LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HOPE IS NOT ENOUGH/I LIKE TRAINS





Our star burns bright
As we curse it for the final time
And we forget to breathe
And we regret
The process of our age
Progress, stagnation and decay
And we breathe deep

And as we realise
That hope is not enough
Our game is up
So caught up in the whens and whys
We forget to breathe
Breathe in, breathe out, breathe deep

Well for a year we lived as kings
We had everything that we could ever need
And we slept
We slept soundly in our royal beds
As the walls came crashing down
Around our ears

And as we realise
That hope is not enough
Our game is up
So caught up in the whens and whys
We forget to breathe
As we realise
That hope is not enough
Our game is up
So caught up in the whens and whys
We forget to breathe

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE MAN WHO STOLE A LEOPARD/DURAN DURAN





Do you know where we are?
I'm longing for the dark
Of our nocturnal life
It begins and ends with you
Don't spill my secret

You were once running wild hiding in the morning mist
Game demands I make you mine
I thought that I could resist but the leopard in you
Silently preyed on me

I made my way back home
(Did you follow her?)
I handled her with care
(Were you in control?)
So elegant and sleek
(Were you not afraid?)
I need her to be near
(Does she belong to you?)
Don't spill my secret

You were once running wild hiding in the morning mist
Game demands I make you mine
I thought that I could resist but the leopard in you
Silently preyed on me

Deserted by my friends
(Don't they understand?)
She's so much more than them
(How could they compare?)
So now she's just for me
(No one else can see)
I watch her while she sleeps
(Be sure she dreams of you)
Don't spill my secret

(It's been quite a while)
Since we were last outside
(And do you miss the chase?)
Now that we've both been tamed
(Inside this gilded cage)
Prisoners of our thoughts
(You saved me from myself)
Don't spill my secret
Don't spill my secret

Today a man was taken from his apartment at the New Jersey Shore, and arrested under suspicion of entrapment of a wild animal. Police from forced entry discovered a caged leopard in the building. The fully grown feline was said to be surprisingly domesticated by zoological experts who gave her a thorough examination before preparing her for relocation. A large crowd has gathered outside to watch the beautiful creature, and the giant cage was lowered slowly onto the street by a crane. From here, the leopard was transferred into the back of a truck for it's journey ahead. A startled onlooker said, it's extraordinary to think that any human being could have lived in such close quarters with such a dangerous animal. Police are saying that the captive was simply besotted with the creature, and barely left her side. It's alleged that he hunted her in the wild and expertly forged documents to facilitate her illegal export to the United States of America. The incident has already created much controversy, and is now likely to lead to a major international investigation into the life of the man who stole a leopard.

Turned too nasty now
The dark cell
The pillar of my soul
The last one out of the box
The one who broke this spell

Little by little by hook or by crook
I’m such a tease
And you’re such a flirt
Once you’ve been hurt
You’ve been around enough

Little by little by hook or by crook
Never get noticed
Never get judged
I’m no idiot
I should look

Your clue on hold, snapped up
Crawling with my love
The last one out of the box
The one that broke the seal

Obligation
Complication
Routines and schedules
Drug and kill you
Kill you

Little by little by hook or by crook
Never get noticed
Never get judged
I’m no idiot
I should look

Little by little by hook or by crook
I’m such a tease
And you’re such a flirt

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: ULTRAVIOLET (LIGHT MY WAY)/U2





Sometimes I feel like I don't know
Sometimes I feel like checking out
I wanna get it wrong
Can't always be strong
And love, it won't be long

Oh, sugar, don't you cry
Oh, child, wipe the tears from your eyes
You know I need you to be strong
And the day it is dark, as the night is long
Feel like trash, you make me feel clean
I'm in the black, can't see or be seen

Baby, baby, baby, light my way
Alright now, baby, baby, baby, light my way

You bury your treasure where it can't be found
But your love is like a secret that's been passed around
There is a silence that comes to a house
Where no-one can sleep
I guess it's the price of love
I know it's not cheap

Oh, come on, baby, baby, baby, light my way
Oh, come on, baby, baby, baby, light my way
Ultraviolet
Ultraviolet
Ultraviolet
Ultraviolet
Baby, baby, baby, light my way

I remember when we could sleep on stones
Now we lie together in whispers and moans
When I was all messed up and I heard opera in my head
Your love was a light bulb hanging over my bed

Baby, baby, baby, light my way
Oh, come on, baby, baby, baby, light my way
Ultraviolet
Ultraviolet
Ultraviolet
Ultraviolet
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, light my way

