I wanna be your toy...

Uno de los grandes nombres de la historia del rock, fue sin lugar a dudas Marc Bolan, líder de T. Rex., con sus botas de plataforma, ropas de leopardo, chaquetas brillantes, sombreros de copa y maquillaje crearon una corriente marcada por la ambigüedad sexual y la teatralidad, llamada el glam rock. Una de sus canciones más conocidas alla por la década de los 70 y que comparto esta vez forma parte esencial del manga homónimo, obra de Naoki Urasawa (autor altamente recomendado *_*) aunque hay muchos grupos que la han adaptado, entre ellos Placebo o X Japan; también hay gente, por ahora anónima, que ha dado al mundo un buen cover de este clásico ^^



Canción: "20th Century Boy" (1973)
Intérprete: T. Rex

Oow
Friends say it's fine, friends say it's good
Ev'rybody says it's just like rock'n'roll
I move like a cat, charge like a ram
Sting like a bee, babe I wanna be your man
Well it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah
I'm your boy, your 20th century toy

Friends say it's fine, my friends say it's good
Ev'rybody says it's just like rock'n'roll
Fly like a plane, drive like a car
Ball like a hen, babe I wanna be your man - oh
Well it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah
I'm your toy, your 20th century boy

20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy

Friends say it's fine, friends say it's good
Ev'rybody says it's just like rock'n'roll
Move like a cat, charge like a ram
Sting like I feel, babe I wanna be your man
Well it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah
I'm your toy, your 20th century boy

20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your toy
20th century boy, I wanna be your toy
