Esta semana es casi obligado dedicarle la entrada a la
canción principal de la gira de Bon Jovi en 2013 “Because we can” porque esta
semana hemos comprado las entradas para su concierto en el Vicente Calderón el
día 27 de junio. Le dedico esta entrada a mis amigas Elena y Susana con las que
iré y con las que disfrutaré del concierto. Lógicamente tenemos que aprendernos
esta canción.
Bon Jovi es una banda estadounidense formada en 1983 por su líder,
vocalista y guitarra Jon Bon Jovi , Richie Sambora-guitarra (que hace 4 días
anunció su baja en la banda por motivos personales), Tico Torres-batería, David
Bryan-teclados, Hugh McDonald-bajo y Alec John Such-bajo. En sus comienzos
clasificaron su música como glam metal y según han evolucionado han ido
haciendo hard rock, rock melódico y pop rock. Consiguieron su gran primer éxito
mundial con Slippery When Wet y llegó
a ser el albúm más vendido del año 1987 en Estados Unidos. En este álbum sobresale
su tema de mayor éxito Livin’On a Prayer
que fue designada mejor canción de los ochenta por la cadena norteamericana VHI. El año
1988 lanzaron su disco New Jersey con
el que consiguieron un éxito similar y es considerado el mejor de la banda por
los críticos. En 2000, alcanzaron gran éxito y repercusión gracias al exitoso tema It’s my life, perteneciente a su
álbum Crush. Desde entonces la banda ha
logrado mantenerse, han ganado muchísimos premios y hasta la actualidad ha
vendido más de 130 millones de discos.
Por otro
lado, Bon Jovi ha participado en varios eventos importantes como el Monsters of
Rock (en 1985 y 1987), el Rock in Río (en 1985, 2008, 2010 y 2013), el Live 8 o
el Live Earth, además de ser uno de los pocos grupos que ha tenido la
oportunidad de tocar en el Central Park y el Madison Square Garden de Nueva
York.
Su último albúm es What About Now,
con el que están realizando una gira mundial que comenzó en marzo de este año
2013. Esta girá lleva el nombre de un single del álbum, llamado que se llama Because We Can, que es el primer single
del álbum, lanzado el 7 de enero del 2013 bajo Island Records como descarga
digital. Y ésta es la canción de esta semana...
I don't want to be another wave in the ocean
I am a rock not just another grain of sand
-That's what I want-
I want to be the one you run to when you need a shoulder
I ain't a soldier but I'm here to take a stand
Because we can
She's in the kitchen staring out the window
So tired of living life in black and white
Right now she's missing
Those technicolor kisses
When he turns down the lights
Lately he's feeling like a broken promise
In the mirror staring down his doubt
There's only one thing in this world that he knows
He said forever and he'll never let her down
I don't want to be another wave in the ocean
I am a rock not just another grain of sand
-That's what I want-
I want to be the one you run to when you need a shoulder
I ain't a soldier but I'm here to take a stand
Because we can
TV and takeout on the coffee table
Paper dishes, pour a glass of wine
Turn down the sound and move a little closer
And for the moment everything is alright
I don't want be another wave in the ocean
I am a rock not just another grain of sand
-That's what I want-
I want be the one you run to when you need a shoulder
I ain't a soldier but I'm here to take a stand
Because we can
Our love can move a mountain
We can if you believe in we
We can, just wrap your arms around me
We can, we can
I don't want be another wave in the ocean
I am a rock not just another grain of sand
-That's what I want-
I want be the one you run to when you need a shoulder
I ain't a soldier but I'm here to take a stand
I don't want be another wave in the ocean
I am a rock not just another grain of sand
-That's what I want-
I want be the one you run to when you need a shoulder
I ain't a soldier but I'm here to take a stand
Because we can
Our love can move a mountain
We can if you believe in we
We can, just wrap your arms around me
We can, we can
Because we can
I am a rock not just another grain of sand
-That's what I want-
I want to be the one you run to when you need a shoulder
I ain't a soldier but I'm here to take a stand
Because we can
She's in the kitchen staring out the window
So tired of living life in black and white
Right now she's missing
Those technicolor kisses
When he turns down the lights
Lately he's feeling like a broken promise
In the mirror staring down his doubt
There's only one thing in this world that he knows
He said forever and he'll never let her down
I don't want to be another wave in the ocean
I am a rock not just another grain of sand
