LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: VICIOUS CIRCLE/PROPAGANDA





Days become years
Years become tears
Inside this maze
I've lost your trace

A prison cell
A lonely hell
All doors are locked
The key's been dropped

I've fallen prey to a delusion
Your pretty mask has been an illusion
Stupefying ways of sinning
Makes me miss the web you're spinning

Days become years
Years become tears
Inside this maze
I've lost your trace

A prison cell
A lonely hell
No candlelight
Repels the night

I've fallen prey to a delusion
Your pretty mask has been an illusion
Stupefying ways of sinning
Makes me miss the web you're spinning

You captured me inside a vicious circle
A helpless fly
You captured me inside a vicious circle
A helpless fly tangled up
In your spider web of lies

Days become years
Years become tears
The silent wall
Embraces all

An empty heart
Ignores the pain
Of love that's lost
When love's in vain

I've fallen prey to a delusion
Your pretty mask has been an illusion
Stupefying ways of sinning
Makes me miss the web you're spinning

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: FILMSTAR/SUEDE





Filmstar, propping up the bar, driving in a car, it looks so easy
Filmstar, propping up the bar, driving in a car tonight
Filmstar, giving it class, living it fast, it looks so easy
Filmstar, giving it class, living it fast tonight

What to believe in, it's impossible to say?
What to believe in when they change your name
Wash your brain, play the game again

Filmstar, elegance, a terylene shirt, it looks so easy
Filmstar, an elegant sir in a terylene shirt tonight
Filmstar, propping up the bar, driving in a car, it looks so easy
Filmstar, propping up the bar, driving in a car tonight

What to believe in, it's impossible to say?
What to believe in when they change your name
Wash your brain, play the game again

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: VIðRAR VEL TIL LOFTÁRÁSA/SIGUR RÓS





Ég læt mig líða áfram
Í gegnum hausinn
Hugsa hálfa leið
Afturábak
Sé sjálfan mig syngja sem

Fagnaðarerindið við sömdum saman tyo
Við áttum okkur draum
Áttum allt
Við riðum heimsendi
Við riðum leitandi
Klifruðum skýjakljúfa
Sem síðar sprungu upp
Friðurinn úti
Ég lek jafnvægi
Ég dett niður
Ég læt mig líða áfram
Í gegnum hausinn
Ég kem alltaf niður aftur á sama stað
Alger Þögn
Ekkert svar
En Það besta sem guð hefur skapað
Er nýr dagur


(Tempo buono per un attacco aereo)

Scivolo in avanti
Nella mia testa
Solo mezzi pensieri
All'indietro
Mi vedo cantare
L'inno che abbiamo scritto assieme
Avevamo un sogno
Avevamo tutto
Siamo arrivati alla fine del mondo
Ci siamo arrivati cercando
Scalando grattacieli
Che poi sono esplosi
La pace è svanita
L'equilibrio è stato trafugato
Cado
Scivolo in avanti
Nella mia testa
Ritorno sempre nello stesso posto
Nel silenzio totale
Nessuna risposta
Ma la cosa migliore è stata creata
È un nuovo giorno

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WARPED/RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS





My tendency
For dependency
Is offending me
It's upending me
I'm pretending see
To be strong and free
From my dependency
It's warping me

So much love
So rare to dare
Afraid of
Ever being there
Take me home
I need repair
Take me please
To anywhere

Descend all the way all the way
Everyday
Warped and scared
Of being there
Of being there

Night craving
Sends me crawling
Beg for mercy
Does it show
A vacancy
That's full of holes
Hold me please
I'm feeling cold

Descend all the way all the way
Everyday
Warped and scared
Of being there
Of being there

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: ELEANOR RIGBY/THE BEATLES





Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Father McKenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near
Look at him working
Darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there
What does he care?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: A CHAIN OF FLOWERS/THE CURE





Please wake up
It's so dark and cold
Please wake up
I feel so alone
And I feel so scared
That you're going away
And I feel so scared

All I want is summer
Stories from before
Just like the day you tried to hide
Behind the churchyard wall
And fell asleep before I came
I found you in a chain of flowers
Sleeping like a marble girl
Sleeping in another world

I'll never tell you
Of all the different ways
All the different ways
You make me so afraid

Please wake up
It's so dark and cold
Please wake up
I feel so alone
And I feel so scared
That you're going away
And I feel so scared
That you're going away
I'll never tell you
Of all the different ways
All the different ways
You make me so afraid

