VITA SPERICOLATA

VASCO ROSSI
COMPOSITORI: TULLIO FERRO & VASCO ROSSI
PAESE: ITALIA
ALBUM: BOLLICINE(ORIGINAL MASTER)
ETICHETTA: CAROSELLO RECORDS
GENERE: INDIE
ANNO: 1983
 
      Vasco Rossi, noto anche semplicemente come Vasco e in passato con l'appellativo Blasco (Zocca, 7 febbraio 1952), è un cantautore italiano.
         Autodefinitosi "provocautore", è considerato uno dei maggiori esponenti della musica rock italiana. Dall'inizio della sua carriera nel 1977, ha pubblicato 34 album, di cui 18 in studio, 11 dal vivo e 5 raccolte ufficiali, oltre a due EP e un'opera audiovisiva; complessivamente ha scritto 191 canzoni, oltre ad aver scritto numerosi testi e musiche per altri interpreti. Ha venduto quasi 40 milioni di dischi ed è dai primi anni ottanta uno degli artisti italiani di maggiore successo. È inoltre il primo artista italiano per numero di copie vendute nel decennio che va dal 2010 al 2019. In special modo, con gli album Vivere o niente e Sono innocente, il rocker ha guadagnato il primo posto nella classifica degli album più venduti in Italia rispettivamente del 2011 e del 2014. Detiene, inoltre, il primato di essere stato primo in classifica degli album più venduti in Italia in cinque differenti decenni, da quando l'album Siamo qui è giunto in vetta alle classifiche nel 2021.
        Negli anni ottanta, lo stile di vita sregolato caratterizzato da alcool, droghe, donne e continui tour frenetici, avvicina Vasco Rossi allo stereotipo della rockstar, divenuto, col tempo, vera e propria icona.
      Nella sua carriera si è esibito in più di 800 concerti, e detiene il record mondiale di spettatori paganti in un concerto solista (225.173 al Modena Park 2017).
           Gli viene riconosciuto il merito di essere stato protagonista di una vera rivoluzione musicale: i suoi brani riportano tematiche sociologiche ed esistenzialiste, conditi con uno stile espressivo singolare, che ha influenzato anche il linguaggio parlato.
    Il suo lavoro gli ha fruttato numerosi riconoscimenti, tra cui il Premio Nazionale de «Il Paroliere» per la canzone Ogni volta nel 1982, la Targa Tenco per il miglior album 1998 con Canzoni per me, il Premio Lunezia in qualità di Poeta del Rock per la canzone Quanti anni hai nel 1999, il Nastro d'argento alla migliore canzone originale per Un senso e la laurea honoris causa in Scienze della comunicazione alla IULM di Milano nel 2005, il Premio Fernanda Pivano nel 2006, il Nettuno d'oro e il Premio Tenco per la carriera nel 2020.
Voglio una vita maleducata
Di quelle vite fatte, fatte così
Voglio una vita che se ne frega
Che se ne frega di tutto sì
Voglio una vita che non è mai tardi
Di quelle che non dormono mai
Voglio una vita di quelle che non si sa mai
 
E poi ci troveremo come le stars
A bere del whisky al Roxy bar
O forse non c'incontreremo mai
Ognuno a rincorrere i suoi guai
Ognuno col suo viaggio
Ognuno diverso
E ognuno in fondo perso
Dentro i fatti suoi, suoi
 
Voglio una vita spericolata
Voglio una vita come quelle dei film
Voglio una vita esagerata
Voglio una vita come Steve McQueen
Voglio una vita che non è mai tardi
Di quelle che non dormi mai
Voglio una vita, la voglio piena di guai
 
E poi ci troveremo come le stars
A bere del whisky al Roxy bar
Oppure non c'incontreremo mai
Ognuno a rincorrere i suoi guai
Ognuno col suo viaggio
Ognuno diverso
E ognuno in fondo perso
Dentro i fatti suoi
 
