Ieri a Genova circolava la voce che gli U2 avrebbero tenuto un concerto al Palazzo Ducale. Ma la circostanza dell'1 Aprile e dei suoi celebri "pesci" ha smascherato subito lo scherzo.

A dispetto delle tre nomination ricevute da qwuelli che vengono spesso chiamati i Grammy irlandesi, gli U2 non hanno ricevuto alcun premio ai Meteor Awards di quest'anno. un tentativo da parte dell'organizzazione del premio, di smarcarsi dall'ombra imponente della band irlandese più amata della storia.

U2, UN TOUR ECOLOGICO

2010-02-26T03:34:00.000-08:00

Il 360° Tour degli U2 non resterà alla storia soltanto per The Claw, il megapalco rotante, o per il record di incassi. Ma anche eprchè è il primo tour a basso impatto ecologico.

Dovrebbero finire questa settimana le riprese di Killing Bono, il film girato a Dublino sulla storia narrata in "Killing Bono: I was doppelganger Bono" di Neil McCormick.

Il film, che dovrebbe uiscire entro l'anno, è stato prodotto con un budget molto limitato.

SALMAN RUSHDIE RICORDA IL SUO "CONCERTO" CON GLI U2

2010-02-19T03:02:00.000-08:00

In un'intervista al Sunday Times lo scrittore Salman Rushdie ha ricordato quando, nel 2001, gli U2 lo vollero sul palco del concerto di Wembley per solidarietà contro la fatwa ricevuta dagli integralisti.

"Quando arrivò lo Zooropa tour al Wembley Stadium di Londra, dove mi ero rifugiato, Bono m chiamò e mi chiese se volevo salire sul palco. Gli U2 volevano fare un gesto di solidarietà per me, e credo sia stato quello più importante che io abbia ricevuto in quel periodo. Quando dissi a mio figlio quattordicenne che sarei stato sul palco lui mi disse: papà tutto ma ti prego no cantare, se ti metti a cantare dovrò suicidarmi subito. Alla fine non cantai, ma salii sul palco e capii finalmente cosa signifca stare davanti a 80 mial fans in delirio epr te".

Godiamoci i nostri Bono Vox e The Edge in versione acustica nell'edizione del 2000, presentati da Luciano Pavarotti e Fabio Fazio.

U2, I CONCERTI PIU' ATTESI DELL'ANNO

2010-02-05T01:00:00.000-08:00

Osservando i dati di vendita dei biglietti e le notizie riportate dai principali giornali italiani, i concerti degli U2 sono gli eventi live più attesi dagli italiani per il 2010. I due concerti di Torino ad agosto e di Roma ad ottobre rappresentano le manifestazioni musicali più discusse e ambite dagli appassionati di musica della penisola.

2010-02-04T09:39:00.001-08:00

Per il loro nuovo album gli Strokes hanno scelto di affidarsi al produttore Jeo Ciccarelli. Ciccarelli deve la sua fama soprattutto alle sue collaborazioni con gli U2. E' infatti grazie ad esse che il suo nome è diventato tra i più prestigiosi in ambito musicale.

ATTACCO ALLE INIZIATIVE DI BENEFICENZA DI BONO

2010-02-03T06:07:00.000-08:00

Dalla stampa austrialiana rimbalza una dichiarazione di Brian Johnson, il leader degli Ac/Dc, che lascia sconcertati. usando parole anche molto pesanti, Johnson ha tacciato Bono Vox di ipocrisia, spiegando che non si possono chiedere soldi ai fans per beneficenza, e che i soldi li devono donare le star milionare. Johnson però trascura il fatto che Bono Vox dona personalmente tempo e soldi alle sue cause, e che se va a cantare ad un concerto il cui incasso va ad Haiti è come se avesse donato personalmente i soldi del biglietto.

