Domenica 27 Marzo 2005: Missing



Il nuovo disco di Beck, Guero (Geffen), ci ho messo un po' per capire se mi piace. Non è un brutto disco, ma molto "già sentito". Contiene però una traccia bellissima, costruita attorno a un campionamento di un brano scritto da Vinicius De Moraes e Carlos Eduardo Lyra. Si intitola Missing e dice tra l'altro:

"I prayed Heaven today
would bring its hammer down on me
and pound you out of my head
I can't think with you in it

something always takes the place
of missing pieces
you can take and put together even though
you know there's always something missing

I'm walking along with my boots full of rocks
I can't believe these tears were mine
I'll give them to you to put away in a box

something always takes the place of
missing pieces you can take and put
together even though
you know there's something missing

something always missing always
someone missing something".
