Álbum Too Low for Zero de Elton John - Canciones
Too Low for Zero
Reseña
El álbum Too Low for Zero, de 1983, es la obra que protagonizó el gran regreso de Elton John en la década de los 80. Por consiguiente, tras un período de menor éxito, en este trabajo el artista vuelve a colaborar a tiempo completo con su letrista de toda la vida, Bernie Taupin. De hecho, el resultado es uno de sus discos más aclamados y exitosos de esa década.
Por lo tanto, la producción del álbum es muy característica de los 80, con un uso prominente de sintetizadores y cajas de ritmos, pero sin perder la esencia del piano-rock. Como resultado, el disco suena moderno, enérgico y está repleto de éxitos.
Además, el álbum contiene dos de los mayores himnos de su carrera. "I'm Still Standing" es un desafiante y optimista canto a la supervivencia que se convirtió en un éxito masivo gracias a su icónico videoclip. Por otro lado, "I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues" es una preciosa balada con una inolvidable armónica de Stevie Wonder.
En resumen, 'Too Low for Zero' es un triunfo, un disco que no solo devolvió a Elton John a lo más alto, sino que también demostró que la magia de su colaboración con Taupin era inagotable.

[X]letra de Crystal
We're caught up in a web, you and I
Since Crystal came between us
The knots of friendship seem to be untied
And it hurts me most to cheat and that's no lie
She can swing us both forever
In the long run she's the one who must decide
And if she leaves me handle her with care
Don't hurt little Crystal
And if she calls you long distance just be there
Oh Crystal
The world is your oyster, you're a pearl
But he's a jewel and my friend
I'm sure that in the end, Crystal you'll be his little girl
Oh Crystal
You're stronger than me but I'm sure
That the fight would fall to no one
The cold hard truth is stronger than us all
And it breaks my heart to see us go this far
We're just captives in our separate cells
And without her there's no peace behind these bars - Kiss The Bride 4:22
- Whipping Boy 3:44
- Saint 5:20
- One More Arrow 3:47

[X]letra de Dreamboat
Steamboat waiting by the waterside
Sunlight shining on the mornin' tide
Got my ticket in my hand
Got some celebrating planned
Can't remember when I felt so fine
I've been waiting such a long, long time
Just to hear those engines hum
Look out dreamboat, here I come
And I say, dream on dreamboat, let my love light ride
Steam on steamboat to the other side
All aboard, make it fast
Thank the Lord, I'm coming home at last
If you love me like you did before
Be there waiting on that distant shore
When my steamboat comes inside
And then I know, we'll be alright
And I say, dream on dreamboat, let your love light ride
Stem on steamboat to the other side
Turn the crank, change the gear
Raise the flag and let's get out of here
Feels so good to know that soon I'll see
You've been saving all your love for me
Honey, if there's any doubt
Just be sure I don't find out
And I say, dream on dreamboat, let my love light ride
Steam on steamboat to the other side
Cast the line, check the fuse
Save some time, this ain't no pleasure cruise
Tell the Captain, not to take too long
Keep that big wheel turning fast and strong
Fires are burning down below
Come on steamboat, don't be slow
And I'm sayin' that, dream on dreamboat, let my love light ride
Steam on steamboat to the other side
Wind the springs, set the course
Pull some strings before I turn to force
Dream on dreamboat, let my love light ride
Steam on steamboat to the other side
Ring the bell, sound the horn
Move like Hell, I'm heading back where I was born
And I say, dream on dreamboat, let my love light ride
Steam on steamboat to the other side
All aboard and make it fast
Thank the Lord, I'm coming home at last
And I say, dream on dreamboat, let your love light ride
Steam on steamboat to the other side
Turn the crank, change the gear
Raise the flag and let's get out of here
Dream on dreamboat, let my love light ride
Steam on steamboat to the other side
Cast the line, check the fuse
Save some time, this ain't no pleasure cruise
You're my dreamboat, yes you are
I say, dream on dreamboat, let my love light ride
Steam on steamboat to the other side
Ring the bell, sound the horn
Move like Hell, I'm heading back where I was born, yeah
You're my dreamboat, yes you are
Dream on dreamboat, let my love light ride
