LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: DEBONAIR/THE AFGHAN WHIGS

Hear me now and don't forget
I'm not the man my actions would suggest
A little boy, I'm tied to you
I fell apart
That's what I always do

This ain't about regret
My conscience can't be found
This time I won't repent
Somebody's going down

Feel it now and don't resist
This time the anger's better than the kiss
I must admit when so inclined
I tend to lose it than confront my mind

Cause it don't bleed and it don't breathe
It's locked its jaws and now it's swallowing
It's in our heart
It's in our head
It's in our love
Baby it's in our bed

Tonight I go to hell
For what I've done to you
This ain't about regret
It's when I tell the truth

And once again the monster speaks
Reveals his face and searches for release
A little boy is tied to you
Attracted only 'til it comes unglued

Cause it don't bleed and it don't breathe
It's locked its jaws and now it's swallowing
It's in our heart
It's in our head
It's in our love
Baby it's in our bed

Tonight I go to hell
For what I've done to you
This ain't about regret
It's when I tell the truth
Tonight I go to hell
For what I've done to you
This ain't about regret

ALBUM: GENTLEMEN (1993)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: DISARM/THE SMASHING PUMPKINS

Disarm you with a smile
And cut you like you want me to
Cut that little child
Inside of me and such a part of you
The years burn
The years burn

I used to be a little boy
So old in my shoes
And what I choose is my choice
What's a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you
My love
I send this smile over to you

Disarm you with a smile
And leave you like they left me here
To wither in denial
The bitterness of one who's left alone
The years burn
The years burn, burn, burn

I used to be a little boy
So old in my shoes
And what I choose is my voice
What's a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you
My love
I send this smile over to you

The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you

ALBUM: SIAMESE DREAM (1993)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: PAY FOR ME/WHALE

Please give up skin, when you forgive and believe me
Always waiting to shock (shock)

So for gods sake, live in me
Sugar daddy (ooh daddy daddy daddy)
A walking, talking, im low
Do what you want honey bow with your pain

Loving summer, you are spring coz your my Santa Claus machine
(love me)
Sugar daddy, hope you know i really think you gotta
pay for me

Blow up my chair
Go ahead suffer, dance around my handbag

What is love? but total affection
24 hours utter protection

Loving summer you are spring coz your my Santa Claus machine
(believe me)
Sugar daddy hope you know i really think you gotta pay for me

I'm so glad you ashamed
Running kula shaker birthday, the mix
When gravity kicks my ass you better pay (oh money money)
For my tits to be fixed

Loving summer you are spring coz your my Santa Claus machine
(leave me)
Sugar daddy hope you know i really think you gotta pay for me

Loving summer, you are spring coz your my Santa Claus machine
(love me)
Sugar daddy, hope you know i really think you gotta pay for me

ALBUM: WE CARE (1995)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE ZOOKEEPER'S BOY/MEW

Are you my lady, are you?

If I don't make it back from the city then
It is only because I am drawn away
For you see, evidently there's a dark storm come
And the chain on my swing is squeaking like a mouse

So are you my lady, are you?
The rain, the rain, the rain is falling down
The cars remain

You're tall just like a giraffe
You have to climb to find its head
But if there's a glitch
You're an ostrich
You've got your head in the sand

In a submersible I can hardly breathe
As it takes me inside, so the light sings
Answer me truthfully, do the clouds kiss you
With meringue-coloured hair I know they cannot

So are you my lady, are you?
The rain, the rain, the rain is falling down
The cars remain

Santa Ana winds bring seasickness
Zookeeper hear me out
How dare you go?
Cold in the rain

Tall just like a giraffe
You have to climb to find its head
But if there's a glitch
You're an ostrich
You've got your head in the sand

Are you my lady, are you?
The rain, the rain, the rain is falling down
The cars remain

I could not be seen with you
Working half the time and looking fine
In cars re-made

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: PILOT/THE NOTWIST

He's living next the rails
He can tell you things
Of different cars and trains
Now he's trying the whole day
To switch off time
By causing train-delay

