doce años después

mi canción favorita de todas todas no tenía nombre. estaba grabada de la radio por casualidad en una cinta desde hace 12 años. sólo sabía que era de un grupo llamado heavenly. pensaba que el título de la canción era hopeless, pero no. se llama atta girl y la encontré gracias a la página http://www.twee.net/bands/heavenly/ , aunque la canción era más antigua, yo la descubrí cuando salió como single 7" en agosto de 1993 con esta portada tan bonita. la canción tiene algo especial, hay un momento en el que cathy y amelia cantan a la vez dos letras distintas. y ese final...

Cathy's part :Yeah I always act so dumbseem to fuck things up for funjust can't stop myself behavinglike my head needs rearrangingi loved you a bit too muchyeah but shouldn't you be touched?Seems that all i try to doIs thrown back in my face by youWhy do you need other friends?All those boys have their own endsYou just flirt and stay out drunk lateTill Im hurt and feel such dumb hatei loved you from when we metthat's a night i won't forgetyou came up i was so shyi spilled my drink and almost criedthen after we'd been in lovefor a year you'd had enoughUpped and left and walked out on meWho's have guessed you'd turn out so mean?What did I ever get from you?Not enough to see me throughNever ever love enoughFor confidence to make me toughHoney please come back I miss youyeah come here so i can kiss youand i know you wanted this toooh no please come back or i'll diedo you want to make a girl cryor at least can't you tell me why?You keep treating me like a fucking idiotBut I love you too muchO I don't know

Amelia's part: When you act so hopelessHopelessly in loveIn fact I forgetForget you're grown upNo I could never live up to all your dreamsI don't have to be cute right through andCan't you concentrate on something other than me?Cos I'm not yoursAnd never will be nowYou've shown me how you areIf I speak to anotherOh can't you seeYou've shown me how you areYou're jealous and how farYou tried so hard to smotherWhen we metI thought thatthat you were my dreambut yet it now seemsseems you turned out meanhow did you ever deserve so much from me?I don't need you or your attitude andCan't you just forget now that you ever met me?FUCK YOU NO WAY I DONT HAVE TO DONT HAVE TO EXPLAIN

ya puedo seguir viviendo

hihihihi, entiendo muy bien lo que "sufriste" y teniendo en cuenta tu grado de melomanía, imagino la incertidumbre (noche sin dormir, pesadillas...)
Algo así me pasó con la canción de Feist pero tú me lo resolviste muy pronto :)

si quieres escuchar algo más de uno de los grupos paralelos de Heavenly, Marine Research, espera a que llegue a León y te paso el CD (original). de Heavenly es la cacnión "poppy girl" que versioneaba vacaciones. ay, es que Amelia es guay
