Esta fue la primera canción de exocet….

Sampleos de “My favourite things”(Rodgers-Hammerstein) en la versión de John Coltrane y de alguno de los cuartetos de cuerdas de Béla Bartok.
(Creo que éste es un poema de E. E. Cummings pero no estoy seguro, en todo caso no es mío.)

Negros
Contra blanco cielo
Árboles de los cuales cae
Una hoja
Dando vueltas

Huele a tierra mojada, huele a tierra…*
Dando vueltas.

*esta frase sí se la añadí yo.

2 passenger

exocet — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 17:31:01 +0000

A cada paso estaré acechando
oculto en el fondo de tu espalda
robaré lo que tu vayas creando.

Soy tu polizón.
A bordo desde que me dejaste entrar.
No necesito vivir pa´ contar
Que te como y te voy a matar.

Cho:
I’m your passenger,
You feed me with your dreams.
I’m your parasite,
I watch you while you sleep.

Implacable depredador,
No me vas a encontrar.
Compartimos tu cuerpo y tu pan,
Terminarás por entregarme tu amor.

3 light blue

Mighty breathing inside.
heart is flooding: high tide.
Spinning planet downspine
Loving the human form divine.

Tyger, tyger burning bright.
Body melt, frozen time.
Nothing wrong, nothing right
Angel kiss you blew my mind.

Cho:
Light blue colour makes me smile
It kinda makes everything look nice.
I don’t know, I don’t know why keeps changing.
Teardrop hollow joyful eyes,
Little boy staring at empty skies.
I don’t know, I don’t know why it’s changing.

Hats back on heads,
His lips on hers,
Try not to talk,
Think as you walk.

4 miocardio

instrumental.
El loop de percusiones lo sampleé del disco Discipline de King Crimson.

5 Miedo chinois (why?)

exocet — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 17:28:34 +0000

Aquí usé un sampleo de alguno de los cuartetos de cuerdas de Heitor Villa Lobos.

Frightened
Of all the things that they may say about me.
Holding on
To all the dreams I’ve had, they might be broken.

As I try to remember my name,
The smile on your face
Or the day it is today,
The wind keeps on blowing my flame
But the place is restricted
For the ones who can pay?

Cho:
Why I’m I scared?
I’m only looking for a place,
A place with a silence.
Why is my breath
Gone without my words to find out,
Is there somebody like me?

6 Give thanx and praises

Bob Marley, confrontation

7 opportunity

exocet — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 17:26:26 +0000

An opportunity you don’t want to miss…

8 Strange

exocet — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 17:25:39 +0000

El sampleo de contrabajo es de alguno de los Filmworks de John Zorn.

Strange
Is the light that I see.
Strange
Is the sand beneath my feet.
Strange
Is the life that I lead.
Strange
Is the music that I hear.

Strange is the world,
Is the world strange indeed.
Strange is the world,
Is the world so strange indeed.

Will we ever be together?
Will we ever find our way to the light?

Strange
Like the sparks in the rain.
Strange
Are the feelings that I feel.
Strange
Is the smell of my sweat.
Strange
Are the dreams that I dream.

9 this reality

exocet — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 17:24:49 +0000

Aquí hay un sampleo del disco Gone to Earth de David Sylvian.

I struggled with the bees
In fields of cold glass winter.
I stood by the lake
Watching my reflection as I fly.

I’ve lost many planes,
Also crashed one or two,
Looking through strange windows
And waking up in tears.

Cho:
This reality
Is not what it seems to be.
This reality…
Is it really my voice I hear?
In these dreams
I’ve always been closer to me
Than any other place I’ve been.

I died more than once
Probably by my own hand.
I killed with a joy
Only a lunatic could feel.
I talked to angels,
Been on trial more than once.
But I haven’t yet discovered
What behind these dreams hide.

10 U hold

exocet — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 17:23:42 +0000

You hold my heart
your truth is my truth.
We walk the walk
In the very same shoes.

You hold my hand
When paths are frightening.
Don’t mind my mind,
Would you be so kind?

Cho:
I’m in love with your moment,
I hold my breath, I hear your dreams.
And I drown in your laughter,
I swim naked in your tears.

You hold the light,
Your time is our time,
You place the night
For stars to whisper.

You hold the sky,
The sky where I drive.
And I feel the strike
Of eternity in your touch.
