BETWEEN THE BARS. Elliott Smith

La primera vegada que vaig sentir parlar d'aquest tio va ser quan vaig saber que havien agafat un grapat de cançons seves per a la banda sonora de la peli "Good Will Hunting". Després un amic em va gravar un disc i 'here we go'. Va ser una sorpresa molt interessant. No sé si haureu vist la peli, però penso que lliga perfectament amb l'esperit de la mateixa. Per cert, avui no tradueixo. Em fa molta mandra (i a més a més, també la trobo una mica perifràstica). Espero que, si no el coneixieu, que us agradi aquest tema. Salut

"Drink up, baby, stay up all night. The things you could do, you won't but you might. The potential you'll be that you'll never see. The promises you'll only make. Drink up with me now and forget all about the pressure of days. Do what I say and I'll make you okay and drive them away. The images stuck in your head.
People you've been before that you don't want around anymore, that push and shove and won't bend to your will. I'll keep them still.
Drink up, baby, look at the stars, I'll kiss you again, between the bars where I'm seeing you, there with your hands in the air waiting to finally be caught. Drink up one more time and I'll make you mine. Keep you apart deep in my heart separate from the rest. Where I like you the best and keep the things you forgot.
The people you've been before that you don't want around anymore that push and shove and won't bend to your will I'll keep them still."
