De las actuaciones más memorables de este año en el Summercase, me viene a la mente la de The Verve, y eso que la de Grinderman fue magistral (puto ascazo). Llegaron con un retraso de casi media hora, y ya muchos de los que nos impacientábamos, temíamos lo peor; alguna movida en el backstage poco antes de comenzar. Pero finalmente salieron y tocaron increíblemente bien. Richard Ashcrof estuvo genial en todo momento y con una muy buena conexión con el público. Un gran concierto.

El texto de arriba solo era una excusa para poner esta canción de The Verve, de las mejores, si no es la mejor que han hecho.

The Verve – Drugs Don´t Work

All this talk of getting old
It’s getting me down my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I’m comin’ down

And I hope you’re thinking of me
As you lay down on your side
Now the drugs don’t work
They just make you worse
But I know I’ll see your face again

Now the drugs don’t work
They just make you worse
But I know I’ll see your face again

But I know I’m on a losing streak
‘Cause I passed down my old street
And if you wanna show, then just let me know
And I’ll sing in your ear again

Now the drugs don’t work
They just make you worse
But I know I’ll see your face again

‘Cause baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I’m coming, too
Just like you said, you leave my life, I’m better off dead

All this talk of getting old
It’s getting me down my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I’m comin’ down

Now the drugs don’t work
They just make you worse
But I know I’ll see your face again

‘Cause baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I’m coming, too
Just like you said, you leave my life, I’m better off dead

But if you wanna show, just let me know
And I’ll sing in your ear again

Now the drugs don’t work
They just make you worse
But I know I’ll see your face again

Yeah, I know I’ll see your face again
Yeah, I know I’ll see your face again
Yeah, I know I’ll see your face again
Yeah, I know I’ll see your face again

I’m never going down, I’m never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
I’m never coming down, I’m never going down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
