Please

En marzo de 1997 los U2 publicaron el álbum Pop. Para mí uno de los mejores del grupo irlandés. Flirtean con la electrónica, con el dance, e incluso con el techno, en canciones como Mofo, y endurecen los guitarreos de The edge.

El resultado es excepcionalmente bueno.

El undécimo tema de Pop es Please.

Once años disfrutando de la canción número once de Pop y hasta hoy no he podido disfrutarla con todo su potencial... Su video engrandece aún más la canción.

No os la perdáis.

Please.



So you never knew love
until you crossed the line of grace
And you never felt wanted
till you had someone slap your face
And you never felt alive
until you almost wasted away

You had to win
You couldn't just pass
The smartest ass
At the top of the class
Your flying colours
Your family tree
And all your lessons in history

Please... please... please get up off your knees now...
Please... please... please leave me out

So you never knew
how long you'd stoop to make that call
And you never knew
what was on the ground till they made you crawl
So you never knew
that the heaven you keep you stole

Your catholic blues
Your convent shoes
Your stick on tattoos
Now they're making the news
Your holy war
Your northern star
Your sermon on the mount
From the boot of your car

Please...please... please get up off your knees now
Please...please... please leave me out of this

So love is hard and love is tough
But love is not what you're thinking of

September... streets capsizing...
spilling over down the drain
shards of glass splinters like rain
But you could only feel your own pain...
october... talking getting nowhere...
November... December... remember...
are we just starting again...?

Please...please... please get up off your knees now
Please...

So love is big... Is bigger than us
But love is not what you're thinking of
It's what lovers deal it's what lovers steal
You know i've found it hard to recieve
Cause you my love I could never believe