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: TRUST ME/THE STREETS





Trust me
Is the skyline sliced up into pieces and broken steel and mesh
Or is the progress of process that's a natural people quest
Metal and the workings, dark and lurking in my mind
Branded neon red and blue flashes
The view from the flats is nice
I see Alice in Wonderland
I see malice in Sunderland
Mouse to house, I am this land
The were without, it's Thumberland
Smoke to a karma coma
Jamaicans do yard and roamers
Shake Bacardi's and Coke and make me laugh and
Trust me

So much stuff and many people
The future is not evil
The future is not fish and it's simple, it's efficient
Now that things are costing nothing
Is any of it good?
Come and love me, read my nothings
Blogging river floods
Dead plant planted on the window ledge
Shadows dance, glint and blend
Glance slow at the night outside
I'm god in the game
Sound rumbles in 5.1 round some corner to fight with guns
Play god in games but nothing in
Trust me

Dub step, club sweat, come get rubbed red
Play the playlist
Play the playlist
I see Alice in Wonderland
I see malice in Sunderland
House to house, I love this land
The were without, it's Thumberland
Do the wrong thing, joke it right
Span the longings and the fights
For all the oil and the toil
And the spoils of the royals
We are nothing if not nice
We are coughing if we are wise
Roll me up like a leafy spliff
Fuck that, roll me up
And trust me

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: JUMP INTO THE FOG/THE WOMBATS





What a great achievement it was
To get a hotel room this late
I bet they charge by the hour here
The kind of place where you should bring your own UV ray
It's not a big problem with me love
You don’t look that hygienic anyway
I’m only here because
I want to twist the structure of my average day

We feel nothing so jump into the fog
You know that we hit the ground upright
We feel nothing so jump into the fog
I just hope it's your bones that shatter not mine
We feel nothing so jump into the fog
You know that we hit the ground upright
We feel nothing so jump into the fog

What a great achievement it was
To find someone who shirks such little self-restraint
I’m a non-believer but
I believe in these dirty little wicked games
Snakes and ladders abandoned here love
The climb's too rough to slide back down again
I’m only here because
I feel the day deserves a truly sordid end

We feel nothing so jump into the fog
You know that we hit the ground upright
We feel nothing so jump into the fog
I just hope it's your brains that splatter not mine
We feel nothing so jump into the fog
You know that we hit the ground upright
We feel nothing so jump into the fog

I’ve made some bad decisions, I’ll admit that freely
Its just that life tastes sweeter when it's wrapped in debauchery
So drop your map, drop your plans, drop your five step program
Because there's not an ounce of faith in this leap
It's clear you feel nothing so jump into the fog with me

We feel nothing so jump into the fog
You know that we hit the ground upright
We feel nothing so jump into the fog
I just hope it's your brains that splatter not mine
We feel nothing so jump into the fog
You know that we hit the ground upright
We feel nothing so jump into the fog

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WHATEVER HURTS YOU THORUGH THE NIGHT/GLASVEGAS





I see you in the night walking past my house
I wonder if you feel the same as I do
Just like me trapped and bruised and lost and lonely too
You follow the fright of whatever hurts you through the night

I saw you tonight walking past my house
I'm sure you feel the same as I do
Caged and scared black & blue & black & blue
Then comes the fright of whatever hurts you throught the night

If there was a way
With me would you runaway?
If there was a way
Would you let me take you away?
Masterplan our escape route
Run and never back we'd look
We could leave behind your past and mine
The mirrors reflections that shocks in the light
Take my hand we could leave tonight
Whatever hurts you through the night

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE FUNERAL/BAND OF HORSES





I'm coming up only to hold you under
I'm coming up only to show you wrong
And to know you is hard and we wonder
To know you all wrong, we were

Really too late to call
So we wait for morning to wake you
It's all we got
To know me as hardly golden
Is to know me all wrong, they were

At every occasion I'll be ready for a funeral
At every occasion once more is called a funeral
Every occasion I'm ready for the funeral
At every occasion one brilliant day funeral

I'm coming up only to show you down for
I'm coming up only to show you wrong
To the outside, the dead leaves, they all blow 
Before they died had trees to hang their hope

I play at night in your house
I live another life
Pretending to swim

Go so slow

Silence in the empty rooms

I drown at night in your house
Pretending to swim
Pretending to swim

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HEART IN YOUR HEARTBREAK/THE PAINS OF BEING PURE AT HEART





Take a look around when you’re going down
‘Cuz you’ll never feel so high
As when you hid in her arms in the sky
And the world slept
And there’s no use to say just how much it kills
When it still kills all the same
Every thought of her name
Like a hand to an open flame

