El título de estas entradas corresponde a un verso de "El blues de la soledad", de Miguel Ríos, y siempre que pienso en ese término del soundtrack de una vida lo recuerdo.
Creo que la siguiente canción deja una intensa sensación de tristeza en quien la escucha (por causa, sospecho, de la película que sonoriza), y sin embargo a mí me pone de un humor inmejorable. Es la primera canción que Nereida y yo pudimos considerar como nuestra canción (la de Chelsea Hotel es otra de ellas), y creo que por esa y muchas cosas más se merece un lugar privilegiado en esta banda sonora.



2.- The Blower's Daughter, de Demian Rice

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...
'Til I find somebody new
