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

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: GOING INSIDE/JOHN FRUSCIANTE





You don't throw your life away
Going inside
You get to know who's watching you
And who besides you resides
In your body
Where you're slow
Where you go doesn't matter
'Cause there will come a time
When time goes out the window
And you'll learn to drive out of focus of you
And if anything unfolds
It's supposed to

You don't throw your time away sitting still
I'm in a chain of memories
It's my will
And I had to consult some figures of the past
And I know someone after me
Will go right back
I'm not telling a view
I've got this night to unglue
I moved this fight away
By doing things there's no reason to do

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SIRENSONG/THE CURE





It could’ve been her golden hair
That turned my head
I didn’t want to stare
Like I was hypnotized
But I was fixed
Without a name or memory
I waited there
Too scared to even breathe
And I was tricked

It could’ve been her silver skin
That drew me on
I didn’t want to spin
Like I was mesmerised
But I was rapt
Without a name or memory
I waited there
Too scared to even breathe
She sang, she sang

Tell me you love me
And beg me to stay
Tell me you love me
Before it’s too late
Give me your life
Or I must fly away
And you will never hear this song again

It could’ve been her crystal eyes
That made me stop
I didn’t want to sigh
Like I was stupefied
But I was thrown
Without a name or memory
I waited there
Too scared to even breathe
Or mine alone
She sang, she sang

Tell me you love me
And beg me to stay
Tell me you love me
Before it’s too late
Give me your life
Or I must fly away
And you will never hear this song

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: STARS/WARPAINT





Wonderful one
Why are you like that?
Wonderful one
Why are you like that?
Glow in the darkness
That's how you do it
Glow in the darkness
That's how we do it
Just like the stars
Upon your ceiling
That put you to sleep after

Wonderful one
Why are you like that?
Wonderful one
Why are you like that?
Glow in the darkness
That's how you do it
Glow in the darkness
That's how we do it
Just like the stars
Upon your ceiling
That put you to sleep after
Just like the stars
Upon your ceiling
That put you to sleep after
Put you to sleep after
Put you to sleep after

Cross the lighting darkness in your arms
In your arms
In your arms
Headache damn it at your talk, talk, talk
Hanging with your feet, feet, feet
Hanging with your feet
Here we are apart
But not again
And again
And again
And again
That doesn't make sense

And in the end they ask you for
Your reply
Don't you tell them
What you found out
There is time

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE EDGE OF AMERICA/DURAN DURAN





Walk the edge of America
A concrete beach to scrape my head
Inside the subway stinking fear and shame
Becomes the violent breath
Vigilantes out on dawn patrol
But now there's nothing left to hide
I'm just a number on the metal fence
Which marks the great divide
(Sing it)

Hey boy, give your dreams a rest
If you're tired of searching
This is where it ends
Here's nothing left to lose
Nothing to protest
Learn to love your anger now
Anger here is all you possess
Welcome to the edge

Below the towers of the citadel
Seems someone overlooked the cost
Forgotten soldier of paradise
Now paradise is lost
Recognition never realised
Salvation lost among the crowd
So tell me here beside the sterile sea
Where is your nation now?
(We say)

Hey boy, give your dreams a rest
If you're tired of searching
This is where it ends
Here's nothing left to lose
Nothing to protest
Learn to love your anger now
Anger here is all you possess
Welcome to the edge

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: QUEEN BLACK ACID/MENOMENA





I get so caught up in my ways
Sometimes I overlook the simple plains
I feel like certain times in my life
Are met with certain times for pain to thrive
You're five foot five, not a hundred pounds
I'm scared to death of every single ounce
And worst of all is when it's calm
'Cause I know the sea won't be calm for long

You bring me down

I walked right in through the rabbit's door
And walked right into the rabbit's hole
I made myself an open book
I made myself a sitting duck

I don't know how I missed the signs
I must have passed by them a hundred times
You barely notice what I say
You're busy looking round the room instead
I get so caught up in my ways

I walked right in through the rabbit's door
And walked right into the rabbit's hole
I made myself an open book
I made myself a sitting duck
I'm walking down this rabbit trail
My feet grow heavy with every step
I stop to eat and take a nap
And now I can't find my way back

You bring me down
You bring me down
So down
So down

Rabbit's door
Rabbit's hole
Open book
Sitting duck
Rabbit's door
Rabbit's hole
Open book

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: UNO/MUSE





This means nothing to me
'Cause you are nothing to me
And it means nothing to me
That you blew this away
'Cause you could've been number one
If you only found the time
And you could've ruled the whole world
If you had the chance

You could've been number one
And you could've ruled the whole world
And we could've had so much fun
But you blew it away

You're still nothing to me
And this is nothing to me
And you don't know what you've done
But I'll give you a clue
You could've been number one
If you only had the chance
And you could've ruled the whole world
If you had the time

You could've been number one
And you could've ruled the whole world
And we could've had so much fun
But you blew it away
You could've been number one
And you could've ruled the whole world
And we could've had so much fun
But you blew it away

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: ALL MY LOVE/LED ZEPPELIN





Should I fall out of love, my fire in the light
To chase a feather in the wind
Within the glow that weaves a cloak of delight
There moves a thread that has no end
For many hours and days that pass ever soon
The tides have caused the flame to dim
At last the arm is straight, the hand to the loom
Is this to end or just begin?

