MomBita´s Radiohead Top 10 (3/3)

3. Exit Music (For a Film) – Ok Computer (1997)

Creada para los créditos finales de la película Romeo+Juliet super dramática...la rola perfecta para suicidarse! En el concierto de Marzo 2009 un EPIC FAIL , después de intentarla tocar dos veces abortaron la misión

Exit Music (For A Film)

Wake from your sleep,
the drying of your tears,
Today we escape, we escape.

Pack and get dressed
before your father hears us,
before all hell breaks loose.

Breathe, keep breathing,
don't lose your nerve.
Breathe, keep breathing,
I can't do this alone.

Sing us a song,
a song to keep us warm,
there's such a chill, such a chill.

And you can laugh a spineless laugh,
we hope your rules and wisdom choke you.

And now we are one
in everlasting peace,

we hope that you choke, that you choke,
we hope that you choke, that you choke,
we hope that you choke, that you choke.

2. Fake Plastic Trees – The Bends (1995) / La rola más tocada de Radiohead dedicada al consumismo y la mercadotecnia masiva… Mi falso amor plástico

Fake Plastic Trees

A green plastic watering can
For a fake chinese rubber plant
In the fake plastic earth

That she bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plans
To get rid of itself

It wears her out, it wears her out
It wears her out, it wears her out

She lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns

He used to do surgery
On girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins

And it wears him out, it wears him out
It wears him out, it wears him out

She looks like the real thing
She tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love

But I can't help the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
If I just turn and run

And it wears me out, it wears me out
It wears me out, it wears me out

And if I could be who you wanted
If I could be who you wanted
All the time, all the time

1. House of Cards – In Rainbows (2007)

I don't want to be your friend, I just want to be your lover, no matter how it ends, no matter how it starts… creo q tiene mucho de proyección + la tranquilidad de la melodía la hacen mi favorita. Sexy-sexosa sin tocar nunca los límites de la vulgaridad

El video premiado:

House of Cards

I don't want to be your friend
I just want to be your lover
No matter how it ends
No matter how it starts

Forget about your house of cards
And I'll do mine
Forget about your house of cards
And I'll do mine

Fall off the table,
Get swept under
Denial, denial

The infrastructure will collapse
Voltage spikes
Throw your keys in the bowl
Kiss your husband goodnight

Forget about your house of cards
And I'll do mine
Forget about your house of cards
And I'll do mine

Fall off the table,
And get swept under

Denial, denial
Denial, denial
Your ears should be burning
Denial, denial
Your ears should be burning
Denial, denial

Mombi´s Radiohead Top 10 (2/3)

6. Climbing up the walls – Ok Computer (1997)

Thom se basó en un hospital mental para crearla, quizá mi fascinación por ese tipo de lugares (desde siempre) me ha llevado a que esté en u buen lugar y además la idea de alguien omnipresente trepando las paredes es un poco aterradora, claro, si no eres tu quién las trepa

Climbing up the Walls

I am the key to the lock in your house
That keeps your toys in the basement
And if you get too far inside
You'll only see my reflection

It's always best when the light is off
I am the pick in the ice
Do not cry out or hit the alarm
You know we're friends till we die

And either way you turn
I'll be there
Open up your skull
I'll be there
Climbing up the walls

It's always best when the light is off
It's always better on the outside
Fifteen blows to the back of your head
Fifteen blows to your mind

So lock the kids up safe tonight
Put the eyes in the cupboard
I've got the smell of a local man
Who's got the loneliest feeling

That either way he turns
I'll be there
Open up your skull
I'll be there

Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls

5. True Love Waits – I Might Be Wrong (2001)

La canción borderline por excelencia (chiste de psicólogos) Por favor no me abandones!! + Thom en las vocales = una canción EMO perfecta, claro, sin los gritos mal hechos de los grupos de ese estilo. La idea básica: Te esperaré hasta que el mundo deje de girar x que te amo, suena raro, no?

