Casualidades de la vida: "CHERRY RED"

Earthless - Rhythms from a Cosmic Sky (2008)

De vez en cuando, no dejo de sorprenderme a mi mismo con curiosidades o coincidencias como la que me acaba de ocurrir. Os cuento. Llevo varias horas escuchando música a través el ordenador, con la función aleatoria activada, cientos de discos donde escoger al azar el puto reproductor, y cuando decido quitarlo, mantengo una última canción hasta el final antes de apagar: "Cherry Red", la versión que cierra el segundo disco de los californianos Earthless.

Acto seguido, abro el facebook y el primer video que me encuentro arriba del todo adivinad cual es. Pues sí, la auténtica, genuina y original pieza maestra de los célebres Groundhogs, de su album "Split" grabado en 1971. ¿Os lo podeis creer? Yo tampoco. Pero es tan cierto y real como la vida misma.

"No existe la casualidad, y lo que se nos presenta como azar surge de las fuentes más profundas." Friedrich Schiller, poeta y dramaturgo alemán (1759-1805)

 

All night long, I loved her
Morning came too soon,
I knew she'd be gone by the afternoon.
I said, "Please don't go!"
Still she said goodbye
But as she turned around she had a crafty look in her eye.
As she turned around she had a crafty look in her eye.
As she turned around she had a crafty look in her eye.

And I thought it said
When you look round to see me
You turn right in your bed
The warmth of my body will heat you
Make your blood run cherry red,
Cherry red
Cherry red.

All next day I waited for her return
But she didn't show
Until I turned to look on your night
I said, "Please come soon!"
Still there was no sign
But as the dawn returned that look round was just a lie.
As the dawn returned that look round was just a lie.
As the dawn returned that look round was just a lie.
