The Rolling Stones - Miss You

Una versión en directo (1978) de Miss You del LP Some Girls:


The Rolling Stones - MISS YOU ( LYRICS)

I've been holding out so long
I've been sleeping all alone
Lord, I miss you

I've been hanging on the phone
I've been sleeping all alone
I want to kiss you

Well, I've been haunted in my sleep
You've been starring in my dreams
Lord, I miss you

I've been waiting in the hall
Been waiting on your call
When the phone rings

It's just some friends of mine that say
"Hey, what's the matter man?
We're gonna come around at twelve
With some Puerto Rican girls that's just dyin' to meet you"

"We're gonna bring a case of wine
Hey, let's go mess and fool around
You know, like we used to"

Oh, everybody waits so long
Oh baby, why you wait so long?
Won't you come home, come home?

I've been walking Central Park
Singing after dark
People think I'm crazy

Stumbling on my feet
Shuffling through the street
Ask me people, "What's the matter with you boy?"

Sometimes I want to say to myself
Sometimes I say

I won't miss you child
I guess I'm lying to myself
It's just you and no one else
Lord, I won't keep you child

You've been blotting out my mind
Fooling on my time
No, I won't miss you, baby, yeah

Lord, I miss you child
Lord, I miss you child
Lord, I miss you child

The Jam - Going Underground (Live)

Este grupo británico de la New Wave siempre me ha encantado. Sin tener canciones tan conocidas como The Police, The Jam transmitía una gran energía en sus conciertos.





THE JAM - GOING UNDERGROUND (LYRICS)

Some people might say my life is in a rut,

But I'm quite happy with what I got

People might say that I should strive for more,

But I'm so happy I can't see the point.

Somethings happening here today
A show of strength with your boy's brigade and,
I'm so happy and you're so kind
You want more money - of course I don't mind
To buy nuclear textbooks for atomic crimes
And the public gets what the public wants
But I want nothing this society's got.


[Chorus]

I'm going underground, (going underground)

Well the brass bands play and feet start to pound

Going underground, (going underground)
Well let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow


Some people might get some pleasure out of hate

Me, I've enough already on my plate

People might need some tension to relax

[Me?] I'm too busy dodging between the flak
What you see is what you get
You've made your bed, you better lie in it
You choose your leaders and place your trust
As their lies wash you down and their promises rust
You'll see kidney machines replaced by rockets and guns
And the public wants what the public gets
But I don't get what this society wants


[Chorus]


We talk and talk until my head explodes

I turn on the news and my body froze

The braying sheep on my TV screen

Make this boy shout, make this boy scream!
Going underground, I'm going underground!

The Who - Quadrophenia

Para los seguidores de The Who, esta versión orquestal de la ópera rock Quadrophenia es una fusión muy interesante entre la música clásica y el grupo británico.

Está grabado con la Royal Philarmonic Orchesta, dirigida por Robert Ziegler. El papel de Tommy lo desempeña el tenor Alfie Boe.
