LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SUCCESS/INTERPOL

Dreams of long life
What safety can you find
See the great unknown
That's shade for miles
Good eye
I'm a good guy

Dreams of long life
What safety can you find
If the sea was that strong
Maybe we had
Maybe we had to fly
Was a good try
I'm a good guy

As high as the day
I read the papers
Before crime will pay
I'll learn to bury most things

I have succeeded
I won't compete for long
I'm not supposed to show you
I've got two secrets
But I only told you one

Dreams of long life
What safety can you buy
If the sea was that strong
Maybe we had
Maybe we had to fly
Somebody make me say no, no
Somebody make me say no, no
Somebody make me say no, no
Somebody make me say no, no, no, yes

I have succeeded
I won't compete for long
I'm not supposed to show you
I've got two secrets
But I only told you one

I'm not supposed to show you
I'm not supposed to
I'm not supposed to show you
I'm not supposed to

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: MORNING MR MAGPIE/RADIOHEAD

La prima versione di Morning Mr Magpie del 2002, quando neanche gli stessi Radiohead pensavano che sarebbe finita su un disco intitolato The King Of Limbs.




You know you should
But you don’t
You know you should
But you don’t
You got some nerve coming here
You got some nerve coming here

Good morning Mr Magpie
How are we today?
Now you’ve stolen all the magic
Took my melody

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE STARS CAME OUT ONCE THE LIGHTS WENT OUT/THE VEILS

I'm caught between the pen and the page
Lost in the remains of the age
Daddy when you were young was it all this strange?
Fear's inching up the ridge of my spine
The talking clock reminded me
I've never felt all myself and I don't know why

I can't seem to get to grips with it
I almost touched my fingertips to it
Why oh my, oh my?
Then the stars came out once the lights went out
And I could not speak so I had to shout
And then the moon passed sadly by

The joys are few and far between
I've got the Doomsday app on my iPhone screen
Honey I've seen the truth and it's worth than it seemed
Sins derived and sins original
Lies eclipsed and lies made visible
I'm turning my back on the world and fixing my eyes on the sky

I can't seem to get to grips with it
I almost touched my fingertips to it
Why oh my, oh my?
Then the stars came out once the lights went out
And I could not speak so I had to shout
And then the moon passed sadly by

Love, will I see you again?
'Cause I could do with some mending
Love, will I see you again?
'Cause I'm through with pretending
Will I see you again?
'Cause I could do with some mending
Will I see you again?

ALBUM: TROUBLES OF THE BRAIN EP (2011)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: AUSTRALIA/AMANDA PALMER

I could do the dishes while talking on the phone
I could ask you for an answer but you want to be alone
I can never do the dishes a single dish at a time
It's too much of a commitment so I lie my mouth and fire

I could calamine your insides
I could wind them all around me I could
I could tiptoe on a tightrope made of fear and looking down see
All the people do they see me I can wave or I can carry
All the dishes I'm holding that is keeping me steady

Or I could go to Australia
And carry a bowie knife
And wear my hair like Hepburn parted on the side
And learn card tricks and buy
Everyone drinks and take boxing and write
Songs about my bowie knife
I could do these dishes
I could try to do these dishes
Time to decide

I could make a cake
My kitchen is small but I could clear the space
I could write my name
'Cause practice makes perfect yes that's what they say
I could make a button out of plaster
That said finished I could nail it in my closet
To the left side of the lightswitch
I could walk down to a Colombus and try drinking to forget it
But then come home less afraid and then press it and press it

Or I could go to Australia
Carry a bowie knife
And wear my hair like Hepburn parted on the side
And learn card tricks and buy
Everyone drinks and take boxing and try
Eating things only with chopsticks and write
Songs about my bowie knife
I could do these dishes
I could try to do these dishes
I could sigh to do these dishes
Time to decide
Or I could go to Australia
And carry a bowie knife
And wear my hair like Hepburn parted on the side
And learn card tricks and physics and buy
Everyone drinks and take boxing and try
Eating things only with chopsticks and finally
Be like a person I think you might like

I could do these dishes
I could try to do these dishes
I could decide to do these dishes
I shoud decide to do these dishes
Time to decide
Fuck it
I'm gonna go to Australia
I'm gonna go to Australia
I'm gonna go to Australia

ALBUM: GOES DOWN UNDER (2011)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: ALL DIE YOUNG/SMITH WESTERNS

I wanna grow old before I grow up
I wanna die with my chin up
I don't know if you mean you are the one to love
I don't know if you mean you are the one to love

Heart and soul
Never know
Heart and soul

I wanna shine before I shut up
I wanna die with my chin up
I don't know if you mean you are the one to love
I don't know if you mean you are the one to love

Heart and soul
Never know
Heart and soul
Never know

And I can tell by the look in your eyes
You didn't know the way

All die young
When love is love and when you are young
All die young
When love is love and when you are young
All die young
When love is love and when you are young
All die young
When love is love and when you are young
It takes all my time to be in love with you
It takes all of my time, what do I do?

