Woke up this morning

Fue un compañero de trabajo que me comentó hará un par de años que estaba viendo una serie en el PC que le tenía enganchado. Los Soprano. Es ese momento no me dijo nada y lo pasé por alto. Por algún motivo que no sé explicar, sobre mayo o junio de este año decidí descargar el episodio piloto de la serie y lo vi, en dos ratos, y aunque no me impresionó demasiado, e incluso me aburrió un poco, decidí darle una segunda oportunidad y ver el segundo episodio.

A partir de ahí fui un adicto, y tras comenzar a bajar episodios, fundí las tres primeras temporadas antes de irme de vacaciones. Y a la vuelta, las otras 3... dejando la segunda parte de la sexta temporada para cuando la emitieran en España. Y ahora que la están emitiendo empecé a bajar los nuevos episodios. Hoy ya tengo para ver el primero, y ya estoy nervioso.

Woke up this morning 

La canción es del grupo Alabama 3, del disco Exile on Coldharbour Lane (1997), pero se hizo famosa por ser la canción de entrada de la serie Los Soprano. Y desde que la escuché por primera (bueno, quizás la segunda) vez no me la he podido quitar de la cabeza.

Nada más por hoy, voy a por el episodio. 

You woke up this morning
Got yourself a gun,
Mama always said you'd be
The Chosen One.

She said: You're one in a million
You've got to burn to shine,
But you were born under a bad sign,
With a blue moon in your eyes.

You woke up this morning
All the love has gone,
Your Papa never told you
About right and wrong.

But you're looking good, baby,
I believe you're feeling fine, (shame about it),
Born under a bad sign
With a blue moon in your eyes.

You woke up this morning
The world turned upside down,
Thing's ain't been the same
Since the Blues walked into town.

But you're one in a million
You've got that shotgun shine.
Born under a bad sign,
With a blue moon in your eyes.

When you woke up this morning everything you had was
gone. By half past ten your head was going ding-dong.
Ringing like a bell from your head down to your toes,
like a voice telling you there was something you should
know. Last night you were flying but today you're so low
- ain't it times like these that make you wonder if
you'll ever know the meaning of things as they appear to
the others; wives, mothers, fathers, sisters and
brothers. Don't you wish you didn't function, wish you
didn't think beyond the next paycheck and the next little
drink' Well you do so make up your mind to go on, 'cos
when you woke up this morning everything you had was gone.

When you woke up this morning,
When you woke up this morning,
When you woke up this morning,
Mama said you'd be the Chosen One.

When you woke up this morning,
When you woke up this morning,
When you woke up this morning,
You got yourself a gun