BIGLIETTI U2, TESTO STUCK IN A MOMENT YOU CAN'T GET OUT OF

2010-01-26T01:07:00.000-08:00

I'm not afraid
Of anything in this world
There's nothing you can throw at me
That I haven't already heard

I'm just trying to find
A decent melody
A song that I can sing
In my own company

I never thought you were a fool
But darling look at you
You gotta stand up straight
Carry your own weight
These tears are going nowhere baby

You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And now you can't get out of it

Don't say that later will be better
Now you're stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it

I will not forsake
The colors that you bring
The nights you filled with fireworks
They left you with nothing

I am still enchanted
By the light you brought to me
I listen through your ears
Through your eyes I can see

And you are such a fool
To worry like you do
I know it's tough
And you can never get enough
Of what you don't really need now
My, oh my

You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it

Oh love, look at you now
You've got yourself stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it

I was unconscious, half asleep
The water is warm 'til you discover how deep

I wasn't jumping, for me it was a fall
It's a long way down to nothing at all

You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it

Don't say that later will be better
Now you're stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it

And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if our way should falter
Along the stony pass

And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if your way should falter
Along this stony pass

It's just a moment
This time will pass

BIGLIETTI U2, TESTO MISS SARAJEVO

2010-01-25T01:05:00.000-08:00

Is there a time for keeping your distance
A time to turn your eyes away
Is there a time for keeping your head down
For getting on with your day

Is there a time for kohl and lipstick
A time for cutting hair
Is there a time for high street shopping
To find the right dress to wear

Here she comes
Heads turn around
Here she comes
To take her crown

Is there a time to run for cover
A time for kiss and tell
Is there a time for different colours
Different names you find it hard to spell

Is there a time for first communion
A time for East 17
Is there a time to turn to Mecca
Is there time to be a beauty queen

Here she comes
Beauty plays the clown
Here she comes
Surreal in her crown

Dici che il fiume
Trova la via al mare
E come il fiume
Giungerai a me
Oltre i confini
E le terre assetate
Dici che come fiume
Come fiume...
L'amore giunger
L'amore...
E non so più pregare
E nell'amore non so più sperare
E quell'amore non so più aspettare

Is there a time for tying ribbons
A time for Christmas trees
Is there a time for laying tables
And the night is set to freeze

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame
You say...

One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's...

Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One...

Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other

One...life

BIGLIETTI U2, TESTO BEAUTIFUL DAY

2010-01-23T01:07:00.000-08:00

The heart is a bloom
Shoots up through the stony ground
There's no room
No space to rent in this town

You're out of luck
And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck
And you're not moving anywhere

You thought you'd found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
In return for grace

It's a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away

You're on the road
But you've got no destination
You're in the mud
In the maze of her imagination

You love this town
Even if that doesn't ring true
You've been all over
And it's been all over you

It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day

Touch me
Take me to that other place
Teach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case

See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out

It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Beautiful day

Touch me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case

What you don't have you don't need it now
What you don't know you can feel it somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
Don't need it now
Was a beautiful day

He spends his running after me

When I feel myself going down
I just call and he comes around
But for the first time
I feel love

My father is a rich man
He wears a rich man's cloak
Gave me the keys to his kingdom coming
Gave me a cup of gold

He said I have many mansions
And there are many rooms to see
But I left by the back door
And I threw away the key
And I threw away the key
Yeah, I threw away the key
Yeah, I threw away the key

For the first time
For the first time
For the first time

I feel love

BIGLIETTI U2, TESTO HOLD ME, THRILL ME, KISS ME, KILL ME

2010-01-20T00:12:00.000-08:00

You don't know how you took it
You just know what you got
Oh Lordy you've been stealing
From the thieves and you got caught
In the headlights
Of a stretch car
You're a star

Dressing like your sister
Living like a tart
They don't know what you're doing
Babe, it must be art
You're a headache
In a suitcase
You're a star

Oh no, don't be shy
You don't have to go blind
Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me

You don't know how you got here
You just know you want out
Believing in yourself
Almost as much as you doubt
You're a big smash
You wear it like a rash
Star

Oh no, don't be shy
It takes a crowd to cry
Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me

They want you to be Jesus
They'll go down on one knee
But they'll want their money back
If you're alive at thirty-three
And you're turning tricks
With your crucifix
You're a star

(Oh child)

Of course you're not shy
You don't have to deny love
Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me

BIGLIETTI U2, TESTO UNTIL THE END OF THE WORLD

2010-01-18T00:04:00.000-08:00

Haven't seen you in quite a while
I was down the hold just passing time
Last time we met was a low-lit room
We were as close together as a bride and groom
We ate the food, we drank the wine
Everybody having a good time
Except you
You were talking about the end of the world

I took the money
I spiked your drink
You miss too much these days if you stop to think
You lead me on with those innocent eyes
You know I love the element of surprise
In the garden I was playing the tart
I kissed your lips and broke your heart
You...you were acting like it was
The end of the world

(Love...love...)

