LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: RE-WIRED/KASABIAN



Buon 2012 da RYKJVK. Maya permettendo.



Diretto da Thomas Carty

I feel like the time has come
A fearless rescue from everyone
Who made you the master?
The lady caster
I found you looking for a good time
I was out in exile perfecting my style
I knew you wanted a reaction

Hit me harder
I'm getting re-wired
I flip the switch that make you feel electric
Even faster than before
I'm gonna light 'em up with you
I'm gonna light 'em up with you

Try to keep up you scatter brain
She will enter through your vein
Who was your creator?
The one who made you
The flame I need to heat the silver
You'd bring gods to their knees
Pick out the bad seeds
Relieve the generals of theirs duties

Hit me harder
I'm getting re-wired
I flip the switch that make you feel electric
Even faster than before
I'm gonna light 'em up with you
I'm gonna light 'em up with you

Who made you the master?
The Lady caster
I found you looking for a good time
Now this blood and glitter
It tastes so bitter
There's no retreat for I surrender

Hit me harder
I'm getting re-wired
I flip the switch that make you feel electric
Even faster than before
I'm gonna light 'em up with you
I'm gonna light 'em up with you

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: OPEN EYES (Demo)/THE XX





Open eyes, see for me 
Undisguised please help see
It’s enough, it’s too much
No, I lost faith
I found love
Tonight I could lose the fight
But with you by my side
Everything will be alright

Closed my mouth, words fall out
Come and save, words and bout
You can tell if something’s wrong
I’ve been here but I’ve been gone
And the skies
Don’t seem so bright
With you by my side
Everything will be alright

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WAYS TO AN END/MIRRORS





I, I found some warmth in another
And I, I found some grace in a child
Red lights falling around me
And I'm feeling reckless and wild

Because there's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ways to an end here
There's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ways to an end here

Fall, fall for another
Her magic is growing inside
Let's run, let's run for cover
It's easy to hold on to a lie

Because there's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ways to an end here
There's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ways to an end here
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ways to an end here
There's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ways to an end here

Time, time is a number
And mine, mine has cut like a knife
I'm dreaming, dreaming of conquest
Her pale skin praying such on my mind

Because there's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ways to an end here
There's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ways to an end here

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: GATHERING STORIES/JÓNSI



Questa si che è natalizia.



Diretto da Crush Creative

And then I heard you
You made me long for
To be a part of
Something that I can’t see
I let this be
Something that I can’t fear
To be a part of
The story belongs to you

Something you said was
About a pen and a paper
You cannot always write in
Is something you have to do
Gathering stories
The story belongs to you
Say that it's gone
You know that I disappear

Then I hear you
Say that it's gone
You put me into
A radio
You are the radio
You are my
You are my favourite song

Something is growing
On little pieces
And into the moment
So keep from falling

All the stars
All the nights
All the rain
All the bones
All the days
All the sphears
All the stars
All the nights
All the tides
All the rain
All the cheers
All the nights
I keep saying
All the nights
All the stars
Of your life

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: FUNERAL MARCH/TIGER WAVES





When you lie I still want try
You're writing letters in my hand
If you want I still write home
I'll make you on you hand
I would not, I would not believe you
I would not, I would not believe you
I would not, I would not believe you
I would not, I would not believe you

I know that this is not your favourite time
I'll show that this is not your new compathy
I know that this is not your favourite colour
I know that this is not your way to be kind

And when you sign it's in your eyes
You're writing something on my hand
Don't chase away, just let me stay
I'll make myself more tolerable

I know that this is not your favourite time
I'll show that this is not your new compathy
I know that this is not your favourite colour
I know that this is not your way to be kind

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: PELICAN/THE MACCABEES




Diretto da David Wilson

So soon we, so soon we, so soon we, too old to carry
And we knew we, and we knew we, and we knew we only had a little while
In the middle, in the middle, in the middle, just keep ticking over
Before you know it, before you know it, before you know, they pair and pair

