"Something just like this" ( "Something just like this").
Coldplay and Chainsmokers.
Hi guys!
Today we are going to make you a different proposal.
Let's bring art and music together: How about illustrating a song?
For this, we have chosen a song by the British group Coldplay and Chainsmokers: "Something just like this".
It's a very cool song, which talks about superheroes and the superhero we all have inside. Very appropriate for these times we are living in.
Below are the lyrics in English and Spanish, and the link to the video clip which is like the illustration of a story.
The proposal is that you illustrate or draw what the song suggests to you, make two or three illustrations including the text in the image.
Use a black background and chalk, pastels or markers, as in the video clip which is very cool, take a look!
Letra de la canción Something just like this, de The Chainsmokers con Coldplay, en inglés (english lyrics)
I've been reading books of old
The legends and the myths
Achilles and his gold
Hercules and his gifts
Spiderman's control
And Batman with his fists
And clearly I don't see myself upon that list
But she said, where'd you want to go?
How much you want to risk?
I'm not looking for somebody
With some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairytale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can kiss
I want something just like this
Oh, I want something just like this
Oh, I want something just like this
I want something just like this
I've been reading books of old
The legends and the myths
The testaments they told
The moon and its eclipse
And Superman unrolls
A suit before he lifts
But I'm not the kind of person
That it fits
But she said, where'd you want to go?
How much you want to risk?
I'm not looking for somebody
With some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairytale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can kiss
I want something just like this
I want something just like this
Oh, I want something just like this
Oh, I want something just like this

Letra en español de la canción de The Chainsmokers, con Coldplay, Something just like this (letra traducida)
I have been reading older books,
legends and myths.
Achilles and his gold,
Hercules and his gifts,
control of Spiderman,
and Batman with his fists.
And I clearly don't see myself on that list.
But she said, what are you getting at?
How much do you want to risk?
I am not looking for someone
with superhuman powers,
some kind of superhero,
(nor) fairy-tale happiness,
just (looking for) someone I can turn to,
someone I can kiss.
I want something just like this,
oh, I want something just like this.
Oh, I want something just like this.
I want something just like this.
I have been reading older books,
legends and myths.
The testimonials they left behind,
the moon and its eclipse.
And Superman develops
a suit before rising,
but I'm not the kind of person
to which they (the suits) fit.
But she said, what are you getting at?
How much do you want to risk?
I am not looking for someone
with superhuman powers,
some kind of superhero,
(nor) fairy-tale happiness,
just (looking for) someone I can turn to,
someone I can kiss.
I want something just like this,
I want something just like this.
Oh, I want something just like this.
Oh, I want something just like this.
