NOVA GRAMÁTICA VINDA DE LONDRES

O nome do grupo é improvável, algo estranho. Todavia, por estes dias, a música do grupo inglês LONDON GRAMMAR tem um sabor intenso, novo. 

Sabe a viagem pela profundeza do universo e do tempo. Mas é proposta de futuro também. Misto de melancolia sideral e de apelo energético, com uma economia de meios totalmente surpreendente. Música primordial, enervante, desconcertante. E, claro, há a voz de Hanna. Imaterial. Emoção pura.

Energia arrebatadora, que é um convite à urgência de viver. O vosso Capitão adotou esta nova e empolgante nova gramática londrina.

Vale mesmo a pena ouvir. De entre um mar de preciosidades, destaco a canção Strong do álbum If You Wait. Haja força para vencer, apesar das fraquezas. Por estes dias, sinto-me inglês.

Strong

Excuse me for a while
While I'm wide-eyed
And I'm so down caught in the middle
I've excused you for a while
While I'm wide-eyed
And I'm so down caught in the middle

And a lion, a lion, roars would you not listen?
If a child, a child cries would you not forgive them?

Yeah, I might seem so strong
Yeah, I might speak so long
I've never been so wrong
I might seem so strong
Yeah, I might speak so long
I've never been so wrong

Excuse me for a while,
Turn a blind eye
With a stare caught right in the middle
Have you wondered for a while
I have a feeling deep down?
You're caught in the middle

If a lion, a lion roars would you not listen?
If a child, a child cries would you not forgive them?

Yeah, I might seem so strong
Yeah, I might speak so long
I've never been so wrong
I might seem so strong
Yeah, I might speak so long
I've never been so wrong

Excuse me for a while
While I'm wide-eyed
And I'm so down caught in the middle
Have you wondered for a while
I have a feeling deep down?
You're caught in the middle

Yeah, I might seem so strong
Yeah, I might speak so long
I've never been so wrong
I might seem so strong
Yeah, I might speak so long
I've never been so wrong
