12 Semanas de Música - 6/12

Minha música da 6ª semana é “Put your records on”, da Corinne Bailey Rae, escolhida porque amo o “balanço” do ritmo, a suavidade da voz e a simplicidade da mensagem. Nos últimos tempos, foi uma das músicas que mais “colou” na minha cabeça, sempre me trazendo uma sensação positiva e pra cima, e foi por um bom tempo o toque do meu celular.

É isso: nada como levar a vida com leveza e nada mais simples do que fazer aquilo que queremos, sem nos preocupar com os outros possam pensar de nós.

Put your records on
(Corinne Bailey Rae)

Three little birds, sat on my window

And they told me I don't need to worry

Summer came like cinnamon, so sweet

Little girls double-dutch on the concrete



Maybe sometimes, we've got it wrong, but it's alright

The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same

Oh, don't you hesitate



Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song

Just go ahead, let your hair down

Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams

Just go ahead, let your hair down

You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow



Blue as the sky, sunburnt and lonely

Sipping tea in the bar by the roadside

(just relax, just relax)

Don't you let those other boys fool you

Got to love that afro hair do



Maybe sometimes, we feel afraid, but it's alrigh

The more you stay the same, the more they seem to change

Don't you think it's strange?



Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song

Just go ahead, let your hair down

Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams

Just go ahead, let your hair down

You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow



There was more than I could take, pity for pity's sake

Some nights kept me awake, I thought that I was stronger

When you gonna realise, that you don't even have to try any longer?

Do what you want to



Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song

Just go ahead, let your hair down

Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams

Just go ahead, let your hair down

Oh, you're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow
