Pra finalizar a semana, Blind Melon com Soul One, uma tristíssima música de amor que me faz lembrar o álbum III do Led Zeppelin (album que foi mais, digamos, "folk" do que os dois anteriores).

No Rain
O Blind Melon teve início em 1989, mas ao contrário de outras bandas de rock alternativo do início da década de 90, não acompanhou a tendência iniciada com Nirvana, Sound Garden, Pearl Jam, etc, e sim foi buscar suas influências no rock sulista estadunidense (rock, country e blues, só lembrar do The Band), no rock clássico do Led Zeppelin e Greatful Dead, e um pé também no rock psicodélico. Só que uma tragédia interrompeu precocemente a carreira da promissora banda: o vocalista morreu de overdose de cocaína num tour em 1995, o que acabou com a banda com apenas dois álbuns lançados (um terceiro foi lançado após a morte do vocalista em 1996, com músicas que já haviam sido gravadas pelo vocalista de maneira "crua"). Eles vieram a se juntar novamente em 2006 com um novo vocalista, lançaram um disco em 2008, mas eu nunca ouvi. A música No Rain faz parte do álbum de estréia de 1992, chamado Blind Melon.
Ooooo-oo-oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo-oo
All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
I like watching the puddles gather rain
And all I can do is just pour some tea for two
And speak my point of view
But it's not sane, it's not sane
I just want someone to say to me no, oh, oh, oh
I'll always be there when you wake, yea-ah
You know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today
So stay with me and I'll have it made
And I don't understand why I sleep all day
And I start to complain that there's no rain
And all I can do is read a book to stay awake
And it rips my life away, but it's a great escape
Escape......escape......escape......
All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
You don't like my point of view
You think that I'm insane
It's not sane, It's not sane
I just want someone to say to me no, oh, oh, oh
I'll always be there when you wake, yea-ah
You know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today
So stay with me and I'll have it made
And I'll have it made
And I'll have it made, oh
Lord no no
You know I'm really gonna, really gonna have it made
You know I'll have it made
Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh, ahhh
Ooooo-oo-oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo-oo
All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
I like watching the puddles gather rain
And all I can do is just pour some tea for two
And speak my point of view
But it's not sane, it's not sane
I just want someone to say to me no, oh, oh, oh
I'll always be there when you wake, yea-ah
You know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today
So stay with me and I'll have it made
And I don't understand why I sleep all day
And I start to complain that there's no rain
And all I can do is read a book to stay awake
And it rips my life away, but it's a great escape
Escape......escape......escape......
