Rock: Canción #5: "Animals" - Nickelback

I, I'm driving black on black
Just got my license back
I got this feeling in my veins this train is coming off the track
I'll ask polite if the devil needs a ride
Because the angel on my right ain't hanging out with me
tonight
I'm driving past your house while you were sneaking out
I got the car door opened up so you can jump in on the run
Your mom don't know that you were missing
She'd be pissed if she could see the parts of you that I've been kissing
Screamin'

No, we're never gonna quit
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Just acting like we're animals
No, no matter where we go
'Cause everybody knows
We're just a couple animals

So come on baby, get in
Get in, just get in
Check out the trouble we're in

You're beside me on the seat
Got your hand between my knees
And you control how fast we go by just how hard you wanna squeeze
It's hard to steer when you're breathing in my ear
But I got both hands on the wheel while you got both hands on my gears
By now, no doubt that we were heading south
I guess nobody ever taught her not to speak with a full mouth
'Cause this was it, like flicking on a switch
It felt so good I almost drove into the ditch
I'm screamin'

No, we're never gonna quit
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Just acting like we're animals
No, no matter where we go
'Cause everybody knows
We're just a couple animals
So come on baby, get in
Get in, just get in
Look at the trouble we're in

We were parked out by the tracks
We're sitting in the back
And we just started getting busy
When she whispered "what was that?"
The wind, I think 'cause no one else knows where we are
And that was when she started screamin'
"That's my dad outside the car!"
Oh please, the keys, they're not in the ignition
Must have wound up on the floor while
we were switching our positions
I guess they knew that she was missing
As I tried to tell her dad it was her mouth that I was
kissing
Screamin'

No, we're never gonna quit
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Just acting like we're animals
No, no matter where we go
'Cause everybody knows
We're just a couple animals
So come on baby, get in
We're just a couple animals
Get in, just get in
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Check out the trouble we're in
We're just a couple animals
Get in, just get in

Animals
fue incluida en el album All the Right Reasons, publicado en 2005 por el grupo canadiense Nickelback. Fue lanzada como single en 2006 y alcanzó el #1 en el US Mainstream Rock.

El tema supone un soplo de aire fresco dentro del album e incluso del estilo que ha venido siguiendo la banda durante sus 3 últimos discos. Estamos ante una canción que es Rock en estado puro, ritmos fuertemente marcados con una combinación de guitarra eléctrica-bajo-batería que hace temblar a cualquiera. Y es que los zambombazos de esta última son increibles, fijaos en el comienzo de la canción, espectacular.

El tema transmite justo lo que quiere transmitir, aventura, locuras, sexo (ups, esta palabra aumentará el número de búsquedas no deseadas en google xD)... y es que no hace falta ni leer la letra para sentir la canción, aunque no voy a engañaros, leedla, haceos un favor.

Me encanta la forma de contar la historia, con melodia y fuerza en el estribillo y tirando de bajo y batería en las partes "habladas", haciendo que estos fragmentos tengan más ritmo si cabe.

Siento repetir artista (aun tengo mucho mucho guardado en la recámara), pero después del parón en el blog (lo siento, las prácticas y estar enfermo durante una semana tuvieron la culpa), había que empezar con algo así para retomar con fuerzas el asunto.

Tengo que destacar esta parte de la letra, lo siento, me veo obligado, por la de carcajadas que me llevé la primera vez (y aun ahora) que la escuche.

You're beside me on the seat
Got your hand between my knees
And you control how fast we go by just how hard you wanna squeeze
It's hard to steer when you're breathing in my ear
But I got both hands on the wheel while you got both hands on my gears
By now, no doubt that we were heading south
I guess nobody ever taught her not to speak with a full mouth
'Cause this was it, like flicking on a switch
It felt so good I almost drove into the ditch
I'm screamin'

Un último apunte, merece la pena escuchar la canción en un .mp3 decente, pierde muchísima calidad en youtube.

Que la disfrutéis!

PD: Si necesitáis traducción, pedidla, los comentarios para eso están.
PD2: Brutal el cover del single xD.
