Hoy una especie de Deseo de Liebestod popero:
"There is a light that never goes out"
(The Queen Is Dead. The Smiths. 1986)
"There is a light that never goes out"
(The Queen Is Dead. The Smiths. 1986)
Take me out tonight
Where there's music and there's people
And they're young and alive
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one
Anymore
Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people and I
Want to see life
Driving in your car
Oh, please don't drop me home
Because it's not my home, it's their
Home, and I'm welcome no more
And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine
Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought Oh God, my chance has come at last
(But then a strange fear gripped me and I
Just couldn't ask)
Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one, da ...
Oh, I haven't got one
And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine
Oh, There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out
Where there's music and there's people
And they're young and alive
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one
Anymore
Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people and I
Want to see life
Driving in your car
Oh, please don't drop me home
Because it's not my home, it's their
Home, and I'm welcome no more
And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine
Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought Oh God, my chance has come at last
(But then a strange fear gripped me and I
Just couldn't ask)
Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home

Oh, I haven't got one
And if a double-decker bus

To die by your side

Oh, There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out
Vi a The Smiths en Madrid mediados los 80 en el Pº camoens. Jim se movía espasmódico con una camissa horterísima y Johnny punteba como un poseso...Fue mucho después cuando me di cuenta de los que Morrisey-Marr supusieron para la música del siglo XX.
ResponderEliminarCuando dije Jim quería decir Steven. Sorry ¡¡
ResponderEliminarMe está viniendo muy bien esta puesta al día. Una canción estupenda. El video parece un poco homenaje-cita a David Lynch, con su divisoria de carretera-Lost Highways al principio, y acabando con azules-blue velvet.
ResponderEliminarGracias, Gonzalo, por compartir la experiencia.
ResponderEliminarJosé Luis supongo que lo de puesta al día no irá con segundas porque estamos hablando de hace 25 años más o menos.
No, no va con segundas. A partir de los 80 me desconecté de la música pop, y si me ponen ahora estos Smiths y me dicen que son de lo más nuevo, me lo creo. Estaba, como en el sitio ese en que trabajabas, con la música brasileña, el jazz, James Taylor y alguna otra hierba de su estilo. Pero es verdad que más que una puesta al día, necesito una puesta, de modo que por mí, adelante y gracias.
