¿Es pecado compartir música por internet?

Hoy revisé este reportaje sobre el tema en 

http://www.taringa.net/posts/noticias/3110943/Compartir-m%C3%BAsica-por-Internet,-%C2%BF-pecado-capital.html.

He estado pensando al respecto. Si bien no es bueno robar música a las compañías discográficas, ellas no les pagan a los artistas lo que se merecen. Además, si no se bajara música por internet, las bandas no se promocionarían tanto, y no irían a los conciertos, que es donde los artistas reciben grandes entradas económicas.

Además.... no es ético cobrar 2 millones de dólares a una ama de casa por bajar música (ver última parte del artículo de Taringa!, en la parte de 'Gilberto Gil y Moby'. Para mi gusto, esto es más venganza que justicia.

Si son capaces de reclamar sus derechos, también deberían hacerse cargo de cumplir sus deberes con los artistas, o lo que debería ser ético para ellos, si al final los estudios no tendrían sentido si no se hiciera música.

Pasando a un tema más de lo nuestro... bajar música canuta x internet...

¿cuántos de nosotros lo hemos hecho?

¿Cuántos de los que fuimos al concierto de Hillsong teníamos discos originales al ir? Estando acá en Chile... pienso que muy pocos. Pero aún así el Arena Movistar se llenó. Y varios tb gastamos hartas lucas en discos, libros, DVDs y otros souvenires luego del concierto (el stand de ventas estaba lleno al final... menos mal fui entremedio del concierto a comprar XDDD).

¿Deberían los de Hillsong United dejar fuera a todos los que fuimos al concierto y no habíamos comprado ni un solo disco? 

¿Están haciendo la música para adorar a Dios, o para ganar plata?

Igual en sus derechos de autor sale que bajar los discos compartidos en internet viola sus derechos...

http://www.hillsongmusic.com/publishing/faq

Buscar "14. I HAVE FOUND YOUR ALBUMS AND VIDEOS ON A FILE SHARING WEB SITE / BIT TORRENT SITE. IS IT OK FOR ME TO DOWNLOAD YOUR ALBUM OR VIDEO FROM THERE?"

¿Qué hacer? 

Tal vez comprar el disco bajado en cuanto se pueda si te gustó, o si no borrarlo.

¿Qué opinan al respecto?

Más discusión sobre el temilla de la piratería está en esta página, que es donde saqué la foto.

Baja tus Armas

Pensando en la publicación de David Menares ("A veces pienso..."), pensaba en cuan horrible es cuando alguien cercano y cristiano te daña, y te deja paralizado... sin poder confiar más, poder abrirse... (por eso la gran pausa en mis publicaciones acá), quedándose atrapado en la amargura y la decepción... un proceso difícil, porque el que más pierde es uno mismo.

Esta canción muestra lo que se podría decir que ha sido mi proceso de vuelta a la confianza y la sanidad. Al final, todo el dolor abrió grietas que dejaron entrar la verdad a mi corazón.

Armas (Traducción mía) (<- video acá) The Long Fall Back To Earth
por Jars of Clay

Lyrics:

Aleluya, podemos finalmente oir
Es un milagro sentir por lo menos algo
Cosas que plantamos en los peores días del año Things we planted on the worst days of the year
Crecieron a dedos que desgarraron la alegría
Y dejaron nuestras espaldas contra el muro

Baja tus armas
Baja tus armas
No hay enemigos frente tuyo

Aleluya, podemos finalmente oir
Cómo la amargura te hacía moretones en la piel How the bitterness was bruising on our skin
No nos dimos cuenta que la gracia casi se había agotado
Aún nos venimos abajo, y las grietas en nuestros corazones dejan que penetre la verdad.


Acá va en inglés.