Voglio una vita maleducata
Di quelle vite fatte così
Voglio una vita che se ne frega
Che se ne frega di tutto sì
Voglio una vita che non è mai tardi
Di quelle che non dormi mai
Voglio una vita
Vedrai che vita vedrai, uh
 
E poi ci troveremo come le star
A bere del whisky al Roxy bar
O forse non c'incontreremo mai
Ognuno a rincorrere i suoi guai
 
E poi ci troveremo come le star
A bere del whisky al Roxy bar
O forse non c'incontreremo mai
Ognuno a rincorrere i suoi guai
 
Voglio una vita spericolata
Voglio una vita come quelle dei film
Voglio una vita esagerata
Voglio una vita come Steve McQueen
Voglio una vita maleducata
Di quelle vite fatte, fatte così
Voglio una vita che se ne frega
Che se ne frega di tutto sì.

ALBUM: SOMEDAY TOMORROW MAYBE
LABEL: UNIVERSAL MUSIC DIVISION BARCLAY
GENRE: INDIE POP
YEAR: 2020
 
      Lola Marsh(Hebrew:  לולה מארש) is an Israeli indie pop band from Tel Aviv. The band was formed as a duo in 2013 by Gil Landau (guitars, keyboards) and Yael Shoshana Cohen (vocals), and was quickly signed by the indie label Anova Music. The group released their first EP, You're Mine, under Universal Records-Barclay in January 2016.
     Gil Landau and Yael Shoshana Cohen met in Tel Aviv through mutual friends. The idea of the group was conceived at Landau's birthday party in February 2011, when the band members began playing songs on Landau's father's old guitar.
      Landau and Shoshana dated briefly while forming the band, but went back to being bandmates.
       Landau and Cohen wrote and performed songs for 18 months before bringing on additional musicians. Mati Gilad (Bass), Rami Osservaser (Guitar, Keyboards), Dekel Dvir (Drums and samplers) joined them shortly after. The group started performing in local clubs. They were spotted by the leading local indie label Anova Music who signed the band. The band's name was arrived at when the members were calling out possible names for the group and the name Lola Marsh was suggested and stuck.
       The duo gained notoriety on the heels of their 2014 performance at Primavera Sound Festival.
Lost and found
My mind, but only for a moment
All my crimes are safe, beneath my heart
 
And I try, oh, I try
To pretend that I am fine
Tell me why, oh, tell me why
I need you by my side
 
And suddenly I'm bored, I'm dancing in the dark
Counting all the billboards, and the city lights
I keep all my affection in a paper cup
Oh I, oh I'm
 
Running after bluebirds, show you what I've got
Save all my tomorrows from the lonely nights
Can you hear me crying? Baby I'm alright
Oh I, oh I
 
Rest your eyes
Better days are coming, I can feel it
All my lies are safe beside you now
 
And I try, oh, I try
To pretend that I'm fine
Tell me why, oh, tell me why
I need you by my side
 
And suddenly I'm bored, I'm dancing in the dark
Counting all the billboards and the city lights
I keep all my affection in a paper cup
Oh I, oh I'm
 
Running after bluebirds, show you what I've got
Save all my tomorrows from the lonely night
Can you hear me crying? Baby, I'm alright
Oh I, oh, I
 
You stayed only for a moment
I said "Stay with me a while"
You faded like a pretty snowflake
That I was holding in my hand
You stayed only for a moment
I said "Stay with me a while"
You faded like a pretty snowflake
That I was holding in my hand
 
Lost and found
My mind, but only for a moment.

