Yo ya estoy tachando del calendario los días que quedan para disfrutar de unas muy merecidas vacaciones. Y vosotr@s?
Mientras llega ese momento vamos a seguir con nuestras ideas y descubrimientos.
Siempre que organizo una boda o cuando alguna amiga se casa una de las preguntas que siempre me hacen es respecto a la música. Se encuentran ante un mundo lleno de posibilidades sin saber cuál elegir. Me refiero a esa música que hará el momento especial. Si te casas por lo civil puedes utilizar varias piezas durante la ceremonia, si lo haces por el rito católico entonces las posibilidades se reducen al momento de entrar en el salón donde vaya a celebrarse el banquete y la apertura del baile.
Si la pareja tiene alguna canción importante en su vida y significativa entonces la decisión está bastante claro. Pero seamos sinceros... no son muchas las parejas que recuerdan alguna canción especial que haya marcado su relación (eso es más de películas románticas). Así que surge la gran indecisión y agobio (sobre todo por parte de las novias) cuando se acerca el gran momento y no han tenido un momento libre para buscar esas canciones que signifiquen algo especial. Si cuidamos los detalles de la decoración, el vestido, los zapatos, el menú... ¿por qué no dedicarle también el tiempo que se merece a seleccionar la música?
Para aquellos indecis@s que aún no lo tienen claro os traigo una selección de canciones para ayudaros e inspiraros. Quizá podáis utilizar alguna de ellas u os ayude a encontrar vuestra canción. Principalmente las he elegido porque si prestamos atención a la letra son declaraciones de amor en toda regla y tienen un profundo significado. Todas están en inglés así que si tenéis la oportunidad mientras suena la música sería fantástico si de alguna manera pudierais proyectar la letra tanto en el idioma original como su traducción (para aquellos que no sepan inglés!), así a todo el mundo llegará vuestro mensaje de amor.
Qué romántica me he puesto!! Vamos a ello...
Para empezar un clásico, "Endless Love" de Lionel Richie y Diana Ross.
Hi dears!
One question always make me brides and grooms when I plann a wedding is which song could we use for the ceremony, and for the ball? All couples want to have this special moment. If they have a significant song that means something important to them there is no problems! But this is usually a magical moment that only occurs in films. You have to take care about all details (dress, menu, decoration, etc.) including music.
Today I have a little selection for you of some romantic songs. I use to pay attention to lyrics and what the song want to say to us.
First of all, a classic song by Lionel Richie and Diana Ross, "Endless Love".
My love,there's only you in my lifethe only thing that's right.My first love,you're every breath that I takeyou're every step that I make.And II want to shareAll my love with youNo one else will do...And your eyesyour eyes, your eyesThey tell me how much you careooh yes, you will always bemy endless love.Two hearts,two hearts that beat as oneour lives have just begun.ForeverOhhhhhI'll hold you close in my armsI can't resist your charms.And loveOh, loveI'll be a foolfor you, I'm sureYou know I don't mind.Cause you,you mean the world to me, ohI knowI knowI've found in youmy endless love.Oooh-woowOooh, loveOh, loveI'll be that foolfor you, I'm sureYou know I don't mindAnd, yesyou'll be the only one'cause no one can denythis love I have inside.And I'll give it all to youMy loveMy love, my loveMy endeless love
Quizá suene demasiado cursi y muy típico, pero yo sigo sin resistirme a los encantos de Dirty Dancing y de Patrick Swayze cantando "The time of my life", para mi una elección segura!
Maybe it is quite twee but I love Dirty Dancing, I love Patrick Swayze and I love "The time of my life".
Now I have had the time of my lifeno I never felt like this beforeyes I swear it's the truthand I owe it all to you.I have been waiting for so longnow I have finally someoneto stand by me.We saw the writing on the wallas we felt this magical fantasy.Now with passion in our eyesthere's no way we could disguise it secretlyso we take each other's handcase we seem to understand the urgency.Just remember.I can't get enough of.So I will tell you somethingthis could be love becauseI have had the time of my lifeno I never felt like this beforeyes I swear it's the truthand I owe it all to you.With my body and soulI want you more than you'll ever knowso we'll just let it godon't be afraid to lose control.Yes I know whats on your mindwhen you say:"stay with me tonight".Just remember.I can't get enough of.So I will tell you somethingthis could be love becauseI have had the time of my lifeno I never felt like this beforeyes I swear it's the truthand I owe it all to you.I have had the time of my lifeand I have searched through every open doortill I found the truthand I owe it al to you.
