O nama ovisi kakav će biti naš svijet.
Pocrnio?
Tjeskoban?
Tužan?
Ili, bolje reći / napisati, jedno veliko ILI:
Čudesan i predivan?
Mi biramo…
još neko vrijeme…
tika-taka
tika-taka
tika-taka
tika-taka
Za naš su svijet neki glazbenici zabrinuti i crni im se pred očima…
Drugi su njime očarani…
Poslušajte!
Pocrnio
Godine 2008. francuski heavy metal bend Gojira objavio je novi album i na njemu pjesmu Toxic Garbage Island u kojoj progovara (više urla;) o tome kako svijet klizi u vrtlogu plutajućih otpadaka:
Godine 1988. na čuvenom Metallicinu albumu …And Justice For All izašla je – pod rednim brojem 1 – pjesma Blackened apokaliptične tematike od prve strofe, prvoga stiha, ma od prve riječi:
Blackened is the end
Winter it will send
Throwing all you see
Into obscurity…
Tjeskoban
U svojoj pjesmi Earth Song objavljenoj 1982. godine pita nas Michael Jackson:
What have we done to the world?
Tužan
The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking
Tugu nam u svojoj istoimenoj pjesmi Sorrow iz 1987. godine donose majstori zvuka i svjetlosti – britanski sastav Pink Floyd:
There’s an unceasing wind that blows through this night
And there’s dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight
And silence that speaks so much louder than words
Of promises broken
Čudesan i predivan
Bob Marley pjesmom Sun Is Shining, objavljenom 1971. godine na albumu Soul Revolution, donosi nam ljepše ozračje i više povjerenja u našu vrstu:
Sun is shining
Weather is sweet
Make you want to move
Your dancing feet, now
Godine 1967. Louis Armstrong uzavreli svijet oplemenio je singlom na kojem je pjesma What A Wonderful World:
I see trees so green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you.
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
I see skies so blue and clouds so white.
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night.
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by.
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do.
They’re really saying I love you.
I hear babies crying, I watch them grow.
They’ll learn much more than I’ll ever know.
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
