How fragile we are...

On and on

The rain will fall

Like tears from a star...

Fragile

Jesse Cook - Sophie Milman

Blood would flow.

Flesh and steel are one.

Drying in the color of the evening sun.

Tomorrows rain will wash the stains away.

Something in our minds will always stay.

On and on

The rain will fall

Like tears from a star

On and on

The rain will say

How fragile we are

Perhaps this final light was meant

To clench a lifetimes arguement.

But nothing comes from violence

And nothing ever could.

All those born beneath an angry star

Lest we forget how fragile we are.

On and on

The rain will fall

Like tears from a star

On and on

The rain will say

How fragile we are

On and on

The rain will fall

Like tears from a star

On and on

The rain will say

How fragile we are

La notte è piccola

Happy

Rolling Stones

Well I never kept a dollar past sunset,

It always burned a hole in my pants.

Never made a school mama happy,

Never blew a second chance, oh no

I need a love to keep me happy,

I need a love to keep me happy.

Baby, baby keep me happy.

Always took candy from strangers,

Didn't wanna get me no trade.

Never want to be like papa,

Working for the boss ev'ry night and day.

I need a love to keep me happy,

I need a love, baby won't ya keep me happy.

Baby, won't ya keep me happy.

Baby, please keep me

I need a love to keep me happy,

I need a love to keep me happy.

Baby, baby keep me happy.

Never got a flash out of cocktails,

When I got some flesh off the bone.

Never got a lift out of Lear jets,

When I can fly way back home.

I need a love to keep me happy,

I need a love to keep me happy.

Baby, baby keep me happy.

Take me down...

little Susie, take me down

I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground

And you can send me dead flowers every morning

Send me dead flowers by the mail

Send me dead flowers to my wedding

And I won't forget to put roses on your grave......

Dead Flowers
Rolling Stones

Well, when you're sitting there

In your silk upholstered chair

Talking to some rich folks that you know

Well I hope you won't see me

In my ragged company

You know I could never be alone

Take me down little Susie, take me down

I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground

And you can send me dead flowers every morning

Send me dead flowers by the mail

Send me dead flowers to my wedding

And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

Well, when you're sitting back

In your rose pink Cadillac

Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day

I'll be in my basement room

With a needle and a spoon

And another girl to take my pain away

Take me down little Susie, take me down

I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground

And you can send me dead flowers every morning

Send me dead flowers by the mail

Send me dead flowers to my wedding

And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

Take me down little Susie, take me down

I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground

And you can send me dead flowers every morning

Send me dead flowers by the US mail

Say it with dead flowers at my wedding

And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

No I won't forget to put roses on your grave

Gimme...

Shelter

Rolling Stones

Oh, a storm is threat'ning

My very life today

If I don't get some shelter

Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away

War, children, it's just a shot away

It's just a shot away

War, children, it's just a shot away

It's just a shot away

Ooh, see the fire is sweepin'

Our very street today

Burns like a red coal carpet

Mad bull lost your way

War, children, it's just a shot away

It's just a shot away

War, children, it's just a shot away

It's just a shot away

Rape, murder!

It's just a shot away

Rape, murder!

It's just a shot away

Rape, murder!

It's just a shot away

The floods is threat'ning

My very life today

Gimme, gimme shelter

Or I'm gonna fade away

War, children, it's just a shot away

It's just a shot away

I tell you love, sister, it's just a kiss away

It's just a kiss away

Kiss away, kiss away

Pace e ristoro...

per I'anima mia lontano da qui

cerco lungo i viali di un unico cielo lontano da qui

cerco fra la gente che mi vive accanto........

Corale cantico

Antonella Ruggiero

Pace e ristoro per I'anima mia lontano da qui

cerco lungo i viali di un unico cielo lontano da qui

cerco fra la gente che mi vive accanto

L'anima mia di un lungo viaggio vivrà

Libera tra la gente libera

terra all'orizzonte

libera tra la gente

Libera lungo le vie d'oriente

L'anima mia di un lungo viaggio vivrà

nelle sere senza vento come un richiamo ,

corale cantico

cerco nel silenzio di un unico cielo

per l'anima mia corale cantico

terra all'orizzonte

libera tra la gente

Libera lungo le vie d'oriente

libera tra la gente

Dizzy Gillespie, Arturo Sandoval

Why Don't You Do Right

Like some other men do?

Why Don't You Do Right

Benny Goodman and Peggy Lee

You had plenty money 1922

You let other women make a fool of you

Why don't you do right

Like some other men do?

