I Wish I Was A Punk Rocker In My Hair


Pas forcémment fan des crédeaux "comme c'était mieux avant", je reste comme même bien impressionné par cette petite chanson... bien sympathique.

Enfin ! Pas de surenchère electro, rythmique ou orchestrale mais retour à l'instrument principal : la voie. La preuve qu'il est encore possible de faire un carton avec un authentique talent (même si je suis certain qu'il a a fallu allonger sur les frais marketing, mais bon...). Bref, elle envoie la petite. Son nom ? Sandi Thom. Si vous souhaitez passer un ptit moment bien frais...

Les paroles :

Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
In 77 and 69 revolution was in the air
I was born to lead and to a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
When the head of state didn't play guitar,
Not everybody drove a car,
When music really mattered and when radio was king,
When accountants didn't have control
And the media couldn't buy your soul
And computers were still scary and we didn’t know everything
When popstars still remained a myth
And ignorance could still be bliss
And when God Saved the Queen she turned a whiter shade of pale
When my mom and dad were in their teens
And anarchy was still a dream
And the only way to stay in touch was a letter in the mail
When record shops were still on top
And vinyl was all that they stocked
And the super info highway was still drifting out in space
Kids were wearing hand me downs,
And playing games meant kick arounds
And footballers still had long hair and dirt across their face
I was born to lead to a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
