Paroles et traduction Manel - Banda de Rock

Banda de Rock

Què se n'ha fet d'aquella banda de rock?
Saps quina dic?
Els han posat aquest matí.
Creus que els faria gràcia saber
Que, amb tant de temps,
Des de tan lluny pensem en ells?
Què va passar-li a aquella banda de rock?
Potser una nit
Van fer un concert final molt trist?
O van mirar-se després d'un assaig
Lent i infernal
I ho van saber, i ho van notar?
Creus que hi ha dies que els ballen pel cap
Melodies rabioses per ser una cançó
I si ets a prop els sents xiular,
I gairebé res ha canviat,
Només que ara, ja no les fan?
Es trucarà aquella banda de rock?
Seran amics?
S'agradaran en els seus discs?
Creus que a vegades es treuen els acords
D'aquells grans hits
I els van cantant pel passadís?
Sospitarà aquella banda de rock
La força amb què nota a nota els cantàvem a crits?
Sabran que almenys per a tu i per a mi
Durant un temps van fer que tot
Fos una mica més divertit?
Què se n'ha fet d'aquella banda de rock?
Què ha transcendit?
Els han posat aquest matí.

Rock Band

What became of that rock band, honey?
You know which one I’m talking about, right?
They were on this morning.
Do you think they’d feel good to know
That after all this time,
From so far away, we think about them?
What happened to that rock band, my love?
Maybe one night,
They played a really sad final concert?
Or did they look at each other after a long and hard rehearsal,
Slow and torturous,
And sense it, and notice it?
Do you think there are days when melodies,
Furious enough to be turned into songs,
Bounce around in their heads?
And if you’re close by, you can almost hear them humming,
Like nothing has really changed?
Will that rock band ever get back together, honey?
Are they still friends?
Do they get satisfaction from listening to their old records?
Do you think sometimes they get out their old chords,
From those big hits
And sing them while they’re walking down the hall?
Does that rock band realize, honey,
The strength of the notes that we used to sing along to at the top of our lungs?
Do they know that at least for you and me
For a time, they made everything
Just a little more enjoyable?
What became of that rock band, dear?
What transcended?
They were on this morning.
