You never can tell

En un recital de Bruce Springsteen, en Leipzig, Alemania, alguien del público le tiró un cartel que tenía escrito el nombre de una canción que quería que interpretaran. Se trataba de la canción "You never can tell" de Chuck Berry, muy recordada por una escena de la película "Pulp Fiction" (1994) de Quentin Tarantino, donde John Travolta y Uma Thurman hacen un peculiar baile. Lo anecdótico es que esta canción no forma parte del repertorio de Bruce Springsteen, por lo tanto, entre todos los músicos que al principio se muestran sorprendidos, comienzan a "sacar" el tema medio de oído. El resultado demuestra la calidad de músicos que acompaña a este fenómeno, logrando una interpretación maravillosa.
Que disfruten!

Fragmento de la película Pulp Fiction con la música original de Chuck Berry


Versión: Bruce Springsteen (EEUU) 7 de Julio de 2013 en Leipzig, Alemania


Letra:

It was a teenage wedding 
And the old folks wished them well
You could see that Pierre 
Did truly love the mademoiselle
And now the young monsieur and madam 
Have rung the chapel bell

C'est la vie say the old folks, 
It goes to show you never can tell

They furnished off an apartment 
With a two-room Roebuck sale
The coolerator was crammed 
With tv dinners and ginger ale
And when Pierre found work, 
The little money comin` worked out well
C'est la vie say the old folks 
It goes to show you never can tell

They had a hi-fi phono, 
Boy, did they let it blast
Seven hundred little records, 
All blues, rock, rhythm, and jazz
But when the sun went down, 
The rapid tempo of the music fell
C'est la vie say the old folks, 
It goes to show you never can tell

They bought a souped-up jitney, 
It was a cherry red 53
And drove it down to new orleans 
To celebrate their anniversary
It was there where Pierre was wedded 
To the lovely mademoiselle
C'est la vie say the old folks, 
It goes to show you never can tell

They had a teenage wedding 
And the old folks wished them well
You could see that Pierre 
Did truly love the mademoiselle
And now the young monsieur and madam 
Have rung the chapel bell
C'est la vie say the old folks, 
It goes to show you never can tell
