Cake - I will survive

Sin desmerecer lo más mínimo a Gloria Gaynor...hoy una Cover de su eterno hit...

La habreis oido hasta la saciedad en un conocido anuncio de televisión,pero entera y verdadera me imagino que pocas veces. Este tema lo interpreto Gloria Gaynor en 1978. Trata de una separación dura en una relación y la superación de la misma. Enseguida se conviertio en un éxito y en un clásico por la fuerza que le imprimio, por la intensidad de su letra y por ese don pegadizo que tiene. Además de eso se convirtió en un himno feminista, en un himno gay y en el himno de que cantan los seguidores del Galatasaray turco, ahí es nada...y pronostico que se convertirá en vuestro himno de hoy porque no os lo quitareis de la cabeza.

La banda Cake, como otras antes, versionó este tema en su disco fashion nugget del 96, dotandole de un ritmo más rock, más indie, con un fondo de guitarras y un ritmo menos dance, sin olvidarse de ese sólo trompetero siempre gritado al final de la canción con ese lararalalaaaa...a que si?. Como curiosidad, he leido que se considera profanado el tema, ya que varía unas palabras, en vez de decir that stupid lock, lo cambia por my fucking lock, libertad creativa....

Pues nada, a poner una sonrisa a esta mañana, y por ende, al día completo y a sobrevivir!!!



"I Will Survive
At first I was afraid
I was petrified
I kept thinking I could never live without you
By my side
But then I spent so many nights
Just thinking how you've done me wrong
I grew strong
I learned how to get along

And so you're back
From outer space
I just walked in to find you
Here without that look upon your face

I should have changed my f*ckin' lock
I would have made you leave your key
If I had had know for just one second
You'd be back to bother me

Well now go,
Walk out the door
Just turn around
Now, you're not welcome anymore

Weren't you the one
Who tried to break me with desire?
Did you think I'd crumple?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?

Oh not I,
I will survive
Yeah
As Long as I know how to love,
I know I'll be alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
I will survive,
I will survive
Yeah, yeah

It took all the strength I had
Just not to fall apart
I'm trying hard to mend the pieces
Of my broken heart
And I spent oh so many nights
Just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry,
But now I hold my head up high

And you see me
With somebody new
I'm not that stupid little person
Still in love with you
And so you thought you'd just drop by
And you expect me to be free
But now I'm saving all my lovin'
For someone whose lovin' me

Well now go,
Walk out the door
Just turn around
Now, you're not welcome anymore

Weren't you the one
Who tried to break me with desire?
Did you think I'd crumple?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?

Oh not I,
I will survive
Yeah
As long as I know how to love,
I know I'll be alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
I will survive,
I will survive
Yeah, yeah

Oh no"
