Adaptações de áudio a vídeo é algo sempre complicado. Nesse vídeo, apesar de algumas falhas, o resultado é bom. No caso, um clássico do Camel, com a banda original, em sua melhor formação.

TOMORROW BELONGS TO ME* (1972) JOHN KANDER

Sérgio Luiz Gallina

O filme "Cabaret" (1972), do americano Bob Fosse, trata da ascensão do nazismo (ramo germânico do fascismo) na Alemanha de 1931. O povo, esperançoso de que um pulso firme, nacionalista, militarista, resolveria a crise política e econômica, acabou levando ao poder Adolf Hitler. O resto dessa história já é do conhecimento de todos.

The sun on the meadow is summery warm

The stag in the forest runs free

But gather together to greet the storm

Tomorrow belongs to me

----

The branch of the linden is leafy and green

The Rhine gives its gold to the sea

But somewhere a glory awaits unseen

Tomorrow belongs to me

----

The babe in his cradle is closing his eyes

The blossom embraces the bee

But soon, says a whisper

Arise, arise

Tomorrow belongs to me...

HURRICANE (1975) BOB DYLAN  

Sérgio Luiz Gallina

Pistol shots ring out in the ballroom night

Enter Patty Valentine from the upper hall

She sees the bartender in a pool of blood

Cries out, "My God, they've killed them all!"

Here comes the story of the Hurricane

The man the authorities came to blame

For somethin' that he never done

Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been

The champion of the world

----

Three bodies lyin' there does Patty see

And another man named Bello, movin' around mysteriously

"I didn't do it," he says, and he throws up his hands

"I was only robbin' the register, I hope you understand.

I saw them leavin'," he says, and he stops

"One of us had better call up the cops"

And so Patty calls the cops

And they arrive on the scene with their red lights flashin'

In the hot New Jersey night

----

Meanwhile, far away in another part of town

Rubin Carter and a couple of friends are drivin' around

Number one contender for the middleweight crown

Had no idea what kinda shit was about to go down

When a cop pulled him over to the side of the road

Just like the time before and the time before that

In Paterson that's just the way things go

If you're black you might as well not show up on the street

'Less you wanna draw the heat

----

Alfred Bello had a partner and he had a rap for the cops

Him and Arthur Dexter Bradley were just out prowlin' around

He said, I saw two men runnin' out

They looked likemiddleweights

They jumped into a white car with out-of-state plates

And Miss Patty Valentine just nodded her head

Cop said: Wait a minute, boys, this one's not dead

So they took him to the infirmary

And though this man could hardly see

They told him that he could identify the guilty men

----

Four in the mornin' and they haul Rubin in

Take him to the hospital and they bring him upstairs

The wounded man looks up through his one dyin' eye

Says, "Wha'd you bring him in here for? He ain't the guy!"

Yes, here's the story of the Hurricane

The man the authorities came to blame

For somethin' that he never done

Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been

The champion of the world

----

Four months later, the ghettos are in flame

Rubin's in South America, fightin' for his name

While Arthur Dexter Bradley's still in the robbery game

And the cops are puttin' the screws to him

Lookin' for somebody to blame.

"Remember that murder that happened in a bar?"

"Remember you said you saw the getaway car?"

"You think you'd like to play ball with the law?"

"Think it might-a been that fighter that you saw runnin' that night?"

"Don't forget that you are white"

----

Arthur Dexter Bradley said:"I'm really not sure"

Cops said:"A poor boy like you could use a break

We got you for the motel job and we're talkin' to your friend Bello

Now you don't wanta have to go back to jail, be a nice fellow.

You'll be doin' society a favor

That sonofabitch is brave and gettin' braver.

