Fun Lovin´ Criminals. Crazy Train

Me comenta un amigo que hoy en La Voz sale Jamie Cullum. Y lo hace ni más ni menos que en la gran final. En su día escribí algo sobre ese programa que reconozco no he vuelto a ver. Ahora está en la tele y lo único que me viene a la mente es esa enigmática frase que suelta un personaje en Terciopelo Azul: Es un mundo extraño. Hasta ahora no conocía al tal Mika ese y la horrenda canción que ha interpretado. Y mi existencia era mucho mejor sin conocerle. Así que para compensar recurro al salvoconducto y quitapenas habitual: la voz de Huey Morgan reinando por todo lo alto en esa cover que se cascan del Crazy Train de Ozzy Osbourne. La letra es además muy apropiada. Yeah!!!!!





Crazy, but that's how it goes, millions of people, living ashoes,
But maybe, it's not too late,
to learn how to love and forget how to hate,

But mental wounds, they still heal, but drivin' me, insane,
I'm going off the rails of my crazy train,

I've listened to preachers, I've even listened to fools, y'all.
I've watched all the dropouts, who make their own rules,
See that person's condition, to whom they control,
You know the media sells it y'all, and you live the woe,

But mental wounds, they still heal, but drivin' me, insane,
I'm going off the rails of my crazy train,

I know that things ain't going well for my ass,
But you got to listen to my words,

As of a cold war, that's what we've become,
Inheriting troubles, yo i'm mentally numb,
Crazy, I just cannot bear,
I'm livin' with something, that just isn't fair,

With mental wounds, not healin', drivin' me, insane,
See I'm going off the rails of that crazy train,

Crazy.
