Ahora escucho... Eels !

Blinking Lights And Other Revelations. El nuevo álbum del supergrupo Eels suena jodidamente raro. Y más que nada, jodidamente deprimido.
Durante la producción de este disco Mark E. Everett, lider de la banda tuvo momentos díficiles, su padre murió y su hermana se suicidó. Marcando en esta nueva entrega un arco raro y pesimista... canciones que en el mejor de los casos poseen ritmos pegajosos con letras cargadas de amargura y mucha mala leche.... El resto de las rolas son muy lentas, muy tristes, muy cansadas...

No creo que sea malo, pero es más un exorcismo que un álbum.

Total que su primer sencillo no tiene que ver con el resto de las rolas del disco, pero es muy bueno... parace el jingle de un comercial de detergentes, con una letra de humor negro.... pegajosa a más no poder. Divertida y medio freak... como la buena música de Eels suele ser.

"Hey Man (Now You'Re Really Living)"

Do you know what it's like to fall on the floor?

And cry your guts out 'til you got no more?

Hey man! Now you're really living

Have you ever made love to a beautiful girl?

Made you feel like it's not such a bad world?

Hey man! Now you're really living

Now you're really giving everything

And you're really getting all you gave

Now you're really living what

This life is all about

Well i just saw the sun rise over the hill

Never used to give me much of a thrill

But hey man! Now you're really living

Do you know what it's like to care too much

'bout someone that you're never gonna get to touch?

Hey man! Now you're really living

Have you ever sat down in the fresh cut grass?

And thought about the moment and when it will pass?

Hey man! Now you're really living

Now you're really giving everything

And you're really getting all you gave

Now you're really living what

This life is all about

Now what would you say if i told you that

Everyone thinks you're a crazy old cat?

Hey man! Now you're really living

Do you know what it's like to fall on the floor

And cry your guts out 'til you got no more?

Hey man! Now you're really living

Have you ever made love to a beautiful girl?

Made you feel like it's not such a bad world?

Hey man! Now you're really living

People sing

Do you know what it's like to fall on the floor?

And cry your guts out 'til you got no more?

Hey man! Now you're really living

Just saw the sun rise over the hill

Never used to give me much of a thrill

But hey man! Now I'm really living...
