Un clásico - It's so much better goin' nowhere fast



Streets of Fire, del gran Walter Hill, asignatura pendiente para mi amigo Mar.

Edito y agrego algo más:
Esta película es un clásico de Walter Hill, es de 1984. La muchachita que canta, es la hermosa Diane Lane, quien para ese entonces venía de filmar dos películas Del señor Coppola: The Outsiders y otro clásico: Rumble Fish (qué cast el de esas dos pelis).
Esta película, que tiene un soundtrack muy recomendable, es co-protagonizada por Michael Paré, que como dijo mi amigo Mar, escribo textual: "es galan de pelis pedorras", pero está muy bueno. También participaban Rick Moranis, el eterno Bill Paxton y ese señor que me encanta y aparece muuuy jovencito en el final del video: Willem Dafoe.

NOWHERE FAST - Fire Inc.
Lying in your bed and on a Saturday night
You're sweatin' buckets and it's not even hot
But your brain has got the message
And it's sending it out
To every nerve and every muscle you've got

You've got so many dreams
That you don't know where to put 'em
So you'd better turn a few of 'em loose
Your body's got a feeling that it's starting to rust
You'd better rev it up and put it to use

And I don't know how I ever thought that I could make it all alone
When you only make it better
And it better be tonight
And we'll fly away on those angel wings of chrome in your daddy's car
Waiting there for you tonight
I'll be there for you tonight

Even if you don't have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you're ready to roll
And even if you don't have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you're ready to roll
And your speed
Is all you'll ever need
All you'll ever need to know
Darlin', Darlin'-

You and me we're goin' nowhere slowly
And we've gotta get away from the past
There's nothin' wrong with goin' nowhere, baby
But we should be goin' nowhere fast

Everybody's goin' nowhere slowly
They're only fighting for the chance to be last
There's nothin' wrong with goin' nowhere, baby
But we should be goin' nowhere fast
It's so much better goin' nowhere fast

Ah...

Stalkin' in the shadows by the light of the moon
It's like a prison and the night is a cell
Goin' anywhere has gotta be heaven tonight
'Cause stayin' here has gotta be hell
Dyin' in the city like a fire on the water
Let's go runnin' on the back of the wind
There's gotta be some action on the face of the earth
And I've gotta see your face once again

And I don't know where I ever got the bright idea that I was cool
So alone and independent
But I'm depending on you now
And you'll always be the only thing that I just can't be without
And I'm out for you tonight
I'm comin' out for you tonight

Even if you don't have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you're ready to roll (ready to roll)
Even if you don't have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you're ready to roll
And your speed
Is all you'll ever need
All you'll ever need to know
Darlin', Darlin'-

You and me we're goin' nowhere slowly
And we've gotta get away from the past
There's nothin' wrong with goin' nowhere, baby
But we should be goin' nowhere fast

Everybody's goin' nowhere slowly
They're only fighting for the chance to be last
There's nothin' wrong with goin' nowhere, baby
But we should be goin' nowhere fast
It's so much better goin' nowhere fast

Godspeed
Godspeed
Godspeed
Speed us away!

Godspeed
Godspeed
Godspeed
Speed us away!

Godspeed
Godspeed
Godspeed
Speed us away!

(We're goin' nowhere fast!)

(Ah...)

  4. Marina! Siempre, siempre, primero es escuchar, y después tratar de entender, a veces se logra, a veces no.
    Lux! gracias, pero soy una completa analfabeta en lo que a música respecta. Me suelo dejar llevar, a veces, según los que saben, lo que me gusta es bueno, a veces no, yo me dejo llevar, es mi naturaleza.
    Yoni: qué le gustó más? el tema o la chica? Diane y ese vestuario alucinante, me encanta, realmente.
    Saludos a los tres :)

  5. cuanta verdad:

    You've got so many dreams
    That you don't know where to put 'em
    So you'd better turn a few of 'em loose
    Your body's got a feeling that it's starting to rust
    You'd better rev it up and put it to use

    Haga su camino.
