E hoje...para algo completamente diferente..

...vamos falar do Sr. Roy Orbison

E porquê? Porque sim...porque me apetece!

E apetece-me por uma razão muito simples, aliás a palavra é mesmo "simples", porque se analisarmos as letras das músicas deste senhor elas são estupidamente simples e por isso tenho uma inveja enorme do que ele escreveu, porque não é preciso ser-se um erudito para compreender a objectividade do que ele diz.
Mas também acho que qualquer que fosse outra voz a cantar, as letras deixaram de ter a beleza que têm e passariam a ser um chorrilho de lamechices pegada...

Aqui vai o exemplo...
(You Got It)
Every time I look into your lovely eyes,
I see a love that money just can't buy.
One look from you, I drift away.
I pray that you are here to stay.

Anything you want, you got it.
Anything you need, you got it.
Anything at all, you got it.
Baby!

Every time I hold you I begin to understand,
Everything about you tells me I'm your man.
I live my life to be with you.
No one can do the things you do.
Anything you want, you got it.
Anything you need, you got it.
Anything at all, you got it.
Baby!
Anything you want
Anything you need
Anything at all

I'm glad to give my love to you.
I know you feel the way I do.
Anything you want, you got it.
Anything you need, you got it.
Anything at all, you got it.
Baby!
Anything you want, you got it
Anything you need, you got it
Anything at all, you got it
Baby
Anything at all
Baby
You got it

E agora uma das músicas mais tristes que conheço (Crying)

Roy: I was all right for a while
I could smile for a while
KD: But I saw you last night
You held my hand so tight
When you stopped to say hello
Roy: You wished me well
You couldn't tell that
I've been crying over you,
crying over you And you said "So long"
Left me standing all alone,
alone and crying, crying, crying, crying
It's hard to understand
KD: But the touch of your hand can start me crying

Roy: I thought that I was over you
But it's true, so true
I love you even more than I did before
But darling, what can I do?
For you don't love me
KD: And I'll always be
crying over you, crying over you

Roy: Yes now you're gone
Both: And from this moment on, I'll be crying, crying, crying, crying
Yeah, crying, crying over you
