Als je een soundtrack van de kredietcrisis zou mogen samenstellen, welk nummer zou daar dan in moeten? Ik denk in ieder geval Depeche Mode’s Everything Counts…
De officiële video is hier te zien:
En bekijk ten slotte, als je met een glimlach de dag door wilt komen, de volgende cover-versie:
Hier de lyrics:
The handshake seals the contract
From the contract there’s no turning back
The turning point of a career
In Korea being insincere
The holiday was fun-packed
The contract, still intactThe grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves – after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves – after all
It’s a competitive worldEverything counts in large amounts
The graph on the wall
Tells the story of it all
Picture it now see just how
The lies and deceit gained a little more power
Confidence – taken in
By a suntan and a grinThe grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves – after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves – after all
It’s a competitive worldEverything counts in large amounts
The grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts(Bron: http://www.depechemode.com/lyrics/everythingcounts.html)
