Me revoila après une assez longue absence je dois dire...
Enchaînons sur Stop this Train, chanson plutôt calme et reposante qui au début de l'écoute attentive des paroles, tu ne comprends pas grand chose, ou il veut en venir et tout, que après c'est toujours la même chose !!
J'avais entendu dire qu'enfait cette chanson exprimait la "peur" que John aurait de vieillir, dépasser le cap des 3o ans mais pour lui ce serait la peur de voir ses parents partir (ce ne sont que des hypothèses et non des affirmations, je sais plus ou j'ai vu ça)
Et finalement après analyse des paroles et des sois disants "dires" de John tu comprends effectivement qu'il y'a 2 thèmes principaux:
■ L'angoisse de "vieillir"
■ La peur de perdre ses parents
I know the world is black and white
Try to keep an open mind
But I just can't sleep on this tonight
I wanna get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?
I don't want to see my parents go
One generation's length away
From fighting life out on my own
I wanna get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?
I'm only good at being young
So I play the numbers game
To find a way to say that life has just begun
Said "help me understand"
He said "turn sixty-eight
You renegotiate"
Don't for a minute change the place you're in
And don't think I couldn't ever understand
I tried my hand
John, honestly we'll never stop this train"
It'll feel like it should
And they're all still around
And you're still safe and sound
And you don't miss a thing
Till you cry when you're driving away in the dark
Singing
I wanna get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
Cause now I see I will never stop this train
