Sat 6 Feb – Stereophonics, De Staat

Al een hele poos prijken de mannen van de Stereophonics bovenaan mijn lijst van mijn meest beluisterde artiesten. Klopt ook wel. Op de één of andere manier werkt de muziek van Stereophonics voor mij aardig verslavend. Ik blijf er naar terugkeren. Zelfs als ik bij een album denk "nu beginnen ze wel een eentonig geluid te krijgen", zelfs dan luister ik het album erna gewoon weer. En wederom staan daar dan weer een aantal erg toffe nummers op. Tel daar bij op dat de heren zelf ook aardige "lads" zijn, met een stipje voor bij frontman Kelly Jones welke normaliter de coolheid zelve is. (leren jasje, modieuze zonnebril, cool kapsel, grappige verhalen) Je begrijpt dus dat ik wel een zwakke plek heb voor deze band.

Voordat het concert begon zijn we lekker een hapje gaan eten in een restaurant in een rond gebouw recht tegenover de HMH. Aanrader! We hebben daar zeer goed gegeten!

O título desse post é uma frase da autoria de Noel Gallagher. Motivo? Não sei. Mas faz sentido. Não que o Noel seja um grande letrista. Sua intimidade com as palavras não estão nem nos pés de sua harmonia melódica.

Imagino como seria uma música sua escrita em parceria com Kelly Jones, esse sim um letrista de primeira. Duvida? Ouça Just Looking do Phonics.

Mas voltando ao título do post; Noel realmente não é um grande letrista se analisarmos suas músicas como um todo. No entanto, podemos encontrar na maioria dos hits do Oasis algumas frases que batem com situações da vida e do cotidiano.

Independente disso, não adianta tentar fugir. Sempre que o Oasis lança um novo disco a situação é a mesma: o cara compra, abre, ouve e pensa: puta que pariu, o cara é foda mesmo.

Dig Out Your Soul não é diferente. E olha que pra mim a melhor música do disco é I'm Outta Time, de autoria do Liam. Mas ainda falta muita cancha pro Gallagher caçula...