Weapons

The Long Fall Back To Earth
by Jars of Clay

Lyrics:

Hallelujah, we can finally hear
It’s a miracle we feel anything at all
Things we planted on the worst days of the year
Grew to fingers that rip at the joy
And set our backs against the wall

Lay your weapons down
Lay your weapons down
There are no enemies in front of you

Hallelujah, we can finally see
How the bitterness was bruising on our skin
We didn’t notice that grace had run so thin
Till we’re falling apart and the cracks in our hearts let the truth sink in

Behind the Song:
DAN HASELTINE: “I was watching a show on the Sundance channel called Iconoclasts, where comedian Dave Chapelle was asking poet Maya Angelou about growing up in the civil rights movement -- and what it meant to her to have experienced the marginalization of who she was based on her color. Chapelle asked Angelou if it had made her angry. And Angelou said, “Absolutely.” But when it comes to anger, she said, you need to write it, and speak it, and dance it, and sing it, and paint it, and sculpt it. Because if you don’t, she warned, it becomes bitterness -- a cancer that eats away at your heart and soul and passion. So that's where ‘Weapons’ came from. It sounds like an anti-war song -- and maybe it is -- but not in the traditional context.”

CHARLIE LOWELL: “I love starting a record off with ‘There are no enemies in front of you.’ It’s sort of us saying -- to ourselves and to the listener -- “Let down your guard. Bring everything you have to this record and see where it takes you. See what happens.”

Monstruos Buenos

He estado pensando algunas cosas, acerca de decisiones que tengo que tomar.

Esta canción me llegó.

Sobretodo la parte que dice...

If good won't show it's ugly face, evil won't you take your place
nothing ever changes, nothing ever changes... by itself.

Si los buenos no muestran su cara fea, los malos no te llevarán a tu lugar. Nada cambia, nada cambia... por sí mismo.

Como dijo Edmond Burke, "La única cosa necesaria para que la maldad triunfe es que los hombres buenos no hagan nada".


Good Monsters
by Jars of Clay



All the good monsters open their eyes,
to see the wasteland where the home fires rise,
and the people shouting why, why, why...
Do you know what you are?
Do you know what you are?

All of the giants wake from their sleep,
and roll outside of safety's keep,
and the pain makes them feel so alive

Do you know what you are?
Do you know what you are?

And we are bored of all the things we know
Do you know what you are?
Do you know what you are?
Not all monsters are bad, but the ones who are good
never do what they could, never do what they could

All the good monsters rattle their chains,
And dance around the open flames,
and they make a lot of empty noise.

While all of the bright eyes turn away,
As if there wasn't anything to say,
About the justice and the mystery.
Do you know what you are?
Do you know what you are?

And we are bored of all the things we know
And we are forms of everything we love, we love.

If good won't show it's ugly face, evil won't you take your place
nothing ever changes, nothing ever changes... by itself.

yeah....yeah...aaah

We are bored of all the things we know
Do you know what you are
'Cause we are, we are so in love with ourselves
And we are forms of all the things we love.

Behind the Song:
"The song Good Monsters sort of is a different way of saying a famous Edmond Burke quote, “The only necessary thing for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing.” Its sort of that, married to the full concept to the album. Just that we only ever are at our best and our most available ability to serve other people well when we are comfortable with who we really are. When we’re comfortable with being a monster and a good person. When we stop putting on that perception of who we are." - Dan Haseltine (Jars Of Clay)

Voy a entregar mi corazón - Pablo Olivares (2007)

Una canción que me gusta muchísimo.

Voy a entregar mi corazón - Pablo Olivares (2007)

En la arena vi tus pasos y encontré el sentido,
Tuve miedo al ver lo angosto que se hacia el camino.
Pero a pesar de los tropiezos y el sabor amargo de la soledad
Me quede viendo tus ojos y empezé a correr.

Cuando estuve al lado tuyo me abrazaste fuerte.
Me llamaste por mi nombre y llore por tu muerte
Con tus manos cariñosas secaste mi rostro me pusiste en pie
Para decirme hijo nunca te deje de amar

Coro
Vivo para adorarte he venido alabarte
Hoy voy a entregar mi corazón.
Vivo para adorarte he venido alabarte
Hoy voy a entregar mi corazon.

Aferrado a tus promesas voy cual peregrino
Gritando a los cuatro vientos Tu eres el motivo
De este regocijo inmenso que me llena el pecho de infinita paz
Pues en tus manos yo deposite mi voluntad

Aquí estoy mi salvador
Vine a darte gracias
Aquí esta mi corazon
Hoy te entrego el alma

Vivo para adorarte he venido alabarte
Hoy voy a entregar mi corazón.
Vivo para adorarte he venido alabarte
Hoy voy a entregar mi corazon.

Vivo para adorarte he venido alabarte
Hoy voy a entregar mi corazón.
Vivo para adorarte he venido alabarte
Hoy voy a entregar mi corazon.

