LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: AEON/ANTHONY AND THE JOHNSONS





Aeon
My baby boy
Aeon will take care of me
All the stars, your eyes
Raining just for me
Aeon will set me free
Aeon
My baby boy
Aeon will repair me
Aeon eyes alloyed
His heart enjoyed
Carry me through the olden void
Aeon
His arms are warm
Aeon was never born
Aeon’s eyes forlorn
He contains the storm
He’s the pasture of my dawn
Aeon
Love my father
For my father is myself
Love that man
For it's myself
Without him I wouldn’t exist
Without him I wouldn’t exist
Aeon
My baby boy
Aeon will take care of me
Hold that man
In your tender clutch
Hold that man I love so much
Hold that man I love so much
Aeon

Tell me you've not cut the chord of life on me
Let's do something differently
Let's take our power back
Let's take our power back
It doesn't have to be this way
It doesn't have to be this way
Oh, no
We don't know nothing
Nothing but this world
On, no, no, no, no
Aeon
My baby boy
Aeon will take care of me

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: GHOST PRESSURE/WOLF PARADE





Baby I just don't understand
Make me feel like another man
And I kissed you there on Orchard Road

Pulled the car from the empty street
Empty room and empty sea
I know they're dancing there invisibly

Little vision come shake me up, shake me up
Little vision come shake me up, shake me up
Little vision come shake me up, shake me up
Little vision come shake me up, shake me up

Said your heart was a swarm of bees
And they don't and they will never leave
I hear them buzzing there invisibly

And now it's just you and me
Well I could do a little mystery
And you just had to know

Little vision come shake me up, shake me up
Little vision come shake me up, shake me up
Little vision come shake me up, shake me up
Little vision come shake me up, shake me up
Little vision come shake me up, shake me up
Little vision come shake me up, shake me up
Little vision come shake me up, shake me up
Little vision come shake me up, shake me up

A little vision come, come and shake me up
A little vision come, come and shake me up
A little vision come, come and shake me up
A little vision come, come and shake me up
Ghost Pressure come shake me up, shake me up
Ghost Pressure come shake me up, shake me up
Ghost Pressure come shake me up, shake me up
Ghost Pressure come shake me up, shake me up

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: DISNEY TIME/JARVIS COCKER





How come they're called adult movies
When the only thing they show
Is people making babies
Filmed up close?
I'm feeling so much better
Since I learned to avert my eyes
Now it's Disney time

Not in front of the children
Fill their head with dreams
And hope to be like Bambi's mother
And die off-screen
So you can tell your children
That everything's gonna be just fine
Here in Disney time

At easter and christmas
They granted us a view
Of a world so much better
Than the one we knew
Everyone can share the magic
For 30 minutes at a time
Here in Disney time
Here in Disney time
Here in Disney time
Here in Disney time

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: NOT IN LOVE/CRYSTAL CASTLES FEAT. ROBERT SMITH





I saw your picture hangin' on the back of my door
Won't give you my heart
No one lives there anymore
And we were lovers
Now we can't be friends
Fascination ends
Here we go again
Cause it's cold outside, when you coming home
Cause it's hot inside, isn't that enough

I'm not in love
I'm not in love
I'm not in love
I'm not in love

Could it be that time has taken it's toll
Won't take you so far, I am in control
And we were lovers
Now we can't be friends
Fascination ends
Here we go again
Cause it's cold outside, when you coming home
Cause it's hot inside, isn't that enough

I'm not in love
I'm not in love
I'm not in love
I'm not in love
I'm not in love
I'm not in love
I'm not in love
I'm not in love

Now we can't be friends
Fascination ends
Here we go again
Cause it's cold outside, when you coming home
Cause it's hot inside, isn't that enough

I'm not in love
I'm not in love
I'm not in love
I'm not in love
We are not in love
We are not in love
We are not in love
We are not in love
We are not in love