Sitting there wondering what it's all about

If you ain't got no money they are going to

Put you out

Why don't you do right

Like some other men do?

Get out of here and

Bring me some money too?

I fell for your jive and I took you in

Now all you got to offer me's a fifth of gin

Why don't you do right

Like some other men do?

Why don't you get out of here and

Bring me some money too?

Chi sono.....

dove sono
quando sono assente di me
da dove vengo, dove vado
dalla pupilla viziosa delle nuvole
la luna scende i gradini di grattacieli
per prendermi la vita.......
Chan Son Egocentrique

Franco Battiato

Avenue Park
my life in the dark
I with me
do you smile
for arabian style
I like hit
Miami Beach boys
children with toys
across the universe.

Chan-son egocentrique
self centred song
Chan-son egocentrique
self centred song.

Chi sono, dove sono
quando sono assente di me
da dove vengo, dove vado
dalla pupilla viziosa delle nuvole
la luna scende i gradini di grattacieli
per prendermi la vita.

Chan-son egocentrique ......

Central Park
I love in the dark
Ich bin klein
people sang
around the campfire ground
I remember
prehistoric sound
was the time of the dinosaur age
Oh, Nein.

Chan-son egocentrique .....

Mi dice
sui seni nudi muoio d'amore
quando vedrai la mia ragazza
dille che io l'amo.

Credimi, da soli si sta bene...

In due? È un esercito.

La solitudine

Giorgio Gaber

La solitudine
non è mica una follia
è indispensabile
per star bene in compagnia.

Uno c'ha tante idee
ma di modi di stare insieme
ce n'è solo due
c'è chi vive in piccole comuni o in tribù
la famiglia e il rapporto di coppia
c'è già nei capitoli precedenti,
ormai non se ne può più.

La solitudine
non è mica una follia
è indispensabile
per star bene in compagnia.
Uno fa quel che può
per poter conquistare gli altri
castrandosi un po'
c'è chi ama o fa sfoggio di bontà, ma non è lui
è il suo modo di farsi accettare di più
anche a costo di scordarsi di sé
ma non basta mai.

La solitudine
non è mica una follia
è indispensabile
per star bene in compagnia.

Certo, vivendo insieme
se chiedi aiuto
quando sei disperato e non sopporti
puoi appoggiarti.
Un po' di buona volontà
e riesco pure a farmi amare
ma perdo troppi pezzi e poi
son cazzi miei, non mi ritrovo più.

[parlato] Maledizione!... dove sono?... Eccoli lì che se li mangiano i miei pezzi... cannibali!... Troppa fame, credimi... gli dai una mano ti prendono il braccio... Ve la dò io la comune!... Cannibali... Credimi, da soli si sta bene... In due? È un esercito.

La solitudine
non è mica una follia
è indispensabile
per star bene in compagnia.

della solitudine

Che dilemma...........

Chick Corea - Hiromi Uehara

Concierto de Aranjuez

Secondo tempo

La vita è un letto sfatto.....

io prendo quel che trovo

e lascio quel che prendo dietro me....

Non gioco più

Mina - T. Thielemans

Non gioco più me ne vado. Non gioco più davvero.

La vita è un letto sfatto io prendo quel che trovo

e lascio quel che prendo dietro me.

Non gioco più me ne vado. Non gioco più davvero.

La faccia di cemento tu parli e non ti sento

io cambio e chi non cambia resta me.

Non gioco più lascia stare, non gioco più ti assicuro.

Se ti faccio male poi ti passerà

tanto il mondo come prima senza voglia girerà.

Non gioco più me ne vado. Non gioco più ma davvero.

Non credere ai capricci di una foglia che col vento se ne va.

Non gioco più... Non gioco più... Non gioco più...

Vergogna, schifosi!

Comme fa' 'a gente .....

Ce sta chi ce penza

Pino Daniele

Ma che puzza dinto a 'stu vico
Comme fa' 'a gente a campà'
Cu 'sta puzza sotto 'o naso
Ca nun se po' cchiù suppurtà'
Mo' chiamammo a quaccheduno; ccà quaccosa
s'adda fa'
Simmo sciemë o poco buonë
Forze è chesta 'a verità
E s'è rotta 'a sajettera
'A gente scrive 'e nummarielle
Ma qua' nummere e 'a culonna
Ce vo' l'aiuto d'à Maronna
Chi ce 'o dice a S. Gennaro
Ma 'a fernimmo cu' 'sta storia
Ccà scarzeano 'e denare e s'adda campà'
E' passata 'a prucessione
Pure chesta è tradizione
Se ne cadeno 'e palazze e a nuje ce abbrucia 'o
mazzo
'A città è cchiù pulita ma ognuno mette 'o dito
E nce vo' mangnà'
Ma nun dà retta, ce sta chi ce penza
'Mmiezo a 'sta gente ce sta chi ce penza
E l'America è arrivata
Nce ha purtato tanti cose
So' tant'anne e tanta storia
E nun se ne và
S'è pigliato 'e meglio posti'e chesta città
Mentre nuje jettammo 'o sang'
Dinto 'e quartieri 'a Sanità

