when we were young

• irlandalı grup whipping boy'dan zamanda kaybolmuş bir dünyanın en güzel şarkısı. yılı 1995. sözleri çok fazla şey anlatıyor, eklemek biraz abes. geçmişte kalan her şeye dair çok şık bir ağıt, çok hüzünlü bir hatırlayış. ilk sarhoş oluşa, aileyle ilk ciddi ilişkileri kuruşa, ilk aşka, oscar kazanmaya dair hayallerin ilk kuruluşuna...
  
  when we were young nobody died
  and nobody got older
  the toughest kid in the street
  could always be bought over
  and the first time that you loved
  you had all your life to give
  at least that's what you said
  the first time you got drunk
  you drank pernod and dry cider
  smashed a window in as the police came round the corner
  you didn't have no time to run
  and your dad stood up for you
  as the judge said you're a fool
  
  babies, sex and flagons, shifting women, getting stoned
  robbing cars, bars and pubs, rubber johnnies, poems
  starsky and hutch gave good tv
  and starsky looked like me
  
  the first time that you stole
  you stole rubber lips and tenners
  bought a radio then ran away for ever
  never felt so good, never felt so good with you
  when we were young we had no fear
  of love nor sex nor warnings
  everyone was hanging out, everyone was sorted
  when we were young nobody knew
  who you were or what you'd do
  nobody had a past that catches up on you
  
  babies, sex and flagons, shifting women, getting stoned
  robbing cars, bars and pubs, rubber johnnies, poems
  starsky and hutch gave good tv
  and starsky looked like me
  
  what might have been
  what might have been
  what might have been
  
  with a start he was awoken
  from the middle of a dream
  he's making movies in his head
  that never will be seen
  he's holding oscars in his hands
  and kissing beauty queens
  what might have been
  what might have been
  when we were young

• klibiyle taclanan bir dolores o'riordan saheseri, nicedir yol arkadasi salvation'in dahi yonetmeni olivier dahan imzali klibin tek elestirilebilecek yani, yanip sonen isiklarin bir sure sonra rahatsiz etmesi, hatta cocouklarda epileptik konvulziyonlari agreve edebilir. aman diyim.
