Miércoles - 80s
(1983)
Hace mucho tiempo escuché (descrubrí) esta canción en la radio. Me gustó mucho, sobre todo por el coro. Tiene algo de melancolía y profundidad, pero con la tonada de aquellos tiempos alegres como eran los ochenta, por lo menos en cuanto a música se refiere. Yo admiro a Elton John, este tema tal vez no sea uno de los más populares de su repertorio como Sacrtifice, Candle in the Wind y 50 primeros lugares más, pero la estética y dinámica del video son geniales.
"I'm still standing" del álbum Too low for zero, es como un himno de superpoder, que te da energía y fuerza. Tal vez es una reafirmación del propio Elton.
El video dirigido por Russell Mulcahy y grabado en Cannes y Nice.
Me gustaría ver un día de estos a un grupo de baile como éste en la playa, soñar no cuesta.
Enjoy!
You could never know what it's like
Your blood like winter freezes just like ice
And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you
Youll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use
And did you think this fool could never win
Well look at me, Im coming back again
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know while Im still standing you just fade away
Don't you know Im still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
Im still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
Im still standing yeah yeah yeah
Im still standing yeah yeah yeah
Once I never could hope to win
You starting down the road leaving me again
The threats you made were meant to cut me down
And if our love was just a circus you'd be a clown by now
Your blood like winter freezes just like ice
And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you
Youll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use
And did you think this fool could never win
Well look at me, Im coming back again
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know while Im still standing you just fade away
Don't you know Im still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
Im still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
Im still standing yeah yeah yeah
Im still standing yeah yeah yeah
Once I never could hope to win
You starting down the road leaving me again
The threats you made were meant to cut me down
And if our love was just a circus you'd be a clown by now
