Nothing compares to you...

Οι καλαμιώνες της Μικρής Πρέσπας είναι το καλύτερο περιβάλλον για το τραγούδι που με συνοδεύει τον τελευταίο καιρό.Τό Nothing compares to you της Sinead O'Connor στην εκτέλεση του Jimmy Scott απο το soundtrack της ταινίας του Αλμοδοβάρ Viva la tristeza. Αν μπορέσω θα ανεβάσω link για να ακουστεί αυτή η συγκεκριμένη εκτέλεση γιατί η πρωτότυπη, παρά ότι είναι της δημιουργού, απέχει από το αίσθημα και την λιτότητα της εκτέλεσης που προτείνω. Σήμερα θα αρκεστώ στους στίχους που ούτως ή άλλως και απο μόνοι τους είναι συγκλονιστικοί.

It's been seven hours and fifteen days

since you took your love away.

I go out every night and sleep all day

since you took your love away.

Since you've been gone I can do whatever I want,

I can see whomever I choose.

I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant,

but nothing, can take away these blues.

Nothing compares…

nothing compares to you.

It's been so lonely without you here

like a bird without a song.

Nothing can stop these lonely tears.

Tell me baby where did I go wrong?

I could put my arms round every girl I see

but they'd only remind me of you.

I went to the doctor, guess what he told me,

he said: “you never going to have some fun

no matter what you do”.

Nothing compares…

nothing compares to you.

All the flowers that you planted

in the backyard,

all died when you went away.

I know that living with you, baby,

was sometimes hard

but I'm willing to give it another try.

Nothing compares…

nothing compares to you.

Nothing compares…

nothing compares to you.

Nothing compares...

nothing compares to you.
