Top Camela
: wt gru 03, 2013 5:16 pm
Myślałem, że nigdy nie będzie już topu jednego z moich ukochanych zespołów, ale jednak. W zasadzie to powinienem zrobić jakiś długi wstęp uzasadniający, dlaczego warto poznać tę grupę, ale najkrócej rzecz biorąc jest Camel w pewnym sensie przeciwieństwem Black Sabbath. Niby też mają perkusję, gitary, bas, ale jednak grają zupełnie inaczej. Zamiast chropowatości, agresywnego basu i demonicznego wyglądu mamy długie solówki, pasaże na instrumentach klawiszowych i niesamowity klimat, a do tego bardzo mądre teksty. Podczas pierwszego i jedynego zlotu toruńskiego, gdy w miniaturowym pokoju w campingu Tramp odpaliłem jedną ze swoich starych zagadek muzycznych, jedynym utworem rozpoznanym po jednej nutce była "Selva" - sygnał Nocy Muzycznych Pejzaży. Także ze znajomością grupy wśród forowiczów chyba nie jest tak źle. Na koniec jeszcze jeden z moich ulubionych tekstów Wielbłąda:
Fingertips
In the time it takes to laugh,
love can turn the key.
Crystal clear the future lies
and what will be will be.
Don't hold it back,
take the chance you missed.
Don't hold it back,
fill the emptiness.
Soon the time to say farewell,
will come with no return.
Older now but wiser from
lessons we have learned.
Don't hold it back,
take the chance you missed.
Don't hold it back,
fill the emptiness.
Slip through your fingertips,
Speak from your heart don't let it
Slip through your fingertips,
Search for the feeling in it.
Don't let it -
Slip through your fingertips,
Lost if you leave too late.
All at your fingertips,
Gone if you hesitate.
Termin trwania topu, jak to już niektórzy proponowali - do końca stycznia, a ponieważ styczeń kończy się w piątek, a w każdy niemal piątek wieczorem jestem w pracy, więc zakończenie planuję na sobotę, 1 lutego, godz. 22. Oczywiście bez przedłużania.
Głosujemy na 5 płyt studyjnych (chyba że ktoś bardzo chce na jakąś koncertową, to wtedy zrobię 2 klasyfikacje - oficjalną i nieoficjalną) oraz 20 utworów.
