“When the sun goes down”, los Arctic Monkeys son el 47º #antilunes.

Whatever_People_Say_I_Am,_That's_What_I'm_NotCon la de hoy, van 47 #antilunes. Esa ocurrencia en forma de canciones para vencer a los lunes sugeridas desde Los Mundos de Josete. Resulta paradójico, que con lo que los Arctic Monkeys aún no hubieran comparecido ante nuestra audiencia, algo que no es normal con lo que nos gustan Alex Turner y los suyos. Como los de Sheffield aún no tienen disco nuevo, vamos a tomar prestado un clásico de su discografía: “When de Sun Goes Down”.
Qué decir de este temazo. Formó parte de aquella maravilla de disco que fue Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, su debut, su fantástica irrupción en el panorama musical internacional. Corría el año 2006 y recuerdo perfectamente la revolución que supuso aquel primer LP. La canción que nos ocupa fue compuesta por Alex Turner. La canción narra la vida de una mujer de mala reputación y de cómo se le maltrata por la sociedad y el papel de un señor de buena reputación en todo ello.


Este es, como siempre hacemos, el enlace a la canción en Spotify:


A continuación dejo la letra de la canción, como hacemos siempre. Aunque reconozco la dificultad para seguir la letra a la primera con la ardua pronunciación del propio Álex Turner en esta canción:
So who's that girl there?
I wonder what went wrong
So that she had to roam the streets
She don't do major credit cards
I doubt she does receipts
It's all not quite legitimate
And what a scummy man
Just give him half a chance
I bet he'll rob you if he can
Can see it in his eyes, yeah
That he's got a driving ban
Amongst some other offences

And I've seen him with girls of the night
He told Roxanne to put on her red light
They're all infected but he'll be alright
'Cause he's a scumbag, don't you know
I said he's a scumbag, don't you know!

Although you're trying not to listen
I bet your eyes are staring at the ground
She makes a subtle proposition
I'm sorry love I'll have to turn you down

And oh he must be up to something
Want half a chance to show he's more than likely
I've got a feeling in my stomach
I start to wonder what his story might be
What his story might be

They said it changes when the sun goes down
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
Around here
Around, here

And look here comes a ford mondeo
Isn't he mister inconspicuous
And he don't have to say 'owt
She's in the stance ready to get picked up

And she's delighted when she sees him
Pulling in and giving her the eye
Because she must be fucking freezing
Scantily clad beneath the clear night sky
And don't stop in the winter no and

They said it changes when the sun goes down
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
Around here

They said it changes when the sun goes down
Over the river going out of town
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
Around here
Around here

And what a scummy man
Just give him half a chance
I bet he'll rob you if he can
Can see it in his eyes that he's got a nasty plan
I hope you're not involved at all
