Oi Va Voi isimli İngiliz grubun 2003’te çıkardıkları
“Laughter Through Tears” albümü tek kelimeyle muhteşem. Onlar hakkında
yazmamak için çok direndim. Çünkü onları dinlemek bir nevi kendi içimde bir yolculuk,
çoğu zaman bana özel bir tören havası taşıyordu. “Ladino Song” isimli
parçalarıyla ilk ok içimde bir yerlere saplandı. Yesterday’s Mistakes ise hem müziği
hem sözleriyle süresiz bir kira kontratıyla yerleşti içimdeki dairelerden
birine. Herkes hata yapar, hatalar affedilmeli ama unutulmamalıdır…
“Don’t
need another resolution to feel
As though I’m going somewhere, somewhere
You said you needed me
Or at least that’s what I thought
At times the memories
Seem to be knocking at my door
I’ve seen the film a million times
Feels like I wrote the storyline
I refuse to replay
The mistakes that we made yesterday
I like to think I’m stronger now
Victim of common sense
The truth is that I know I still
Confuse the past with the present tense
Condensing what we had
To a single frame
That sticks in my mind
As I try to move on
The same image comes back every time
They were yesterdays mistakes
And they were yesterdays mistakes
Yesterday’s mistakes
Somewhere
Forgive my selfishness
I’d be grateful if you can
Forget my ingratitude
You think I’m twice the girl I am
They say we should forgive
But not forget
What has gone before
I refuse to replay
The mistakes that we made yesterday
And they were yesterdays mistakes
Yesterday’s mistakes
They were yesterdays mistakes
I refuse to replay
The mistakes that we made yesterday
I refuse to replay
The mistakes that we made yesterday
I refuse to replay
The mistakes that we made yesterday
I refuse to replay
The mistakes that we made yesterday
I refuse to replay
The mistakes that we made yesterday
I refuse to replay
The mistakes that we made yesterday”
