Volviendo al tema, "Is this the world we created...?" es una canción muy poco típica de Queen porque es lenta, ni siquiera llega a ser una balada porque tiene incluso menos "movimiento", una melodía en la que sólo se cuenta con la indescriptible voz de Freddie Mercury y la guitarra de Brian May. Parece poco, aunque se cuente con un cantante y un guitarrista así, pero a veces las cosas simples son las más bellas y esta canción lo es. Es una preciosidad que se te queda en los oídos igual que la miel en los labios, dejándote un sabor dulce pese a la dureza de su contenido. Es tan buena que, cuando me saltó en el aleatorio de canciones del móvil ayer por segunda vez en el día, la volví a escuchar (y cantar, en bajito) enterita. Como siempre, pongo un par de vídeos y la letra al final. Ojalá escucharla sirviera para algo.
Just look at all those hungry mouths we have to feed
Take a look at all the suffering we breed
So many lonely faces scattered all around
Searching for what they need
Is this the world we created?
What did we do it for?
Is this the world we invaded
Against the law?
So it seems in the end
Is this what we're all living for today?
The world that we created
You know that every day a helpless child is born
Who needs some loving care inside a happy home
Somewhere a wealthy man is sitting on his throne
Waiting for life to go by
Is this the world we created?
We made it on our own
Is this the world we devastated
Right to the bone?
If there's a God in the sky looking down
What can he think of what we've done
To the world that He created?
Take a look at all the suffering we breed
So many lonely faces scattered all around
Searching for what they need
Is this the world we created?
What did we do it for?
Is this the world we invaded
Against the law?
So it seems in the end
Is this what we're all living for today?
The world that we created
You know that every day a helpless child is born
Who needs some loving care inside a happy home
Somewhere a wealthy man is sitting on his throne
Waiting for life to go by
Is this the world we created?
We made it on our own
Is this the world we devastated
Right to the bone?
If there's a God in the sky looking down
What can he think of what we've done
To the world that He created?