To have it all, to have it all, to have it all, and still want more
One thing's for sure, one thing's for sure, one thing's for sure, we’re all getting older
So we take a lover, so we take a lover, so we take a lover, waitin’ in the corner
And before you know it, before you know it, before you know we’re pushing up the daisies

And we’re going back to where we came from
For those we fall and those to come and owe
Is the effort and the more
And again and again and again and again we go

In the end, in the end, in the end, nothing comes easy
So you find a way, so you find a way, so you find a way to take a little with you
For the ones you love, for the ones you love, for the ones you love, are there if they need to
The hero, the hero, the hero
They’re not coming with you

Go back to where we came from
For those we fall and those to come and owe
Is the effort and the more
And again and again and again and again
Go

So soon we, so soon we, so soon we too old to carry
And we knew we, and we knew we, and we knew we only had a little while
In the middle, in the middle, in the middle, just keep ticking over
Before you know it, before you know it, before you know they pair and pair
And go back to where we came from
For those we fall and those to come and owe
Is the effort and the more
And again and again and again and again
Go

THE RYKJVK AWARDS 2011



IL DISCO DELL'ANNO: LET ENGLAND SHAKE/PJ HARVEY


ALL AND EVERYONE

L'ottavo album della musicista del Dorset è un disco che vive di contrasti: testi dolorosi incentrati principalmente sul tema della guerra dispiegati su melodie folk, aritmiche (The Glorious Land, la splendida All And Everyone), a volte quasi scanzonate (The Last Living Rose, The Words That Maketh Murder). Un atto d'accusa e d'amore allo stesso tempo verso la propria terra, e più in generale riguardo i tempi bui che viviamo, con tutta la classe e l'intenstità di Polly Jean Harvey.

I risultati del sondaggio:

1. LET ENGLAND SHAKE/PJ HARVEY (28%)
2. THE KING OF LIMBS/RADIOHEAD (23%)
VELOCIRAPTOR!/KASABIAN (23%)
4. FATHER, SON, HOLY GHOST/GIRLS (9%)
SMOTHER/WILD BEASTS (9%)
WOUNDED RHYMES/LYKKE LI (9%)
7. I AM VERY FAR/OKKERVIL RIVER (1%)
VIOLET CRIES/ESBEN AND THE WITCH (1%)
9. BUILD A ROCKET BOYS!/ELBOW (0%)
HARBORED MANTRAS/WATER BORDERS (0%)
SKYING/THE HORRORS (0%)
THE FUTURE IS MEDIEVAL/KAISER CHIEFS (0%)



LA CANZONE DELL'ANNO: CODEX/RADIOHEAD



Basterebbe quell'attacco con la voce leggermente roca di Thom Yorke per innamorarsi di questo pezzo al primo ascolto, senza contare il giro di pianoforte, semplice ed eterno, ed il testo, una piccola elegia, magnetico e rassicurante.

IL VIDEO DELL'ANNO: LOTUS FLOWER/RADIOHEAD



L'irresistibile danza scomposta di Thom Yorke nel video diretto da Garth Jennings è piaciuta così tanto che in rete sono addirittura spuntati dei tutorial per imparare i passi del balletto. Della serie come essere la più grande band del pianeta e riuscire comunque a prendersi poco sul serio.


LA COPERTINA DELL'ANNO: VELOCIRAPTOR!/KASABIAN (Aitor Throup)



Da un album che si chiama come un dinosauro ci si aspetta una copertina capeggiata da un enorme lucertolone preistorico, ed invece nel progetto grafico ideato dall'illustratore argentino (ma inglese d'adozione) Aitor Throup non c'è traccia di enormi animali estinti. Tuttavia il grido ancestrale che si percepisce dalle figure neanderthaliane ripetute agli angoli dell'immagine riesce perfettamente nell'intento di comunicare la forza primitiva del disco, nonchè la vena psichedelica della musica dei Kasbaian. Un capolavoro.