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: ALL I WANT IS YOU/U2




Video diretto da MEIERT AVIS

You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want
Your story to remain untold
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You say you'll give me
A highway with no one on it
Treasure just to look upon it
All the riches in the night
You say you'll give me
Eyes in a moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You say you want
Your love to work out right
To last with me through the night
You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold
All the promises we break
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You
All I want is you
All I want is you
All I want is you

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: LASCIAMI LECCARE L'ADRENALINA/AFTERHOURS





Forse non è proprio legale sai
Ma sei bella vestita di lividi
M'incoraggi ad annullare i miei limiti
Le tue lacrime in fondo ai miei brividi

Lasciami leccare l'adrenalina
Lasciami leccare l'adrenalina
Lasciami leccare l'adrenalina
Lasciami leccare l'adrenalina

Voglio cercare la mia alternativa
E la mia alternativa
È la scossa più forte che ho
È la scossa più forte che ho

Muovo le molecole immobili
Sei più bella vestita di lividi
Lasciami leccare più forte un po'
Le tue lacrime in fondo ai miei brividi

Lasciami leccare l'adrenalina
Lasciami leccare l'adrenalina
Lasciami leccare l'adrenalina
Lasciami leccare l'adrenalina

Voglio cercare la mia alternativa

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: MISTAKEN FOR STRANGERS/THE NATIONAL





You have to do it running but you do everything that they ask you to
'Cause you don't mind seeing yourself in a picture as long as you look faraway
As long as you look removed
Showered and blue-blazered
Fill yourself with quarters
Fhowered and blue-blazered
Fill yourself with quarters

You get mistaken for strangers by your own friends
When you pass them at night under the silvery, silvery city bank lights
Arm in arm in arm and eyes and eyes glazing under
You wouldn't want an angel watching over
Surprise, surprise they wouldn't wannna watch
Another uninnocent, elegant fall into the unmagnificent lives of adults

Make up something to believe in your heart of hearts
So you have something to wear on your sleeve of sleeves
So you swear you just saw a feathery woman
Carry a blindfolded man through the trees
Showered and blue-blazered
Fill yourself with quarters
Fhowered and blue-blazered
Fill yourself with quarters

You get mistaken for strangers by your own friends
When you pass them at night under the silvery, silvery city bank lights
Arm in arm in arm and eyes and eyes glazing under
You wouldn't want an angel watching over
Surprise, surprise they wouldn't wannna watch
Another uninnocent, elegant fall into the unmagnificent lives of adults
You get mistaken for strangers by your own friends
When you pass them at night under the silvery, silvery city bank lights
Arm in arm in arm and eyes and eyes glazing under
You wouldn't want an angel watching over
Surprise, surprise they wouldn't wannna watch
Another uninnocent, elegant fall into the unmagnificent lives of adults

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE CHEMICALS BETWEEN US/BUSH





I want you to remember
A love so full it could send us all ways
I want you to surrender
All my feelings rose today
And I want you to remain
The power of children can amaze
I'll try not to complain
I know that's a pisser baby

The chemicals between us
The walls that lie between us
Lie in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonlier state
Lie in this bed

I want you to remember
Everything you said
Every driven word
Like a hammer
Hell to my head

The chemicals between us
The walls that lie between us
Then lie in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonlier face
Lie in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
Lie in this bed

We are the hollow men
We are the naked ones
We never meant you harm
Never meant you wrong
I'd like to thank
All of my lovers

The chemicals between us
The army of achievers
Lie in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonlier state
Lie in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
Chemicals

The chemicals between us

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WHERE DID ALL THE LOVE GO?/KASABIAN





Ever took a punch
In the ribcage sonny
Never met a soul
Who had no shrine
Keep this all in your mind
And get it inside my window
What do we become
Trying to kill each other
You’re faking it son
Gonna get you tonight
I suck another breath
To the hearts of the revolution
'Cause you still ain’t right

