Sarah McLachlan - Hold On

Hold on
Hold on to yourself
For this is gonna hurt like hell
Hold on
Hold on to yourself
You know that only time will tell
What is it in me that refuses to believe
This isn’t easier than the real thing
My love
You know that you’re my best friend
You know I’d do anything for you
My love
Let nothing come between us
My love for you is strong and true

Am I in heaven here or am i...
At the crossroads I am standing
So now you’re sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
That you’ll be strong tomorrow and we’ll
See another day and we will praise it
And love the light that brings a smile
Across your face

Oh God if you’re out there won’t you hear me
I know that we’ve never talked before
Oh God the man I love is leaving
Won’t you take him when he comes to your door

Am I in heaven here or am I in hell
At the crossroads I am standing
So now you’re sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
That you’ll be strong tomorrow and we’ll
See another day and we will praise it
And love the light that brings a smile
Across your face...

Hold on
Hold on to yourself
For this is gonna hurt like hell 

[Esta canção foi inspirada num casal de seropositivos quando o marido estava a morrer.]

Bruce Springsteen - Streets of Philadelphia 

 

 I was bruised and battered and I couldn't tell

What I felt
I was unrecognizable to myself
I saw my reflection in a window I didn't know
My own face
Oh brother are you gonna leave me
Wastin´away
On the streets of philadelphia
 I walked the avenue till my legs felt like stone
I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone
At night I could hear the blood in my veins
Black and whispering as the rain
On the streets of philadelphia
 Ain't no angel gonna greet me
Its just you and I my friend
My clothes don't fit me no more
I walked a thousand miles
Just to slip the skin
 The night has fallen, I'm lyin' awake
I can feel myself fading away
So receive me brother with your faithless kiss
Or will we leave each other alone like this
On the streets of philadelphia

 [Esta canção faz parte da banda sonora do filme "Filadélfia" que aborda o tema da SIDA e da homossexualidade.]

 Rita Lee - Amor e Sexo

Amor é um livro
Sexo é esporte
Sexo é escolha
Amor é sorte...

Amor é pensamento
Teorema
Amor é novela
Sexo é cinema..

Sexo é imaginação
Fantasia
Amor é prosa
Sexo é poesia...

O amor nos torna
Patéticos
Sexo é uma selva
De epiléticos...

Amor é cristão
Sexo é pagão
Amor é latifúndio
Sexo é invasão
Amor é divino
Sexo é animal
Amor é bossa nova
Sexo é carnaval
Oh! Oh! Uh!

Amor é para sempre
Sexo também
Sexo é do bom
Amor é do bem...

Amor sem sexo
É amizade
Sexo sem amor
É vontade...

Amor é um
Sexo é dois
Sexo antes
Amor depois...

Sexo vem dos outros
E vai embora
Amor vem de nós
E demora...

Amor é cristão
Sexo é pagão
Amor é latifúndio
Sexo é invasão
Amor é divino
Sexo é animal
Amor é bossa nova
Sexo é carnaval
Oh! Oh! Oh!

Amor é isso
Sexo é aquilo
E coisa e tal!
E tal e coisa!
Uh! Uh! Uh!
Ai o amor!
Hum! O sexo!

 Queen - Made in Heaven

I'm taking my right with destiny
Willing to play my part
Living with painful memories
Loving with all my heart

Made in heaven, made in heaven
It was all meant to be, yeah
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what they say
Can't you see
That's what everybody says to me
Can't you see
Oh I know, I know, I know, that it's true
Yes it's really meant to be
Deep in my heart

I'm having to learn to pay the price
They're turning me upside down
Waiting for possibilities
Don't see too many around
Made in heaven, yes made in heaven
It's for all to see
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what everybody says
Everybody says to me
It was really meant to be
Oh can't you see
Yeah, everybody, everybody says
Yes it was meant to be
Yeah, yeah

When stormy weather comes around
It was made in heaven
When sunny skies break through behind the clouds
I wish it could last forever, yeah
Wish it could last forever, forever

I'm playing my role in history
Looking to find my goal
Taking in all this misery
But giving it all my soul
Made in heaven, made in heaven
It was all meant to be
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what everybody says
Wait and see, it was really meant to be
So plain to see
Yeah, everybody, everybody, everybody tells me so
Yes it was plain to see, yes it was meant to be
Written in the stars...
Written in the stars...

  [Esta música dá nome ao último álbum dos Queen que integra temas cantados por Freddie Mercury. O álbum foi editado após a morte do cantor, com músicas previamente gravadas.]

