El emblemático cantautor inglés estrena el segundo adelanto del famoso disco Tea for the Tillerman reinterpretado 50 años después
Yusuf / Cat Stevens – On The Road To Find Out (Video Oficial 2020)
Cat Stevens aka Yusuf anunció hace meses que coincidiendo con el 50 aniversario de su emblemático y exitoso disco Tea for the Tillerman, lo regrabaría completo, reimaginando cada una de las piezas 50 años después.
Tras presentar el fantástico video animado de la versión actualizada de «Where Do The Children Play?«, ahora libera una reinterepretación en clave bluesera de «On the Road to Find Out«.
La canción es acompañada de un video dirigido por Kimberly Stuckwisch y Melora Donoghue of Invisible Inc y actuado por Viet Dang, el cual es una alegoría del viaje de autodescubrimiento de la humanidad y los eventos históricos, el arte y la música que han influido en la vida y la cultura.
La producción de «On The Road To Find Out» utilizó luz totalmente natural, sin generadores ni electricidad, y los elementos de la roca se donaron para reciclarlos para mantener un espíritu ecológico durante la filmación.
Letra:
Well, I left my happy home to see what I could find out
I left my folk and friends with the aim to clear my mind out
Well, I hit the rowdy road and many kinds I met there
Many stories told me of the way to get there
Well on and on I go, the seconds tick the time out
There’s so much left to know and I’m on the road to find out
Well, in the end I’ll know, but on the way I wonder
Through descending snow, and through the frost and thunder
I listen to the wind come howl, telling me I have to hurry
I listen to the robin’s song saying not to worry
So on and on I go, the seconds tick the time out
There’s so much left to know, and I’m on the road to find out
Ooooh oooooh
Ooooh oooooh
And I found myself alone,
Hoping that someone would miss me
Thinking about my home,
And the last woman to kiss me
Sometimes you have to moan
When nothing seems to suit you
But nevertheless you know
You’re locked towards the future
So, on and on I go
The seconds tick the time out
There’s so much left to know
And I’m on the road to find out
Then I found my head one day when I wasn’t even trying ooooh oooooh
Here I have to say, ‘cause there is no use in lying ooooh oooooh
Well the answer lies within, so why not take a look now?
Kick out the devil’s sin, pick up, pick up a good book now
Yes the answer lies within, so why not take a look now?
Kick out the devil’s sin and pick up, pick up a good book now
Yes the answer lies within, why not take a look now?
Kick out the devil’s sin, pick up, pick up a good book now!
Ooooh oooooh
Ooooh oooooh