Where did all the love go?
I don’t know, I don’t know
'Cause you can't see it
Where did all the love go?
I don’t know, I don’t know
I bet you can't see it

Gotta see the signs
Of a real change a coming
Take another sip
From this hobo’s wine
Get yourself a million miles
From this concrete jungle
This is a time
Full of fear full of anger
A heroe’s exchange for a telephone line
Whatever happened to the youth of this generation?
Because it still ain’t right

Where did all the love go?
I don’t know, I don’t know
I bet you can't see it
Where did all the love go?
Well, I don’t know why
Oh, why

The rivers on the pavement
Are flowing now with blood
The children of the future
Are drowning in the flood

Where did all the love go?
Well, I don’t know why
Oh, why

In this social chaos
There’s violence in the air
Gotta keep your wits about you
Be careful not to stare

Where did all the love go?
I don’t know, I don’t know
Because you don't see it
Where did all the love go?
Well, I don’t know why
Oh, why
I bet you can't see it

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: 2+2=5/RADIOHEAD





Are you such a dreamer?
To put the world to rights
I'll stay home forever
Where two and two always makes up five
I'll lay down the tracks
Sandbag and hide
January has april showers
And two and two always makes up five

It's the devil's way now
There is no way out
You can scream and you can shout
It is too late now
Because

You have not been paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
You have not been paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
You have not been paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
You have not been paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention

I try to sing along
I get it all wrong
'Cause I'm not
'Cause I'm not
I swat 'em like flies but
Like flies the burgers
Keep coming back
Not
Maybe not
All hail to the thief
All hail to the thief
But I'm not
But I'm not
But I'm not
But I'm not
Don't question my authority
Or put me in the dock
'Cause I'm not
'Cause I'm not
Go and tell the king
That the sky is falling in
When it's not
When it's not
When it's not
Maybe not
Maybe not

You're like me
We're both alone
What's the problem
I don't know
With the same high
The same eyes
But you can't borrow my clothes all the time

Bad things
Dead things
Sad things have to happen
Sometimes

I let the snow
Melt in my mouth
Until my head hurts
Until I'm out
Makes me laugh a bit
Makes me cry
Same way you confuse me all the time

Bad things
Dead things
Sad things have to happen

Bad things
Dead things
Sad things have to happen
Bad things
Dead things
Sad things have to happen
Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE RACING RATS/EDITORS





When the time comes
You're no longer here
Fall down to my knees
Begin my nightmare
Words spill from my drunken mouth
I just can't keep them all in
I keep up with the racing rats
and do my best to win

Slow down little one
You can't keep running away
You musn't go outside yet
It's not your time to play
Standing at the edge of your town
With the skyline in your eyes
Reaching up to god
The sun says its goodbye

If a plane were to fall from the sky
How big a hole would it leave
In the surface of the earth

Let's pretend we never met
Let's pretend we're on our own
We'll live different lives
Until our cover's blown
I push my hands up to the sky
Shade my eyes from the sun
As the dust settles around me
Suddenly night time has begun

If a plane were to fall from the sky
How big a hole would it leave
In the surface of the earth
The surface of the earth

Come on now
You knew you were lost
But you carried on anyway
Come on now
You knew you had no time
But you let the day drift away

If a plane were to fall from the sky
How big a hole would it leave
And if a plane were to fall from the sky
How big a hole would it make
In the surface of the earth
The surface of the earth
The surface of the earth

I was crying over you
I am smiling
I think of you
Where your garden have no walls
Breathe in the air if you care
You compare, don't say farewell

Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear that your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear that your love's for me

I was crying over you
I am smiling
I think of you
Misty morning and water falls
Breathe in the air if you care
You compare, don't say farewell

Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear your love's for me

Virtuous sensibility
Escape velocity

Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear your love's for me
Breathe in the air if you care
You compare, don't say farewell
Nothing

