¡Cuanto tiempo!. Bueno, había dejado esto un poco tiradillo a causa de exámenes y trabajo. Pero vuelvo con una de las mejores canciones que he oído en mi vida. Los británicos "The Killers" con su tema Tranquilize, que es una mezcla de todo lo bueno que puede dar su vocalista Brandon Flowers, con unos arreglos vocales de lo mas powermetaleros. Coros y piano a lo queen y multitud de contenido social en la letra. Un tema que no puedes parar de escuchar.
Time it tells living in my home town, Wedding bells they begin easy Live it down, baby don't talk that much, Baby knows, but baby don't tease me. In the park we could go walking, Drown in the dark or we could go sailing On the sea
Always here, always on time Close call, was it love or was it just easy Money talks when people need shoes and socks, Steady boys, I'm thinking she needs me
I was just sipping on something sweet I don't need political process
I got this feeling that they're gonna break down the door I got this feeling they they're gonna come back for more See I was thinking that I lost my mind But it's been getting to me all this time And it don't stop dragging me down
Silently reflection turns my world to stone Patiently correction leaves us all alone And sometimes I'm a travel man But tonight this engine's failing
I still hear the children playing
Kick the can, kick the can, skip and blackjack Steal a car and ring a round-rosey, Rock and roll, candyland, boogeyman, Run away and give me your sneakers
Acid rain, when Abel looked up at Cain We began the weeping and wailing A hurried high from pestilence, pills and pride, It's a shame, we could of gone sailing But heaven knows, Heaven knows everything Tranquilize
I got this feeling that they're gonna break down the door I got this feeling they they're gonna come back for more See I was thinking that I lost my mind But it's been getting to me all this time And it don't stop dragging me down
Silently reflection turns my world to stone Patiently correction leaves us all alone And sometimes I'm travel man But tonight this engine's failing
I still hear the children playing Dead beat dancers come to us and stay
Cause I don't care where you've been And I don't care what you've seen We're the ones who still believe And we're looking for a page In that lifeless book of hope Where a dream might help you cope With the Bushes and the bombs A-re, Tranquilized.
Esta canción de la grandísima Janis Joplin llamada 'Leaving on a jet plane' es un pepinazo, como diría aquel. La letra genial y una voz dulce que te apetece volver a escuchar, totalmente desmarcada de 'Cry baby' o 'Mercedes-Benz', que también son geniales. Aquí os la dejo
PD: en el video salen imágenes de Lost, serie que me decepcionó a la segunda temporada. XD
También es digno de mención el genial Momo Cortés. Protagonista en el musical de Queen 'We Will Rock You', tiene un grupo de mismo nombre: "Momo" . En sus conciertos tocan buena parte del repertorio de la banda de Mercury. Pero no sólo eso, sino que han sacado un disco de producción propia que no tiene desperdicio. Un gustazo para los oídos.
En el video que viene a continuación, cuando entra Brian Harold May se me ponen los pelos de punta.
