Day 3: a song that reminds you of your parents.

 Cualquiera de Duran Duran. Mi madre lleva martilleándome la cabeza con ellos desde que nací. Si tengo que elegir una, escojo The Reflex, aunque su favorita sea The Man Who Stoled a Leopard, porque es la que más recuerdo acompañando mi crianza. Creo que el mes pasado, el día 23 de junio, se cumplieron 31 años desde que alcanzó el número 1 en no sé qué lista (o al menos eso pone en la Wikipedia, yo escuché el lunes en la radio algo de que se cumplían no sé cuántos años de algo de esta canción...).

The reflex
The reflex
The reflex

You've gone too far this time
But I'm dancing on the Valentine
I tell you somebody's fooling around
With my chances on the danger line

I'll cross that bridge when I find it
Another day to make my stand, oh woah
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand, oh woah

Why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it

Oh, why don't you use it?

Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it

The reflex is an only child,

who's waiting by the park
The reflex is in charge of 

finding treasure in the dark

And watching over lucky clover,

isn't that bizarre?
And every little thing the reflex does
Leaves you answered with a question mark

I'm on a ride and I want to get off
But they won't slow down the roundabout
I sold the Renoir and TV set
Don't wanna be around when this gets out

So, why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it

Why don't you use it?

The reflex is an only child, 

he's waiting in the park
The reflex is in charge of 

finding treasure in the dark

And watching over lucky clover,

isn't that bizarre?
And every little thing the reflex does

Leaves an answer with a question mark, play

So, why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it

The reflex is an only child 

who's waiting by the park
The reflex is in charge of 

finding treasure in the dark

And watching over lucky clover, 

isn't that bizarre?
And every little thing the reflex does
Leaves me answered with a question mark

Oh, the reflex, what a game, 

he's hiding all the cards
The reflex is in charge of 

finding treasure in the dark

 Esta otra me recuerda también a ella, y a todos los padres en general, aunque ella no la haya escuchado nunca, por la letra.

I climbed off your back
Not so long ago
To a blooming meadow
To a path you'd made for the lightest feet

Mother
I am always close to you
I will be waving every time you leave
Oh, I am you
The care, the love, the memories
We are the story of one

Father
I am always close to you
I will be waving every time you leave
Oh, I am you
The care, the love, the memories
You are forever in me

This verse we wrote
On a road home
For you
All this for you
All this for you

Our walk has been sublime
A soaring ride and gentle lead
You have the heart of a true friend
One day we'll meet on that shore again

Mother
I am always close to you
I will be waving every time you leave
Oh, I am you
The care, the love, the memories
We are the story of one

Father
I am always close to you
I will be waving every time you leave
Oh, I am you
The care, the love, the memories
You are forever in me
