Believe [k's Choice]

Hola,

Me he estado fijando en que todas las canciones que he colgado por aquí han sido siempre cantadas por hombres. Y ya está bien, ¿no?

No me malinterpretéis, no soy de las que hacen diferencias en el sexo de los cantantes. No suelo fijarme en eso, sino en si la canción me gusta o no. De hecho, ahora que lo pienso, la gran mayoría de los grupos que me gustan tienen un cantante varón...

El caso es que k's Choice es uno de los pocos grupos de rock de mi CDteca, cuya cantante es una mujer. El grupo, formado por dos hermanos belgas, Gert y Sarah Bettens, es uno de los grupos (según se dice) más influyentes de Bélgica.

Me encanta la voz de Sarah. Es una voz más bien grave, que sugiere carácter y mucha fuerza. Y me gusta mucho su disco Cocoon crash, en especial la canción que inicia el disco: Believe. Hermosa en la voz de Sarah, en la melodía, y sobre todo, hermosa en su letra.

Bravely I look further than I see
Knowing things I know I cannot be —not now
I'm so aware of where I am, but I don't know where that is
And there's something right in front of me and I

Touch the fingers of my hand
And I wonder if it's me
Holding on and on to theories of prosperity
Someone who can promise me
I believe in me

Tomorrow I was nothing, yesterday I'll be
Time has fooled me into thinking it's a part of me
Nothing in this room but empty space
No me, no world, no mind, no face

Touch the fingers of my hand
And tell me if it's me
Holding on and on to love —what else is real?
A religion that appeals to me, oh
I believe in me

Can you turn me off for just a second, please
Turn me into something faceless, weightless, mindless, homeless
Vacuum state of peace

On and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
I believe in me
On and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
I believe in me

Wait for me, I'm nothing on my own
I'm willing to go on, but not alone, not now
I'm so aware of everything, but nothing seems for real and
As long as you're in front of me then I'll

Watch the fingers of my hands
And I'm grateful that it's me
Holding on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
I believe in me

I'm willing to go on but not alone, not now
I'm willing to go on but not alone, not now
I'm so aware of everything
I'm so aware of where I am...
