un giardino in diretta

e ne sono felice! ho ritrovato, per esempio, questo cd del 1991...gasp...il titolo è Dream, T&P talk about Dream...tuck e patty parlano del sogno così:  "This is our first album dedicated to dreams. We've both been dreaming ever since we can remember. We finally thought (simultaneously) "Hey, we oughtta do an album about dreams!" So we did. And, well, here it is." ...brrrrrrrrr...brrrrancamenta...magie che non sono del mio mondo...mannaggia le puzzole del canadà!

per gli appassionati della stampa in tasca:

Dream - Tuck and Patty

(Patricia Cathcart Andress)
© 1991 Grey Kitty Music (BMI)/Windham Hill Music (BMI)

I've been thinking (yes I have)
Some call it wishful thinking (I don't)
'Bout the way this life could be

So much sadness (seems like)
Not enough gladness (seems to me)
Lack of vision is a dangerous thing

If you can see it
Then you start to feel it
The next thing you know, you believe
And that's when dreams begin to come true

So with all your heart and your soul
Start right now--really take control
Turn our dreams into reality

And until you do, I'll be dreamin' for me and you
We'll see together what a dream can do
We'll discover how to make dreams real
If seeing is believing, then let the dreaming begin
Let the dreaming begin

If you can see it
Then you start to feel it
And the next thing you know, you believe
And that's when dreams begin to come true
Oh they'll begin to come true

So with all your heart and your soul
Start right now--really take control
Turn these dreams into reality
I know that we can change this world
But first you're gonna have to believe
Oh believe say yes
We can change this world
But first you're going to have to

Dream
Everybody dream
Turn our dreams into reality oh say
Dream
Everybody dream
Turn our dreams into reality, say oh won't you

Dream of peace and
Dream of justice
Dream of healing
Dream of loving

Dream
Everybody dream
Turn our dreams into reality

Dream of caring
End of hunger
Dream of sharing
With one another

Dream
Everybody dream
Turn our dreams into reality

Dream of spirit
Dream of glory
Dream of the ancient
Old old story

Dream
Everybody dream
Turn our dreams into reality, I want you to

Dream of peace and
Dream of justice
Dream of healing
Dream of loving

Dream of spirit
Dream of glory
Dream of the ancient
Old old story

Dream end of hatred
Dream oh the story
Dream of love and
Dream of glory

Dream yes oh
Everybody dream
Turn our dreams into reality oh say

I'm Dreamin' of peace
I'm Dreamin' of healing
Dream of love and
Dream of caring

Dreaming say
I'm dreaming now
Dreaming of a love say
I'm dreaming
I know that we can dream a world of love

sempre dal mio corrispondentepreferitodalondra ho saputo di enormi cartelloni pubblicitari molto curiosi: l'autore è un fotografo francese, Cedric Delsaux che in questi giorni espone a Washington.

chapeau! ;-)

il mio corrispondente preferito mi ha raccontato di una spettacolare versione di purple rain (oltre 10 minuti di assollo ed improvvisazioni) durante uno dei 21, dico 21, concerti che il principe dei principi ha graziosamente regalato al mondo. che dire? un altro sogno che resta nel cassetto...

x la stampa tascabile, ecco il testo:

purple rain - prince

I never meant 2 cause U any sorrow
I never meant 2 cause U any pain
I only wanted one time 2 see U laughing
I only wanted 2 see U laughing in the purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted 2 see U bathing in the purple rain

I never wanted 2 be your weekend lover
I only wanted 2 be some kind of friend, hey
Baby, I could never steal U from another
It's such a shame our friendship had 2 end

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted 2 see U underneath the purple rain

Honey, I know, I know, I know times are changin'
It's time we all reach out 4 something new, that means U 2
U say U want a leader, but U can't seem 2 make up your mind
I think U better close it and let me guide U 2 the purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
If U know what I'm singin' about up here, come on raise your hand
Purple rain, purple rain
I only want 2 see U, only want 2 see U in the purple rain

sono inciampata nella cover di marylin manson e per fortuna prontamente rimbalzata su un vecchio cd degli eurithmics dal vivo...sweet dreams meritava meno dramma e più ritmo. sullo stesso disco un'altra cover: "River Deep, Mountain High" ed anche questa, secondo me, andava restituita alla legittima proprietaria!

Ladies and gentlemen, TINA TURNER!

ps: per chi si prende il gusto di stampare una canzone e mettersela in tasca ecco il testo:

River Deep, Mountain High - Tina Trner

When I was a little girl I had a rag doll
Only doll I've ever owned
Now I love you just the way I loved that rag doll
But only now my love has grown

And it gets stronger, in every way
And it gets deeper, let me say
And it gets higher, day by day

CHORUS:
And do I love you my oh my
Yeh river deep mountain high
If I lost you would I cry
Oh how I love you baby, baby, baby, baby

When you were a young boy
Did you have a puppy That always followed you around
Well I'm gonna be as faithful as that puppy

No I'll never let you down

Cause it grows stronger, like a river flows
And it gets bigger baby, and heaven knows
And it gets sweeter baby, as it grows

CHORUS

I love you baby like a flower loves the spring
And I love you baby just like Tina loves to sing
And I love you baby like a school boy loves his pet
And I love you baby, river deep mountain high
Oh yeah you've gotta believe me
River Deep, Mountain High

CHORUS

Mimmo Cangiano e Achille Castaldo  - Scarti dell’Assoluto. L’ossessione per la nuda pietra.

Lo scultore dà forma alla propria opera e libera nella materia inanimata la figura irripetibile ed unica che era in essa racchiusa. Lavorando, dovrà eliminare il superfluo, disfarsi degli scarti, che si accumuleranno informi e caotici ai suoi piedi. ...continua a leggere

questo è l'unico album di cui conosco tutte le parole a memoria...

preferisco questi ritmi ai grilli parlanti...
