24 hours of happy

Prendi un artista incredibile. Uno di quelli che non sbaglia un colpo. Uno di quelli che ha fatto features con chiunque.

Mettici poi che è un produttore formidabile. Uno di quelli che riesce ad avere ancora idee sorprendenti al di là del solito video a sfondo sessuale.

Aggiungici un vagone di “happiness”…. e questo è il risultato: 24 hours of happy!

Pharrell Williams, ti prego sposami!

_SameLove_

I can’t stop singing this song in my head (and even out loud)

I do not get why in 2013 we are still fighting for gay civil rights and marriage equality! What are we talking about?!

Humans are definitely the most stupid creatures on the earth. Even more than pigeons. Well probably on the same level!

Music for Marriage Equality (MME) is a project created to encourage WA State voters to APPROVE REF 74 and legalize marriage equality. Some of the Bands/ Supporters are: Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Death Cab For Cutie,MACKLEMORE & Ryan Lewis and many many others!

Listen to this song and VOTE YES ON 74!!

Something_worth_listening_to

And I came home_Like a stone.

And I fell heavy into your arms
These days of darkness_which we’ve known
Will blow away with this new sun_

And I’ll kneel down_wait for now
and I’ll kneel down_know my ground

_and I will wait, I will wait for you_

So break my step_and relent
_you forgave and I won’t forget_
know what we’ve seen_ and him with less
now in some way__Shake the excess__

_But I will wait, I will wait for you_

So I’ll be bold_as well as strong
and use my head alongside my heart
So tame my flesh_and fix my eyes
That tethered mind free from the lies_

Raise my hands_paint my spirit gold
_and bow my head_keep my heart slow

Cause I will wait, I will wait for you.

After the Brit Awards of last night, I definitely love these guys.  The band won an award for Best British Group and that was more than deserved. I really love folk music_ and the particularity of Mumford & Sons is that  all band members variously play guitar, drums, keyboard instruments, bass guitar, and traditional folk instruments such as banjo, mandolin,and resonator guitar.

Plus they were increasing their visibility in West London and together with other bands, gave rise to the label “West London folk scene”. Marcus Mumford said:

Someone got over-excited about a few bands who live in a hundred-mile radius and put it in a box to sell it as a package. It’s a community, not a scene. It’s not exclusive_

A paradise inhabited by devils, un set su Flickr.

Stanca, rassegnata, innocente, invasata
Nuda, svergognata, tradita, condannata
Ma è la mia città
Sporca, avvelenata, incivile, incendiata
Sempre affollata, devota, ammutinata
Ma è la mia città
E la nottata non passa mai
Bella, appariscente, invidiata, invadente
Volgare, indecente, violenta, incandescente
Ma è la mia città
Voce incosciente, insidiosa, insolente,
Amara, ammaliante, miracolata, irriverente
Ma è la mia città
Ma domani chi lo sa
Vedrai che cambierà
Magari sarà vero
Ma non cambierà mai niente
Se ci credo solo io.

E. Bennato

 

Tired, resigned, innocent, possessed

Naked, shameless, betrayed, condemned

But it is my city

Dirty, poisoned, uncivilized, burnt

Always crowded, devoted, disobedient

But it is my city

And the night never ends

Beautiful, flashy, envied, intrusive

Rough, obscene, violent, incandescent

But it is my city

Unconscious voice, sneaky, insolent

Bitter, bewitching, miraculous, irreverent

But it is my city

But tomorrow who knows

Something will change

May be it is true

But nothing is gonna change 

If I am the only one to believe in.

“Queen & Lionheart”

Taking over this town, they should worry,
But these problems aside I think I taught you well.
That we won’t run, and we won’t run, and we won’t run.

And in the winter night sky ships are sailing,
Looking down on these bright blue city lights.
And they won’t wait, and they won’t wait, and they won’t wait.
We’re here to stay, we’re here to stay, we’re here to stay.

Howling ghosts they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you’re a king and I’m a lionheart.
A lionheart.

His crown lid up the way as we moved slowly
Pass the wondering eyes of the ones that were left behind.
Though far away, though far away, though far away
We’re still the same, we’re still the same, we’re still the same.

Howling ghost they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you’re a king and I’m a lionheart.
And in the sea that’s painted black,
Creatures lurk below the deck
But you’re the king and I’m a lionheart.

And as the world comes to an end
I’ll be here to hold your hand
Cause you’re my king and I’m your lionheart.

Hair (is not just a musical)

Io senza capelli
sono una pagina senza quadretti
un profumo senza bottiglia
una porta chiusa senza la maniglia
biglia senza pista
un pescatore sprovvisto della sua migliore esca
don Giovanni senza una tresca
io senza te uno scettro senza re

Non voglio più chiedere scusa
se sulla testa porto questa specie di medusa
o foresta
non è soltanto un segno
di protesta
ma è un rifugio per gli insetti
un nido per gli uccelli
che si amano tranquilli fra i miei pensieri
e il cielo
sono la parte di me che
mi somiglia di più

Vivo sempre insieme ai miei capelli.

Non sono venuto in motocicletta
non mi sono pettinato con le bombe a mano
non ho messo le dita
dentro la spina
non mi sono lavato con
la candeggina
sono uno di quelli che porta i suoi lunghi capelli
per scelta e non usa trucchi
e voi levatevi la parrucca

Io vivo sempre insieme ai miei capelli nel mondo!!