 Queen - Too Much Love Will Kill You

I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I'm far away from home
And I've been facing this alone
For much too long
Oh, I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In my tangled state of mind
I've been looking back to find
Where I went wrong

Too much love will kill you
If you can't make up your mind
Torn between the lover
And the love you leave behind
You're headed for disaster
'Cos you never read the signs
Too much love will kill you - every time

I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems like there's no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine
Now all I ever do is bring you down
Ooh, how would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can't you see that it's impossible to choose
No there's no making sense of it
Every way I go I'm bound to lose
Oh yes,

Too much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all
It'll drain the power that's in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You're the victim of your crime
Too much love will kill you - every time

Yes, too much love will kill you
It'll make your life a lie
Yes, too much love will kill you
And you won't understand why
You'd give your life, you'd sell your soul
But here it comes again
Too much love will kill you
In the end
In the end 

[Esta é uma das músicas do álbum "Made in Heaven", cuja letra nos leva a pensar que Freddie Mercury se estava a despedir da vida. Outras são igualmente fantásticas como: "It's a Beautiful Day", "Let Me Live", "My Life Has Been Saved" ou "Heaven for Everyone".]

 Elton John - The Last Song
 
 Yesterday you came to lift me up
As light as straw and brittle as a bird
Today I weigh less than a shadow on the wall
Just one more whisper of a voice unheard

Tomorrow leave the windows open
As fear grows please hold me in your arms
Won't you help me if you can to shake this anger
I need your gentle hands to keep me calm

`Cause I never thought I'd lose
I only thought I'd win
I never dreamed I'd feel
This fire beneath my skin
I can't believe you love me
I never thought you'd come
I guess I misjudged love
Between a father and his son

Things we never said come together
The hidden truth no longer haunting me
Tonight we touched on the things that were never spoken
That kind of understanding sets me free

[Canção feita em memória de um rapaz de 18 anos que morreu com SIDA]

Músicas Sobre Homossexualidade

Rod Stewart - The Killing of Georgie

In these days of changing ways
so called liberated days
a story comes to mind of a friend of mine
 Georgie boy was gay I guess
nothin' more or nothin' less
the kindest guy I ever knew
 His mother's tears fell in vain
the afternoon George tried to explain
that he needed love like all the rest
 Pa said there must be a mistake
how can my son not be straight
after all I've said and done for him
 Leavin' home on a Greyhound bus
cast out by the ones he loves
A victim of these gay days it seems
 Georgie went to New York town
where he quickly settled down
And soon became the toast of the great white way
 Accepted by Manhattan's elite
in all the places that were chic
No party was complete without George
 Along the boulevards he'd cruise
and all the old queens blew a fuse
Everybody loved Georgie boy
 The last time I saw George alive
was in the summer of seventy-five
he said he was in love I said I'm pleased
 George attended the opening night
of another Broadway hype
but split before the final curtain fell
 Deciding to take a short cut home
arm in arm they meant no wrong
A gentle breeze blew down Fifth Avenue
 Out of a darkened side street came
a New Jersey gang with just one aim
to roll some innocent passer-by
There ensued a fearful fight
screams rang out in the night
Georgie's head hit a sidewalk cornerstone
 A leather kid, a switchblade knife
He did not intend to take his life
He just pushed his luck a little too far that night
 The sight of blood dispersed the gang
A crowd gathered, the police came
An ambulance screamed to a halt on Fifty-third and Third
 Georgie's life ended there
but I ask who really cares
George once said to me and I quote
 He said "Never wait or hesitate
Get in kid, before it's too late
You may never get another chance
'Cos youth a mask but it don't last
live it long and live it fast"
Georgie was a friend of mine
 Oh Georgie stay, don't go away
Georgie please stay you take our breath away
Oh Georgie stay, don't go away
Georgie please stay you take our breath away
Oh Georgie stay, don't go away
Georgie, Georgie please stay you take our breath away
Oh Georgie stay

The Kinks - Lola

 I met her in a club down in old Soho
Where you drink champagne
It tastes just like Coca Cola, C-O-L-A cola

She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice
She said Lola, L-O-L-A, Lola, L-L-Lola

Well, I'm not the world's most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine
Oh my Lola, L-L-Lola

Well, I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walked like a woman but talked like a man
Oh my Lola, L-L-Lola, L-L-Lola

Well, we drank champagne and danced all night
Under electric candlelight
She picked me up and sat me on her knee
And said, "Dear boy, won't you come home with me?"

Well, I'm not the world's most passionate guy
But when I looked in her eyes well I almost fell for my Lola
L-L-Lola, L-L-Lola
Lola, L-L-Lola, L-L-Lola
(From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/k/kinks-lyrics/lola-lyrics.html)

I pushed her away, I walked to the door
I fell to the floor, I got down on my knees
Then I looked at her and she at me

That's the way that I want it to stay
I always want it to be that way for my Lola, L-L-Lola

Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
It's a mixed up muddled up, shook up world
Except for Lola, L-L-Lola

Well, I left home just a week before
And I'd never ever kissed a woman before
But Lola smiled and took me by the hand
And said, "Dear boy, I'm gonna make you a man"

Well, I'm not the world's most masculine man
But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man
And so is Lola, L-L-Lola, L-L-Lola
Lola, L-L-Lola, L-L-Lola

Lola, L-L-Lola, L-L-Lola
Lola, L-L-Lola, L-L-Lola
Lola, L-L-Lola, L-L-Lola

Lola, L-L-Lola, L-L-Lola
Lola, L-L-Lola, L-L-Lola
Lola, L-L-Lola, L-L-Lola

[Ray Davis, para escrever esta música, inspirou-se numa noite que o Manager da banda passou a dançar com um travesti.]

