The Wonders — That Thing You Do!

‘That Thing You Do!’ -1996- narraba una historia muy musical. La de un grupo, en este caso llamado The Wonders, que llegaba a la fama gracias a un éxito, la canción que da título al film, pero que después de él, como se dice popularmente, no se comía un colín. Es decir, el típico grupo ‘one hit wonder’.
Cuatro jóvenes de chaqueta roja, pero no, no se equivoquen que no son The Kinks, con un mánager muy peculiar: Tom Hanks. Aunque es una historia de ficción, con un grupo ficticio, lo cierto es que no nos cuesta imaginarnos que esta canción hubiese triunfado durante la década de los años 60. Lo tiene todo.

You,
Doin’ that thing you do,
Breaking my heart into a million pieces,
Like you always do
And you,
Don’t mean to be cruel,
You never even knew about the heartache,
I’ve been going through
Well I try and try to forget you girl,
But it’s just so hard to do,
Every time you do that thing you do

I,
Know all the games you play,
And I’m gonna find a way to let you know that,
You’ll be mine someday
‘Cause we,
Could be happy can’t you see,
If you’d only let me be the one to hold you,
And keep you here with me
‘Cause I try and try to forget you girl,
But it’s just so hard to do,
Every time you do that thing you do

I don’t ask a lot girl,
But I know one thing’s for sure,
It’s the love I haven’t got girl,
And I just can’t take it anymore

‘Cause we,
Could be happy can’t you see,
If you’d only let me be the one to hold you,
And keep you here with me
Cause it hurts me so just to see you go,
Around with someone new,
And if I know you you’re doin’ that thing,
Every day just doin’ that thing,
I can’t take you doing that thing you do