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SIGNS/BLOC PARTY





Two ravens in the old oak tree
One for you and one for me
Bluebells in the late december
I see signs now all the time
The last time we slept together
There was something that was not there
You never wanted to alarm me
But I’m the one that’s drowning now

I could sleep forever these days
'Cause in my dreams I see you again
But this time fleshed out fuller face
In your confirmation dress
It was so like you to visit me to
Let me know you were ok
It was so like you visit me
Always worrying about someone else

At your funeral I was so upset
So upset
In your life you were larger than this
Statuesque

I see signs now all the time
That your not dead your sleeping
I believe in anything
That brings you back home to me
I see signs now all the time
That your not dead your sleeping
I believe in anything
That brings you back home to me

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: FOLLOW THE COPS BACK HOME/PLACEBO





The call to arms was never true
Time to imbibe here’s to you
I’ll tell you stories bruised and blue
Of drum machines and landslides
Just one more round before we’re through
More psychedelic yuppie flu
It’s such a silly thing to do
Now we’re stuck on rewind

Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
And rob their houses

The call to arms was never true
Let’s take a ride and push it through
Suspended animation glue
Blame it on apartheid
Let’s spend the night in Jimmy shoes
I’ll give you coats and cheap shampoo
I’ll give you nothing else to do
Now we’re stuck on rewind

Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
And rob their houses
Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
and rob their houses

The call to arms was never true
I’m medicated, how are you?
Let’s take a dive, swim right through
Sophisticated points of view

Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
And rob their houses
Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
And rob their houses

As much as yours are
And though my head my hands my heart are forming
They still feel worlds apart

Berenice
Beneath it all you're golden
And that's all I´m feeding on
And though my head my hands are growing colder
We move circles now

Berenice there's no release at all
That's not worth dying for

Berenice
My hands my feet are worn
As much as yours are

Berenice there's no release at all
That's not worth dying for
And it's not for our desires but our design
That we all fall apart

Berenice there's no release at all
It's worthless crying for
And I'm on my knees and on my knees and down
'Cause we all fall down

Speak to me of universal laws
The whores hustle and the hustlers whore
All around me people bleed
Speak to me your song of greed

Speak to me of your inner charm
Of how you'll keep me safe from harm
I don't think so, I don't see
Speak to me of your inner peace

Little people at the amusement park
City people in the dark
Speak to us, send us a sign
Tell us something to keep us trying

The whores hustle and the hustlers whore
Too many people out of love
The whores hustler and the hustlers whore
This city's ripped right to the core

Speak to me of heroin and speed
Of genocide and suicide, of syphilis and greed
Speak to me the language of love
The language of violence
The language of the heart
This isn't the first time I've asked for money or love
Heaven and earth don't ever mean enough
Speak to me of heroin and speed
Just give me something I can believe

The whores hustle and the hustlers whore
Too many people out of love
The whores hustler and the hustlers whore
This city's ripped right to the core

All the stars may shine bright
All the clouds may be white
But when you smile
How I feel so good
That I can hardly wait
To hold you
Enfold you
Never enough
Render your heart to me

All mine
You have to be

From that cloud number nine
Danger starts the sharp incline
And such sad regrets
Oh as those starry skies
As they swiftly fall
Make no mistake
You shan't escape
Tethered and tied
There's nowhere to hide from me

All mine
You have to be

So don't resist
We shall exist
Until the day
Until the day I die

All mine
You have to be

Told me how I'd lost a friend
He smiled at me, that was the end

And I said
I'm just a killer for your love
I'm just a killer for your love
I'm just a killer for your love
I'm just a killer for your love

Cut my hair off in the road
I tear my coat off, drop my load
Wipe my hands on the grass
'Cos now I know nothing will last

And I said
I'm just a killer for your love
I'm just a killer for your love

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: TAKE YOU ON A CRUISE/INTERPOL





