Uno de los discos que más espero en las próximas semanas, es ‘Visions of a Life’, segundo larga duración de Wolf Alice, quienes desde su irrupción a la escena, se han logrado colar de alguna u otra manera a las series y películas más importantes de cada año. Desde Leftovers, pasando por Ghostbusters, Arrow y hasta Trainspotting 2.
De hecho, no debería extrañarnos que ‘Beautifully Unconventional’ sea una canción inspirada en ‘Heathers’, aquella película protagonizada por Winona Ryde y Christian Slater a finales de los 90 y es precisamente la razón por la que la figura principal de esta canción, se llama Heather.
Letra:
I watch you and your friends
You stick out so sorely girl
You grow up a poorly girl
Girls who don’t go out and play
And you at your wit’s end
With your meaningless conversations
Well I tell you they test my patience
And maybe we could be friends
As light as a feather while
Grade A smart color while
She’s now Heather while
So I see you laugh together while
Heather! She lives! She breathes!
She’s beautifully unconventional
She seems to be
From the best place in the world
Must be the best place in the world
Head way up in a storm cloud
Calm but so extreme
Did you ever analyse your dreams?
You know, nothing is what it seems
You’re a walking contradiction
Cute with such conviction
But dark is a devil who walks
And as loyal as a stalker who stalks
Changing like the weather while
As tough as leather while
Floating in the ether while
Friends forever but
Heather! She lives! She breathes!
She’s beautifully unconventional
She seems to be
From the best place in the world
Must be the best place in the world
She’s beautifully (unconventional)
I long to see (her arms above my soul)
I long to be (with her forevermore)
She’s beautifully
As light as a feather
Grade A so clever
Floating in the ether
Friends forever
Beautifully Unconventional forma parte del esperado segundo disco de Wolf Alice que estará disponible a partir del 29 de Septiembre.
