The Cure – A Forest – Charlotte Sometimes.

The Cure, uno de los grupos que he seguido desde siempre. Pongo Aqui los videos de los 2 temas que puedo decir que mas me gustan. Son de la epoca neopunk, cuando eran chavalitos, cuando pienso, que el grupo tenia mucha garra.

Siguió despues haciendo buenas cosas, como el disco Disintegration, que para mi gusto es la obra maestra del grupo, aunque pienso que tambien ha tenido discos mas bien malos, como para mi gusto es el bloodflowers, “The Cure”, es el último que ha sacado, es de los mas subrealistas, la verdad que al señor Robert Smith, se le fue un poco la pelota, pero la verdad que no esta nada mal…

Bueno aqui dejo mi opinioncilla sobre un grupo que llevo muchos años escuchando.

Muchas veces, cuando veia en Madrid, las niñas de 17 años Asi llamadas “Goticas”, dan la impresion que es una nueva moda, que han creado ellos, no se, igual me equivoco, pero nada mas lejos, que esas tendencias a la muerte, a lo gotico y a los temas de los cementerios, los fantasmas y a lo oculto en general, ya hacia tiempo que ya estaba inventado, un ejemplo claro, era la musica de los cure, y que mejor tema que lo refleja como “Charlotte Sometimes”, un tema que trata sobre un fantasma de una chica en un castillo.

Aqui pongo los videos:

A Forest, el video Original

Una buena version del mismo tema, pero unplugged.

Aqui pongo el video de Charlotte Sometimes.

A forest Lyrics
Artist(Band):The Cure

Come closer and see
See into the trees
Find the girl
While you can
Come closer and see
See into the dark
Just follow your eyes
Just follow your eyes

I hear her voice
Calling my name
The sound is deep
In the dark
I hear her voice
And start to run
Into the trees
Into the trees

Into the trees

Suddenly I stop
But I know it’s too late
I’m lost in a forest
All alone
The girl was never there
It’s always the same
I’m running towards nothing
Again and again and again

Charlotte Sometimes Lyrics
Artist(Band):The Cure

all the faces
all the voices blur
change to one face
change to one voice
prepare yourself for bed
the light seems bright
and glares on white walls
all the sounds of
charlotte sometimes
into the night with
charlotte sometimes

night after night she lay alone in bed
her eyes so open to the dark
the streets all looked so strange
they seemed so far away
but charlotte did not cry

the people seemed so close
playing expressionless games
the people seemed
so close
so many
other names…

sometimes i’m dreaming
where all the other people dance
sometimes i’m dreaming
charlotte sometimes
sometimes i’m dreaming
expressionless the trance
sometimes i’m dreaming
so many different names
sometimes i’m dreaming
the sounds all stay the same
sometimes i’m dreaming
she hopes to open shadowed eyes
on a different world
come to me
scared princess
charlotte sometimes

on that bleak track
(see the sun is gone again)
the tears were pouring down her face
she was crying and crying for a girl
who died so many years before…

sometimes i dream
where all the other people dance
sometimes i dream
charlotte sometimes
sometimes i dream
the sounds all stay the same
sometimes i’m dreaming
there are so many different names
sometimes i dream
sometimes i dream…

charlotte sometimes crying for herself
charlotte sometimes dreams a wall around herself
but it’s always with love
with so much love it looks like
everything else
of charlotte sometimes
so far away
glass sealed and pretty
charlotte sometimes