IL DEBUTTO DELL'ANNO: ANNA CALVI



La minuta artista anglo-italiana fatica a trovare scarpe della sua misura (pare porti addirittura il numero 34) ma non certo consensi, tanto che la stampa specializzata britannica l'ha subito eletta a nuova PJ Harvey, e non è un caso che Nick Cave, che Polly Jean la conosce bene, l'abbia scelta per aprire i concerti dei Grinderman.


IL CONCERTO DELL'ANNO: PRIMAL SCREAM (Auditorium Parco della Musica/Roma) 22/07/11



Già di per sé i Primal Scream che dopo vent'anni suonano dal vivo per intero Screamadelica, disco simbolo degli anni '90, sarebbe un evento. Se poi ci mettiamo che i fan sul finire dello show fanno invasione di campo (pacifica) costringendo alla resa gli uomini della security e regalando ai posteri una versione memorabile di Rocks, la data romana del tour della band scozzese diventa addirittura leggendaria.


LA COLONNA SONORA DELL'ANNO: SUBMARINE/ALEX TURNER



Uscita in punta di piedi, quasi come un prologo del quarto album degli Arctic Monkeys, Suck It And See (tanto che la ballata Piledriver Waltz ci è finita pari pari dentro), la colonna sonora della pellicola indipendente britannica Submarine rivela un Alex Turner più intimista e minimale, ma di certo non meno ispirato della versione leader della band.


IL DISCO ITALIANO DELL'ANNO: WOW/VERDENA





Dopo quasi quattro anni di silenzio, i Verdena tornano con un disco ambizioso, complesso, forse fin troppo lungo, ma di sicuro coraggioso ed intraprendente, impreziosito dal singolo di anticipazione Razzi Arpia Inferno e Fiamme, uno dei pezzi in italiano (seppur non comprensibilissimo) più belli degli ultimi tempi.

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: KILLED BY THE BOOM/THE VEILS





He stared at the skyline with a look of avarice
He smelled the diesel of a passing train
He fell with both hands still in his pockets
Killed by the boom and washed away

Oh no, what a tragedy
Say what you want about him
I say god damn

He wasn't no drug dealer momma
He was a dancer
With the dull eyes of a steer and a lions mane
Bear me no public opinion it never answers
Whatever intuition cannot explain

Oh no, what a tragedy
Say what you want about him
I'll say god damn

No recognition by the state nor senate
No epitaph to sing aloud his sweet name
No fourteen stations and the nineteenth sonnet
Ne weren't no wealthy man but he was a man all the same

Oh no, what a tragedy
Say what you want about him
Oh no, what a fucking tragedy
Say what you want about him
I say god damn
It weren't the rain that killed him
And it weren't his muddy ears
It weren't the rain that killed him
He was killed by the boom
He was killed by the boom

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE SAME THING/CASS McCOMBS





Like a ring
Gone down the drain
Our love in sunlight
At evening pain
Like vermin
Roman sewers bring
Pain and love
Are the same thing
Are the same thing

In my opinion we are the red birth mark
From the old storybook
Equal light, equal dark
Now let’s flip a coin to see now who’s yin and who is yang
It defies opinion whether they’re the same thing

Nothing in common
Our blood thicker than broth
We’re cut from different sides of the same cloth
Our love in sunlight
Our pain at evening
Have nothing in common yet they’re both the same thing
The same thing

The same street
The same address
The same white hair
The same black dress
The same sameness
From opposites cling
Pain and love
Are the same thing
Are the same thing

In my opinion a line is never crossed
Until now I was my inner feelings were always lost
Through spirit or season
Does the human voice does sing?
Death and opinion they are the same thing

Nothing in common
Our blood thicker than broth
We’re cut from different sides of the same cloth
Our love in sunlight
Our pain at evening
Have nothing in common yet they’re both the same thing
The same thing

