Lucinda Williams: "Essence"

"Essence"

(2.001)

Lucinda Williams, la gran señora del rock americano actual,

objeto de culto desde sus inicios,

no se prodiga demasiado (perfeccionista a ultranza),

pero cuando lo hace sorprende con joyas como este "Essence",

para mi una obra maestra, aunque puede que no llegue a ser su mejor disco.

El tema que da título al album es la pasión desbordada,

al igual que otros temas ("Lonely Girl", "Blue") son la nostalgia,

en definitiva, hay que escuchar el disco entero.

(Para comprobar que sigue en plena forma, dejo un enlace

 a un excelente video de su último disco "Blessed"

"Copenhagen")

Baby, sweet baby, you´re my drug
Come on and let me taste your stuff

Baby, sweet baby, bring me your gift
What surprise you gonna hit me with

I am waiting here for more
I am waiting by your door
I am waiting on your back steps
I am waiting in my car
I am waiting at this bar
I am waiting for your essence

Baby, sweet baby, whisper my name
Shoot your love into my vein
Baby, sweet baby, kiss me hard
Make me wonder who's in charge

I am waiting here for more
I am waiting by your door
I am waiting on your back steps
I am waiting in my car
I am waiting at this bar
I am waiting for your essence

Baby, sweet baby, I wanna feel your breath
Even though you like to flirt with death
Baby, sweet baby, can't get enough
Please come find me and help me get fucked up

I am waiting here for more
I am waiting by your door
I am waiting on your back steps
I am waiting in my car
I am waiting at this bar
I am waiting for your essence
Your essence
Your essence
