Seal se había dado a conocer en 1990 al cantar en el hit de Adamski "Killer". Aquello le sirvió para asegurarse un contrato como solista y al año siguiente editaba su primer álbum. Si, se hizo famoso pero se podría decir que a parte del "Kiss from a rose" nunca tuvo un super pelotazo que lo elevara a categoría de super estrella. Aún así tiene un buen puñado de buenas canciones muy bien cantadas y excelentemente producidas (sobre todo cuando lo hace el gran Trevor Horn).En 1994 editaba su segundo disco y lo presentaba con un tema titulado "Prayer for the dying" que me dejó prendado desde la primera escucha. Es un tema sentido, cantado de manera maravillosa y con unos toques de elegancia tremendos. Por cierto, la versión del disco con sus 5 minutos y medio es muy superior al edit que se hizo para radio o para el video clip.
Feliz escucha, feliz semana.
Da da, da da
Ah, ho-oo-oh-oo
Fearless people,
Careless needle.
Harsh words spoken,
And lives are broken.
Forceful ageing,
Help me I'm fading.
Heaven's waiting,
It's time to move on.
Crossing that bridge,
With lessons I've learned.
Playing with fire,
And not getting burned.
I may not know what you're going through.
But time is the space,
Between me and you.
Life carries on... it goes on.
Just say die,
And that would be pessimistic.
In your mind,
We can walk across the water.
Please don't cry,
It's just a prayer for the dying.
I just don't know what's got into me.
Been crossin' that bridge,
With lessons I've learned.
...learned...............
Playing with fire,
And not getting burned.
...burned burned...
I may not know what you're going through,
But time is the space,
Between me and you
There is a light through that window
...light through that window...
Hold on say yes, while people say no
Life carries on
...on on on...
Ohh!
It goes on....oh-ee-oh, whoa-ee-oh ho oh...
I'm crossing that bridge,
With lessons I've learned....
I'm playing with fire,
And not getting burned....
I may not know what you're going through.
But time is the space,
Between me and you
There is a light through that window
Hold on say yes, while people say no
'Cause life carries on....oh-ee-oh, whoa-ee-oh ho on...
It goes on....oh-ee-on,
It goes on.
Whoah.
Whoah.
Life carries on.
When nothing else matters.
When nothing else matters.
I just don't know what's got into me.
It's just a prayer for the dying.
...dying dying dying dying...
For the dying
Ah, ho-oo-oh-oo