She was the heart in your heartbreak
She was the miss in your mistake
And no matter what you take
You’re never going to forget
She was the tear in a rainstorm
She was the promise that you would’ve sworn
And no matter what you say
It’s never gonna come back

An ambulance goes by, and you wonder why
It never stops when you want it to
It never stops when you need it to
Take you away
And your friends don’t understand that the world could end
And it would feel no worse than this
Every thought of the look in her eye
Like a cold California sky

She was the heart in your heartbreak
She was the miss in your mistake
And no matter what you take
You’re never going to forget
She was the tear in a rainstorm
She was the promise that you would’ve sworn
And no matter what you say
It’s never gonna come back

And no matter what you pray
It’s never gonna take the pain away
And even if she’d stay you know it’s wrong
And no matter what you pray
It’s never gonna take the pain away
And even if she’d stay you know it’s wrong

She is the heart in your heartbreak
She is the heart in your heartbreak
And no matter what you pray
It’s never gonna take the pain away
And even if she’d stay you know it’s
You know it’s
You know it’s wrong

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: A LACK OF UNDERSTANDING/THE VACCINES





It's only been a year
But it feels like a lifetime here
How's it been for you?
Does it feel like a lifetime too?
What would you do now in light of it all?
I don't regret it in spite of it all
If I can't convince you then nobody can I guess

I've got too much time on my hands
But you don't understand
Or you won't understand

Would I make it right?
Would it make you less uptight?
What would it achieve?
What should I put up my sleeve?
What did you think would come out of it all?
That we'd quit pretending we doubted it all?
Oh you don't make me nervous, hell nobody does these days

I've got too much time on my hands
But you don't understand
Or you won't understand
I've got too much time on my hands
But you don't understand
Or you won't understand

Are you ready, are you ready, are you ready for this?
Should I shake your hand or should I give you a kiss?
Is this everything you always hoped it would be?
We'll see

I've got too much time on my hands
But you don't understand
Or you won't understand
I've got too much time on my hands
But you don't understand
Or you won't understand

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HEAVEN IN MY HANDS/LEVEL 42





I'm going nowhere
Gotta face up to it
Gotta wake up to it
I feel so guilty
Killing time is a sin
There's no way you can win
A dam burst of dreams flow through me
They show me where I could be
Flash point feelings flow
Through my mind moving

From the mountains to the sea
I'll run across this land
Looking out for strength and beauty
A diamond in the sand
And I will chase the four winds over
Trying to understand
And I won't stop until I'm holding
Heaven in my hands

I won't let nobody
Turn me off of the track
Now there's no turning back
Won't let no worries
Turn my head inside out
Now there's no room for doubt
I'm heading for my destiny
And it feels electric to me
Flash point feelings flow
Through my mind

I was lonely going nowhere
Drowning on dry land
I was almost stranded there
A shipwreck on the sand
But now I'll chase the whole world over
Making my demands
And I won't stop until I'm holding
Heaven in my hands

From the mountains to the sea
I'll run across this land
(I'll go with you anywhere)
Looking out for strength and beauty
A diamond in the sand
(And I wolud chase anywhere)
And I will chase the four winds over
Trying to understand
(And nothing can stop me)
And I won't stop until I'm holding
Heaven in my hands

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: MACHU PICCHU/THE STROKES





What if the patience do the test
Open the body on the life for leaves
Living too lonely was a choice
And if it was yours but someone else's voice
Sending everybody to the street
Sending your girlfriend throught the night for cheat
Wearing the jacket, play the meet
See in a letter every more so sweet
And now you fall down

Where's turn the grey
Life in the shame
Violent and cry
The last of USA
Running for the rights
Sleep into the sky
Life is terrifying
The wounds that make you cry

What if the patience do the test
Open the body on the life for leaves
Living too lonely was a choice
And if it was yours in someone else's voice
And now you stick back

Where's turn the grey
Life in the shame
Violent and cry
The last of USA
Running for the rights
Sleep into the sky
Life is terrifying
The wounds that make you cry

Tell us, are you gonna tell us?
And anyone is so jealous
Anybody is so silent

I didn't want to ask you baby
I didn't want you to suffer
And everybody is singing

Why are you waiting?
You're not the one

Life tortured us
And waiting doesn't mind to us
Life could be so truth
Led me for the life we told
And life is a surprise
As we're sit up in the skies
Life is terrifying
As a bitch for you and I

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THINK YOU CAN WAIT/THE NATIONAL





I was drifting, crying
I was looking for an island
I was slipping under
I'll pull the devil down with me one way or another

I'm out of my mind
Think you can wait?
I'm way off the line
Think you can wait?

