"Bésala" Sung by Michael Cruz

Percusión,
Cuerdas,
Viento,
Letra.

Ella está ahí sentada frente a ti.
No te ha dicho nada aún pero algo te atrae.
Sin saber por qué te mueres por tratar
De darle un beso ya.
Sí, la quieres, sí, la quieres, mírala,
Mírala y ya verás, no hay que preguntarle.
No hay que decir, no hay nada que decir,
Ahora bésala.
Canten conmigo.

Sha la la la la la ¿qué pasó?
Él no se atrevió y no la besará.
Sha la la la la qué horror,
Qué lástima me da ya que la perderá.

El momento es en esta laguna azul,
Pero no esperes más, mañana no puedes.
No ha dicho nada y no lo hará,
Si no la besas ya.
Sha la la la la no hay por qué temer,
No iba a comer, ahora bésala.
Sha la la la la la sin dudar,
No lo evites más, ahora bésala.
Sha la la la la la por favor,
Escucha la canción, ahora bésala.
Sha la la la la la es mejor,
Que te decidas ya, ahora bésala.
Bésala.
Bésala.
Bésala.
Bésala.

"Bajo El Mar" sung by Michael Cruz

Tú crees que en otros lagos las algas más verdes son.
Y sueñas con ir arriba, ¡qué gran equivocación!
¿No ves que tu propio mundo no tiene comparación?
¿Qué puede haber allá fuera que causa tal emoción?

Bajo el mar, bajo el mar,
Vives contenta, siendo sirena eres feliz.
Sé que trabajan sin parar y bajo el sol para variar,
Mientras nosotros siempre flotamos,
Bajo el mar.

Los peces son muy felices, aquí tienen libertad.
Los peces allí están tristes, sus casas son de cristal.
La vida de nuestros peces muy larga no suele ser,
Si al dueño le apetece, a mí me van a comer.

Bajo el mar, bajo el mar,
Nadie nos fríe ni nos cocina en la sartén.
Si no te quieres alinear bajo el mar te quedarás,
Y sin problemas entre burbujas.
Tú vivirás
Bajo el mar, bajo el mar,
Hay siempre ritmo en nuestro mundo al natural.
La manta-raya tocará, el esturión se unirá,
Siempre hay ritmo, ritmo marino,
Bajo el mar.
Oye la flauta, oye el arpa,
Al contrabajo ponle atención.
Verás la trompetas y el tambor,
Disfruta de tu canción, sí.
Con la marimba y el violín,
Las truchas volteando, el otro cantando,
Y sin olvidar los del clarín,
Que empiece la función.

Sí, bajo el mar, bajo el mar,
Hay bailarinas, son las sardinas, ven a bailar.
¿Para qué quieres explorar si nuestra banda va a tocar?
Hay castañuelas, son las almejas, bajo el mar.
Y las babosas so tan hocosas, bajo el mar.
El caracol es saxofonista,
Y las burbujas llenan la pista,
Para que bailes en esta fiesta,
Bajo el mar.

We're BAAAAACK!!

Alright, remember La Oficina? The intro? Well, this is a different episode. A better one. In my opinion.

Basically, for a spanish oral project, we decided to write an original script for the office (credit Mike B), translate it into spanish (credit the rest of us), and then shoot it.

A little translation thing:
Sc. 1 - Andy Bernard and Michael Scott discussing facebook, intruded by Toby Flenderson
Sc. 2 - Dwight Schrute talking with Toby about his Pez collection
Sc. 3 - Toby confronting Andy about his facebook habits at work
Sc. 4 - Dwight confronting Michael on what facebook is
Sc. 5 - Andy talking with Jim Halpert about Dwight

Lyrics:

Tell me the duck story...

A duck walked up to a lemonade stand and he said to the man running the stand:

Hey! got any grapes?

The man said:

No we just sell lemonade. It's cold and its fresh and it's all home made. Can I sell you glass?

The duck said:

I'll pass.

Then he waddled away.

'Til the very next day...

