Prejuicios, modelos, etc ...



Como lo habréis notado, además de usar clips musicales para ayudar a mis metáforas, intento dar cabida a todo tipo de estilos musicales en este blog. El objetivo es ayudar a abrir nuestras mentes, teniendo en cuenta que nuestros gustos musicales a veces resultan limitadores y eso impide desarrollarnos. En el caso de hoy, un estilo musical que tiene poca audiencia en Europa, el "country".

Aquí tienen a Jennings, Cash, Nelson y Kristofferson interpretando el clásico "highwayman". Se podrá objetar que ellos son las máximas figuras del country y que estoy haciendo trampa. En realidad, algo que comento habitualmente en este blog, hay varias preguntas que formularnos:

¿ Por qué he de conformarme con cosas mediocres, tanto en lo musical como en lo profesional ?
¿ Tengo derecho a ser exigente, sea cual sea el asunto en curso ?
¿ Puedo luchar contra mis prejuicios ?
¿ Me reporta algún beneficio el cuestionar las cosas ?
¿ No es acaso una característica básica de un líder precisamente el ver "más allá" y ayudar a los demás a que compartan esa visión extendida ?
¿ Es justo que otros quieran encerrarme en un marco rígido de pensamientos y gustos ?
etc ...

Highwayman lyrics
I was a highwayman. Along the coach roads I did ride
With sword and pistol by my side
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five
But I am still alive.

I was a sailor. I was born upon the tide
And with the sea I did abide.
I sailed a schooner round the Horn to Mexico
I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow
And when the yards broke off they said that I got killed
But I am living still.

I was a dam builder across the river deep and wide
Where steel and water did collide
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
But I am still around..I'll always be around..and around and around and
around and around

I fly a starship across the Universe divide
And when I reach the other side
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
But I will remain
And I'll be back again, and again and again and again and again

  1. Hello would you mind stating which blog platform you're working with? I'm planning to start my own blog in the near future but I'm having a tough time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something completely unique.
    P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

  6. I have been browsing online greater than 3 hours lately,
    yet I never found any attention-grabbing article like yours.
    It's pretty worth sufficient for me. In my view, if all website owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the net will probably be a lot more useful than ever before.

  7. I leave a response when I appreciate a post on
    a site or if I have something to add to the discussion.

    Usually it's caused by the fire communicated in the post I looked at. And on this post "Prejuicios, modelos, etc ...". I was moved enough to drop a thought :-P I actually do have 2 questions for you if you don't mind.

    Could it be just me or does it look like a few of these remarks come across like they
    are written by brain dead visitors? :-P And, if you are writing at other online social sites, I would like to follow everything new you have to
    post. Would you list all of your community pages like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?

  10. Woah! I'm really digging the template/theme of this blog. It's simple,
    yet effective. A lot of times it's difficult to get that "perfect balance" between superb usability and visual appeal. I must say that you've done
    a amazing job with this. Also, the blog loads super fast for me on Internet explorer.
    Excellent Blog!