Could be enough
If only he's the pilot
Once a day

Not a word to compensate
Not a sentence to describe
This desperate state
Not a picture to compare
We step into a room
Of opaque air

Could be enough
If only we are pilots
Once a day
Could be enough
If only we are pilots
Once a day

Not a word to compensate
Not a picture to compare
We step into a room
Of opaque air

Could be enough
If only we are pilots
Once a day
Could be enough
If only we are pilots
Once a day

POST-IT: MASSIVE ATTACK/HELIGOLAND

L'attesa sta per terminare: Heligoland, il nuovo album dei Massive Attack, sarà pubblicato il prossimo 8 di Febbraio, a 6 anni di distanza da 100th Window del 2003 (se si esclude la colonna sonora di Dannny The Dog, dell'anno successivo). Come si conviene ad un collettivo come quello di Bristol, le collaborazioni eccellenti si sprecano: si va Damon Albarn ad Hope Sandoval, da Martina Topley Bird a Tunde Adebimpe dei Tv On The Radio. E come se non bastasse, sembra probabile l'uscita di un'edizione speciale, che potrebbe accogliere altre tracce realizzate assieme a personaggi del calibro di Stephanie Dosen, Elizabeth Fraser, Mike Patton e Beth Orton. La copertina del disco è stata disegnata da 3D-Robert Del Naja, che del resto è stato un autorevole esponente della stessa generazione di graffitari dalla quale è venuto fuori un certo Banksy...
Ecco la tracklist della versione "normale" di Heligoland:

01. PRAY FOR RAIN (FEAT. TUNDE ADEBIMPE)
02. BABEL (FEAT. MARTINA TOPLEY BIRD)
03. SLITTING THE ATOM (FEAT. GRANT MARSHALL AND HORACE ANDY)
04. GIRL I LOVE YOU (FEAT. HORACE ANDY)
05. PSYCHE (FEAT. MARTINA TOPLEY BIRD)
06. FLAT ON THE BLADE (FEAT. GUY GARVEY)
07. PARADISE CIRCUS (FEAT. HOPE SANDOVAL)
08. RUSH MINUTE
09. SATURDAY COME SLOW (FEAT. DAMON ALBARN)
10. ATLAS AIR

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SMOKERS OUTSIDE THE HOSPITAL DOORS/EDITORS

Pull the blindfold down
So your eyes can't see
Now run as fast as you can
Through this field of trees

Say goodbye to everyone
You have ever known
You are not gonna see them ever again

I can't shake this feeling I've got
My dirty hands, have I been in the wars?
The saddest thing that I'd ever seen
Were smokers outside the hospital doors

Someone turn me around
Can I start this again?

How can we wear our smiles
With our mouths wide shut
'Cause you stopped us from singin'

I can't shake this feeling I've got
My dirty hands, have I been in the wars?
The saddest thing that I'd ever seen
Were smokers outside the hospital doors

Someone turn me around
Can I start this again?
Now someone turn us around
Can we start this again?

We've all been changed
From what we were
Our broken parts
Left smashed off the floor

I can't believe you
If I can't hear you
I can't believe you
If I can't hear you

We've all been changed
From what we were
Our broken parts
Smashed off the floor

We've all been changed
From what we were
Our broken parts
Smashed off the floor

Someone turn me around
(We've all been changed from what we were)
Can I start this again?
(Our broken parts smashed off the floor)
Now someone turn us around
(We've all been changed from what we were)
Can we start this again?
(Our broken parts smashed off the floor)

ALBUM: AN END HAS A START (2007)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: A SORT OF HOMECOMING/U2

And you know it's time to go
Through the sleet and driving snow
Across the fields of mourning
Lights in the distance
And you hunger for the time
Time to heal, desire, time
And your earth moves beneath
Your own dream landscape

On borderland we run
I'll be there
I'll be there
Tonight
A high road
A high road out from here