When the duck walked up to the lemonade stand and he said to the man that was running the stand:

Hey! You got any grapes?

The man said:

No, like I said yesterday, we just sell lemonade okay? Why not give it a try?

The duck said:

Goodbye.

Then he waddled away, waddle, waddle. (x3)

'Til the very next day...

When the duck walked up to the lemonade stand
And he said to the man running the stand:

Hey! You got any grapes?

The man said:

Look, this is getting old. I mean, Lemonades all we've ever sold. Why not give it a go?

The duck said:

How 'bout no.

Then he waddled away, waddle, waddle. The he waddled away, waddle, waddle, waddle. Then he waddled away, waddle, waddle.

"Til the very next day...

When the duck walked up to the lemonade stand
and he said to the man running the stand:

Hey! You got any grapes?

The man said:

THAT'S IT! If you don't stay away,duck, I'll glue you to a tree and leave you there all day, stuck. So don't get to close!

The duck said:

Adios.

Then he waddled away, waddle, waddle. Then he waddled away, waddle, waddle, waddle. Then he waddled away, waddle, waddle.

"Til the very next day...

When the duck walked up to the lemonade stand and he said to the man running the stand:

Hey! You got any glue?

What?

You got any glue?

No, why would I...Oh!

Then one more question for you. Got any grapes?

And the man just stopped. Then he started to smile. He started to laugh. He laughed for a while. He said:

Come on duck, let's walk to the store. I'll buy you some grapes so you won't have to ask anymore.

So they walked to the store and the man bought some grapes. He gave one to the duck and the duck said:

Hmm...No thanks. But you know what sounds good? It would make my day. Do you think this store, do you think this store, do you think this store, has any lemonade?

Then he waddled away, waddle, waddle.Then he waddled away, waddle, waddle.

Hey, youtube viewers, please help me by subscribing to my friend's youtube page after you watch this video. The video has nothing relating to Bella's Lullabuy, but I'm pretty sure it will have some meaning to you after you watch it. Link Below. Thank you all.

Please take a listen at this person's version of Bella' Lullaby. I really enjoyed listening to her playing and hope you will too.

She also has music sheets in her video description. =)

Carter's Notes

"Bella's Lullaby," as it appears in this film, was not written to be a lullaby but to speak of love - ecstatic, tormented love.

"And so this unnamed tune became Bellas Lullaby. It's worth noting, though, that neither Catherine nor I ever called it that. We always referred to this tune as the "Love Theme" and I think it makes much more sense if you think of it this way. It's more complex and emotional than any lullaby I've ever heard."

"My concern, as a composer, is to make the film as a whole compelling, dramatic, emotional and cinematic. But in this case other extraneous concerns quickly started to pile on, all driven by the fans of the book. The piano scene was added because Summit realized fans wanted to hear Edward play the melody referred to as "Bella's Lullaby," and each of those fans has their own idea of the tune. Because I hadn't started writing yet there was a musical vacuum into which other music started to be pulled. Rob improvised a tune for the shoot. Matthew Bellamy, of Muse, sent in his idea of "Bella's Lullaby." And countless readers and musicians sent in their own ideas or posted them on the internet. None of this made my job easier."

"...I think part of the problem was that Catherine and I saw this as Bella and Edward's "Love Theme" whereas he saw it as "Bella's Lullaby." And indeed, for the 30 seconds during which Edward is playing piano it is the "Lullaby." But the theme also has to play the romance that drives the story, and I thought that was a much more important role."


U.S. Film Release: November 21, 2008

The sheet music for "Bella's Lullaby" will probably be released before the end of the year. When more is known, it will be listed here(Carter Burwell's website).

Bella' Lullaby by Carter Burwell (Official) Piano Version. I finally got down almsot all of the notes. Thank you Carter for responding to my email earlier today. It has given me the inspiration to figure out the notes for your piece.

No, I am sorry, I do not have the music sheet for the song. I played the entire song by ear and some parts with the help of Carter Burwell's notes on his website.
