Fado Falado

Foi anunciado há pouco tempo.
Mark Eitzel vem a Portugal na próxima semana para dois concertos. Na terça, no Santiago Alquimista em Lisboa. E na quarta na Casa das Artes em Famalicão.

O líder dos American Music Club traz sobretudo Love Songs for Patriots. A abrir está uma canção chamada Ladies and Gentlemen. Tentem ouvir. As palavras são um desafio ao sorriso em tempos difíceis. E os últimos versos...


ladies and gentlemen it's time
for all the good that's in you to shine
for all the lights to lose their shade
for all the hate that's in you to fade

ladies and gentlemen it's time
for the maracas and the tambourines
to play them until they break or until day break
don't hide anymore its time to be seen

ladies and gentlemen it's time
for you to flash like a dancer who aims to please
time to unbutton every button of your embarrassment
time to be warm in the dark don't let the dancer freeze

ladies and gentlemen it's time
the bartender is looking you right in the eye
says I’m going to replace all that weak blood with my wine
if you can’t live with the truth go ahead try and live
with a lie
