LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: 1000 MIRRORS/ASIAN DUB FOUNDATION FEAT. SINÉAD O'CONNOR





A scream, a shout far in the distance
Maybe the first or second floor
And curtains colour in the windows
Never seen behind closed doors
A silent sage behind the lightness
Domestic harmony for sure
Now send the mirrors of the marriage
Outside a world she'll never know

And as I see through the building
I'm falling straight into
A thousand broken mirrors I can't hide
And outside the bright lights
Can't hide the pain inside
And I've broken a thousand mirrors
Now it's time
Now it's time
Now it's time

Loving your children with a passion
Protecting them at any cost
Taking the only course of action
There's no more bridges left to cross
Who are the ones who are the guilty?
Who are the ones who wear the scars?
We must not leave our sisters bleeding
We sing this song for civil action

And as I stare through that window
I'm falling straight into
A thousand broken mirrors I can't hide
And outside the bright lights
What hide the pain inside
And I've broken a thousand mirrors
Now it's time
Now it's time
Now it's time

And as I stare through that window
I'm falling straight into
A thousand broken mirrors I can't hide
And outside the bright lights
Can't hide the pain inside
And I've broken a thousand mirrors
Now it's time
Now it's time

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: CHILD OF THE JAGO/KAISER CHIEFS





This is your nightmare calling
It's the downside of life in the city
Trouble will always find you
That's the problem of life in the city
It's always a pity
That someone goes under

I'll show you the worse side of life
That you thought was forgotten forever
It's not that it's evil there
But it's always lurking around
Like a child of the Jago
A child of the Jago

The city's a cemetary
Everywhere that you dig is another
Open it up beneath you
And the bad things are pulling you under
And once you go under
You're gone and forgotten

Some of the symmetry
Between the rooftop pools in the sewer
It's easy to disappear
When you know that nobody would miss you
Like a child of the Jago
A child of the Jago

Theres always been weary souls
That look like they're straight out of fiction
Wretched and weather-beaten
With the wind blowing rain in their faces
It always disgraces
In most modern places

There's always a worse kind of place
Where it will shock even the sick and the twisted
Pocket is there for the picking
And the clothes are for living on church day
The difference is minor
To a child of the Jago

The future is medieval
The future is medieval
The future is medieval
The future is medieval

The future is medieval
The future is medieval
The future is medieval
The future is medieval

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: UNDERNEATH THE SYCAMORE/DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE





Lying in a field of glass
Underneath the overpass
Mangled in the shards of a metal frame
Woken from the dream by my own name
Well I was such a wretched man
Searching everywhere for a homeland
And now we are under the same sun
Feel it through the leaves
Let it heal us

We are the same
We are both safe
Underneath the sycamore
We are the same
We are both safe
Underneath the sycamore

We were both broken in our own ways
Sifting through the rubble for the wrong things
I know you've got a vengeful heart
And I cannot be stopped as soon as I start
But you have seen your darkest rooms
And I have slept in makeshift tombs
And this is where we find our peace
This is where we are at least

We are the same
We are both safe
Underneath the sycamore
We are the same
We are both safe
Underneath the sycamore
We are the same
We are both safe
Underneath the sycamore
We are the same
We are both safe
Underneath the sycamore

We are the same
We are both safe
Underneath the sycamore
We are the same
We are both safe
Underneath the sycamore
We are the same
We are both safe
Underneath the sycamore
We are the same
We are both safe
Underneath the sycamore

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: CALGARY/BON IVER





Don't you cherish me to sleep
Never keep your eyelids clipped
Hold me for the pops and clicks
I was only for the father's crib

Hair, old, long along
Your neck onto your shoulder blades
Always keep that message taped
Cross your breasts you won't erase
I was only for your very space

Hip, under nothing
Propped up by your other one
Face way from the sun
Just have to keep a dialogue
Teach our bodies, haunt the cause
I was only trying to spell a loss

Joy, it's all founded
Pincher with the skin inside
You pinned me with your black sphere eyes
You know that all the rope's untied
I was only for to die beside

So itʼs storming on the lake
Little waves our bodies break
There's a fire going out
But there's really nothing to the south
Swollen orange and light let through
Your one piece swimmer stuck to you

