Sweet music...

A pedido de algumas famílias aqui fica mais uma amostra do, quanto a mim, fabuloso álbum de Ayreon, "The Human Equation". Esta faixa corresponde ao dia 13 de coma. Após uma longa viagem á sua infância, adolescência e inicio de idade adulta, em que se toma consciência do porquê de certas atitudes e traços de personalidade do protagonista (nomeado Me)... uma infância difícil com um pai horrível, os problemas de adaptação na escola, deixaram as suas marcas... a viagem no subconsciente continua, de modo a conseguir a sua redenção pessoal.
Ao 13º dia, estão, no Hospital com "Me", a Mulher e o Melhor Amigo...
Para mim, o melhor minuto de TODO o álbum é quando a Mulher lhe fala (2:07)... posso jurar-vos que fico absolutamente arrepiado com a musica, a letra e a interpretação da cantora que Arjen Lucassen (o génio por detrás do álbum) escolheu para esse papel: Marcela Bovio. No final, quase que consigo vê-la a cantar e a sorrir... Numa onda muito lamecha, chego mesmo a dizer que delirava se alguém assim me cantasse alguma coisa semelhante... Enjoy!


[Love]: Faith has come to warn
That you far to long forsaken her heart...

Move to the truth,
Breath the sunlight burning in her open arms!...

Break the chains that
Bind you to a past that feeds this bitter days...

Seize your only chance,
Follow the stars that beckon you through blackened skies...

Wife: Can you feel me touch your aching heart?
I can sense how much you're missing me...

Give me a sign, show me you're there!!
I am sure you'll find a way back to me!...

[Me]: I can't believe I turned so vile!...
How could I've ignored her smile?
She was always there to easy my pain...
I am so ashamed...

I wonder why she stayed with me?...
How she endured my vanity?...
I wish I could go back and mend my ways...
Is it too late?

Wife: Can you see, I swear it's true, a teardrop trickling down his cheek?
Best Friend: Yes, indeed, I see it too, could it be he's hurting inside?
Wife: Don't you think we should be glad he feels anything at all?
Best Friend: It could well be he cries because of us
Wife: Does it matter why he cries?
Best Friend: What's going on in his mind?
Wife: Has he's given us a sign?

Wife: Can you see, I swear it's true, him clenching his right hand into a fist?
Best Friend: Yes, indeed, I see it too, could it be that he's raging inside?
Wife: Don't you think we should be glad he has any thoughts at all?
Best Friend: It could well be he angry because of us
Wife: Does it matter if he is?
Best Friend: What's going on in his mind?
Wife: Has he's given us a sign?
