Lords of Dogtown (EUA, 2005) - Soundtrack

Esta é a trilha sonora de "Os Reis de Dogtown" ou "Lords of Dogtown" (EUA, 2005), o longa-metragem dirigido por Catherine Hardwicke, que se passa na famosa praia de Venice, Califórnia, nos anos 70, sobre a história de um grupo de rapazes responsável por uma transformação no comportamento jovem. O filme só interessa a quem gosta muito de skate. No elenco também está  Heath Ledger.
O som vai do rock ao punk, mas como em quase toda trilha sonora pode-se descartar algumas músicas, escolhi as que acho melhores.
01 Nazareth - Hair of the dog
02 Sweet - Fox on the run
03 Joe Walsh - Turn to stone
04 The Allman Brothers Band - One way out
05 Deep Purple - Space truckin'
06 Black Sabbath - Iron man
07 Sparklehorse - Wish you were here

Eugène Emmanuel Amaury Pineux Duval (Montrouge, le 16 avril 1808 - Paris, le 25 décembre 1885) plus connu sous le pseudonyme d'Amaury Duval est un peintre français. C'est l'un des premiers élèves à entrer dans l'atelier du maître, Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres.
En 1829, il fait partie de la commission d'artistes et de savant désignée par Charles X pour aller en Grèce lors de l'Expédition de Morée, comme dessinateur dans la section archéologie.
Il expose la première fois au salon de 1833 en présentant plusieurs portraits dont la Dame verte (qui n'a pas été retrouvé) et son Autoportrait que l'on peut voir au musée des Beaux-Arts de Rennes.
De 1834 à 1836, il effectue un long voyage en Italie, à Florence puis à Rome et à Naples où il découvre avec bonheur l'art de la Renaissance italienne.
De retour en France, il participe aux commandes de décorations d'églises que le gouvernement de Louis-Philippe puis de Napoléon III distribuaient aux artistes : la chapelle Sainte Philomène à l'église Saint-Merry (1840-1844), la chapelle de la vierge à Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois, à Paris (1844-1846) puis l'église paroissiale de Saint-Germain-en-Laye (1849-1856).
On retrouve dans la peinture d'Amaury Duval la forte influence de Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres.

Eugène Emmanuel Amaury Pineux Duval (Montrouge, 16 April 1808 - Paris, 25 December 1885), better known by the pseudonym Amaury Duval, was a French painter.
One of the first students in Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres's studio (a strong influence on all Duval's works), Duval took part in the 1829 artists' and scholars' expedition sent by Charles X of France to Greece as the Morea Expedition to produce its archaeological drawings. He first exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1833 with many portraits such as his Green lady (no longer extant) and his Self-portrait (still to be seen in the musée des Beaux-Arts de Rennes). From 1834 to 1836 he took a long Grand Tour to Florence, Rome then Naples, where he discovered Italian Renaissance art. On returning to France he was one of the artists commissioned to decorate churches by the government of Louis-Philippe then Napoleon III - the Sainte Philomène chapel at the église Saint-Merry (1840-1844), the chapel of the virgin at Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois, at Paris (1844-1846) then the parish church of Saint-Germain-en-Laye (1849-1856).

Hôtel Costes - Vol. 9

Volume 9 da série Hôtel Costes, desta vez menos disco e voltado para um jazz/lounge parisiense. Sentimos falta de uma voz brasileira em alguma das canções, como em outros álbuns, mas excelente mesmo assim.

La sortie d'une compilation Hôtel Costes est toujours un événement unique. Véritable collection musicale, la série Hôtel Costes est plus que jamais la référence du luxe et du raffinement Parisien. Avec huit volumes, ainsi qu'un best of sorti fin 2004, la série a déjà dépassé le seuil des 2,2 millions d'exemplaires vendus dans le Monde. Pour ce neuvième volume, Stéphane Pompougnac propose un mix de titres inédits dans une ambiance toujours aussi éclectique et intimiste.

It's less disco and more Parisian lounge/jazz. With this mix Pompougnac goes back to the roots and re-introduces a richer Paris lounge flair, abandoning the more disco-hipster types of rhythms and themes. This may be in response to an exploding market of global lounge music from the frequent flyer series to the destination lounge sets. The album reestablishes Pompougnac as one of the original godfathers of lounge, his picks and his mixing are unique and impeccable. A great album.

Toni Braxton - Un-break my heart

São 7 versões para Un-break my heart, grande sucesso de 1996.

