No meio de tanto lixo musical que se vê hoje em dia, há sempre uma ou outra letra que se destaca pela positiva. Lembro-me de umas 10 ou 20 muito bem escritas e principalmente, fora da vulgaridade habitual. Como exemplo destaco o "Black" dos Pearl Jam, uma letra que só podia ter sido escrita por um gajo com um par de chifres do tamanho da torre eiffel num momento de profunda desilusão.
Não aprecio o estado de espírito mas a letra é muito boa. E vocês lembram-se de alguma que vos tenha marcado ou que achem particularmente bem consguida?

Pearl Jam - Black
Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything?
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black
Tattooed everything...
I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear?
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin around my head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can, drop away
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black
Tattooed everything...
All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I will be...
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a star
In somebody else's sky, but why, why, why
Can't it be, can't it be mine
