Álbum Selmasongs: Dancer In The Dark de Björk - Canciones
Selmasongs: Dancer In The Dark
Reseña
El proyecto Selmasongs: Dancer In The Dark es la banda sonora de la película de Lars von Trier, pero trasciende esa definición. En este álbum, Björk canaliza completamente a su personaje, Selma, una obrera que escapa de su dura realidad a través de fantasías musicales. En consecuencia, las canciones fusionan la grandiosidad de los musicales clásicos de Hollywood con los sonidos industriales y repetitivos de una fábrica. Esta dualidad crea una tensión constante entre el sueño y la pesadilla, la alegría y la tragedia.
De hecho, el álbum sigue el arco narrativo de la película, llevándonos por un viaje emocionalmente devastador. Por un lado, "Cvalda" transforma el ruido de las máquinas en un número de baile optimista. Por otro lado, el dueto con Thom Yorke en "I've Seen It All" es un momento de una melancolía y belleza desgarradoras. Además, los arreglos orquestales chocan deliberadamente con los ritmos mecánicos, reforzando la temática de la historia. Indudablemente, Selmasongs es una obra conceptual brillante, poderosa tanto dentro como fuera del contexto cinematográfico.

[X]letra de Cvalda
Clatter, crash, clack!
Racket, bang, thump!
Rattle, clang, crack, thud, whack, bam!
It's music! - Now, dance!
Listen, Cvalda
You're the dancer
You've got the sparkle in your eyes
Look at me, entrancer!
Clatter, crash, clack...
The clatter-machines
They greet you and say
We tap out a rhythm and sweep you away!
A clatter-machine
What a magical sound
A room full of noises
That spins you around...
Darling Selma
Look who's dancing
Faster than a shooting star!
Cvalda's here!
Cvalda sings...
Clatter, crash, clack...
The clatter-machines
They greet you, and say
We tap out a rhythm and sweep you away!
A clatter-machine!
What a magical sound!
A room full of noises
That spins us around
It spins us around
It spins us around
It spins us around... - I've Seen It All
- ScatterheartVer letra
[X]letra de Scatterheart
Black night is falling
The sun is gone to bed
The innocents are dreaming
As you should, sleepy-head
Sleepy-head, sleepy-head
All the love above
I send into you
Comfort and protection
I'll watch over you
But don't ask me
What's gonna happen next
I know the future
I'd love to lead you the way
Just to make it easier on you
You are gonna have to find out for yourself
My
Dearest
Scatterheart
There is comfort
Right in the eye
Of the hurricane
Just to make it easier on you
You are gonna have to find out for yourself
All the hurt in the world
You know
There's nothing I'd love to do more
Than spare you from that burden
It's gonna be hard
If I could only
Shelter you
From that pain
Just to make it easier on you
You are gonna have to find out for yourself - In The MusicalsVer letra
[X]letra de In The Musicals
Why do I love it so much?
What kind of magic is this?
How come I can't help adore it?
It's just another musical
No one minds it at all
If I'm having a ball
This is a musical
And there's always someone
To catch me
There's always someone to catch me
There's always someone to catch me
There's always someone to catch me
When you fall
Why do I love you so much?
What kind of magic is this?
How come I can't help adore you?
You were in a musical.
I don't mind it at all
If I'm having a ball
This is a musical!
And you were always there
To catch me
You were always there to catch me
You were always there to catch me
You were always there to catch me
When I fall...
I don't mind it at all
If you're having a ball
This is a musical!
And I will always be there to catch you
I'll always be there to catch you
I'll always be there to catch you
I'll always be there to catch you
I'll always be there to catch you
You were always there to catch me
And there's always someone
To catch me
You will always be there to catch me
You were always there to catch me

one hundred steps - New WorldVer letra
[X]letra de New World
Train-whistles, a sweet clementine
Blueberries, dancers in line
Cobwebs, a bakery sign
Ooh, a sweet clementine
Ooh, dancers in line
Ooh
If living is seeing
I'm holding my breath
In wonder, I wonder
What happens next?
A new world, a new day to see
I'm softly walking on air
Halfway to heaven from here
Sunlight unfolds in my hair
Ooh, I'm walking on air
Ooh, to heaven from here
Ooh
If living is seeing
I'm holding my breath
In wonder, I wonder
What happens next?
A new world, a new day to see
