LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: OBSTACLE 1/INTERPOL

I wish I could eat the salt off your last faded lips
We can cap the old times
Make playing only logical harm
We can cop the old lines
Make playing that nothing else will change
But she can read, she can read, she can read, she can read, she's bad
But she can read, she can read, she can read, she can read, she's bad
She's bad

But it's different now that I'm poor and aging
I'll never see this face again
You go stabbing yourself in the neck

And we can find new ways of living
Make playing only logical harm
And we can top the old times
Clay-making that nothing else will change
But she can read, she can read, she can read, she can read, she's bad
But she can read, she can read, she can read, she can read, she's bad
She's bad

And it's different now that I'm poor and aging
I'll never see this place again
You go stabbing yourself in the neck
It's different now that I'm poor and aging
I'll never see this place again
You go stabbing yourself in the neck

It's in the way that she posed
It's in the things that she puts in my head
Her stories are boring and stuff
She's always calling my bluff
She puts, she puts the weights into my little heart
And she gets in my room and she takes it apart
But she puts the weights into my little heart
I said she puts the weights into my little heart
She packs it away
She packs it away
She packs it away
She packs it away
She packs it away
She packs it away
She packs it away

It's in the way that she walks
Her heaven is never enough
She puts the weights in my heart
She puts, she puts the weights into my little heart

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: PLANET TELEX/RADIOHEAD

You can force it but it will not come
You can taste it but it will not form
You can crush it but it's always here
You can crush it but it's always near
Chasing you home saying

Everything is broken
Everyone is broken

You can force it but it will stay stung
You can crush it as dry as a bone
You can walk it home straight from school
You can kiss it, you can break all the rules
All the rules but still

Everything is broken
Everyone is broken

Everyone is, everyone is broken
Everyone is, everything is broken

Why can't you forget?
Why can't you forget?
Why can't you forget?

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SAY HELLO TO THE ANGELS/INTERPOL

Esattamente dieci anni fa usciva Turn On The Bright Lights degli Interpol.
Come corre il tempo.




I want your silent parts
The parts the birds love
I know there's such a place
I had my back turned
You didn't realize
I'm lonely
You lack the things
To which I relate
But I see no harm
Come wait, come wait, come wait
It's over
One, two, three, do me

When I'm feeling lazy, it's probably because,
I'm saving all my energy to pick up when you move into my airspace
You move into my airspace
And something's coming over me, I see you in the doorway
I can't control the part of me that swells up when you move into my airspace
You move into my airspace

But each night, I bury my love around you
You're linked to my innocence

This is a concept
This is a bracelet
This isn't no intervention
This is a concept
This is a bracelet
This isn't no intervention
This isn't you yet
What you thought was such a conquest
You're hair is so pretty and red
Baby, baby you're really the best

Can I get there this way?
I think so
Can I get there this way?
I think so
Can I get there this way?
Can I get there this way?
Can I get there this way?
Can I get there this way?

We should take a trip now to see new places
I'm sick of this town
I see my face has changed
We should take a trip now to see new places
I'm sick of this town
I see my face has changed

Say hello, say hello
Say hello, say hello to the angels

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?

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: FIGHT/THE CURE

Sometimes there's nothing to feel
Sometimes there's nothing to hold
Sometimes there's no time to run away
Sometimes you just feel so old
The times it hurts when you cry
The times it hurts just to breathe
And then it all seems like there's no-one left
And all you want is to sleep

Fight fight fight
Just push it away
Fight fight fight
Just push until it breaks
Fight fight fight
Don't cry at the pain
Fight fight fight
Or watch yourself burn again
Fight fight fight
Don't howl like a dog
Fight fight
Just fill up the sky
Fight fight fight
Fight til you drop
Fight fight fight
And never, never, never, never, never
Never stop

Fight fight fight
Fight fight fight
Fight fight fight
Fight fight fight

So when the hurting starts
And when the nightmares begin
Remember you can fill up the sky
You don't have to give in
You don't have to give in
Never give in
Never give in
Never give in