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WE STILL GOT THE TASTE DANCIN' ON OUR TONGUES/WILD BEASTS





Kick, the spirit kicks
But the moonshine plays cheap tricks
Us kids are cold and cagey rattling around the town
Scaring the oldies into their dressing gowns
As the dribbling dogs howl

What’so wrong with just a little fun?
We still got the taste dancin’ on our tongues
When we pucker up our lips are bee-stung
We still got the taste dancin’ on our tongues
We got gusto
We are headstrong
We still got the taste dancin’ on our tongues
Fill our bellies and we fill our lungs
We still got the taste dancin’ on our tongues

Darling the spirit is kicking
Don’t be fooled by the moonshine it’s tricking
Frock spill like alcho-pop around girls’ knees
Trousers and blouses make excellent sheets
Down dimly lit streets

What’so wrong with just a little fun?
We still got the taste dancin’ on our tongues
When we pucker up our lips are bee-stung
We still got the taste dancin’ on our tongues
We got gusto
We are headstrong
We still got the taste dancin’ on our tongues
Fill our bellies and we fill our lungs
We still got the taste dancin’ on our tongues

Why should we feel bad for what we’ve done?
We still got the taste dancin’ on our tongues
Love the smash and grab of our goings on
We still got the taste dancin’ on our tongues

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: VIOLENTLY HAPPY/BJÖRK





Since I met you
This small town hasn't got room
For my big feelings

Violently happy
'Cause I love you
Violently happy
But you're not here
Violently happy
Come calm me down
Before I get into trouble

I tip-toe down to the shore
Stand by the ocean
Make it roar at me
And I roar back

Violently happy
'Cause I love you
Violently happy
I'm aiming too high
Violently happy
It will get me into trouble
Violently happy
I'm driving my car
Too fast
With ecstatic music on
Violently happy
I'm getting too drunk
Violently happy
I'm daring people
To jump off roofs with me
Only you
Can calm me down
I'm aiming too high
Soothe me

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: KINGDOM OF DOOM/THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE QUEEN





Friday night
In the kingdom of doom
Ravens fly
Across the moon
All in now
There’s a noise in the sky
Following all the rules
And not asking why
When the sunset wheel begins
Turning into the night
I see everything in black and white
And then

Drink all day
Coz the country's at war
You'll be falling off the palace walls
I can’t be anymore than I say
In the flood you'll be washed away
When the sunset wheel begins
Turning into the night
I see everything in black and white
Become a love song for the collaboration
You and me will never be undone
We’ll let it blow away

ALBUM: THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE QUEEN (2007)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: DESIRE/TALK TALK





Desire, whispered, spoken
In time
Rivers, oceans

That ain't me babe
That ain't me babe
That ain't me babe
I'm just content to relax
Than drown within myself

Of mind
Sheltered, broken
Denied, gifted, stolen

That ain't me babe
That ain't me babe
That ain't me babe
Ain't got a bed of excuse for myself

That ain't me babe

That ain't me babe
Ain't got a bed of excuse for myself

That ain't me babe
That ain't me babe
That ain't me babe
I'm just content to relax
Than drown within myself

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: BODYSNATCHERS/RADIOHEAD





I do not
Understand
What it is
I've done wrong
Full of holes
Check for pulse
Blink your eyes
One for yes
Two for no


I have no idea what I am talking about
I am trapped in this body and can't get out

You killed the sound
removed backbone
A pale imitation
With the edges
Sawn off

I have no idea what you are talking about
Your mouth moves only with someone's hand up your ass

Has the light gone out for you?
Because the light's gone for me
It is the 21st century
It is the 21st century
It can follow you like a dog
It brought me to my knees
They got a skin and they put me in
They got a skin and they put me in
All the lines wrapped around my face
All the lines wrapped around my face
And for anyone else to see
And for anyone else to see
I'm a lie

I've seen it coming
I've seen it coming
I've seen it coming
I've seen it coming

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: MY OWN WAY (NIGHT VERSION)/DURAN DURAN





I saw you at the airace yesterday
April showers get out of my way
Fear of flying no not me
I'm never bothered what you say
Someone's kid just lives for today
It ain't your problem anyway

'Cause I've got my own way
I can find my own way
'Cause I've got my own way
'Cause I've got my own way
I can find my own way
'Cause I've got my own way

Some kind of public figure what a pain
Just puts another rattle in your brain
Take another green but it's not the same
So now you're on the sandlane everyday
Dancing with the bulls in any old way
Running like a fox to keep up with me

'Cause I've got my own way
I can find my own way
'Cause I've got my own way
'Cause I've got my own way
I can find my own way
'Cause I've got my own way