We want to put his ass in stir

We want to pin this triple murder on him

He ain't no gentleman jim"

----

Rubin could take a man out with just one punch

But he never did like to talk about it all that much

It's my work, he'd say, and I do it for pay

And when it's over I'd just as soon go on my way

Up to some paradise

Where the trout streams flow and the air is nice

And ride a horse along a trail

But then they took him to the jail house

Where they try to turn a man into a mouse

----

All of Rubin's cards were marked in advance

The trial was a pig-circus, he never had a chance

The judge made Rubin's witnesses drunkards from the slums

To the white folks who watched he was a revolutionary bum

And to the black folks he was just a crazy nigger

No one doubted that he pulled the trigger

And though they could not produce the gun

The D.A. said he was the one who did the deed

And the all-white jury agreed

----

Rubin Carter was falsely tried

The crime was murder "one," guess who testified?

Bello and Bradley and they both baldly lied

And the newspapers, they all went along for the ride.

How can the life of such a man

Be in the palm of some fool's hand?

To see him obviously framed

Couldn't help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land

Where justice is a game

----

Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties

Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise

While Rubin sits like Buddha in a ten-foot cell

An innocent man in a living hell

That's the story of the Hurricane

But it won't be over till they clear his name

And give him back the time he's done.

Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been

The champion of the world

DIAMONDS AND RUST (1978) JOAN BAEZ

Sérgio Luiz Gallina

Well I'll be damned

Here comes your ghost again

But that's not unusual

It's just that the moon is full

And you happened to call

----

And here I sit

Hand on the telephone

Hearing a voice I'd known

A couple of light years ago

Heading straight for a fall

----

As I remember your eyes

Were bluer than Robin's eggs

My poetry was lousy you said

Where are you calling from?

A booth in the midwest

----

Ten years ago

I bought you some cufflinks

You brought me something

We both know what memories can bring

They bring diamonds and rust

----

Well you burst on the scene

Already a legend

The unwashed phenomenon

The original vagabond

You strayed into my arms

----

And there you stayed

Temporarily lost at sea

The Madonna was yours for free

Yes, the girl on the half-shell

Would keep you unharmed

----

Now I see you standing

With brown leaves falling around

And snow in your hair

Now you're smiling out the window

Of that crummy hotel

Over Washington Square

Our breath comes out white clouds

Mingles and hangs in the air

Speaking strictly for me

We both could have died then and there

----

Now you're telling me

You're not nostalgic

Then give me another word for it

You who are so good with words

And at keeping things vague

----

Because I need some of that vagueness now

It's all come back too clearly

Yes I loved you, dearly

And if you're offering me diamonds and rust

I've already paid

DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOU'RE GOING TO* (1975) DIANA ROSS

Sérgio Luiz Gallina

Do you know where you're going to?

Do you like the things that life is showing you?

Where are you going to, do you know?

Do you get what you're hoping for?

When you look behind you there's no open door

What are you hoping for, do you know?

----

Once we were standing still in time

Chasing the fantasies that filled our minds

And you knew how I loved you but my spirit was free

Laughing at the questions that you once asked of me

----

Do you know where you're going to?

Do you like the things that life is showing you?

Where are you going to, do you know?

----

Now looking back at all we planned

We let so many dreams just slip through our hands

Why must we wait so long before we see

How sad the answers to those questions can be?

----

Do you know where you're going to?

Do you like the things that life is showing you?

Where are you going to, do you know?

Do you get what you're hoping for?

