This is one of the ultimate "cut your wrist, put some salt and lemon on it and cry your eyes out" songs. First I'll leave the drawing and the cover (yes, a cover, and a good one too!) and then I'll get into some things I cannot (for my own sanity) keep out.
Well, this song breaks your heart without mercy, unfortunately or fortunately (you be the judge) I was listening to the non vocals mariachi version (yes, you read correctly, MARIACHI, and it rocked). So here, enjoy the song which inspired this drawing and after that we'll talk more :P
Oooook... now... where was I? Ah yes, now this song, to me (and this has always been a huuuge debate with Oscar) is best performed live with Bryan May, I know, Fredy is the bomb and he wrote it, but May gives it a little punch to the gut feeling when played live... Now... I do want to clarify that nothing NOTHING compares to the studio version... so let's check that one out... shall we?
Ok... now.. this next version was recorded on the Queen + Paul Rodgers tour... when I saw those guys and Bryan played it with his 12 string guitar, I WAS SO CLOSE TO CRYING, it was so beautiful, best performance EVER, unfortunately i had no way to record that, so I only have the memory...
Sooooooooooo ladies and gents... that was a mini class of "love of my life"... from Mariachi... to piano... to guitar... this song will always cut my heart out and serve it with powdered chilli... I hope it got to you as well... and if it didn't.... damn... you have no soul... jeje... enjoy and thank you for reading...
today's drawing was inspired by black bird performed by Evan Rachel Wood, this song is different to what Paul McCartney plays... but it's worth the listen...
Another reference to across the universe... if you haven't seen the movie... it's highly recommended...
black bird singing in the dead of night... enjoy...
"everything changes" by Staind was the inspiration for today's drawing... let's see what tomorrow brings... I know... its not a huge post... I just don't feel like writing much... drawing is more my thing... and music... as always... is important in my life...
