Bitter Sweet Symphony by The Verve.

Considerada "la melodía más bonita del mundo" (y, creo yo, con más de medio mundo de acuerdo); Bitter Sweet Symphony es un verdadero himno para muchas generaciones, y una canción muy valiosa por la calidad de su letra y el mensaje que quiere transmitir.

Con un sinfín de problemas por derechos de autor, demandas, peleas y hasta separaciones; el single llegó a posicionarse en el número 382 como Mejor Canción de la Historia.

Espero que disfrutes esta canción y puedas reflexionar sobre la letra y el vídeo pues, en palabras de Richard Ashcroft,  quiere darnos a entender cuán defraudante y viciosa es la maldita sociedad. Preciso.

Aquí te pasamos el vídeo y la letra:

'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony, this life
Trying to make ends meet
You're a slave to money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
Where all the veins meet yeah

No change, I can't change
I can't change, I can't change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
But I'm a million different people
From one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no, no, no

Well I never pray
But tonight I'm on my knees yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
But the airways are clean and there's nobody singing to me now

No change, I can't change
I can't change, I can't change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
From one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
I can't change
I can't change it

'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony, this life
Trying to make ends meet
Trying to find some money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
Where all the veins meet yeah

You know I can't change, I can't change
I can't change, I can't change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
From one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no

I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no,
I can't change
Can't change my body,
No, no, no

I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
Been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
That you've ever been down
That you've ever been down