In my dream I was drowning my sorrows
But my sorrows, they learned to swim
Surrounding me, going down on me
Spilling over the brim
Waves of regret and waves of joy
I reached out for the one I tried to destroy
You...you said you'd wait
'til the end of the world

BIGLIETTI U2, TESTO GONE (NEW MIX)

2010-01-17T00:08:00.000-08:00

You get to feel so guilty
You got so much for so little
Then you find that feeling
Just won't go away

You were holding on to every little thing so tightly
'Til there's nothing left for you anyway

Goodbye...
You can keep this suit of lights
I'll be up with the sun
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down

You wanted to get somewhere so badly
You kinda lose yourself along the way
You change your name, but that's okay, it's necessary
What you leave behind you don't miss anyway

Goodbye...
You can keep this suit of lights
I'll be up with the sun
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down

And I'm already gone
Felt that way all along
Closer to you every day
Didn't want it that much anyway

You're taking steps that make you feel dizzy
Then you learn to like the way it feels
You hurt yourself you hurt your lover
Then you discover
What you thought was freedom just was greed

Goodbye...
No emotional...good night
I'll be up with the sun
Are you still holding on
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down

Gone...sun...time...sun...
Gone...sun....gone...sun...
Sun...

BIGLIETTI U2, TESTO STAY (FARAWAY, SO CLOSE!)

2010-01-16T01:09:00.000-08:00

Green light, Seven Eleven
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
You don't smoke, don't even want to
Hey now, check your change
Dressed up like a car crash
Your wheels are turning but you're upside down
You say when he hits you, you don't mind
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
Hey babe, is that what it is

Red lights, gray morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depends on who's around
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip synch to the talk shows

And if you look, you look through me
And when you talk, you talk at me
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing

If I could stay...
Then the night would give you up
Stay...and the day would keep its trust
Stay...and the night would be enough

Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio
With satellite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans
London, Belfast and Berlin

And if you listen I can't call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout, I'll only hear you

If I could stay...
Then the night would give you up
Stay...then the day would keep its trust
Stay...with the demons you drowned
Stay...with the spirit I found
Stay...and the night would be enough

Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there's no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground

Just the bang
And the clatter
As an angel
Hits the ground

LA BBC FA AUTOCRITICA SUGLI U2

2010-01-15T06:35:00.000-08:00

"Abbiamo esagerato nella promozione di no Line On The Horizon"". E' questo il senso dell'autocritica a cui l'emittente di stato inglese è stata costretta dopo le interrogazioni parlamentari di un deputato conservatore. La BBC aveva lanciato, via tv e via radio, il nuovo disco degli U2 a tutto spiano. Guadagnandoci però un concerto sul tetto del proprio grattacielo. Non a sufficienza però. "Dobbiamo stare attenti a non favorire attività commerciali esterne", si legge oggi in una nota.

BIGLIETTI U2, TESTO ELECTRICAL STORM (WILLIAM ORBIT MIX)

2010-01-15T00:15:00.000-08:00

The sea it swells like a sore head
And the night, it is aching
Two lovers lie with no sheets on their bed
And the day it is breaking

On rainy days we'd go swimming out
On rainy days, swimming in the sound
On rainy days we'd go swimming out

You're in my mind
All of the time
I know that's not enough
If the sky can crack
There must be some way back
For love and only love

Electrical storm
Electrical storm
Baby don't cry

Car alarm
Won't let you back to sleep
You're kept awake
Dreaming someone else's dream
Coffee is cold
But it'll get you through
Compromise
That's nothing new to you

Let's see colors that have never been seen
Let's go to places no one else has been

In my mind
All of the time
I know that's not enough
Well if the sky can crack
There must be some way back
To love and only love

