LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: EVERY TEARDROP IS A WATERFALL/COLDPLAY

I turn the music up
I got my records on
I shut the world outside until the lights come on
Maybe the streets alight
Maybe the trees are gone
I feel my heart start beating to my favorite song

And all the kids they dance
All the kids dance all night
Until monday morning feels another life
I turn the music up
I’m on a roll this time
And heaven is in sight

I turn the music up
I got my records on
From underneath a rubble
I sing a rebel song
Don’t want to see another generation drop
I’d rather be in a coma than in a full stop

Maybe I’m in the black
Maybe I’m on my knees
Maybe I’m in the gap between the two trapezes
But my heart is beating and my pulses start
Cathedrals in my heart

And we saw this light
I swear you, emerge blinking into
To tell me it’s alright
As we soar walls
Every siren is a symphony
And every tear’s a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall
Is a waterfall

So you can hurt, hurt me bad
But I’ll still raise the flag

It was waterfall
A waterfall

Every tear
Every tear
Every teardrop is a waterfall
Every tear
Every tear
Every teardrop is a waterfall

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: MICROSCOPE/MADS LANGER

If you put my heart under a microscope
You probably gonna wonder
Why it's in such a critical condition
And if it scares you of to look at my horoscope
I'm not gonna blame you
I'm not gonna wonder
I am holding on to someone I can't hold no more
And sadly I've been here before
I can't let go, no
I am reaching out for someone
I can't reach no more
It feels like my heart is nailed to the floor

I guess I've sacrifices everything for my dreams
And now it's completely out of control
Things are not at all as they seem
But it is hard to navigate in a chaotic mind
It's easier to ask for forgiveness
And for permission
I am holding on to someone
I can't hold no more
And sadly I've been here before
I can't let go no
I am reaching out for someone
I can't reach no more
It feels like my heart is nailed to the floor

If you put my heart under a microscope
You probably gonna wonder
Why it's in such a critical condition

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: INTO THE WILDERNESS/BURNING HEARTS

The Alaskan tundra and the wild bears
I am returning to that nightmare

Life and death are given a different meaning
In grizzly kingdom above the treeline where the permafrost’s growing deeper
I could never climb those mountains, I could never be
Sleeping safely under the same stars as Timothy

Into the wilderness
Away from the lonelyness
Into the wilderness
Away from the lonelyness

You walked with the foxes dancing ’round your feet
They followed you to the last sleep
You walked with the foxes dancing ’round your feet
They followed you into your dreams
You walked with the foxes dancing ’round your feet
They followed you to the last sleep
You walked with the foxes dancing ’round your feet
And they followed you

Into the wilderness
Away from the lonelyness
Into the wilderness
Away from the lonelyness

The animal with the strongest paw
Mixed friends with prey, it’s nature’s law
I could never climb those mountains, I could never be
Sleeping safely under the same stars as Timothy

Into the wilderness
Away from the lonelyness
Into the wilderness
Away from the lonelyness

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: PERTH/BON IVER

Iʼm tearing up, across your face
Move dust through the light
To find your name
It's only faint
This is not a place
Not yet awake, I'm raised to make

Still alive for you, love
Still alive for you, love
Still alive for you, love

In a matter of a month
From forests, for the soft
Gotta know been lead aloft
So rid of all your stories
What I know, what it is, is boring, wire it up
Now breaking new ground

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE DAILY MAIL/RADIOHEAD

A Glastonbury, a sorpresa.




The moonies are up on a mountain
The lunatics have taken over the asylum
Waiting on the rapture

Singing we're here
To keep your prices down
Feed you to the hounds
To the Daily Mail
Together, together

You made a pig's ear
You made a mistake
Paid off security
And got through the gate
You got away with it
But we lie in wait

Where's the truth?
What's the use?
In hanging round
Lost and found
And with your head in the sand
Fat chance, no plan
No regard for human life
You'll keep time
You've no right
You're fast to lose
You're willing to lose
To jump the queue
Go back again
President
For life
Lord of all
The flies in the sky
The beasts of the earth
The fish in the sea
Have lost command

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: VICTORY DANCE/MY MORNING JACKET

Should I close my eyes and prophesize
Hoping maybe someday come
Should I wet the ground with my own tears
Crying over whats been done
Should I lift the dirt and plant the seed
If you know I'll never grow
Should I wet the ground with the sweat from my brow
And believe in my good work
My good work
My good work
My good work

Hey there, I'm flying up above
Looking down on the tired earth
And I can see, I can see potential
Speaking through you, speaking to you
From all of heaven's possibilities
Power, hey do know how it works
Do you know that the meek, they shall inherit the earth
You should work, you should work
Leaving with something of the family

Should I hit the water or stay on dry land
Even though I've never swam
Take machete into the brush
Though at first there is no path
Taste the war paint on my tongue
As it's dripping with my sweat
Place my gaze in the futures path
Seeing things that ain't come yet

Hope to watch the victory dance
After whole day's work is done
Hope to watch the victory dance
In the evening's setting sun
Hope to watch the victory dance
over many lives to come
Hope to watch the victory dance
In the evening's setting sun
Setting sun
setting sun
setting sun

Hope to dance the victory dance
After whole day's work is done
Hope to dance the victory dance
In the evening's setting sun
Hope to dance the victory dance
Over many lives to come
Hope to dance the victory dance
In the evening's setting sun

