La canzone di oggi, come altre che ho messo, mi è tornata in mente risentendola più volte in pochi giorni. E' degli Spandau Ballet, un gruppo epico degli anni '80, che si contendeva il successo e l'adorazione delle ragazze con i Duran Duran di Simon Le Bon e gli Wham! di George Michael. I miei preferiti erano gli ultimi ma anche gli altri due gruppi hanno fatto delle canzoni molto belle che sono rimaste un po' nella storia della musica. Credo che la canzone di oggi, "Through the barricades", sia la più bella degli Spandau. Di sicuro è la mia preferita e mi ricorda tanto le gite scolastiche e le canzoni cantate sui sedili dei pullman e ballate (ballate....!?) nelle feste in casa della mitica Elena (vero Simo?...). Through the barricades (Spandau Ballet)Mother doesn’t know where love has gone She says it must be youth That keeps us feeeling strong See it in her face, that’s turned to ice And when she smiles she shows The lines of sacrifice And now I know what they’re saying When the sun begins to fade And we made our love on wasteland And through the barricades Father made my history He fought for what he thought Would set us somehow free He tought me what to say in school I learned off by heart But now that’s torn in two And now I know what they’re saying In the music of the parade We made our love on wasteland And through the barricades Born on different sides of life We feel the same And feel all of this strife So come to me when I’m asleep We’ll cross the line And dance upon the street And now I know what they’re saying When the drums begin to fade We made our love on wasteland And through the barricades Oh, turn around and I’ll be there There’s a scar through my heart But I’ll bare it again I thought? we were the human race But we were just another border-line-case And the stars reach down and tell us That there’s always one escape I don’t know where love has gone And in this trouble land Desperation keep us strong Fridays child is full of soul With nothing left to lose There’s everything to goAnd now I know what they’re are saying It’s a terrible beauty we’ve made So we make our love on? wasteland And through the barricades Now I know what they’re are saying As hearts go to their graves We made our love on? wasteland And through the barricades.
Attraverso le barricate
