CHRISTMAS CAROLS

No me gustan especialmente los villancicos españoles, esa es la verdad; no es esnobismo sino quizá por todas las veces que los escuché de pequeño, cuando sólo había un canal de TV, siempre los mismos, todas las Navidades. Luego conocí los villancicos en inglés, carols, o los coros barrocos, y me enamoré de ellos. Ahora, cada Navidad, rescato en mi iPhone los Xmas Carols y los pongo en casa, en el trabajo, en el estudio. Son unas fechas propicias para que coloque alguno de los mejores en el blog y así puedo compartirlos, que de eso se trata, de alimentar el alma con música.

Michael Bublé, *Grown Up Christmas List

Grown Up Christmas List from monica on Vimeo.

Do you remember me?

I sat upon your knee

I wrote to you with childhood fantasies

Well, I'm all grown-up now

Can you still help somehow?

I'm not a child, but my start still can dream

So here's my lifelong wish

My grown-up Christmas list

Not for myself, but for a world in need

No more lives torn apart

That wars would never start

And time would heal all hearts

Every man would have a friend

That right would always win

And love would never end

This is my grown-up Christmas list

What is this illusion called the innocence of youth?

Maybe only in that blind belief can we ever find the truth

No more lives torn apart

That wars would never start

And time would heal our hearts

Every man would have a friend

That right would always win

And love would never end

This is my grown-up Christmas list

This is my only lifelong wish

This is my grown-up Christmas list
