Dire Straits - Walk Of Life

"Here comes johnny singing oldies, goldies
Be-bop-a-lua, baby what I say
Here comes johnny singing I gotta woman
Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay
He got the action, he got the motion
Yeah, the boy can play
Dedication devotion
Turning all the night time into the day

He do the song about the sweet lovin woman
He do the song about the knife
He do the walk, he do the walk of life

Here comes johnny and hell tell you the story
Hand me down mu walkin shoes
Here come johnny with the power and the glory
Backbeat the talkin blues
He got the action, he got the motion
Yeah, the boy can play
Dedication devotion
Turning all the night time into the day

He do the song about the sweet lovin woman
He do the song about the knife
He do the walk, he do the walk of life

Here comes johnny singing oldies, goldies
Be-bop-a-lula, baby what I say
Here comes johnny singing I gotta woman
Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay
He got the action, he got the motion
Yeah the boy can play
Decidation devotion
Turning all the night time into the day

And after all the violence and double talk
Theres just a song in the trouble and the strife
You do the walk, you do the walk of life"

I don't know why I feel so tounge-tied
I don't know why I feel so skinned alive

Moan until your lungs are sore,until you cannot feel it anymore
moan until your lungs are sore,until you find and open the door

I'll build you up to pull you down,tie you to your feet and watch you drown
A little bit of knowldge will destroy you...
A little bit of knowledge will destroy you
I'll build you up to pull you down,tie you to the stake and watch you burn in
hell...
in hell...
I don't know why I feel so tounge-tied

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

I'll find another skin to wear

Stephen Stills & Manassas : Bound To Fall

from the album "Manassas" (1972)



Bound To Fall

Just as everythings going fine
Lose my grip and slide
Bounce the rock and catch the ball bound to fall
Fall stumble or toe the line
See my face and hide
Catch the tears I've cried
From reality it seems I've strayed
Tired of all the silly games I play
From reality it seems I've strayed
Tired of all the silly games I play
Just as everythings going fine
See my life in rhyme
Hear my hand slip from the wall bound to fall
Fall, stumble and reaching blind
Oh, how hard I've tried
Possibly I've died

The Black Heart Procession - A Light So Dim
there are no trains that leave from the maze
my only chance was a ship to escape
if you are the light house in the storm
I'll be the ship with a thousand dead souls
how long will they believe in a light so dim
down in the gallows the darkness glows
it was hard to see in the hearts of them
if you see a light call down below
I'll be moving and sorting out our fears
how long will we believe in a light so dim
cause time is all we have so make the time
throw down the line I'll see to climb
if it's held close it may just work
if you are the light house in the storm
I'll be the ship filled with a thousand dead souls
and time is all we have so take the time
to make the time and make time to take the time

The Smiths - There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
1986



Take me out tonight
Where theres music and theres people
And theyre young and alive
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I havent got one
Anymore

Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people and i
Want to see life
Driving in your car
Oh, please dont drop me home
Because its not my home, its their
Home, and Im welcome no more

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine

Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I dont care
I dont care, I dont care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought oh god, my chance has come at last
(but then a strange fear gripped me and i
Just couldnt ask)

Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere, I dont care
I dont care, I dont care
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I havent got one, da ...
Oh, I havent got one

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine

Oh, there is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out

Franco Battiato - Aria di rivoluzione ("Sulle corde di Aries", 1973)

Quell'autista in Abissinia
guidava il camion fino a tardi
E poi a notte fonda
si riunivano
A quel tempo in europa c'era un'altra guerra
E per canzoni solo sirene d'allarme.

Aber
der Glanz Müntzerscher Morgensterne
über den aufrührerischen Bauern
wenn sie ihren Peinigern
ein blutiges Licht aufsteckten.

Aber
der Wohlklang der Stalin-Orgel
wenn sie den Hitler-Soldaten
zu Weihnacht FRIEDE AUF ERDEN
in die erfrorenen Ohren brüllte.

Passa il tempo
sembra che non cambi niente
Questa mia generazione
vuole nuovi valori
E ho già sentito
aria di rivoluzione
Ho già sentito gridare
Chi andrà alla fucilazione

Aber
die Eleganz automatischer Raketen
in Ho-Chi-Minhs Himmeln
wenn sie den erstaunlichen Ingenieurleistungen aus Detroit
den erstaunlichen Kuß geben.

Aber
die Schönheit der Maschinenpistole
über der Schulter des Guerilla-Kämpfers
wenn er dem bolivianischen Kuli
treffende Argumente gegen seine Unterdrücker liefert
die sie endlich verstehn.

Das Beste aber:
Polizisten, abgerichtet gegen das Volk
wenn sie im Strom der empörten Massen
durch die Straßenschluchten geschwemmt ertrinken.
Und endlich endlich ergreifen sie statt ihrer Waffen
die rettende Hand der Waffenlosen.

