Ara Malikian Symphonic. Life on Mars (David Bowie Cover)

Hoy en un examen oral, uno de los alumnos (al borde del desahucio educativo, todo sea dicho) al preguntarle por sus actividades de tiempo libre, me ha contado que le interesaba mucho la forma en la que se medían los agujeros negros y tenía muy claro que había vida en otros planetas. Me ha enseñado que la masa de los agujeros se mide en soles. 

Según hablaba me estaba acordando de esta canción. Aquí va esta versión de Ara Malikian, que me encanta. Voy a ver si termino de googlear el resto de cosas que me ha contado.






It's a God-awful small affair
To the girl with the mousy hair
But her mummy is yelling no
And her daddy has told her to go
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now she walks through her sunken dream
To the seat with the clearest view
And she's hooked to the silver screen
But the film is a saddening bore
For she's lived it ten times or more
She could spit in the eyes of fools
As they ask her to focus on
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh man, look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show
Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man, wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
Is there life on Mars?
It's on America's tortured brow
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Now the workers have struck for fame
'Cause Lennon's on sale again
See the mice in their million hordes
From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
To my mother, my dog, and clowns
But the film is a saddening bore
'Cause I wrote it ten times or more
It's about to be writ again
As I ask you to focus on
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh man, look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show
Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man, wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
Is there life on Mars?