The city walls are all pulled down
The dust, a smoke screen all around
See faces ploughed like fields
That once gave no resistance
And we live by the side of the road
On the side of a hill
As the valleys explode
Dislocated, suffocated
The land grows weary of its own

Oh come away, oh come away
Oh come, oh come away, say I
Oh come away, oh come away
Oh come, oh come away, say I

On borderland, we run
And still we run
We run and don't look back
I'll be there
I'll be there
Tonight
Tonight

I'll be there tonight, I believe
I'll be there, somehow
I'll be there, tonight
Tonight

Oh come away, I say, say oh my
Oh come away, I say

The wind will crack in winter time
This bomb-blast lightning waltz
No spoken words, just a scream

Tonight we'll build a bridge
Across the sea and land
See the sky, the burning rain
She will die and live again
Tonight

And your heart beats so slow
Through the rain and fallen snow
Across the fields of mourning
Lights in the distance
Don't sorrow, no don't weep
For tonight, at last
I am coming home
I am coming home

ALBUM: THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE (1984)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: MRS. COLD/KINGS OF CONVENIENCE

Hey baby, Mrs. Cold
Acting so tough
Didn't know you had it in you so be hurt at all
You waited too long
You should've hook me
before I put my raincoat on

Ok I get it
Ok can I see
You were fronting because
You knew you'd find yourself vulnerable around me
Ok I get it
Ok I see
You feel vulnerable around me

Hey baby
what’s going on?
You lost control and you lost your tongue
You lost me
Deaf in my ear
Nothing you can say is gonna change the way I feel

Ok I get it
Ok I see
You were fronting because
You knew you find yourself vulnerable around me

Ok I get it
Ok I see
I step too close to your boundaries

You wanted nobody around to see
You feel vulnerable around me

Hey baby
What is love?
It was just a game
We're both playing and we can’t get enough of
We're both playing and we can’t get enough of
We're both playing and we can’t get enough of

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: GOLD LION/YEAH YEAH YEAHS

Gold lion's going to tell me where the light is
Gold lion's going to tell me where the light is
Take our hands out of control
Take our hands out of control
Now tell me what you saw
Tell me what you saw
There was a crowd of seeds
Inside
Outside
I must have done a dozen each
It was the height I grew
The weight
The shell was crushing you
I've been around a few
Tell me what you saw
I'll tell you what too

Gold lion's going to tell me where the light is
Gold lion's going to tell me where the light is
Take our hands out of control
Take our hands out of control

Outside
Inside
This is a moon without a tide
We'll build a fire in your eyes
We'll build a fire
When the colors
Getting brighter
Cold desire
Makes the moon without a tide
Tell me what you saw
I'll tell you what too

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SHE WANTS TO MOVE/N.E.R.D.

Shake it up
Shake it up girl
Shake it up bass
Hey Shake it up
Shake it up

She makes me think of lightning in skies
She's sexy
How else is God supposed to write
She's sexy
Move, she wants to move
But you're hogging her, you're guarding her
She wants to move
She wants to move
But you're hogging her, you're guarding her

Mister! Look at your girl, she loves it
I can see it in her eyes
She hopes this lasts forever

Her off beat dance makes me fantasize
She's sexy
Her ass is a spaceship I want to ride
She's sexy
Move, she wants to move
But you're hogging her, and guarding her
She wants to move
She wants to move
But you're hogging her, you're guarding her

Mister! Look at your girl, she loves it
I can see it in her eyes
She hopes this lasts forever

This is your part girl
This is your part girl
C'mon
Man
But you're hogging her, you're guarding her
Beat it

Mister! Look at your girl, she loves it
I can see it in her eyes
She hopes this lasts forever
Mister! Look at your girl, she loves it
I can see it in her eyes
She hopes this lasts forever

Somebody get us some water in here
Cause it's hot

ALBUM: FLY OR DIE (2005)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: RUN CHICKEN RUN/THE FELICE BROTHERS

I just got in from town
The news is all around
Push has come to shove
At Madam Plum's
The ice's about to break
And the pigs are on the take
And they're marching
To the beat of Madam's drums
The barber he's all smiles
He's from the British Isles
But his razor's sharp as hell
And he knows it well
He's driving to the docks
From an office in the Bronx
He could make your life a living hell

