1a canzone al giorno

L'altra sera al TG1 c'è stato un servizio su Sting che ha ricantato a 37 anni dall'incisione la sua bellissima canzone "Russians" tratta dall'album "The Dream of the Blue Turtles" uscito nel 1985. Mai avrebbe pensato di doverlo fare in occasione di un'altra guerra con la Russia coinvolta. Non l'ho mai messa e al di là del momento è decisamente un pezzo da pubblicare. Buon ascolto!

Russians (Sting)

In Europe and America
There’s a growing feeling of hysteria
Conditioned to respond to all the threats
In the rhetorical speeches of the Soviets
Mr. Khrushchev said we will bury you
I don’t subscribe to this point of view
It would be such an ignorant thing to do
If the Russians love their children too

How can I save my little boy
From Oppenheimer’s deadly toy?
There is no monopoly of common sense
On either side of the political fence

We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Russians love their children too

[Instrumental break]

There is no historical precedent
To put the words in the mouth of the president
There’s no such thing as a winnable war
It’s a lie we don’t believe anymore
Mr. Reagan says we will protect you
I don’t subscribe to this point of view
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Russians love their children too

We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
What might save us me and you
Is if the Russians love their children too
