Absolutely

«As long as you're still smiling
There's nothing more I need
I absolutely love you»

Ragazzo Solo, Ragazza Sola

Planet Earth is blue...

Esta foi a primeira notícia que li hoje: David Bowie partiu aos 69.  Confesso: fiquei triste, verdadeiramente triste. Como, há seis anos, com a notícia da morte de Lhasa ou, há cinco, com a do Bernardo Sassetti.

Sunday

Nothing remains
We could run
when the rain slows
Look for the cars or signs of life
Where the heat goes
Look for the drifters
We should crawl under the bracken
Look for the shafts of light on the road
Where the heat goes


Everything has changed
For in truth, it's the beginning of nothing
And nothing has changed
Everything has changed
For in truth, it's the beginning of an end
And nothing has changed
And everything has changed


In your fear
Of what we have become
Take to the fire
Now we must burn
All that we are
Rise together
Through these clouds
As on wings


In your fear, seek only peace
In you fear, seek only love
In your fear, seek only peace
In you fear, seek only love
In your fear, in your fear
As on wings
This is the trip
And this is the business we take
This is our number
All my trials, Lord
Will be remembered
Everything has changed

wild is the wind...
 
 na voz do Bowie
 
 na inconfundível voz da Nina Simone Por falar em Nina, acho que hoje me vai apetecer voltar a estes temas (a todos, porque não é fácil escolher!). Boa tarde para todos... com bom vento!

Sem dúvida, Manuel Cardoso, este tema também é muito bonito. Contudo, continuo a preferir os mais antigos, como "Ziggy Stardust" ou "Space Oddity".
