"La parte más trágica de la vida de Eric Clapton"
|
|
|
COPE
Normalmente cuando traigo artistas o grupos de la década de los 60 o de los 70, solemos hablar sobre sus períodos de esplendor, sobre sus inicios y sus grandes ventas en números o bien de la llegada a las listas.
Hoy vamos a hacer algo distinto. Vamos a repasar la parte más trágica de la carrera de uno de los grandes artistas que nació también a la falda de esos años. Hablo del gran Eric Clapton.
Desde la trágica muerte de su hijo en accidente se refugió en la música y dejó las drogas de las que había sido adicto y compuso grandes e interesantes temas y en el nuevo formato "unplugged".

Eric Clapton - "Cocaine"
Cocaine
If you wanna hang out you've got to take her out
Cocaine
If you wanna get down, down on the ground
Cocaine
She don't lie
She don't lie
She don't lie
Cocaine
If you got bad news, you wanna kick them blues
Cocaine
When your day is done and you wanna run
Cocaine
She don't lie
She don't lie
She don't lie
Cocaine
If your thing is gone, and you wanna ride on
Cocaine
Don't forget this fact, you can't get it back
Cocaine
She don't lie
She don't lie
She don't lie
Cocaine
She don't lie
She don't lie
She don't lie
Cocaine
Eric Clapton - "The shape you're in"
The shape you're in
I took my baby to see a show.
She was telling me she didn't want to go.
I said, "Come on girl, what's the matter with you?"
But I could tell by the smell that she'd had a few.
I said hold on girl don't get too tight,
You started early and we've got all night.
You've got to take it easy, take it slow.
We don't want the whole world to know
About the shape you're in.
Well, my little girl really loves that wine.
Wine will do it to her most everytime.
If it's red or it's white or it's in between,
She can drink more wine than I've ever seen.
Now I'm not trying to get heavy with you.
I'll mind my own business if you want me to.
But I love you girl, I don't love no one else.
I'm just telling you baby 'cause I've been there myself
Eric Clapton - "Wonderfull tonight"
Wonderfull tonight
It's late in the evening
She's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make up
And brushes her long blonde hair
And then she asks me, "Do I look alright?"
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight"
We go to a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
That's walking around with me
And then she asks me, "Do you feel alright?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight"
I feel wonderful
Because I see the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you
It's time to go home now
And I've got an aching head
So I give her the car keys
She helps me to bed
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light
I say, "My darling, you are wonderful tonight"
Oh my darling, you are wonderful tonight
Eric Clapton - "Tears in heaven"
Tears in heaven
Would you know my name?
If I saw you in heaven
Would it be the same?
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong
And carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven
Would you hold my hand?
If I saw you in heaven
Would you help me stand?
If I saw you in heaven
I'll find my way
Through night and day
'Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven
Time can bring you down
Time can bend your knees
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please
Begging please
Beyond the door
There's peace, I'm sure
And I know there'll be no more
Tears in heaven
Would you know my name?
If I saw you in heaven
Would you be the same?
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong
And carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven
Eric Clapton - "Layla"
Layla
What will you do when you get lonely
And no one's waiting by your side?
You've been running and hiding much too long
You know it's just your foolish pride
Layla
You've got me on my knees, Layla
Begging darling please, Layla
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
Tried to give you consolation
When your old man, he let you down
Like a fool, I fell in love with you
You turned my whole world upside down
Layla
You've got me on my knees, Layla
Begging darling please, Layla
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
Make the best of the situation
Before I finally go insane
Please don't say we'll never find a way
Or tell me all my love's in vain
Layla
You've got me on my knees, Layla
Begging darling please, Layla
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
