Lloyd Cole and the Commotions, un grupo que casi tenía olvidado, a pesar de que durante un tiempo su LP, Rattlesnakes (1984), siempre estuvo girando en el plato, es lo que pasó con gran parte de la música de esta época, se asoció a un desgraciado acontecimiento y durante bastantes años -veinte, ni más ni menos- ocupó -podríamos decir- sectores defectuosos e ilegibles de mi disco duro. El vinilo no tenía desperdicio y cualquier canción es digna de ser mostrada aquí, finalmente me decido por "Forest Fire" puesto que era la que ponía a mis amigos que no conocían el grupo para que se engancharan y tiene una progresión muy interesante, va cambiando y jugando al despiste, casi imposible no dejar de prestarle atención. Pero ya os digo que vale la pena hacerse con el disco completo (lo podéis descargar en Stupid and Contagious), os dejo la canción:
She crossed herself as she put on her things
She has promised once before not to live this way
If she don't calm down she will burn herself out
Like a forest fire, well doesn't that make you smile
If you don't slow down, I swear that I'll come round
And mess up your place, let's go for a spin
They say we shouldn't even know each other
And that we'll be undone
Don't it make you smile like a forest fire
I believe in love, I'll believe in anything
That's gonna get me what I want and get me off my knees
Then we'll burn your house down, don't it feel so good
There's a forest fire every time we get together
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Hey pick you up, put you down
Rip you up and spin you round
Just like we said we would
'cause we're a forest fire
Believe you me, we'll tear this place down
If we get caught in this wind then we could burn the ocean
If we get caught in this scene we're gonna be undone
It's just a simple metaphor, it's for a burning love
Don't it make you smile like a forest fire
She has promised once before not to live this way
If she don't calm down she will burn herself out
Like a forest fire, well doesn't that make you smile
If you don't slow down, I swear that I'll come round
And mess up your place, let's go for a spin
They say we shouldn't even know each other
And that we'll be undone
Don't it make you smile like a forest fire
I believe in love, I'll believe in anything
That's gonna get me what I want and get me off my knees
Then we'll burn your house down, don't it feel so good
There's a forest fire every time we get together
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Hey pick you up, put you down
Rip you up and spin you round
Just like we said we would
'cause we're a forest fire
Believe you me, we'll tear this place down
If we get caught in this wind then we could burn the ocean
If we get caught in this scene we're gonna be undone
It's just a simple metaphor, it's for a burning love
Don't it make you smile like a forest fire
Para que te hagas una idea de mi desfase, los primeros compases de esta canción, supongo que por el órgano, me han traido a la cabeza a Jane Birkin... Muy interesante este tema, pero mucho más el grupo de tu anterior post.
