Olá pessoal!
Infelizmente poucos no Brasil conhecem o bluesman americano Keb' Mo'. Keb' Mo' é o apelido do cantor e guitarrista Kevin Moore que escreve músicas super legais com temas bem atuais. Suas canções parecem mais crônicas do dia-a-dia. Neste post eu peguei a letra de sua canção Suitcase e a transformei num diálogo entre ele e um amigo. Então todas as falas dele é da letra da música com pequenas alterações para fazer mais sentido no diálogo. Leia e ouça a música ou ouça música e depois leia. Vou colocar um link abaixo caso queira ver a tradução do diálogo.

Hello
guys! Unfortunetely, very few people in Brazil know the American
bluesman Keb 'Mo'. Keb 'Mo' is the nickname of singer and guitarist
Kevin Moore whose lyrics deals with very current themes of our day to
day lives. For this blog post I picked the lyrics of his song Suitcase
and turned it into a dialogue between him and a friend. All of his
turns in the dialogue are from the lyrics of the song with minor
changes to make more sense in the context. Read and listen to the
song or listen to music, then read...Your call!
George | Hello Kevin! What is this suitcase for? Are you travelling? |
Kevin |
No!
Actually I'm not. But I've
got this
suitcase and...
I
take it everywhere I go.
|
George |
So
if you are not travelling what is this bag for then?
|
Kevin |
It's
just a big old bag of trouble.
|
George |
What
do you mean?
|
Kevin |
Simple!
Trouble is all I know.
|
George |
C'mon
Keb! You seem to be very upset. Tell me what happened.
|
Kevin |
Ok.
Sit down then. I'll tell you everything. So, I met a girl, fell in
love and our love was true...
|
George |
Oh!
Now it makes sense...
|
Kevin |
Whoa,
our love was true...
|
George |
Let
me guess...She was married!?
|
Kevin |
Well...
no... I found out, she had a big old suitcase too.
|
George |
So
what did you do?
|
Kevin |
So
we put our bags together, made a home for two.
|
George |
I
think I can see where this is going.
|
Kevin |
Then
along came the children, gave 'em all a little suitcase too.
|
George |
What
happened then Keb? Tell me all about it. Put it out of your chest.
It will make you feel better.
|
Kevin |
Ok,
so listen... the house got too small, the bags got too big. We
were holdin' on to everything, whatever said or did. When I
complained about the salt, in her black eyed peas. Then she put
her hand on her hip and she told me to leave.
|
George |
Owa!
And that's what you did, right?
|
Kevin |
Yes! I take my suitcase and get on out that door...
And she told me: “You're gonna hear from my lawyer, I can't take it no
more.”
|
George |
But
you didn't do anything?
|
Kevin |
I
did, it was rally embarrassing... I
had to get down on my knees, beg her to let me stay.
|
George |
What?
|
Kevin |
Yes!
You heard it right. I had to get down on my knees and beg her to
let me stay. I said: “Baby we got a whole lot of baggage, Let's
call somebody and have 'em haul it away.”
|
George |
And
now keb?
|
Kevin |
She
didn't say anything yet.
|
George |
Ok
Keb...let's go somewhere and drink something. But don't worry my
friend. Everything will turn out right. Just wait and you'll see.
