Aquest cop la cançó del mes per poc no ho és. Sento no haver pujat abans cap cançó i tot i que tinc moltes excusesno en penso utilitzar cap. No costa res oferir-vos una cançó no?
Doncs aprofitant que a USA ha sigut Thanksgiving (ja sabeu aquella festivitat on es menja gall dindi i que sempre té un episodi a cada sèrie/pel·lícula que es faci) he decidit posar una cançó que podria ser idònia. I buscant per la xarxa i d’altres, i després de sentir algunes cançons em plau presentar-vos el guanyador d’aquest mes:
Keith Urban i la seva cançó Thank you.
Una cançó que dóna gràcies, element imprescindible en la celebració. Què potser li dediqui a la Kidman però s’ha de mirar el rerefons de la lletra. No ho sé, és suau, amb piano i bateria fent la base…simple però que funciona. La corda de fons. I la veu mig trencada d’Urban. Us deixo la lletra en anglès, si algú vol que la tradueixi que avisi i en un moment (potser una mica més) la fico a continuació. (Jo no tinc tanta iniciativa com l’Adela i em fa més mandra traduir, i si no és necessari…)
There were nights where I was sure
I wouldn’t see the morning sun
And there were days that seemed so dark
I couldn’t wait for night to come
I couldn’t stand to think about how
My life used to be
And how without a single warning
It all slipped away from me
Like a fool I thought I could fight
The shadows on my own
To the dark I was no stranger
But this was stronger than I’d known
And by the time I knew that I was too deep I’d gone too far
And the light that used to guide me
Had faded from my heart
And I found myself in places I thought I’d never go
Surrounded by stangers I was so far away from home
And I don’t know how you found me
All I know is I owe you everything
Yes I do[Chorus]
And I thank you for my heart
I thank you for my life
And I thank god for grace and mercy
And that you became my wife
I’m seeing for the first time
The stars, the sun and moon
But they’ve got nothing on the power
Of this love I have for you
And I thank you, thank youNow people say they’ll never stand beside you
They swear they never leave
But when the rain started falling
You know it only fell on me
When all I felt was so much pain and guilt and shame
I couldn’t even as for help
I don’t know if I believe in other lives
But when you came
There was something so familar
About the way you said my name
And the whole world started turning
And I swear that I’d been born againbrand new
And it’s all because of you[Chorus]
And I’ve seen so many things
That I just can’t explain
But the miracle of miracles is how
With your love I was saved
And I thank you for my heart
I thank you for my life
I thank god for grace and mercy
And that you became my wife
The day I started breathing
Was the day you took my hand
And ’til the day I die
Baby
I’ll forever be your man
And I thank you, I thank you
Maria
