I MIEI 100 CAPOLAVORI DELLA STORIA DELLA MUSICA (#23)
Boston - More Than A Feeling (1976)
I looked out this morning and the sun was gone Turned on some music to start my day I lost myself in a familiar song I closed my eyes and I slipped away
Its more than a feeling, when I hear that old song they used to play (more than a feeling) I begin dreaming (more than a feeling) till I see marianne walk away I see my marianne walkin away
So many people have come and gone Their faces fade as the years go by Yet I still recall as I wander on As clear as the sun in the summer sky
Its more than a feeling, when I hear that old song they used to play (more than a feeling) I begin dreaming (more than a feeling) till I see marianne walk away I see my marianne walkin away
When Im tired and thinking cold I hide in my music, forget the day And dream of a girl I used to know I closed my eyes and she slipped away She slipped awa y. she slipped away.
Its more than a feeling, when I hear that old song they used to play (more than a feeling) I begin dreaming (more than a feeling) till I see marianne walk away I see my marianne walkin away

Peter Gabriel - Solsbury Hill (1977)
Climbing up on solsbury hill I could see the city light Wind was blowing, time stood still Eagle flew out of the night
He was something to observe Came in close, I heard a voice Standing stretching every nerve I had to listen had no choice
I did not believe the information Just had to trust imagination My heart was going boom boom, boom Son, he said, grab your things, Ive come to take you home.
To keeping silence I resigned My friends would think I was a nut Turning water into wine Open doors would soon be shut
So I went from day to day Tho my life was in a rut till I thought of what Id say Which connection I should cut
I was feeling part of the scenery I walked right out of the machinery My heart was going boom boom boom Hey, he said, grab your things, Ive come to take you home. Yeah back home
When illusion spin her net Im never where I want to be And liberty she pirouette When I think that I am free
Watched by empty silhouettes Who close their eyes, but still can see No one taught them etiquette I will show another me
Today I dont need a replacement Ill tell them what the smile on my face meant My heart was going boom boom boom Hey, I said, you can keep my things, theyve come to take me home.
Arrampicatomi sulla collina di Solsbury Potevo vedere la luce della città Il vento soffiava, il tempo stava immobile Laquila ha volato dalla notte
Lui era qualcosa da osservare Avvicinatomi, ho sentito una voce Restando in piedi, allungando ogni nervo Ho dovuto ascoltare, non ho avuto scelta
Non ho creduto le informazioni Giusto ha dovuto fidarsi dellimmaginazione Il mio cuore batteva boom boom boom "Figlio", egli disse, "afferra le tue cose, sono venuto per riportarti a casa."
Mi sono rassegnato a mantenere il silenzio I miei amici penserebbero che io sia uno svitato. Acqua di rotazione in vino Le porte aperte presto sarebbero chiuse
Così sono andato da un giorno allaltro Sebbene la mia vita fosse una routine Finchè pensai a cosa avrei detto Quale collegamento dovessi tagliare
Mi sentivo parte della scena Ho camminato giusto fuori dal macchinario Il mio cuore batteva boom boom boom "Hey", egli disse, "afferra le tue cose, sono venuto per riportarti a casa." Yeah, di nuovo a casa.
Quando lillusione fila la sua rete Non sono mai dove voglio essere E la libertà piroetta Quando penso di essere libero
Guardato da sagome vuote Che chiudono gli occhi, ma ancora possono vedere Nessuno hanno insegnato loro il etiquette Mostrerò un altro me.
Oggi non ho bisogno di una sostituzione Dirò loro cosa significava il sorriso sulla mia faccia Il mio cuore batteva boom boom boom "Hey", ho detto, "potete tenervi le mie cose, sono venuti per riportarmi a casa."
Note: il video è delirante...non è ovviamente dei BOC però l’audio è buono e quindi l’ho messo. Per chi non li conoscesse i Boards Of Canada sono un duo scozzese di musicisti elettronici dalla raffinatezza melodica incredibile. Consigliati vivamente!

Eric Clapton - Cocaine (1977)
If you wanna hang out youve got to take her out; cocaine. If you wanna get down, down on the ground; cocaine. She dont lie, she dont lie, she dont lie; cocaine.
If you got bad news, you wanna kick them blues; cocaine. When your day is done and you wanna run; cocaine. She dont lie, she dont lie, she dont lie; cocaine.
If your thing is gone and you wanna ride on; cocaine. Dont forget this fact, you cant get it back; cocaine. She dont lie, she dont lie, she dont lie; cocaine.
She dont lie, she dont lie, she dont lie; cocaine.
Note: Anche se scritta da JJ Cale è sicuramente linterpretazione più efficace. Grandissimo chitarrista il nostro "Slow Hand"!!

