Parece que esteve cá o nosso canadiano preferido, o Bryan Adams, e que encheu o Pavilhão Atlântico. Outra vez. Ainda bem para ele. E para quem foi. Pessoalmente, há já muitos, MUITOS anos que lamento a xaropada bexigosa em que o jovem se tornou, com baladinhas melosas atrás de baladinhas azeiteiras. Confesso que, apesar de tudo, ouvir Bryan Adams de antigamente sempre foi um "guilty pleasure". Todavia o Mr. Chiclete dos idos anos de oitentas e tais era muito mais interessante que o actual e algo xéxé "Tony Carreira canadiano". Nem é preciso mencionar as do costume que, apesar de passarem na rádio até à exaustão, ainda se ouvem com agrado.
Porém, tenho pena que a minha música preferida de sempre do tipo nunca ou raramente se tenha ouvido. Ouvi-a o outro dia por acaso na rádio (105.4 Cascais) e que bem que soube. Do álbum "Into The Fire" de 1987, o que se seguiu ao êxito do "Reckless".
For our king and our country and the promise of glory
We came from Kingston and Brighton to fight on the front line
Just lads from the farms and boys from the cities
Not meant to be soldiers we lay in the trenches
We'd face the fighting with a smile - or so we said
If only we had known what danger lay ahead
The sky turned to grey as we went into battle
On the fields of Europe young men were fallin'
I'll be back for you someday - it won't be long
If I can just hold on 'til this bloody war is over
The guns will be silent on Remembrance Day
There'll be no more fighting on Remembrance Day
By October of 18 Cambrai had fallen
Soon the war would be over and we'd be returnin'
Don't forget me while I'm gone far away
Well it won't be long 'till I'm back there in your arms again
One day soon - I don't know when
You know we'll all be free and the bells of peace will ring again
The time will come for you and me
We'll be goin' home when this bloody war is ended
The guns will be silent on Remembrance Day
We'll all say a prayer on Remembrance Day
On Remembrance Day - say a little prayer
On Remembrance Day
Well the guns will be silent
oh There'll be no more fighting
we'll lay down our weapons
On Remembrance Day
