Podemos encontrar sobre los escenarios a Chrissie Hynde (elemento constante) y sus chicos (estos han ido variando con el tiempo) desde 1978. Y es que The Pretenders (junto con Texas) es de esos grupos que llevan toda una vida dando guerra y música, y de los que conoces algún tema: Brass in Pocket, I’ll Stand by You, Don’t get me wrong, … Y aún así tienen fuerzas para sacar disco nuevo: Break Up The Concrete. No saldrá a la venta hasta septiembre, sin embargo, podremos descargar todas sus canciones de forma gratuita desde su página web. Cada semana irán colgando una. Esta semana ya podemos disfrutar de Boots of Chinese Plastic. ¿Está la industria cambiando? Si los grandes dinosaurios se mueven, puede que estemos a las puertas de una evolución.
Letra:
I play a good game,
But not good as you
I can be a little cold, but you can be so cruel
I’m not made of brick, I’m not made of stone
But I had you fooled enough
To take me on
If love was a war, it’s you who has won
While I was confessing it, you held your tongue
Now the damage is done…[estribillo]
Well there’s blood in these veins
And I cry when in pain
I’m only human on the inside
And if looks can deceive
Make it hard to believe
I’m only human on the insideI thought you’d come through,
I thought you’d come clean
You were the best thing I should never have seen
But you go to extremes, you push me too far
Then you keep going ‘til you break my heart
Yeah, you break my heart
See I bleed and I bruise, oh, but what’s it to you
I’m only human on the inside
And if looks could deceive,
Make it hard to believe
I’m only human on the inside
I crash and I burn, maybe some day you’ll learn
I’m only human on the inside
I stumble and fall, baby, under it all
I’m only human on the insideAnd the damage is done…
[estribillo]
I crash and I burn, maybe some day you’ll learn
I stumble and fall, baby, I do it all
I’m only human on the inside
