LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: CARELESS WHISPER/GEORGE MICHAEL
Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is the horror you'll find
Should've known better
I feel so unsure
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies
Something in your eyes
Calls to mind the silver screen
And all its sad goodbyes
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is the horror you'll find
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Never without your love
Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But now who's gonna dance with me?
Please stay
And I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
(Now that you're gone) Now that you're gone
(Now that you're gone) Was what I did so wrong, so wrong
That you had to leave me alone?

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THERE THERE/RADIOHEAD
Diretto da CHRIS HOPEWELL
In pitch dark I go walking in your landscape
Broken branches trip me as I speak
Just 'cause you feel it doesnt mean it's there
Just 'cause you feel it doesnt mean it's there
There's always a siren
Singing you to shipwreck
(Don't reach out, don't reach out
Don't reach out, don't reach out)
Steer away from these rocks
We'd be a walking disaster
(Don't reach out, don't reach out
Don't reach out, don't reach out)
Just 'cause you feel it doesn't mean it's there
(There's someone on your shoulder)
(There's someone on your shoulder)
Just 'cause you feel it doesn't mean it's there
(There's someone on your shoulder)
(There's someone on your shoulder)
There there
Why so green and lonely?
And lonely
And lonely
Heaven sent you to me
To me
To me
We are accidents
Waiting waiting to happen
We are accidents
Waiting waiting to happen

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: LAST LIVING SOULS/GORILLAZ
Are we the last living souls?
Are we the last living souls?
Are we the last living souls?
Are we the last living souls?
Take a gun
Or how you say
That's no way, to behave
You're on your own, when you begin
To sing a song that doesn't sing
It grows
You know
Are we the last living souls?
Are we the last living souls?
Are we the last to get away to sing a song another day?
Or do we know
Well, we know
does it seem to be conveyed that way?
Are we, are we the last living souls?
Are we the last living souls?
Are we the last living souls?
If your the last living soul
Get up, get up, get up, get up
What you say?
Cause all I had sung
I got it down and wrong
I see myself to get
The Lord, seeing all now
Can you take us in
The part that comin' on
The coldest man doesn't see it's all
We go to the car
I see you walk to the far
And when you get there do you see
You fit the last you need on me
Cause we're the last living souls
We're the last living souls
Yeah, we're the last living souls
We're the last living souls

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WHY DOES IT ALWAYS RAIN ON ME?/TRAVIS
I can't sleep tonight
Everybody's saying everything is alright
Still I can't close my eyes
I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights
Sunny days
Where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong
Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining
I can't avoid the lightning
I can't stand myself
I'm being held up by invisible men
Still life on a shelf when
I got my mind on something else
Sunny days
Oh where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong
Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining
I can't avoid the lightning
Oh where did the blue sky go?
Why is it raining so?
It's so cold
I can't sleep tonight
Everybody saying everything is alright
Still I can't close my eyes
I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights
Sunny days
Oh where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong
Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining
I can't avoid the lightning
Oh where did the blue sky go?
And why is it raining so?
It's so cold
Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining
I can't avoid the lightning
Why does it always rain on me?
Why does it always rain on

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE KING OF ROCK 'N' ROLL/PREFAB SPROUT
All my lazy teenage boasts are now high precision ghosts
And they're coming round the track to haunt me
When she looks at me and laughs I remind her of the facts
I'm the king of rock'n roll completely
Up from suede shoes to my baby blues
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
The dream helps you forget you ain't never danced a step
You were never fleet of foot, hippy
All the pathos you can keep for the children in the street
For the vision I have had is sweeping
New broom, this room, sweep it clean
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
High kickin' dandy, fine figure fine cut a fine figure fine oh yeah
Long legged candy, fine figure fine cut a fine figure fine oh yeah
Now my rhythm ain't so hot, but it's the only friend I've got
I'm the king of rock'n roll completely
All the pretty birds have flown now I'm dancing on my own
I'm the king of rock'n roll completely
Up from, suede shoes to my baby blues
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
High kickin' dandy, fine figure fine cut a fine figure fine oh yeah
Long legged candy, fine figure fine cut a fine figure fine oh yeah

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE POWER/SUEDE
Through endless Asia, through the fields of Cathay
Or enslaved in pebble-dash grave with a kid on the way
If you're far over Africa on the wings of youth
Or if you're down in some satellite town and there's nothing you can do
Just give me, give me, give me the power
And I'll make them bleed
Give me, give me the power
Although I'm just the common breed
You might live in a screen kiss, it's a glamorous dream
Or belong to a world that's gone, it's the english disease
But give me, give me the power
And I'll make them bleed
Give, give me, give me the power
Although I'm just the common breed

