La Barca

composed by Roberto Cantoral
performed by Luis Miguel

Dicen que la distancia es el olvido,
pero yo no concibo esa razón,
porque yo seguiré siendo el cautivo
de los caprichos de tu corazón.

Supiste esclarecer mi pensamiento,
me diste la verdad que yo soñé,
ahuyentaste de mí los sufrimientos
en la primera noche que te amé.

Hoy, mi playa se viste de amargura,
porque tu barca tiene que partir,
a buscar otros mares de locura.
Cuida que no naufrague tu vivir.

Cuando la luz del sol se esté apagando
y te sientas cansada de vagar,
piensa que yo por tí estaré esperando
hasta que tú decidas regresar.

Baru belajar lagu tua ini ... Old yet Beautiful. Pertama denger di midi, udah gitu tahu dari album "Mis Boleros Favoritos"-nya Luis Miguel. Sekarang udah bisa ngemaininnya [BoleroLento t89 +Soprano Sax +Flute + NylonGitar + SymphonyStrings]. Sekarang mo cari tau artinya apaan.

Close To You

Why do birds suddenly appear
everytime you are near?
Just like me they long to be close to you

Why are stars falling from the sky
everytime you walk by?
Just like me they long to be close to you

   On the the day that you were born
   the angels got together
   and decided to create a dream come true
   So they sprinkled moondust in your hair
   of gold and starlight in your eyes of blue

That is why all the boys in town
Follow you all around
Just like me they long to be close to you

Baru belajar hari minggu kemaren, dari si penggemar MG.
Ternyata lagu ini jadi soundtrack di MG II. Nggak nonton sih makanya nggak tahu. Gara-gara lagi seneng baru bisa lagu ini, kita ngemaenin ini bareng-bareng sampe 15 kali sesorean. Padahal maennya di rumah orang sambil ngetes sound system di itu rumah.

Santeria

by Sublime



I don't practice santeria
I aint got no crystal ball.
I had a million dollars but I'd,
I'd spend it all.
If I could find that heina and that sancho that she's found,
well I'd pop a cap in sancho and I'd slap her down.

What I really wanna know,
my baby, what I really want to say I can't define.
Well it's love,
that I need, oh ,
but my soul will have to,
wait till I get back and find heina of my own.
Daddy's gonna love one and all.

I feel the break,
feel the break,
feel the break and I got to live it up,
oh, yea huh, well I swear that I.
What I really wanna know, baby,
what I really want to say I can't define.
that love make it go,
my soul will have to...

What I really wanna say,
my baby,
What I really wanna say is I've got mine.
and I'll make it, Yes, I'm comin' up.

Tell sanchito that if he knows what is good for him he best go run and hide.
Daddy's got a new .45.
and I won't think twice to stick that barrel straight down sancho's throat.
Believe me when I say that I got somethin for his punk ass.
What I really wanna know, my baby,
what I really wanna say is there's just one,
way back,
and I'll make it, yea,
but my soul will have to wait.
yea, yea, yea

Kemaren malem, sekalian manasin kibor yang udah empat hari dikandangin, gw ngemaenin lagu ini gara-gara ada rikues dari adek gw buat maenin ska. Top juga. Berhubung blom ada style ska jadinya pake reggae yang dicepetin aja. Lumayan mirip. Tinggal tambahin brass section-nya aja. Ayo pada pogo dance.


Btw, santeria apaan sih?
Santeria adalah agama sinkretis yang berasal dari Karibia yang menggabungkan unsur-unsur penyembahan Orisha (yang artinya "penjaga utama") dan kepercayaan dari sukubangsa Yoruba dan Bantu di Nigeria Selatan, Senegal dan Pantai Guyana. Udah gitu ditambah lagi unsur-unsur dari Katolik Roma.


Oh gitu. Trus?

Baca ndiri deh.

Boleros

from Luis Miguel's Mis Boleros Favoritos (2002)

Sabor a mi

Tanto tiempo disfrutamos de este amor
nuestras almas se acercaron tanto asi
que yo guardo tu sabor
pero tu llevas tambien
sabor a mi.

Si negaras mi presencia en tu vivir
bastaria con abrazarte y conversar
tanta vida yo te di
que por fuerza tienes ya
sabor a mi.

No pretendo ser tu dueno
no soy nada yo no tengo vanidad
de mi vida doy lo bueno
soy tan pobre, que otra cosa puedo dar.

