En abril de 1967, una banda británica llamada Procol Harum emergió en el panorama musical, liderada por el carismático Gary Brooker. Brooker era un talentoso pianista y vocalista, conocido por su habilidad para fusionar el rock con elementos de música clásica. Le acompañaban el letrista Keith Reid, el guitarrista Robin Trower, el baterista B.J. Wilson, el tecladista Matthew Fisher y el bajista David Knights.
No tardaron mucho en dejar su huella en la música. En mayo de 1967, lanzaron su primer sencillo, "A Whiter Shade of Pale", una mezcla hipnótica de rock, pop y música clásica, adornada con el órgano de Fisher y la evocadora letra de Reid. La canción no solo se convirtió en un éxito mundial, sino que también estableció a Procol Harum como pioneros del rock sinfónico. Hasta el día de hoy, es considerada una de las piezas más icónicas de la música moderna.
A medida que avanzaba su carrera, la formación de Procol Harum sufrió varios cambios. Robin Trower dejó la banda en 1971 para seguir una carrera en solitario, siendo reemplazado por Dave Ball y posteriormente por Mick Grabham. A pesar de estos cambios, el núcleo creativo constituido por Brooker y Reid mantuvo cohesionado el grupo.
Life Is Real Easy Song Lyrics
Life Is Real Easy by Procol Harum Call me on a train to a place you can get,
Anything that you want, anything that you wish,
Is a place kept secret and no one …
You just gotta know somebody, yow!
With me you’re good to go,
Welcome to the next level, we are dream fulfill!
Dangerous… diamonds, pearls, precious stones and meadows,
…lay back on the beach, make back at the spa,
Lay back at the hotel suit with a … smelly green...
Let’s go crazy and call shopping just like that,
You’re in a new benz, condoes in rome,
Egypt, paris, got you falling in love.
With all that is lavish, lifestyle living,
Five star resorts and private planes will change your whole vision!
Chorus:
Call me to a level where you gotta keep it to yourself,
Don’t go and tell that I was sad when life is very easy,
And everything you wish is at your fingertips.
Girl, call me to a level where you gotta keep it to yourself
Don’t go and tell that I was sad when life is very easy,
And everything you wish is at your fingertips.
With... and dior and d&g shades,
Now you see the world different, you try new things.
Thinking new thoughts, feeling new high, new buzz,
Forget what you used to love,
You get to a taste of power in twenty-four hours service.
No stress pending, just... spending.
Figuring that out in vegas ville,
We don’t care we lose, we like the atmosphere.
Let’s try dubai and... brazil,
Scuba, jet sky, baby get you thrills!
In new york you can help me study...
Take a ride through the balls if you want,
And make ‘em more jelly,
…two coupons and a mac...
We can buy the whole world and... to rent,
And buy the whole macy’s
So we can look good doing it!
Chorus:
Call me to a level where you gotta keep it to yourself,
Don’t go and tell that I was sad when life is very easy,
And everything you wish is at your fingertips.
Girl, call me to a level where you gotta keep it to yourself
Don’t go and tell that I was sad when life is very easy,
And everything you wish is at your fingertips.
