13 песен о любви и про любовь

[teamawakers]

Много есть прекрасных песен о любви и все такое. Не знаю, каким образом я выбрала именно эти, которыми хочу поделиться.

Average B-Side - Robbie Williams
"В этой безумной головокружительной гонке
Мы были всего лишь средненьким трэком".
Давнишняя песня от товарища Робби, которая даже на альбоме не выходила, только на бисайде. Грустная метафора про так себе отношения, которые может, и не плохие даже, а просто никакие как средненький трэк.



You say you're sick and tired
Of feeling sick and tired
I walked and told the truth
Do you wish I'd stayed alive

Cause she said that you said that I said
She said that I said the love's dead
And I tried to explain
Don't expect you to be the same

On this rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average b-side
We were just an average b-side

I watched the past run by on the silver screen
We played our parts and died, scene by scene
When she said that you said that I said
She said that I said the love's dead
And I try to explain
Don't expect you to feel the same

On this rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average b-side, oh b-side

Pretend you like me
Pretend I like you
Pretend pretend pretend
This is not happening

Oh rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride (this is not happening)
We were just an average b-side (this is not happening)
Oh rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average b-side
We were just an average b-side
We were just an average b-side


Bad Days - Space
"Как хорошо, что ты сильнее Супермена,
А когда надо, превращаешься в Шерлока Холмса и всех спасаешь."
Пожалуй, это моя любимая любовная песня - гиковая) Очень давно она у меня в закромах, с тех самых пор, когда я нашла Того Самого Особенного человека, который теперь приходится мне мужем. What more could I ask for?



Why do bad days last forever and ever?
And why do they happen to such sweethearts like us?
It's lucky for me you're stronger than Superman
And when I need you most, you turn into Sherlock Holmes
And save the day, save the day, save the day, save the day.
Who needs Batman, Jason and the Argonauts?
I've got you, what more could I ask for?
When I'm feeling lost and outnumbered by a hundred to one
And my nerves have gone
And all I want to do is run for cover
You appeared from nowhere like the genie with the magic lamp,
My three wishes all in one.
Take me on your magic carpet
And save the day, save the day, save the day, save the day.
Who needs a magic wand, a pair of ruby slippers?
I've got you, what more could I ask for?
Why do bad days last forever and ever?
And why do they happen to such sweethearts like us?
It's lucky for me you're stronger than Superman
And when I need you most, you turn into Sherlock Holmes
And save the day, save the day, save the day, save the day.
Who needs a silver bullet, garlic and a holy cross?
I've got you, what more could I ask for?


Cornerstone - Arctic Monkeys
"Я долго ехал домой,
На ремне безопасности остался твой запах,
И я решил не срезать путь".
Вообще, я не часто плачу над любовными песнями... Причем без применения на собственный опыт, допустим. Это я глубоко сопереживаю герою песни, который что-то сильно где-то потерял, а теперь пытается снова найти, боится забыть... Или хотя бы притвориться, что нашел, чтобы не было так горько. Может, я брежу, но мне кажется что-то глубоко искреннее и личное есть в этой песни.



Why Thought I saw you in the battleship
but it was only a look a like
She was nothing but a vision trick
Under the warning light
She was close, close enough to be your ghost
But my chances turned to toast
When I asked her if I could call her your name

I thought I saw you in the rusty hook
Huddled up in wicker chair
I wandered up for a closer look
And kissed who ever was sitting there

She was close, and she held me very tightly
Till I asked awfully politely, please
Can I call you her name

And I elongated my lift home,
Yeah I let him go the long way round
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
And kept my shortcuts to myself

I thought I saw you in the parrots beak
Messing with the smoke alarm
It was too loud for me to hear her speak
And she had a broken arm

It was close, so close that the walls were wet
And she wrote it out in letraset
No you can't call me her name

Tell me where's your hiding place
I'm worried I'll forget your face
And I've asked everyone
And I'm beginning to think I imagined you all along

