Sixpence None The Richer – There She Goes

Segunda faixa do álbum homônimo Sixpence None The Richer (Squint/Elektra - 1999). Trata-se de um cover do grupo The La's, de Liverpool. There She Goes, pelo que se depreende da letra, fala de dependência de heroína.

There She Goes
(Lee Mavers)

There she goes
There she goes again
Racing through my brain
And I just can't contain
This feeling that remains

There she goes
There she goes again
Pulsing through my veins
And I just can't contain
This feeling that remains

There she goes
There she goes again
Racing through my brain
And I just can't contain
This feeling that remains

There she goes
There she goes again
She calls my name,
Pulls my train
No one else could heal my pain
And I just can't contain
This feeling that remains

There she goes
There she goes again
Chasing down my lane
And I just can't contain
This feeling that remains

There she goes
There she goes
There she goes

Sixpence None The Richer – Don’t Dream It’s Over

Quarta faixa do álbum Divine Discontent (Reprise/Squint Entertainment - 2002). Traduzindo para o português, o nome do grupo significa "seis centavos não deixam ninguém rico". Pessoalmente, prefiro este arranjo ao original do grupo neozelandês Crowded House, talvez pela voz feminina da vocalista Leigh Nash e pelo solo de guitarra, mais limpo e bem elaborado.

Don't Dream It's Over
(Neil Finn)

There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road
While you're travelling with me

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win

Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof
In the paper today tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the TV page

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win

Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only shadows ahead barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and release

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win

Don't let them win

Hey now, hey now

Woman In Chains
(Roland Orzabal)

You better love loving and you better behave
You better love loving and you better behave
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains

Calls her man The Great White Hope
Says she's fine, she'll always cope
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains

Well I feel lying and waiting is a poor man's deal
And I feel hopelessly weighed down by your eyes of steel
Well, it's a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains

Trades her soul as skin and bone
Sells the only thing she owns
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains

Men of Stone!
Men of Stone!

Well I feel deep in your heart there are wounds time can't heal
And I feel somebody, somewhere is trying to breathe
Well you know what I mean
It's a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains

It's under my skin but out of my hands
I'll tear it apart but I won't understand
I will not accept the Greatness of Man

It's a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains

So Free Her
So Free Her
