Aniversário do Herbert

o que dizer num dia como hoje? hoje o Herbert faz 49 anos... é até difícil falar algo que saia do lugar comum....

bom, parabéns Herbert, divirta-se, comemore e celebre a vida a cada dia dela e hoje em especial...

só tenho a agradecer por no dia 04/05/1961 você ter nascido, um ser humano que tão bem traduziria todas as minhas angústias, alegrias, tristezas, enfim, a alma, em forma de letra e melodia....
também agradeço por você ainda estar por aqui, e continuar fazendo isso, brindo a isso também, ao seu nascimento e seus renascimentos....

vou colocar aqui uma letra que não é do Herbert, mas que sempre que ouço lembro dele, continue sempre cantando minha vida com suas palavras:

Killing Me Softly
(Norman Gimbel; Charles Fox)

Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
killing me softly,
With his song telling my whole life
With his words,
Killing me softly,
With his song

I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style,
And so I came to see him and listen for a while.
And there he was this young boy, stranger to my eyes,

Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with this song,
With his song, telling my whole life,
With his words,
Killing me softly with his song.

I felt all flushed with fever,
Embarrassed by the crowd,
I felt he found my letters then read each one out loud.
I prayed that he would finish,
But he just kept right on

Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly
With his song,
Tellin' my whole life
With his words,
Killing me softly, with his song
