    I Only Said (My Bloody Valentine, Loveless, 1991 )

    Mi andava di aggiungere questa canzone perchè è speciale.

    Ditemi Voi se ho torto o ho  ragione.

    Ciao.

      

    See there run away you said
    To go you were it, you were it
    To lay underneath the red sky there
    To lay under her, I want her there

    See you there, under her, and under
    To go you were there and Im slow
    To lay over her and Im slow, oh
    To lay under her, Ive grown away, oh

    Time Baby III (Medicine, The Crow Original SoundTrack, 1993)

    Medicine? Cocteau Twins?....come volete...questa è una gemma.....
     
    Medicine - Time Baby 3 (1994)
     
     
    Sometimes it rains inside my head
    And the words run dry
    Now walls of breathing hands
    Are reaching up to touch my thigh

    No they don't have to take you away
    No they don't have to take you away
    No they don't have to take you away
    No they don't have to take you away

    Sometimes it's bright inside my head
    Except at the back of my eyes
    And hands of breathing walls
    Are reaching up

    No they don't have to take you away
    No they don't have to take you away
    No they don't have to take you away
    No they don't have to take you away
    (no no no no)
    Don't have to take you away

    Voglio Una Pelle Splendida (AfterHours, Hai Paura Del Buio?, 1996)

     
     
      
     
     
     stringimi madre
    ho molto peccato
    ma la vita è un suicidio
    l'amore un rogo
    e voglio un pensiero superficiale
    che renda la pelle splendida

    senza un finale che faccia male
    coi cuori sporchi
    e le mani lavate
    a salvarmi
    vieni a salvarmi
    salvami
    bacia il colpevole
    se dice la verità
    ma si
    ma si
    ma si
    ma si

    passo le notti
    nero e cristallo
    a sceglier le carte
    che giocherei
    a maledire certe domande
    che forse era meglio
    non farsi mai

    e voglio un pensiero superficiale
    che renda la pelle splendida
    a salvarmi
    vieni a salvarmi
    salvami
    bacia il colpevole
    se dice la verità
    mercy
    mercy
    mercy
    mercy

    voglio un pensiero superficiale
    che renda la pelle splendida
    a salvarmi
    vieni a salvarmi
    salvami
    bacia il colpevole
    se dice la verità
    mercy
    mercy
    mercy
    mercy
     

    Killer Is Me (Alice In Chains, MTv Unplugged, 1994)

     
     
     
     
     
     
     Don't need a gun
    Pointed at me
    No need to run
    The killer is me
    The killer is me

    So the sun
    Shines upon me
    Im havin fun
    The killer is me

    Insane the mind
    In the name of me
    Cant find the time
    To let things be

    Insane the mind
    In the name of me
    Cant find the time
    To let things be
    Let things be

    Oh yeah... can I start over
    Oh yeah... can I start over
    And get over it

    So the sun
    Shines upon me
    Im havin fun
    The killer is me
    The killer is me
    The killer is me

    Oh yeah... can I start over
    Oh yeah... can I start over
    And get over it

    Since I Left You (The Avalanches,Since I Left You, 1999)

    Chi di voi ricordava questo video?
    e pensare che verso la fine dei '90 lo passavano a palla....ma d'altronde per il settore commerciale son tanti i fuochi di paglia....
    cmq a me il video piaceva tanto e,secondo me, nonostante sembrasse ilare e gioioso, nascondeva un senso di malinconia neanche poi così velato.......e quindi dopo averlo rivisto per puro caso domenica scorsa (e quindi non per puro caso, ma neanche no) mi sono ripromesso di metterlo qua.
    Per il resto niente di nuovo (anzi di definitivamente nuovo) tranne una gran bella serata sabato sera alla Darsena, con quei grandiosi dei Marta Sui Tubi, l'intervista etilica e altre chicche che non svelerò anche perchè è troppo facile starsene a casa a leggere i resoconti....le cose tocca viverle.
    Gran bel pranzo-motogp-studio oggi pomeriggio con Alessandro, fra pochi giorni l'orale dell'esame di Stato e poi boh....chissà...
    buonanotte e buona visione....
     
     
     
     Watch the steps
    Get a drink, have a good time now
    Welcome to paradise, paradise, paradise...