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE CIGARETTE DUET/PRINCESS CHELSEA

It's just a cigarette and it cannot be that bad
Honey don't you love me and you know it makes me sad
It's just a cigarette like you always use to do
I was do from then I don't need them to be cool

It's just a cigarette and it hurts your pretty lungs
Well it's only twice a week so there's not much other chance
It's just a cigarette and soon be only ten
Honey can you trust me when I want to stop I can

It's just a cigarette and it's just a Marlboro Light
Maybe but it isn't worth that we fight
It's just a cigarette that I got from Jamie Lee
She's gonna get a smack and I'm gonna give you three

It's just a cigarette and I only did it once
(It's just a cigarette and soon be only ten)
It's just a cigarette and it's only twice a week
(It will make you sick girl, there's not much other chance)
It's just a cigarette and I'm sorry that I did
(It's just a cigarette and we're sorry that we did)
Honey can you trust me when I want to stop I can

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: STAIRCASE/RADIOHEAD

A Walk Down The Staircase, un pezzo acustico che Thom Yorke suonava da solista lo scorso anno, è cresciuto, ed è diventato un brano dei Radiohead, intitolato semplicemente Staircase. Si tratta di un'anticipazione dello showcase From The Basement, in rete dal 1° luglio, durante il quale la band di Oxford suonerà per intero l'ultimo album, The King Of Limbs. Per l'occasione, è stato reclutato anche un sesto elemento, il batterista Clive Deamer , che ha suonato assieme a Phil Selway.




A walk down the staircase
A magnetic pull
Back to the other place
Where I cannot go
I’m sending a chopper
To steal you away

The pot is full
Let me take control
Let me take control
The pot is full
Of secrets to be told
Of secrets to be told

I have always
And always will

The pot is full
Let me take control
Let me take control
The pot is full
Of secrets to be told
Of secrets to be told

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: APPLE CARTS/DAMON ALBARN

L'opera prima di Damon Albarn, ovvero la sua prima opera teatrale. Del resto, dai Blur in poi, tutto quello che tocca (dai Gorillaz a The Good, The Bad & The Queen) se proprio non diventa oro, quantomeno riluce.

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SIGN 'O' THE TIMES/PRINCE

In France a skinny man
Died of a big disease with a little name
By chance his girlfriend came across a needle
And soon she did the same
At home there are seventeen year old boys
And their idea of fun
Is being in a gang called the Disciples
High on crack, toting a machine gun
Time, time

Hurricane Annie ripped the ceiling of a church
And killed everyone inside
You turn on the telly and every other story
Is telling you somebody died
Sister killed her baby 'cause she could afford to feed it
And were sending people to the moon
In september my cousin tried reefer for the very first time
Now he's doing horse, it's june
Times, times

Its silly, no?
When a rocket ship explodes
And everybody still wants to fly
Some say a man ain't happy
Unless a man truly dies, oh why
Time, time

Baby make a speech, star wars fly
Neighbors just shine it on
But if a night falls and a bomb falls
Will anybody see the dawn
Time, times

Its silly, no?
When a rocket blows
And everybody still wants to fly
Some say a man ain't happy, truly
Until a man truly dies
Oh why, oh why, sign o' the times
Time, time

Sign o' the times mess with your mind
Hurry before it's to late
Let's fall in love, get married, have a baby
Well call him nate, if it's a boy
Time, time
Time, time

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HOLDIN ON TO BLACK METAL/MY MORNING JACKET

It's a darkness you can't deny
But it don't belong in a grown up mind
Distortion finds its place in a youngsters eyes
Coming into life you need its grind
But at a certain point you got to let it go
Or it will cross the permanent threshold
You know you gotta find it out in something else good
Oh, black metal you're so misunderstood!

Holdin on to black metal
(Black metal)
Holdin on to black metal
(Black metal)
Black metal you've been holding on too long

Oh, black metal so misunderstood
Deep black service under Lucifer's hood
Black metal steals souls young, enough is enough
Wants refills out of Lucifer's cup
Black metal need to be and your teenage pop
Look at you starchild ur all grown up
But still holdin on to black metal
Still holdin on to black metal
(Black metal)
Still holdin on to black metal
(Black metal)
Black metal you've been holding on too long

Catching waves on Lucifer's beach
Taking shade underneath Lucifer's trees
Getting sustenance from Lucifer's peach
Oh, black metal it's a fact in all your speech

Holdin on to black metal
(Black metal)
Holdin on to black metal
(Black metal)
Black metal you've been holding on too long

(Black metal, black metal)
Oh, bring them to me
(Black metal)
Oh, making me think
(Black metal)
One, two, three, let's rock

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: NOT MY IDEA/GARBAGE

I bit my tongue and stood in line
With not much to believe in
I bought into what I was sold
And ended up with nothing

This is not my idea of a good time
This is not my idea of a good time
This is not my idea of a good time
This is not my idea

You thought that I would never see
What was meant for you was meant for me
I was distracted at the time
Forget about yours now what about mine?

This is not my idea of a good time
This is not my idea of a good time
This is not my idea of a good time
This is not my idea

You thought I was a little girl
You thought I was a little mouse
You thought you'd take me by surprise
Now I'm here burning down your house

This is not my idea of a good time
This is not my idea of a good time
This is not my idea of a good time
This is not my idea
