Arcade Fire - Laika

The Arcade Fire, tal vez mi grupo favortio del siglo XXI. Hay guitarras, violines, pero sobretodo un acordeon que marca la diferencia. La voz de ella no es la mejor pero es Arcade Fire, él en cambio tiene una fuerza cantando que atrae desde el primer momento. El directo, simplemente hay que verlos, a pocos grupos les queda tan bien el darse golpes con la baquetas en la cabeza e ir de locos. La canción va dedicada igual que el disco a su difunto amigo alex. Un directo de los que no habría que perderse.

Esta canción pertenece al disco funeral





Alexander, our older brother,
set out for a great adventure.
He tore our images out of his pictures,
he scratched our names out of all his letters.

Our mother shoulda just named you Laika!

Come on Alex, you can do it.
Come on Alex, there's nothin' to it.
If you want somethin' don't ask for nothin,
if you want nothin' don't ask for somethin'!

Our mother shoulda just named you Laika!
It's for your own good,
it's for the neighborhood!
For the neighborhood

Our older brother bit by a Vampire!
For a year we caught his tears in a cup.
And now we're gonna make him drink it.
Come on Alex don't die or dry up!

Our mother shoulda just named you Laika!
It's for your own good,
it's for the neighborhood!

When daddy comes home you always start a fight,
so the neighbors can dance in the police disco lights.
The police disco lights.
Now the neighbors can dance! (x4)