Pasaran mas de mil años, muchos mas
yo no se si tenga amor la eternidad
pero alla, tal como aquí
el la boca llevaras
sabor a mi

La Historia de Un Amor

Ya no estás más a mi lado, corazón
En el alma solo tengo soledad
Y si ya no puedo verte
Porque Dios me hizo quererte
Para hacerme sufrir más

Tiada lagi engkau di sisiku, sayang
Di hati ini hanya ada kesendirian
Jika aku tak dapat bersua denganmu
Mengapa Tuhan membuatku mencintaimu
hanya untuk membuatku menderita lagi

Siempre fuiste la razón de mi existir
Adorarte para mí fue religión
Y en tus besos yo encontraba
El calor que me brindaba
El amor, y la pasión

Dirimu selalu jadi alasan bagi adaku
Mencintaimu bagai religi bagiku
Dalam kecupanmu kutemui cahya yang terangiku
juga cinta serta gairah

Es la historia de un amor
Como no hay otro igual
Que me hizo comprender
Todo el bien, todo el mal

Que le dio luz a mi vida
Apagándola después
Ay que vida tan obscura
Sin tu amor no viviré

Solamente una vez

Solamente una vez
Amé en la vida
Solamente una vez
Y nada más

Hanya sekali aku mencinta dalam hidup
Hanya sekali, tak lebih

Una vez nada más
En mi huerto
Brilló la esperanza
La esperanza que alumbra el camino
De mi soledad

Una vez nada más
Se entrega el alma
Con la dulce y total
Renunciacion

Hanya sekali tak lebih
jiwa ini takluk
dengan kelembutan dan penyerahan paripurna

Y cuando ese milagro realiza
El prodigio de amarse
Hay campanas de fiesta
Que cantan en el corazón

You

by Basil Valdez



You give me hope,
The strength, the will to keep on;
No one else can make me feel this way
And only you
Can bring out all the best I can do;
I believe you turn the tide
And make me feel real good inside.

You pushed me up
When I'm about to give up;
You're on my side when no one seems to listen
And if you go,
You know the tears can't help but show
You'll break this heart and tear it apart;
Then suddenly the madness starts

CHORUS:
It's your smile,
Your face, your lips that I miss,
Those sweet little eyes that stare at me
And make me say,
I'm with you through all the way.
'Cause it's you
Who fills the emptiness in me;
It changes ev'rything, you see,
When I know I've got you with me

You pushed me up
When I'm about to give up;
You're on my side when no one seems to listen
And if you go,
You know the tears can't help but show
You'll break this heart and tear it apart;
Then suddenly the madness starts

Overjoyed

by Stevie Wonder



Over time, I've been building my castle of love
Just for two, though you never knew you were my reason
I've gone much too far for you now to say
That I've got to throw my castle away

Over dreams, I have picked out a perfect come true
Though you never knew it was of you I've been dreaming
The sandman has come from too far away
For you to say come back some other day

And though you don't believe that they do
They do come true
For did my dreams
Come true when I looked at you
And maybe too, if you would believe
You too might be
Overjoyed, over loved, over me

Over hearts, I have painfully turned every stone
Just to find, I had found what I've searched to discover
I've come much too far for me now to find
The love that I've sought can never be mine

And though you don't believe that they do
They do come true
For did my dreams
Come true when I looked at you
And maybe too, if you would believe
You too might be
Overjoyed, over loved, over me

And though the odds say improbable
What do they know
For in romance
All true love needs is a chance
And maybe with a chance you will find
You too like I
Overjoyed, over loved, over you, over you

Hari sabtu sore kemaren ngedenger lagu ini lagi di acara "American Idol". Wah jadi keinget-inget lagi deh ... Ini lagu banyak banget kenangannya. Pertama gw pikir gw nggak punya theme song, ternyata setelah ngedenger lagu ini dan merhatiin lagunya: this is it.

Just the Way You Are

by Billy Joel



Don't go changing, to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore

I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are

Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are.

I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
What will it take till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you.

I said I love you and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart
I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are.

Desafinado (Out Of Tune)

by Antonio CARLOS JOBIM

Love is like a never ending melody
Poets have compared it to a symphony
A symphony conducted by the lighting of the moon
But our song of love is slightly out of tune

Once your kisses raised me to a fever pitch
Now the orchestration doesn't seem so rich
Seems to me you've changed the way we used to sing
Like the bossanova love should swing

We used to harmonize, two souls in perfect time
Now the song is different and the words don't even rhyme
Cause you forgot the melody, my heart would always croon
So what's the good of love that's slightly out of tune

Tune your heart to mine the way it used to be
Join with me in harmony and sing the song of loving
We're bound to get in tune again before too long
There'll be no more desafinado, when your heart belongs to me completely
We won't be slightly out of tune, you'll sing along with me

A Felicidade

by Tom Jobim & Vinicius de Moraes

Tristeza não tem fim / Felicidade sim
Tristeza não tem fim / Felicidade sim

Sadness does not have end, Happiness does

A felicidade é como a pluma que o vento vai levando pelo ar
Voa tão leve mas tem a vida breve
Precisa que haja vento sem parar

The happiness is like a feather that the wind blows up to the sky / It flies so
lightly but it has a brief life / It needs wind that never stops blowing

A felicidade do pobre parece/ A grande ilusão do carnaval
A gente trabalha o ano inteiro
Por um momento de sonho pra fazer
A fantasia de rei ou de pirata ou jardineira
Pra tudo se acabar na quarta feira

The happiness of the poor looks like the great illusion of the carnival / People who
work the whole year / For a moment of dream make / a fantasy of a king or a pirate or a gardener / then everything is
finished in the fourth fair