Blue, blue windows...

behind the stars,
Yellow moon on the rise,
Big birds flying across the sky,
Throwing shadows on our eyes.....

Helpless

Bruce Springsteen - Neil Young

There is a town in north Ontario,
With dream comfort memory to spare,
And in my mind
I still need a place to go,
All my changes were there.

Blue, blue windows behind the stars,
Yellow moon on the rise,
Big birds flying across the sky,
Throwing shadows on our eyes.
Leave us

Helpless, helpless, helpless
Baby can you hear me now?
The chains are locked
and tied across the door,
Baby, sing with me somehow.

Blue, blue windows behind the stars,
Yellow moon on the rise,
Big birds flying across the sky,
Throwing shadows on our eyes.
Leave us

Helpless, helpless, helpless.

"John Henry"

Bruce Springsteen

When John Henry was a little baby

Sittin' on his daddy's knee

Said the big Ben Tuttle of the C &O Road,

"The hammer's gonna be the death of thee, lord, lord

The hammer's gonna be the death of thee"

John Henry said to his captain,

"A man ain't nothing' but a man

Before I let this steam drill beat me down

I'll die with a hammer in my hand, lord, lord,

I'll die with a hammer in my hand"

Well, the man who invented the steam drill

Thought he was mighty fine

But John Henry drove about fifteen feet

And the steam drill only made nine, lord, lord,

The steam drill only made nine

John Henry said to his preacher,

"Man, why don't you pray,

'cause if I miss with this nine pound hammer

Tomorrow be my buryin' day lord, lord,

Tomorrow be my buryin' day

John Henry swung the hammer over his head

He brought the hammer down to the ground

A man in Chantanooga two hundred miles away

Said, "Listen to the rumblin' sound, lord, lord,

Listen to that rumblin' sound"

They took John Henry to the graveyard,

Buried him in the hot sand

Now every locomotive comes rollin' by says,

"There lies a steel-drivin' man, lord, lord,

There lies a steel drivin' man!"

Ramrod

Bruce Springsteen

Hey, little dolly with the blue jeans on
I wanna ramrod with you honey, till half-past dawn
Let your hair down sugar and pick up this beat
Come on and meet me tonight down on Bluebird Street
I've been working all week, I'm up to my neck in hock
Come Saturday night I let my ramrod rock
She's a hot stepping hemi with a four on the floor
She's a roadrunner engine in a '32 Ford
Late at night when I'm dead on the line
I swear I think of your pretty face when I let her unwind
Well look over yonder see them city lights
Come on little dolly 'n' go ramroddin' tonight

Come on, come on, come on little baby
Come on, come on let's shake it tonight
Come on, come, come on little sugar
Dance with your daddy and we'll go
ramroddin' tonight

Hey, little dolly won't you say you will
Meet me tonight up on top of the hill
Well just a few miles cross the county line
There's a cute little chapel nestled down in the pines
Say you'll be mine little girl I'll put my foot to the floor
Give me the word now sugar, we'll go ramroddin' forever more

Should we lose each other...

in the shadow of the evening trees....

If I Should Fall Behind

Bruce Springsteen

We said we’d walk together baby come what may

That come the twilight should we lose our way

If as we’re walking a hand should slip free

I’ll wait for you

And should I fall behind

Wait for me

We swore we’d travel darlin’ side by side

We’d help each other stay in stride

But each lover’s steps fall so differently

But I’ll wait for you

And if I should fall behind

Wait for me

Now everyone dreams of a love lasting and true

But you and I know what this world can do

So let’s make our steps clear that the other may see

And I’ll wait for you

If I should fall behind

Wait for me

Now there’s a beautiful river in the valley ahead

There ’neath the oak’s bough soon we will be wed

Should we lose each other in the shadow of the evening trees

I’ll wait for you

And should I fall behind

Wait for me

Darlin’ I’ll wait for you

Should I fall behind

Wait for me

There's...

a small hotel

Chet Baker

I'll remember

April

Chet Baker

Triste quanto....

basta.....