Otra canción que me parece preciosa aunque tiene un toque triste es "I'll stand by you" de The Pretenders. Refleja perfectamente lo que una persona que te ama quiere hacer cuando da el sí quiero, estar a tu lado para apoyarte y quererte, y la amistad es la base sobre la que sustentar una pareja.
Another song that I like the most, despite it is quite sad as well, is "I'll stand by you". It is sincere friendship, one of the bases of every couple.
Oh, why you look so sad?Tears are in your eyesCome on and come to me nowdon't be ashamed to cryLet me see you through'cause I've seen the dark side tooWhen the night falls on youYou don't know what to doNothing you confessCould meake me love you lessI'll stand by youI'll stand by youWon't let nobody hurt youI'll stand by youSo if you're mad, get madDon't hold it all insideCome on and talk to me nowHey, what you got to hide?I get angry tooWell I'm a lot like youWhen you're standing at the crossroadsAnd don't know which path to chooseLet me come along'cause even if you're wrongI'll stand by youI'll stand by youWon't let nobody hurt youI'll stand by youTake me in, into your darkest hourAnd I'll neer deser youI'll stand by youAnd when...When the night falls on you, babyYou're felling all aloneYo won't be on your ownI'll stand by youI'll stand by youWon't let nobody hurt youI'll stand by youTake me in, into your darkest hourAnd I'll neve deser youI'll stand by youI'll stand by youWon't let nobody hurt youI'll stand by you
Si te apetece darle un toque más actual puedes optar por la canción "Marry you" de Bruno Mars. Y en lugar de dejaros con el video oficial, disfrutemos de otra de esas ideas con las que todas soñamos alguna vez...
An authentic proposal is Bruno Mars' song "Marry you". Instead of the official video I want to share this real proposal, that all of us have dremed at least for once.
It's a beautiful nightWe're looking for something dumb to doHey babyI think I wanna marry youIs it the look in your eyesOr is it this dancing juice?Who cares, babyI think I wanna marry youWell, I know this little chapelOn the boulevard we can goNo one will knowOh, come on girlWho cares if we're trashedGot a pocket full of cash we can blowShots of patronAnd it's on, girlDon't say no, no, no, no, noJust say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahAnd we'll go, go, go, go, goIf you're ready, like I'm ready'Cause it's a beautiful nightWe're looking for something dumb to doHey babyI think I wanna marry youIs it the look in your eyesOr is it this dancing juice?Who cares, babyI think I wanna marry youI'll go get a ringOoh, so what you wanna do?
Un clásico que seguro a much@s se os habrá pasado por la cabeza es "The way you look tonight". Originalmente pudimos escuchar esta canción en la película "Swing time", donde Fred Aistaire se la canta a Ginger Rogers. Si esta versión os resulta extremadamente clásica siempre podéis optar por la versión que popularizó Frank Sinatra o Tony Benett. Lo importante es prestar atención a la letra.
Another classic is "The way you look tonight". The first time we heard this song was in the film "Swing Times", permormed by Fred Aistaire. Maybe is too much classic for you, so you can choose Frank Sinatra or Tony Benett version.
Someday, when I'm awfully low,
When the world is cold
I will feel a glow just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight.
Yes you're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
And the way you look tonight.
With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart...
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
It touches my foolish heart.
Lovely ... Never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it ?
'Cause I love you ... Just the way you look tonight.
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
it touches my foolish heart.
Lovely... don't you ever change
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it?
'Cause I love you...and Just the way you look tonight
Mm, Mm, Mm, Mm,
Just the way you look to-night.Espero que os haya gustado esta mini-selección. Prometo que muy muy pronto os traeré más canciones para ayudaros en vuestra búsqueda!
