If You Love Somebody Set Them Free

If You Love Somebody Set Them Free de Sting

If you need somebody, call my name

If you want someone, you can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
If you want to hold onto your possession
Don't even think about me

If you love somebody, set them free

If it's a mirror you want, just look into my eyes
Or a whipping boy, someone to despise
Or a prisoner in the dark
Tied up in chains you just can't see
Or a beast in a gilded cage
That's all some people ever want to be

If you love somebody, set them free

You can't control an independent heart
Can't tear the one you love apart
Forever conditioned to believe that we can't live
We can't live here and be happy with less
So many riches, so many souls
Everything we see we want to possess

If you need somebody, call my name
If you want someone, you can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
If you want to hold onto your possession
Don't even think about me
If you love somebody, set them free

Noche de verano

Una versión acustica de Little Wing de Jimi Hendrix.
Ahora sí, la versión con letra en voz de Hendrix:

"Well she's walking through the clouds (...)

When I’m sad, she comes to me
with a thousand smiles she gives to me free.
It’s alright, she says, it’s alright.
Take anything you want from me.
Anything.
Fly on, little wing"

Son muchos los que han hecho versiones de esta canción, Sting se la cargó al castellanizarla :-) como "venganza" la hispanización de fragilidad del susodicho por parte de Buena Vista Social Club. No es la única versión que hicieron, al de Clocks de Coldplay hasta mola. Pero mejor cada cual a lo suyo: Ibrahim Ferrer y compañia y su Chan Chan
