Davy Jones
1945 - 2012
Uma morte noticiada na emissão da rádio em directo neste dia 29 de Fevereiro:
Davy Jones, o vocalista dos britânicos The Mokees que, na década de sessenta, ficaram célebres ao interpretarem um tema da autoria de Neil Diamond, que imediatamente se tornou num clássico.
Davy Jones era inglês, tinha 66 anos de idade e morreu na Florida, EUA.
The Monkees – “I Am a Beliver” (1966):
I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me.
Love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed.
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.
Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, I'm a believer!
I couldn't leave her if I tried.
I thought love was more or less a given thing,
Seems the more I gave the less I got.
What's the use in tryin'?
All you get is pain.
When I needed sunshine I got rain.
Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, I'm a believer!
I couldn't leave her if I tried
