Coffee & TV

En esta espiral de actualizaciones que parece no acabar nunca, os traigo otra canción. Esta vez le toca el turno a una de mis bandas favoritas de toda la vida, los británicos Blur. Este tema, me viene que ni pintado hoy. Hoy que parece que nada es casualidad. Hoy que parece que todo está encadenado. Estrenado hace ya casi diez años, allá por 1999, vino acompañado de un simpático vídeo que me encantó desde la primera vez que lo vi. Un vídeo que está lleno de significado y que es el complemento perfecto para la canción.

Para los que no sepáis quién son deciros que Damon Albarn, la voz de Blur, es co-creador del conocido grupo virtual Gorillaz, al que también da voz.

Sin más dilación...

"Coffee & TV" - Blur


Do you feel like a chain store?
Practically floored
One of many zeros
Kicked around bored
Your ears are full but you're empty
Holding out your heart
To people who never really
Care how you are

So give me Coffee and TV
History
I've seen so much
I'm going blind
And i'm braindead virtually
Sociability
It's hard enough for me
Take me away from this big bad world
And agree to marry me
So we can start all over again

Do you go to the country?
It isn't very far
There's people there who will hurt you
Cos of who you are

Your ears are full of the language
There's wisdom there you're sure
'Til the words start slurring
And you can't find the door

So give me Coffee and TV
History
I've seen so much
I'm going blind
And i'm braindead virtually
Sociability
It's hard enough for me
Take me away from this big bad world
And agree to marry me
So we can start all over again

So give me Coffee and TV
History
I've seen so much
I'm going blind
And i'm braindead virtually
Sociability
It's hard enough for me
Take me away from this big bad world
And agree to marry me
So we can start all over again

Oh...we could start over again
Oh...we could start over again
Oh...we could start over again
Oh...we could start over again
