LA perla...

No, no he cometido ningun error en el titulo del post. La cancion que resuena en mi cabeza hoy es, como definirla, LA cancion.

El grupo The Wallflowers con Jacob Dylan (sip, el hijo de Bob Dylan, mucho mas guapo que su padre), el disco "Bringing Down The Horse", de hace ya un tiempo.
Este cd fue mi cd de estudio durante COU y toda la carrera y aunque este grupo ha sacado mas discos al mercado...me quedo con este sin dudarlo un solo instante.

Lo de siempre...disfrutarla, traducidla y, aunque parezca muy obvio, leed entre lineas, merece la pena.

One Headlight

So long ago, I don't remember when
That's when they say I lost my only friend
Well they said she died easy of a broken heart disease
As I listened through the cemetery trees

I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn
The long broken arm of human law
Now it always seemed such a waste
She always had a pretty face
So I wondered how she hung around this place

Hey, come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than
In the middle
But me & Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight

She said it's cold
It feels like Independence Day
And I can't break away from this parade
But there's got to be an opening
Somewhere here in front of me
Through this maze of ugliness and greed
And I seen the sun up ahead
At the county line bridge
Sayin' all there's good and nothingness is dead
We'll run until she's out of breath
She ran until there's nothin' left
She hit the end-it's just her window ledge

Hey, come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than
In the middle
But me & Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight

Well this place is old
It feels just like a beat up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
Well it smells of cheap wine & cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same<>

Buenísima canción, me alegro de que coincidamos por una vez. La he escuchado miles de veces y todavía hoy tengo el disco en el iPod ;).
