FOO FIGHTERS...

I feel like sharing these two songs from Foo Fighters, in an acoustic version of each ot them...plus Foo Fighter is always a winner choice, i hope you will enjoy them as much as i do...plain and simple, i love this acoustic versions, really intense, the raw vocals, really deep, really sincere...

Foo Fighters - Everlong


(the chorus...)
And I wonder
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang


Foo Fighters - Best of you


(few lyrics...)
"Has someone taken your faith?
Its real, the pain you feel
The life, the love you'd die to heal
The hope that starts the broken hearts
You trust, you must
Confess

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?"

EUROPEAN BJJ CHAMPIONSHIP IN LISBON

-The bronze medal, so proud and happy-
Last month i went to Lisbon for their anual European Bjj Championship, probably the most important tornament in Europe with the biggest names and the higher level on the mats. I have to say it was an amazing experience, thank to my team mates, friends and specially to Yan Cabral, my master.

We went there and did a great perfomance, gold medals for our girls in the team and im super happy to share with you guys that i got my first Bronze Medal, i made 3rd in an important tournament such is this one. I made it 3rd on my Blue belt weightclass in the Master division.
I did 5 fights in total, felt great on the mat, calm and alive, choked some dudes out and lost by points to a friend. So its a new big step for me and my brazilian jiu jitsu "career"... some pics from Lisbon.

SKUNK ANANSIE


Last week i had the pleasure to go to the Skunk Anansie`s show, here in Barcelona. It was a birthday present from a good friend who bought the tickets long time ago. Oh man!! the show was amazing, Skin's voice is unreal, and intense non stop show that made all the crowd crazy and you could feel the amazing vibe.


If you don't know the band i suggest you to check them out right now...it's not a new band, i liked them back in the 90's but i even like them more now. Their new album is beyond solid, every single song is worth it.

Here are video from their new record...
Enjoy!

-KEEPERS OF THE FAITH-

I haven't been to any hc shows for long time...i still listen to my good old tunes, but most of the new bands are boring and shows here suck big time. But i guess there is this band still going on that is trying to bring some of the old good spirit back that brings good memories and makes me shake from my chair...

So tomorrow im going to see TERROR once again, but this time should be better as they are coming with FIRST BLOOD and with the new record "Keepers of the Faith", which hits my player over and over and the lyrics get my blood tight like the old days...




TERROR - Keepers of the faith


First time I felt alive
I heard her voice and I knew her pain and strife
I roamed alone, death by my side
Nothing seemed right 'til you came into my life
I grabbed a hold to learn and grow
It was destined that you and I collide
My everything, my sacrifice
And I'll defend you 'til the day I die

Keepers of the faith
I will defend your name
Only true believers remain
The blood, the sweat we gave
Through all my joys and pains
You can't deny the keepers of the faith


I reach for you in troubled times
You spoke to me and made everything alright
I live through you, I'm by your side
It's safe to say that you truly saved my life

Keepers of the faith
I will defend your name
Only true believers remain
The blood, the sweat we gave
Through all my joys and pains
You can't deny the keepers of the faith

I live through you, I'm by your side
It's safe to say that you truly saved my life
I live through you, I'm by your side
It's safe to say that you truly saved my life
My everything, my sacrifice
And I'll defend you until the day I fucking die

Keepers of the faith
I will defend your name
Only true believers remain
The blood, the sweat we gave
Through all my joys and pains
You can't deny the keepers of the faith

Keepers of the faith
Only true believers remain
All the blood, the sweat we gave
You can't deny we're the keepers of the faith
Keepers of the faith
