Canciones para una vida - Parasite - Lonely Eagle

 

LONELY  EAGLE

Otro clarisimo ejemplo de bandas potencialmente capaces de algo muy grande pero que se quedaron en apenas una pequeña pincelada de lo que podría haber llegado a ser. Estamos hablando de los suecos "Parasite" que desarrollan su carrera breve entre los años 1981 y 1985 con la publicación de un único material en formato EP titulado con el nombre de la banda "Parasite", un total de cinco canciones, algo menos de veinte minutos que fueron sin embargo tiempo y material suficientes como para que el paso del tiempo haya dejado claro su citado potencial y esa sensación repetida de banda prematuramente perdida en el anonimato. Hoy dejo en el blog otro ejemplo con otro de sus temas, en este caso el que cierra el EP, "Lonely Eagle" lleva por título y de ella dejo hoy en el blog un enlace a youtube.

 In a time when there was nothing left, the lonely eagle was flying back
Like a cloud in the sky, he spreads his wings to return, spread his wings to return...
Fly high and touch the moon, passing stars when going through
Make a sound with your wings again, you got to believe that it's not the end
Like a cloud in the sky, spread your wings and fly high
The lonely eagle is passing by, in the middle of you
Like an eagle, he spreads out his wings, lookout - the lonely eagle is passing by

In the night, a lonely eagle....

He always flies alone, he's a conqueror and hard as stone
With his flesh - flesh and bone, you can hear the magic tone
In the night, he travels away, because he knows what's going to happen
Make a sound with your wings again, you got to believe that it's not the end

Like an eagle, he spreads out his wings, lookout - the lonely eagle is passing by
In the night, the lonely eagle...

Fly high and touch the moon, passing stars when going through
Make a sound with your wings again, you got to believe that it's not the end
Like a cloud in the sky, spread your wings and fly high
The lonely eagle is passing by, in the middle of you

Like an eagle, he spreads out his wings, lookout - the lonely eagle is passing by
In the night, the lonely eagle...
