Δεν ξέρω αν “η ομορφιά βρίσκεται στην απλότητα” όπως επιμένουν κάποιοι, ούτε νομίζω ότι ισχύει. Σ’ αυτήν πάντως την ερμηνεία του φολκ ύμνου από τον Mississippi John Hurt, η απλότητα πάει χέρι-χέρι με την ομορφιά, και τη μεγαλοσύνη.
I don’t know if “beauty lies in simplicity” as some people insist, nor do I think it does. In this performance of the folk hymn by Mississippi John Hurt, though, simplicity goes hand in hand with beauty, and greatness.

I shall not, I shall not be moved
Oh I, shall not, I shall not be moved
I shall not, I shall not be moved
Just like a tree planted by the water
I shall not be moved
I’m on my way to heaven, I shall not be moved
On my way to heaven, I shall not be moved
Just like a tree planted by the water
I shall not be moved
Oh I, shall not, I shall not be moved
I shall not, I shall not be moved
Just like a tree planted by the water
I shall not be moved
Oh preacher, I shall not be moved
Oh preacher, I shall not be moved
Just like a tree planted by the water
I shall not be moved
I’m sanctified and holy, I shall not be moved
Sanctified and holy, I shall not be moved
Just like a tree that’s planted by the water
I shall not be moved
Oh I, I shall not be moved
I shall not, I shall not be moved
Just like a tree planted by the water
I shall not be moved