          Elena Jane Goulding(/ˈɡoʊldɪŋ/GOHL-ding; born 30 December 1986) is an English singer and songwriter. Her career began when she met record producers Starsmith and Frankmusik, and she was later spotted by Jamie Lillywhite, who later became her manager and A&R. After signing to Polydor Records in July 2009, Goulding released her debut extended play, An Introduction to Ellie Goulding later that year.
            In 2010, she became the second artist to top the BBC's annual Sound of... poll and win the Critics' Choice Award at the Brit Awards in the same year. She released her debut studio album, Lights, in 2010; it debuted at Nº1 on the UK Albums Chart and has sold over 850,000 copies in the UK. In November 2010, the album was reissued as Bright Lights, spawning two singles: a cover of Elton John's "Your Song", which reached Nº 2 on the UK Singles Chart; and "Lights", which peaked at Nº 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100, becoming Goulding's highest-charting single to date.
       Lights is the debut studio album by English singer and songwriter Ellie Goulding. It was released on 26 February 2010 by Polydor Records. Goulding collaborated with several producers on the album, including Starsmith, Fraser T. Smith, Frankmusik, Richard "Biff" Stannard, Ash Howes, Liam Howe, Fred Falke and Mumford & Sons' Ben Lovett. The album received generally positive reviews from music critics. Commercially, it debuted atop the UK Albums Chart with first-week sales of 36,854 copies. In North America, Lights charted at number 21 in the United States and at number 66 in Canada. Four singles were released from the album: "Under the Sheets", "Starry Eyed", "Guns and Horses" and "The Writer".
          The album was re-released as Bright Lights on 29 November 2010, including seven new tracks. It spawned two additional singles—a cover version of Elton John's "Your Song", which peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart, and "Lights", which reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100 and became Goulding's most successful single in the US. On 8 March 2011, the album was released in the United States, with two songs removed and featuring three songs that were previously not available on the original version, but were included on the Bright Lights reissue.
        On 26 February 2020, Goulding re-released the album once again for its tenth anniversary. Entitled Lights 10, the re-release includes the seven bonus tracks previously featured on Bright Lights along with the six remixes featured on the 2010 EP Run into the Light. For Record Store Day 2020, Goulding announced an LP release of this reissue; pressed as a double LP on recycled vinyl to reduce environmental impact.
It's a little bit funny
This feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can
Easily hide
 
I don't have much money
But boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where
We both could live.
 
So excuse me forgetting
But these things I do
See I've forgotten if
They're green or they're blue
 
Anyway the thing is,
What I really mean,
Yours are the sweetest eyes
I've ever seen
 
And you can tell everybody
This is your song
It maybe quite simple but
Now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is
Now you're in the world
 
If I was a sculptor
But then again no
Or a girl who makes potions in
A traveling show
I know it's not much but
It's the best I can do.
My gift is my song and
This one's for you.
 
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
 
And you can tell everybody
This is your song
It may be quite simple but
Now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is
Now you're in the world.

I feel nervous in a way that can't be named
I dreamt last night of a sign that read, "The end of love"
And I remember thinking even in my dreaming
It was a good line for a song
 
We were a family pulled from a flood
You tore the floorboards up
And let the river rush in
Not wash away, wash away
 
We were reaching in the dark
That summer in New York
And it was so far to fall
But it didn't hurt at all
You let it wash away, wash away
 
And in a moment of joy and fury I threw myself
From the balcony like my grandmother some years before me
I've always been in love with you
Could you tell it from the moment that I met you?
 
And we were a family pulled from a flood
You tore the floorboards up
And let the river rush in
Not wash away, wash away
 
We were reaching in the dark (wash away)
That summer in New York (wash away)
And was it so far to fall (wash away)
Said it didn't hurt at all
I let it wash away, wash away
 
And Joshua came down from the mountain
With a tablet in his hands
Told me that he loved me, yeah
And then ghosted me again
 
We were reaching in the dark
That summer in New York
And it was so far to fall
But it didn't hurt at all
I let it wash away, wash away
 
Reaching in the dark (wash away)
That summer in New York (wash away)
And was it so far to fall? (wash away)
But it didn't hurt at all
I let it wash away, wash away.