U2 - October
1981



October
And the trees are stripped bare
Of all they wear
What do I care

October
And Kingdoms rise
And Kingdoms fall
But you go on...

...and on...

The Byrds : You Ain't Goin' Nowhere

from the album "Sweetheart Of The Rodeo" (1968)



You Ain't Goin' Nowhere

Clouds so swift
Rain won't lift
Gate won't close
Railings froze
Get your mind off wintertime
You ain't goin nowhere
Whoo-ee ride me high
Tomorrow's the day
My bride's gonna come
Oh, Oh are we gonna fly
Down in the easy chair

I don't care
How many letters they send
Morning came and morning went
Pack up your money
Pick up your tent
You ain't goin nowhere
Whoo-ee ride me high
Tomorrow's the day
My bride's gonna come
Oh, Oh are we gonna fly
Down in the easy chair

Buy me a flute
And a gun that shoots
Tailgates and substitutes
Strap yourself
To a tree with roots
You ain't goin nowhere
Whoo-ee ride me high
Tomorrow's the day
My bride's gonna come
Oh, Oh are we gonna fly
Down in the easy chair

Now Genghis Kahn
He could not keep
All his kings
Supplied with sleep
We'll climb that hill no matter how steep
When we get up to it
Whoo-ee ride me high
Tomorrow's the day
My bride's gonna come
Oh, Oh are we gonna fly
Down in the easy chair

The Police "Does Everyone Stare"

I change my clothes ten times before I take you on a date
Im in a cold sweat, I panic, and it makes me late
I knew you never asked for this
I know
My shots will always misfire
My shots will always miss

Does everyone stare this way at you?
I only look this way at you

I change my clothes ten times before I take you on a date
I get the heebie-jeebies, and my panic makes me late
I break into a cold sweat reaching for the phone
I let it ring twice before I chicken out and decide youre not at home

Does everyone stare the way I do?
I only stare this way at you

I never noticed the size of my feet
Until I kicked you in the shins
Will you ever forgive me
For the shape Im in
For the shape Im in

Does everyone stare the way I do?
I only stare this way at you

Im gonna write you a sonnet but I dont know where to start
Im so used to laughing at the things in my heart
Last of all Im sorry cos you never asked for this
I can see Im not your type and my shot will always miss

Does everyone stare the way I do?
I only stare this way at you

Da un (gran) bel film una (gran) bella voce: Kathleen Battle -Lovers-

There was a field in my old town
Where we always played hand in hand
The wind was gently touching the grass
We were so young so fearless

Then I dreamt over and over of
you holding me tight under the stars
I made a promise to my dear Lord
I will love you forever

Time has passed
So much has changed
But the field remains in my heart
Oh where are you?
I need to tell you I still love you
So I reach out for you
You fly around me like a butterfly
Your voice still echoes in my heart
You are my true love

There was a field in my old town
Where in Spring all flowers blossomed wide
We were chasing butterflies
Hand in hand 'till close of day
Your voice still echoes in my heart

The Flying Burrito Brothers : Christine's Tune

from the album "The Gilded Palace of Sin" (1969)



Christine's Tune

She's a devil in disguise
You can see it in her eyes
She's telling dirty lies
She's a devil in disguise
In disguise

Unhappiness has been her close companion
Her world is full of jealously and doubt
It gets her off to see a person crying
She's just the kind that you can do without

She's a devil in disguise
You can see it in her eyes
She's telling dirty lies
She's a devil in disguise
In disguise

Her number always turns up in your pocket
Whenever you are looking for a dime
It's all right to call her, but I'll bet you
The moon is full and you're just wasting time.

She's a devil in disguise
You can see it in her eyes
She's telling dirty lies
She's a devil in disguise
In disguise

Magari avrei potuto postare un pezzo più rappresentativo nel giorno del mio compleanno, ma oggi la mia canzone del giorno è una cover :D

Mad Caddies - SOS
2000




where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find
i tried to reach for you, but you have closed your mind
whatever happened to our love?
i wish i understood
it used to be so nice, it used to be so good
so when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
s. o. s.
the love you gave me, nothing else can save me
s. o. s.
when you're gone
how can i even try to go on?
when you're gone
though i try how can i carry on?

you seem so far away though you are standing near
you made me feel alive, but something died i fear
i really tried to make it out
i wish i understood
what happened to our love, it used to be so good

so when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
s. o. s.
the love you gave me, nothing else can save me
s. o. s.
when you're gone
how can i even try to go on?
when you're gone
though i try how can i carry on?

so when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
s. o. s.
and the love you gave me, nothing else can save me
s. o. s.
when you're gone
how can i even try to go on?
when you're gone
though i try how can i carry on?
when you're gone
how can i even try to go on?
when you're gone
though i try how can i carry on?
