Hefner

No deja de sorprenderme esta gente. Sí, he llegado tarde a ellos y estoy poniéndome ahora al día.
Incluso en su peor disco se pueden encontrar joyitas, como ésta.




Lo que de verdad me cautiva de este tema, es su letra:

You had peppermint gum stuck behind your teeth,
You had white shoes and bare knees in 1983.
I had your breast in my hand underneath the tree,
But as the tree lost its leaves you went up and left me for an awkward kind of boy,
Who was far too tall and true to from it didn't last long but the peppermint taste doesn't pass away for weeks,
My school friends hearts they were bitter they were cruel,
So I left when I was fifteen, didn't think of them at all.
Were you thinking that way too when you turned your back on school?
Did you work in a bank? did you marry with a banker?
Do you think of fate at all? Do you think of cruelty?
Do you think of me pushing you up against that tree?
And that peppermint taste didn't pass away for weeks.
Well I may have touched your breast, but I never underneath
But we kissed to hard and we knocked each others teeth.
Did you smile with relief when I gave up the ghost and didn't ring your house no more.
Now its been twenty years, I bet you kiss real good.
I bet you kiss your banker like a bankers wife should,
And that peppermint taste doesn't pass away for weeks.

Hola!
Pues tienen 4 discos oficiales, muchos Eps, un recopilatorio y un cd de temas inéditos y caras b. Sin duda te recomiendo The Fifelity Wars y We Love the City, aunque yo sigo indagando continuamente en ellos...
Lo interesante de esta banda, o uno de sus principales atractivos, son las letras de sus canciones.
Un saludo!
