This is the day



¡Qué hostias!, nunca me he autodedicado una canción, así que hoy lo hago. Uno de los primeros elepés que me compré, cuando aún no tenía tocadiscos, y que compré en Andorra, ya veis qué cosas. Una de mis canciones preferidas, con voz grave, acordeón arrebatador y una estética cutre años ochenta que tiene su encanto (cómo se nota la croma en el paseo de Matt Johnson...!).

¡Salud, Julio!


P.D. Os pongo la letra para practicar.



This is the day. The The


Well...

you didn't wake up this morning

Because you didn't go to bed

You were watching the whites of your eyes

Turn red

The calendar, on your wall, is ticking the days off

The calendar on your wall is ticking the days off

You've been reading some old letters

You smile and think how much you've changed

All the money in the world

Couldn't bring back those days.

You pull back the curtains, and the sun burns into your eyes,

You watch a plane flying across a clear blue sky.

THIS IS THE DAY --

Your life will surely change.

THIS IS THE DAY --

Your life will surely change.

You could've done anything -- if you'd wanted

And all your friends and family think that you're lucky.

But the side of you they'll never see

Is when you're left alone with the memories

That hold your life together like

Glue

How many memories in my mind with this song and her wonderful lyric!
It´s true: how much we have changed while the calendar is ticking the days off, the years off, even the life off...
Happy not birthday and kisses of
