There Is Nothing Left To Lose es un álbum de Foo Fighters, publicado en 1999 por Roswell Records. El disco incluye 11 canciones, entre ellas «Stacked Actors», «Breakout», «Learn To Fly» y «Gimme Stitches».

Introducción: la calma después de la tormenta

"There Is Nothing Left to Lose" es el tercer álbum de estudio de Foo Fighters, lanzado en 1999. Tras la intensidad y el drama de su álbum anterior, este disco representa un giro hacia un sonido más relajado, melódico y soleado. Grabado por la banda como un trío (Grohl, Mendel y Hawkins) en el estudio casero de Dave Grohl en Virginia, el álbum tiene una atmósfera íntima y libre de presiones. Es su trabajo más orientado al pop rock de los 90, lleno de melodías irresistibles y un sentimiento general de optimismo. El título, "No queda nada que perder", refleja la nueva independencia de la banda tras dejar su sello discográfico anterior. El álbum ganó el Grammy al Mejor Álbum de Rock.

Cómo nació el disco

Después de una tumultuosa relación con Capitol Records, la banda decidió dejar el sello y grabar su siguiente álbum por su cuenta, sin plazos ni interferencias. Construyeron un estudio en el sótano de la casa de Grohl y pasaron varios meses escribiendo y grabando en un ambiente relajado. Fue el primer álbum con el batería Taylor Hawkins, cuya química con Grohl se convirtió en una de las piedras angulares de la banda. El resultado es un sonido más cálido y orgánico.

Repaso a los temas

"Learn to Fly": El single principal es un himno de pop rock perfecto. Con su melodía edificante y su estribillo masivo, se convirtió en el primer single de la banda en entrar en el Top 20 del Billboard Hot 100. Su divertido videoclip, en el que la banda (con la ayuda de Tenacious D) debe aterrizar un avión, fue un gran éxito.

"Stacked Actors": El tema de apertura es una de las canciones más pesadas y directas del álbum, una crítica mordaz a la falsedad de Hollywood.

"Next Year": Una balada melancólica con influencias de soft rock de los 70, que muestra el lado más introspectivo del disco.

Ventas y recepción

El álbum fue otro éxito, alcanzando el puesto 10 en Estados Unidos y el Reino Unido. Ganó el Grammy al Mejor Álbum de Rock en 2001. La crítica elogió su sonido melódico y su consistencia, aunque algunos fans del rock más duro lo encontraron demasiado suave. Con el tiempo, ha sido revaluado como uno de sus trabajos más cohesivos y subestimados.

    Letra

    Oh mirror mirror, you're coming in clear, I'm finally somewhere in between. I'm impressed, what a beautiful chest, I never meant to make a big scene. Will you resign to the latest design, You look so messy when you dress up in dreams. One more for hire, a wonderful liar, I think it's time that I should come clean. Stack dead actors, stacked to the rafters, Line up the bastards all I want is the truth. Hey, hey now, can you fake it, Can you make it look like we won. Hey, hey now, can you take it, And we cry when they all die blonde. God bless, what a sensitive mess, Yeah, but things aren't always what they seem. Your teary eyes, your famous disguise, Never knowing who to believe. See through, yeah but what do you do, When you're just another aging drag queen. Stack dead actors, stacked to the rafters, Line up the bastards all I want is the truth. Hey, hey now, can you fake it, Can you make it look like we won. Hey, hey now, can you take it, And we cry when they all die blonde. Stack dead actors, stacked to the rafters, Line up all the bastards all I want is the truth. Stack dead actors, stacked to the rafters, Line up all the bastards and we cry when they all die blonde. Hey, hey now, can you fake it, Can you make it look like we won. Hey, hey now, can you take it, And we cry when they all die blonde. Stack dead actors, stacked to the rafters, Line up all the bastards all I want is the truth. Stack dead actors, stacked to the rafters, Line up the bastards. Cry when they all die blonde.