Run chicken run
Don't you lose your sleep
The cat got out of the bag
You better keep your sense
Breathe chicken breathe
Don't you lose your breath
Chickens don't get no life after death

Down on Baker Street
That's where the women get down
They really move their feet
To the line dance the Cotton Eyed Joe
Virginia Rag and the Zydeco
But the girl I came to see
She runs down Baker Street
With a pipe bomb in the long and windy snow
She's a very sensitive lady
She's always at the breaking point
She's always on her guard
She's the fairest of them all
She loves her Adderall
She's kicking out the windows in your car

Run chicken run
The cat got out of the bag
You better keep your sense
Breathe chicken breathe
Don't you lose your breath
Chickens don't get no life after death

Madeline's mother is all in a panic
Cause her husbands mad and he's a bad mechanic
And he's always sad and manic depressive
And the clothes he wears are torn
Let the brass band play
Let them soothe your blues away
Let the fiddle serenade you
Find a shady place to lay

Run chicken run
Don't you lose your step
The cat got out of the bag
You better keep your sense
Breathe chicken breathe
Don't you loose your breath
Chickens don't get no life after death

ALBUM: YONDER IS THE CLOCK (2009)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THIRTY-THREE/THE SMASHING PUMPKINS

Speak to me in a language I can hear
Humour me before I have to go
Deep in thought I forgive everyone
As the cluttered streets greet me once again
I know I can't be late, supper's waiting on the table
Tomorrow's just an excuse away
So I pull my collar up and face the cold, on my own
The earth laughs beneath my heavy feet
At the blasphemy in my old jangly walk
Steeple guide me to my heart and home
The sun is out and up and down again
I know I'll make it, love can last forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth
And you can make it last, forever you
You can make it last, forever you
And for a moment I lose myself
Wrapped up in the pleasures of the world
I've journeyed here and there and back again
But in the same old haunts I still find my friends
Mysteries not ready to reveal
Sympathies I'm ready to return
I'll make the effort, love can last forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth
Tomorrow's just an excuse
And you can make it last, forever you
You can make it last, forever you

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WHEN ANGER SHOWS/EDITORS

It creeps all over you like a dull ache
Think of all the things your hands could make
It pulls you to the ground like soaking wet gloves
The change in your face when anger shows

In that moment you realise
That something you thought would always be there will die
Like everything else

These thoughts I must not think of
Dreams I cant make sense of
I need you to tell me its ok
These thoughts I must not think of
Dreams I cant make sense of
I need you to tell me its ok

You are a sleeping lion in your bed
I will not wake you
You're the moment
Love has passed
We all must learn to hate you
You're a memory from before
Please don't let me forget you
You're the wolves at my door

In that moment you realise
That something you thought would always be there will die
Like everything else

These thoughts I must not think of
Dreams I cant make sense of
I need you to tell me its ok
These thoughts I must not think of
Dreams I cant make sense of
I need you to tell me its ok

How can you know what things are worth
If your hands won't move to do a days work?
How can you know

These thoughts I must not think of
Dreams I cant make sense of
I need you to tell me its ok
These thoughts I must not think of
Dreams I cant make sense of
I need you to tell me its ok

Now that you got it right
Bring love and it'll make it alright
Bring love and we'll take it tonight
Now that you got it right

Who wants the sinner
Coming 'round for dinner
Who needs effects
Who needs to pay for sex
When they drop the bomb
Who will stay calm
Blood will spill
Who would you kill

Now that I understand this right
Let me take it to the mic
This revolution has just begun

Now that I understand this right
Let me take it to the mic
This revolution has just begun

Walking down the road with my little rude gun
Top of my gun, cock it for fun
Block on ya tongue
Top of my earth
Tip of my birth
Top of my death
Tip of my breast
Top of my chest
Tip of my guess
I like the singles
I got the jingles
Bet you ate Springles
Walking on your road with my little rude gun

