The boy done wrong again

Belle and Sebastian - "The boy done wrong again", del álbum "If you are feeling sinister".

The boy done wrong again
The boy done wrong again
Hang your head in shame and cry your life away
The boy done wrong again
Hang your head in shame and cry your life away
Are you ok now?

On Saturday I was an angel shining fair
You shone louder, longer
You put my shine to shame
Put me to shame now

What is it I must do to pay for all my crimes?
What is it I must do?
I would do it all the time
Do it all the time now

All I wanted was to sing the saddest song
And if you would sing along I will be happy now

The woodland spring has put the darkness from your thinking
If this town's your sinking ship
Then you know where to jump

Talking dirty, for a hobby that's alright
Pour another glass of wine
I'll think of England this time

All I wanted was to sing the saddest song
And if you would sing along
Oh if you would sing along
if you only sing along I will be happier

Che, viejo, te dejo una canción anti-pomelogris (ya sabés lo que dicen... "aunque no lo veamos el sol siempre está") que canto cuando estoy soblue as your song shows.

***Here Comes The Sun***
(George Harrison)

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Little darlin' it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darlin' it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Little darlin' the smiles returning to their faces
Little darlin' it seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Little darlin' I feel the ice is slowly meltin'
Little darlin' it seems like years since it's been clear
Here come the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Here come the sun, here comes the sun
It's all right, it's all right

Gracias Ine, me costó un poco entender tu spanglish pero logré captar el mensaje.
Te cuento que la banda, Belle and Sebastian, tiene un excelentísimo cover de la canción de G. Harrison, si te interesa te lo paso.
Además, tienen una onda "beatlesca" y hippona muy linda, cursi y sentimentaloide-melancólica, no necesariamente depresiva.
Nos estamos viendo y me despido con un mensaje más alentador, desde "Lucky", de Radiohead:
"I feel my luck could change".

-traduzco mi spanglish:

donde dice "cuando estoy soblue as your song shows" leer: "cuando estoy tan triste como muestra tu canción"

ufff con mi bronquitis creciendo y el día ultra gris de hoy necesito, más que Beatles o Belle and Sebastian (gran banda!), un shock Bob Marley, cerveza dorada, arena y sol.

Pará, pará... ¿Conocés Belle and Sebastian y me lo decís así?
Estas cosas no se dan todos los días Ine, explayate un poco más sobre esta ventaja que tenemos sobre el resto los que conocemos este exquisito pop escocés.

Ah, mala educación de mi parte antes: qué te mejores pronto!