    Since I left you
    I found the world so new

    Since I left you
    I found the world so new

    I found the world so new

    Since I left you
    I found the world so new
    Everyday

    Since I left you
    I found the world so new
    Everyday

    Since I left you
    I found the world so new
    Everyday

    Since I left you
    I found the world so new
    Everyday
    Everyday

    Since I left you
    I found the world so new
    Everyday

    Since I left you
    I found the world so new
    Everyday

    I found the world so
    I found the world so new

    I found the world so
    I found the world so new

    Pornography (The Cure, Pornography, 1982)

    Questa canzone è un capolavoro, leggetevi il testo, intuitelo, traducetelo, fate quello che vi pare.
    Rendetevi un po' conto se anche voi non dovete curare la vostra sensazione di inquietudine, la vostra sickness....(ovvero se siete dei sickman anche voi.....)
    Rendetevene conto, ma non troppo, potrebbe essere pericoloso.
    Per il resto, prima di lasciarvi, che dire.....questo periodo va un po' a scazzo totale, non so che fare se non niente, affronto quest'esame di stato pensando di esser bocciato, vado in palestra, scrivo un po' di recensioni, ho visto Breakfast on Pluto (trooppo bello, come sempre grande Neil Jordan)Ro è qua, mando curriculum e aspetto...aspetto...mi sento la vita sfuttata da un pappone che si chiama "inutile quotidianeità", ora torna anche il titolo del post...
    tutta 'sta voglia di reagire manco c'è.
    Tornerà?
    Succederà qualcosa?
     
    Logicamente tutte queste piccole lamentele da blog non valgono niente di fronte a tanti altri drammi che fortunatamente non avvengono a me.
    Pensiamoci sempre un po' su...
     
     
     
     a hand in my mouth
    a life spills into the flowers
    we all look so perfect
    as we all fall down
    in an electric glare
    the old man cracks with age
    she found his last picture
    in the ashes of the fire
    an image of the queen
    echoes round the sweating bed
    sour yellow sounds inside my head
    in books
    and films
    and in life
    and in heaven
    the sound of slaughter
    as your body turns

    but it's too late

    one more day like today and i'll kill you
    a desire for flesh
    and real blood
    i'll watch you drown in the shower
    push my life through your open eyes

    i must fight this sickness
    find a cure
    i must fight this sickness...

    Aenima (Tool, Aenima, 1996)

    Inanzitutto si scrive Æenima....ma non melo accettava lassù nel titolo...inoltre....questa canzone è un capolavoro, l'album è un capolavoro (ma non è perfetto, l'album perfetto è Lateralus).....ed inoltre ricordo ancora i brividi a Roma la notte del mio 26esimo compleanno quando i 4 chiusero il concerto proprio con lei......

    A Voi.....

      
     
     Some say the end is near.
    Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
    I certainly hope we will.
    I sure could use a vacation from this

    Bullshit three ring circus sideshow of
    Freaks

    Here in this hopeless fucking hole we call LA
    The only way to fix it is to flush it all away.
    Any fucking time. Any fucking day.
    Learn to swim, I'll see you down in Arizona bay.

    Fret for your figure and
    Fret for your latte and
    Fret for your lawsuit and
    Fret for your hairpiece and
    Fret for your prozac and
    Fret for your pilot and
    Fret for your contract and
    Fret for your car.

    It's a
    Bullshit three ring circus sideshow of
    Freaks

    Here in this hopeless fucking hole we call LA
    The only way to fix it is to flush it all away.
    Any fucking time. Any fucking day.
    Learn to swim, I'll see you down in Arizona bay.

    Some say a comet will fall from the sky.
    Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves.
    Followed by faultlines that cannot sit still.
    Followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits.

    Some say the end is near.
    Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
    I certainly hope we will cuz
    I sure could use a vacation from this

    Stupid shit, silly shit, stupid shit...

    One great big festering neon distraction,
    I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied.

    Learn to swim.
    Learn to swim.
    Learn to swim.

    Mom is going to fix it all soon,
    Mom is coming round to put it back
    the way it oughtta be...

    Learn to swim.

    Fuck L Ron Hubbard and
    Fuck all his clones.
    Fuck all these gun-toting
    Hip gangster wannabes.

    Learn to swim.

    Fuck retro anything.
    Fuck your tattoos.
    Fuck all you junkies and
    Fuck your short memory.

    Learn to swim.

    Fuck smiley glad-hands
    With hidden agendas.
    Fuck these dysfunctional,
    Insecure actresses.

    Learn to swim.

    Cuz I'm praying for rain
    And I'm praying for tidal waves
    I wanna see the ground give way.
    I wanna watch it all go down.
    Mom please flush it all away.
    I wanna see it go right in and down.
    I wanna watch it go right in.
    Watch you flush it all away.

