Seus trechos preferidos das músicas de Elvis

[JeanFabricio]

Olá.
Quais os trechos/frases preferidos de músicas do Elvis de vocês?

Eu tenho alguns, mas estes para mim são muito bonitos, não só na "poesia", mas na melodia também:

"I don't know what I’d do if you go away" (Love coming down)
"Clouds paint pictures in the sky" (Coming home)
"Well maybe some other time, in some other place, with our love in your heart and a smile on your face" (Do you know who I am?)

[marlon]

impossible dream:
"This is my quest, to follow that star
No matter how hopeless,
No matter how far"

long lonely highway
"So if you read about me tell her she's the one to blame"

big love big heatache
"The more you fall in love
The more your heart can break in two"

Só pra começar.

[Sergio Biston]

Ótimo tópico Jean
Assim como você, essa também é uma de minhas favoritas:
"Well maybe some other time, in some other place, with our love in your heart and a smile on your face" (Do You Know Who I Am?)

Outras que me vem a memória onde além de letra, a maneira que Elvis as canta é extremamente emocional:

"You can go where I can Never Found You, But Could You Go Far Enough, To take me from your heart? (For Ol´Time Sake)

"I Know I shouldn´t Want To Keep You, If You Dont Wat To Stay.
Untill You´ve Gone Forever, I´ll Be Holding On, For Dear Life.
Holding You This Way,
Begging You To Stay "( Any Day Now)

"Look up at the sky at midnight
Gaze up on the starlit view
Just as heaven has no boundaries
Neither does my love for you" ( Never Ending)

"If You Could Hear Me now
Singing somewhere in the lonely night
Dreaming of the arms that held me tight" ( Loving Arms)

"The clock by the bed is ticking too loud in the quiet night
I lie in the darkness thinking I must go before it's light
Before you open up your eyes and you beg me to stay
I'll leave 'cause I can't stand to see you hurt this way" (The Sound Of Your Cry)


"The way she held your hand,
The little things you planned,
Her memory is with you yet,
That’s someone you never forget"(That’s someone you never forget )

[marlon]

dois "guilty pleasures", que apesar de serem gravadas num periodo triste de sua carreira, vejo um saudável bom humor, um ritmo alegre e até um rabisco filosófico nessas duas musicas:

A Dogs Life
"Someone to love me
Someone to care
Rubberduck dubble little fingers through my hair
I need a dog's life
What a life, that's good enough for me
That's good enough for me"

house of sand
"One little slip and it tumbles down
One wrong step and it crumbles all around
Like a house without love, that’s sure to fall apart
A house of sand is an empty work of art"

[Sergio Biston]

"Where I´d Go
Who I´ll have to lie beside me
To Easy This emptiness inside me"
(I´m Leaving)
A última frase principalmente, deve ter grande significado para Elvis, cuja busca pelo sentido da vida se aprofundava cada vez mais em seus pensamentos.

Que tema legal! Me lembra um curso que fiz sobre a Poesia Pura, que, entre outras questões, tratava de momentos sublimes que ocorrem em alguns poemas e que desencadeiam uma cascata inexpressável e epifânica de sensações. Certamente essa é uma boa forma de ouvir a obra do Elvis!

Acho que eu posso ficar o dia inteiro escolhendo momentos que eu adoro nas canções.

Acabei de ouvir um trecho que eu omiti lá no início do tópico:

"So I turn my back, turn my collar to the wind" (It's over)

[Sergio Biston]

Acabei de ouvir um trecho que eu omiti lá no início do tópico:

"So I turn my back, turn my collar to the wind" (It's over)

Essa é ótima realmente Jean, principalmente na íntegra:
"So I turn my back,
Turn my collar to the wind
Move along in silence
Trying not to think at all
I set my feet before me
Walk the silent street before me
Now it's over"

Outra que me lembrei:
"If you just give me one more try,
I swear I always be here,
if you need me" ( Love Coming Down)

[Wagner Now]

What now my love
Now that you' re gone
I'll be a fool to go on and on

No one would care,no one would cry
If I should live or die
What now my love
Now there is nothing
Only my last goodbye!
Only my last goodbye!

[Wagner Now]

This love of mine had no beginning,it has no end
I was an oak,now I'm a willow
Now I can bend
And though I'II never in my life see you again
And still I'll stay until it's time for you to go
(ELVIS NOW)
