Summer of 69
Bryan Adams
Energia pura quella sprigionata da Bryan Adams nel brano "Summer of 69"!
Rock bello potente e nostalgia si fondono in un prorompente concentrato di forza musicale e voce graffiata.
Due sono gli autori della canzone: Bryan Adams e Jim Vallance. Il primo ritiene il "69" del titolo un riferimento alla omonima nota posizione sessuale. Il secondo lo ritiene un riferimento effettivo all'anno 1969. Non so chi abbia ragione, ma di sicuro qualcuno sta mentendo.
