LA CANCIÓN DEL DÍA: The Perfect Drug – Nine Inch Nails

Un temazo de 1997 que me sigue pareciendo fascinante. El vídeo es simplemente de otro mundo.

The perfect drug

I got my head, but my head is unraveling
Cant keep control, cant keep track of where its traveling
I got my heart but my heart is no good
And youre the only one thats understood
I come along but I dont know where youre taking me
I shouldnt go but youre reaching back and shaking me
Turn off the sun, pull the stars from the sky
The more I give to you, the more I die

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you

You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug

You make me hard, when Im all soft inside
I see the truth, when Im all stupid eyed
The arrow goes straight through my heart
Without you everything just falls apart

My blood wants to say hello to you
My feelings want to get inside of you
My soul is so afraid to realize
Every little word is a lack of me

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you

You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
(whispering)
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the drug, the perfect drug

Take me, with you
Take me, with you
Take me, with you
(continues in backround)
Without you, without you everything falls apart
Without you, its not as much fun to pick up the pieces
Without you, without you everything falls apart
Without you, its not as much fun to pick up the pieces
Its not as much fun to pick up the pieces
Its not as much fun to pick up the pieces
Without you, without you everything falls apart
Without you, its not as much fun to pick up the pieces

TRENT REZNOR es ingeniero informático y el único mienbro real de Nine Inch Nails, un proyecto que oscila entre el techno, el rock industrial, lo oscuro y todo que se le ponga por delante.

Aparte de NIN, Reznor ha sido productor de grupos como Marilyn Manson (de quien fue descubridor y amigo) o Helmet, ha colaborado con David Bowie y ha creado música para videojuegos como Quake. También ha colaborado en la música para películas como The Crow, Lost Highway o Asesinos natos.

Sus discos, como la canción de arriba, están llenos de capas y texturas sonoras superpuestas, con constantes cambios de ritmo y sonido dentro de la misma canción, llegando a pasar del susurtto al grito en escasos segundos.

Hasta el gran Johnny Cash una versión de un tema suyo: Hurt
