Canción de la semana 09/08/2010: Electric Light Orchestra- Twilight

No es la canción más representativa de su estilo (ya que pertenece a su etapa final ochentera) pero este Twilight es tan ciencia-ficción-ochentero que parece sacado de series como Macross (Robotech) o Ulises 31. Completamente evocadora resulta comprensible que la escogieran para el opening del conocido dorama Densha Otoko (una conocida serie japonesa de sobre un otaku y una chica pija) y a raiz de eso se ha convertido en todo un icono de la cultura otaku.

Icono o no lo cierto es que desde el momento que ves el maravilloso opening de Densha Otoko no hace más que evocar batallas de robots gigantes en el cielo.

Y este es el opening de Densha Otoko

The visions dancing in my mind The early dawn, the shades of time Twilight crawling through my windowpane Am I awake or do I dream? The strangest pictures I have seen Night is day and twilights gone away With your head held high and your scarlet lies You came down to me from the open skies Its either real or its a dream Theres nothing that is in between... Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile Twilight, I gave you time to steal my mind Away from me. Across the night I saw your face You disappeared without a trace You brought me here, but can you take me back?

Inside the image of your light That now is day and once was night You lead me here and then you go away. Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile Twilight, I gave you time to steal my mind Away from me. (you brought me here, but can you take me back again? ) With your head held high and your scarlet lies You came down to me from the open skies Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile Twilight, I gave you time to steal my mind Away from me. Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile Twilight, twilight, twilight, twilight.