Nothing in common
Our blood thicker than broth
We’re cut from different sides of the same cloth
Our love in sunlight
Our pain at evening
Have nothing in common yet they’re both the same thing
The same thing

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: KNOTS/LISA HANNIGAN




Diretto da Myles O'Reilly

It was early in the morning
We were sitting on the stoop
There wheeled away a starling
And I thought that I would too
For all I knew
I was lost through and through
In my high heels and my old dress
With my new keys in the wrong city

I tie the knots to remember in my heart
So I choke and I sputter to a stop
I am a borrower and lender of the lot

I walk away asleep
And chalk an outline round the scene
This shadow play of whiskey talk
A heavy denier dream
Let it be
I was lost in him and me
In my high heels and my old dress
With my new keys in the wrong city

I tie the knots to remember in my heart
So I choke and I sputter to a stop
I am a borrower and lender of the lot

In my high heels and my old dress
With my new keys in the wrong city
In my high heels and my old dress
With my new keys in the wrong city
City

I tie the knots to remember in my heart
So I choke and I sputter to a stop
I am a borrower and lender of the lot
I tie the knots to remember in my heart
I tie the knots to remember in my heart
So I choke and I sputter to a stop

Say say my playmate
Won't you lay your hands on me
Mirror my melody
Transfer my tragedy
Got a curse I cannot lift
Shines when the sunset shifts
When the moon is round and full
Gotta bust that box
Gotta gut that fish
We could jet in a stolen car
But I bet we wouldn't get too far
Before the transformation takes
Its bloodlust tanks and
Crave gets slaked

My mind has changed
My body's framed
But god I like it
My heart's aflame
My heart is strained
But god I like it
My mind has changed
My body's framed
But god I like it
My heart's aflame
My heart is strained
But god I like it

Charge me your day rate
I don't let you out in time
When the moon is round and full
Gonna teach you tricks that'll blow your mongrel mind
Baby doll I recognize
You're a hideous thing inside
If ever there were a lucky come
It's you, you, you, you

My mind has changed
My body's framed
But god I like it
My heart's aflame
My heart is strained
But god I like it
My mind has changed
My body's framed
But god I like it
My heart's aflame
My heart is strained
But god I like it
My mind has changed
My body's framed
But god I like it
My heart's aflame
My heart is strained
But god I like it

Dream me oh, dreamer
Down to the floor
Open my hands and let them
Weave onto yours
Feeding on fever
Down on all fours
Show you what all the
howling's for

Wear our scars with pride

And there were parts you missed

They hide in corners behind the pretty girls
In their gold, in their gold, in their gold
One minute to a, one minute to a, one minute to midnight

My soul you can have it 'cause it don't mean shit
I'd sell it to the devil for another hit
And midnight is coming and I wish that you were here

I hear voices, echo in my brain
They don't like it 'cause I'm not dressed the same
They hunt for rabbits just like Yosemite Sam
Say your prayers, say your prayers, say your prayers
One minute to a, one minute to a, one minute to midnight

My soul you can have it 'cause it don't mean shit
I'll sell it to the devil for another hit
And midnight is coming and I wish that you were here
My soul you can have it 'cause it don't mean shit
I'll sell it to the devil for another hit
And midnight is coming and I wish that you were here

There's no need to fall, there's no need at all

Out of control on my own trying to find my way back
How did end up here
And into the darkness I walk as the world goes on by
Out of control on my own trying to find my way back
How did end up here
And into the darkness I walk as the world goes on by

I hear voices they tell me to stop
I hear voices they tell me to stop
I hear voices they tell me to stop
I hear voices they tell me to stop

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: BEDBEDBEDBEDBED/DELETED SCENES





You are an immaculate girl
Sent from above
You are everything that I want, my love
My heart is filling up
I am alive
A raising reattached to the vine, revived

Won't you crawl into my bed, bed, bed, bed, bed, bed?
I will thee wed
You are a miraculous song in my head

We live in difficult times
I fell behind
I did some shit that I can't deny
But you are a merciful girl
You helped me back
You cut my hair and you cut me slack

Won't you crawl into my bed, bed, bed, bed, bed, bed?
I will thee wed
You are a miraculous song in my head

Your eyes do a thing where they talk
You turn me on
I can't always say what I want hold on
I am a tenuous man, eroding sand
You are an impetuous girl
Oh man, amen

Won't you crawl into my bed, bed, bed, bed, bed, bed?

