Twist and Shout!

Nessa semana, mais precisamente na quarta-feira, completou-se 40 anos desde que Paul McCartney declarou o fim dos Beatles. A banda já não existia mais. Foi a transformação de algo brilhante em um mito.
É comum vermos discussões comparando o grupo com alguma outra banda; mesmo quando a opinião de alguém pende para o outro lado, isso não altera a posição dos Beatles como a melhor banda que já existiu. E isso não se refere à qualidade crua, arranjos musicais ou composição das letras - a importância do grupo se resume a uma fala do próprio John: Somos mais populares que Jesus Cristo. Os Beatles serão sempre a melhor banda que já existiu pelo próprio fato de ser a balança constante em uma comparação sobre música. E, mais ainda, por eles não terem tido algo a que se comparar: a banda é um divisor de águas da história da música, é como Sócrates para a filosofia. O que veio depois possui, direta ou indiretamente, influência. Já eles eram, simplesmente, eles. Em algum canto do mundo, não importa que horas sejam, existe pelo menos uma pessoa ouvindo alguma música do grupo. Existe um casal apaixonado que declarou como tema musical para sua história alguma delas. Existem histórias marcadas por essas músicas, porque as músicas importantes têm essa característica de tomar como posse uma partezinha da vida da pessoa - sem elas as memórias seriam como um filme mudo. E, depois de 40 anos do fim, em quantas histórias elas estiveram presentes? Em um mundo de guerras, indiferença, solidão e egoísmo é incrível que tantas pessoas ainda cantem, escrevam e realmente acreditem que tudo o que nós precisamos é de amor. Os Beatles nos ensinaram isso - obrigada, rapazes.

Inspirada nisso, surgiu a ideia de tentar ilustrar algumas músicas com fotos pra montar um post de moda. Não deu muito certo porque ocorreu que eu e a Nat (minha fotógrafa linda que posta aqui pra vocês) fomos expulsas do parque por um ser humano frio e sem coração, daí não foram muitos looks, então vou misturar eles em músicas diferentes. Espero que vocês gostem <3


1- Come Together 

He say I know you, you know me

One thing I can tell you is

You got to be free

He say one and one and one is three

Got to be good looking

'cause he's so hard to see

Come together right now

Over me

2- Something

Something in the way she moves
Attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way she woos me

Somewhere in her smile she knows

That I don't need no other lover

Something in her style that shows me

3- Here Comes the Sun

Little darling

It's been a long cold lonely winter

Little darling

It feels like years since it's been here

Little darling

The smiles returning to the faces

Little darling

It seems like years since it's been here

Here comes the sun

Here comes the sun

And I say

It's all right

Little darling

I feel that ice is slowly melting

Little darling

It seems like years since it's been clear

Here comes the sun

Here comes the sun

And I say

It's all right

4- Blackbird

Blackbird singing in the dead of night,

Take these broken wings and learn to fly.

All your life,

You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night,

Take these sunken eyes and learn to see.

All your life,

You were only waiting for the moment to be free.

5- Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds

Picture yourself in a boat on a river

With tangerine trees and marmalade skies

Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly

A girl with kaleidoscope eyes

Cellophane flowers of yellow and green

Towering over your head

Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes

And she's gone

Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain

Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies

Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers

That grow so incredibly high

Newspaper taxis appear on the shore

Waiting to take you away

Climb in the back with your head in the clouds

And you're gone

6- Twist and Shout

Well, shake it up baby now 

Twist and shout 

Come on, come on, come on, come on baby now 

Well, work it on out (Work it on out)
You know you look so good (Look so good)
You know you got me goin' now (Got me goin')
Just like I knew you would (Like I knew you would)

7- Eleanor Rigby

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been

Lives in a dream

Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door

Who is it for?

All the lonely people, where do they all come from?

All the lonely people, where do they all belong?

8- Girl

Is there anybody going to listen to my story
All about the girl who came to stay?
She´s the kind of girl you want so much
It makes you sorry
Still you don´t regret a single day

When i think of all the times

I´ve tried so hard to leave her

She will turn to me and start to cry

And she promises the earth to me

And i believe her

After all this time i don´t know why

She´s the kind of girl who puts you down
When friends are there
You feel a fool

9- Come and get it

If you want it, here it is come and get it

mmmmmm make your mind up fast

If you want it, anytime, I can give it

But you better hurry 'cause it may not last

Sonny, if you want it, here it is come and get it

But you better hurry 'cause its goin' fast

10- Across the Universe

Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,

They slither while they pass they slip away across the universe.

Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind,

Possessing and caressing me.

Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes,

They call me on and on across the universe.

Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box,

They tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe

11- Good Day Sunshine

I need to laugh, and when the sun is out
I've got something I can laugh about
I feel good, in a special way
I'm in love and it's a sunny day

Then we lie beneath a shady tree
I love her and she's loving me
She feels good, she know she's looking fine
I'm so proud to know that she is mine

12- Dear Prudence

Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day

The sun is up, the sky is blue

It's beautiful and so are you

Dear Prudence won't you come out and play?

13- All you need is love

Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love

There's nothing you can do that can't be done
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung
Nothing you can say, but you can learn how the play the game
It's easy

There's nothing you can make that can't be made
No one you can save that can't be saved
Nothing you can do, but you can learn how to be you in time
It's easy

All you need is love

All you need is love

All you need is love, love

Love is all you need

There's nothing you can know that isn't known

Nothing you can see that isn't shown

Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

It's easy

All you need is love

All you need is love

All you need is love, love

Love is all you need
