Simple Song

The Shins, los chicos de Albuquerque, están de vuelta. El nuevo y deslumbrante single de los de New Mexico, se editó el pasado día 10 de enero y lleva por título: Simple Song. Una vez más nos vuelven a emocionar hasta decir "basta", con un sencillo rotundo e impactante. La edición del esperado nuevo álbum "Port of Morrow", será un par de meses más tarde, el 20 de marzo.  Pero mientras tanto, sube el volumen de tu receptor hasta que te echen de casa, porque darle al play no cuesta nada y además te lo agradecerá tu alma.
Párate a leer su letra, interioralizala, y descubrirás que detenerse en los malos momentos no es más que una escusa para perder el tiempo.

Si un año comienza con un tema así es signo inequívoco de que las cosas van a ir bien. A pesar de tanta cantinela de que serán malos tiempos, con la sencillez como bandera y una canción como himno, nada ni nadie te podrá parar.

Javier Mateos.

Well this is just a simple song

to say ‘what you done?’

I told you about all those fears

and away they did run

you sure must be strong

and you feel like an ocean

being warmed by the sun.

When I was just nine years old

I swear that I dreamt

your face on a football field

and a kiss that I kept

under my vest

apart from everything, the heart in my chest

chorus:

I know that things can really get rough when you go it alone

don’t go thinking you gotta be tough, complete like a stone

could be there’s nothing else in our lives so critical

as this little hope!

as this little hole. ‎

My life in an action boat, marooned on a cliff

you brought me a great big flood

and you gave me a lift

oh what a gift!

you tell me with your tongue

and your breath goes in the lungs

and the flow that filled the rift

chorus:

I know that things can really get rough when you go in love

don’t go thinking you gotta be tough, complete like a stone

could be there’s nothing else in our lives so critical

as this little hope!

Well this will be a simple song to say what you’ve done

I told you about all those years and away they did run

and where they did wrong

you sure must be strong

and you feel like an ocean

being warmed by the sun.

Remember walking a mile to your house that glow in the dark

I made a fumbling play for your heart and the extra of the spark

you wore a charm in a chain that I stole specially for you

love’s such a delicate thing that we do , we’ve nothing to prove,

which I never knew.