All of my love
All of my love
All of my love to you now
All of my love
All of my love
All of my love to you now

The cup is raised, the toast is made yet again
One voice is clear above the din
Proud aryan, one word, my will to sustain
For me the cloth once more to spin

All of my love
All of my love
All of my love to you now
All of my love
All of my love
Yes, all of my love to you just

Yours is the cloth, mine is the hand that sews time
His is the force that lies within
Ours is the fire, all the warmth we can find
He is a feather in the wind

All of my love
All of my love
All of my love to you now
All of my love
Yes, all of my love to you now
All of my love
All of my love
All of my love
Love
Sometime, sometime
Sometime, sometime

All of my love
All of my love
All of my love to you now
All of my love
All of my love
All of my love to you now
I get a little bit lonely
Just a little, just a little

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: INCLUDE ME OUT/DEUS





Where have I seen this before?
When will I feel it again?
Somebody opened a door
I'm afraid to walk in
Imagination stands still
I read it in open book
Read it in open book

Oh man, I read it in books of laughter
Oh man, I read it in books of pain

What are you talking to me
Cause I'm not really here
Like a spirit that's free
I'm as light as the air

Oh man, as light as the air and floating
Oh man, as light as the air and floating

Take me on
Where the fire winds blow
Or where a fallen leaf stays for days
On your shoulder
'Cause all I need
Is to find my own
And that summering drone
Illicit and golden

Oh lord, where have is seen this before?
Oh lord, when will I feel it again?
(Read it in every move)
Oh lord, where have is seen this before?
(Read it in every game)
(Read it in what you do)
Oh lord, when will I feel it again?
(Read it in everything)
(Read it in everything)

Oh man, as light as the air and floating
Oh man, as light as the air and floating

Take me on
Where the fire winds blow
'Cause when time stands still
I wait until
It's over
And all I need
Is to find my own
And that summering drone
Illicit and golden

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: LOUDER THAN EVER/COLD WAR KIDS





All my window are barred
The sun makes stripes to shade
I was sitting round like a zombie
Feeling my own face
I was carrying my cheek
I was digging my strange
I was taking you for granted
You were hole in the rains

But I can hear you louder than ever
Whisper to me
Help me remember
I can't see you but we're still together
That I can hear you louder than ever

It's a slippery slope
Like that mouth strap game
Inside my eternal vision
You stepped on my train

But I can hear you louder than ever
Whisper to me
Help me remember
I can't see you but we're still together
That I can hear you louder than ever

I don't wanna ignore
You were the past of my feelings
We're probably gonna get out of this
Just bail me out anyway
The darkness knockin'
And now I've doubted all my promises
Don't try to pull me out of this
Just lay down by me and wait

But I can hear you louder than ever
Whisper to me
Help me remember
I can't see you but we're still together
That I can hear you louder than ever

I can hear you louder than ever
I can hear you louder than ever
I can hear you louder than ever
I can hear you louder than ever

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: LET'S DANCE TO JOY DIVISION/THE WOMBATS





I'm back in Liverpool
And everything seems the same
But I worked something out last night
That changed this little boys brain
A small piece of advice
That took twenty-two years in the make
And I will break it for you now
Please learn from my mistakes
Please learn from my mistakes

Let's dance to Joy Division
And celebrate the irony
Everything is going wrong
But we're so happy
Let's dance to Joy Division
And raise our glass to the ceiling
'Cause this could all go so wrong
But we're so happy
We're so happy

So if you're ever feeling down
Grab your purse and take a taxi
To the darker side of town
That's where we'll be
And we will wait for you and lead you through the dancefloor
Up to the DJ booth
You know what to ask for
You know what to ask for

Let's dance to Joy Division
And celebrate the irony
Everything is going wrong
But we're so happy
Let's dance to Joy Division
And raise our glass to the ceiling
'Cause this could all go so wrong
But we're so happy
We're so happy

So let the love tear us apart
I've found the cure for a broken heart
Let it tear us apart
let the love tear us apart
I've found the cure for a broken heart
Let it tear us apart
So let the love tear us apart
I've found the cure for a broken heart
Let it tear us apart
So let the love tear us apart
I've found the cure for a broken heart
Let it tear us apart
Let it tear us apart
Let it tear us apart

Let's dance to Joy Division
And celebrate the irony
Everything is going wrong
But we're so happy
Let's dance to Joy Division
And raise our glass to the ceiling
'Cause this could all go so wrong
But we're so happy
We're so happy
So happy
We're so happy
So happy
We're so happy
