Mint Condition: Nothing Left to Say

Mint Condition se formaron a finales de los años 80, dando a luz sus primeras publicaciones ya en la década de los 90. Con un estilo musical muy diverso consecuencia de la absorción por parte de sus componentes, tanto de influencias jazz de artistas como Oscar Peterson y Herbie Hancock, como otras más soul/funk de grupos y artistas como Brothers Johnson y Bar-Kays, llegando incluso a aspirar influencias de ritmos y sonidos latinos o jamaicanos. Y es que ellos han sido una esponja que han sabido moldear y recrear su propio sello sonoro, fusionando el R&B y soul con el jazz y rock, haciéndoles una banda distinguida y admirada que les ha servido para perdurar vivos durante varias décadas.

De esta última década -y tambien último trabajo discográfico- es "Nothing Left to Say", un tema urbano surgido de la versatilidad de esta banda que suena fantásticamente bien y con el que retomamos el sendero de este 2011 esperanzados en su retorno ya cercano para celebrar su veinteavo aniversario.


Letra
Love was so strong
At least at the beginning
Who wouldve thought
There'd ever be an ending
We had it all
But it's like we've run into a wall

Now we try to talk
But just end up fighting
Try making up
But there's just no denying
Just ain't the same no more
What are we putting ourselves through all this for

You talk and hear me
But you can't communicate
Cause you're not listening
Know these are two different things
Now I see what it means to have been
Blinded by the one you love so deeply
Cause,

The very things that made me love you
Are the things pushing me away now
In tears we stand here
With nothing left to say

And all I could do for you
I should've done before now
In tears we stand here
There's nothing, nothing left to say

You touched my heart
And were so givin
Spare it so free
You threw me in it
I fell so deep
I could not see my life
Without you in it

Girl you gave me
A lot of attention
Somehow the feeling turned
Into crazy possessive
It was always there
But I didn't look deeper
If I would've I'da seen the limits

You talk and hear me
But you can't communicate
Cause you're not listening
Know these are two different things
Now I see what it means to have been
Blinded by the one you love so deeply

I had my pride girl
And you had your pain
So deep inside you
Wanted to have your say
Irritated, frustrated and third baby
This is so confusing
Girl I though this was the one thing for sure

The very things that made me love you
Are the things pushing me away now
In tears we stand here
With nothing left to say

And all I could do for you
I should've done before now
In tears we stand here
There's nothing left to say

[Bridge:]
(Nothing) [x4]
Wish I had more words
To try and encourage
Us to find a way
Cause there's nothing left to say

The very things that made me love you
Are the things pushing me away now
In tears we stand here
With nothing left to say

And all I could do for you
I should've done before now
In tears we stand here
There's nothing left to say

Things that made me love you
Are the things pushing me away now
In tears we stand here
With nothing left to say

And all I could do for you
I should've done before now
In tears we stand here
There's nothing left to say

Baby, there's nothing left to say