Now that I understand this right
Let me take it to the mic
This revolution has just begun

Now that I understand this right
Let me take it to the mic
This revolution has just begun

Stepping on the street with my little rude girl
Tip of my toes
Top of my world
Top of my world
Top of my earth
Top of my rock
Tip of my block
Now that you got it right
Bring love and I'll make it alright
Bring love and we'll take it tonight
Now that you got it right

Now that I understand this right
Let me take it to the mic
This revolution has just begun

She was born in the ghetto outside the Bronx
In the project blocks
Where time stands still
It don't tick, it don't tock
Top of my sun
Tip of my land
Top of my chest
Tip of my breast
Top of my earth
Tip of my rock
Walking on the road with my soul in my hand
Tip of my toes
Top of my span

Now that I understand this right
Let me take it to the mic
This revolution has
Just begun

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: EVERYTHING COUNTS/DEPECHE MODE

The handshake
Seals the contract
From the contract
There's no turning back
The turning point
Of a career
In Korea, being insincere
The holiday
Was fun packed
The contract
Still intact

The grabbing hands
Grab all they can
All for themselves
After all
The grabbing hands
Grab all they can
All for themselves
After all
It's a competitive world
Everything counts in large amounts

The graph
On the wall
Tells the story
Of it all
Picture it now
See just how
The lies and deceit
Gained a little more power
Confidence
Taken in
By a sun tan
And a grin

The grabbing hands
Grab all they can
All for themselves
After all
The grabbing hands
Grab all they can
All for themselves
After all
It's a competitive world
Everything counts in large amounts

The grabbing hands
Grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts

ALBUM: THE SINGLES 81>85 (1998)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SHAKE DOG SHAKE/THE CURE

Wake up in the dark
The aftertaste of anger in the back of my mouth
Spit it on the wall
And cough some more
And scrape my skin with razor blades
And make up in the new blood
And try to look so good
Follow me
Make up in the new blood
And follow me to where the real fun is

As stale and selfish as a sick dog
Spurning sex like an animal of god
I'll tear your red hair by the roots
And hold you blazing
Hold you cherished in the dead electric light
Your face
I'll never see you this way again
I captured it so perfectly
As if I knew you'd disappear away
Shake dog shake

You hit me again
You howl and hit me again
The same sharp pain
Wakes me in the dark
And cuts me from my throat to my pounding heart
My heart
My shaking heart
Shake dog shake

But we slept all night in the virgin's bed
And dreamed of death
And breathed like sick dogs
We slept all night in the virgin's bed
And breathed like death
And dreamed of sick dogs
Shake dog shake

Wake up wake up wake up!
Shake dog shake
Wake up wake up wake up!
Shake dog shake

Wake up in the new blood
Make up in the new blood
Shake up in the new blood
And follow me to where the real fun is

Shake dog shake

ALBUM: THE TOP (1984)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMOND/PINK FLOYD

Remember when you were young
You shone like the sun
Shine on you crazy diamond
Now there's a look in your eyes
Like black holes in the sky
Shine on you crazy diamond
You were caught on the cross fire of childhood and stardom
Blown on the steel breeze
Come on you target for faraway laughter
Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine

You reached for the secret too soon
You cried for the moon
Shine on you crazy diamond
Threatened by shadows at night
And exposed in the light
Shine on you crazy diamond
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision
Rode on the steel breeze
Come on you raver, you seer of visions
Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine

ALBUM: WISH YOU WERE HERE (1975)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: BORN AGAIN/BADLY DRAWN BOY

Maybe there's a reason why I'm born again
There's something rare going on under my skies
You got to chill out, find a reason for your soul again
And judge the miracle by feel, not size
Infinite the reasons why I'm born again
The modern innocents have soul on their side

Try to capture reasons why I'm born again
The more I look at it the less that I find
But I wont bail, they will be a reason for my soul again
Another miracle has seasoned my mind

Maybe there's a reason why I'm born again
There's something real going on under my skies

