H Wendy με το ακορντεόν της

Τα τραγούδια της Wendy McNeil ειναι δυσεύρετα.

Το Restless αναφέρεται στην εμμονή του πόνου αλλά και της  πίκρας όχι μόνο σε ατομικό επίπεδο αλλά και σε κοινωνικό ως έκφραση παραπόνου για έναν κόσμο που εμμένει στα συνηθισμένα και στερείται συναισθημάτων και ως εκ τούτου συμπόνιας.

Μακάρι να μπορούσα να μεταφράσω τους στίχους στα ελληνικά γιατί λίγα κομμάτια πλέον εχουν στίχους που να βγάζουν νόημα αν τα μεταφράσουμε.

Nothing like a belly full of stitches to let you know you're alive
Nothing like the leash of limitation to make you want to try
Nothing like a dodgy fortune teller to Rush the next good bye
Nothing like a naive girl whose wide sad eyes say why
Why why why

Some of this was in april
Most of it was in the spring
But some of it will be the autumn too
What a chill that recognition brings
Yes some of this was in april
Most of it was in the spring
But some of it will be the autumn too
What a chill that recognition brings

Hug me touch me hold me down
Until i can't resist
Because i have been so restless restless
And i am tired of it

Just like these crazy nations history repeating
Hot tempered and inflated self defeating
Hand over foot digging for something to believe in
A bite to the back of my neck bliss is fleeting

I look at children and i wonder
I smell the flowers and i smile
If today will be tomorrow
Then i have done alright so far
Nothing like a careless thought
To put a sparkle in the eye
That sparkle is the thing i fall for every time
Because i am such a magpie
I I I

Hug me touch me hold me down
Until i can't resist
Because i have been so restless restless
And i am tired of it
I'm so tired of it