Algo Más

Ha terminado la Covnención Nacional de Liderazgo Juvenil... y hay cosas que todavía están dando vueltas... como el tema de la actitud para enfrentar las cosas, la reseña de la hormiga, el conejo, la langosta y la araña, al misión el la postmodernidad, y otras cosas...

En este momento espero que ese + se haga presente en mi vida, porque me siento como inactivo, y por mientras que la U pasa, y el colapso amenaza con hundir el barco en ocasiones, de todas formas Él está ahí sustentándome.

Necesito un poco más de tiempo para ordenar todo lo aprendido y vivido.

Por ahora, una canción.

Quiero Más (de ti)
Rojo

Tu amor me hace vivir
las aventuras mas emocionantes
Tu amor me baña con dulzura
y me transforma cada instante

Y tu amor me hace danzar...
Y tu amor me hace querer cantar...

[[[[Coro]]]]

Quiero mas, mas de ti
Quiero mas, mas de ti yo

Tu amor me guia
en medio de la oscuridad mas tenebrosa
Tu amor me arrastra
como un rio y me sacude la trsiteza

Y tu amor me hace brincar...
Y tu amor me hace querer gritar...

[[[[Coro]]]]

Me obsesiona tu amor
Me abraza el corazón
y lejos de ti, yo no quiero estar jamas

[[[[Coro]]]]

(x4)
ohh ohh!
Mas de ti, yo!

Quiero mas!

(x7)
Yo quiero mas...

Yo quiero más. Es cierto.
Sólo Tú puedes decir y proveer que.

Renacer

Luego de perseguir muchas cosas, y no obtenerlas, sé que era algo - o mejor dicho - Alguien más a quien yo estaba buscando.

Estando justo al lado mío...
No sabía que lo buscaba.

En reseña a un nuevo descubrimiento, les dejo esta canción.

Reborn Lyrics


Rebecca St. James

If you see a change in me don't wonder
There's someone in my life, a peace I can't describe
For I've been reborn
If you see a change in me don't wonder
I found a whole new life
A hope that I can't hide
For I've been reborn

Have you ever felt
A longing, a searching within your soul for something more
But you don't know what for
There's One who will reach across the distance
From the heavens to the earth
Because He loves you
He loves you

If you see a change in me don't wonder
There's someone in my life, a peace I can't describe
For I've been reborn
If you see a change in me don't wonder
I found a whole new life
A hope that I can't hide
For I've been reborn

If you see a change in me (X4)

Have you ever felt
That something's missing within your soul
You want something more
But you don't know what for
There is only One you need
But you've got to believe that he loves you
Enough to give His life


If you see a change in me don't wonder
There's someone in my life, a peace I can't describe
For I've been reborn
If you see a change in me don't wonder
I found a whole new life
A hope that I can't hide
For I've been reborn

May the grace of our Lord be with you
Now and always may you stay
Blameless till He comes
May the love of our Lord be with you
Now and always may you stay

Encourage and strengthen you
In every good thing you do and say
God loved us
And through His grace

CHORUS

Love mixed with faith be yours
From God the Father
And from the Master, Jesus Christ
And now unto Him
Who is able to keep you from falling
And present you faultless before
The presence of His glory
With exceeding joy
To the only wise God, Our Saviour
Be Glory and Majesty
Dominion and Power
Both now and forever
Amen..

Fade To Red

The Imposter
by Kevin Max

Listen: [rm]

'There will be signs in the sun...' And we want everything to end Just like Nostradamus said Everything is left for dead, fade to red In the gust of the wind on your back In your gut, in the tracks of your mind This is how it ends Everywhere there is hope There is oblivion And we want everything to end Just like Moses said Everything is parted then, fade to red In the crest of a wave, on the fields of a plain In a faraway land its all the same Even when there is love There is also hate And when the sun breaks through the dark (we know we're close to it) And when the son shines through my heart (I know I'm close to it, close to it) From the words of a mystic monk To a drunk on the edge of a nightmare So it is Everywhere there is joy There is also dread From the throne of a militant king With the wings of the fallen and they start to sing 'Inside I am just like you' And we want everything to end Just like Nostradamus said Everything is left for dead, fade to red In the crest of a wave, on the fields of a plain In a faraway land its all the same Even when there is love There is also hate And when the sun breaks through the dark (we know we're close to it) And when the son shines through my heart (I know I'm close to it, close to it, close to it) These are all of the words that were formed before the blood, after the flood Feel the hand of love and sing the song of songs from up above. From the throne of a militant king With the wings of the fallen as they start to sing 'Even when there is love There is also hate' On the crest of a wave, on the fields of a plain In a faraway land its all the same 'Inside I am just like you' And when the sun breaks through the dark And when the SON shines through my heart... I know I'm close to IT .

