De dentro a fuera

Al igual que a mi padre y a mi hermano, me gustan mucho las bandas sonoras de películas. Una muy recomendable, y muy sensual, es la de Waiting to Exhale (Esperando un respiro, 1995), que supuso el debut como director de Forest Whitaker y narraba la historia de cuatro amigas de raza negra (Whitney Houston, Angela Bassett, Loretta Devine, Lela Rochon) y su relación con los hombres.

El disco, producido por Babyface, combina soul y rhythm & blues y cuenta con las estelares aportaciones de Whitney Houston, Toni Braxton, Aretha Franklin y Patti LaBelle, entre otras (aquí pongo lo que he encontrado en Youtube, no siempre de calidad).

Pon una luz tenue, busca a tu pareja, llámala susurrando, deja hervir la sangre y prepárate para transportarte a otro mundo.

Whitney Houston- Exhale (Shoop, Shoop)

Everyone falls in love sometime
Sometimes it's wrong
And sometimes it's right
For every win
Someone must fail
But there comes a point when
When we exhale (yeah, yeah, say)

[Chorus:]
Shoop, Shoop, Shoop
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop (yeah)
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop
(All you got to say is shoo be doop)
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop (Shoo be doop)
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop
Shoo Be Doo

Sometimes you'll laugh
Sometimes you'll cry
Life never tells us
The when's or why's
When you've got friends to wish you well
You'll find a point when
You wille exhale (yeah, yeah, say)

[Chorus:]
Shoop, Shoop, Shoop
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop (shoo shoo shoo huh)
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop (Sho0 be)
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop (Say shoop say shoo be say shoo be)
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop (say shoo-hoo say sho)
Shoo Be Doo (be doo oh)

Hearts are often broken
When there are words unspoken
In your soul there's
Answers to your prayers
If you're searching for
A place you know
A familiar face
Somewhere to go
You should look inside yourself
You're halfway there

[Repeat Verse 2]

[Chorus:]
Shoop, Shoop, Shoop (Shoo Be)
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop (Shoo Be)
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop (Shoo Be)
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop (Shoo-hoo-hoo be)
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop (Shoo be doop doop doop hoo hoo hoo)
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop (do do shoo be shoo be feels alright)
Shoo Be Doop Shoop Shoop (You can say oh)
Shoo Be Doo

Whitney Houston - Why Does It hurt So Bad

Chorus:]
Why does it hurt so bad
Why do I feel so sad
Thought I was over you
But I keep crying
When I don't love you
So why does it hurt so bad
I thought I had let you go
So why does it hurt me so
I gotta get you outta my head
It hurts so bad
Oh it hurts so bad baby

My life's been better
Since the day I left you boy
I must admit life's been kind to me
I went and did the things I said I would boy
I found someone who loves me for me
Haven't had much drama since the day that we split boy
My heart's never been more at ease
And when I think of all the things you put me through
Leaving you has been the best thing for me

[Chorus:]
So why does it hurt so bad
Why do I feel so sad
I thought I was over you
But I keep crying
When I don't love you
So why does it hurt so bad
Baby I thought I had let you go
So why does it hurt me so
I gotta get you outta my head
Hurts me so bad
Hurts so (yeah you do)
Hurts so (hurts me so)
Hurts so bad (did you know)
Hurts so (that it hurts me so)
Hurts so (so bad, hey hoh)

"Never again" that's what I said to myself
I never wanna feel kind of pain again boy
Just when I think it's over
Just when I think it's through
I find myself right back in love with you

[Chorus:]
So why does it hurt so bad oh baby
Why do I feel so sad
(thought I thought I) Thought I was over you
I keep crying
When I don't love you (when I really don't love you boy)
(oh no oh no oh no oh no it hurts so bad, oh tell me)
So why does it hurt so bad
I thought I had let you go (thought I could let you go)
You could
Gotta get you outta my head
Boy you hurt me so bad
Hurts so (yeah you do)
Hurts so (hurt me so)
Hurts so bad (hurts so)
Hurts so (sure you did)
Hurts so (make me wanna make me wanna shoop shoop)
Hurts so bad (hurt me so, gotta shoop now, hey hey hey hey)
Hurts so bad (Hurts me so)
Oh why, you hurt me so bad
Bad... (how bout that?)

Toni Braxton - Let It Flow

First thing Monday morning
I'm gonna pack my tears away
Got no cause to look back
I'm lookin' for me a better day
You see the thing 'bout love
Is that it's not enough
If the only thing it brings you is pain
There comes a time when we could all make a
change

Just let go
And let it flow, let it flow, let it flow
Everything's gonna work out right, Y'know
Let go, and let it flow, let it flow, let it flow
Just let it go

Don't nobody want no broke heart
And don't nobody want no two time losers
Ain't nobody gonna love you like you are
If you take whatever he brings your way
You see the thing of it
Is we deserve respect
But we can't demand respect without change
There comes a time when we must go our own way

Just let go
And let it flow, let it flow, let it flow
Everything's gonna work out right, Y'know
Let go, and let it flow, let it flow, let it flow
Just let it go

Sometimes love it can work out right
Sometimes you'll never know
But if it brings only pain in your life
Don't be afraid to let it go

Aretha Franklin - It Hurt Like Hell
[Intro]
Oh baby
Oh oh babe
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh baby

Love was always supposed to be
Something wonderful to me
To watch it grow inside yourself
To feel your heart beside itself

Sometimes it hurts to love so bad
(When you know you've given all you can)
Sometimes it hurts to even laugh
(You do your best but it's still much too sad)
Sometimes the pain is just too much, oh oh
And it hurts like hell, that's the way it feels

