Siempre recordaré que hace muchos años (mas de diez), mi primo me recomendó que escuchara Portishead. Anoche estaba viendo Alondra, un reportaje sobre el proceso de un transexual para cambiar de sexo, y no dudaron en poner esta canción al principio, subtitulando la letra para darle mas potencia. Es una música envolvente increíble, que puede acompañar muchas escenas, pero en el reportaje me resultó sobrecogedora.
Si, el vídeo es solamente música, pero el que ha colgado el vídeo musical original no permite compartirlo.
I’m so tired of playing,
Playing with this bow and arrow,
Gonna give my heart away,
Leave it to the other girls to play.
For I’ve been a tempteress too long,
CHORUS:
Oh yeah,
Give me a reason to love you,
Give me a reason to be a women,
I just want to be a woman
From this time unchained,
Were all looking at a different picture,
Through this new frame of mind,
A thousand flowers could bloom,
Move over and give us some room
CHORUS
So don’t you stop being a man,
Just take a little look from outside when you can,
Sow a little a tenderness,
No matter if you cry
CHORUS
{Its all I want to be, a woman,
So I just want to be a woman,
For this is the beginning of forever and ever,
Its time to move over now,
(So I want to be)