When you look behind you there's no open door

OH ME, OH MY* (1971) LULU    

Sérgio Luiz Gallina

To make you laugh, I'd play a fool for you

Although the people turn and stare

I would give my everything to keep you, girl

It breaks my heart when you're not there

----

I'll stage a ballet on a tabletop

Command performance finger size

And although I ain't got no tune

My show ain't gonna flop

I'll find the music there in your eyes

----

Oh me oh my, I'm a fool for you baby

Oh me oh my, I am crazy baby

Oh me oh my, I'm a fool for you baby

Come on let your love light shine on me

----

And we'll blow a genie from a cigarette

And then we'll take a magic carpet ride

And we'll tell our smoky friends hey don't you forget

'Cause you've got to keep us side by side

----

Oh me oh my, I'm a fool for you baby

Oh me oh my, I am crazy baby

Oh me oh my, I'm a fool for you baby

Come on let your love light shine on me

----

Oh me oh my, I'm a fool for you baby

Oh me oh my, I am crazy baby

Oh me oh my, I'm a fool for you baby

Come on let your love light shine on me

You've done it all

Eroded metal, what a bore

Oh, blue eyes, blue eyes

How come you tell so many lies

----

Oh, oh, come up and see me

Make me smile

I'll do what you want

Run on wild

----

There's nothing left

I've gone and run away

Maybe you'll tarry for a while

It's just a test

A game for us to play

Win or lose it's hard to smile

Resist, resist

It's from yourself you have to hide

----

Oh, oh, come up and see me

Make me smile

I'll do what you want

Run on wild

LET'S PRETEND (1972) RASPBERRIES 

Sérgio Luiz Gallina

I can't sleep nights

Wishing you were here beside me

Can't help feeling

That's way it ought to be

You know we could run (run, run) away

And I couldn't bear to hear

The things they'd say

Oh, no

----

Baby let's pretend

That tonight could live forever

If we close our eyes

And believe it might come true

----

Baby let's pretend

We could always be together

But for now just let me

Spend the night with you

----

Somehow, someday

Things are gonna be so different

Don't cry, some way

I promise it will be all right

So now that we're all alone

I couldn't bear

To ever take you home

Oh, no

----

Baby let's pretend

That tonight could live forever

If we close our eyes

And believe it might come true

----

Baby let's pretend

We could always live together

But for now just let me

Spend the night with you

----

So take me now

My love can't wait

We're almost there now darlin'

Darlin' hold me, hold me

Hold me

Baby let's pretend...

SHOW ME THE WAY (1975) PETER FRAMPTON

Sérgio Luiz Gallina

I wonder how you're feeling

There's ringing in my ears

And no one to relate to 'cept the sea

----

Who can I believe in?

I'm kneeling on the floor

There has to be a force

Who do I phone?

----

The stars are out and shining

But all I really want to know

----

Oh won't you show me the way, everyday

I want you to show me the way

----

Well, I can see no reason

You're living on your nerves

When someone drops a cup and I submerge

----

I'm swimming in a circle

I feel I'm going down

There has to be a fool to play my part

----

Someone thought of healing

But all I really want to know

----

Oh won't you show me the way, everyday

I want you to show me the way

I want you day after day

----

I wonder if I'm dreaming

I feel so unashamed

I can't believe this is happening to me

----

I watch you when you're sleeping

And then I want to take your love

----

Oh won't you show me the way, everyday

I want you to show me the way, one more time

----

I want you day after day

I want you day after day

----

I want you to show me the way, everyday

I want you to show me the way, night and day

I want you day after day

BABY COME BACK (1977) PLAYER

Sérgio Luiz Gallina

Spending all my nights

All my money going out on the town

Doing anything just to get you off of my mind

But when the morning comes

I'm right back where I started again

Trying to forget you is just a waste of time

----

Baby come back, any kind of fool could see

There was something in everything about you

Baby come back, you can blame it all on me

I was wrong, and I just can't live without you

----

All day long, wearing a mask of false bravado

Trying to keep up the smile that hides a tear

But as the sun goes down, I get that empty feeling again

How I wish to God that you were here

----

Baby come back, any kind of fool could see

There was something in everything about you

Baby come back, you can blame it all on me

I was wrong, and I just can't live without you

----

Now that I put it all together

Give me the chance to make you see

Have you used up all the love in your heart

Nothing left for me, ain't there nothing left for me

----

Baby come back, any kind of fool could see

There was something in everything about you

Baby come back, listen, you can blame it all on me

I was wrong, and I just can't live without you
