Quando tinha quinze anos, conheci uma banda de música chamada Candlebox. Eles tem uma mistura única de heavy metal com blues. Pensei que dava pra escrever ouvindo as músicas deles, mas... Não dá pra prestar atenção em mais nada.Nunca nenhuma namorada gostou deles (ciúme?). O vocalista não é mulher, mas tem um agudo de quebrar vidraças, e um grito de dar dor de ouvido (os dos outros). Cada música tem uma melodia diferente, única – mas é sempre o mesmo vocalista, o que as torna uma grande família de letras que invadem minha cabeça e meu coração.Eles não são daquelas bandas que saem por aí se embebedando, se drogando e fazendo besteiras. Na verdade até fizeram uma música repudiando drogas. Surgiram em Seattle em 1991, quase no mesmo cenário que Nirvana, Alice In Chains e Pearl Jam, só que um pouco mais “nova”.A verdade é que as suas músicas me acompanharam por muito tempo de minha história. Fizeram três discos, mas em 1999 eles terminaram a banca e cada um seguiu seu destino num ambiente underground demais pra que eu conseguisse sequer uma mp3 das suas novas bandas. Aí vai uma lista das músicas mais marcantes para quem quiser conhecer:Candlebox:- Don’t You- You- Far Behind- Rain- Cover MeLucy:- Simple Lessons- Drowned- Become (to tell)- BUtterfly- It’s Amazing- Bothered- UnderstandingHappy Pills:- 10,000 Horses- A Stone's Throw Away- Breakaway- It's Alright- SometimesQuando a banda terminou, eu fiquei muito triste. Não haveria músicas novas do Candlebox. Uns meses atrás entrei no site deles, depois de muito tempo sem fazer isso – e para minha surpresa – eles estavam de volta! Fizeram um álbum de um show ao vivo, e em 2008 fizeram outro só com músicas inéditas. Fiquei muito feliz, o novo álbum é perfeito!Into the Sun- Stand- Surrendering- Into The Sun- Miss You- How Does It Feel*- A Kiss Before Me- Breathe Me In* - Intro- Breathe Me In*- Lover (Come Back To Me)* Estado de Perfeição da ArteYou came out of nowhere, and our eyes collideLike a wall collapsing, a crushing tideAnd I saw you laughing, and I saw your smileIt made me anxious baby, it made me

thank youFor all that you've doneThe mess you've madeYour allegationsI don't want to blame youBut I need to crackdownYou're essential to the processAnd the essence of my breakdownI can't wait to sell you, to the village of foolsYou're a violent hangover, malicious, so cruelCould you keep it secret?You couldn't lock it up tightYou're a sea of informationThat's spilling out from all sidesI think I might find youA little clumsy and aloofAtop a mountain of sandUnhinged in untruthsHow does it feel, upon your throne?How does it feel, to be all alone?How does it feel, to crawl so low?You're the king of nothing, you're just a showHow does it feel?I will give you no wordsYes, I choose a mute stanceIt's hard enough to engageThe smart as well as the assYou couldn't keep it secretYou couldn't lock it up tightCause you're a sea of informationThat's bleeding out of the liesHow does it feel, upon your throne?How does it feel, to be all alone?How does it feel, to crawl so low?You're the king of nothing, you're just a showHow does it feel?One might deceive, one might alignOne more disease, yeah, the great divide!How does it feel, to be on your own?You are the seed, welcome to the showWelcome to the showWelcome to the showWelcome to the showWelcome to the showHow does it feel?Welcome to the showHow does it feel?/ How Does it Feel