Almost blue

Diana Krall

Almost blue

Almost doing things we used to do

There's a boy here and he's almost you

Almost all the things that your eyes once promised

I see in his too

Now your eyes are red from crying

Almost blue

Flirting with this disaster became me

It named me as the fool who only aimed to be

Almost blue

It's almost touching it will almost do

There's a part of me that's always true...always

Not all good things come to an end now it is only a chosen few

I've seen such an unhappy couple

Almost me

Almost you

Almost blue

La speranza è.....

l'ultima a morire....

Whenever you call

Mariah Carey e Brian Mcknight

Love wandered inside
Stronger than you
Stronger than I

And now that it has begun
We cannot turn back

We can only turn into one

I won't ever be too far away to feel you
And I won't hesitate at all
Whenever you call
And I'll always remeber
The part of you so tender
I'll be the one to catch you fall
Whenever you call

And I'm truly inspired

Finding my soul

There in your eyes

And you

Have opened my heart
And lifted me inside
By showing me yourself
Undisguised

I won't ever be too far away to feel you
And I won't hesitate at all
Whenever you call
And I'll always remeber
The part of you so tender
I'll be the one to catch you fall
Whenever you call

And I will breathe for you each day
Comfort you through all the pain
Gently kiss your fears away

You can turn to me and cry
Always understand that I
Give you all I am inside

I won't ever be too far away to feel you
And I won't hesitate at all
Whenever you call

I won't ever be too far away to feel you
And I won't hesitate at all
Whenever you call
And I'll always remeber
The part of you so tender
I'll be the one to catch you fall
Whenever you call
Whenever you call

Tell Me...

Where It Hurts

M.Y.M.P.

Why is that sad look in your eyes

Why are you crying?

Tell me now

Tell me why you're feelin' this way

I hate to see you so down, oh baby!

Is it your heart

Oh, that's breakin' all in pieces

Makin' you cry

And makin' you feel blue

Is there anythin' that I can do

Why don't you tell me where it hurts now, baby

And I'll do my best to make it better

Yes, I'll do my best to make those tears all go away

Just tell me where it hurts

Now, tell me

And I love you with a love so tender

Oh and if you let me stay

I'll love all of the hurt away

Where are all those tears coming from

Why are they falling?

somebody, somebody, somebody left your heart in the cold

You just need somebody to hold on, baby

(Give me a chance)

To put back all the pieces

Take hold of your heart

Make it just like new

There's so many things that I can do

Is it your heart

Oh, that's breakin' all in pieces

Makin' you cry

makin' you feel blue

Is there anythin' that I can do

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me baby

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me

And I'll do my best to make it better

Yes, I'll do my best to make the tears all go away

Just tell me where it hurts

Now, tell me

And I love you with a love so tender

Oh, and if you let me stay

I'll love all of the hurt away

Let The Rain......

Fall

New Age-Enya

I don't wanna waste this moment

I don't wanna be on my own...

I don't wanna see the morning

I don't wanna feel the dawn...

I just wanna sit right here

Counting my memories...

I don't wanna feel no anger

I just need......

Let the rain fall down...

Let my heart come tumbling too...

Let the sky turn grey...

I don't wanna be without you...

I don't wanna feel the moment

Slip away...from my grasp...

I don't wanna watch the water

Fall from my face again...

Familiar tears

All these years...

I am open

See my blood...

I don't wanna touch you

No more...

Let the rain fall down......

E baci, abbracci ....

e sputi,
e io che sputo amore,

io che non sputo mai.
Ciao ciao, andarsene era scritto perciò ciao ciao......

Ciao ciao

Francesco De Gregori

Ciao ciao, andarmene è un peccato, però ciao ciao.
Bella donna alla porta che mi saluti.
E baci, abbracci e sputi,
e io che sputo amore, io che non sputo mai.
Ciao ciao, andarsene era scritto perciò ciao ciao.
Bella ragazza che non m'hai capito mai.
Già parte il treno, sventola il fazzoletto,
amore mio, però piangi di meno.
Ciao ciao, ciao amore ciao, amore ciao.
Guarda che belli fiori in quella città.
Ciao amore ciao, amore come va?
Ciao amore, amore mio, amore ciao.
Ciao ciao, guarda che belli i fiori in quella città,
che mai mi ha vinto e mai nemmeno mi vedrà.
Guarda che mare!
Guarda che barche piccole che vanno a navigare.
