Mika – Life in Cartoon Motion (2007)

Recientemente me han pasado el primer disco de Mika, Life in Cartoon Motion, y ya se ha convertido en el disco de este verano. Teniendo siempre en cuenta que cada artista es único, Mika tiene ciertas influencias de Freddie Mercury (lo cual me encanta) y a veces tambien parece que estés escuchando una cancion de los Beatles Además de tener canciones alegres (oigase la conocida “Grace Kelly” o “Love Today”) tambien tiene canciones que te llegan a tocar la fibra, en mi caso: “My interpretation” y “Any other world”. Os pongo la letra de ambas canciones

MY INTERPRETATION

You talk about life, you talk about death,
And everything in between,
Like it’s nothing, and the words are easy.
You talk about me, and you talk about you,
And everything I do,
Like it’s something, that needs repeating.
I don’t need an alibi or for you to realize,
The things we left unsaid,
Are only taking space up in our head.
Make it my fault, win the game
Point the finger, place the blame
It does me up and down,
It doesn’t matter now.

[chorus:]
‘Cause I don’t care if I ever talk to you again.
This is not about emotion,
I don’t need a reason not to care what you say,
Or what happened in the end.
This is my interpretation,
And it don’t, don’t make sense.

The first two weeks turn into ten,
I hold my breath and wonder when it’ll happen,
Does it really matter?
If half of what you said is true,
And half of what I didn’t do could be different,
Would it make it better?
If we forget the things we know.
Would we have somewhere to go?
The only way is down, I can see that now.

[chorus:]
‘Cause I don’t care if I ever talk to you again.
This is not about emotion,
I don’t need a reason not to care what you say,
Or what happened in the end.
This is my interpretation,
And it don’t, don’t make sense.

It’s really not such a sacrifice

[chorus:]
‘Cause I don’t care if I ever talk to you again.
This is not about emotion,
I don’t need a reason not to care what you say,
Or what happened in the end.
This is my interpretation,
And it don’t, don’t make sense.

And it don’t have to make no sense to you at all,
‘Cause this is my interpretation, yeah, yeah, yeah.

ANY OTHER WORLD

In any other world
You could tell the difference
And let it all unfurl
Into broken remnants
Smile like you mean it
And let yourself let go

Cause it’s all in the hands of a bitter, bitter man
Say goodbye
To the world you thought you lived in
Take a bow
Play the part of a lonely, lonely heart
Say goodbye
To the world you thought you lived in
To the world you thought you lived in

I tried to live alone
But lonely is so lonely you know
So human as I am, I had to give up my defences
So I smiled and tried to mean it
To let myself let go

Cause it’s all in the hands of a bitter, bitter man
Say goodbye
To the world you thought you lived in
Take a bow
Play the part of a lonely, lonely heart
Say goodbye
To the world you thought you lived in
To the world you thought you lived in

Cause it’s all in the hands of a bitter, bitter man
Say goodbye
To the world you thought you lived in
Take a bow
Play the part of a lonely, lonely heart
Say goodbye
To the world you thought you lived in
To the world you thought you lived in

Say goodbye
To the world you thought you lived in
Say goodbye
To the world you thought you lived in
Say goodbye

In any other world
You could tell the difference

Siento no poder poner las canciones para que las oigais, os recomiendo que las consigais.

Las circunstancias “obligan” a que todos los dias mis compañeros y yo nos tomemos un momento para motivarnos escuchando “Relax, take it easy”, otra gran cancion.

Espero vuestras opiniones,
