Me First and The Gimme Gimmes "I Will Survive" (Gloria Gaynor) @ Sala Apolo (10/02/2017) Barcelona

Este es el tema 19 del concierto que los Me First and The Gimme Gimmes ofrecieron en la sala Apolo de Barcelona ante un público dispuesto al buen rollismo que les caracteriza. La banda de versiones formada en 1995 regresaba a la península tras tres años con la presencia de Jay Bentley (Bad Religion), Joey Cape y Dave Raun (Lagwagon), Scott Shiflett (Face to Face) y Spike Slawson (Swingin' Utters -Uke-Hunt). A manos de HFMN Crew pudimos disfrutar de unos acompañantes de lujo para las tres fechas que incluyeron también Madrid y Bilbao. Los Masked Intruder se encargaron de calentar el ambiente con un show que va mas allá de lo habitual. Vestidos con pasamontañas de colores y tocando junto a un personaje caracterizado de policía la fiesta estaba asegurada.

“I Will Survive” es una canción original de (Gloria Gaynor), cuya versión sale en el tema 01 del disco "Are We Not Men? We Are Diva!" (2014)
------------------- Lyrics: -------------------
At first I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live
Without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights
Thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along
And so you're back
From outer space
I just walked in to find you here
With that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second
You'd be back to bother me
Go on now go walk out the door
Just turn around now
'cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Did you think I'd crumble
Did you think I'd lay down and die
Oh no, not I
I will survive
Oh as long as I know how to love
I know I will stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive
I will survive (hey-hey)
It took all the strength I had
Not to fall apart
Kept trying hard to mend
The pieces of my broken heart
And I spent oh so many nights
Just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry
But now I hold my head up high
And you see me
Somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person
Still in love with you
And so you felt like dropping in
And just expect me to be free
And now I'm saving all my loving
For someone who's loving me
Go on now go walk out the door
Just turn around now
'cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye
Did you think I'd crumble
Did you think I'd lay down and die
Oh no, not I
I will survive
Oh as long as I know how to love
I know I will stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive
I will survive

Me First and The Gimme Gimmes es una banda compuesta por miembros de otras bandas de éxito que basa su repertorio exclusivamente en interpretar reconocidas canciones anglosajonas de los 60, 70, 80 y 90. Desde clásicos del rock como Led Zeppelin, cantautores folk como Johnny Cash, clásicos del country como "Goodbye Earl" interpretado por Dixie Chiks, pasando por algunos hits como "Uptown Girl" de Billy Joel o "I Believe I Can Fly" de R.Kelly. Los GIMME GIMMES son, sin lugar a dudas, la mejor banda de versiones que existe. Su alineación no es siempre la misma pues para girar hay que coordinar a personajes del punk tales como Fat Mike, bajista de NOFX, Scott Shiflett bajista de Face to Face y hermano del actual guitarra de los Foo Fighters ex-guitarrista de No Use For a Name, Chris Shiflett, Dave Raun y Joey Cape de Lagwagon. Ellos, junto al cantante Spike Slawson, bajista de los $wingin' Utter$, se han encargado de darle un aire más desenfadado a clásicos temas que han marcado a varias generaciones.