I'm timeless like a broken watch
And make money like Fred Astaire
I see that you've come to resist me
I'm a pitbull in time
The pretence is not what restricts me
It's the circles inside
An anatomy of kisses
And a teacher who tries
And knows how we'll disappear
Would you like to be my missus
And a future with child
You know we can't get back from here
We can get away

Baby won't you try to find me
Baby won't you try to fight
Baby won't you try to find me
Maybe it will be alright

Along the way
Tears drown in the wake of delight
There's nothing like this built today
You'll never see a finer ship in your life
We sail today
Tears drown in the wake of delight
There's nothing like this built today
You'll never see a finer ship
Or see a better tip in your life

I am the scavenger
Between the sheets of union
Lately I can't tell for sure
Whether machines turn anyone
Are you the scavenger?
Between the sheets of union
Lately I can't tell for sure
Whether machines turn anyone

Lady won't you try to find me
Lady there is no need to fight
Lady won't you try to find me
Lady it will be alright

We sail today
Tears drown in in the wake of delight
There's nothing like this built today
You'll never see a finer ship in your life
Along the way
The sea will crowd us with lovers at night
There's nothing like this built today
You'll never see a finer ship
Or receive a better tip in your life

I see that you've come to resist me
I'm a pitbull in time

White goddess, red goddess
Black temptress of the sea, you treat me right
Black goddess, red goddess
White temptress of the sea, you treat me right

All my love is sailing to Norway
All my love we're leaving tonight
All my love is sailing to Norway
All my love we're leaving tonight

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: PRIMITIVE NOTION/NEW ORDER





It doesn't take a lot to confuse me
I'm not aware of the passing of time
And I'd like to say to those who accuse me
Could you do it while you looked in my eye
If you hold on primitive notion
And if you think you'd like to try
You can drink this magic potion
And you can do it 'til the day that you
The day that you die

I've done it before and I'll do it again
A judgement of life that I'll burn 'til the end
How can it be that we're so far apart
I want it to be like it did at the start

I'm doing my best to confound you
Your behaviour is so volatile
Not even a zoo would impound you
Don't look at me with your criticle smile
Well I've been driving in the wrong gear
It's been a long and lonely ride
It's been winter for a whole year
But you couldn't hurt me if you tried

I've done it before and I'll do it again
Charged with a life that'll burn 'til the end
How can it be that we're so far apart
I want it to be like it did at the start

I've done it before and I'll do it again
A judgement of life that I'll burn 'til the end
How can it be that we're so far apart
I want it to be like it did at the start

Enter newborn players and gather
Weight their innocence
Only the brightest shine but not forever
Many lights die
Many tears rain
When those tears run dry
On a mountain madness day
You were just in time
For a foolish deal
For love I sold
I Can't stand another howling day
Inside this empty skin

While the beacons burn I'll say
Await return from so far away

One life with the devil do I play
For so long el diablo is to blame

El diablo, el diablo
Won't you sell me back my soul
El diablo, el diablo
Won't you sell me back my soul

Wedding is on the wind
Does she blow my way
She can dance and she can sing
She will tear your heart away

While the promise burns I'll stay
And you will return from so far away

One life with the devil do I play
For so long el diablo is to blame
One life with the devil do I play
For so long el diablo is to blame
One life but the devil is in my way

I went into the butchers
I said wanted wanted wanted some meat
I said pass me some of that steak over there
It looks so sweet
I lost my heart to a meathook

That butcher man was some lady
You know he really stole my heart
He hung me up on his meathook
A real piece of slaughterhouse art
I lost my heart to a meathook

I got a meathook in my heart
Tearing me all apart
Ripping out my insides
But I just can't get away
I can't leave my meathook

So don't teach me a lesson 'cause I've already learned
The sun will be shining and my children will burn
The heart beats in its cage

I don't want what you want
I don't feel what you feel
See I'm stuck in a city but I belong in a field
We got left, left, left, left, left, left, left
Now it's three in the morning and you're eating alone
The heart beats in its cage