    You make me dizzy running circles in my head One of these days I'll chase you down Well look who's going crazy now We're face to face my friend Better get out Better get out You know you make me break out Make me break out I don't want to look like that x2 I don't want to look like that You know you make me break out You can see this on my face It's all for you The more and more I take I break right through Therapy still scares me Putting me on my back again I may be crazy, little frayed around the ends One of these days I'll phase you out Burn it in the blast off Burn it in the blast off Watching me crawl away Try to get out Try to get out You know you make me break out Make me break out I don't want to look like that x2 I don't want to look like that Yeah Yeah I don't want to look like that Break out Break out Break out Break out Go, go, go Chorus x 3
  3. Learn To Fly3:58
    vídeo del tema Learn To Fly
    Run and tell all of the angels This could take all night Think I need a devil to help me get things right Hook me up a new revolution Cause this one is a lie We sat around laughing and watched the last one die And I'm looking to the sky to save me Looking for a sign of life Looking for something to help me burn out bright I'm looking for a complication Looking cause I'm tired of lying Make my way back home when I learn to fly I think I'm done nursing patience It couldn't wait one night I'd give it all away if you give me one last try We'll live happily ever trapped if you just save my life Run and tell the angels that everything is alright... I'm looking to the sky to save me Looking for a sign of life Looking for something to help me burn out bright I'm looking for a complication Looking cause I'm tired of trying Make my way back home when I learn to fly Make my way back home when I learn to Fly along with me, I can't quite make it alone Try to make this life my own Fly along with me, I can't quite make it alone Try to make this life my own I'm looking to the sky to save me Looking for a sign of life (sign of life) Looking for something to help me burn out bright I'm looking for a complication Looking cause I'm tired of trying (tired of trying) Make my way back home when I learn to And I'm looking to the sky to save me Looking for a sign of life (sign of life) Looking for something to help me burn out bright I'm looking for a complication Looking cause I'm tired of trying Make my way back home when I learn to fly Make my way back home when I learn to fly Make my way back home when I learn to (Learn to, learn to, learn, to learn to)
  4. Gimme Stitches3:42

    Letra

    I can be your right of way So we can get out of here I'll always be the one who runs from everyone Cause everyone's just too weird Sink with someone tied to me I'm making you volunteer Another one has come and gone They crawl along, make them disappear Dress me up in stitches it's now or never Tired of wearing black and blue Dress me up in stitches it's now or never Dying to get my blood on you Blood on you Take another stab at me, I promise in time I'll heal But yesterday went on and on a bit too long I waited out on High Street There's nothing to find out here Another day has come and gone They crawl along, wasting all these years Dress me up in stitches it's now or never Tired of wearing black and blue Dress me up in stitches it's now or never Dying to get my blood on you How can you go on when you're murdering someone Killing me like you do Gimme stitches now or never Gimme stitches now or never Gimme stitches now or never Blood on you Blood on you Blood on you Blood on you Blood on you Blood on you Dress me up in stitches it's now or never Tired of wearing black and blue Dress me up in stitches it's now or never Dying to get my blood on you How can you go on when you're murdering someone Killing me like you do Gimme stitches now or never Gimme stitches now or never Gimme stitches now or never Gimme stitches now or never Blood on you

  9. Headwires4:38

    Letra

    Have you been headwired Were you satisfied Did it free the feelings in your spine Sleeping way inside all this time Will you meet your mind where the night collides Will you greet yourself when the sun arrives I'll just stay behind, I've met mine Better than a bullet being fired Tangled in your headwires now Better than a bullet being fired Tangled in your headwires Headwires now Help you feed the wires when your head unwinds And if our headlines become entwined You can have all mine, I'll be fine There's a reason why keeping me alive There's a cure in me that I wish were mine As long as I can fight, I'll survive Tangled in your headwires now Better than a bullet being fired Tangled in your headwires Stationed on the wire, one day I'll let go Tell them all hello Tell them all hello Stationed on the wire, one day I'll let go Tell them all hello Tell them all hello The sun is on Arlandria The sun is on Arlandria, headwires The sun is on Arlandria The sun is on Arlandria, headwires The sun is on Arlandria
