Música y ficción


En esta selección, las canciones vienen acompañadas por unos videos que también narran historias.


M.I.A, Born free
 



Yeah man made powers
Stood like a tower higher and higher hello
And the higher you go you feel lower, oh
I was close to the end staying undercover
Staying undercover
With a nose to the ground I found my sound

Got myself an interview tomorrow
I got myself a jacket for a dollar

And the car doesn't work so I'm stuck here
Yeah I don't wanna live for tomorrow
I push my life today
I throw this in your face when I see ya
I got something to say
I throw this shit in your face when I see ya
Cause I got something to say

I was born free

You could try to find ways to be happier
You might end up somewhere in Ethiopia
You can think big with your idea
You ain't never gonna find utopia
Take a bite out of life make it snappier yeah
Ordinary gon super trippyer

So I check shit cause I'm lippyer
And split a cheque like slovakia

Yeah I don't wanna live for tomorrow
I push my life today
I throw this in your face when I see you
I got something to say
I throw this shit in your face when I see you
Cause I got something to say

I was born free

I don't wanna talk about money, 'cause I got it
And I don't wanna talk about hoochies, 'cause I been it
And I don't wanna be that fake?, but you can do it
And imitators, yeah, speak it

Oh Lord? Whoever you are, yeah come out wherever you are
And tell em!

Petrograd, Stainboy


Originalmente, la letra de esta canción es de un poema de Tim Burton.


Of all the super heroes,
the strangest one by far,
doesn't have a special power,
or drive a fancy car.

next to Superman and batman,
I guess he must seem tame.
But to me he is quite special,
and Stain Boy is his name.

He can't fly around tall buildings,
or outrun a speeding train,

The only talent he seems to have
is to leave a nasty stain.

Sometimes I Know it bothers him,
that he can't run, or swim, or fly,
and because of this one ability, 
his dry cleaning bill is sky-high.


Is tropical, The Greeks


The Greeks have got him
With their tales of lust and myths of grief
Lights from the big wheel
Casts shadows that dance around the fair
Time for consulting, whilst carouselling
The quiet before the storm
Now he's in trouble, we've all had trouble
But learned to keep it shut

You only get what you give away
You'll only get it if you give it away
You only get what you give away, so throw your hate away

The Greeks have got him
Now he's solemn and beat up pretty bad
Just like his brother
He will wear leather to thicken up his skin
He can't see colours, or hear like others
And has fallen into sin
Now it's all laughed at, the stage is past that
And filled with you and me

You only get what you give away
You'll only get it if you give it away
You only get what you give away, so throw your hate away.




Neurosis & Jarboe, Within



I tell you if God wants to take me, he will....
I tell you if God wants to take me, he will
I tell you if God wants to take me, he will
He's coming
Can't you see he's coming
With the touch of his cold hand
He's coming for you
The kidnapper comes from a space within where thoughts
have created the past again

Música y conflicto

"Cuando en una sociedad prevalece una música lasciva, excitante y perturbadora, sabremos que el pueblo es inmoral" Confucio.

"El hombre libre es inmoral, porque en todas las cosas quiere depender de sí mismo y no de un uso establecido.“ Friedrich Nietzsche, Aurora.

Tragedy, The ending fight


This is the end of the last days of mourning
One more sad song will be sung
The only children of the lost generation
Are restless and angry and armed
We've watched our loved ones
Lose all life and passion
Another lifetime is spent chasing
The prospect of hope and salvation
Wondering where all the early years went
We won't be sold to our sellers
One more sad song will be sung
This chant of anger will ring out like sirens
Until the last neck of the last boss is hung
The end of the ruling classes
The end of sleepless nights
The end of taking orders
The end of wasted lives
the end... the ending fight

Gg Allin, No rules



Anything I wanna do - No rules!
I won't take no shit from you - No rules!
I don't care if you don't like me - No rules!
Do you think I really care? - Let's go!
C'mon lets go and start a riot - No rules!
I like to make noise, I hate to be quiet - No rules!
They can't tell me what to do - No rules!
'Cause I will never ever loose - Let's go!

No rules!

Stand up and shout for what you want - No rules!
Don't give in until you won - No rules!
Never compromise your feelings - No Rules!
'Cause I got the right to show my feelings - Let's go

Ekkaia, El límite de la humanidad

 

El muro de la ignorancia que nos aísla no puede callarnos una vez más y los falsos cristales que todo deforman están mucho más cerca de quebrar.
El acoso despiadado siempre es invisible y seguiréis teniendo a quién engañar, los que corren a ciegas dentro del ruido de cualquier patética ciudad.
Éste es el límite de la humanidad, ahora es el momento de asumir nuestras propias batallas y dejar de coger estúpidas banderas que no significan nada, de por fin mirar de frente a la adversidad. Este es el infierno, la realidad de vuestas macabras promesas de un mundo feliz.


Kobayashi, La verité simple


Tu aimes le patron et ses usines?
Tu aimes la police et sa violence?
Tu aimes l’église et ses messages?
Tu aimes l’armée et ses guerres?
Muerte al Estado, policía asesina
On en a marre, mort a l’Etat