A felicidade é como a gota de orvalho numa pétala de flor
Brilha tranquila / Depois de leve oscila
E cai com uma lágrima de amor

The happiness is as the dewdrop on a flower's petal / shining and tranquile, after the
dawn it oscillates / then falls like a teardrop of love

A minha felicidade está sonhando
Nos olhos da minha namorada
É como esta noite passando, passando
Em busca da madrugada / Falem baixo, por favor
Pra que ela acorde alegre como o dia
Oferecendo beijos de amor

My happiness is dreaming in the eyes of my loved one / It is like this night passing,
passing / In search of the dawn / Speak softly, please / So that it would wake up happy like the day / Offering kisses of love

Pertama ngedenger mp3-nya (Album Bossanova FINO), jadul but sweet. Terus nyari midi-nya. Terus nyari liriknya. Udah lumayan bisa ngemaininnya di kibor (pake style Fast Bossa + voice Piccolo). Bisa dibilang chord progressionnya enak nggak terlalu ribet dan khas bossanova brasil, jadi memang cepet dikuasai. *deeeuuh!* Tapi pas bagian de rei ou de pirata ou de jardineira masih rada ngaco. Abisnya naik turunnya kelewat cihui. *Tom Jobim memang paling jago urusan lagu yang miring-miring kayak gini (melodinya!)*
Sampe sekarang belum tahu juga artinya apaan nih lagu. Ngebaca liriknya aja mesti monyong-monyong dan sengau nggak jelas. Mau niru ngomong portugis cuma lidah gue kebanyakan kena urap. Tapi berhubung yang ngedenger gue nyanyi juga nggak ngerti, kayaknya gue kedenger fasih banget. *huik huik!*

Lullaby of Birdland

Lullaby of Birdland, that's what I
always hear when you sigh.
Never in my wordland
could there be ways to reveal
in a phrase how I feel.

Have you ever heard two turtle doves
bill and coo when they love?
That's the kind of magic
music we make with our lips
when we kiss.

And there's a weepy old willow,
he really knows how to cry.
That's how I'd cry in my pillow
if you should tell me farewell and goodbye.

Lullaby of Birdland whisper low,
kiss me sweet and we'll go
flyin' high in Birdland,
high in the sky up above
all because we're in love.

Pertama kali ngedenger lagu ini live bulan Agustus lalu. Di depan Rich&Famous. Jam 9 malem hari Sabtu. Acara konser Jazz Imel Stroberi n Band yang diadain sama anak UnPad. Ternyata gue di komputer udah ada midi-nya, tapi nggak ngeh. Jadi inget sama seseorang nih. Kapan ya kita bisa ketemu dan main kibor bareng lagi?

Cucak Rowo

by Didi Kempot

Coba-coba melempar manggis
Manggis kulempar mangga kudapat
Coba-coba melamar gadis
Gadis kulamar janda kudapat

Iki piye, iki piye, iki piye
Wong tuwo rabi perawan
P'rawane yen bengi nangis wae
Amargo wedi karo manu'e

Manu'e manu'e cucakrowo
Cucakrowo dowo buntute
Buntute sing akeh wulune
Yen digoyang, ser, ser, aduh pena'e

Ini dia lagu favoritnya ibu-ibu. Nggak tau tuh kenapa tapi sering banget ibu-ibu ngerikues lagu ini dengan gayanya yang cekikikan malu-malu gitu. Hari minggu kemaren aja gue disuruh ngemainin ini lagu sampe tiga kali ini. Kalo udah pada nyanyi, semangat betul. Terutama bagian ser-sernya itu. Kayaknya pada lupa sama anak dan cucunya masing-masing.
Gue sering ngeganti-ganti liriknya. Dan hasilnya: hilariously funny. Dengerin nih.

[versi iseng]
Coba-coba melamar manggis
Manggis kulamar mangga kudapat
Coba-coba melempar gadis
Gadis kulempar janda kudapat

[versi lebih jayus]
Coba-coba melamar manggis
Manggis kulamar janda kudapat
Coba-coba melempar gadis
Gadis kulempar mangga kudapat

...

[versi anak kecil yang salah denger]
Iki piye, iki piye, iki piye
Cucakrowo masih perawan
....

[versi orang dewasa yang nggak ngerti bahasa Jawa]
Manu'e manu'e cucakrowo
Cucakrowo dowo wulune
Prawane sing akeh buntute --> hik hiks
Yen digoyang, ser, ser, aduh pena'e

Iki piye, iki piye, iki piye
Cucakrowo dowo buntute
Prawane sing akeh wulune --> syerem bener
Yen digoyang, ser, ser, aduh pena'e

Iki piye, iki piye, iki piye
Wong tuwo rabi prawan
Prawane sing akeh manu'e --> birds collector
Yen digoyang, ser, ser, aduh pena'e

Ini dia akibatnya kalo liburan nggak mudik. Nggak kerjaan di rumah, malah ngancur-ngancurin lagu yang udah ancur.
