Queens of the Stone Age - Infinity (Vienna 1998)

Todo termina. Y no lo digo yo: pasa, es así y punto, no se habla más. La defunción prematura, la finalización abrupta de algo que pensábamos duradero o eterno, puede impactarnos, marcarnos para siempre. La prolongación de algo más allá de su expectativa de vida, también. Pero cuando la decisión de acabar con una vida (con un proyecto, con un sentimiento, con una costumbre, con lo que sea) es premeditada, las reacciones posibles son dos. O tratamos de comprender las razones o nos indignamos y nos amargamos para siempre.

Hubo una vez una banda llamada White Stripes, una banda que marcó una época, que estuvo liderada por un hombre prolífico, talentoso y responsable de dar nacimiento a varios de los mejores temas de los 00. Hubo. Un buen día, Jack y Meg White tomaron la decisión definitoria: matar a su primogénito. Después de más de una década, en febrero de este año, los White Stripes dejaron concientemente de tocar. Ante la noticia, muchos optaron por confiar en la capacidad creativa del tipo: sus bandas paralelas (Raconteurs, Dead Wheater), su participación en otros proyectos (Rome, con Daniel Luppi y Danger Mouse, por ejemplo), su tarea como productor (con un nombre basta: Wanda Jackson) y sus acciones mediante Third Man Records fueron consideradas suficientes para mantener vivo ese espíritu blanco. Otros, sin embargo, lloraron desconsoladamente.

Durante el día de ayer se dieron a conocer dos rarezas inéditas de la difunta banda. Dos covers: "Signed D.C" de Love (de su disco debut de 1966) y "I´ve Been Loving You Too Long" de Otis Redding. Y helos aquí. Todo termina, sí, pero la posibilidad de volver al recuerdo (como París, ptff), no se acaba nunca.

STRANGE END (LYRICS & CHORDS)

All summer long we swam under the sun

Bm E
Strange end of the summer time
The sun is shining from a deep blue sky
The dogs are barking from the back of the house
And the weather is the end of the mouse

Bm E (ending with C#)
Strange end of the summer time
Just a shadow of the summer prime
Lets make love two more times
Before the end of the summer …time

C#m B F
All summer long we swam under the sun
In yellow fields we shared our fun
Now the summer´s a ghost and its almost undone 
Ohh Lord, won’t you bring the Winter on

Bm E
Come on baby wont you dance with me
Come on baby, now it´s only you and me
Cause the summer´s almost gone
And the winters coming ooooon

Em C A
All summer long we swam under the sun
In yellow fields we shared our fun
Now the summer´s a ghost and its almost undone 
Ohh Lord, won’t you bring the Winter on

Bm E (ending with C#)
All summer long you sang to me
All summer long you were my queen bee 
We made love under the burning sky
Now your old, and the end is near, and 
its only you and I…

C#m B F
All summer long we swam under the sun
In yellow fields we shared our fun
Now the summer´s a ghost and its almost undone 
Ohh Lord, won’t you bring the Winter on
