Tottenham: a "hometown" de Adele

Quando li sobre os protestos, onda de violência e incêndios que estão rolando em Tottenham, a primeira coisa que lembrei foi que é o bairro onde Adele nasceu e que foi pra ele que ela fez uma de suas músicas mais lindas, "Hometown Glory", do seu primeiro disco, 19.

Hometown Glory

I’ve been walking in the same way as I did

Missing out the cracks in the pavement

And tutting my heel and strutting my feet

“Is there anything I can do for you dear? Is there anyone I can call?”

“No and thank you, please Madam. I ain’t lost, just wandering”

Round my hometown

Memories are fresh

Round my hometown

Ooh the people I’ve met

Are the wonders of my world

Are the wonders of my world

Are the wonders of this world

Are the wonders of my world

I like it in the city when the air is so thick and opaque

I love to see everybody in short skirts, shorts and shades

I like it in the city when two worlds collide

You get the people and the government

Everybody taking different sides

Shows that we ain’t gonna stand shit

Shows that we are united

Shows that we ain’t gonna take it

Shows that we ain’t gonna stand shit

Shows that we are united

Round my hometown

Memories are fresh

Round my hometown

Ooh the people I’ve met

Are the wonders of my world (4x)
