Minutos musicales: las canciones del HOMBRE DE HIERRO

Si hay un personaje con el que asocia a Robert Downey Jr. (aún queda por comprobar qué huella dejará su Iron Man para la posteridad) es evidentemente el de Charles Chaplin, gracias a cuya mimética interpretación consiguió un merecidísimo Oscar y a cuya banda sonora el actor contribuyó con su propia "sonrisa" (incluida también en un disco que publicó en 2004).

Smile - Robert Downey Jr.

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through for you

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile


Por su parte, Gwyneth Paltrow no tiene una "carrera profesional" en el mundo de la música como "Tony Stark" pero sí que canta varias canciones en la película A dúo (Duets) de 2000, entre ellas esta sensual versión (en solitario) del mítico tema dedicado a los ojos de Bette Davis.

Bette Davis Eyes - Gwyneth Paltrow

Her hair is Harlow gold, her lips sweet surprise
Her hands are never cold, she's got Better Davis eyes
She'll turn the music on you, you won't have to think twice
She's pure as New York snow, she got Bette Davis eyes

And she'll tease you, she'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
She got Greta Garbo's standoff sighs, she's got Bette Davis eyes

She'll let you take her home, it works her appetite
She'll lay you on the throne, she got Bette Davis eyes

She'll take a tumble on you, roll you like you were dice
Until you come out blue, she's got Bette Davis eyes

She'll expose you, when she snows you
Hope you're pleased with the crumbs she throws you
She's ferocious and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes

And she'll tease you, she'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes
