Amàlia Hoje es un proyecto del grupo Hoje que trata de darle un enfoque moderno a los fados de la famosa Amàlia Rodrigues. Portugueses? Fados? Amália Rodrigues? Si, si, amigüitos, lo que oís. Tuve la oportunidad de ir a un concierto de ellos hace un par de semanas y quede impresionado. Que no os asuste el idioma, es lo de menos para la música. Tampoco temáis a los fados, a mi tampoco me gustan, pero de fado ya poco queda en las nuevas versiones de los Hoje.

Lo dicho, toda una grata sorpresa. Como supongo que nadie los conocerá, os dejo aquí el álbum, con su caratula y con sus letra en cada MP3, como debe de ser, que si no luego queda feísimo en el iPhone. Si os gustan, id a un concierto de ellos, porque son muy buenos. Incluso podéis comprar el CD (como hicimos nosotros), pero eso ya es más opcional

So, of course, you were supposed to call me tonight
you were supposed to call me tonight
we would have gone to the cinema
and, after, to the restaurant, the one you like in your street

we would have slept together, have a nice breakfast together
and then a walk in a park together, how beautiful, and then
you would have said “i love you” in the cutest place on earth
where some butterflies are dancing with the fairies

i would have waited like a week or two
but you never tried to reach me
no, you never called me back
you were dating that bleach-blonde girl
if i find her, i swear, i swear…

i’ll kill her, i’ll kill her
she stole my future, she broke my dream
i’ll kill her, i’ll kill her
she stole my future when she took you away

i would have met your friends, we would have had a drink or two
they would have liked me, ’cause sometimes i’m funny
i would have met your dad, i would have met your mum
she would have said “please, can you make some beautiful babies?”

so we would have had a boy called tom and a girl called susan, born in japan

i thought it was a love story, but you don’t want to get involved
i thought it was a love story, but you’re not ready for that …

me neither. i’ll kill her
she stole my future, she broke my dream
i’ll kill her, i’ll kill her
she stole my future when she took you away

she’s a bitch you know, all she’s got is blondeness
not even tenderness, yeah, she’s clever...less
she’ll dump your arse for a model called brendan
he will pay for beautiful surgery ’cause he’s full of money

i would have waited like a week or two
but you never tried to reach me
no, you never called me back
you were dating that bleach-blonde girl
if i find her, you know, i swear, i swear, i swear…

i’ll kill her, i’ll kill her
she stole my future, she broke my dream
i’ll kill her, i’ll kill her
she stole my future when she took you away

i’ll kill her, i’ll kill her
she stole my future, she broke my dream
i’ll kill her, i’ll kill her
she stole my future when she took you away

man, I told you, you know
if I find her, I really, I'm, I kill her for real
is that for sure, you have to know
I mean, you know, I can do it
I mean, I kill her
