¿Como estan niños y niñas? El dia de hoy vamos a recomendarles un disco que los hará sentir una emoción muy placentera ( bueno, según mi experiencia asi fue). ¿Creo que todos han escuchado hablar de “La Guerra de los Mundos ( The war of the worlds) verdad? O por lo menos se dieron cuenta de la pelicula de Steven Spielberg que estan pasando en estas fechas (julio 2005). Pues bueno, quiero confesarles que en términos musicales siempre tuve ganas de encontrar algún disco que me produjera una sensación solo dada en la realidad ¿Que cuál es esa sensación? Ahh, pues nada más y nada menos que EL MIEDO.

Quisiera que ustedes compartieran, asi como yo, el miedo, la desilución, el pánico colectivo, la desaparición de toda esperanza a escuchar este musical basado en la obra de Orson Welles y creado por Jeff Wayne en 1976.
Por favor, consigan ese disco, solo puedo limitarme a dejarles fragmentos de la letra de la canción Spirit of Man y algunas imagenes que vienen dentro del disco.
PARSON: Listen, do you hear them drawing near in their search for the
sinners?/
Feeding on the power of our fear and the evil within us/
Incarnation of Satan’s creation of all that we dread/
When the demons arrive those alive would be better off dead!/
BETH: There must be something worth living for/
There must be something worth trying for/
Even some things worth dying for/
And if one man can stand tall/
There must be hope for us all/
Somewhere, somewhere, in the spirit of man/
PARSON: Once there was a time when I believed without hesitation/
That the power of love and truth could conquer all in the name of salvation/
Tell me what kind of weapon is love, when it comes to the fight/
And just how much protection is truth against all Satan’s might/
BETH: There must be …
People loved you and trusted you, came to you for help/
PARSON: Didn’t I warn them this would happen?
Be on guard, I said
For the Evil One never rests.
I said exorcise the devil./
But no, they wouldn’t listen.
The demons inside them grew and grew.
Until Satan gave his signal.
And destroyed the world we knew.

BETH: No, Nathaniel/
Oh no Nathaniel!/
No, Nathaniel, no/
There must be more to life/
There has to be a way/
That we can restore to life
The love we used to know/
Nathaniel, no/
There must be more to life/
There has to be a way/
That we can restore to life/
The light that we have lost/
PARSON: Now darkness has descended on our land and all your prayers cannot save us/
Like fools we’ve let the devil take command of the souls that God gave us/
To the altar of evil like lambs to the slaughter we’re led/
When the demons arrive, the survivors will envy the dead!/
BETH: There must be something worth living for
PARSON: No, there is nothing!
BETH: There must be something worth trying for
PARSON: I don’t believe it’s so
BETH: Even some things worth dying for/
If just one man could stand tall/
There would be some hope for us all/
Somewhere, somewhere in the spirit of man/
PARSON: Forget about goodness and mercy - they’re gone.
Didn’t I warn them…
Pray I said.
Destroy the devil, I said…
They wouldn’t listen.
I could have saved the world.
But now it’s too late.
Too late!!!
BETH: No, Nathaniel…
There must be …
PARSON: Dear God! A cylinder’s landed on the house! And we’re underneath it - in the pit!
JOURNALIST: The Martians spent the night making a new machine. It was a squat, metallic spider with huge articulated claws - but it, too, had a hood in which a Martian sat. I watched it pursuing some people across a field. It caught them nimbly and tossed them into a great metal basket upon its back.
PARSON: Beth! She’s dead! Buried under the rubble. Why?
Satan! Why did you take one of your own?
There is a curse on Mankind.
We may as well be resigned.
To let the devil, the devil take the spirit of man
JOURNALIST: As time passed in our dark and dusty prison, the Parson wrestled endlessly with his doubts. His outcries invited death for us both - and yet I pitied him.
Then, on the ninth day, we saw the Martians eating. Inside the hood of their new machine, they were draining the fresh, living blood of men and women and injecting it into their own veins.
PARSON: It’s a sign! I’ve been given a sign! They must be cast out and I have been chosen to do it. I must confront them now!
JOURNALIST: No, Parson, no!
PARSON: Those machines are just demons in another form! I shall destroy them with my prayers! I shall burn them with my Holy Cross! I shall -
JOURNALIST: The curious eye of a Martian appeared at the window-slit,
and a menacing claw explored the room. I dragged the Parson down to the coal cellar. I heard the Martian fumbling at the latch. In the darkness I could see the claw touching things, walls, coal, wood, - and then it touched my boot! I almost shouted! For a time it was still and then, with a click, it gripped something. The Parson! With slow, deliberate movements, his unconscious body was dragged away… and there was nothing I could do to prevent it.
