Summer Wine

Summer Wine es una canción del cantante y compositor estadounidense Lee Hazlewood en 1966 y que fue interpretada por primera vez por el propio Lee junto a Suzi Jane Hokom pero que se hizo popular al año siguiente de la mano de Lee, pero en esta ocasión junto a la cantante estadounidense Nancy Sinatra, convirtiéndose en todo un éxito.
El tema ha tenido a lo largo de los años varias versiones, entre las que se encuentran las de Demis Roussos, la de Lana del Rey junto a Barrie-James O´Neill, la de Conchita  Wurst o la que hicieron en 2002 la banda irlandesa The Corrs junto a Bono, vocalista de U2 para el álbum de los hermanos Corrs que llevó por título VH1 Presents: The Corrs, Live in Dublin.





Strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things

I walked in town on silver spurs that jingled to
And sang song that I had only sang to just a few
She saw my silver spurs and said
Let's pass some time
And I will give to you summer wine

Oh-oh summer wine

Strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time
And I will give to you summer wine

Oh-oh summer wine

My eyes grew heavy and my lips they could not speak
I tried to get up, but I couldn't find my feet
She reassured me with an unfamiliar line
And then she gave to me more summer wine

Oh-oh summer wine

Strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time
And I will give to you summer wine

Oh-oh summer wine

When we woke up the sun was shining in our eyes
Our silver spurs were gone my head felt twice its size
Who took the silver spurs, a dollar and a dime
And left us cravin' for more summer wine

Oh-oh summer wine
Oh-oh Oh-oh Oh-oh Oh-oh

These Boots Are Made for Walkin'

These Boots Are Made for Walkin´ es un clásico de la década de los 60, que fue compuesta por Lee Hazlewood en 1966 expresamente para Nancy Sinatra, consiguiendo ser el mayor éxito de la cantante estadounidense. La canción ha tenido diversas versiones por diferentes artistas, pero el encanto que tiene la versión original no ha podido superarla nadie.




You keep saying you've got something for me
Something you call love, but confess
You've been messing where you shouldn't have been messing
And now someone else is getting all your best

These boots are made for walking, and that's just what they'll do
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you

You keep lying when you oughta be truthing
and you keep losing when you oughta not bet
you keep saming when you oughta be changing
Now what's right is right, but you ain't been right yet

These boots are made for walking, and that's just what they'll do
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you

You keep playing where you couldn't be playing
And you keep thinking that you'll never get burnt, Ha!
I just found me a brand new box of matches, yeah
And what he knows you ain't had time to learn

These boots are made for walking, and that's just what they'll do
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you

Are you ready boots? Start walking!

Somethin' Stupid

Somethin´ Stupid es una canción escrita por C. Carson Parks en 1966 y que fue grabada por primera vez por el propio autor junto a su esposa Gail Foote, aunque no sería hasta 1967 cuando Frank Sinatra la grabó junto a su hija Nancy Sinatra cuando consiguió el verdadero éxito y popularidad, siendo la versión más conocida entre todas las que se han hecho. Esta versión de Frank y Nancy apareció en el álbum del primero The World We Knew y pasó cuatro semanas en el número 1 de E.E.U.U. Posteriormente, en 2001, el cantante Robbie Williams grabó otra versión con la actriz Nicole Kidman, que aparece en el gran álbum del cantante británico, Swing When You´re Winning llegando a ser número 1 en distintos países. La verdad, cualquiera de las dos versiones es maravillosa, así que puedes elegir... o porque elegir, si puedes quedarte con las dos.
En 2011 y dentro de su álbum Antojos, Vol. 1&2, el músico y compositor español Caballero Reynaldo nos regala una original y fresca versión que seguro no deja a nadie indiferente... a mi me gusta y mucho.




I know I stand in line,
Until you think you have the time
To spend an evening with me

And if we go someplace to dance
I know that there's a chance
You won't be leaving with me

And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place
And have a drink or two
And then I go and spoil it all
By saying something stupid
Like: I love you

I can see it in your eyes
That you still despise the same old lines
You heard the night before

And though it's just a line to you
For me it's true
It never seemed so right before


I practice every day
To find some clever lines to say
To make the meaning come true

But then I think I'll wait
Until the evening gets late
That I'm alone with you

The time is right
Your perfume fills my head
The stars get red
And oh, the night's so blue

And then I go and spoil it all
By saying something stupid
Like: "I love you"

The time is right
Your perfume fills my head
The stars get red
And oh, the night's so blue

And then I go and spoil it all
By saying something stupid
Like: I love you

I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
