"My Fair Lady" es un musical un poco largo, es cierto, pero si te levantas con muchas ganas de cantar (buena manera de empezar una semana después de un puente) este tema es el adecuado: "On The Street Where You Live", con música de Frederick Loewe y letra de Alan Jay Lerner, una de las canciones más populares de la película.
Recordar la peli viene bien también porque te entran muchas ganas de vocalizar correctamente y de tener violetas esparcidas por toda la casa.
Os dejo la escena de la película y un par de versiones más; y con la letra (para practicar inglés y cantar mucho)
Freddy When she mentioned how her aunt bit off the spoon,
She completely done me in.
And my heart went on a journey to the moon,
When she told about her father and the gin.
And I never saw a more enchanting farce
Than that moment when she shouted
"move your bloomin' "....
I have often walked down this street before;
But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before.
All at once am I Several stories high.
Knowing I'm on the street where you live.
Are there lilac trees in the heart of town?
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Does enchantment pour Out of ev'ry door?
No, it's just on the street where you live!
And oh! The towering feeling
Just to know somehow you are near.
The overpowering feeling
That any second you may suddenly appear!
People stop and stare. They don't bother me.
For there's no where else on earth that I would rather be.
Let the time go by, I won't care if I
Can be here on the street where you live.
She completely done me in.
And my heart went on a journey to the moon,
When she told about her father and the gin.
And I never saw a more enchanting farce
Than that moment when she shouted
"move your bloomin' "....
