suflet rebel - 61

Sa fii rebel inseamna sa-ti asumi curajul de a fi altfel, sa te razvratesti impotriva sabloanelor care-i modeleaza pe cei din jur si mai ales sa alegi durerea de a renunta la proprii idoli atunci cand ai ales alt drum. Asa ca azi revin la telenovela mea rock, pentru ca zilele aceastea am ascultat si reascultat "Foo Fighters" si m-am simtit din nou putin rebela.



Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend
Keep you in the dark
And so it all began

Send in your skeletons
Sing as their bones go marching in... again
The need you buried deep
The secrets that you keep are ever ready
Are you ready?
I'm finished making sense
Done pleading ignorance
That whole defense

Spinning infinity, boy
The wheel is spinning me
It's never-ending, never-ending
Same old story

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

In time or so I'm told
I'm just another soul for sale... oh, well
The page is out of print
We are not permanent
We're temporary, temporary
Same old story

I'm the voice inside your head
You refuse to hear
I'm the face that you have to face
Mirrored in your stare
I'm what's left, I'm what's right
I'm the enemy
I'm the hand that will take you down
Bring you to your knees

Dar cu si mai mare placere le-am ascultat melodiile in versiunea Acoustic, care suna la fel de bine si pot fi apreciate si de cei carora sound-ul heavy metal nu le starneste interesul. 



I am a one way motorway
I'm the road that drives away
then follows you back home
I am a street light shining
I'm a white light blinding bright
burning off and on

it's times like these you learn to live again
it's times like these you give and give again
it's times like these you learn to love again
it's times like these time and time again

I am a new day rising
I'm a brand new sky
to hang the stars upon tonight
I am a little divided
do I stay or run away
and leave it all behind?

Poate ca fanii "Nirvana" vor comenta ca grupul are mai multe albume vandute intr-n timp mai scurt decat Foo Fighters, insa eu cred ca cele doua trupe nu pot fi comparate. Nirvana a fost un fenomen la vremea ei, consacrand curentul "grunge", dar nu pot sa nu ma bucur ca dupa moartea lui Kurt Cobain, Dave Grohl a gasit resursele de a-si afirma in continuare talentul cu Foo Fighters. 

Poate mai putin cunoscuta pe la noi este intamplarea prin care un miner prins in subteran intr-un accident din Tasmania - Australia, asteptand sa fie salvat de colegii sai, dupa ce au reusit sa comunice cu salvatorii si li s-a putut trimite mancare si apa printr-o conducta, cand a fost intrebat ce mai doreste sa primeasca, a cerut un iPod pe care sa fie melodii Foo Fighters. Dave Grohl a fost foarte emotionat sa afle acest lucru si i-a invitat pe cei doi mineri care-au supravietuit accidentului la concertele trupei in Australia si la o bere dupa. Surpriza pe care i-a facut-o minerului a fost si mai mare; pentru ei a compus melodia instrumentala "Ballad of the Beaconsfield miners" pe care a cantat-o in concertele australiene si a inregistrat-o pe urmatorul sau album cu talentata chitarista Kaki King.



Foo Fighters a lansat un nou album luna trecuta (Sonic Highways), asa ca am ce asculta in decembrie. Incep cu prima melodie de pe album, "Something from Nothing":



Give me the flammable life
I'm cold as a match 
Ready to strike
So here I go...

Here lies a city on fire
Singing along
The arsonist choir
Now here I go...

It started with a spark
And burned into the dark
Now here I go...

There is a river I found
Into the wild
Under the ground
So here I go...

A button on a string
And I heard everything
Now here I go...

Oh sweet ignition be my fuse
You have no choice you have to choose
Bid farewell to yesterday
Say goodbye I'm on my way

But in the end we all
Come from what's come before
So here I go...

Oh sweet ignition be my fuse
You have no choice you have to choose
Bid farewell to yesterday
Say goodbye I'm on my way
I threw it all away because
I had to be what never was
Been so hungry I could lie
You took my word I took your wine 
And held you in my bloody hands
These rattled bones and rubber bands
Washed them in the muddy water
Looking for a dime and found a quarter
But you can't make me change my name
You'll never make me change my name
Pay no mind now ain't that something
Fuck it all! I came from nothing

I'm something 
From nothing
You are my fuse
I'm something 
From nothing
You are my fuse
It goes...

Weekend placut!