We've been running a sleepless run
Been away from the baby way too long
We've been holding a good night gone
We've been losing our exits one by one

I'm out of my mind
Think you can wait?
I'm way off the line
Think you can wait?

Did I?
(All I have is all)
Think you can wait?
Did I?
(All I have is all)
Think you can wait?

What I'm thinking is simple
I'll sell apples and ice water at the temple
I won't make trouble
I'll pull the devil down with me one way or another

We've been running a sleepless run
Been away from the baby way too long
We've been holding a good night gone
We've been losing our exits one by one

I'll try
I'll try, but I couldn't be better
(All I have is all)
I'll try, but I couldn't be better
(All I have is all)
I'll try, but I couldn't be better

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: STAY (FARAWAY, SO CLOSE!)/U2




Diretto da WIM WENDERS and MARK NEALE

Green light, Seven Eleven
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
You don't smoke, don't even want to
Hey now, check your change
Dressed up like a car crash
Your wheels are turning but you're upside down
You say when he hits you, you don't mind
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
Hey babe, is that what it is

Red lights, gray morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depends on who's around
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip synch to the talk shows

And if you look, you look through me
And when you talk, you talk at me
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing

If I could stay
Then the night would give you up
Stay and the day would keep its trust
Stay and the night would be enough

Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio
With satelite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans, London, Belfast and Berlin

And if you listen I can't call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout, I'll only hear you

If I could stay
Then the night would give you up
Stay then the day would keep its trust
Stay with the demons you drowned
Stay with the spirit I found
Stay and the night would be enough

Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there's no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground
Just the bang
And the clatter
As an angel
Hits the ground

Diretto da ANTON CORBIJN

Well it's about time
It's beginning to hurt
Time you made up your mind
Just what is it all worth

All my useless advice
All my hanging around
All your cutting down to size
All my bringing you down

Watch the clock on the wall
Feel the slowing of time
Hear a voice in the hall
Echoing in my mind

All your stupid ideals
You've got your head in the clouds
You should see how it feels
With your feet on the ground

Here I stand the accused
With your fist in my face
Feeling tired and bruised
With the bitterest taste

All my useless advice
All my hanging around
All your cutting down to size
All my bringing you down
All your stupid ideals
You've got your head in the clouds
You should see how it feels
With your feet on the ground

Someone said to me
I'm coming to your dream
And speaking to you
I already knew
I found her in an attic
Where dramatically
She leaned into to me
She whispered these lines

Wake and be fine
You still got time
To wake and be fine

Graces me with more
Embraces in the streets
Say help me to stranger
Grab on to me
Carrying their years around
It's all been chasing down as we rot
Here at the same time

Can we wake and be fine
We still got time
To wake and be fine

Feelings on the creek
The killers in the crowd
I'm coming apart
A child in house
Lovers in the sheets
Dreaming lovers
Sweetly turning asleep
Along the same beats
Everybody's crashing
The world is calling around
The cupboard and things
The cat couldn't sleep
Someone said to me
It's just a dream
Why don't you wake up and you'll see
It's fine

An the miles racing over
endless fields of snow
You've already heard
You already know
Rescue car finally
lost their heart
And then they shattered their bones
Died all alone
Ships on broken beach
Pirates sails for water
Hot afternoons
Goodbye and good news
Dreams above ahead
Clouds are hard to crash
Loudly and so
Rocks and go survive

Wake and be fine
You've still got time
To wake and be fine

You can be fine
Be fine
Be fine

I have a drop of leaf window
With cats and broken yards
Sunflowers and paint cans
And stolen shopping carts
And nothing to be proud of
And nothing to regret
All of that to make as yet
All of that to make as yet

I have a single heartbreak
I celebrate and mourn
A single shining sister
And all the tricks of dawn
Asingle yellow duvet
A single switch to flick
But a thousand boxes yet to tick
And a thousand boxes yet to tick

And Jesus is a Rochdale girl
And forty five cds
Got a house that you can smoke in
So all my friends found me
And they found me full of myself
And bloody minded will
And as yet a box to fill
And as yet a box to fill

È per una buona causa.




