...on all my violence is gone...
De tornada, sota els efectes d’aquest estiu ferotge, mirant la tele, retrobo ahir aquesta cançó que avui sona de forma obsessiva al meu cap.
Al reportatge d’ahir, li pregunten a Damon Albarn si la cançó parla de l’heroïna, i respon amb un evasiu “quina importància té això?”, que és com dir que si. De fet, el que importa és allò que a nosaltres ens suggereix la bellesa de la cançó, la seva laxa sensualitat.
Avui, de forma obsessiva, sona al meu cap Beetlebum de Blur.
Beetlebum
What you done
She's a gun
Now what you've done
Beetlebum
Get nothing done
You beetlebum
Just get numb
Now what you've done
Beetlebum
And when she lets me slip away
She turns me on all my violence is gone
Nothing is wrong, I just slip away and I am gone
Nothing is wrong, she turns me on
Beetlebum
Because you're young
She's a gun
Now what you've done
Beetlebum
She'll suck your thumb
She'll make you come
Coz, she's your gun
Now what you've done
Beetlebum
He's on, he's on, he's on it
Beetlebum (Blur, 1997)
