El tarot, el pop y Madonna

Madonna - Hollywood (American Life)

Este es el video que aparecia en las pantallas del Re-Invention Tour mientras sonaba Hollywood. Lo que me llama la atención es que las cartas no están utilizadas sólo por su valor estético, sino que los significados están muy bien enlazados.



LETRA DE LA CANCION

Everybody comes to Hollywood
They wanna make it in the neighbourhood
They like the smell of it in Hollywood
How could it hurt you when it looks so good?
Shine your light now
This time it's got to be good
You get it right now
Cause you're in Hollywood

There's something in the air in Hollywood
The sun is shining like you knew it would
You're riding in your car in Hollywood
You got the top down and it feels so good

Everybody comes to Hollywood
They wanna make it in the neighbourhood
They like the smell of it in Hollywood
How could it hurt you when it looks so good?

I lost my memory in Hollywood
I've had a million visions bad and good
There's something in the air in Hollywood
I tried to leave it but I never could

Shine your light now
This time it's got to be good
You get it right now yeah
Cause you're in Hollywood

There's something in the air in Hollywood
I've lost my reputation bad and good
You're riding in your car in Hollywood
You got the top down and it feels so good

Music stations always play the same songs
I'm bored with the concept of right and wrong

Everybody comes to Hollywood
They wanna make it in the neighbourhood
They like the smell of it in Hollywood
How could it hurt you when it looks so good?

Shine your light now
This time it's got to be good
You get it right now yeah
Cause you're in Hollywood
Cause you're in Hollywood
Cause you're in Hollywood
In Hollywood
In Hollywood
In Hollywood

Check it out
This bird has flown

Shine your light now
This time it's got to be good
You get it right now yeah
Cause you're in Hollywood
Cause you're in Hollywood
Cause you're in Hollywood
In Hollywood
In Hollywood
In Hollywood