All our friends they're laughing at us
All of those you loved you mistrust
Help me, I'm just not quite myself
Look around there's no one else left

I went to the concert and I fought through the crowd
Guess I got too excited when I thought you were around
He gets left, left, left, left, left, right, left
I am sorry you were thinking I would steal your fire
This heart beats in its cage
The heart beats in its cage

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SO WHY SO SAD/MANIC STREET PREACHERS





Things get clear when I feel free
When whatever's next comes easily
When gentle hands give life to me
When your eyes fill with tiny tears
When I'm this still you are my life
(When I'm this still you are my life)
So at ease in the midnight sky
(So at ease in the midnight sky)
But my insides will look like war
(My insides will look like war)
Paralysed except through my thought

So why so sad
You live and you love
So why so sad
Dependent on above
Searching for the dead sea scrolls
So why, so why so sad

My smile as real as a hyena's
(My smile as real as a hyena's)
Burns an expressway to my skull
(Burns an expressway to my skull)
But I'll stick myself together again
Spirit so low that I no longer pretend

So why so sad
You live and you love
So why so sad
Dependent on above
Searching for the dead sea scrolls
So why, so why so sad
So why, so why so sad

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: LIVING IN ANOTHER WORLD/TALK TALK





Better parted
I see people crying
Truth gets harder
There's no sense in lying

Help me
Find a way from this maze
I can't help myself

When I see tenderness before you left (Forget)
That even breaking up was never meant (Forget)
But only angels look before they tread (Forget)
Living in another world to you
Living in another world to you
Living in another world to you

Better parted
I see people hiding
Speech gets harder
There's no sense in writing

Help me
Find a way from this maze
I can't help myself

When I see tenderness before you left (Forget)
That even breaking up was never meant (Forget)
But only angels look before they tread (Forget)
Living in another world to you
Living in another world to you
Living in another world to you

Help me
Find a way from this maze
I'm living in another world to you
And I can't help myself

Did I see tenderness where you saw hell? (Forget)
Did I see angels in the hand I held? (Forget)
God only knows what kind of tale you'd tell (Forget)
Living in another world to you
Living in another world to you
Living in another world to you

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: LOVE/THE SMASHING PUMPKINS





To my mistakes
To my mistakes of cowardice
She shimmy shakes
The jimmy jakes of consequence
Born of the airs and dues
My airs of madness do declare
That it's ok
It's love

It's what you wanted to see
It's who you wanted to be
For what you needed to need
She'll make it up
Love, love, it's who you know
Love, love, it's who you know
Love, love, it's who you know
Love, love

Machine gun blues
Her vacant rush is so steel
I'm unaware
Lost inside your visions
I got mine too over
I got mine and I got you
'Cause I know you
You're love

It's what you wanted to see
It's who you wanted to be
For what you needed to need
She'll make it up
Love, love, it's who you know
Love, love, it's who you know
Love, love, it's who you know
Love, love
And when I lost my mind
I knew I was in for the long ride

Can I look up to you as you look down on me
Can I feel in to you as you felt in to me
I can't help what you see
I can't help but to be
For what I needed to need
She'll make it
Love, love, it's who you know
Love, love, it's who you know
Love, love, it's who you know
Love, love, it's who you know
Love, love, it's who you know
Love, love

Love solves everything
Love

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: STARTING TO REMEMBER/DURAN DURAN





How to begin?
Do I shed a skin
Now that I am starting to remember
It takes a while
But you find a way to open up the door
Let the demons walk
Now that I am starting to remember
Can't change my world

I was happy ever after
Was it only yesterday
I bought the dream
But I don't sleep no more
Counting the hours
Till the dawn

Now that I am starting to remember
How to love
How to learn
Draw like a child
Run for miles and miles
Now that I am starting to remember
Who I am

Another lonley night ahead for me now
Buried in the darkening day
That lingers on
And drags me down
But you've got to believe
Time will heal
