Rick Wright

Apparemment, ce n'est pas trop le genre de musique dont on parle dans cette partie du forum. Mais Rick Wright (clavier de Pink Floyd) est mort lundi dernier. Et moi ça me rend triste !

Pour ceux que ça intéresse, allez faire un tour sur cette page :

mais il y en a sûrement d'autres.

Extrait de l'album "Dark Side of the Moon" (1973, ça ne nous rajeunit pas !) les paroles de "Time", écrites par Roger Waters et qui évoquent bien le temps qui passe... et ce qui s'ensuit.

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

And you run and you runto catch up with the sun, but it's sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in the relative way, but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page pf scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone the song is over, thought I'd something more to say
