Comenzamos un nuevo año, la Tierra comienza una vez más su traslación en torno al Sol en esta revolución que será un tantico más larga, un día más tan sólo, veinticuatro horas de propina que nos regala la cosmología para disfrutrar de la existencia.
Mientras preparo nuevos índices y una pequeña recopilación de lo expuesto en PIENSO, LUEGO INSISTO, os cuelgo una curiosa canción de Peggy Lee (mayo 1920-enero 2002), cantante, compositora y actriz norteamericana titulada Some cats know, cantada por Jeany Bryson (mayo 1958). La versión original no la he encontrado, todavía, pero todo llegará, eso espero, aunque hay por ahí un album titulado Peggy Lee canta Leiber & Stoller. Mientras tanto, pues bueno, aquí os dejo con Jeany Bryson youtubeada:
Si me he decidido por esta canción
es, he de confesarlo, porque Peggy Lee no sólo es aplaudida por
cantantes de la talla de Ella Fitzgerald, o Louis Amstrong, sino que ha
sido mentora de Madonna, Elvis Costelo, Paul McCartney, etc; y, sobre
todo, porque compuso canciones para la película de Walt Disney La Dama y el Vagabundo.
Así que os pongo a nuestra querida Peggi latina en La Dama y el Vagabundo, de propina.
Y buen provecho.
P.d.: Para los que quieran, aquí la letra de Some Cats Know
Some Cats Kno
The old prospectors nose for gold
the sailor who can read the sky
the gamblers sense of when to fold
the trick to making apple pie
these mysteries one cannot explain
this old black art
so queer and quaint
like making love, or making rain
either you got it,
or
you
aint
Some cats know
you can tell by the touchin
they don't come on huffin and puffin
and grabbin and clutchin
some cats know
how to take it nice and slow
but if a cat don't know
a cat don't know
some cats know
how to stir up the feelin
they keep foolin round
till they're half way to the celin
some cats know
how to make the honey flow
but if a cat don't know
a cat don't know
some cats know just where it's at
they are not like some others
I would ruther one like that
If I had my druthers
Some cats know
how to play nice and pretty
nice and soft
and soon you're off to
good time city
some cats know
how to take it nice and slow
but if a cat don't know
a cat don't know
he just
don't know
the sailor who can read the sky
the gamblers sense of when to fold
the trick to making apple pie
these mysteries one cannot explain
this old black art
so queer and quaint
like making love, or making rain
either you got it,
or
you
aint
Some cats know
you can tell by the touchin
they don't come on huffin and puffin
and grabbin and clutchin
some cats know
how to take it nice and slow
but if a cat don't know
a cat don't know
some cats know
how to stir up the feelin
they keep foolin round
till they're half way to the celin
some cats know
how to make the honey flow
but if a cat don't know
a cat don't know
some cats know just where it's at
they are not like some others
I would ruther one like that
If I had my druthers
Some cats know
how to play nice and pretty
nice and soft
and soon you're off to
good time city
some cats know
how to take it nice and slow
but if a cat don't know
a cat don't know
he just
don't know
