Rolling Stones

Como no, si hablo de los Beatles, tengo que hablar de ellos... No quiero entrar en cúal es mejor, cada uno piensa lo que piense... para mi los Rolling son La Banda, su actitud, sus discos y todo, todo, significa para mi rock´n´roll.

Excesos de alcohol, de drogas y de ego han acompañada a esta magnífica banda durante sus mas de 40 años de carrera, que pocos se lo auguraban cuando empezaron a comienzos de los años sesenta. pero ahí siguen, dejándonos discos como este Beggars Banquet, de donde sale esta canción que ha sido emblema de la banda durante décadas.

Y este vídeo... pues fue el principio del fin de la década de los sesenta, de la época en la que si, todos éramos inocentes y probábamos de todo, pero el balance final no era bueno,... el concierto de Altamont fue la mano que quitó la venda a los hippies.

Señoras y señores... Sus Majestades Satánicas:

The Rolling Stones- Sympathy For The Devil

Please allow me to introduce myself
Im a man of wealth and taste
Ive been around for a long, long year
Stole many a mans soul and faith
And I was round when jesus christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But whats puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
I stuck around st. petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank
Held a generals rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, whats puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah
I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
I shouted out,
Who killed the kennedys?
When after all
It was you and me
Let me please introduce myself
Im a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached bombay
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But whats puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But whats confusing you
Is just the nature of my game
Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails
Just call me lucifer
cause Im in need of some restraint
So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or Ill lay your soul to waste, um yeah
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, um yeah
But whats puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, um mean it, get down
Woo, who
Oh yeah, get on down
Oh yeah
Oh yeah!
Tell me baby, whats my name
Tell me honey, can ya guess my name
Tell me baby, whats my name
I tell you one time, youre to blame
