A Lorena le apasiona cantar, me escribe que lo hace mientras cocina, en el trabajo, bajo la ducha, cualquier ocasión es buena para hacerlo, aunque la miren con cara extraña. Le gustan, como dice, los hits de los 70 a los 90. Me la presentó mi primo Pablo, como a varios de sus amigos, hace un par de semanas (y desde hace un par de semanas tengo la sensación de escribirme con media Argentina). Lorena es cordobesa, de la Córdoba argentina. Hace unos días me mandó unas grabaciones caseras con su banda, 3 de corazones. Antes de escuchar las canciones pensaba encontrarme con una banda eléctrica, la típica formación de voz, guitarra, bajo y batería del rock. Pero me encontré con versiones acústicas de éxitos de Evanescence o Youssou N´Dour. Lorena y su hermana Luciana Fuentes a las voces, Luciano Russo a la guitarra acústica. Subo dos canciones, 7 seconds, de Youssou N´Dour y Neneh Cherry y My Inmortal, de Evanescence, que me gustaron por el juego de las dos voces y el toque intimista de estas canciones. Lorena, con “desastre” y todo, se siente orgullosa de ellas y es feliz cuando canta. Y es normal. Tiene que ser especial poder sacar de dentro aquello que sientes a través de la voz o la escritura o cualquier otra manifestación artística. Aunque sea para uno mismo. Sentirse feliz…
Dejo las versiones de 7 seconds y My Inmortal a cargo de 3 de corazones.

7 seconds (Youssou N´Dour y Neneh Cherry)



Boul ma sene, boul ma guiss madi re nga fokni mane
Khamouma li neka thi sama souf ak thi guinaw
Beugouma kouma khol oaldine yaw li neka si yaw
mo ne si man, li ne si mane moye dilene diapale

Roughneck and rudeness,
We should be using, on the ones who practice wicked charms
For the sword and the stone
Bad to the bone
Battle is not over
Even when it's won

And when a child is born into this world
It has no concept
Of the tone the skin is living in

It's not a second
But seven seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
But seven seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting (x3)

J'assume les raisons qui nous poussent de changer tout
J'aimerais qu'on oublie leur couleur pour qu'ils espèrent
Beaucoup de sentiments de race qui font qu'ils désespèrent
Je veux les portes grandement ouvertes
Des amis pour parler de leur peine, de leur joie
Pour qu'ils leur filent des infos
Qui ne divisent pas changer

Seven seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
But seven seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting(x3)

And when a child is born into this world
It has no concept
Of the tone the skin is living in

And there's a million voices
And there's a million voices

To tell you what she should be thinking
So you better sober up for just a second

Seven seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
But seven seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
But seven seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting



My Inmortal (Evanescence)



I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating life
Now I'm bound by the life you've left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me


I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
