LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: GIVE IT UP/THE BIG PINK

We'll laugh, I tried to warm that heart
Looking back, we were lost from the start
All locked up in your own mind
It's no surprise your tongue was tied
We did bad things when we were young
You'd smile and torture me just for fun
When the sun went down, I replayed the past
Knew every scene, it went by so fast

When I have the strength enough to fight
When the fire that burns goes out inside
Cry for desire to change your mind
What's left you played, it's your hardest role

Give it up, give it up for me
You make your move
Get off our rage
Give it up, it doesn't have to be so hard
Give it up, give it up for me
You make your move
Get off our rage
Give it up, it doesn't have to be so hard

Twenty-four floors above the ground
We shared the sixties's silver sound
A glass of goose, a magnetic stare
Behind those eyes, there was nothing there
Strange little girl, what did you do
I could always see straight through you
It's so pretty on the other side
Your reflection will fool us all in time
When I have the strength enough to fight
When the fire that burns goes out inside
Cry for desire to change your mind
What's left you played, it's your hardest role

Give it up, give it up for me
You make your move
Get off our rage
Give it up, it doesn't have to be so hard
Give it up, give it up for me
You make your move
Get off our rage
Give it up, it doesn't have to be so hard

And I know it won't be long
'Till I give up
And the roles reverse and I give you another chance
And I'd love to try again
Try again to warm that heart

Give it up, give it up for me
You make your move
Get off our rage
Give it up, it doesn't have to be so hard
Give it up, give it up for me
You make your move
Get off our rage
Give it up, it doesn't have to be so hard

Give it up, give it up for me
Give it up, give it up for me
Give it up, give it up for me
Give it up, it doesn't have to be so hard

ASCOLTI: A BRIEF HISTORY OF LOVE/THE BIG PINK

DOMINOS/THE BIG PINK

Non c'è che dire: a scuola, la lezione sul Brit Pop i Big Pink l'hanno imparata proprio bene. Nell'album d'esordio della band inglese, infatti, si distinguono riferimenti neanche troppo velati agli Stone Roses, agli Oasis, ai Verve, sapientemente amalgamati e rielaborati con una punta di suoni elettronici. Un'operazione che ricorda, seppur in modo più concreto e meno eccentrico, i lavori dei dei Kasabian. The Brief History Of Love ha un andamento piuttosto coerente: l'intro deciso di Crystal Visions, la convincente At War With The Sun, il nuovo singolo Dominos (un potenziale inno, col suo ritornello "these girls fall like dominos") e le già note hit Velvet e Too Young Too Love, perfettamente inserite nel contesto, la rumorosa Frisk e la ballata Love In Vain, forse il brano più riuscito. Un disco che di certo non brilla per originalità, e che nulla toglie e nulla aggiunge al panorama musicale britannico, ma che tutto sommato si lascia ascoltare con piacere.