La Canción del Impostor

Hoy iba trotando, y escuché con detención esta canción.

The Imposter's Song

The Imposter
by Kevin Max

Listen: [rm]

Lyrics: We don't like your politiking Get a new life Get a new love This is where your soul needs stitching Get on a job Bang on the drum Please believe your beautiful when your not made up Turn the switch- to give you my love A soul kiss -it's all over (yeah yeah yeah) Turn the switch- to give you my love A hard itch and it's never enough Later on this train is leaving Get on a board Sit in the sun Praying knees don't need any breaking Use all your fun Sleep like a nun Please believe your beautiful without the makeup Turn the switch- to give you my love A soul kiss- it's all over (yeah yeah yeah) Turn the switch- to give you my love A hard crush and it gives you the shove (It's over) Please believe you're beautiful when you're not made up (it's over now) Please believe you're beautiful and that's not made up (it's all over) Turn the switch- to give you my love A soul kiss-it's all over (yeah yeah yeah) Turn the switch- to give you my love A hard crush and it gives you the shove [Repeat chorus] Lyrics by Kevin Max and Jason Martin / blind thief publishing circa 1991

Lo principal del tema es:
" Por favor, cree que eres hermoso sin maquillajes."

Eso le dice Jesús al mundo.

Eres hermoso por lo que eres, y no por lo que aparentes ser.

Esta frase es la que mejor retrata todo el proceso que me cambió de lo que era a lo que soy.

Se cumple un año de mi crisis, y la conmemoro con esta canción.

A cambio de ti entregaré *hombres;

¡a cambio de tu *vida entregaré pueblos!

Porque te amo y eres ante mis ojos

precioso y digno de honra.

Isaías 43:4

Puedo Creer en Ti

I Can Trust You

Listen: [rm]

Lyrics:
Yes, I know that You have paved a path for me
Yes, I know that You see what I do and don’t need
But when it comes to the deepest things
I have a hard time relinquishing control
Letting go

God, it hurts to give You what I must lay down
But when I let go, freedom’s found
God, it hurts to give You what I’ve held so dear
Because of Your love it’s clear
I can trust You with this
I can trust You with me
I can trust You

Lord, I know that You are worthy of my trust
For You have shown me time and time again
You’re faithful and yet
I’m so scared of letting go of this
Afraid of what You might do with it
How could I forget who You are like this

Me forsaking
Heart is breaking
I let go of what I’ve held so tight
Freedom’s mine now
For the taking
I move in faith, not by sight
Let Your will be done

Behind the Song:

“This song came out of really wrestling with God—and some really personal gut wrenching pain. I had a certain aspect of my life that I really felt God calling me to give completely to Him. There’s been a few experiences in my life where I have felt God calling me to ‘let go’—but this particular time was just so hard. It was giving a dream to Him that was so deep within me—yet He was saying ‘Give this to me, and trust me with it, and I will take care of you, Rebecca.’ I feel that God (when we ask Him to) does give us the ability to ‘let go’ in the times when it’s really impossible for us to do this on our own. One of the things God has called me to let go of and trust Him with is this whole singleness area of my life. A major dream for me has been to get married and have a family—so this song really challenges me. God called me to trust Him with my desire to be married. To say, “Lord, if you have another purpose for me other than this desire that I have, I choose to trust you that you know what’s best for my life.’ He gave me the ability to do this. This song really talks about the challenges of giving God the things closest to us.

I’m so scared of letting go of this Afraid of what you might do with it How could I forget Who You are like this?

When we’re scared to give God the deepest things in our lives, it’s because we forget ‘who’ He is. He, more than anyone else in the universe, will take care of us faithfully.

When I let go…freedom’s found.

