Cura de Oídos VI

'Cura de Oídos'. Cerca de 388 000 resultados en el Guugel. La primera página que aparece es mi blog. ¿Orgullo? Después. Tengo un post que escribir. Después de la pérdida de Richard Wright (acaecida en un 18 de este mes de este horrible año), me he puesto a escuchar Pink floyd, quedando nostálgico por la pérdida. Y con el firme propósito de culturizarlos. Por eso, escogeré dos canciones (lo usual es sólo una) de dos de sus mejores lanzamientos: 'The Wall' y el 'Wish You Were Here'. Ahí les va.

'Wish You Were Here'

Compuesta inicialmente para el ex-vocalista de Pink Floyd, Syd Barret (muerto en el 2006), ahora va dedicada a Rick. Una canción tocada en la reunión para el Live 8 2006. El mismo año que murió Syd. Ahora, un sueño irrealizable.

*SONG LYRICS/LETRAS DE LA ROLA:

So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field
from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade
your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a
walk on part in the war
for a lead role in a cage?

How I wish,
how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl,
year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

'Hey You'

Con esto comienza el segundo disco de 'The Wall'. Este disco originó una gira, y ona de las mejores puestas en escena que se haya podido imaginar. Un concierto memorable. Si no entiendes lo que puedes ver, es porque res un reggaetonero, y por consiguiente, un estúpido ignorante.

*SONG LYRICS/LETRAS DE LA ROLA:

Hey you! out there in the cold
Getting lonely, getting old, can you feel me
Hey you! Standing in the aisles
With itchy feet and fading smiles, can you feel me
Hey you! don't help them to bury the light
Don't give in without a fight.

Hey you! out there on your own
sitting naked by the phone would you touch me
Hey you! with your ear against the wall
Waiting for someone to call out would you touch me
Hey you! would you help me to carry the stone
Open your heart, I'm coming home

[SOLO]

But it was only a fantasy
The wall was too high as you can see
No matter how he tried he could not break free
And the worms ate into his brain.

Hey you! out there on the road
Always doing what you're told, can you help me
Hey you! out there beyond the wall
Breaking bottles in the hall, can you help me
Hey you! don't tell me there's no hope at all
Together we stand, divided we fall.

Eso es todo. Rest in Peace, Rick.
Auf Wiedersehen.