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THIS ISN'T EVERYTHING YOU ARE/SNOW PATROL





You can't find the phone
So you can call it off
But it might be for the best
You can't walk away, anyway
Cause you've nowhere else to go

Don't keel over now
Don't keel over
Don't keel over now
Don't keel over

You've been up all night
And the night before
You've lost count of drinks and time
And your friends keep calling, worried sick
There's strangers everywhere

Don't keel over now
Don't keel over
Don't keel over now
Don't keel over

And in one little moment
It all implodes
This isn't everything you are
Breathe deeply in the silence
No sudden moves
This isn't everything you are
Just take the hand that's offered
And hold on tight
This isn't everything you are
There's joy not far from here, right
I know there is
This isn't everything you are

When you took the call
How could you know
That he'd slipped away last night
And you wish you went home, days ago
To say goodbye or just hello

Don't keel over now
Don't keel over
Don't keel over now
Don't keel over

And in one little moment
It all implodes
This isn't everything you are
Breathe deeply in the silence
No sudden moves
This isn't everything you are
Just take the hand that's offered
And hold on tight
This isn't everything you are
There's joy not far from here, right
I know there is
This isn't everything you are

This isn't everything you are
This isn't everything you are

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: ALL WE EVER WANTED WAS EVERYTHING/MGMT




Diretto da Ned Wenlock

All we ever wanted was everything
All we ever got was cold
Get up, eat jelly
Sandwich bars, and barbed wire
Squash every week into a day

The sound of the drums is calling
The sound of the drum has called
Flash of youth shoot out of darkness
Factory town

Oh, to be the cream

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: TEFLON HEART/CAGED ANIMALS





You brought me to the cinema
Bought me a tarantula
Put them in my camera
And shot my heart
You cure my hypochondria
Blow away insomnia
Try to teach me how to put and make me smile

You got a teflon heart
And nothing sticks to you
You got a teflon heart
I think I want one too
I want one too

I know you know I'm not bushwa
You break like I'm replica
A ghost inside your retina
That only you can see
You took a sit up to you Tobia
Made me watch Magnolia
Told me crazy stories
Partly truth and make-believe

You got a teflon heart
And nothing sticks to you
You got a teflon heart
I think I want one too
I want one too

You got a teflon heart
And nothing sticks to you
You got a teflon heart
I think I want one too
I want one too

Teflon heart
Sticks to you

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SCALE IT BACK/DJ SHADOW FEAT. LITTLE DRAGON




Diretto da Ewan Jones Morris e Casey Raymond

I swear I solve your life
My feet fall over you inside
And I thought I heard someone say
Fly far away
And when you reach up the sky I stay
This clueless I wouldn’t know
We swam in the waves and let it go
Until I heard someone say
Rise and beyond
Where you’re reaching knocked over stars

I dreamt I came from parking movements
Every moment I see with our clothes
Take me to places where we can stop
I dreamt I came from parking movements

Nothing can steal this treasure from us babe
I’m still in love now
Fighting the suns
Thank justice and come closer to me babe
I’m falling out now

I dreamt I came from parking movements
Every moment I see with our clothes
Take me to places where we can stop
I dreamt I came from parking movements

Now
Thank justice and come closer to me babe
I’m falling out

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: FASCINATION STREET/THE CURE