I elongated my lift home
Yeah I let him go the long way round
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
And kept my shortcuts to myself

I saw your sister in the cornerstone
On the phone to the middleman
When I saw that she was on her own
I thought she might understand
She was close, well you couldn't get much closer
She said I'm really not supposed to but yes,
You can call me anything you want


Glass In The Park - Alex Turner
Ты говоришь "Как можно оставить тебя на потом - ты самое срочное из дел?
Мне нужно сделать миллион вещей, но они второстепенны".
И еще одно "про лубоффь" от того же автора, на это раз нечто совершенно нежное, осеннее и красивое, а так же звучало в фильме "Субмарина", про который я так ничего и не рассказала, но если в двух словах, то...



There's glass in the park
Darling, I can't help but keep making appointments
To sweep beneath the climbing frame

If the sun's in your eyes,
I'll tighten your blindfold, baby
Don't worry your foot won't get cut
Strut carelessly

And when you say that you need me tonight
I can't keep my feelings in disguise
The white parts of my eyeballs illuminate

And I'll wait for you
As if I'm waiting for a stone to stop
I've heard them talking
About how I'm gonna put you off

There's glass in the park
And now that I'm up off my knees
I've picked up the speed
To jump your palaces

And I shoot through the night
And suddenly all those once lost concoctions froth
And chase the day away

When you say that you need me tonight
I can't keep my feelings in disguise
The white part of my eyeballs illuminate

And I'll wait for you
As if I'm waiting for the stone to stop
I've heard them talking
About how I'm gonna put you off

You tell me, "how can I put you off when you're a matter of urgency?"
I've got a million things that I need to do, but they're all secondary
Make sure you're not followed
Meet me by the Death Balloon
Paraselene woman, I'm your man on the moon
And like a grain of diamond dust, you float
And my devotion's outer crust' cracks



The Greatest Show On Earth - The Feeling
"Давай влюбимся, говорят, это самое крутое шоу в мире".
Эпическое название. Пожалуй, недооцененная песня. Просто красивая.



I don't wanna stay anymore
I'm getting out that's for sure
But how could I leave here alone
Honey won't you please come along

Let's get out of here
I got no credit on my telephone
I got no money in my jeans but come on

Lets go
Everyone says it's so cool
Who knows?
Could be us
At the greatest show on Earth
I'm told
We're gonna get high and I want to
Lets go
Fall in love
It's the greatest show on Earth
It's the greatest show on Earth

So take what you need and nothing more
We've got alot to explore
The fear of the world kept us in
Safe from the dirt and the sin
And yes I'm terrified
Cos when your out you know there's no return
But I love you and they're gonna learn

Lets go
Everyone says it's so cool

Who knows?
Could be us
At the greatest show on Earth
I'm told
We're gonna get high and I want to
Lets go
Fall in love
It's the greatest show on Earth
It's the greatest show on Earth
Yeah, yeah

I don't wanna be in this house no more
Gotta get out they're boring the hell out of me
I don't wanna be in this house no more
I gotta get out of here, before it kills me
It's gonna kill me
So come on

Lets go
Everyone says it's so cool
Who knows?
Could be us
At the greatest show on Earth
I'm told
I'm gonna get high and I want to
Lets go
Fall in love
It's the greatest show on Earth
It's the greatest show on Earth
Yeah, yeah


Insane - Damien Rice
"Ненавижу, когда ты говоришь, что я никогда не борюсь за тебя".
У Дамьена Райса много всего красивого меланхоличного и про любовь. Нежно люблю его Blowers Daughter, но по некоторым причинам рука не поднялась занести ее в список. Поэтому вашему вниманию песня про не очень счастливую любовь, скорее всего даже одностороннюю.




