Llegamos al décimo segmento musical de 19938, hace 20 años,
cuando el que escribe contaba con 30 años de edad. En esta oportunidad, tenemos
dos muy buenas canciones de un gran grupo norteamericano, que se presentó en
Lima en noviembre del 2008. Me refiero la banda liderada por Michael Stipe:
R.E.M.


When your
day is long and the night
The night is
yours alone
When you're
sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on
Don't let
yourself go
Everybody
cries and everybody hurts sometimes
Sometimes
everything is wrong
Now it's
time to sing along
When your
day is night alone (hold on, hold on)
If you feel
like letting go (hold on)
When you
think you've had too much of this life, well hang on
Everybody
hurts
Take comfort
in your friends
Everybody hurts
Don't throw
your hand Oh, no
Don't throw
your hand
If you feel
like you're alone, no, no, no, you are not alone
If you're on
your own in this life
The days and
nights are long
When you
think you've had too much of this life to hang on
Well,
everybody hurts sometimes
Everybody
cries
And
everybody hurts sometimes
And
everybody hurts sometimes
So, hold on,
hold on
Hold on,
hold on
Hold on,
hold on
(Hold on,
hold on)
Everybody hurts

Este ha sido el décimo segmento musical dedicado a 1993. Espero
que estos dos muy buenos temas hayan sido de su agrado y como siempre, los espero
con sus visitas y comentarios. Y como un plus de este gran álbum de R.E.M, los
dejo con el video del tema “Drive”. Hasta el próximo mes de Noviembre, en donde
tendremos dos canciones de dos recordados grupos, que tuvieron mucho éxito hace
20 años. Será hasta el miércoles 27 de Noviembre. Hasta entonces.