That’s what I’ve really experienced in my life. When I have been challenged and given God the deepest areas of my heart…that’s where freedom’ has been found. And it’s beautiful.” - Rebecca St. James

Tierra de Sombras

Esta canción de Rebecca me ha gustado mucho. Acabo de leer la letra, y me identifica mucho.
Sobretodo cuando uno está en status-quo, y no sabe qué pasará con su vida.

Shadowlands

You promised me
That You’d never leave
Or let me go
You promised me
That You’d love me through
The highs and lows

You promised me
You won’t give me more
Than I can bear
You promised me
That when I cry out
That You’d be there

The shadowlands are what I know
So I’m hanging on to Your every word
The shadowlands surround me now
But You walk with me through the cloud
Into the sun
Into the sun

You promised me
If I sow in tears
I’ll reap in joy
You promised me
That You will breathe life
Into my soul

I know it’s true
All that You say
I believe in You
And I am standing on
The promises You’ve made

You promised me and I believe

Behind the Song:

“Since I was a child, I’ve been inspired by the writings of C.S. Lewis. He talks about the ‘shadowlands’ in some of his work. To me, the ‘shadowlands’ represent the times in our lives when we feel like we are walking through a valley filled with a deep cloud—and we just can’t see how we’re going to move out of it—we can’t see much hope or the light at the end of the journey. I’ve been in those spots before in my own life. Times when feelings of discouragement and vulnerability seem to surround me… so much that it’s hard to see the light. What this song really says is that there is hope in the form of our God - who is constantly there with us even in the shadowlands. He will bring us through, out of the clouds and back into the light. I think there’s symbolism in that we’re using the word ‘sun’ in this song and at the same time we’re talking about the Son of God—Jesus—being the giver of that light. Another thing I enjoy about this song is that it talks about the promises of God—such as, ‘if I sow in tears, I’ll reap in joy’. My favorite part of the song is the bridge where it says:

‘I know it’s true—all that you say. I believe in you… And I’m standing on the promises you’ve made.’

To me, that’s such a big declaration of my faith.” - Rebecca St. James

Mi Canción

Hasta lo último de la tierra, soy el que va a difernte lugar.
En la montaña, en el mar, en el bar dicen: "Yo necesito". ¡Everybody listen!
Y duele mucho, el castigo, el mendigo. Yo digo misericordia, aunque no seas amigo.
Si yo no soy, estas piedras dirán. Y así sabrán, y así verán, y así se van.

Donde quiera que te vayas mi canción te seguirá.
Si me esconden o me callan, mi amor te encontrará.

Soy una raza que quiere cambiar, que le incomoda el modelo ¡sábelo!.
Aunque presiento, lo siento, el viento no es favorable, pero confío. Yo no escarmiento.
Y así lo se como José, que aunque en el fondo del pozo sabía que zafaría.
Y lo sabes, brother, te cambiaría. Es pura data quita pena para tu vida, nena.

Donde quiera que te vayas mi canción te seguirá.
Si me esconden o me callan, mi amor te encontrará.

Soy una palabra que va por tu camino,
una palabra que va y no volverá,
que buscará en el amor su propio destino.
Una canción que al final te encontrará.

Donde quiera que te vayas mi canción te seguirá.
Si me esconden o me callan, mi amor te encontrará.

Donde quiera que te vayas mi canción te seguirá.
Si me esconden o me callan, mi amor te encontrará.

No Recibí Nada De Lo Que Pedí

Pedí a Dios ser fuerte
a fin de ejecutar proyectos grandiosos,
y El me hizo débil
para mantenerme humano.

Pedí a Dios que me diese salud
para realizar grandes empresas,
y El me dio la enfermedad
para que Lo comprendiera mejor.

Pedí a Dios riqueza
para poseerlo todo,
y El me dejó pobre
para que no fuese egoísta.

Pedí a Dios poder
para que los hombres necesitasen de mí,
y El me dio humildad
para que yo necesitase de Dios.

Pedí a Dios de todo
para gozar de la vida,
y El me dejó la vida
para poder gozar de todo...

Señor, no recibí nada de lo que pedí,
pero me diste todo lo que yo necesitaba,
y casi contra mi propia voluntad,
las oraciones que yo no hice fueron oídas.

¡Alabado seas oh Dios mío!
¡Entre todos los hombres nadie tiene más que yo!
