Jamiroquai - Corner of the Earth

No soy un gran seguidor de esta banda aunque siempre he sentido un profundo respeto por lo que hacen y cierta admiración por su lider Jay Kay. En cualquier caso hace relativamente poco tiempo que escuché este tema del 2002, perteneciente a su álbum A Funk Odyssey y se está conviertiendo en mi tema personal del verano, ya que su pegadizo ritmo bossa nova no deja de acompañarme allá donde vaya bajo este inclemente sol. Aquí van el video y la letra.




Little darlin' don't you see the sun is shining
Just for you, only today
If you hurry you can get a ray on you, come with me, just to play
Like every humming bird and bumblebee
Every sunflower, cloud and every tree
I feel so much a part of this
Nature's got me high and it's beautiful
I'm with this deep eternal universe
From death until rebirth

This corner of the earth is like me in many ways
I can sit for hours here and watch the emerald feathers play
On the face of it I'm blessed
When the sunlight comes for free
I know this corner of the earth it smiles at me
So inspired of that there's nothing left to do or say
Think I'll dream, 'til the stars shine

The wind it whispers and the clouds don't seem to care
And I know inside, that it's all mine
It's the chorus of the breakin' dawn
The mist that comes before the sun is born
To a hazy afternoon in May
Nature's got me high and it's so beautiful
I'm with this deep eternal universe from death until rebirth

You know that this corner of the earth is like me in many ways
I can sit for hours here and watch the emerald feathers play
On the face of it I'm blessed
When the sunlight comes for free
I know this corner of the earth it smiles at me
I know this corner of the earth it smiles at me
I know this corner of the earth it smiles at me
I know this corner of the earth it smiles at me
I know this corner of the earth it smiles at me

This corner of the earth, is like me in many ways
I can sit for hours here and watch the emerald feathers play
On the face of it I'm blessed
When the sunlight comes for free
I know this corner of the earth it smiles at me

Otros temas que me parece alucinantes de este grupo son Deeper Underground y Supersonic, ambos
también acompañados de espectaculares videos que podéis ver siguiendo el enlace de sus títulos.

cuando escucho una cancion por primera vez, prefiero no ver el video.despues de escuchar viendo el video, este tema me parece refrescante, aunque cierro los ojos, y no se si es por el video,por el tiempo de hoy, por la letra o por el ritmo.de todas formas hoy me he acordado de "Cosmic Girl" un tema que yo amaba mucho en esa epoca...