Should I speak?
Should I bother shaking hands?
Am I weak If I leave it as it stands?
I've submerged
And I've surfaced with the blame
I guess I'm no good, I guess I'm insane

Should I go, if she calls out my name?
And if she bleeds, should I wipe up the stain?
And if I'm low, can I drown in this rain?
I guess I'm no good, I guess I'm insane

And I hate when you say
That I never fight for you
Sometimes you breathe
All over my scar
And you always end up
Closer than close
That's where I give in

Should I confess
The actions of a hand
In my mind
I'll betray you once again
Why should I climb?
What is there to gain?
This is no good
This is insane

And I hate when you say
That I never fight for you
Sometimes you breathe
All over my scar
And you always end up
Closer than close
That's whenre I give in

You're taking, you're taking
You're taking me down
You're taking, you're taking
You're taking me down
And you always end up
Closer than close
That's where I give in


Mardy Bum - Arctic Monkeys
"Ты хмуришься, и я будто смотрю в дуло пистолета".
И снова "Мартышки". Люблю эту песню за ее простоту и почти бытовушность. Ну да, ссорятся люди иногда, глядят друг на друга хмурыми взглядами - без всяких трагедий. Мне честно эта песня помогает иногда перестать хмуриться, вспомнить эти мифические "обнимашки на кухне", потому что у всех они бывают, чего уж там... Лучше чаще о них вспоминать, а не тратить время на взаимохмурение)



Well now then Mardy Bum
I've seen your frown
And it's like looking down the barrel of a gun
And it goes off
And out come all these words
Oh there's a very pleasant side to you
A side I much prefer
It's one that laughs and jokes around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was all up, up and away
Oh, but it's right hard to remember, yeah
On a day like today when you're all argumentative
And you've got the face on

Well now then Mardy Bum
Oh I'm in trouble again, aren't I
I thought as much
Cause you turned over there
Pulling that silent disappointment face
The one that I can't bear

Why can't we just laugh and joke around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's rate hard to remember,yeah
On a day like today when you're all argumentative
And you've got the face on

And yeah I'm sorry I was late
but I missed the train
And then the traffic was a state
And I can't be arsed to carry on in this debate
That reoccurs, oh when you say I don't care
but of course I do, yet I clearly do,yeah!

So laugh and joke around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's rate hard to remember,yeah
On a day like today when you're all argumentative
And you've got the face on


Sparks - Coldplay
"И я увидел искры..."
С этой песней мы тоже давно дружим. Не знаю, про какие именно искры там поется, но всякие бывают... У нас вот было много искр с самого начала. Все дело в искрах, да...



Did I drive you away?
I know what you'll say.
You'll say, "Oh, sing one we know"
But I promise you this,
I'll always look out for you.
That's what I'll do.

Singing...
Singing...

My heart is yours.
It's you that I hold on to.
That's what I'll do.
But I know I was wrong,
And I won't let you down.
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah I will, yes I will…)

Singing...
Crying...

Yeah I saw sparks,
Yeah I saw sparks,
And I saw sparks,
Yeah I saw sparks,
Singing out.

La, la, la, la, oh…
La, la, la, la, oh…
La, la, la, la, oh…
La, la, la, la, oh…


Starlight - Muse
"Ты электризуешь мою жизнь". (уж больно слово хорошее)
Что тут скажешь? Песня любви и радости!


Far away
This ship has taken me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die
Starlight
I will be chasing a starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if it's worth it anymore

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold you in my arms

My life
You electrify my life
Let's conspire to ignite
All the souls that would die just to feel alive

I'll never let you go
If you promise not to fade away
Never fade away

Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold you in my arms

Far away
This ship has taken me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die

I'll never let you go
If you promise not to fade away
Never fade away

Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold


When I Go - Slow Club
"Еще столько уроков, которые я никогда не выучу,
Столько вопросов меня терзают,
Как например, будешь ли ты держать меня за руку до конца?"
Честно говоря, эта песня у меня прочно связана воспоминаниями с воображаемым пэйрингом из ориджа. А теперь еще, наверное, будет мне напоминать про Ксандера и Уиллоу, потому что там, наверное, больше про дружбу.



If we're both not married by twenty-two
Could I be so bold and ask you?
If we're both not married by twenty-three
Will you make my year, and ask me?

