The Wall Immersion
Saiu o “Immersion Box” do The Wall.
Um “Immersion Box” é uma caixona com 6 CD’s e 1 DVD com tudo remasterizado e muitos, muitos, muitos extras da grande obra-prima do Pink Floyd, de 1979.
Você mergulha, como convém mesmo a um bom Pink Floyd.
Os dois CDs do box que você quer muito, são o 5 e o 6, só com demos e com vários minutos do processo de criação de The Wall (surpresa abaixo, continue lendo).
Registro histórico, porque foi nesse disco que Roger Waters abriu suas asinhas e o PF ganhou o seu famoso acabamento “super-polido” e elegante. É, sem dúvida, um dos maiores álbuns de Rock de todos os tempos.
E como eu acho que leitor do UoD merece ter acesso as coisas boas da vida, antes, segue um link para degustação (mas se você é fã mesmo, claro que vale a pena comprar o Box):
Abaixo, um gostinho do que você poderá ouvir: um sensacional demo, meio making-of, de Comfortably Numb, antes de ganhar letra:

E que, depois, ficou confortavelmente entorpecida (alô internet) assim:

Bela letra pra ler de vez em sempre, depois do jump (The child is grown? The dream is gone?)
Comfortably Numb (Waters)
Hello?
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone at home?
Come on, now,
I hear you’re feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain
And get you on your feet again.
Relax.
I need some information first.
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it hurts?
There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship, smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re saying.
When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I’ve got that feeling once again
I can’t explain you would not understand
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.
(solo)
I have become comfortably numb.
O. K.
Just a little pin prick.
There’ll be no more AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
But you may feel a little sick.
Can you stand up?
I do believe its working. Good.
That’ll keep you going through the show
Come on it’s time to go.
There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship, smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re saying.
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown,
The dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.
