Lee Hazlewood - In Memoriam

Some Velvet Morning
Some velvet mornin' when I'm straight
I'm gonna open up your gate
And maybe tell you 'bout Phaedra
And how she gave me life
And how she made it end
Some velvet mornin' when I'm straight

Flowers growing on a hill, dragonflies and daffodils
Learn from us very much, look at us but do not touch
Phaedra is my name

Some velvet mornin' when I'm straight
I'm gonna open up your gate
And maybe tell you 'bout Phaedra
And how she gave me life
And how she made it end
Some velvet mornin' when I'm straight

Flowers are the things we know, secrets are the things we grow
Learn from us very much, look at us but do not touch
Phaedra is my name

Some velvet mornin' when I'm straight
Flowers growing on a hill
I'm gonna open up your gate
dragonflies and daffodils
And maybe tell you 'bout Phaedra
Learn from us very much
And how she gave me life
look at us but do not touch
FADE
And how she made it end


Azi am aflat ca la 4 August s-a stins din viatza dupa o boala necrutzatoare unul in preferatzii mei si sant sigur ca si ai multor altora din generatzia noastra: Lee Hazlewood - cu vocea sa adanca si impresionanta si care impreuna cu Nancy Sinatra a format un cuplu extraordinar, duo in care dupa parerea mea Lee a a vut partea majora nu numai prin vocea sa deosebita, ci si prin faptul ca el a scris o mare parte din cantece.

Ars longa, vita bravis: Lee a disparut insa "Lady Bird", "Jackson", "These boots are made for walking" (cantat numai de Nancy, compus de Lee), "Summer wine", magicul "Some Velvet Morning" si multe alte creatzii ale lui, fie cantate, fie compuse, raman cu noi.
