Radiohead – Creep

with 5 comments

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

When you were here before
Couldn’t look you in the eye
You’re just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
And I wish I was special
You’re so fuckin’ special

But I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here.

I don’t care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I’m not around
You’re so fuckin’ special
I wish I was special

But I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here.

She’s running out again,
She’s running out
She’s run run run running out…

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You’re so fuckin’ special
I wish I was special…

But I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo,
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here.
I don’t belong here.

Karadell – Se questo è un uomo

leave a comment »

Il bel video musicale realizzato dai Karadell.

(ho avuto il piacere di “collaborare” alla realizzazione di questo video fornendo materiale fotografico… su un tema che mi ha sempre colpito fin da quando, da ragazzo, lessi il libro di Primo Levi e vidi il film di Spielberg “Schindler’s List”)

The Man Comes Around

leave a comment »

“The Man Comes Around” is the title track from Johnny Cash’s American IV: The Man Comes Around, released in 2002 (see 2002 in music). It is one of the last songs Cash wrote in his life. (Wikipedia)

And I heard as it were the noise of thunder.
One of the four beasts saying “come and see”,
and I saw, and behold a white horse.

There’s a man going around taking names,
And he decides who to free and who to blame.
Everybody won’t be treated all the same.
There will be a golden ladder reaching down
When the man comes around.

The hairs on your arm will stand up
At the terror in each sip and in each sup.
Will you partake of that last offered cup?
Or disappear into the potter’s ground
When the man comes around?

Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers.
One hundred million angels singing.
Multitudes are marching to the big kettledrum.
Voices calling and voices crying,
Some are born and some are dying.
It’s Alpha and Omega’s kingdom come.

And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree,
The virgins are all trimming their wicks.
The whirlwind is in the thorn tree,
It’s hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

‘Til Armageddon, no salaam, no shalom.
Then the father hen will call his chickens home,
The wise man will bow down before the throne.
And at his feet, they will cast the golden crowns,
When the man comes around.

Whoever is unjust, let him be unjust still.
Whoever is righteous, let him be righteous still.
Whoever is filthy, let him be filthy still.
Listen to the words long written down when the man comes around.

Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers.
One hundred million angels singing.
Multitudes are marching to the big kettledrum.
Voices calling and voices crying,
Some are born and some are dying.
It’s Alpha and Omega’s kingdom come.

And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree,
The virgins are all trimming their wicks.
The whirlwind is in the thorn tree,
It’s hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

In measured hundred weight and penny pound,
When the man comes around.

And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts,
and I looked and behold, a pale horse.
And his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.
