Feist - Mushaboom (Let It Die)

Hace tiempo que veo (y sigo fijándome en) un estúpido anuncio de colonia con una música deliciosa.
El tiempo y el azar me dan a conocer el último álbum de Feist - The Reminder, y al investigar me encuentro con esta joya de mujer y el álbum -Let It Die- en el que viene este tema.

Sigo investigando y veo que todo el mundo (menos yo) conoce a esta Canadiense que tocó en el grupo punk Placebo (otro Placebo),o en Peaches y que además de Lacoste también se uso su genial Gatekeeper para un anuncio de un banco, o que colaboró con una sátira :-( de una canción de navidad, a beneficio de UNICEF, o que rechazó un millón de dólares de McDonalds por los derechos de Mushaboom...


Bueno no es tarde para deleitarse con cualquier tema de este álbum en el que esa voz clara y al estilo francés (no obstante se grabó en Francia) nos mece. Mushaboom es la más pegadiza, y el resto se quedan a vivir contigo. Escucha el album completo por favor


Helping the kids out of their coats
Oh wait the babies haven't been born oh
Unpacking the bags and setting up
And planting lilacs and buttercups oh

But in the meantime we've got it hard
Second floor living without a yard
It may be years until the day
My dreams will match up with my pay

Old dirt road,
(mushaboom, mushaboom)
knee deep snow
(mushaboom, mushaboom)
Watching the fire as we grow
(mushaboom, mushaboom)
o-o-o-o-old

I got a man to stick it out
And make a home from a rented house oh
And we'll collect the moments one by one
I guess that's how the future's done oh

How many acres, how much light
Tucked in the woods and out of sight
Talk to the neighbours and tip my cap
On a little road barely on the map

Old dirt road,
mushaboom, mushaboom)
knee deep snow
mushaboom, mushaboom)
Watching the fire as we grow,
mushaboom, mushaboom)
o-o-o-o-old
(mushaboom, mushaboom)
Old dirt road rambling rose
(mushaboom, mushaboom)
Watching the fire as we grow
(mushaboom, mushaboom)
Well I'm Sold...



Feist - Gatekeeper (en directo, del album Let It Die)



Well it's time to begin as the summer sets in
It's the scene
You set for new lovers
You play your part painting in a new start
But each gate will open another

June July and August said
"It's probably hard to plan ahead"
June July and August said
"It's better to bask in each others"

Gatekeeper seasons wait for your nod
Gatekeeper you held your breath
Made the summer go on and on

Well they tried to stay in from the cold and wind
Making love and making their dinner
Only to find that the love that they grew in the summer
Froze

February April said
"Don't be fooled by the summer again"
February April said
"That half of the year, well we'll never be friends"

Gatekeeper seasons wait for your nod
Gatekeeper you held your breath
Made the winter go on and on

Gatekeeper, Gatekeeper, Gatekeeper
Seasons wait for your nod