I'm born again
My soul again
I'm born again
Find my soul again

Born again
Born again
Find my soul again
And I'm born again
My soul again
Born again

ALBUM: HAVE YOU FED THE FISH? (2002)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: GHOSTDANCING/SIMPLE MINDS

Cities, buildings falling down
Satellites come crashing down
I see them falling out the skies like eagles
All mirrored glass and shattered egos
But in a corner of the world we'd meet
To laugh and drink and plan our sequels
'Cause in the alleyways and bars downtown
They're singing up from here to there can we go
This city comes alive at night, see these city walls are heaving
And if these old city walls should crash
Amid the rubble you'd find us breathing
Come say what you see in me
'Cause boy, I believe in you
Come say what you're seeing
All gone just ghost dancing
Going all the way through

You talk about the Lebanon
You tell me 'bout the Dawn in Eden
You talk about South Africa
I tell you about the Irish children
You say one more Polish Knight could come
And blow away the doors to Freedom
And if Mother Ethiopia could blow away the tears that we see run
Blow them away
Blow, blow away
We Will blow them away
Blow, blow away
Blow, blow away
Blow, blow away

Come say what you see in me
'Cause boy, I believe in you
Come say what you're seeing
They're all gone just ghost dancing
Going all the way through

You know I believe in you
Oh yes I believe, you know I believe in you
You say you believe
I believe, I believe, going all the way through
Come take me back home, come on and take me away
Ghost Dancing

The car pulled up, the girl she jumped in
The boy he wore a medal that was shining from his skin
With the windows pulled up, their radio tuned in
She's hitting from the stars, he's hitting for the moon
She said, one last kiss while you look across the Land
Move it into overdrive and take me by my hand
When the car broke, the rebels saw smoke
And they all went to heaven in a stupid fantasy, go
Take me away

It's all been candy cream
Neatly, smooth and clean forever

The battle seemed so far away
She never felt the pain

Shut it down, increase the pressure

Neatly, smooth and clean forever

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: I'VE GOT YOU UNDER MY SKIN/FRANK SINATRA & BONO

I have got you
Under my skin
I've got you
Deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart
You're really a part of me
I've got you
Under my skin
I have tried so
Not to give in
I have said to myself this affair
Never gonna go so wel
But why should I try to resist
When baby I know so well
That I've got you
Under my skin

I would sacrifice anything
Come what might
For the sake of holding you near
In spite of a warning voice
That comes in the night
And repeats and it shouts in my ear
Don't you know blue eyes
You never can win
Use your mentality
Wake up to reality
But each time I do
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
Cause I've got you
Under my skin

I'd sacrifice anything
Come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice
That comes in the night
And repeats and it shouts in my ear
Don't you know you fool
You never can win
Use your mentality
Wake up to reality
But each time that I do
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop
Before I begin
Cause I've got you
Under my skin
And I love you
Under my skin

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: ROCK ME AMADEUS/FALCO

Er war ein punker
Und er lebte in der großen stadt
Es war Wien, war Vienna
Wo er alles tat
Er hatte schulden denn er trank
Doch ihn liebten alle frauen
Und jede rief:
Come on and rock me Amadeus

Er war superstar
Er war populär
Er war so exaltiert
Because er hatte flair
Er war ein virtuose
War ein rockidol
Und alles rief
Come on and rock me Amadeus

Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Come on and rock me Amadeus

Es war um 1780
Und es war in Wien
No plastic money anymore
Die banken gegen ihn
Woher die schulden kamen
War wohl jedermann bekannt
Er war ein mann der frauen
Frauen liebten seinen punk

Er war superstar
Er war populär
Er war so exaltiert
Because er hatte flair
Er war ein virtuose
War ein rockidol
Und alles rief
Come on and rock me Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus
Come on and rock me Amadeus

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: BLOOD/EDITORS

This wicked city just drags you down
You're with the red lights, your side of town
Don't say it's easy to follow a process
There's nothing harder than keeping a promise

