Neil Diamond - That Kind

Neil Diamond compone, con Carol Bayer Sager, está canción para su LP "September Morn" de 1979. Sin duda una reflexión sobre el mundo sombrío del espectáculo y su fuerte impacto en las generaciones jovenes, que llegan a ser destruidas. La letra está aquí abajo:

That Kind (1979)

She was only seventeen
And was every young boy's dream
The blue eyed beauty queen of the day
Broke some hearts, including mine
But everyone knew, she was just that kind

Seems like all her dreams were spent
On the boys that came and went
But the promises were all but left behind
She was good, and she was mine
But everyone knew, she was just that kind

Hey, they said
They're gonna take her to hollywood
Gonna make her like a movie star
Maybe put her in a picture show
Took her chance, she paid her dime
And maybe i loved her, 'cause she was that kind

She was gone by twenty one
When most lives had just begun
There was so much left undone along the way
She took her chance, she paid her dime
Oh, you gotta be strong, to be that kind

Hey, they said
"We gonna take you out to hollywood"
"We gonna make you like a movie star"
"We gonna put you in a picture show"
Wasted life, a waste of time
But I couldn't have loved her if she wasn't that kind
No, I couldn't have loved her if she wasn't that kind

Everybody knows somebody this song applies to... Sad but true! Wish I could have done something to change things and the way they played out. I still remember her and it still hurts...
