Piano Lessons
Acabo de reencontrar este videoclip:
Quem me conhece irá achar-me suspeito a falar de Porcupine Tree mas eu não resisto. Piano lessons é uma música do magnífico álbum Stupid Dream do remoto ano de 1999, que transparece a genialidade e simplicidade de ideias que o mestre Steven Wilson tão bem traduz nas letras que escreve e nas músicas que compõem. Todo o videoclip em si é um excelente exemplo de como um vídeo de promoção de uma música ou de complemento a essa mesma música deve ser feito.
I remember piano lessons
The hours in freezing rooms
Cruel ears and tiny hands
Destroying timeless tunes
She said there's too much out there
Too much already said
You'd better give up hoping
You're better off in bed
You don't need much to speak of
No class, no wit, no soul
Forget you own agenda
Get ready to be sold
I feel now like Christine Keeler
Sleepwaking in the rain
I didn't mean to lose direction
I didn't want that kind of fame
(Take your hands off my land)
Credit me with some intelligence
(if not just credit me)
I come in value packs of ten
(in five varieties)
And even though I got it all now
My only stupid dream
I see you and me together
And how it should have been
I remember piano lessons
Now everything seems clear
You waiting under streetlights
For dreams to disappear
The hours in freezing rooms
Cruel ears and tiny hands
Destroying timeless tunes
She said there's too much out there
Too much already said
You'd better give up hoping
You're better off in bed
You don't need much to speak of
No class, no wit, no soul
Forget you own agenda
Get ready to be sold
I feel now like Christine Keeler
Sleepwaking in the rain
I didn't mean to lose direction
I didn't want that kind of fame
(Take your hands off my land)
Credit me with some intelligence
(if not just credit me)
I come in value packs of ten
(in five varieties)
And even though I got it all now
My only stupid dream
I see you and me together
And how it should have been
I remember piano lessons
Now everything seems clear
You waiting under streetlights
For dreams to disappear

Uma das bandas rock com um dos repertórios mais eclécticos e abrangentes de sempre, e sempre com muita substância..
por vezes, de uma complexidade e sentimento que fazem lembrar a música clássica.. que dizer do interlúdio tocante da música "The Start of Something Beautiful", de todo aquele sentimento nostálgico e irreverente nos 12 minutos de "Arriving Somewhere but Not Here", na complexidade do épico "Anesthetize" ou de "Sleep Together" onde chegam a tocar ao mesmo tempo mais de 7 ou 8 linhas musicais diferentes...