All die young
When love is love and when you are young
All die young
When love is love and when you are young
All die young
When love is love and when you are young
All die young
When love is love and when you are young

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: PLAY DEAD/BJÖRK

Darling stop confusing me
With your wishful thinking
Hopeful embraces
Don't you understand?
I have to go through this
I belong to here
Where no-one cares and no-one loves
No light, no air to live in
A place called hate
The city of fear

I play dead
It stops the hurting
I play dead
And the hurting stops
It's sometimes just like sleeping
Curling up inside my private tortures
I nestle into pain
Hug suffering
Caress every ache
I play dead
It stops the hurting

ALBUM: DEBUT (1993)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WORLD IN MY EYES/DEPECHE MODE

Let me take you on a trip
Around the world and back
And you won't have to move
You just sit still
Now let your mind do the walking
And let my body do the talking
Let me show you the world in my eyes

I'll take you to the highest mountain
To the depths of the deepest sea
And we won't need a map, believe me
Now let my body do the moving
And let my hands do the soothing
Let me show you the world in my eyes

That's all there is
Nothing more than you can feel now
That's all there is

Let me put you on a ship
On a long, long trip
Your lips close to my lips
All the islands in the ocean
All the heavens in the motion
Let me show you the world in my eyes

That's all there is
Nothing more than you can touch now
That's all there is

Let me show you the world in my eyes

ALBUM: VIOLATOR (1990)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: IT'S EASIER/ JOHN GRANT

I don't know who I thought I was
I guess I tried to love you
Because I thought I could afford
To take the risk and take a chance
I do not know who I thought I was fooling
I must have felt invincible in your arms
Like I could take the whole world on

But it's easier for me to believe that you are lying to me
When you say you love me
And when you say you need me
Yes it's easier for me to walk away and get on with my life
If I believe that you're deceiving me
If I believe that you'd be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day

I wish that I could make you see
But clearly that is not to be
'Cause you will not be swayed by me
You've made it clear, you must be free
I would have sacrificed for you
I would have been so loyal and so true
But gifts this precious can't be offered up by fools

And it's easier for me to believe that you are lying to me
When you say you love me
And when you say you need me
Yes it's easier for me to walk away and get on with my life
If I believe that you're deceiving me
If I believe that you'd be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day

What's done is done
I cannot change the way I feel
And what's more I am certain that I don't regret a single thing

But sometimes I really miss your sweet sweet love
And wish that I'd wake up and this would all be just a dream

Yes it's easier for me to believe that you are lying to me
When you say you love me
And when you say you need me
Yes it's easier for me to walk away and get on with my life
If I believe that you're deceiving me
If I believe that you'd be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day

Dreams of long life
What safety can you find
See the great unknown
That's shade for miles
Good eye
I'm a good guy

Dreams of long life
What safety can you find
If the sea was that strong
Maybe we had
Maybe we had to fly
Was a good try
I'm a good guy

As high as the day

Before crime will pay
I'll learn to bury most beliefs

I have succeeded
I won't compete for long
I'm not supposed to show you
I've got two secrets
But I only told you one

Dreams of long life
What safety can you buy

I'm not supposed to show you
I'm not supposed to

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: ASK FOR ANSWERS/PLACEBO

Time to pass you to the test
Hanging on my lover's breath
Always coming second best
Pictures of my lover's chest

Get through this night
Ghere are no second chances
This time I might
To ask the sea for answers

Always falling to the floor
Softer than it was before
Dog boy, media whore
It's who the hell you take me for

Give up this fight
There are no second chances
This time I might
To ask the sea for answers

These bonds are shackle free
Wrapped in lust and lunacy
Tiny touch of jealousy
These bonds are shackle free

Get through this night
There are no second chances
This time I might
To ask the sea for answers
These bonds are shackle free
These bonds are shackle free
These bonds are shackle free
These bonds are shackle free

Get through this
There aere are no second chances
This time
To ask the sea for answers

Oh, no
You say goodbye and I say hello

Hello, hello
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello
Hello, hello
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello
Hello
