A Candy colored clown

In Dreams - Roy OrbisonAcuff Rose and Opryland Music (BMI)Copyright 1963 Monument Record Corp. A candy colored clown they call the sandman/Tiptoes to my room everynight/Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper/Go to sleep, everything is alright/I close my eyes then I drift away/Into the magic night I softly say/A silent prayer like dreamers do/Then I fall asleep to dream/My dreams of you/ In dreams I walk with you/In dreams I talk with you/In dreams you're mine/All of the time with you/Ever in dreams, in dreams/ But just before the dawn/I awake and find you're gone/I can't help it, I can't help it if I cry/I remember that you said goodbye/It's too bad that all these things/Can only happen in my dreams/Only in dreams/In beautiful dreams.

Peter Murphy - Cuts You Up

"¿A poco ese güey sabe quién es Peter Murphy?", me preguntó sorprendido mi amigo Beto, el Reno, luego de que acompañé a Pepé, el caballo, a comprar "cintas", como el les llamaba, allá en el tianguis de Balderas. Sabía un poco -lo suficiente-, por lo que le aconsejé que mejor comprara el recopilado de hits del cantautor inglés, ex líder de Bauhaus. Y al menos ésta, del álbum 'Deep', de 1990, sí la conocía.
"Those were the nineties, men!"