Aqui Ici Here



Don´t leave me in all this pain
Don't leave me out in the rain
Come back and bring back my smile
Come and take these tears away
I need your arms to hold me now
The nights are so unkind
Bring back those nights when I held you beside me

Un-break my heart
Say you'll love me again
Un-do this hurt you caused
When you walked out the door
And walked outta my life
Un-cry these tears
I cried so many nights
Un-break my heart, my heart

Take back that sad word good-bye
Bring back the joy to my life
Don't leave me here with these tears
Come and kiss this pain away
I can't forget the day you left
Time is so unkind
And life is so cruel without you here beside me

Ohh, oh
Don't leave me in all this pain
Don't leave me out in the rain
Bring back the nights when I held you beside me

Un-break my
Un-break my heart, oh baby
Come back and say you love me
Un-break my heart
Sweet darlin'
Without you I just can't go on
Can't go on

The Meters - The Best Of


The Meters foi uma banda funk americana, fundada em New Orleans e liderada por Art Neville (que junto com os irmãos Aaron Neville, Charles Neville e Cyril Neville formaram a lendária The Neville Brothers). Atuando de 1965 até 1977, nunca alcançaram grande sucesso popular, embora sejam considerados um dos progenitores da funk Music.

This is The Best of the Meters. Many are familiar with the gritty, down home Louisiana funk of The Meters, but for those who aren't, this great compilation covers the years 1971 - 1975 and includes classics like "Just Kissed My Baby", which was sampled by Public Enemy on their first LP.

MELHOR FILME
THE BROADWAY MELODY 



The Broadway Melody (Melodia na Broadway (título no Brasil) ou A Melodia da Broadway (título em Portugal)) é um dos primeiros filmes musicais da história do cinema, dirigido por Harry Beaumont e lançado nos Estados Unidos da América em 1 de fevereiro de 1929. O roteiro é de Norman Houston e James Gleason, baseados em história original de Edmund Goulding.
Foi interpretado por Anita Page, Bessie Love, Charles King, Jed Prouty e Ken Thomson, entre outros.
A história centra-se nas irmãs Mahoney - Hank (Bessie Love) e Queenie (Anita Page) - uma dupla de atrizes que vai para a Broadway tentar a sua sorte. Hank namora com Eddie (Charles King), um ator da Broadway que se vai apaixonar pela irmã que, por sua vez, é cortejada por Jock Warriner (Ken Thomson), um membro da alta sociedade de Nova Iorque. Entretanto, demora algum tempo até que Queenie perceba que é apenas um brinquedo para Jock, assim como leva algum tempo até que Hank perceba que o namorado está apaixonado pela irmã.
Foi o primeiro filme integralmente sonoro da MGM. Venceu o Oscar de Melhor Filme e foi nomeado para mais dois: Melhor Realizador e Melhor Atriz (Bessie Love).

Broadway Melody (The Broadway Melody) - également appelé Amours de danseuses - est un film musical américain de Harry Beaumont, sorti en 1929.
Il s'agit du premier long métrage entièrement parlant. Le film a reçu l'Oscar du meilleur film lors de la 2e cérémonie des Oscars en avril 1930.
Ce film musical entièrement parlant est considérée comme le symbole de la fin de l'âge d'or du cinéma muet, qui avait débuté en 1910 et prendra fin en 1930.
Un couple de danseurs venus rendre service à une amie productrice en détresse voit leur duo voler en éclats par un imbroglio amoureux.

The Broadway Melody is a 1929 American musical film and the first sound film to win an Academy Award for Best Picture. It was one of the first musicals to feature a Technicolor sequence, which sparked the trend of color being used in a flurry of musicals that would hit the screens in 1929-1930. Today the Technicolor sequence is presumed lost and only a black and white copy survives in the complete film. The film was the first musical released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and was Hollywood's first all-talking musical.
The film was written by Norman Houston and James Gleason from a story by Edmund Goulding, and directed by Harry Beaumont. Original music was written by Arthur Freed and Nacio Herb Brown, including the popular hit "You Were Meant For Me". The George M. Cohan classic "Give My Regards To Broadway" was also given its talkie debut in the film. Bessie Love was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance.
The plot involves the romances of musical comedy stars, set against the backstage hubbub of a Broadway revue. Anita Page and Bessie Love play a vaudeville sister act who have come to New York for their big break on Broadway. Charles King plays the song-and-dance man whose affection for one sister (Harriet alias Hank) is supplanted by his growing love for the younger, more beautiful sister (Queenie). Queenie tries to protect her sister and derail the love triangle by dating a wealthy but unscrupulous "stage door Johnny."