T.A.T.U - All The Things She Said

All the things she said
All the things she said
Runnin' through my head (3x)
All the things she said
All the things she said
Runnin' through my head (2x)
All the things she said
All the things she said
This is not enough,
enough (Echo 3x)

I'm in serious shit, I feel totally lost
If I'm asking for help it's only because
Being with you has opened my eyes
Could I eva believe such a perfect surprise?

I keep asking myself, wondering how
I keep closing my eyes but I can't block you out
Wanna fly to a place where it's just you and me
Nobody else so we can be free (Echo 1x)

All the things she said
All the things she said
Runnin' through my head (3x)
All the things she said
All the things she said
Runnin' through my head (2x)
All the things she said
This is not enough [wa wa] (2x)

All the things she said
All the things she said

All the things she said
All the things she said

All the things she said
All the things she said

All the things she said

And I'm all mixed up, feeling cornered and rushed
They say it's my fault but I want her so much
Wanna fly her away where the sun and rain
Come in over my face, wash away all the shame
When they stop and stare - don't worry me
‘Cause I'm feelin' for her what she's feeling for me
I can try to pretend, I can try to forget
But it's driving me mad, going out of my head

All the things she said
All the things she said
Runnin' through my head (3x)
All the things she said
All the things she said
Runnin' through my head (2x)
All the things she said
This is not enough (2x)

All the things she said (11x)

Mother looking at me
Tell me what do you see?
Yes, I've lost my mind

Daddy lookin' at me
Will I eva be free?
Have I crossed the line?

Beatles - You've Got To Hide Your Love Away

Here I stand head in hand
Turn my face to the wall
If she's gone I can't go on
Feelin' two-foot small

Everywhere people stare
Each and every day
I can see them laugh at me
And I hear them say

Hey you've got to hide your love away
Hey you've got to hide your love away

How can I even try
I can never win
Hearing them, seeing them
In the state I'm in

How could she say to me
Love will find a way
Gather round all you clowns
Let me hear you say

Hey you've got to hide your love away
Hey you've got to hide your love away

[Esta canção foi escrita em homenagem ao "quinto beatle", o manager da banda, que era homossexual. O título evindencia esse facto.]

R.E.M - Losing My Religion 

   Oh, life is bigger
It's bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh, no I've said too much
I set it up

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spot light
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I've said too much
I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

Every whisper
Of every waking hour
I'm choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt, lost and blinded fool (Fool)
Oh, no I've said too much
I set it up

Consider this (2x)
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip that brought me
To my knees failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around
Now I've said too much

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spot light
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh, no I've said too much
I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
Try, cry, why, try
That was just a dream
Just a dream, just a dream, dream

[Esta música não tem nada anti-religioso, apesar da sua mensagem ainda não ser completamente clara, pensa-se que tem a ver com a bissexualidade de Stipe e trata-se de uma música sobre "sair do armário", uma vez que a Religião condena as relações gay.]

Bell Meireles - Alerta contra as DST's

 DSTs sabem o que quer dizer?

Estou aqui só para te explicar

DSTs sabem o que quer dizer?

Estou aqui só para te explicar

São as Doenças Sexualmente Transmissíveis

Que só contrai quem não sabe se cuidar

São inúmeras as doenças

Qualquer um pode pegar

Mas prá quem tem consciência

Nunca o risco correrá

Entre as DSTs

Algumas são mais graves

Como a Hepatite B e C

Sífilis e AIDS

Mas atenção que essas quatro doenças

Não é só pelo sexo, que se pega

Os contatos com sangues, não testados

Seringas e agulhas, contaminados

Da mãe pro filho pode haver transmissão

E isso acontece na gestação!

Que sexo é bom

Ninguém duvída     

Mas sem cuidado

Ele fere a nossa vida

Herpes Genital é DST

Condiloma é DST

Gonorréia é DST

HPV é DST

Existem outras doenças

Que são DSTs

Porém, essas são as mais comuns

Usem sempre camisinha

Prá não se contaminar

Que é também prá quem não quer engravidar

Diminua os parceiros

Não se arrisque em quantidades

Comece a investir na qualidade

Mas se alguns desses problemas

Estão a te atormentar

É só ajuda você procurar

Em um serviço de saúde

Eles vão te orientar

A maneira mais correta de tratar

Que sexo é bom

Ninguém duvída      

Mas sem cuidado

Ele fere a nossa vida