Sold, I'm ever
Open ears and open eyes
Wake up to your starboard bride
Who goes in and then stays inside
Oh the demons come, they can subside

(Calgary)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE HELLCAT SPANGLED SHALALALA/ARCTIC MONKEYS





Just when things are getting complicated in the eye of the storm
She flicks a red-hot revelation off the tip of her tongue
It does a dozen somersaults and it leaves you supercharged
Makes me wanna blow her candles out
just to see if you glow in the dark
Shalalala, shalalala, shalalala, shalalala

Home sweet home, home sweet home, home sweet booby-trap
I took the batteries out my mysticism and put 'em in my thinking cap
She's got a telescopic hallelujah hanging up on the wall
For when it gets too complicated in the eye of the storm
Shalalala, shalalala, shalalala, shalalala

And in a hellcat spangled cavern
When your judgement's on the run
And you're acting like a stranger
'Cause you thought it looked like fun
Well did you ever get the feeling
Did you think she set the fall
Her steady hands may well have done the devil's pedicure
What you waiting for?
To sing another fuckin'
Shalalala, shalalala, shalalala, shalalala

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: LITTLE SHOCKS/KAISER CHIEFS



Sorpresa: sono tornati i Kaiser Chiefs!




I don't want much
I'm happy with what I've got
On the second floor
I pass a ruffian on the stairs
What the driver saw
throughthe letter box of number four
I don't have much
It will be deafening when I do

And all these little shocks
I'll be riding my imaginary dynamo
I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't
I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't

Bless my heart
And everything will be explained
In the diaries
Especially the latter part
I'll be a somebody
I found an empty glass today at home
Give me ability
Turn up the pedal away from his hand

And all these little shocks
I'll be riding my imaginary dynamo
I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't
I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't
I wish I could have you just a little bit more
Just a little bit more of your time
I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't

I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't
I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't
I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't
I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't
I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't

And all these little shocks
I'll be riding my imaginary dynamo
I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't
I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't
I wish I could have just a little bit more
Just a little bit more of your time
I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE NEW/INTERPOL





I wish I could live free
Hope it's not beyond me
Settling down takes time
One day we'll live together
And life will be better
I have it here in my mind
Baby, you know someday you'll slow grow
And baby, my hearts been breaking
I gave a lot to you
I take a lot from you too
You slave a lot for me
Guess you could say I gave you my edge

But I can't pretend
I don't need to defend some part of me from you
I know I've spent some time lying
But I can't pretend
I don't need to defend some part of me from you
I know I've spent some time lying

You're looking all right tonight
I think we should go

CONCERTI: INTERPOL/ATLANTICO/ROMA




SAY HELLO TO THE ANGELS

Ancora Interpol dal vivo (dopo la data dello scorso Novembre a Milano), stavolta in casa, a Roma. Sarà che l'Atlantico (l'ex PalaCisalfa) è più piccolo del PalaSharp, sarà che a Roma suonano per la prima volta da headliners, ma la band newyorkese sembra in ottima forma, e ne viene fuori uno show davvero speciale, tirato, e molto partecipato dal pubblico. La scaletta è grossomodo la stessa, fatta eccezione per qualche pezzo, come Hands Away e The New. Rest My Chemistry, NYC, Slow Hands vengono letteralmente avvolte dall'entusiasmo dei fan, mentre il picco più alto è l'esecuzione di Lights, da brividi. Il bis si apre con Specialist, e si conclude trionfalmente con Obstacle 1. Paul Banks è ispirato e comunicativo, Daniel Kessler come al solito impeccabile nella sua mise, nonostante il caldo infernale dell'Atlantico, e Brad Truax, il nuovo bassista, è discreto ai limiti dell'invisibile ma molto efficace, con buona pace di David Pajo.

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: LOVE LIFE/JOAN OF ARC





It's so hard to know what's right
For the robot programed to want to be liked
Once life style itself has exploded viral
And all we all require in common is desire

Common sense was once the robots superstition
But singing in the rain, his circuits spark and fire
Anything less than everything remains nothing
When all we all require in common is desire

After the first world war there is no other
