NusKa&co...

Con Brandon ha sido progresivo, constante y nunca desaparecerá.  Pero en cuanto escuchas la voz de Corgan mezclada con sus acordes en la acústica...

Time is never time at all
You can never ever leave, without leaving a piece of youth
And our lives are forever changed
We will never be the same
The more you change the less you feel

Believe, believe in me, believe, believe!
That life can change, that you're not stuck in vain
We’re not the same, we're different.
Tonight, tonight, tonight
So bright
Tonight, tonight

And you know you're never sure
But you're sure you could be right
If you held yourself up to the light
And the embers never fade, in your city by the lake
The place where you were born

Tom Meighan deleitó sus mejores canciones de Kasabian, bajo una gran ingesta de cualquier droga y una estética muy Gallagher.
Después llegó The Killers,con el gran Brandon Flowers junto a Dave,Mark y Ronnie, con unas melenas demasiado largas. Fue apoteósico. Y después de una larga espera, Billy Corgan con los suyos, y unos renovados Smashing Pumpkins. Suerte la mía de que hayan decidido volver a cantar.

¡OH, expansión de la juventud!¡Elasticidad siempre
tensada hacia adelante!

¡Oh,madurez,equilibrada,florida y plena!

¡Vejez que se alza magnífica!¡Oh bienvenida,inefable gracia de los días de ocaso!

Atravesemos este umbral con valentía. El tiempo se mide según ellos. Solo son días, en realidad segundos. O momentos,o hechos. O risas. O palabras. ¿Quieres medir el tiempo? Hazlo como te parezca. Yo estudié las normas y no me convencieron. Asi que no lloraré porque ellos no se acuerden de seguirlas.

Jimmy Eat World

I

He did not wear his scarlet coat,
For blood and wine are red,
And blood and wine were on his hands
When they found him with the dead,
The poor dead woman whom he loved,
And murdered in her bed.

He walked amongst the Trial Men
In a suit of shabby gray;
A cricket cap was on his head,
And his step seemed light and gay;
But I never saw a man who looked
So wistfully at the day.

I never saw a man who looked
With such a wistful eye
Upon that little tent of blue
Which prisoners call the sky,
And at every drifting cloud that went
With sails of silver by.

I walked, with other souls in pain,
Within another ring,
And was wondering if the man had done
A great or little thing,
When a voice behind me whispered low,
"That fellow's got to swing."

Dear Christ! the very prison walls
Suddenly seemed to reel,
And the sky above my head became
Like a casque of scorching steel;
And, though I was a soul in pain,
My pain I could not feel.

I only knew what haunted thought
Quickened his step, and why
He looked upon the garish day
With such a wistful eye;
The man had killed the thing he loved,
And so he had to die.

Yet each man kills the thing he loves,
By each let this be heard,
Some do it with a bitter look,
Some with a flattering word,
The coward does it with a kiss,
The brave man with a sword!

Some kill their love when they are young,
And some when they are old;
Some strangle with the hands of Lust,
Some with the hands of Gold:
The kindest use a knife, because
The dead so soon grow cold.

Some love too little, some too long,
Some sell, and others buy;
Some do the deed with many tears,
And some without a sigh:
For each man kills the thing he loves,
Yet each man does not die.

He does not die a death of shame
On a day of dark disgrace,
Nor have a noose about his neck,
Nor a cloth upon his face,
Nor drop feet foremost through the floor
Into an empty space.

He does not sit with silent men
Who watch him night and day;
Who watch him when he tries to weep,
And when he tries to pray;
Who watch him lest himself should rob
The prison of its prey.

He does not wake at dawn to see
Dread figures throng his room,
The shivering Chaplain robed in white,
The Sheriff stern with gloom,
And the Governor all in shiny black,
With the yellow face of Doom.

He does not rise in piteous haste
To put on convict-clothes,
While some coarse-mouthed Doctor gloats, and notes
Each new and nerve-twitched pose,
Fingering a watch whose little ticks
Are like horrible hammer-blows.

He does not feel that sickening thirst
That sands one's throat, before
The hangman with his gardener's gloves
Comes through the padded door,
And binds one with three leathern thongs,
That the throat may thirst no more.

He does not bend his head to hear
The Burial Office read,
Nor, while the anguish of his soul
Tells him he is not dead,
Cross his own coffin, as he moves
Into the hideous shed.

He does not stare upon the air
Through a little roof of glass:
He does not pray with lips of clay
For his agony to pass;
Nor feel upon his shuddering cheek
The kiss of Caiaphas.

The Balad  of  Reading Gaol   ( Oscar Wilde)

Voy a cerrar los ojos en voz baja
voy a meterme a tientas en el sueño.
En este instante el odio no trabaja
para la muerte que es su pobre dueño
la voluntad suspende su latido
y yo me siento lejos, tan pequeño

que a Dios invoco, pero no le pido
nada, con tal de compartir apenas
este universo que hemos conseguido

por las malas y a veces por las buenas.
¿Por qué el mundo soñado no es el mismo
que este mundo de muerte a manos llenas?

Mi pesadilla es siempre el optimismo:
me duermo débil, sueño que soy fuerte,
pero el futuro aguarda. Es un abismo.

No me lo digan cuando me despierte.

Mario Benedetti
