En mi apertura del baúl de los recuerdos a través del Spotify, en este caso, he vuelto a reencontrarme con esta canción que sin ser un gran éxito ni de gran repercusión, tiene un significado que podemos trasladarlo desde la ilusión y el esfuerzo a lo que vivimos en los días que nos acontecen.
"...pero jamás dejaré de soñar
y solo podré conseguir
la fe que queráis conseguir..."
y solo podré conseguir
la fe que queráis conseguir..."
Don't Cry for Me Argentina (No llores por mí Argentina) es la canción más conocida del musical Evita, creado en 1978 por Andrew Lloyd Webber (música) y Tim Rice (letras). El tema representa un emotivo discurso de Evita en el balcón de la Casa Rosada, frente a las masas de descamisados, tras ganar Perón las elecciones presidenciales de 1946 y convertirse ella en la Primera Dama de la Argentina.
La canción ha tenido mucho éxito en diversos países, gozando de gran
popularidad, este musical a su vez fue inspiración para la
película-musical, que lleva el mismo nombre, protagonizada por Madonna (Evita), Jonathan Pryce (Perón) y Antonio Banderas (Ché), dirigida por Alan Parker.
"It won't be easy, you'll think it strange
When I try to explain how I feel
That I still need your love after all that I've done
You won't believe me
All you will see is a girl you once knew
Although she's dressed up to the nines
At sixes and sevens with you
I had to let it happen, I had to change
Couldn't stay all my life down at heel
Looking out of the window, staying out of the sun
So I chose freedom
Running around, trying everything new
But nothing impressed me at all
I never expected it to
[Chorus:]
Don't cry for me Argentina
The truth is I never left you
All through my wild days
My mad existence
I kept my promise
Don't keep your distance
And as for fortune, and as for fame
I never invited them in
Though it seemed to the world they were all I desired
They are illusions
They are not the solutions they promised to be
The answer was here all the time
I love you and hope you love me
Don't cry for me Argentina
[chorus]
Have I said too much?
There's nothing more I can think of to say to you.
But all you have to do is look at me to know
That every word is true"