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING IDLE/OASIS
Diretto da DAWN SHADFORTH
I sold my soul for the second time
'Cos the man, he don't pay me
I begged my landlord for some more time
He said "Son, the bills' waiting"
My best friend called me the other night
He said "Man - are you crazy"
My girlfriend told me to get a life
She said "Boy, are you lazy?"
But I don't mind
As long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine
I'll be fine
If you give me a minute, a man's got a limit
I can't get a life if my heart's not in it
I don't mind
As long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine
I'll be fine
If you give me a minute, a man's got a limit
I can't get a life if my heart's not in it
I lost my faith in the summer time
'Cos it don't stop raining
The sky all day is as black as night
But I'm not complaining
I begged my doctor for one more line
He said "Son, oh words fail me"
It ain't no place to be killing time
I guess I'm just lazy
I don't mind
As long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine
I'll be fine, if you give me a minute, a man's got a limit
I can't get a life if my heart's not in it

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THIS LANGUAGE/STATELESS
Speak explosive speech, speech to keep us safe
A smiling fire bomb
Shake, shake another hand, crush another soul
With your fame and your medicine
I don't understand this language
You fight fire with fire and we all get burned
I don't understand this language
You fight fire with fire and we all get burned
Cast, cast another stone
A stone to keep us safe from these broken promises
Dream an everlasting dream
A dream where we escape these new speak savages
I don't understand this language
You fight fire with fire and we all get burned
I don't understand this language
You fight fire with fire and we all get burned
You better make for the oxygen tent
And try to sleep with one eye open
'Cause they have ways to divert your attention
They have ways to disguise the intention
"Duck tape not just on my mouth I'm wrapped up in it
Can't break free from the money that's trapped up in it
Unwilling passenger on this suicide mission
Genocide every side getting dirtier and dirtier with every very new rendition
Every mother, every child that's died for the pride
Of the false stride of a politician
And they haunt every corner of my minds eye ask why?
But the answers are missing
With holes in the stories that are half truth half lie
Consequences smouldering
But the fire burns bright for the masses what's right
Is the life of the mission"
You better make for the oxygen tent
And try to sleep with one eye open
'Cause they have ways to divert your attention
They have ways to disguise the intention
Fire with fire and we'll all get burned
Fire with fire and we'll all get burned
Fire with fire and we'll all get burned
Fire with fire and we'll all get burned
I don't understand this language
(Fire with fire and we'll all get burned)
I don't understand this language
(Fire with fire and we'll all get burned)
I don't understand this language
(Fire with fire and we'll all get burned)
I don't understand
(Fire with fire and we'll all get burned)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SICK MUSE/METRIC
Watch out Cupid, stuck me with a sickness
Pull your little arrows out and let me live my life
You better watch out Cupid, stuck me with a sickness
Pull your little arrows out and let me live my life
The one I better lead
All the blondes of Fantasies
And we looked at them eleven ways
You said, 'look at me', I looked away
And you wrote the song I wanna play
I'll write you harmony in C
Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead
Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead
Play the lead
Play the lead
Watch out Cupid, money is a sick muse
Pull your little arrows out and let me live my life
She said: I'm with stupid. Money is a sick muse
Pull your little arrows out and let me live my life
The one I better lead
All the blondes of Fantasies
And we looked at them eleven ways
You said, 'look at me', I looked away
And you wrote the song I wanna play
I'll write you harmony in C
Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead
Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead
Play the lead
Play the lead
I'll write you harmony in C
Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead
Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead
Play the lead

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: TUTTO L'UNIVERSO OBBEDISCE ALL'AMORE/FRANCO BATTIATO E CARMEN CONSOLI
Rara la vita in due fatta di lievi gesti
E affetti di giornata, consistenti o no
Bisogna muoversi come ospiti pieni di premure
Con delicata attenzione per non disturbare
Ed è in certi sguardi che si vede l’infinito
Stridono le auto come bisonti infuriati
Le strade sono praterie, accanto a grattacieli assolati
Come possiamo tenere nascosta la nostra intesa
Ed è in certi sguardi che si intravede l’infinito
Tutto l’universo obbedisce all’amore
Come puoi tenere nascosto un amore
Ed è così che ci trattiene
Nelle sue catene
Tutto l’universo obbedisce all’amore
Come possiamo tenere nascosta la nostra intesa
Ed è in certi sguardi che si nasconde l’infinito
Tutto l’universo obbedisce all’amore
Come puoi tenere nascosto un amore
Ed è così che ci trattiene
Nelle sue catene
Tutto l’universo obbedisce all’amore
Obbedisce all’amore
