Ao contrário do maravilha que é a “2013” do Primal Scream, essa “2013” do Arctic Monkeys é bem qualquer-nota. São músicas diferentes, sem parentesco além do nome, mas o ano ganhou homenagens bem distintas em qualidade nesse caso.
Não à toa, a canção acabou no lado B de “Do I Wanna Know?”, o primeiro single tirado de “AM”, o disco mais recente do Arctic Monkeys.
A música não exala inspiração, nem vontade, mas, convenhamos, 2013 também não tá sendo lá um ano tão esplendoroso quanto faz crer a pérola criada pela banda de Bobby Gillespie…
Ouça (e cante junto com a letra, mais abaixo):
Well the times are so a’changing
Baby even when it’s live
You can press pause and rewind
You knew it had to go amazing
But is this what you had in mind?
Oh there’s nothing you can’t find
It’s two thousand and thirteen
All across the galaxy
It’s two thousand and thirteen
Yeah
On the back of her transmiter
There’s a little shiny fruit
And it’s coming after you
As for instagram and twitter
She got caught in both pursuits
It’s two thousand and thirteen
All across the galaxy
It’s two thousand and thirteen
Yeah
So baby take a walk with me
Past flying cars and time machines
There’s nothing that you won’t believe, no
It’s two thousand and thirteen
All across the galaxy
It’s two thousand and thirteen
All across the galaxy
