Stupenda versione live di una bellissima canzone.

Nile Rodgers and The Chic - At Last I Am Free

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZuroEeJZCQ

At last I am free
I can hardly see in front of me
I can hardly see in front of me

At last I am free
I can hardly see in front of me
I can hardly see in front of me

I'm lonely, please listen to what I say
I can't go on livin' life this way
I've tried and I've tried to make you see
You call this love, all this lyin'
My friend, it just can't be

At last I am free
I can hardly see in front of me
I can hardly see in front of me

At last I am free
I can hardly see in front of me
I can hardly see in front of me

I'm lonely, please hold me
Come closer, my dear
It feels so good just havin' you near
But who am I foolin'
When I know it's not real
I can't hide all this hurt and pain
Inside I feel

At last I am free
I can hardly see in front of me
I can hardly see in front of me

Jeff Buckley e Elizabeth Fraser - All Flowers In Time Bend Towards The Sun

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ui3JZkITEkA

my eyes are
a baptism
oh i am filth
and sing her
to my face
oh phantom elusive thing oh,

all flowers in time bend towards the sun
i know you say that there's no-one for you
but here is one,
all flowers in time bend towards the sun
i know you say that there's no-one for you
but here is one, here is one... here is one

aah, ooh...
one that can never be known
either all drunk with the world at her feet
or sober with no place to go

all flowers in time bend towards the sun
i know you say that there's no-one for you
but here is one,
all flowers in time bend towards the sun
i know you say that there's no-one for you
but here is one, here is one... here is one

aah, ooh...
we could go (......)
we can travel round
fading farther from me
with your face in my window call

when will you weep for me
sweet willow

it's ok to be angry
but not to hurt me
your happiness, yes, yes, yes
darling, darling,
oooh...

all flowers in time bend towards the sun
i know you say that there's no-one for you
but here is one,
all flowers in time bend towards the sun
i know you say that there's no-one for you
but here is one, here is one... here is one

Alice - Il Re del Mondo

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkmgW-1_NKQ

Strano come il rombo degli aerei da caccia un tempo
stonasse con il ritmo delle piante al sole sui balconi
e poi silenzio, e poi lontano il tuono di cannoni a freddo
e dalle radio dei segnali in codice.
Un giorno in cielo, fuochi di Bengala
la Pace ritornò, ma il Re del Mondo
ci tiene prigioniero il Cuore.

Nei vestiti bianchi a ruota Echi delle Danze Sufi
Nelle metro giapponesi, oggi, macchine d'Ossigeno
Più diventa tutto inutile e più credi che sia vero
e il giorno della Fine non ti servirà lInglese.
E sulle Biciclette verso Casa
la Vita ci sfiorò, ma il Re del Mondo
ci tiene prigioniero il Cuore.


Alice - Luna Indiana

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVv8KCGnqko

Quel tè preso in Rajastan
sai mi emoziona
e poi penso al Taj mahall.
Preghiere, echi senza fine
profumi, cerco tra i giardini
che cosa pensano gli dei di noi.

Fiabe, eroi di più leggende
amori, e storie di re
con regine quasi sante
e poi sola
profumi di uno stagno
lunghe sere per scoprire
luce della luna
che il tempo passa e noi non siamo dei.

Luce della luna
il tempo passa e noi non siamo dei.

IL re del mondo (fantastica) è però, se non erro, di battiato...

BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER (SIMON & GARFUNKEL)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6gyUotqwPM (by Johnny Cash)

When you' re weary feeling small
When tears are in your eyes I'll dry them all
I'm on your side oh when times get rough
And friends just can t be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

When you re down and out
When you re on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you ooh
I'll take your part oh when darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

Sail on silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
Oh if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

Johnny Cash » Folsom Prison Blues

I hear the train a comin'
it's rolling round the bend
and I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when,
I'm stuck in Folsom prison, and time keeps draggin' on
but that train keeps a rollin' on down to San Anton..
When I was just a baby my mama told me. Son,
always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns.
But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die
now every time I hear that whistle I hang my head and cry..

I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car
they're probably drinkin' coffee and smoking big cigars.
Well I know I had it coming, I know I can't be free
but those people keep a movin'
and that's what tortures me...

Well if they'd free me from this prison,
if that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move just a little further down the line
far from Folsom prison, that's where I want to stay
and I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away....

[tiffany rayne]

IL re del mondo (fantastica) è però, se non erro, di battiato...

Anche luna indiana è di Battiato, solo che in questo caso entrambe le canzoni vengono interpretate da Alice. Non per nulla sono tratte da un disco che si chiama gioielli rubati.

