Thank you for the voice, the eyes and the memories shine

Thank you for the pictures of living in the beautiful black and the white

Some say we'll be together for a very long time

Some say that our first impressions never will lie

I open up to take a look into the bright and shiny book

Into the open scheme of things

Never Let Me Down Again - Depeche Mode - agosto 1987

Ad Anna, cara amica mia, con un abbraccio grande grande..

I'm taking a ride

With my best friend

I hope he never lets me down again

He knows where he's taking me

Taking me where I want to be

I'm taking a ride

With my best friend

We're flying high

We're watching the world pass us by

Never want to come down

Never want to put my feet back down

On the ground

I'm taking a ride

With my best friend

I hope he never lets me down again

Promises me I'm as safe as houses

As long as I remember who's wearing the trousers

I hope he never lets me down again

We're flying high

We're watching the world pass us by

Never want to come down

Never want to put my feet back down

On the ground

Never let me down

See the stars, they're shining bright

Everything's alright tonight

HERE COMES THE RAIN AGAIN

HEAVEN

The first picture of summer

All'improvviso alla radio, mentre tutto intorno era grigio e piovoso, ecco suonare questa canzone. L'avevo completamente dimenticata.
E mi ha sorpreso ricordarne le parole e le sensazioni di allora.
Di quelle lunghe giornate estive inglesi, sempre un pò troppo fredde per me, ma incredibilmente affascinanti.

SAVE A PRAYER

I Duran Duran non erano decisamente i miei preferiti. Troppo commerciali, troppo fighetti. Però.. Save a prayer mi ha sempre dato un'emozione, sarà per il video esotico, o per la sensazione di calma e pace che mi infonde ancora oggi a risentirla.
E poi che  bello, eravamo ragazzine, sbarbate di un piccolo paesetto provinciale, e ci divertivamo a scoprire questi nuovi gruppi calati dall'Inghilterra; i primi Duran Duran, quelli del 1983-84, come i primi Simple Minds, U2, Depeche Mode e tanti altri.
Una mia amica ricordo che aveva detto in dialetto "sa ciaman Duran Duran ma duran minga" ... eravamo proprio delle bambine ai tempi... non certo così sveglie come le adolescenti di oggi...
E come è passato il tempo! Eppure trovo bellissimo provare le stesse emozioni di allora.

NEW GOLD DREAM-SIMPLE MINDS 1982

Someone somewhere in summertime

Questa era invece la mia canzone preferita ai tempi
Quanti ricordi della primavera della vita..
Everything is possible in the game of life

Stay, I'm burning slow

With me in the rain, walking in the soft rain

Calling out my name

See me burning slow

Brilliant days, wake up on brilliant days

Shadows of brilliant ways will change all the time

Memories, burning gold memories

Gold of day memories change me in these times

Somewhere there is some place, that one million eyes can't see

And somewhere there is someone, who can see what I can see

Someone, Somewhere In Summertime

Someone, Somewhere In Summertime

Someone, Somewhere In Summertime

Moments burn, slow burning golden nights

Once more see city lights, holding candles to the flame

Brilliant days, wake up on brilliant days

Shadows of brilliant ways will change me all the time

Somewhere there is some place, that one million eyes can't see

And somewhere there is someone, who can see what I can see

Someone, Somewhere In Summertime

Someone, Somewhere In Summertime

Someone, Somewhere In Summertime

Someone, Somewhere In Summertime

SOMEONE SOMEWHERE IN SUMMERTIME-SIMPLE MINDS 1983
