Forever young

Esta música começou a tocar hoje quando estava a tomar banho e mexeu comigo. Como é obvio ja a conheço há alguns aninhos e sempre a curti. O engraçado é que fez-me lembrar de um pequeno texto que de inicio julgava ser do Jerry Seinfeld mas afinal é de George Carlin:

"The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it? A Death! What’s that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you’re too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you’re young enough to enjoy your retirement. You do drugs, alcohol, you party, you get ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating …and you finish off as an orgasm."

E apesar desta música ter uns anintos não perdeu qualidade, como prova disso está o reaproveitamento feito pelos Youth Group. Espero que eu com o passar do tempo também não esteja a perder qualidades. Mas se calhar como não as tenho também não as posso perder. :D
Whatever! ;)

PS: Para quem não sabe o original é dos Alphaville

Lyrics:
Let's dance in style, lets dance for a while
Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are you going to drop the bomb or not?
Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
The music's for the sad men
Can you imagine when this race is won
Turn our golden faces into the sun
Praising our leaders we're getting in tune
The music's played by the madman


Forever young, i want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever forever
Forever young, i want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever
Forever young


Some are like water, some are like the heat
Some are a melody and some are the beat
Sooner or later they all will be gone
Why don't they stay young
It's so hard to get old without a cause
I don't want to perish like a fading horse
Youth is like diamonds in the sun
And diamonds are forever
So many adventures couldn't happen today
So many songs we forgot to play
So many dreams are swinging out of the blue
We let them come true

Forever young, i want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever forever
Forever young, i want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever forever forever
Forever young, i want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever forever
Forever young, i want to be forever

hummm... cheira-me a crise de 1 terço de idade (pq para a crise de meia idade ainda és mt novo :-)e estou a ser muuuito optimista pq a esperança média de vida de um homem não é 90 anos)!!! N tenhas os olhos no fim pq ele vai chegar sem pré-aviso, mantém-te focado no agora e goza ao máximo pq daqui a 5 minutos podes já não estar cá. Sim...Eu sei... 1 comentário deprimente mas é a realidade, infelizmente sei bem! E eu sou 1 besta por isso posso dizer sempre o que penso! Por isso deixa-te lá de momentos "Benjamin Button" ;-)