Oh, it's opening time
Down on Fascination Street
So let's cut the conversation
And get out for a bit
Because I feel it all fading
And paling and I'm begging you
To drag you down with me
To kick the last nail in
Yeah, I like you in that
Like I like you to scream
But if you open your mouth
Then I can't be responsible
For quite what goes in
Or to care what comes out
So just pull on your hair
Just pull on your pout
And let's move to the beat
Like we know that it's over
If you slip going under
Slip over my shoulder
So just pull on your face
Just pull on your feet
And let's hit opening time
Down on Fascination Street

So pull on your hair
Pull on your pout
Cut the conversation
Just open your mouth
Pull on your face
Pull on your feet
And let's hit opening time
Down on Fascination Street
Fascination Street
Fascination Street
Fascination Street

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: I THOUGHT I WAS AN ALIEN/SOKO




Diretto da Soko con Spike Jonze

We met one day
When I thought I was an alien
I told you to get a question meant
Dance with me like an alien

You told me that you were not quite a good dancer
I told you that I think it doesn't matter
We were just look dumber than we think we were

And you look at me as I was a freak
But you said you like freaky people
So I thought you might look me a little bit

We met one day
When I thought I was an alien
I told you to get a question meant
Dance with me like an alien
And you did
And you did

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: NEEDLES AND PINS/HOWTH





Needles and pins I feel them sticking in my skin
Needles and pins I feel them sticking in my skin
Is it a sin to outlive your limb?
Now that that part of me is gone I can begin to reimagine who I am

What was part of me is now lying dead on the floor
Heart giving blood to a gift that's giving no more
It makes you wonder what else the body has in store
What once was me is now lying dead on the floor

Needles and pins I feel them sticking in my skin
Needles and pins I feel them sticking in my skin
Is it a sin to outlive your limb?
Now that that part of me is gone I can begin to reimagine who I am

There's nothing in coming out of those nerve endings
I feel a feeling but it's just pretending
My brain ain't getting any message their sending
Now that that part of me is gone I can begin to reimagine who I am

What makes my body, my hands, my feet or my head
Will there be anything no there will not when I'm dead
This isn't a beginning this is only an end
What wakes my body, my hands, my feet or my head

Needles and pins I feel them sticking in my skin
Needles and pins I feel them sticking in my skin
And I will worry when I no longer feel them
Just another part of me that's a ghost limb

You’re invisible but you see everything
You don’t have to look to see what's happening
You’re invisible but you see everything
You don’t have to look to see what's happening
To see what's happening

I want feel the green light
I want feel the green light on my skin
And when the rain comes down and hits us we’ll be dying just to live
I want the green light
I want feel the green light on my skin
And when the rain comes down and hits us we’ll be dying just to live
Dying just to live
Dying just to live

You can see the earth standing by the edge
You didn’t want to take what you didn’t want to give
You’re invisible, your castles in the sand
Now those walls of glass are coming down again
They are coming down again

I want feel the green light
I want feel the green light on my skin
And when the rain comes down and hits us we’ll be dying just to live
I want the green light
I want feel the green light on my skin
And when the rain comes down and hits us we’ll be dying just to live
Dying just to live
Dying just to live

Simple things like you over cold round your beauty
That stay and burning me
Love me hang around even if it’s just some way to have
Some common burn
A common burn

So I spent the night in someone’s house that you crawl in
Oh, simple me that you flare but we haven’t

A common burn
A common burn

Aware of as stealed so many times before
You could so round and head
Everything that you score just don’t come home to say
You better sleep
When you know you’re burning someone

That common burning
That common burning

I never knew much
Enough was enough
The reasons were not always there
But the look in your eyes
Hides that surprise
I would never have counted on this

Well lately
You look around
You're wondering what you're doing
Yeah lately
You look around
You're wondering what you're seeing
What you're doing

The taste of your freedom
Was sweeter than love
'Cause you never had a chance to live
Your blue sky calls
To seduce and bewitch
And give you the wings of your fate

Well lately
You look around
You're wondering what you're doing
Yeah lately
You look around
You're wondering what you're seeing
What you're doing