I've been watchin' you for some time
Can't stop starin' at those ocean eyes
Burning cities and napalm skies
Fifteen flares inside those ocean eyes
Your ocean eyes
 
No fair
You really know how to make me cry
When you gimme those ocean eyes
I'm scared
I've never fallen from quite this high
Fallin' into your ocean eyes
Those ocean eyes
 
I've been walkin' through a world gone blind
Can't stop thinkin' of your diamond mind
Careful creature made friends with time
He left her lonely with a diamond mind
And those ocean eyes
 
No fair
You really know how to make me cry
When you gimme those ocean eyes
I'm scared
I've never fallen from quite this high
Fallin' into your ocean eyes
Those ocean eyes
 
Da, da-da, da-da
Da-da-da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da-da-da-da
Mm
Mm
Mm
 
No fair
You really know how to make me cry
When you gimme those ocean eyes
I'm scared
I've never fallen from quite this high
Fallin' into your ocean eyes
Those ocean eyes.

      Marina Lambrini Diamandis(born 10 October 1985), better known by her stage name Marina is a Welsh singer-songwriter. She rose to fame after placing second in the BBC Sound of 2010 poll behind Ellie Goulding in the United Kingdom.
     Her debut album "The Family Jewels" was released in 2010, which contained five singles. The album reached number five upon release in the UK. Lead single "Mowgli's Road" was re-released in November 2009 whilst Marina was working on the album. Second single "Hollywood" peaked at number 12 in the UK Singles Chart. Third and fourth singles "I Am Not A Robot" and "Oh No!" became other top forty hits. Fifth and final single "Shampain" was released in October 2010.
    Marina released the single "Radioactive" in October 2011 as a lead single for her second album "Electra Heart", and it became her fourth top forty single. "Primadonna" was used as the lead single instead in April 2012 and achieved worldwide success. Marina released "Electra Heart" in the UK a week after the release of the song. It debuted at number one in the UK whilst "Primadonna" reached number eleven. "Power & Control" was released only in the UK as a second single.
        Marina's third studio album, 'FROOT' was released 13 March 2015 following the leak of the whole album in February of that year. Many critics named this the best album ever released in terms of lyrics, production and general aesthetic.
         On 16 July 2014, Marina published the bridge of the absolute tune, 'I'm Not Hungry Anymore', on Instagram, which many hoped would appear in FROOT repackage. Unfortunately not. However, in 2017 the whole song was leaked and revealed to be an absolute bop.
You've been acting awful tough lately
Smoking a lot of cigarettes lately
But inside, you're just a little baby
It's okay to say you've got a weak spot
You don't always have to be on top
Better to be hated
Than loved loved loved for what your not
 
You're vulnerable, you're vulnerable
You are not a robot
You're lovable, so lovable
But you're just troubled
 
Guess what I'm not a robot, a robot
Guess what I'm not a robot, a robot
 
You've been hanging with the unloved kids
Who you never really liked and you never trusted
But you are so magnetic, you pick up all the pins
Never committing to anything
You don't pick up the phone when it ring, ring, rings
Don't be so pathetic, just open up and sing
 
I'm vulnerable, I'm vulnerable
I am not a robot
You're lovable, so lovable
But you're just troubled
 
Guess what I'm not a robot, a robot
Guess what I'm not a robot, a robot
 
Can you teach me how to feel real
Can you turn my power on
Well, let the drum beat drop
 
Guess what I'm not a robot
Guess what I'm not a robot
 
Guess what I'm not a robot, a robot
Guess what I'm not a robot, a robot
Guess what I'm not a robot, a robot
Guess what I'm not a robot, a robot.

Taken in by what you've told me
But keep it all inside your songs
This isn't real, you don't even know me
How am I what you're thinking of?
 
You see you're turning a little crazy
Speaking love into the dust
I've seen it torn into every shape
I've seen it leaving fast
 
It's a burning fire
It'll be a wreck
A bitter dream
That makes you beg
It falls like rain
It turns to dust
How'd you make a love like that last?
How'd you make a love like that last?
 
If you wanna know the answer's yes
I want you for my only one
Everything feels inside out
My blood is burning in the sun
 
How'd you make the rays so strong?
The haze of love when you are near
But aren't you afraid of the state of us
When it disappears?
 
It's a burning fire
It'll be a wreck
A bitter dream
That makes you beg
It falls like rain
It turns to dust
How'd you make a love like that last?
How'd you make a love like that last?
