"Escuchad, escuchad benditos"

El nuevo disco de Alanis Morissette "Flavors of Entanglement". Lo he escuchado completo en el Pais.com. Me han encantado las 11 canciones, algo muy difícil y que me pasa con pocos discos. Me gustan muchas canciones y de muchos y diversos artistas, estilos, de todo... pero un disco entero... pocos. Por casualidad, la primera canción que escogí para escuchar fue la última canción: "Incomplete" (espero que sea uno de los singles): preciosa, con una letra con tanta verdad...! Y sino, un ojo al estribillo:


One day I'll find relief
I'll be arrived and
I'll be a friend to my friends who know how to be friends
One day I'll be at peace
I’ll be enlightened and
I'll be married with children and maybe adopt
One day I will be healed
I will gather my wounds forge the end of tragic comedy

I have been running so sweaty my whole life
Urgent for a finish line
And I have been missing the rapture this whole time
Of being forever incomplete

One day, my mind will retreat, and
I'll know god and
I'll be constantly one with her night dusk and day
One day I'll be secure,
like the women I see on their 30th anniversaries

I have been running so sweaty my whole life
Urgent for a finish line
And I have been missing the rapture this whole time
Of being forever incomplete

Ever unfolding
Ever expanding
Ever adventurous and torturous
But never done

One day, I will speak freely
I'll be less afraid
And measured outside of my poems and lyrics and art
One day I will be faith-filled
I'll be trusting and spacious authentic and grounded and whole

I have been running so sweaty my whole life
Urgent for a finish line
And I have been missing the rapture this whole time
Of being forever incomplete


Por ahora el single que ha sacado es Underneath. Una pasada.
