«I wonder» (Rodríguez)

Qué deliciosa canción: «I wonder», de Sixto Rodríguez.

La vida de este enigmático cantante de Detroit explicada en el laureado documental «Searching for Sugar Man» es una de las mejores películas que he visto en los últimos tiempos.

Aparte de la belleza de las canciones, un gran mensaje de fondo: los complicados caminos que sigue (o deja de seguir) el reconocimiento del talento.

I wonder how many times you’ve been had
And I wonder how many plans have gone bad
I wonder how many times you had sex
I wonder do you know who’ll be next
I wonder l wonder wonder I do

I wonder about the love you can’t find
And I wonder about the loneliness that’s mine
I wonder how much going have you got
And I wonder about your friends that are not
I wonder I wonder I wonder I do

I wonder about the tears in children’s eyes
And I wonder about the soldier that dies
I wonder will this hatred ever end
I wonder and worry my friend
I wonder I wonder wonder don’t you?

I wonder how many times you been had
And I wonder how many dreams have gone bad
I wonder how many times you’ve had sex
And I wonder do you care who’ll be next
I wonder I wonder wonder I do
