Billie Holiday - You Go To My Head
You go to my head
You go to my head,
And you linger like a haunting refrain
And I find you spinning round in my brain
Like the bubbles in a glass of champagne.
You go to my head
Like a sip of sparkling burgundy brew
And I find the very mention of you
Like the kicker in a julep or two.
The thrill of the thought
That you might give a thought
To my plea casts a spell over me
Still I say to myself: get a hold of yourself
Can't you see that it can never be?
You go to my head
With smile that makes my temperature rise
Like a summer with a thousand Julys
You intoxicate my soul with your eyes
Tho I'm certain that this heart of mine
Hasn't a ghost of a chance in this crazy romance,
You go to my head.

FEDERICO GARCIA LORCA
1898 El 5 de junio nace Federico García Lorca en Fuente Vaqueros, provincia de Granada, hijo de Federico García Rodríguez y Vicenta Lorca Romero. Será el mayor de cuatro hermanos: Francisco, Concha e Isabel.
Pasa unos meses en Almería, donde comienza sus estudios de bachillerato. Primeros estudios de música. Se traslada con su familia a vivir a Granada. Estudios de Filosofía y Letras y de Derecho en la Universidad de Granada. Amistad con el núcleo intelectual granadino (Melchor Fernández Almagro, Miguel Pizarro, Manuel Ángeles Ortiz, Ismael G. de la Serna, Angel Barrios,...). Viajes de estudios, dirigidos por el Catedrático Martín Domínguez Barrueta, por Andalucía, Castillla y Galicia. Inicia su amistad con el compositor Manuel de Falla, quien fija su residencia en Granada.
Publica en Granada su primer libro Impresiones y Paisajes y escribe algunos poemas que aparecerán más tarde en su primer libro de versos, Libro de Poemas.
Después viene toda una obra llena de Belleza......y España, y seguramente muchos españoles, nos sentimos orgullosos, de ver nacer en ésta tierra, a uno de los grandes poetas que da la Humanidad...... Hasta que ................y se volvió a repetir con un Bello Hijo que da Nuestro Planeta Tierra,, ...aquí, ....allí, ...en el pasado,..... en el presente,.....y ojalá acabe ya, en un futuro.
"... el hombre siempre mata, aquello que más ama..." (Querelle).
De las variadas etimologías sobre Andalucía, existe esta:
"Al-Andalus es una expresión que significa "El Paraíso" y así se emplea en la literatura y poesía árabe y árabe-hispánica. En tiempos de los árabes y mahometanos que fueron españoles
durante ocho siglos, se creía, por fuentes grecorromanas, que el Paraíso y el Jardín de las Hespérides se situaba al oeste.

LEONARD COHEN - Take This Waltz
Now in Vienna there's ten pretty women
There's a shoulder where Death comes to cry
There's a lobby with nine hundred windows
There's a tree where the doves go to die
There's a piece that was torn from the morning
And it hangs in the Gallery of Frost
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay
Take this waltz, take this waltz
Take this waltz with the clamp on its jaws
Oh I want you, I want you, I want you
On a chair with a dead magazine
In the cave at the tip of the lily
In some hallways where love's never been
On a bed where the moon has been sweating
In a cry filled with footsteps and sand
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay
Take this waltz, take this waltz
Take its broken waist in your hand
This waltz, this waltz, this waltz, this waltz
With its very own breath of brandy and Death
Dragging its tail in the sea
There's a concert hall in Vienna
Where your mouth had a thousand reviews
There's a bar where the boys have stopped talking
They've been sentenced to death by the blues
Ah, but who is it climbs to your picture
With a garland of freshly cut tears?
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay
Take this waltz, take this waltz
Take this waltz it's been dying for years
There's an attic where children are playing
Where I've got to lie down with you soon
In a dream of Hungarian lanterns
In the mist of some sweet afternoon
And I'll see what you've chained to your sorrow
All your sheep and your lilies of snow
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay
Take this waltz, take this waltz
With its "I'll never forget you, you know!"
This waltz, this waltz, this waltz, this waltz ...
And I'll dance with you in Vienna
I'll be wearing a river's disguise
The hyacinth wild on my shoulder,
My mouth on the dew of your thighs
And I'll bury my soul in a scrapbook,
With the photographs there, and the moss
And I'll yield to the flood of your beauty
My cheap violin and my cross
And you'll carry me down on your dancing
To the pools that you lift on your wrist
Oh my love, Oh my love
Take this waltz, take this waltz
It's yours now. It's all that there is
"Dance Me To The End of Love" Leonard Cohen
uploaded by littleiceage at youtube.com
Music video for Leonard Cohen's song "Dance Me To The End of Love" from his album "Various Positions.'
FINAL NOTE FROM THE MAN HIMSELF:
'Dance Me To The End Of Love' ... it's curious how songs begin because the origin of the song, every song, has a kind of grain or seed that somebody hands you or the world hands you and that's why the process is so mysterious about writing a song. But that came from just hearing or reading or knowing that in the death camps, beside the crematoria, in certain of the death camps, a string quartet was pressed into performance while this horror was going on, those were the people whose fate was this horror also. And they would be playing classical music while their fellow prisoners were being killed and burnt. So, that music, "Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin," meaning the beauty there of being the consummation of life, the end of this existence and of the passionate element in that consummation. But, it is the same language that we use for surrender to the beloved, so that the song -- it's not important that anybody knows the genesis of it, because if the language comes from that passionate resource, it will be able to embrace all passionate activity.

Ana Belén - 'Lía' (directo - 2001)
uploaded by cinefilo56 at youtube.com
Autor: José María Cano
Gira: 'Dos en la carretera' junto a Víctor Manuel
Presentación de sus discos 'Peces de ciudad' y 'El hijo del ferroviario', respectivamente.

Emblemático bolero, uno de los grandes clásicos de la trayectoria musical en solitario de Ana Belén. Compuesta por José María Cano (integrante junto a Nacho Cano y Ana Torroja, del grupo musical Mecano), esta canción fue el segundo single de su disco 'Rosa de amor y fuego' (1989) y es uno de los temas más bellos que ha podido interpretar.
Versionada también por diversos artistas como María Dolores Pradera, Julio Iglesias o Chenoa, ésta es en mi opinión, la canción romántica más importante de su carrera discográfica, y considero que debe estar incluida entre los mejores boleros de la música hispana, porque aborda el amor de forma fría y entregada al mismo tiempo, sin caer para nada en el sentimentalismo fácil y barato, con excepcional sensibilidad y una mágica originalidad, muy propia y característica de su autor.
En todas sus versiones, esencialmente similares, Ana Belén aporta múltiples matices a la letra, entre ellos dulzura, sensualidad, erotismo, misterio y calidez. En el vídeo, como siempre, tremendamente atractiva y más espectacular que nunca.
Personalmente, todas me fascinan, pero esta versión me gusta mucho especialmente, sobre todo al final de la actuación, cuando la voz se diluye tantísimo y desaparece entre la música.
Lugar: Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas en Madrid
