Les coulisses
Le slow original de 1989, une histoire de rupture, était inspiré de "Angie" des Stones: Sa revisite s'inspire de l'atmosphère et de la structure de "Confortably numb" de Pink floyd.
Après une intro et un premier couplet en ballade folk, la chanson bascule dans le rock pur appuyée par des accents symphoniques et se termine dans une ambiance quasi live.
Et comme dans "Comfortably numb" , deux solos de guitares jaillissent après chaque refrain . Le premier sur la boucle d'accords des couplets, le deuxième sur celle du refrain
Paroles
Angie, I think of you every day
You're beside me and you'll stay
Forever my Angie
Angie, like Jagger's voice used to say
Your name resounds in my own even if my heart is down
Even if forever you're gone, even if I stay alone,
You're the best girl that I've known
You've never told me the reason,
You've never told me why you're gone
I ask myself if I was wrong
Oh, tell me, if you listen to me
If you're gone with someone better then me or simply because of me
Angie, at least tell me that
You owe it to me
Guitar solo 1
Angie, do you think of me someday?
Do you remember the days, when we were you and me Angie?
Angie, I just want you to remember
I can pardon you to be gone but not to have disowned me, disowned our love
Please remember it, remember me
You've never told me the reason, you've never told me why you're gone
I ask myself if I was wrong
Oh, tell me, if you listen to me
If you're gone with someone better then me or simply because of me
Angie, at least tell me that
You owe it to me
Guitar solo 2
If you were lying, it’s so low, while I’m going solo
I gave enough of my time, wasting thoughts of those times
Whether on my side I did anything wrong or bad
I can feel some part of me crying for more but my mind
Has finally found the light , I came to realise
Looking through my own eyes
That it is not so bad
I have no more ties cause I’m free now