    Time to bring it down again.
    Don't just call me pessimist.
    Try and read between the lines.

    I can't imagine why you wouldn't
    Welcome any change, my friend.

    I wanna see it all come down.
    suck it down.
    flush it down.

    Survivalism (Nine Inch Nails, Year Zero, 2007)

     
     Eccolo qua il ritorno di Trent.....l'album parte bene tra Hyperpower e Survivalism c'è da spaccarsi ma....poi.....bhè, leggete dagheisha e lo scoprirete!
    Ciao ciao!
     
     
     I should have listened to her
    So hard to keep control
    We kept on eating but our
    Bloated bellies still not full
    She gave us all she had but
    We went and took some more
    Can't seem to shut her legs our
    Mother nature is a whore

    I got my propaganda I got revisionism
    I got my violence in high def ultra-realism
    All a part of this great nation
    I got my fist I got my plan I got survivalism

    Hypnotic sound of sirens
    Echoing through the street
    The cocking of the rifles
    The marching of the feet
    You see your world on fire
    Don't try to act surprised
    We did just what you told us
    Lost our faith along the way and found ourselves believing your lies

    I got my propaganda I got revisionism
    I got my violence in high def ultra-realism
    All a part of this great nation
    I got my fist I got my plan I got survivalism

    All bruised and broken bleeding
    She asked to take my hand
    I turned, just kept on walking
    But you did the same thing to me so please now I'm sure you'll understand

    I got my propaganda I got revisionism
    I got my violence in high def ultra-realism
    All a part of this great nation
    I got my fist I got my plan I got survivalism

    Allora.....il video è clamoroso....la canzone è figa ed il resto dell'album pure....loro sono i Cold War Kids e sono recensiti su dagheisha, da chi?

    A Voi
     
     
     
     
     Careless in our summer clothes splashing around
    in the muck and the mire
    Careless in our summer clothes splashing around
    in the muck and the mire

    fell asleep with stains
    cake deep in the knees
    what a pain

    now hang me up to dry
    you wrung me out
    too too too many times
    now hang me up to dry
    I'm pearly like the whites
    the whites of your eyes

    all mixed up in the wash
    hot water bleeding our colors
    all mixed up in the wash
    hot water bleeinding our colors

    now hang me up to dry
    you wrung me out
    too too too many times
    now hang me up to dry
    I'm pearly like the white
    the whites of your eyes

    now hang me up to dry
    you wrung me out
    too too too many times
    now hang me up to dry
    I'm pearly like the white
    the whites of your eyes

    now hang me up to dry
    you wrung me out
    too too too many times
    now hang me up to dry
    I'm pearly like the white
    the whites of your eyes

    Guerra (Litfiba, Desaparecido, 1986)

    Questa è una chicca assoluta, solo per voi, miei cari.....la canzone è stata pubblicata prima in un ep del 1982, poi su desaparecido.
    Ma come tutti noi che dobbiam fare le nostre gavette...anche i Litfiba ebbero da sudarselo il loro successo......e questo estratto è infatti del 1982
     
    A Voi....
     
     
     
      
     EIN ZWEI DREI VIER DER KRIEG!
    EIN ZWEI DREI VIER FEUER!
    Guardo
    Oltre il muro di vetro
    L'esercito che passa
    Uomini neri!
    Cerco In una mano chiusa
    La causa della morte di
    Uomini neri!
    GUERRA
    Aria vuota nelle strade
    Si muovono le ombre di
    Uomini neri!
    GUERRA
    Ma che cosa mi succede
    E dove sono gli occhi di
    Uomini neri!
    Uomini neri uh oh!
    Uomini neri è
    GUERRA è

    GUERRA
     

    Rooster (Alice In Chains, Dirt, 1992)

     
     
     
     Ain’t found a way to kill me yet
    Eyes burn with stinging sweat
    Seems every path leads me to nowhere
    Wife and kids household pet
    Army green was no safe bet
    The bullets scream to me from somewhere

    Here they come to snuff the Rooster
    Yeah here come the Rooster, yeah
    You know he ain’t gonna die
    No, no, no, ya know he ain’t gonna die

    Walkin’ tall machine gun man
    They spit on me in my home land
    Gloria sent me pictures of my boy
    Got my pills ’gainst mosquito death
    My buddy’s breathin’ his dyin’ breath
    Oh God please won’t you help me make it through

    Here they come to snuff the Rooster
    Yeah here come the Rooster, yeah
    You know he ain’t gonna die
    No, no, no ya know he ain’t gonna die
