Anna Begins...

My friend assures me, "It's all or nothing." I am not worried, I am not overly concerned. My friend implores me, "For one time only, make an exception." I am not worried.
Wrap her up in a package of lies, Send her off to a coconut island. I am not worried, I am not overly concerned with the status of my emotions. "Oh," she says, "you're changing." But We're always changing... It does not bother me to say this isn't love. Because if you don't want to talk about it then it isn't love. And I guess I'm gonna have to live with that, But I'm sure there's something in a shade of grey, Or something in between, And I can always change my name If that's what you mean.
My friend assures me, "It's all or nothing." But I am not really worried, I am not overly concerned. You try to tell yourself the things you try to tell yourself To make yourself forget. To make yourself forget. I am not worried. "If it's love," she said, "then we're gonna have to think about the consequences." But she can't stop shaking and I can't stop touching her and... This time when kindness falls like rain It washes her away. And Anna begins to change her mind. "These seconds when I'm shaking leave me shuddering for days," she says. And I'm not ready for this sort of thing. But I'm not gonna break and I'm not gonna worry about it anymore. I'm not gonna bend, and I'm not gonna break. And I'm not going to worry about it anymore. It seems like I should say, "As long as this is love..." But it's not all that easy, so maybe I should Snap her up in a butterfly net and pin her down on a photograph album. I am not worried cuz I've done this sort of thing before.
But then I start to think about the consequences, And I don't get no sleep in a quiet room and... This time when kindness falls like rain It washes me away. And Anna begins to change my mind. And everytime she sneezes I believe it's love and, Oh lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing. She's talking in her sleep. It's keeping me awake. And Anna begins to toss and turn. And every word is nonsense but I understand and, Oh lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing. Her kindness bangs a gong, It's moving me along. And Anna begins to fade away. It's chasing me away. She disappears, and Oh lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing.

Va de nuez el cover de Alice in Chains: "Got Me Wrong"

Realmente debo insistir en que cuando estos videos se grabaron yo no pensaba subirlos puesto que fueron capturados cuando la euforia del YouTube no agarraba su auge, así que bueno, detalles hay muchos, ustedes ya los conocen. Sin embargo, el hecho de que a estas alturas el cover "Got Me Wrong" de Alice in Chains tenga ya más de 500 visitas y 9 comentarios (que en términos generales son -diría yo- bastante buenos), me permite volver a postearlo en este mi blog, que al final de cuentas es para eso: Para poner lo que yo quiera sin importar si a los(amables) lectores de este espacio les gusta o no, o más bien dicho, aún a pesar de eso... Pues lo único que importa es que quien lo quiera postear sea yo.
