MusicBoxFoi lançado esta semana o MusicBox do grupo PT.

Acabadinho de lançar e para mim a melhor Web App lançada este ano em Portugal. Tem todo o potencial para completamente revolucionar o mercado da música e trazer alguma ordem ao caos da pirataria.

O que é?
Um serviço que permite escutar (internet stream) legal de milhares de músicas via computador, TV meo, telemóvel.
Permite ainda descarregar legalmente músicas (10 músicas por mês no pacote mensal).

Quanto custa?
Para clientes PT 4.99€/mês
Outros 6.99€/mês

Neste momento o serviço é grátis por 3 meses para clientes meo, sapo, tmn.

Estou neste momento a experimentar o serviço e embora ainda não tenha testado todas as funcionalidades para mim é a Web App Portuguesa do Ano.

O potencial está lá todo. Este serviço resolve um problema real dos utilizadores: Ouvir e descarregar música, simples, legalmente e por um preço acessível.

Desde que o catálogo de músicas seja vasto, o preço se mantenha e as aplicações funcionem sem problemas de maior este serviço tem tudo para ser uma verdadeira revolução na forma que os Portugueses ouvem música.

Coco Rosie – Gallows

I never heard of this band before. But this video is one of the most amazing music videos I have ever seen.

The meaning of the song still puzzles me and the best answer I found was by DreamMasquerade @ songmeanings.net:

I don’t know the circumstances, but it sounds to me like a group of some sort went to take a man to punish him with death for something (maybe he’s a criminal or they think he is, anyways). His daughters (or schizophrenic daughter) saw them taking him away and started screaming, and the people found out they were his daughters so they shot them. the talk about the tree is I think just their ghosts remaining in the trees (maybe they lived in a forest)
it makes me think of early america, perhaps salem, personally. something about cocorosie always says witchcraft XD

I smile when I’m angry, I cheat and I lie. I do what I have to do to get by

Leonard Cohen – In My Secret Life

I saw you this morning.
You were moving so fast.
Can’t seem to loosen my grip
On the past.
And I miss you so much.
There’s no one in sight.
And we’re still making love
In My Secret Life.

I smile when I’m angry.
I cheat and I lie.
I do what I have to do
To get by.
But I know what is wrong,
And I know what is right.
And I’d die for the truth
In My Secret Life.

Hold on, hold on, my brother.
My sister, hold on tight.
I finally got my orders.
I’ll be marching through the morning,
Marching through the night,
Moving cross the borders
Of My Secret Life.

Looked through the paper.
Makes you want to cry.
Nobody cares if the people
Live or die.
And the dealer wants you thinking
That it’s either black or white.
Thank God it’s not that simple
In My Secret Life.

I bite my lip.
I buy what I’m told:
From the latest hit,
To the wisdom of old.
But I’m always alone.
And my heart is like ice.
And it’s crowded and cold
In My Secret Life.

I don’t have to sell my soul

The Cure – Plainsong

“i think it’s dark and it looks like rain” you said
“and the wind is blowing like it’s the end of the
world” you said “and it’s so cold it’s like the
cold if you were dead” and then you smiled for
a second.

“i think i’m old and i’m feeling pain” you said
“and it’s all running out like it’s the end of the
world” you said “and it’s so cold it’s like the
cold if you were dead” and then you smiled for
a second

sometimes you make me feel like i’m living at
the edge of the world like i’m living at the edge
of the world “it’s just the way i smile” you said

U2 – Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own

Tough, you think you’ve got the stuff
You’re telling me and anyone
You’re hard enough

You don’t have to put up a fight
You don’t have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it alone

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

We fight all the time
You and I… that’s alright
We’re the same soul
I don’t need… I don’t need to hear you say
That if we weren’t so alike
You’d like me a whole lot more

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it alone

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

I know that we don’t talk
I’m sick of it all
Can you hear me when I Sing,
you’re the reason I sing
You’re the reason why the opera is in me

Where are we now?
I’ve got to let you know
A house still doesn’t make a home
Don’t leave me here alone

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
Sometimes you can’t make it
The best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