If we're both not married by twenty-four
Will you pass me those knee pads and I'll get on the floor
If we're both not married by twenty-five
I hope that there's some childish spark still alive

Cos there are so many lessons
That I just never get to learn
And there are so many questions that still burn, like

Will you hold my hand when I go?
Will you hold my hand when I go?
Will you hold my hand when I go?
Will you hold my hand when I go?

If I get to thirty and I don't have a wife
I'll ask you nicely but I won't ask twice
If I get to forty and I don't have a spouse
I'll fashion you a letter and I'll send it to your house

If I get to sixty will you let me slip away
Into an armchair for the rest of my days
Cos you've got your family and I've got mine
The love that we share is for another time

Cos there are so many lessons
That I just never get to learn
And there are so many questions that still burn, like

Will you hold my hand when I go?
Will you hold my hand when I go?
Will you hold my hand when I go?
Will you hold my hand when I go?


Without You I'm Nothing - Placebo
"Каждый раз, когда ты срываешь на мне злобу,
Я теряю дар речи
Ты медленно ускользаешь от меня,
Растишь меня, как неувядаемый цветок,
Никогда не видишь мое одиночество..."
У Placebo тоже много прекрасного о любви, пожалуй. Но вот это - абсолют. Грустная и совершенная. Любовь - не только за ручки держаться (с).



Strange infatuation seems to grace the evening tide.
I'll take it by your side.
Such imagination seems to help the feeling slide.
I'll take it by your side.
Instant correlation sucks and breeds a pack of lies.
I'll take it by your side.
Oversaturation curls the skin and tans the hide.
I'll take it by your side.

tick - tock [x3]
tick - tick - tick - tick - tick - tock

I'm unclean, a libertine
And every time you vent your spleen,
I seem to lose the power of speech,
Your slipping slowly from my reach.
You grow me like an evergreen,
You never see the lonely me at all

I...
Take the plan, spin it sideways.
I...
Fall.
Without you, I'm Nothing.
Without you, I'm nothing.
Without you, I'm nothing.
Take the plan, spin it sideways.
Without you, I'm nothing at all.


Wonderwall - Ryan Adams
"Может быть, ты будешь тем,
кто спасет меня?"
Так уж сталось, что еще одну совершенную песню о любви написали хулюганы Oasis, а перепел еe Ryan Adams. И снова о спасении... Наверняка, я писала о ней еще давным-давно в этом самом дневнике, когда еще не было ни тегов, ни возможности загружить песни на ПростоПлеер. Уже тогда я знала, что если найдется человек, которому я смогу посвятить эту песню - я останусь с ним навсегда)



Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now

Backbeat the word was on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels
The way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk along are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
I don't know how

Because maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after all
You're my wonderwall

Today was gonna be the day?
But they'll never throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now

And all the roads that lead to you were winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
I don't know how

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after all
You're my wonderwall

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after an
You're my wonderwall

Said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me

Zorbing - Stornoway
Ну, и под конец алфавита просто светлое доброе и хорошее.



Conkers shining on the ground
The air is cooler
And i feel like i just started uni
Walking backwards to my van
You're at your window
And I'm tripping every time i think of

Lying in your attic
I can feel the static
The storm has broken Heavens open

Send my body out to work
But leave my senses
In orbit over south east London
Wind the window down and pinch
Me on the shoulder
Whilst i'll be driving off to dream of

Lying in your attic
I can feel the static
The storm has broken Heavens open
So electrifying Oh I'm nearly flying
Lost my heart between the sheets of lightning

I've been singing you this song
Inside a bubble
Been Zorbing through the streets of Cowley
We were always meant to be
Zorbing together
And i think its high time we started

Lying in your attic
I can feel the static
The storm is breaking windows shaking
So electrifying Oh I'm nearly flying
Lost my heart between the sheets of lightning

Lying in your attic
I can feel the static
The storm has broken Heavens open
So electrifying Oh im nearly flying
Lost my heart between the sheets of lightning