Electrical storm
Electrical storm
Electrical storm
Baby don't cry

It's hot as hell
Honey, in this room
Sure hope the weather will break soon
The air is heavy, heavy as a truck
Need the rain will wash away our bad luck

Well if the sky can crack
There must be some way back
To love and only love

Electrical storm
Electrical storm
Electrical storm

Baby don't cry
Baby don't cry
Oh baby don't cry

Johnny take a walk with your sister the moon
Let her pale light in to fill up your room
You've been living underground
Eating from a can
You've been running away
From what you don't understand...
Love

She's slippy
You're sliding down
She'll be there when you hit the ground

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways

Johnny take a dive with your sister in the rain
Let her talk about the things you can't explain
To touch is to heal
To hurt is to steal
If you want to kiss the sky
Better learn how to kneel

(On your knees boy)

She's the wave
She turns the tide
And no question she knows why

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
Lift my days, light up my nights

One day you will look...back
And you'll see...where
You were held...how
By this love...while
You could stand...there
You could move on this moment
Follow this feeling

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright

We move through miracle days
Spirit moves in mysterious ways
She moves with it
She moves with it
Lift my days, light up my nights

UN NUOVO ROMANZO ROCK DALL'AUTORE DI "U2 AT THE END OF THE WORLD"

2010-01-13T04:57:00.000-08:00

E' stato appena pubblicato "Evening's Empire", il nuovo romanzo di Bill Flanagan, noto ai fans degli U2 per essere l'autore di "U2 At the End of the World", il libro sulla band più importante del rock contemporaneo, scritto dopo che Flanagan aveva seguito Bono Vox e compagni durante lo Zoo Tv Tour.Evening's Empire narar la storia di un manager musicale che con la sua band attraversa tre decenni (anni 60, 70 e 80).

Bono Vox ha così descritto il romanzo: "Evening's Empire è una storia alternatica sulla generazione degli anni '60, che risulta persino più vera di ciò che realmente accadde. E' il testamento divertente e triste di quei ragazzi persi che non sarebbero più cresciuti".

BIGLIETTI U2, TESTO LEMON (JEEP MIX)

2010-01-10T01:06:00.000-08:00

Lemon
See through in the sunlight
She wore lemon
But never in the daylight
She's gonna make you cry
She's gonna make you whisper and moan
And when you're dry
She draws her water from the stone

And I feel
Like I'm slowly, slowly,
Slowly slipping under
And I feel
Like I'm holding onto nothing

She wore lemon
To color in the cold grey night
She had heaven
And she held on so tight

A man makes a picture
A moving picture
Through the light projected
He can see himself up close
A man captures color
A man likes to stare
He turns his money into light
To look for her

And I feel
Like I'm drifting, drifting,
Drifting from the shore
And I feel
Like I'm swimming out to her

Midnight is where the day begins

A man builds a city
With banks and cathedrals
A man melts the sand so he can

See the world outside

A man makes a car
And builds a road to run them on
A man dreams of leaving

You're gonna meet her there
She's your destination
You gotta get to her
She's imagination

But he always stays behind

And these are the days
When our work has come asunder
And these are the days
When we look to each other

Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins

Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins

LA FEDE DI BONO SULL'OSSERVATORE ROMANO

2010-01-09T08:25:00.001-08:00

Si discute nel web di un articolo apparso sull'Osservatore Romano del 4-5 gennaio a firma Gaetano Vallini. Il pezzo, dal titolo "Re Davide? Una pop star" inizia con le parole di Bono Vox:

"A dodici anni adoravo Davide: per me era come una pop star, le parole dei salmi erano poesia e lui era un divo. C'è da dire che, prima di diventare profeta e re di Israele, Davide aveva dovuto subirne parecchie: era andato in esilio e poi finì in una caverna dove fece i conti con se stesso e con Dio. Ed è proprio lì che la soap opera si fa interessante: Davide compone il suo primo blues". Detta così - nota l'opinionista del giornale del vaticano- ha tutta l'aria di un'affermazione irriverente. E invece questa dichiarazione fatta da Bono, il leader degli U2, una delle rock band più importanti degli ultimi trent'anni, può essere letta come una originalissima dichiarazione di fede.

