas aglomeradas, de los bares petados y de las calles sin un metro cuadrado libre para pasear... pero me da igual.
Seguramente agosto, no sea el mejor mes para disfrutar de Conil, sin embargo te ofrece todo lo que puedes querer para unas vacaciones veraniegas: sol, playa, lugares variados para disfrutar (la costa de Cádiz es una maravilla) y fiesta, mucha fiesta. Seguramente no es lugar ideal para disfrutar de las vacaciones en familia , sin embargo si eres joven, es difícil encontrar un sitio mejor teniendo en cuenta la variable calidad-precio. Aunque dicho sea de paso, no vendría mal un poco más de control, porque a veces es un poco caótico, especialmente el tema de las carpas... pero esto es otra historia.
Bueno, pues eso, que me voy a Conil, y para irme metiendo en sintonía con lo que me espera os pongo una serie de canciones que yo relaciono directamente con estas vacaciones veraniegas:
Primeramente, como no, reaggeton. Me hace gracia porque fue sin duda la canción del año pasado (menos mal que son dos semanas al año)
Daddy & Match - Pasame La Botella
En segundo lugar un poco de flamenco-pop que tanto se estila por estos lares ;)
Los Delinqüentes - El aire de la calle
Y para terminar un poquito de Quique González. Dos canciones que identifico directamente con Conil.
Quique González - Salitre
Quique González - La ciudad del viento

Mando Diao - Give me fire
Gloria o Dance whit somebody, Dance whit somebody o Gloria. Este era mi dilema sobre que canción de Mando Diao podría ilustrar mejor este post. Este grupo sueco llevan tocando desde 1996 y sacaron su primer disco en 2002. Para los expertos, sus primeros discos fueron los mejores. No lo sé. Habrá que escucharlos. De momento yo me quedo con este último, del que he leído que es bastante peor que sus antecesores… pues a mí me tiene encantado. Como casi siempre, no coincido con la una parte de la crítica (no toda claro). Supongo que no sería un buen crítico… ¿o sí?
Volviendo al principio, como no me decidía por cuál de las dos poner, me decanté por la opción fácil: las dos. Así que aquí os dejo dos pildorazos del último disco de Mando Diao. Dos temazos, que como todo el disco, parecen extraídos de una banda sonora de James Bond, pero no del de ahora, sino del James Bond de los años 60 o 70 cuando era original.
¿No me digáis que no os dan ganas de poneros a bailar y pegar saltos (bueno, en mi caso más bien esta segunda opción)? En fin, que espero vuestra opinión.
Mando Diao - Gloria
Well now, she don't need to see the sun
ahead
don't need that help from god above
If you're losing her don't be sad
cause she will offer you heart attacks
She's tired of problems that you caused
her mind
Tired of all those lies in your freak show
Tired of being alone at night
being the lowest cat on earth
So Gloria steps out from the prison
Gloria's no longer the wasted disco girl
you've been dreaming about
Gloria alone now forever Gloria away in
the air now
Gloria she's no longer your slave
It's time for you to see yourself
all the misery you brought up
Gloria's one day ahead
watching you from the heaven's gate
She's tired of problems that you caused
her mind
Tired of all those lies in your freak show
Tired of being alone at night
being the lowest cat on earth
So Gloria steps out of the prison
Gloria's no longer the wasted disco girl
you've been dreaming about
Gloria alone now forever Gloria away in
the air now
Gloria she's no longer your slave
Gloria alone now forever Gloria away in
the air now
Gloria she´s no longer your slave
No, not anymore
Gloria steps out of the prison
Gloria's no longer the wasted disco girl
you've been dreaming about
Gloria alone now forever Gloria away in
the air now
Gloria she´s no longer your slave
Mando Diao - Dance whit somebody
Break your happy home
Learn to sing along
To the music, to the music
Clap your hands and shake
On a summer's day
To the music, to the music
I'm falling in love with your favourite song
I'm gonna sing it all night long
I'm gonna dance with somebody
Dance with somebody
Dance, dance, dance
I'm gonna dance with somebody
When you're all alone
We become your home
We're the music, we're the music
When your love's away
And you feel betrayed
We're the music, sweet music
I'm falling in love with your favourite song
I'm gonna sing it all night long
I'm gonna dance with somebody
Dance with somebody
Dance, dance, dance
I'm falling in love with your favourite song
I'm gonna sing it all night long
I'm gonna dance with somebody
Dance with somebody
Dance, dance, dance

Cover: The Killers versionan a Dire Straits
Tremenda versión la que se marcaron The Killers con el tema Romeo and Juliet de Dire Straits, una de las mejoras canciones de mi vida.
Aquí os dejo las dos a ver cual os gusta más. Yo me quedo con la original, seguramente por lo que significa para mi, aunque reconozco que me encanta esta versión.
The Killers - Romero and Juliet (2007)
Dire Straits - Romeo and Juliet (1981)
A lovestruck Romeo, sings the streets a serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade
Says something like, "You and me, babe, how about it?"
Juliet says, "Hey, it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack"
He's underneath the window, she's singing
"Hey, la, my boyfriend's back
You shouldn't come around here, singing up people like that
Anyway, what you gonna do about it?"
Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start
And I bet, that you exploded in my heart
And I forget, I forget.. the movie song
When you gonna realize, it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame
Both dirty, both mean, yes and the dream was just the same
And I dream your dream for you and now your dream is real
How can you look at me, as if I was just another one of your deals?
Well, you can fall for chains of silver, you can fall for chains of gold
You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold
You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin, yeah
Now you just say, "Oh, Romeo, yeah, you know
I used to have a scene with him"
Juliet, when we made love, you used to cry
I said, "I love you like the stars above, I love you 'till I die"
And there's a place for us, you know the movie song
When you gonna realize, it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
I can't do the talk, like the talk on the TV
And I can't do a love song, like the way it's meant to be
I can't do everything, but I'd do anything for you
I can't do anything except be in love with you
And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be
All I do is keep the beat, and the bad company
And all I do is kiss you, through the bars of a rhyme
Juliet, I'd do the stars with you any time
Juliet, when we made love, you used to cry
I said, "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'till I die"
There's a place for us, you know the movie song
When you gonna realize, it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
A lovestruck Romeo, sings the streets of serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Find a convenient streetlight, and steps out of the shade
He says something like, "You and me, babe -how about it?"
