LIVE8

20 anos na história do mundo é como uma gota no oceano. Talvez por isso se torne necessário este novo concerto para consciencializar certas mentes. Espero que o objectivo se cumpra.
Mas não consigo deixar de ver este Live8 com uma sensação de nostalgia, porque ainda está muito presente na minha mentes certas imagens do Live Aid.
Mas mais do que escrever sobre, prefiro relembrar algumas palavras alheias, porque penso que estas resumem bem melhor a intenção desta iniciativa.

Is this the world we created?, Queen

Just look at all those hungry mouths we have to feed

Take a look at all the suffering we breed

So many lonely faces scattered all around

Searching for what they need

Is this the world we created?

What did we do it for?

Is this the world we invaded

Against the law?

So it seems in the end

Is this what we're all living for today?

The world that we created

You know that every day a helpless child is born

Who needs some loving care inside a happy home

Somewhere a wealthy man is sitting on his throne

Waiting for life to go by

Is this the world we created?

We made it on our own

Is this the world we devastated

Right to the bone?

If there's a God in the sky looking down

What can he think of what we've done

To the world that He created?
