Bang, bang, bang…ørehænger

11. april 2007

På capacs mp3-afspiller ligger nummeret You’re the Storm med The Cardigans og – ikke mindst – Nina Persson i den vokale frontlinje. Sangen, teksten og Ninas stemme har det med at blive hængende i bevidstheden længe efter en gennemlytning…

You’re The Storm”

oh it’s healing – bang bang bang
i can hear your cannons call
you’ve been aiming at my land
your hungry hammer is falling

and if you want me I’m your country

I’m an angel bored like hell
and you’re a devil meaning well
you steal my lines and you strike me dumb
come raise your flag upon me

and if you want me I’m your country
if you win me I’m forever – oh yeah!

’cause you’re the storm that I’ve been needing
and all this peace has been deceiving
I like the sweet life and the silence
but it’s the storm that I believe in

come and conquer and drop your bombs
cross my borders and kill the calm
bear your fangs and burn my wings
I hear bullets singing

and if you want me I’m your country
if you win me I’m forever – oh yeah!

’cause you’re the storm that I’ve been needing
and all this peace has been deceiving
I need some wind to get me sailing
so it’s the storm that I believe in

you fill my heart, you keep me breathing
’cause you’re the storm that I believe in

and if you want me I’m your country

– i øvrigt faldt jeg over Nina Perssons version af en anden capac-favoritsang, nemlig Led Zeppelins uovertrufne Whole Lotta Love fra 1969:

Er det i øvrigt ikke Robert Plant, man ser trække på smilebåndet oppe blandt publikum? Det behøver han nu ikke, for Ninas version er ikke værst…