Blood runs through your veins
That's where our similarity ends
Blood runs through our veins
Blood runs through your veins
That's where our similarity ends
Blood runs through our veins

There's nothing believable in being honest
So cover your lies up with another promise

Blood runs through your veins
That's where our similarity ends
Blood runs through our veins
Blood runs through your veins
That's where our similarity ends
Blood runs through our veins

Blood runs through your veins
That's where our similarity ends
Blood runs through our veins

If there's hope in your heart
Did I see it from the start?
If there's hope in your heart

Stinks on me

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: REFLECTION OF THE TELEVISION/THE TWILIGHT SAD

There's people downstairs
I'm more than a fighter you know
There's people downstairs
It wasn't even yours to share
I know you're old
Heavy hand takes hold
Television's too loud
He leaves without a sound
And I know you're old
Heavy hand takes hold

There's people downstairs
I stole it from a letter
Off your tongue it rolled
Sheltered from the weather
You could be so bold
You told me it'd get better
And I know you're old
There's people downstairs
I'm more than a fighter you know

Heavy hand takes hold
And I know you're old
There's people downstairs
There's people downstairs
There's people downstairs
I'm more than a fighter
I'm more than a fighter you know
There's people downstairs
I'm more than a fighter
There's people downstairs
There's people downstairs

ALBUM: FORGET THE NIGHT AHEAD (2009)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HYSTERIA/MUSE

It's bugging me, grating me
And twisting me around
I'm endlessly caving in
And turning inside out

'Cause I want it now
I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
And I'm breaking out
I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control

It's holding me, morphing me
And forcing me to strive
To be endlessly cold within
And dreaming I'm alive

'Cause I want it now
I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
And I'm breaking down
I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control

And I want you now
I want you now
I'll feel my heart implode
And I'm breaking out
Escaping now
Feeling my faith erode

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HIGHER THAN THE STARS/THE PAINS OF BEING PURE AT HEART

Shitfaced, fumbling in a dark place, drinking in the last days
This street looks just like the next street, bumblefuck on repeat
This time you should have stopped but where's the fun?
The outcome, the only friend you ever had is setting off with a rich son

So sure she was like a brother 'til you dropped another
So sure you kept it under covers, until you knew you loved her

Now you can't think straight, because you're not straight
In the back of her mother's car, in the back of her mother's car
No secret's too safe, and how you can't stay
In the back of her mother's car, in the back of her mother's car
Now you can't think straight, because you're not straight
In the back of her mother's car, in the back of her mother's car
No secret's too safe, and how you just can't stay
Higher than the stars

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: A VIEW TO A KILL/DURAN DURAN

Meeting you
With a view to a kill
Face to face in secret places
Feel the chill

Nightfall covers me
But you know the plans I'm making
Still oversea
Could it be the whole world opening wide?
A sacred why
A mystery gaping inside
The weekends why
Until we

Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire
To fatal sounds of broken dreams
Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire

Choice for you
Is the view to a kill
Between the shades
Assassination standing still

The first crystal tears
Fall as snowflakes on your body
First time in years
To drench your skin
With lover's rosy stain
A chance to find the phoenix for the flame
A chance to die
But can we

Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire
To fatal sounds of broken dreams
Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire
When all we see
Is the view to a kill

ALBUM: A VIEW TO A KILL (Soundtrack) (1985)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: MY MATHEMATICAL MIND/SPOON

I wanna change your mind
Said I wanna set it right this time
I'm looking through you
You know who you are
And planning for the apocalypse
Is not considered
Considered cool
I don't suggest it myself
But no I won't sweat

I wanna change your ways
Said I'm gonna get it right one of these days
And I'm looking through you
Riding the brakes
Bringing about the apocalypse
Is not considered
Considered cool
Still you go setting it up
But never give it a thought
Just go setting it up

My mathematical mind can see the breaks
So I'm gonna stop riding the brakes
No, no, no, no more ride the brakes
No more ride, ride the brakes
Instead I'm gonna see mistakes
I'm gonna see mistakes