Rod Stewart - Baby Jane (1983)
Baby jane dont leave me hanging on the line I knew you when you had no one to talk to Now youre moving in high society Dont forget I know secrets about you I used to think you were on my side But now Im no longer sure I wish I knew what I know now before
When I give my heart again I know its gonna last forever No one tell me where or when I know its gonna last forever
Baby jane dont it make you feel sad Just when I thought that we were winning You and I were so close in every way Dont time fly when youre loving and laughing Ive said goodbye so many times The situation aint all that new Optimisms my best defense Ill get through without you
When I give my heart again I know its gonna last forever No one tell me where or when I know its gonna last forever I wont be that dumb again I know its gotta last forever When I fall in love again I know its gonna last forever
Baby jane Ive said all I want to say Go your own way dont think twice about me Cause Ive got ideas and plans of my own So long darlin Ill miss you believe me The lesson learned was so hard to swallow But I know that Ill survive Im gonna take a good look at myself and cry
When I give my heart again I know its gonna last forever No one tell me where or when I know its gonna last forever When I fall in love next time I know its gonna last forever I wont be that dumb again I know itll last forever
Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, Mata ah-oo hima de Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, Himitsu wo shiri tai
You’re wondering who I am-machine or mannequin With parts made in Japan, I am the modren man
I’ve got a secret I’ve been hiding under my skin My heart is human, my blood is boiling, my brain I.B.M. So if you see me acting strangely, don’t be surprised I’m just a man who needed someone, and somewhere to hide To keep me alive-just keep me alive Somewhere to hide to keep me alive
I’m not a robot without emotions-I’m not what you see I’ve come to help you with your problems, so we can be free I’m not a hero, I’m not a saviour, forget what you know I’m just a man whose circumstances went beyond his control Beyond my control-we all need control I need control-we all need control
I am the modren man, who hides behind a mask So no one else can see my true identity
Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, domo...domo Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, domo...domo Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, domo...domo Thank you very much, Mr. Roboto For doing the jobs that nobody wants to And thank you very much, Mr. Roboto For helping me escape just when I needed to Thank you-thank you, thank you I want to thank you, please, thank you
The problem’s plain to see: too much technology Machines to save our lives. Machines dehumanize.
The time has come at last To throw away this mask So everyone can see My true identity... I’m Kilroy! Kilroy! Kilroy! Kilroy!
Note: il bello di questo gruppo e di questo pezzo è il lato glam e prog rock... sembra quasi un brano di un musical rock, affascinante!
Note 2: ah per i più appassionati di video...il video originale visibile seguendo il link che ho messo in cima ispirò poi il video di "Around The World" dei Daft Punk...guardate un pò...

Carl Orff - Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi (1937)
O Fortuna O Fortune, velut luna like the moon statu variabilis, you are changeable, semper crescis ever waxing aut decrescis; and waning; vita detestabilis hateful life nunc obdurat first oppresses et tunc curat and then soothes ludo mentis aciem, as fancy takes it; egestatem, poverty potestatem and power dissolvit ut glaciem. it melts them like ice.
Sors immanis Fate - monstrous et inanis, and empty, rota tu volubilis, you whirling wheel, status malus, you are malevolent, vana salus well-being is vain semper dissolubilis, and always fades to nothing, obumbrata shadowed et velata and veiled michi quoque niteris; you plague me too; nunc per ludum now through the game dorsum nudum I bring my bare back fero tui sceleris. to your villainy.
Sors salutis Fate is against me et virtutis in health michi nunc contraria, and virtue, est affectus driven on et defectus and weighted down, semper in angaria. always enslaved. Hac in hora So at this hour sine mora without delay corde pulsum tangite; pluck the vibrating strings; quod per sortem since Fate sternit fortem, strikes down the string man, mecum omnes plangite! everyone weep with me!
Note: Grandissimi Camel! Introvabile Rhayader in integrale su youtube...dal minuto 2.35 comincia! Vi consiglio di ascoltarlo in versione registrata da studio (o album).

Talking Heads - Road To Nowhere (1985)
Well we know where were goin But we dont know where weve been And we know what were knowin But we cant say what weve seen And were not little children And we know what we want And the future is certain Give us time to work it out
Were on a road to nowhere Come on inside Takin that ride to nowhere Well take that ride
Im feelin okay this mornin And you know, Were on the road to paradise Here we go, here we go
Chorus
Maybe you wonder where you are I dont care Here is where time is on our side Take you there...take you there
Were on a road to nowhere Were on a road to nowhere Were on a road to nowhere
Theres a city in my mind Come along and take that ride And its all right, baby, its all right
And its very far away But its growing day by day And its all right, baby, its all right
They can tell you what to do But theyll make a fool of you And its all right, baby, its all right
