Madonna - American Pie
A long, long time ago she took the stage in a shimmering fringed top, riding a mechanical bull against a wall of stars. 19 декабря 2017 года Madonna выпустила официальное HD-видео на свой кавер «American Pie» — песни, которая когда-то заставила мир улыбнуться. Здесь она перевоплощается в американскую икону: то в ковбойской шляпе на фоне развевающегося флага, то в образе дерзкой рок-звезды с электрогитарой. Атмосфера клипа — смесь ностальгии и вызова: гранж, родео, придорожные бары и вечное «Bye, bye, Miss American Pie». Сюжет разворачивается как сновидение о потерянном рае. Мадонна — то ли девочка из маленького городка, то ли ангел, парящий над полями пшеницы. Она проживает каждую строчку легендарного хита Дона Маклина: танцует в гимнастическом зале, сидит на капоте «Шевроле» среди сухой травы, падает на сцену в облаке конфетти. Настроение — горьковато-сладкое, как виски с ржаным хлебом: грусть о том, что музыка умерла, смешана с танцевальным драйвом. Режиссёр Филипп Штёльцль (Philipp Stölzl) снял клип в 2000 году — но именно в декабре 2017 года видео обрело новое HD-дыхание, чтобы напомнить: рок-н-ролл может спасти душу, если ты готов учиться танцевать медленно. Текст песни: A long, long time ago I can still remember how that music used to make me smile And I knew that if I had my chance I could make those people dance And maybe they'd be happy for a while Did you write the book of love And do you have faith in God above If the Bible tells you so Now do you believe in Rock 'n' roll And can music save your mortal soul And can you teach me how to dance real slow Well, I know that you're in love with him 'Cos I saw you dancin' in the gym You both kicked off your shoes Man, I dig those rhythm and blues I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck With a pink carnation and a pick-up truck But I knew that I was out of luck The day the music died I started singing Bye, bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singing this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die I met a girl who sang the blues And I asked her for some happy news But she just smiled and turned away I went down to the sacred store Where I'd heard the music years before But the man there said the music wouldn't play Well now, in the streets the children screamed The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed But not a word was spoken Tho church bells all were broken And the three men I admire the most The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost They caught the last train for the coast The day the music died We started singin' Bye, bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singing this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die Bye, bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singing this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die We started singin' We started singin' We started singin' We started singin'
