Dirty Pretty Things - Wondering

Por que os Libertines acabaram, por quê?
Por que eles não aproveitaram aquele Reunion de 2007 para voltar a continuar o que vinham fazendo tão bem?
Malditos, malditos...
Mas com o final da banda, seus dois líderes montaram bandas maravilhosas, talvez não tão brilhantes quanto às da época em que eles estavam juntos, porém com uma porrada de canções que empolgam e orgulham seus antigos fãs, tanto quanto as canções dos Libs.
Começo com a banda do Carl Barât, e trago aquela que considero a melhor canção deles, a qual se encontra no primeiro álbum da banda, o Waterloo to Anywhere, de 2006.
Dou destaque a ela pela guitarra que abre solando, de forma simples mas suficiente para que você assimile-a à canção, além do contrabaixo que dá uma bela marcação durante a música inteira, ou seja ambos em conjunto, somados à voz, com sotaque britânico fortíssimo, do Carl, fazem de Wondering um hit fácil de ser bem aceito por qualquer pessoa que curta post-punk de boa qualidade.

We were so pretty now is this it
You and I are too young for this
No blood no lust or spit
But still there is something there to play upon
A flash of instant thereabouts youll miss it and its gone
But still its good to be in love with someone
When you’ve always had to be with no one.
She said everyones a story of their own
But if we don’t leave now well find ourselves with no way home
And so we strolled on all bangered and confused
At first it wasn’t pretty but we soon undid that rouse so
Now we got something in many other ways
All the boys together and a knees up on the way
Still its good to be in love with someone
When you’ve always had to be with no one.
She said everyone’s a story of their own
But if we dont leave now well find ourselves with no way home
Find ourselves with no way home
And it occurred to me, I think on Lambeth Road
There’s no more need to question life
Or cry for what I’m owed
And now its over so now its done
The English sun is setting and the rude boys on the run oh
Still its good to be in love with someone
When you’ve always had to be with no one.
Still I need you to remind me every day
The lives and loves weve lost and broken on the way
Heres to tomorrow and the lonely streets well roam
But if we don’t leave now well find ourselves with no way home
Just to think were almost home