El amor verdadero espera en los áticos encantados y vive de paletas dulces y cereal

True Love Waits

I'll drown my beliefs
To have you be in peace
I'll dress like your niece
To wash your swollen feet

Just don't leave
Don't leave

I'm not living
I'm just killing time
Your tiny hands
Your crazy kitten smile

Just don't leave
Don't leave

And true love waits
In haunted attics
And true love lives
On lollipops and crisps

Just don't leave
Don't leave

Just don't leave
Don't leave

4. All I Need – In Rainbows (2007)

Otra rola parecida a la anterior… tu eres todo lo que necesito; empiezo a creer que Thom Yorke padece de un severo temor al abandono XD

Soy todos los días que elegiste ignorar, encontrada una mejor versión (si aún mejor) que la original:

All I Need

I'm the next act
waiting in the wings
I'm an animal
Trapped in your hot car
I am all the days
that you choose to ignore

You are all I need
You are all I need
I'm in the middle of your picture
Lying in the reeds

I am a moth
who just wants to share your light
I'm just an insect
trying to get out of the night

I only stick with you
because there are no others

You are all I need
You are all I need
I'm in the middle of your picture
Lying in the reeds

It's all wrong
It's all right
It's all wrong

MomBita´s Radiohead Top 10

Pues el otro día andaba por twitter y @omr11 me propuso: x q no hacer una top 10 de Radiohead?

Después de meditar la complicancia (sic) de escoger sólo las 10 canciones favoritas acepté poniéndole fecha para el sábado 6 de febrero a la entrega.. fue tan complicado q no terminé hasta hoy, aún así quedaron fuera muchas canciones que me gustan y sí, revisé toda la discografía incluyendo lados B y EPs (#yoconfieso q soy una freaky de Radiohead)... pues a revisarlo.

Postearé el Top en 3 partes del 10-7, luego del 6-4 y claro al final las 3 favoritas!

Empezando con las primeras 4:

10. You - Pablo Honey (1993)

Raro, pero cierto, una del disco menos mejor de Radiohead incluida en mi top 10, es mas, en cualquier top 10... salvo Creep las demas canciones pasaron sin pena ni gloria. Esta rola viene en el Drill E.P. para el Pablo Honey y (sobre todo en vivo) muestra la increíble maravillosa y melodiosa voz de Thom Yorke y el sonido de las clasicas 3 guitarras britanicas/ En vivo es mejor…

You
You are the sun and moon and stars, are you
And I could never run away from you
You try at working out chaotic things
And why should I believe myself, not you?
You say the world is going to end so soon And why should I believe myself?
Hey, the sun and moon and stars are
Yeah, but I won't share myself with you, you To, me, ooh...

9. Fog - Com Lag Japanesse Limited Edition

Tocada por primera vez en Israel en el 2000. Personalmente me gusta por el sonido del piano que con mis muy avanzados conocimientos musicales me parece magico.

Fog

There's a little child
Running round this house
And he never leaves
He will never leave
And the fog comes up from the sewers
And glows in the dark

Baby alligators in the sewers grow up fast
Grow up fast
Anything you want it can be done
How did you go bad?
Did you go bad?
Did you go bad?
Somethings will never wash away
Did you go bad?
Did you go bad?

8) Nice Dream - The Bends (1995)

Toda fantasía feliz no es mas que un lindo suenio…

Nice Dream

They love me like I was a brother
They protect me, listen to me
They dug me my very own garden
Gave me sunshine, made me happy

Nice dream, nice dream
Nice dream

I call up my friend, the good angel
But she's out with her answerphone
She says she would love to come help but
The sea would electrocute us all

Nice dream, nice dream
Nice dream, nice dream
Nice dream, nice dream
Nice dream

If you think that you're strong enough
If you think you belong enough
If you think that you're strong enough
If you think you belong enough

[Just as well Just as well Just as well]

Nice dream, nice dream
Nice dream, nice dream

7) Black Star – The Bends (1995)

Desde el punto de vista de Thom (Yorke, obvio) es una rola q habla de una relacion casi terminada colgada de una ondita meramente sexual; para ser sincera no le encuentro lo sexoso por ningun lado y mas bien me parece una rola evitativa; q al final es algo q todos hemos hecho.

Olvidada por un buen rato en los playlists revivio en un recuerdo.

Todo es culpa de la estrella negra!! …Y aun hago un esfuerzo por no desmayarme cuando veo una cara como la tuya

Black Star

i get home from work and you're still standing in your dressing gown
well what am i to do?
i know all the things around your head and what they do to you.
what are we coming to?
what are we gonna do?

blame it on the black star
blame it on the falling sky
blame it on the satellite that beams me home.

the troubled words of a troubled mind i try to understand what is eating you.
i try to stay awake but its 58hours since that i last slept with you.
what are we coming to?
i just don't know anymore.

i get on the train and i just stand about now that i don't think of you.
i keep falling over i keep passing out when i see a face like you.
what am i coming to?
i'm gonna melt down
