LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: PLANET EARTH/DURAN DURAN





Only came outside to watch night fall with the rain
I heard you making patterns rhyme like
Some new romantic looking for the TV sound
I'll see you're right some other time love

Look now, look all around
There's no sign of life
Voices another sound
Can you hear me now?
This is planet earth
You're looking at planet earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
This is planet earth

My head is stuck on something precious let me know
If you're coming down to land is there
Anybody out there trying to get through
My eyes so cloudy I can't see you

Look now, look all around
There's no sign of life
Voices another sound
Can you hear me now?
This is planet earth
You're looking at planet earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
This is planet earth

Look now, look all around
There's no sign of life
Voices another sound
Can you hear me now?
This is planet earth
You're looking at planet earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
This is planet earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
Looking at planet earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
Calling planet earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
This is planet earth

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: EVIDENCE/THE SOFT MOON AND JOHN FOXX AND THE MATHS





This reaction's automatic when I find your face in static
A women on securicam can date the state at 5 am
I lose inside all my objective
Memory can be so selective
Some conclusions unexpected
Every single strength connected

But is this evidence of someone's innocence
How can coincidence create the same event

Open to interpretation
Retrospective fact migration
Previous investigations
Shake the such for levellation
Every picture has a frame and every object has a name
And every subject makes a claim that might have just the final shame and

So is this evidence of someone's innocence

There is another some way hearing underneath the interferences
All the random patterns caring as your face disappearing

But is this evidence of someone's innocence
How can coincidence create the same event
So is this evidence of someone's innocence
How can coincidence create the same event
But is this evidence of someone's innocence

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO #2: RIO/DURAN DURAN



Un amico d'infanzia oggi compie trent'anni, auguri.




Moving on the floor now babe you're a bird of paradise
Cherry ice cream smile I suppose it's very nice
With a step to your left and a flick to the right you catch that mirror way out west
You know you're something special and you look like you're the best

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande

I've seen you on the beach and I've seen you on TV
Two of a billion stars it means so much to me
Like a birthday or a pretty view
But then I'm sure that you know it's just for you

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande

Hey now woo look at that did she nearly run you down
At the end of the drive the lawmen arrive
You make me feel alive, alive, alive
I'll take my chance 'cause luck is on my side or something
I know what you're thinking
I tell you something
I know what you're thinking

Her name is Rio she don't need to understand
And I might find her if I'm looking like I can
Oh Rio, Rio hear them shout across the land
From mountains in the north down to the Rio Grande

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: OPIUM/THE NEW DIVISION





The secrets that you've always told me
I've put them all behind through getting high
The secrets that I never should've known
Are running through my veins into my soul

It just comes in handy for a bad day
All I wanna do is get a little hazed
This just comes in handy for a bad day
This just comes in handy for a bad day

The heroin I take just helps me die
A slower death that keeps my soul alive
My dreams are filled as mystery unfolds
Another hedonistic tended goal

This just comes in handy for a bad day
All I wanna do is get a little hazed
This just comes in handy for a bad day
This just comes in handy for a bad day

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE CHAUFFEUR/DURAN DURAN




Diretto da Ian Emes

Out on the tar plains the glides are moving
All looking for a new place to drive
You sit beside me so newly charming
Sweating dewdrops glisten freshing your side

And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart

Way down the lane away, living for another day
The aphids swarm up in the drifting haze
Swim seagull in the sky towards that hollow western isle
My envied lady holds you fast in her gaze

And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart
And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart

Sing blue silver

And watching lovers part
I feel you smiling
What glass splinters lie so deep in your mind
To tear out from your eyes with a thought to stiffen brooding lies
And I'll only watch you leave me further behind

And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart
And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart

Sing blue silver
Sing, sing blue silver

There's more to this kind of camouflage,
More than just colour and shape.
Who's going now, in to a classiomatic?

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.

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: IN YOUR HOUSE/THE CURE





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

I change the time in your house
The hours I take
Go so slow

I hear no sound in your house
Silence in the empty rooms

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