Proud

Sen dúbida unha das grandes cualidades de Queer as folk é a súa banda sonora. Alén de ser boísima, todos os temas (sobre todo na primeira temporada) están moi conectados coa trama da serie, moitos mesmo parecen compostos co guión dese capítulo diante. Curiosamente xusto o contrario que moitos vídeos musicais, onde a letra da canción di unha cousa e o vídeo nos conta outra historia totalmente distinta. E aínda que isto último non vén moito a conto, é unha boa excusa para escoitar Proud, un tema que descubrín cando vin o primeiro episodio de Queer as folk e que me encantou. O que nunca vira é este vídeo promocional da primeira temporada da serie en USA, que usa precisamente este tema musical.

A letra é a seguinte:

Proud

I look into the window of my mind
Reflections of the fears I know I've left behind
I step out of the ordinary
I can feel my soul ascending
I am on my way
Can't stop me now
And you can do the same

What have you done today to make you feel proud?
It's never too late to try
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
You could be so many people
If you make that break for freedom
What have you done today to make you feel proud?

Still so many answers I don't know
Realise that to question is how we grow
So I step out of the ordinary
I can feel my soul ascending
I am on my way
Can't stop me now
And you can do the same

What have you done today to make you feel proud?
It's never too late to try
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
You could be so many people
If you make that break for freedom
What have you done today to make you feel proud?

We need a change
Do it today
I can feel my spirit rising
We need a change
So do it today
'Cause I can see a clear horizon

What have you done today to make you feel proud?
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?
'Cause you could be so many people
If you make that break for freedom
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
What have you done today
You could be so many people?
Just make that break for freedom
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?
