Pale


2 "bleekscheten" geplakt tegen een witte muur: links David Bowie en rechts William Burroughs

“A Whiter shade of pale”

2 coupletten:

“We skipped the light fandango
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick
But the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
As the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
And the waiter brought a tray

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale”

Procol Harum:een bizarre mix van Klassiek, pop en poezie. Een combinatie van Bach ( “air in G”) Beatles en Burroughs.

Bach’s Air werd ook “gebruikt” in “Everything's gonna be alright” van Sweetbox