I never knew much
Enough was enough
The reasons were not always there
But the look in your eyes
Hides that surprise
I would never have counted on this

Well lately

You're wondering what you're doing
Yeah lately

Put on your ten-pint bowlers
Bring out your weeping weeds

Gather the screws and spades
Oil up your mud-brown slicker
Gather the screws and spades
We're burying Davy
We're burying Davy

Who'll plane the old pine boughs?
Who'll set his legs uncrooked?
Who'll plane the old pine boughs?
For burying Davy
For burying Davy

Brother grew unruly
Mother wept no tears
At burying Davy
At burying Davy

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: LESSON NO. 7/CLOCK OPERA





You crouch like a hunter
Seconds from a kill
But still an empty vessel impossible to fill
One fold in the future
One fold in the past
Shitting on present and you lashed to the last

Believe and seeing up all thoughts move on
And once I believe in you
One rule for the weak and one rule for the strong
But neither has nothing to loose

I wanna be persuaded
I wanna be talked down
I wanna be one looked
I want to be rub around
But you only talk in capitals
Come, come really interested
Lesson no. 7 is the right one to you

Believe and see it I pull faster on
And once I believed in you
One rule for the weak and one rule for the strong
Neither has nothing to loose

Every part of the heartbeat
Is a closing of the dawn
They came on a blood flowing
It can’t come back anymore
Hear the people calling
Calling out for you
A bliss just have been after
And it wanna calling you

Believe and see it I pull faster on
And once I believed in you
One rule for the weak and one rule for the strong
Neither has nothing to loose

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: LA FEE VERTE/KASABIAN





Old green fairy what you’ve done to me
I see Lucy in the sky telling me I’m high
I went out for some milk three days ago
I met Dalí in the street
He knocked me off my feet

Now I start to see that all’s not well
There’s policemen in my bed telling me I’m dead
If only I could show them what I’ve seen
I’ll have to take you down below
Where insects run the show

Sound and vision turning inside out
The lines make you look older then you’re gone

And everyday I got someone bringing me down
I got the eyes of a madman
I’m chasing round
How does it feel to live your life where nothing is real?
So just send me down the river

The neighbours say that I need locking up
Well it wouldn’t be a first to want me in a hearse
No one sleeps for I am still awake
Pass me over la fée verte
I’ll give you all a scare

Dogs in handbags, everyone’s a star
You look behind your eyelids then you’re gone

And everyday I got someone bringing me down
I got the eyes of a madman
I’m chasing round
How does it feel to live your life where nothing is real?
So just send me down the river

I’m not gonna wait for tomorrow
I just look back and wait for a sign
And I’m not gonna celebrate my freedom
So just send me down the river

And everyday I got someone bringing me down
I got the eyes of a madman, I’m chasing round
How does it feel to live your life where nothing is real?
So just send me down the river

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HEARTLINES/FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE





Oh, the river
Oh, the river it’s running free
Oh the joy
Oh the joy it brings to me
But I know it’ll have to drown me
Before it can breathe easy
And I’ve seen it in the flights of birds
I’ve seen it in you
The entrails of the animals
The blood running through
But in order to get to the heart
I think sometimes you'll have to cut through
But you can’t

(We will carry)
(We will carry you there)

Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
Keep it up
I know you can
Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
'Cause I am

On the sea
On the sea and land over land
Creeping and crawling like the sea over sand
Still I follow heartlines on your head
And this fantasy, this fallacy, this tumbling stone
Echoes of a city that’s long overgrown
Your heart is the only place that I call home
Can I be returned?

You can
(We will carry)
We can
(We will carry you there)
I know you can

Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
Keep it up
I know you can
Just keep following
The heartlines on your head

What a thing to do
What a thing to choose
But know, in some way I’m there with you
Up against the wall on a wednesday afternoon

Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
Keep it up
I know you can
Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
'Cause I am