[scb]

capisco. Quindi tu ti riferivi proprio alla versione di Alice. Cmq anche a me quella canzone ha sempre dato i brividi, soprattutto quando, nella versione originale, alla fine interviene il violoncello...fantastica

No Means No - I've Got A Gun


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPeEdbGf ... re=related


All that you fucking got why don't you give it to me
That Raiders baseball cap would sure look good on me
I walk the streets at night and in my fantasy
All of the girls I pass have got the hots for me
I want a million bucks, I want a limousine
I want a jet to fly me to the Caribbean
You're gonna see my face on all the magazines
You're gonne hear me scream

I gotta gun, I'm gonna finally be someone
I gotta gun, I'm gonna cut somebody down
I gotta gun, I'm gonna finallly be someone
I gotta gun, I'm gonna shoot somebody

My Pop is dead, my Mom si shooting methadrine
All that I know is see it on TV screen
I kill the fucking starts, that is my fantasy
That fucking phoney geeks don't mean alot to me
I got no special love for reality
I got no fucking views on foreign policy
I'm gonna go dontown, I'm gonna have some fun
I'm gonna shoot someone

I gotta gun, I'm gonna finally be someone
I gotta gun, I'm gonna cut somebody down
I gotta gun, I'm gonna finallly be someone
I gotta gun, I'm gonna shoot somebody


The AM-PM guy is bleeding On the floor
The city cops are kicking in the swinging
does
I turn around, I know my fucking life is done
It's time to have sonne fun

I gotta gun, I'm gonna finally be someone
I gotta gun, I'm gonna cut somebody down
I gotta gun, I'm gonna finallly be someone
I gotta gun, I'm gonna shoot somebody

I'm gonna Shoot somehody
You

Virginiana Miller - La Verità Sul Tennis

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlM6bIJOrt4

Dea pagana del sole sul campo centrale
spero in una volè di sguardi per me - io ti spio
Si mi piace guardare, godermi lo stile che hai
e rodermi il cuore di panna al bar
ma nessuno lo sa, no nessuno lo sa - io ti spio
Tesa fino al gemito, fiato reso libero
vita in fuga lungolinea
e sotto la doccia scivolava la bella vacanza
fra i pini di Roma come la schiuma, come l’età
ma nessuno lo sa, no nessuno lo sa - io ti spio
Nessuno sa, nessuno immagina che ci penso ancora
nessuno sa, nessuno immagina che mi manchi ancora
nessuno sa che pensando a te io mi masturbo ancora
la verità, la verità sul tennis nessuno sa, nessuno immagina

[misha71]

So many feelings
end up in here
left so alone I'm with
oh, an atmoshere
I'm sick and I'm tired
of reasoning
just want to break out
shake off this skin

I can't escape myself

All my problems
lume larger than life
I canswallow another slice
Seems like my shadow
marks every strike
can't learn to live with
what's trapped inside

I can't escape myself

So many feelings
end up in here
left so alone I'm with
oh, an atmoshere
I'm sick and I'm tired
of reasoning
just want to break out
shake off this skin

I can't escape myself

Cake - Rock'n'Roll Lifestyle

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mh1i5Fe88ls

Well, your CD collection looks shiny and costly.
How much did you pay for your bad Moto Guzzi?
And how much did you spend on your black leather jacket?
Is it you or your parents in this income tax bracket?

Now tickets to concerts and drinking at clubs,
Sometimes for music that you haven't even heard of.
And how much did you pay for your rock'n'roll t-shirt
That proves you were there,
That you heard of them first?

How do you afford your rock'n'roll lifestyle?
How do you afford your rock'n'roll lifestyle?
How do you afford your rock'n'roll lifestyle?
Ah, tell me.

How much did you pay for the chunk of his guitar,
The one he ruthlessly smashed at the end of the show?
And how much will he pay for a brand new guitar,
One which he'll ruthlessly smash at the end of another show?
And how long will the workers keep building him new ones?
As long as their soda cans are red, white, and blue ones.
And how long will the workers keep building him new ones?
As long as their soda cans are red, white, and blue ones.

Aging black leather and hospital bills,
Tattoo removal and dozens of pills.
Your liver pays dearly now for youthful magic moments,
But rock on completely with some brand new components.

How do you afford your rock'n'roll lifestyle?
How do you afford your rock'n'roll lifestyle?
How do you afford your rock'n'roll lifestyle?

Excess ain't rebellion.
You're drinking what they're selling.
Your self-destruction doesn't hurt them.
Your chaos won't convert them.
They're so happy to rebuild it.
You'll never really kill it.
Yeah, excess ain't rebellion.
You're drinking what they're selling.
Excess ain't rebellion.
You're drinking,
You're drinking,
You're drinking what they're selling.

Wall Of Voodoo - Mexican Radio

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkHFjm_9iew

i feel a hot wind on my shoulder
and the touch of a world that is older
i turn the switch and check the number
i leave it on when in bed i slumber
i hear the rhythms of the music
i buy the product and never use it
i hear the talking of the dj
can't understand, just what does he say?

i'm on a mexican radio

i dial it in and tune the station
they talk about the u.s. inflation
i understand just a little
no comprende - it's a riddle

i'm on a mexican radio

i wish i was in tiajuana
eating barbequed iguana
i take requests on the telephone
i'm on a wavelength far from home
i feel a hot wind on my shoulder
i dial it in from the south of the border
i hear the talking of the dj
can't understand, just what does he say?

i'm on a mexican radio

what does he say?

TOM PATTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS - FREE FALLING

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gqT6En2O78

She's a good girl, loves her mama
Loves Jesus and America too
She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too

It's a long day livin' in Reseda
There's a freeway runnin' through the yard
And I'm a bad boy, 'cause I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart

And I'm free, I'm free fallin'

All the vampires walkin' through the valley
Move west down Ventura Blvd
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
All the good girls are home with broken hearts

And I'm free, I'm free fallin'

I wanna glide down over Mulholland
I wanna write her name in the sky
I wanna free fall out into nothin'
Gonna leave this world for awhile

And I'm free, I'm free fallin'
