Blues Traveler - Run Around

Un tema fresquito para un dia caluroso.

Cuando el otro día viendo VH1 salió este video me vinieron a la cabeza rapidamente aquellos primeros días discotequeros, en los que querías ser mayor antes de tiempo, cuando un cigarrito te hacía ser más duro, cuando con un cubata la cabeza te daba vueltas, cuando te intentabas colar en una disco sin tener la edad con la triste excusa de ser un amigo venido de fuera que se había dejado el carnet en Salamanca.

No conocía al grupo, pero el tema me encanto. Me cautivo esa armónica, esa melodia pegadiza, y ese ritmo tan fresco. Blues Traveler son una banda americana influencia por cantidad de generos. Según he leido, su directo debe ser muuy bueno, reconocido por sus improvisaciones. No se mucho más de ellos, pero creo que a veces no hace falta más. La música es disfrute...o no?

Sed felices...o al menos intentarlo..hasta mañana!

"Once upon a midnight dearie
I woke with something in my head
I couldnt escape the memory
Of a phone call and of what you said
Like a game show contestant with a parting gift
I could not believe my eyes
When I saw through the voice of a trusted friend
Who needs to humor me and tell me lies
Yeah humor me and tell me lies
And Ill lie too and say I dont mind
And as we seek so shall we find
And when youre feeling open Ill still be here
But not without a certain degree of fear
Of what will be with you and me
I still can see things hopefully

But you
Why you wanna give me a run-around
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
When all it does is slow me down

And shake me and my confidence
About a great many things
But Ive been there I can see it cower
Like a nervous magician waiting in the wings
Of a bad play where the heroes are right
And nobody thinks or expects too much
And hollywoods calling for the movie rights
Singing hey babe lets keep in touch
Hey baby lets keep in touch
But I want more than a touch I want you to reach me
And show me all the things no one else can see
So what you feel becomes mine as well
And soon if were lucky wed be unable to tell
Whats yours and mine the fishings fine
And it doesnt have to rhyme so dont you feed me a line

But you
Why you wanna give me a run-around
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
When all it does is slow me down

Tra la la la la bombardier this is the pilot speaking
And Ive got some news for you
It seems my ship still stands no matter what you drop
And there aint a whole lot that you can do
Oh sure the banner may be torn and the winds gotten colder
Perhaps Ive grown a little cynical
But I know no matter what the waitress brings
I shall drink in and always be full
My cup shall always be full

Oh I like coffee
And I like tea
Id like to be able to enter a final plea
I still got this dream that you just cant shake
I love you to the point you can no longer take
Well all right okay
So be that way
I hope and pray
That theres something left to say

But you
Why you wanna give me a run-around
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
When all it does is slow me down

But you
Why you wanna give me a run-around
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
When all it does is slow me down"
