Este
mes, el día 8, David Bowie cumplió 66 años así que yo le hago desde aquí mi
pequeña dedicación a éste que es uno de mis favoritos, desde siempre. En los años 80
tuve la suerte de ir a un concierto suyo y en aquella ocasión estuve todo le cerca
que pude del escenario ¡cómo me gustó!
Figura importante de la música durante más de cinco
décadas, Bowie es considerado un innovador, en particular por sus trabajos de la
década de los 70 y por su particular voz, además de la profundidad intelectual de
su obra.
Starman: La letra
de esta canción describe a Ziggy Stardust, que es su su extravagante y andrógino álter ego,
enviando un mensaje de esperanza a la
juventud de la Tierra a través de la radio.
Didn't know what time it was and the lights
were low
I leaned back on my radio
Some cat was layin' down some rock 'n' roll 'lotta soul,
he said
Then the loud sound did seem to fade
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase
That weren't no D.J. that was hazy cosmic jive
[CHORUS]
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
He told me:
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie
I had to phone someone so I picked on you
Hey, that's far out so you heard him too!
Switch on the TV
we may pick him up on channel two
Look out your window I can see his light
If we can sparkle he may land tonight
Don't tell your poppa or he'll get us locked up in fright
[CHORUS (x2)]
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