ALBUM: KISS ME KISS ME KISS ME (1987)

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

Body movin', body movin'
We be getting down and you know we're crush groovin'

Now let me get some action from the back section
We need body rockin' not perfection
Let your back bone flip but don't slip a disc
And let your spine unwind just take a risk
I wanna do the freak until the break of dawn
Now tell me party people is that so wrong
The ship is docking inter-lockin'
And up-rockin' electro-shocking
We're getting down computer action
Do the robotic satisfaction
Now all of y'all ah get off the wall
Have a ball and get involved with

Body movin', body movin'

Flame on, I'm gone
I'm so sweet like a nice bon bon
Came out rapping when I was born
Mom said rock it 'til the break of dawn
Puttin' bodies in motion 'cause I got the notion
Well like Roy Cormier with the coconut lotion
The sound of the music makin' you insane
You can't explain to people this type of mind frame
And like a bottle of Chateauneuf du Pape
I'm fine like wine when I start to rap
We need body rockin' not perfection
Let me get some action from the back section

Body movin', body movin'
A1 sound and the sound so soothing
Body movin', body movin'
We be getting down and you know we're crush groovin'
Body movin', body movin'

Mike D with the master plan
I said my my and thank you ma'am
And when I grab the mic you scream god damn
The creme de la creme is who I am
MCA where have you been
Packed like sardines in the tin tin
So kick off your shoes and put on your swim fins
'Cause when it comes to quarries I'm known to swim
And Adrock light up the place
And if you pull my card you pull the ace
And if you ask me turn up the bass
And if you play defender I could be your hyper space so

Body movin', body movin'
A1 sound and the sound so soothing
Body movin', body movin'

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT US/PLACEBO

If it's a bad day
You try to suffocate
Another memory scarred
If it's a bad case
Then you accelerate
you're in the getaway car

You don't care about us
You don't care about us
You don't care about us
You don't care about us

If it's a bad case
You're on the rampage
Another memory scarred
You're at the wrong place
You're on the back page
you're in the getaway car

You don't care about us
You don't care about us
You don't care about us
You don't care about us
It's your age, It's my rage
It's your age, It's my rage

You're too complicated
We should separate it
You're just confiscating
You're exasperating
This degeneration
Mental masturbation
Think I'll leave it all behind
Save this bleeding heart of mine
It's a matter of trust
It's a matter of trust
It's a matter of trust
It's a matter of trust
Because

You're too complicated
We should separate it
You're just confiscating
You're exasperating
This degeneration
Mental masturbation
Think I'll leave it all behind
Save this bleeding heart of mine
It's your age, It's my rage
It's your age, It's my rage

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: I BELIEVE/ALL I NEED TO KNOW//DURAN DURAN

The taxman's in the pocketbook
The pressmen are by the bar
And all the world is at your door
It's strange that you should lock it up
And preach an open heart
But you know what they're waiting for

You can turn your face away
And don't think twice
I'm just the ordinary guy you used to know
I'm not after your money
Or even your advice
I believe you'll follow me
It's all I need to know
To walk away

I was tempted by the devil
In his deep blue swimming pool
Until the devil's make up ran
And my future's in the strangle hold
Of ever changing rules
I don't intend to understand

You can stop pretending now
That I had you fooled
I'm still the ordinary guy you used to know
I'm not after your money
To paralyze my soul
I believe you'll follow me
It's all I need to know
Promise me you'll try to understand before I go
And walk away

You can turn your face away
And don't think twice
I'm just the ordinary guy you used to know
I'm not after your money
Or even your advice
I believe you'll follow me
It's all I need to know
Promise me you'll try to understand before I go

All I need to, all I need to, all I need to know
All I need to, all I need to, all I need to know
All I need to, all I need to, all I need to know
All I need to, all I need to, all I need to know

ALBUM: ALL SHE WANTS IS (7" Single) (1988)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SHAKE DOG SHAKE/THE CURE

Wake up in the dark
The after-taste of anger in the back of my mouth
Spit it on the wall
And cough some more
And scratch my skin with razor blades