Da qui Vallini parte alla scoperta della religiosità di Bono Vox attraverso una lettura dei brani degli U2, disseminati di citazioni tratte dal Vangelo e dalla Bibbia.

BIGLIETTI U2, TESTO IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS (BIG YAM MIX)

2010-01-09T00:05:00.000-08:00

Nobody else here baby
Nobody else here to blame
No one to point the finger
It's just you and me and the rain

Nobody made you do it
No one put words in my mouth
No one here taking orders
When love took a train heading south

It's the blind leading the blonde
It's the stuff, it's the stuff of country songs

Hey if God will send his angels
And if God will send a sign
And if God will send his angels
Will everything be alright

God has got his phone off the hook, baby
Would he even pick up if he could
It's been a while since we saw that child
Hanging 'round this neighborhood
You see his mother dealing in a doorway
See Father Christmas with a begging bowl
Jesus sister's eyes are a blister
The High Street never looked so low

It's the blind leading the blonde
It's the cops collecting for the cons

If God will send his angels
And if God will send a sign
Well if God will send his angels
Will that make it alright
Where do we go
Where do we go

Jesus never let me down
You know Jesus used to show me the score
Then they put Jesus in show business
Now it's hard to get in the door
(Angel)

It's the stuff, it's the stuff of country songs
But I guess it's something to go on
So where is the hope and where is the faith
And the love...what's that you say to me
Does love...light up your Christmas tree
The next minute you're blowing a fuse
And the cartoon network turns into the news

If God will send his angels
I sure could use them here right now
Well if God would send his angels

And I don't have to know how
(Where do we go)
And I don't need to know why
And I don't want to promise
(Where do we go)
'Cause I don't want to lie
I just want to need you
(Where do we go)
Tonight

Love...
So light, so night, by your door
Do take my hand by your door
So light, so night, by your door

But anyway, um, when you wake up, give me a ring and I'm going to call the studio and book some time. Oh yeah, and I want to use a full string section, okay.

THE EDGE: DETESTO LE JAM SESSION

2010-01-06T09:21:00.000-08:00

In un'intervista a Neil McCormick del Daily Telegraph The Edge si è detto assolutamente contrario a fare jam sessins con altri chitarristi. "Ho provato e mai più. Fare jam sessions è la cosa più scocciante e terribile per me. Non mi ci diverto proprio. Prima di tutto, non ha niente a che fare con il modo in cui lavoro come musicista. Io non mi siedo e inizio a suonare a vavera per vedere che viene fuori. L'idea di fare jamming , senza fine senza direzione senza un progetto, è una cosa che trovo noiosissima."

Take me higher

Take me higher

Well my heart is where it's always been
My head is somewhere in between

Let me be your lover tonight

You're the real thing

You're the real thing
Even better than the real thing

Give me one last chance
And I'm gonna make you sing
Give me half a chance
To ride on the waves that you bring

You're honey child to a swarm of bees
Gonna blow right through you like a breeze
Give me one last dance
We'll slide down the surface of things

You're the real thing
You're the real thing
You're the real thing
Even better than the real thing
Child...

Take me higher
Take me higher

You take me higher
Take me higher
Take me higher
Take me higher
You take me higher

We're free to fly the crimson sky
The sun won't melt our wings tonight

Take me higher
Take me higher
Take me higher
Take me higher

Take me higher
Take me higher
You take me higher
Take me higher
Take me higher
Take me higher
You take me higher

Give you half what I got
If you untie the knot
It's a promise

Salome...salome
Salome...salome
Yeah yeah yeah

Well I heard it before
When I crawled from your door
And my blood turned blue

Baby please
Baby please slow down
Baby I feel sick
Don't make me stick to my promise

Salome...salome
Salome...salome
Salome...salome

Baby please
Baby don't say no
Won't you dance for me
'neath that cherry tree
Won't you swing down low

Please
Baby please say yes
Baby don't go away
You're spilling me
And your precious love

Shake it shake it shake it salome
Shake it shake it shake it salome
Shake it shake it shake it salome

Shake it shake it shake it salome
Shake it shake it shake it salome

BIGLIETTI U2, TESTO HAPPINESS IS A WARM GUN (THE GUN MIX)

