Tal día como hoy pero hace 24 años, los Manic Street Preachers lanzaban una de las canciones de la vida y, sin duda, uno de los mayores éxitos de su discografía. El 30 de noviembre de 1998 se publicaba el segundo sencillo de su icónico disco ‘This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours’ y para la ocasión eligieron el tema ‘The Everlasting’ que fue directo al puesto 11 en las listas del Reino Unido y al corazón de todos los fans de la banda de Gales y, para la ocasión, han querido recordarlo a sus seguidores a través de sus redes sociales. Memorable. Dale al play:
The gap that grows between our lives
The gap our parents never had
Stop those thoughts control your mind
Replace the things that you despise
Oh you’re old I hear you say
It doesn’t mean that I don’t care
I don’t believe in it anymore
Pathetic acts for a worthless cause
In the beginning when we were winning
When our smiles were genuine
In the beginning when we were winning
When our smiles were genuine
But now unforgiven the everlasting
Everlasting
The world is full of refugees
They’re just like you and just like me
But as people we have a choice
To end the void with all its force
So don’t forget or don’t pretend
It’s all the same now in the end
It was set in a different life
Destroys my days and haunts my nights?
In the beginning when we were winning
When our smiles were genuine
In the beginning when we were winning
When our smiles were genuine
But now unforgiving the everlasting
Everlasting
In the beginning when we were winning
When our smiles were genuine
In the beginning when we were winning
When our smiles were genuine
Now unforgiving, the everlasting
Everlasting
But now unforgiving, the everlasting
Everlasting