And make up in the new blood
And try to look so good
Follow me
Make up in the new blood
And follow me to where the real fun is

As stale and selfish as a sick dog
Spurning sex like an animal of god
I'll tear your red hair by the roots
And hold you blazing
Hold you cherished in the dead electric light
Your face
I'll never see you this way again
I captured it so perfectly
As if I knew you'd disappear away

Shake shake shake shake
Shake shake shake shake
Shake dog shake
Shake shake shake shake
Shake shake shake shake
Shake dog shake

You hit me again
You howl and hit me again
The same sharp pain
Cuts me in the dark
And cuts me from my throat to my pounding heart
My heart, my shaking heart

Shake shake
Shake shake shake shake
Shake shake shake shake
Shake dog shake

We slept all night in the virgin's bed
And dreamed of death
And breathed like sick dogs
We slept all night in the virgin's bed
And breathed like death
And dreamed of sick dogs

Shake shake
Shake dog shake
Shake shake
Shake dog shake

Wake up, wake up, wake up
Shake dog shake
Wake up, wake up, wake up
Shake dog shake

Make up in the new blood
Shake up in the new blood
Fake up in this new blood
And follow me to where the real fun is
Shake dog shake
Shake dog shake
Shake dog shake

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: I'VE SEEN IT ALL/BJÖRK FEAT. THOM YORKE

I've seen it all
I have seen the trees
I have seen the willow leaves dancing in the breeze
I've seen a man killed by his best friend
And lives that were over before they were spent
I've seen what I was and I know what I'll be
I've seen it all there is no more to see

You haven't seen elephants, kings or Peru
I'm happy to say I had better to do
What about China? Have you seen the Great Wall?
All walls are great if the roof doesn't fall
The man you will marry, the home you will share
To be honest, I really don't care

You've never been to Niagara Falls?
I have seen water
It's water, that's all
The Eiffel Tower
And the Empire State
My pulse was as high
On my very first date
Your grandson's hand
As he plays with your hair
To be honest, I really don't care

I've seen it all
I've seen the dark
I've seen the brightness in one little spark
I've seen what I choose and I've seen what I need
And that is enough
To want more would be greed
I've seen what I was and I know what I'll be
I've seen it all there is no more to see

You've seen it all and all you have seen
You can always review on your own little screen
The light and the dark the big and the small
Just keep in mind you need no more at all
You've seen what you were and know what you'll be
You've seen it all there is no more to see

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

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: LATELY/INXS

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

This flower is scorched
This film is on
On a maddening loop
These clothes
These clothes don't fit us right
I'm to blame
It's all the same
It's all the same
You come to me with a bone in your hand
You come to me with your hair curled tight
You come to me with positions
You come to me with excuses
Ducked out in a row
You wear me out
You wear me out
We've been through fake-a-breakdown
Self hurt
Plastics, collections
Self help, self pain
EST, psychics, fuck all
I was central
I had control
I lost my head
I need this
I need this
A paper weight, junk garage
Winter rain, a honey pot
Crazy, all the lovers have been tagged
A hotline, a wanted add
It's crazy what you could've had

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: THIS TWILIGHT GARDEN/THE CURE

I lift my lips from kissing you
To kiss the sky
Cloud soft and blue
And slow the sun melts down
Into your golden words for me

I lift my hands from touching you
To touch the wind that whispers through
This twilight garden
Turns into a world
Where dreams are real

No one will ever take your place
I am lost in you
No one will ever take your place
So in love with you

I lift my eyes from watching you
To watch the star rise shine onto
Your dreaming face and dreaming smile
You're dreaming worlds for me

No one will ever take your place
I am lost in you
No one will ever take your place
So in love with you

I lift my lips from kissing you
And kiss the sky wide deepest blue
And slow the moon swims up
Into your golden words for me

No one will ever take your place
I am lost in you
No one will ever take your place
So in love with you
No one will ever take your place
I am lost in you
No one will ever take your place