And so you went could not be found
Another wind in some other town
When no one knows your lover's name
How you rocked your body on the way
That's the way we lose our fucking minds
Or what it means we leave behind
No one knows the longing and the shame
All those sorry
So sorry babes
And so it's over
The winds blows on, on and on

But something whispers from the storm
As we wander through the dark
The hunger of the heart
Something whispers from the storm
As we wander through the dark
The hunger of the heart
And that's the way we lose our minds
All the names we leave behind
Though no one knows how much remains
For all we lost for the blame

The world goes on
Something whispers through the storm
Something whispers from the storm
As we wander through the cold and dark
With the hunger of the lonely heart
And so it's over
The wind blows on
But there are whispers from the storm
As we wander through the lonely dark
With the hunger of our hearts

Something whispers through the storm
Something whispers from the storm
As we wander through the cold and dark
With the hunger of our hearts

Baby blue
This is not the sky that you know
Still you smile
While your jewels and your rings sparkle slow
You wanted to fly
But crashing down you go

Baby blue
Never think of home
It’s a razor blade
It’s a cross for your back
And he lied
When he said he’d come back
You wanted to fly
It seems like a flood a river of blood inside

Want to try but it all tastes too sweet
And every guy is just rewind repeat

Here we are again
Here we are again

All of your gold, all you your smiles
All of your love, all of your whiles
All of you joy, all of your pain
Now it’s all gone you’ve started again
All of you time in bubblegum days
Why do things change
Why don’t they stay the same
All of your hope, all of your heart
All of your heat, all of your dark
Secrets you keep, all to be part
Of the love that you keep
I would just try to
Drag you from deep, wake you from sleep
Bring you back home,
There I would keep you safe

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N./NOAH AND THE WHALE





Lisa likes brandy and the way it hits her lips
She's a rock 'n' roll survivor with pendulum hips
She's got deep brown eyes
That've seen it all
Working at a nightclub that was called The Avenue
The bar men used to call her little Lisa, Loney tunes
She went on almost anyone
From the hard time living 'til the Chelsea days
From when her hair was sweet blonde 'til the day it turned gray
She said

L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
You've got more than money and sense, my friend
You've got heart and you go in your own way
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
What you don't have now will come back again
You've got heart and you go in your own way

Some people wear their history like a map on their face
And Joey was an artist just living out of case
But his best work was his letters home
His standard works of fiction about imaginary success
The chorus girls in neon were his closest things to friends
But to a writer, the truth is no big deal
From the hard time living to the sleepless nights
And the black and blue body from the weekend fights
He'd say

L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
You've got more than money and sense, my friend
You've got heart and you go in your own way
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
What you don't have now will come back again
You've got heart and you go in your own way

On my last night on earth, I won't look to the sky
Just breathe in the air and blink in the light
On my last night on earth, I'll pay a high price
To have no regrets and be done with my life

L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
You've got more than money and sense, my friend
You've got heart and you go in your own way
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
What you don't have now will come back again
You've got heart and you go in your own way
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
You've got more than money and sense, my friend
You've got heart and you go in your own way
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
What you don't have now will come back again
You've got heart and you go in your own way

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: IF I WERE GOING/THE AFGHAN WHIGS





What should I tell her?
She's going to ask
If I ignore it
It gets uncomfortable
She'll want to argue about the past
Still I think she believes me
Every word I say
I think I'm starting to believe it all myself
Go ask the gentlemen who play it
But hate to pay

And 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 heads
It's in our love
Baby, it's in our bed

It holds my arms down
Sits upon my chest
It waves its finger at me every night and day
And it don't rest

And it don't breathe and it don't bleed
It's locked its jaws and now it's swallowing
It's all a lie
It's nearly dead
It's in our hope
Baby, it's in our bed

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SEPARATOR/RADIOHEAD





It’s like I’ve fallen out of bed from a long and vivid dream
The sweetest flowers and fruits were hanging from the trees
Falling off a giant bird that’s been carrying me
It’s like I’ve fallen out of bed from a long and vivid dream
Just exactly as I remember
Every word, every gesture
I’ve my heart in my mouth
It’s like I’ve fallen out of bed from a long and vivid dream
Finally I’m free of all the weight I’ve been carrying

And as that woman blows her cover
In the eye of the beholder
I’m a fish now, out of water
Falling off a giant bird that’s been carrying me

I fell open
I lay under
At the tea parlour
I lost your number
And once it’s over
Hid back under

If you think this is over, then you’re wrong
If you think this is over, then you’re wrong
If you think this is over, then you’re wrong
If you think this is over, then you’re wrong

It’s like I’ve fallen out of bed from a long and vivid dream
Finally I’m free of all the weight I’ve been carrying

When I ask you again
When I ask you again
Wake me up
Wake me up
Wake me up
Wake me up
Wake me up
Wake me up
Wake me up
Wake me up
