Take the Box


J'aurai quand même versé une larme pour la mort d'Amy Winehouse, que j'ai écouté et écouté pendant une période sombre de ma vie. Cette chanteuse et auteur-compositrice avait en elle une certaine auto-destruction et un manque d'attachement à la vie, mais en même temps tellement de charisme et de talent que sa voix et ses paroles me donnent toujours des frissons... Une tragédie de se laisser partir à 27 ans, mais il n'y a que les légendes qui meurent si jeune. Repose en paix Amy.
(Ci-dessous les paroles de mon morceau préféré: Take the Box.)

I shed a tear for the death of Amy Winehouse, who I listened to again and again during a dark period of my life. This singer and songwriter had some self-destruction and lack of attachment to life, but at the same time so much charisma and talent that her voice and lyrics still give me shivers ... A tragedy to let herself go away at age 27, but there are only legends who die so young. Rest in peace Amy.
(Below the lyrics of my favorite song: Take the Box.)

---------------------------------------------------------------
Your neighbours were screaming
I don't have a key for downstairs, 

So I punched all the buzzers hoping you wouldn't be there
So now my head's hurting
You say I always get my own way
But you were in the shower when I got there, 

I'd have wanted to stay, but I got nothing to say

Cos you were so beautiful before today

But then I heard what you got to say...man that was ugly

The Moschino bra you bought me last Christmas

Put it in the box, put it in the box
Frank's in there and I don't care
Put it in the box, put it in the box
Just take it
Take the box

I came home this evening and nothing felt like how it should be
I feel like writing you a letter but that is not me...you know me
Feel so f*cking angry; don't wanna be reminded of you
But when I left my sh*t in your kitchen, 

I said goodbye to your bedroom, it smelled of you

Mr False Pretence, you don't make sense

I just don't know you
But you made me cry, where's my kiss goodbye?
I think I love you

The Moschino bra you bought me last Christmas

Put it in the box, put it in the box
Frank's in there and I don't care
Put it in the box, put it in the box
Now take it
Take the box...