True love, it has no hiding place
It's not something you just put away
It's always there inside of you
Oh, and it shows in everything you do

Sometimes it hurts to love so bad
(When you know you've given it your best)
Sometimes it hurts to even laugh
(You feel a thousand miles from happiness)
Sometimes the pain is just too much, oh oh oh
And it hurts like hell, that's the way it feels

Oh oh, oh oh
Here we are, the two of us
So full of love, so little trust
But dying for some tenderness
Ohh, but too afraid to take the step

Sometimes it hurts to love so bad
(When you know what it can put you through)
Sometimes it hurts to even laugh
(There's nothing funny if it's killing you)
Sometimes the pain is just too much
And it hurts like hell, that's the way it feels

I know if there is any chance
For us to find our happiness
We've got to learn to let it go
Ohh, forget all the pain we know

Sometimes it hurts to love so bad
(Sometimes it hurts so bad, baby)
Sometimes it hurts to even laugh
(Sometimes it hurts to even laugh, oh)
And it hurts like hell, that's the way
Oh baby, that's the way it feels
Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah

Brandy - Sittin Up In My Room

Seems like ever since, the first day we met
There is no one else I think of more than you
Can't seem to forget, can't get you out my head
Cause the verdicts in I'm crazy over you
How can one be down, tell me where to start
Cause everytime you smile, I feel tremors in my heart
I have but one concern, how can I get with you
Til my day comes, here's what I'm gonna do.

[Chorus]

Be sittin up in my room
Back here thinkin bout you
I must confess, I'm a mess for you
Be sittin up in my room
Back here thinkin bout you
I must confess, I'm a mess for you

Pray that you'll invest, in my happiness
All it takes is just one simple call from you
Turn my heart around, if I'm making ground
Pretty baby please, tell me if I'm getting through
Tell me what is up
You see I need to know
Tell if I'm far, or if I'm getting close
I have but one concern, and that one concern is you
Til I'm with you, here's what I'm gonna do

[Repeat Chrous]

How can one be down, tell me where to start
Cause everytime you smil, I feel tremors in my heart
I have but one concern, how can i get with you
Til my day comes, here's what I'm gonna do

[Repeat Chorus]

Mary J. Blige - Not Gon' Cry

While all the time that I was loving you
You were busy loving yourself
I would stop breathing if you told me to
Now your busy loving someone else
11 years out of my life
Besides the kids I have nothing to show
Wasted my years a fool of a wife
I shoulda have left your ass a long time ago

[1] - Well I'm not gon' cry, I'm not gon' cry
I'm not gon' shed no tears
No, I'm not gon' cry, it's not the time
Cuz your not worth my tears
Well I'm not gon' cry, I'm not gon' cry
I'm not gon' shed no tears
No, I'm not gon' cry, it's not the time
Cuz you're not worth my tears

[2] - I was your lover and your secretary
Working every day of the week
Was at the job when no one else was there
Helping you get on your feet
11 years of sacrifice
And you can leave at the drop of a dime
Swallowed my fears, stood by your side
I shoulda left your ass a thousand times

[Repeat 1]

I know there are no guarantees
In love you take your chances
But somehow it seems unfair to me
Look at the circumstances
Through sickness and health, 'till death do us part
Those were the words that we said from our heart
So now that you say that you're leaving me
I don't get that part

[Repeat 2]

[Repeat 1 until fade]

SWV- All night long

Coko]
Baby you can call on me
Anytime that you feel the need
And I'll be there in a hurry
Giving you the best of me

And baby you know I keep it nice and warm to satisfy
Baby you know that I am always hot for you
And if there's any kind of love that will exemplify
My sweetie I have got that kind of love times two

[1 - SWV]
Boy I'll do you all night long
Do you any way you want
I will do you all night long
I wanna please you
Don't wanna tease you

[Coko]
You can melt in my body
And I will slowly melt onto you
Caress your face in my valley
Let me feel the sweetness of you

[Coko and Taj]
And baby you know I'll keep it special each and every time
I never do nothin once and never quite the same
And baby you know if there is anything you want from me
I will supply so you can have it your way

[Repeat 1]

[Coko]
Here's the vibe, there's candlelight
As I undress for you baby
A sip if wine, we take our time
Then I undress you too
I look at you, you look at me
And then we both embrace
And then we just let nature take it's place

[Repeat 1 to fade]

Patti Labelle - My Love, Sweet Love

[1] - My love, sweet love
With you, nothing else matters
You're my heart, and my heart is yours
My love, sweet love
For me, there's no one better
Cross my heart, I could not love you more

And I swear to you, there's no one more important
And I trust you with my life
So I pledge my heart to you

[Repeat 1]

'Cause with you, my world
Is filled with so much pleasure
When I'm blind, you are my eyes
So I pledge my trust to you

[Repeat 1]

And I swear to you
That I will always love you
And I trust you with my heart
So I pledge my world
I pledge my world, I pledge my world to you

[Repeat 1]

Whitney Houston - Count on me

[Chorus]
Count on me through think and thin
A friendship I will never end
When you are weak, I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there
Don't be afraid
Please believe me when I say
Count on...

[Verse1]
I can see it's hurting you
I can feel the pain
It's hard to see the sunshine though the rain
I know sometimes it seems as if
It's never gonna end
But you'll get through it
Just don't give in cause you can...

[chorus]

[Verse2]
I know sometimes it seems as if
We're standing all alone
But we'll get though it
Cause love won't let us fall

[chorus]

There's a place inside of all of us
Where our faith in love begins
You should reach to find the truth in love
The answers there within, oh
I know that life can make you feel
It's much harder than it really is
But we'll get through it
Just don't give in

[chorus]

Whitney: count on
Ce Ce: Count on
