Músicas de Natal

Há duas músicas que gosto particularmente de ouvir nesta altura e que me ajudam a fortificar o espírito de Natal. Não estou a falar do Jingle Bells, nem daquela do Coro de Santo Amaro de Oeiras que há anos animava, à exaustão, a Baixa na quadra natalícia - a todos um bom natal, a todos um bom natal, desejo um bom natal, para todos vós...

Gosto mesmo é destas duas:

I’m driving home for christmas

Oh, I can’t wait to see those faces

I’m driving home for christmas, yea

Well I’m moving down that line

And it’s been so long

But I will be there

I sing this song

To pass the time away

Driving in my car

Driving home for christmas

(...)

So I sing for you

Though you can’t hear me

When I get trough

And feel you near me

I am driving home for christmas

Driving home for christmas

With a thousand memories

(...)

Chris Rea

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart

But the very next day you gave it away

This year, to save me from tears

I'll give it to someone special

(...)

I wrapped it up and sent it

With a note saying "I love you", I meant it

Now I know what a fool I've been

But if you kissed me now,

I know you'd fool me again

(...)

George Michael and Wham
