Hace a penas 10 días que Sir Paul McCartney cumplía 74 años y con eso ya tenemos excusa suficiente para poner uno de sus temas.
Esta semana es el protagonista de esta sección casi mensual (jiji) con este "Biker Like An Icon" perteneciente a su álbum de 1993 "Off The Ground".
Parece ser que todo comenzó con una conversación con su esposa Linda sobre cámaras en la cual ella le decía que le gustaba una Leica ("I like a Leica"). Paul le hizo contestó con un "I like a Nikon" y supongo que en su mente oyó una melodía que acabaría transformando en este pegajoso estribillo.
Fue el cuarto y último single extraído del disco y no tuvo, la verdad, demasiado éxito.
Esta semana Sir Paul McCartney es el elegido.
Feliz escucha, feliz semana.
There was a girl who loved a biker
She used to follow him across America
But the biker didn't like her
She didn't care, she still persisted
Though her brother said she was twisted
And the family said they wouldn't miss her anyway
She loved the biker like an icon
Gazing at his picture everyday
She loved the biker like an icon
Slowly watching precious water drip away
She did her best to fix a meeting
She pulled it off one night in Hollywood
When he met her, he couldn't let her get away
He didn't ask for her permission
He took advantage of her position
But he was always her ambition anyway
She loved the biker like an icon
Gazing at his picture everyday
She loved the biker like an icon
Slowly watching precious water drip away, oh
She loved the biker like an icon
Slowly watching precious water drip away
The family tried so hard to find her
They showed her picture across America
But no trace of her sweet face was ever found
She loved the biker like an icon
Gazing at his picture everyday
She loved the biker like an icon
Slowly watching precious water drip away, hey, hey
She loved the biker like an icon
Slowly watching precious water drip away, yeah, yeah
She loved the biker like an icon
Slowly watching precious water drip away, ha, ha, ha, ha
She loved the biker like an icon

¡Muchas gracias por el descubrimiento! Ahora que me está empezar a gustar demasiado la fotografía, me ha encantado la historia. Y aún me queda mucho por descubrir de Paul en solitario...
Música, gatos y ahora fotografía... Sólo te falta que te guste mucho el sexo y ya casi casi seremos iguales. ;)
