about

No hay nada que nos motive más que salirnos de nuestra zona de confort... y eso fue lo que nos hizo Vicky Luna cuando le propusimos este tema. Gracias a su empuje y su entusiasmo nos metimos a escribir una nueva letra para el tema y a grabarlo con la referencia del Mingus de Joni Mitchell en la cabeza.
Por suerte para nosotros, contamos primero con Javi Ortí, inspiradísimo al soprano (casi nada) y, ante todo y sobre todo, con la voz de Vicky Luna, que se midió a este tema, tan complejo y con tantas pendientes por las que es facilísimo despeñarse. Pero en lugar de eso, no solo redondeó el tema de forma magistral, además lo hizo suyo en cada nota.
Qué difícil es, y qué fácil hace que parezca...

lyrics

Her eyes, those infant eyes
That laugh lost in a world
Where she is young again
And time, time has no end

And somehow, she's safe and sound
And there is no remorse
Or pain, those infant eyes
She wears each time she smiles

She's gone, that what they say
I take these tiny hands
In mine, those infant eyes
They seem so happy now...
