1a canzone al giorno

Sempre per la serie "Ma come... non l'avevi mai messa?" oggi tocca ad un capolavoro assoluto della musica mondiale. La canzone del giorno è "Shine on you crazy diamond", che Roger Waters, David Gilmour e Richard Wright hanno dedicato, nel 1975, a Syd Barrett come tutto l'album "Wish you were here". Per le 2-3 persone che potrebbero non aver capito sto parlando dei Pink Floyd.... Buon ascolto... A domani...

Shine on your crazy diamond (Pink Floyd)

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.

Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom,
Blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!
You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.

Shine on you crazy diamond.
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
Rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!
