I've read more than a hundred books
Seeing love mentioned many thousand times
But despite all the places I've looked
It's still no clearer
It's just not enough
I'm still no clearer
The meaning of love
Noted down all my observations
Spent an evening watching television
Still I couldn't say with precision
Know it's a feeling and
it comes from above
But what's the meaning
The meaning of love
(Tell me)
From the notes that I've made so far
Love seems something like wanting a scar
But I could be wrong
I'm just not sure you see
I'm never been in love before
Next I asked several friends of mine
If they could spare a few
minutes of their time
Their looks suggested that
I've lost my mind
Tell me the answer
My Lord high above
Tell me the meaning
The meaning of love
From the notes that I've made so far
Love seems something like wanting a scar
But I could be wrong
I'm just not sure you see
I'm never been in love before
The meaning of love
(Tell me)
Tell me the meaning of love.

En fin, llevo toooda la mañana escuchando The meaning of love de Depeche mode... Confieso nunca he sido muy devoto de Gaham y sus huestes tecnopoperas (soy así de rarito, siempre me han gustado más Ultravox y derivados). Pero bueno, la canción en concreto me pone de buen humor, y tiene unos arreglos desternillantes de puro verbeneros... y una buena letra.
Efectivamente, el amor es como querer una cicatriz... y es una suerte haber cerrado ya todas mis heridas.
Cierro con un apunte de la noche del jueves: los habituales que faltaron anoche a la obligada cita en Tunel se perdieron una estupenda sesión de Kale Blanche, muy bien hilada, repleta de grupos que no suelen sonar demasiado... a mí me pareció una especie de tributo involuntario a los recopilatorios de Mick Mercer. Y es que los que nacimos y crecimos con los tres volúmenes del GOTHIC ROCK, salimos sanos y fuertes!! Feeding on Slumber supo darle continuidad al hilo musical cuando recogió el testigo, y darle un toque español que recibí con agrado.
