Rainin all summer..



Έσπαγα τις προάλλες που ήθελα να γράψω μετά από καιρό στο μπλογκ μου, να βρω εκείνο το τραγούδι - ψιλο γκλαμ ροκ, ψιλο χαρντ ροκ αλλα 100% 80s- που έλεγε rainin all summer!

Τελικά έγραψα το ποστ χωρίς να θυμηθώ! Όπωςγίνεται συνήθως καναδυό μέρες μετά στο άσχετο, το θυμήθηκα! Αφού το βρήκα στο youtube, γραμμένο από το MTV μάλιστα, είπα να το βάλω εδώ! Το γκρουπ λέγεται Nuclear Valdez, ο δίσκος I Am I, το τραγούδι Summer και το έτος είναι το 1989!!!

Μακρύ μαλλί χαίτη και τα 80s είναι στο κύκνειο τους άσμα!!!

Nuclear Valdez - Summer

For those of you who may not remember, Nuclear Valdez is a Miami rock band that released a couple of albums in the late 80s and early 90s, then went into obscurity until a few years ago when they resurfaced and released a new studio CD.

Comprised mainly of Cuban-Americans, their first single and video, Summer, received plenty of airplay on South Florida radio. They even caught the attention of MTV, which played the video on fairly heavy rotation, as well as featuring the band in one of their "Unplugged" programs.

Summer deals with the Cuban revolution, from the perspective of Cuban-Americans. Most of us can certainly relate to these lyrics:

War fell upon an island
When a single handed man
Raped the land of simple men

In the year 1959
Red was more than just a stain
It became hunger pains

As they flew away up high
Tears fell from the sky
And it rained and it rained and it rained all summer
It rained and it rained and it rained all night

Hope soon becomes a poison
Working in a factory
Sewing dreams to memories

Far away, in a dying place
A wife will miss her husband's face
Curse her race for their disgrace

As they flew away up high
Tears fell from the sky
And it rained and it rained and it rained all summer
It rained and it rained and it rained all night

Simple but direct and heartfelt lyrics sung with tons of emotion by Fro Sosa. I love the melancholic urgency (there's a phrase for you!) of the music, which conveys both the sadness and frustration that Cuban-Americans feel.
