Mis canciones favoritas (porque son la repanocha en bicicleta, de verdad)

YELLOW MOON

Por los maravillosos Neville Brothers, de Nueva Orleans ("d´you know what it means / to miss New Orleans??..."). Escrita e interpretada por Aaron Neville. Todo el disco ("Yellow moon", 1989), producido además por el gran Daniel Lanois, es fabuloso. En esta canción en concreto fijaos, aparte de en la letra, magnífica, en la voz, la percusión y en el ardiente y penetrante saxo (ah, y el bajo, el bajo también es fastuoso!). Que os guste tanto como a nosotros, que estamos enamoraos de ella desde hace tiempo!!

"Yellow moon, yellow moon, why you keep peeping in my window? / Do you know something, do you know something / that
I don't know? / Did you see my baby / walking down the railroad tracks? / You can tell me if the girls ever coming back / Is she hid out with another / or is she trying to get back home? / Is she wrapped up in some other's arms? / Or is the girl somewhere all alone? / Can you see if she is missing me / or is she having a real good time? / Has she forgotten all about me / or is the girl still mine all mine?

With your eye so big and shiney/ You can see the whole damn land / Yellow moon, can you tell me / If the girl's with another man? Oh, oh, oh, oh...

Oh yellow moon, yellow moon / have you seen that creole woman / You can tell me / Now ain't you a friend of mine?"
