"Astral Weeks"
If I ventured in the slipstream
Between the viaducts of your dream
Where immobile steel rims crack
And the ditch in the back roads stop
Could you find me?
Would you kiss-a my eyes?
To lay me down
In silence easy
To be born again
To be born again
From the far side of the ocean
If I put the wheels in motion
And I stand with my arms behind me
And I'm pushin' on the door
Could you find me?
Would you kiss-a my eyes?
To lay me down
In silence easy
To be born again
To be born again
There you go
Standin' with the look of avarice
Talkin' to Huddie Ledbetter
Showin' pictures on the wall
Whisperin' in the hall
And pointin' a finger at me
There you go, there you go
Standin' in the sun darlin'
With your arms behind you
And your eyes before
There you go
Takin' good care of your boy
Seein' that he's got clean clothes
Puttin' on his little red shoes
I see you know he's got clean clothes
A-puttin' on his little red shoes
A-pointin' a finger at me
And here I am
Standing in your sad arrest
Trying to do my very best
Lookin' straight at you
Comin' through, darlin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah
If I ventured in the slipstream
Between the viaducts of your dreams
Where immobile steel rims crack
And the ditch in the back roads stop
Could you find me
Would you kiss-a my eyes
Lay me down
In silence easy
To be born again
To be born again
To be born again
In another world
In another world
In another time
Got a home on high
Ain't nothing but a stranger in this world
I'm nothing but a stranger in this world
I got a home on high
In another land
So far away
So far away
Way up in the heaven
Way up in the heaven
Way up in the heaven
Way up in the heaven
In another time
In another place
In another time
In another place
Way up in the heaven
Way up in the heaven
We are goin' up to heaven
We are goin' to heaven
In another time
In another place
In another time
In another place
In another face

Marina Abramović y Ulay - MoMA 2010
Marina Abramovic se define a ella misma como la abuela del performance. [BIO]: Artista serbia que comenzó su carrera en los años 70. Poco después se mudó a Amsterdam y allí conoció a Ulay, con el que creó el colectivo 'The other'. Juntos comenzaron a despertar conciencias y levantar ampollas con curiosas acciones. Tras una intensa relación de diez años la pareja puso punto y final al amor de la siguiente manera: caminaron por la gran muralla china, cada uno por un extremo, se encontraron en un punto intermedio y se dieron un abrazo para no volver a verse nunca más..
2010, Nueva York - Marina organiza una performance en el MoMa llamada 'El artista está presente'. Sentada, cabizbaja y en silencio. Una mesa la separa del visitante. En cada encuentro Marina levanta la vista para mirarle directamente a los ojos durante un minuto.
Lo que no esperaba es que uno de los que se sentaron frente a ella fuera su ex pareja Ulay al que no veía desde hacía 23 años. El que fue amor de su vida, estaba allí sentado, en silencio, mirándola.
