Good ‘ol Wombats. Lo siento, no puedo evitar volver a ellos una y otra vez, realmente me encantaron. Tienen un estilo culísimo, me dan ganas de cantar y bailar y weas. De hecho cuando me distraigo sin darme cuenta estoy cantando en voz alta y la gente me mira raro.

Figuraba sho en un bus camino a Santiago a una reunión con la gente que hizo el sitio de Sopraval y de la nada (en verdad de mi reproductor de música, pero bueh..) empezó esta canción. La amé. Cuando escuché bien la letra me di cuenta de lo genial de la canción. La ironía, la capacidad de ser feliz aunque esté la mansa ni que cagá en tu vida… simplemente genial. Nuevamente me saco el pillo con la excusa de una letra muy muy buena. Escuchen la canción, lean la letra, pongan Joy Division y bailen.

Let’s Dance To Joy Division – The Wombats

Letra

I’m back in Liverpool,
And everything seems the same,
But I worked something out last night,
That changed this little boys brain,
A small piece of advice,
That took twenty-two years in the make,
And I will break it for you now,
Please learn from my mistakes,
Please learn from my mistakes.

Let’s dance to joy division,
And celebrate the irony,
Everything is going wrong,
But we’re so happy,
Let’s dance to joy division,
And raise our glass to the ceiling,
‘Cos this could all go so wrong,
But we’re so happy,
Yeah we’re so happy.

So if you’re ever feeling down,
Grab your purse and take a taxi,
To the darker side of town,
That’s where we’ll be,
And we will wait for you and lead you through the dancefloor,
Up to the DJ booth,
You know what to ask for,
You know what to ask for.

Go ask for Joy Division,
And celebrate the irony,
Everything is going wrong,
But we’re so happy,
Go ask for Joy Division,
And raise your glass to the ceiling,
‘Cos this could all go so wrong,
But we’re so happy,
So happy.

So let the love tear us apart,
I’ve found the cure for a broken heart,
Let it tear us apart,
let the love tear us apart,
I’ve found the cure for a broken heart,
Let it tear us apart,
(Let it tear us apart)
So let the love tear us apart,
I’ve found the cure for a broken heart,
Let it tear us apart,
(Let it tear us apart)
So let the love tear us apart,
I’ve found the cure for a broken heart,
Let it tear us apart,
Let it tear us apart,
Let it tear us apart.

Let’s dance to joy division,
And celebrate the irony,
Everything is going wrong,
But were so happy,
Let’s dance to joy division,
And raise our glass to the ceiling,
‘Cos this could all go so wrong,
But we’re so happy,
Yeah we’re so happy,
So happy,
Yeah we’re so happy,
So happy,
Yeah we’re so happy.
