Eén van de mooiste country song van alle tijden is toch echt wel 'Drover' van Bill Callahan. Wie zeg je?? Bill Callahan. De meest onderschatte singer-songwriter van Amerika. Nog nooit van gehoord? Nu dus wel.
Country songs, quarter horses, het Wilde Westen, de oneindige landschappen en de typische cowboy en cowgirls-kleding en events... Wie houdt er niet van? De songs van Bill Callahan nemen je mee naar die andere wereld. Het is bovendien heerlijke muziek die lang in je hoofd blijft. Echte oorwurmen, zeg maar. Luister, lees en geniet:
Drover - Bill Callahan
The real people went away But I'll find a better way, someday Leaving only me and my dreams My cattle And a resonator I drove all the beasts down right under your nose The lumbering footloose power The bull and the rose Don't touch them Don't try to hurt them My cattle I drove them by the crops and thought the crops were lost I consoled myself with rudimentary thoughts And I set my watch against the city clock It was way off Yeah, one thing about this wild, wild country It takes a strong, strong It breaks a strong, strong mind Yeah, one thing about this wild, wild country It takes a strong, strong It breaks a strong, strong mind And anything less, anything less Makes me feel like I'm wasting my time But the pain and frustration is not mine It belongs to the cattle Through the valley And when my cattle turns on me I was knocked back flat I was knocked out cold for one clack of the train track Then I rose a colossal hand buried, buried in sand I rose like a drover For I am, in the end a drover A drover by trade And when my cattle turns on me I am a drover double fold My cattle bears it all away for me and everyone Yeah, one thing about this wild, wild country It takes a strong, strong It breaks a strong, strong mind And anything less, anything less Makes me feel like I'm wasting my time Opmerkingen zijn gesloten.
