Un homenaje a Freddie Mercury en el 60 aniversario de su nacimiento: una canción muy especial para nosotros

"Innuendo" es en muchos sentidos un disco de despedida. Y esta canción de un futuro plácido y de evocaciones, pero con ese presentimiento latente que quien lo describe nunca podrá alcanzarlo siempre me impactó.

De vez en cuando vuelvo a la canción y, aunque a veces siento que se han perdido las referencias por las cuales la "adopté", veo que simplemente fueron reemplazadas por otras.

¡Salud, Freddie!

These are the days of our lives

Sometimes I get to feelin
I was back in the old days - long ago
When we were kids when we were young
Thing seemed so perfect - you know
The days were endless we were crazy we were young
The sun was always shinin - we just lived for fun
Sometimes it seems like lately - I just dont know
The rest of my lifes been just a show

Those were the days of our lives
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now but one thing is true
When I look and I find I still love you

You cant turn back the clock you cant turn back the tide
Aint that a shame
Id like to go back one time on a roller coaster ride
When life was just a game

No use in sitting and thinkin on what you did
When you can lay back and enjoy it through your kids
Sometimes it seems like lately - I just dont know
Better sit back and go with the flow

Cos these are the days of our lives
Theyve flown in the swiftness of time
These days are all gone now but some things remain
When I look and I find no change

Those were the days of our lives - yeah
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now but one things still true
When I look and I find
I still love you

I still love you
