DEL SOUNDTRACK DE MI VIDA.Track 4.

Que tal carnales, felíz inicio de semana.

Esta rola es de las que más me gustan, tien carácter, creo que los diversos elementos que la componen la convierten en una pieza genial, aparte de el toque que le imprime la personalidad de Billy Joel al cantar. Ese solo de trompeta le da a este ritmo de rock un toque especial. La letra es divina, nos explica que hay que ser aunténticos, que si todos siguen la línea, pues que la sigan, que las modas son pasajeras, que no importa lo que diga la gente porque nunca se les dará gusto, y que las cosas, por más novedosas y banales que sean, siempre están inspiradas en los conceptos que nunca se vana a acabar.

El track se llama: It's still Rock'n Roll to Me, y es uno de los éxitos más chidos de la carrera de Billy Joel, un músico Newyorquino que fue descubierto como el pianista de un bar y cuya genialidad no puede ser negada.

It's Still Rock And Roll To Me

What's the matter with the clothes I'm wearing?
"Can't you tell that your tie's too wide?"
Maybe I should buy some old tab collars?
"Welcome back to the age of jive.
Where have you been hidin' out lately, honey?
You can't dress trashy till you spend a lot of money."
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me

What's the matter with the car I'm driving?
"Can't you tell that it's out of style?"
Should I get a set of while wall tires?
"Are you gonna cruise the miracle mile?
Nowadays you can't be too sentimental
Your best bet's a true baby blue Continental."
Hot funk, cool punk, even if it's old junk
It's still rock and roll to me

Oh, it doesn't matter what they say in the papers
'Cause it's always been the same old scene.
There's a new band in town
But you can't get the sound from a story in a magazine...
Aimed at your average teen

How about a pair of pink sidewinders
And a bright orange pair of pants?
"You could really be a Beau Brummel baby
If you just give it half a chance.
Don't waste your money on a new set of speakers,
You get more mileage from a cheap pair of sneakers."
Next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me

What's the matter with the crowd I'm seeing?
"Don't you know that they're out of touch?"
Should I try to be a straight `A' student?
"If you are then you think too much.
Don't you know about the new fashion honey?
All you need are looks and a whole lotta money."
It's the next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me

Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me.
