Mi coche no es japonés

"Motor City" NEIL YOUNG, album "A Treasure" (2011)

My old car keeps breaking down

My new car ain't from Japan

There's already too many Datsuns

In this town.

Another thing that's bugging me

Is this commercial on TV

Says that Detroit

can't make good cars any more.

Motor City.

Who's driving my car?

Who's driving my car now?

Who?

My army jeep is still alive

Got locking hubs and four wheel drive

Ain't got no radio,

ain't got no mag wheels

Ain't got no digital clock

Ain't got no clock.

The paint job is lookin' blue

The white walls are missing too

But I guess until I get my car back

This will do.

Coches Antiguos

Que tendrán los coches antiguos. Mas bien que no tendrán. No tienen reloj digital, no tienen MP3, no tienen DVD, no tienen Airbag, no tienen chuminadas, pero que buenos eran los jodíos. Entre los menos antiguos mi preferido es el Mazda MX5 y entrel os clásicos mi predilezto es el Jeep "Wally" que empleaba el Ejército y Gary Grant utilizaba en una película para viajar por Washington con sus hijos.

Neil Young y su perro

Lo nuevo de Neil Young hecho por él mismo. Es fresco y le da una lección a esos músicos jovencitos que se gastan un pastón en videoclips, y no me refiero solo a los del Youtube o MTV, sino que aquí al lado también los hay sin ir tan lejos. La canción está dedicada al mecánico Johnathan Goodwin y se ve a Neil Young en su viejo Lincvolt destartalado. Incluso Neil lleva una camiseta raída. Detrás está su perro, e incluso se ve como en un momento Neil se preocupa por lo que ha podido ocurrirle y se pasa la mano hacia atrás por si éste ha saltado. Neil pasea en su Lincvolt por Wichita, la capital del Continental.

"Johnny Magic"
Johnny Magic had a way with metal Had a way with machines
One day in a garage far away He met destiny
In the form of a heavy metal Continental
She was born to run on a Proud Highway
Then the whole world started running out of money
People losing their jobs Right here in Wichita
Wichita The home of the heavy metal Continental
Where the Motor-Head Messiah was tuning the system in
She burst from the garage in a blaze of silence
Disappearing down Douglas at lightning speed
Before the big metal door came crashing down
She was born to run on a Proud Highway
Now she goes long range on domestic green fuel
100 miles per gallon is the Continental Rule
Out on the Kansas two-lane flats near Wichita
She was born to run on a Proud Highway
The Motor-Head Messiah went to Washington
To show them what he’d done
The senators and congressmen came down
In Washington
And they rode in the heavy metal Continental