2010-01-04T00:11:00.000-08:00

Happiness is a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun

She's not a girl who misses much
She's not a girl who misses much

Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun

Happiness is a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun

She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand
Like a lizard on a window pane
The man in the crowd
With the multicoloured mirrors on his hobnail boots
Lying with his eyes wide open
And the hands busy working overtime
A soap impression of his wife which he ate
And donated to the National Trust

Hey, I need a fix 'cause I'm going down

Happiness is a, a warm gun
Happiness is a, a warm gun
Happiness is a, a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun

Happiness is a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun

I need a fix cause I'm going down
I need a fix cause I'm going down
I need a fix cause I'm going down
To the bits that I left uptown

I need a fix cause I'm going down, uptown
Need a fix cause I'm going down, uptown

Happiness is a, a warm gun
Happiness is a, a warm gun
Happiness is a, a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun
[Repeat until end]

BIGLIETTI U2, TESTO YOUR BLUE ROOM

2010-01-03T00:08:00.000-08:00

It's time to go again
To your blue room
Got some questions to ask of you
In your blue room

The air is clean
Your skin is clear
I've had enough fun hanging 'round here
It's a different kind of conversation
Your blue room

Saw me coming
In outside
Saw me coming
Somewhere I can hide

And time is a string of pearls...your blue room
(I'm a swinger)
See the future just hanging there...your blue room
A new frame, a new perspective
Looking down on my objectives
Your instructions whatever their directions
Your blue room

Saw me coming
East by the moon
Saw me coming
Can you feel

(It's allright)

Your blue room

One day I'll be back...your blue room
Yeah, I hope I remember where it's at...your blue room

We see me slide
Won't you give me a home
So much for change

Zooming in
Zooming out
Nothing I can't do without
A lens to see it all up close
Magnifying what no one knows
Never in company
Never alone
No car alarm
No cellular phone

BONO VOX ARTISTA DI STRADA A NATALE

2010-01-02T03:29:00.000-08:00

Bono Vox è sceso per strada a Dublino la sera di Natale e, in mezzo a un centinaio di giovani increduli, si è unito agli artisti di strada che stavano suonando in Grafton Street. Bono si è fermato per tre pezzi: “Knockin´ On Heaven´s Door” di Bob Dylan, ‘Stand By Me’ di Ben E.King e “Heyday” di Mic Christopher. Su Youtube ho trovato il video del primo brano.

BIGLIETTI U2, TESTO YAHWEH

2010-01-01T01:06:00.000-08:00

Take these shoes
Click clacking down some dead end street
Take these shoes
And make them fit
Take this shirt
Polyester white trash made in nowhere
Take this shirt
And make it clean, clean
Take this soul
Stranded in some skin and bones
Take this soul
And make it sing

Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, Yahweh
Still I'm waiting for the dawn

Take these hands
Teach them what to carry
Take these hands
Don't make a fist
Take this mouth
So quick to criticise
Take this mouth
Give it a kiss

Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahewh, Yahweh
Still I'm waiting for the dawn

Still waiting for the dawn, the sun is coming up
The sun is coming up on the ocean
This love is like a drop in the ocean
This love is like a drop in the ocean

Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, tell me now
Why the dark before the dawn?

Take this city
A city should be shining on a hill
Take this city
If it be your will
What no man can own, no man can take
Take this heart
Take this heart
Take this heart
And make it break

BIGLIETTI U2, TESTO ORIGINAL OF THE SPECIES

2009-12-31T00:14:00.000-08:00

Baby slow down
The end is not as fun as the start
Please stay a child somewhere in your heart

I'll give you everything you want
Except the thing that you want
You are the first one of your kind

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
And I kneel cos I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you're not

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it

Some things you shouldn't get too good at
Like smiling, crying and celebrity
Some people got way too much confidence baby

I'll give you everything you want
Except the thing that you want
You are the first one of your kind

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
I kneel cos I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you're not

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it, no
And you'll never be alone
Come on now show your soul
You've been keeping your love under control

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it

Everywhere you go you shout it
Oh my my

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
I kneel cos I want you some more
I want you some more, I want you some more
