Fairytale Of New York
Into my arms
I don’t believe in an interventionist God
But I know, darling, that you do
But if I did I would kneel down and ask Him
Not to intervene when it came to you
Not to touch a hair on your head
To leave you as you are
And if He felt He had to direct you
Then direct you into my arms
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms
And I don’t believe in the existence of angels
But looking at you I wonder if that’s true
But if I did I would summon them together
And ask them to watch over you
To each burn a candle for you
To make bright and clear your path
And to walk, like Christ, in grace and love
And guide you into my arms
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms
But I believe in Love
And I know that you do too
And I believe in some kind of path
That we can walk down, me and you
So keep your candles burning
And make her journey bright and pure
That she will keep returning
Always and evermore
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms
THE BOATMAN’S CALL
NICK CAVE & THE BAD SEEDS
1997
ma se ci credessi, mi inginocchierei e Gli chiederei
di non intervenire quando si tratta di te
di non toccarti neanche un capello in testa
di lasciarti così come sei
è se proprio Lui volesse dirigerti
nelle mie braccia, o Signore
E non credo all'esistenza degli angeli
ma quando ti guardo penso invece che siano veri
ma se ci credessi, li convocherei tutti assieme
e chiederei loro di proteggerti
chiederei a ognuno di accendere una candela per te
di rendere luminoso e chiaro il tuo cammino
e di farti camminare, come Cristo, nella grazia e nell'amore
e di guidarti fra mie braccia
nelle mie braccia, o Signore
Ma credo nell'amore
e so che anche tu ci credi
lungo il quale potremo incamminarci, tu ed io
quindi tieni le tue candele accese
affinché lei possa tornare
nelle mie braccia, o Signore
nelle mie braccia

Deborah Harry & Nick Cave - Free To Walk
Have I been in your memory where it's better to love than ever can be?
Debbie & Nick:
Your door is always open and your path is free to walk
Your door is always open and your path is free to walk
Will I be able to dream easily than try to watch us in the shade?
Your door is always open and your path is free to walk
Your door is always open and your path is free to walk
I got somebody who makes me free
Who wears their whole heart
Debbie & Nick:
Back then that was easy
Coz your door is always open and your path is free to walk
Your door is always open and your path is free to walk
Nick:
I heard that train comin' around the curve
Debbie & Nick:
Whistlin' and churnin' and changin' my nerve
That train is always comin' and your path is free to walk
Your train is always comin' and your path is free to walk
That train is always comin' in
Brano inciso nel 2009 da Debbie Harry e Nick Cave... incluso in questa raccolta...
ed io lo scopro solo ora. Una vera perla nascosta.

Galileo, Burioni, il Polemista ed i coglioni
Di Burioni pensate quello che volete, ma questa risposta va studiata e imparata a memoria, specie da tutti quelli che negli ultimi anni si sentono "nel giusto" solo perché non allineati ad un certo tipo di pensiero dominante. Questo, prescindendo dal fatto che Galileo era dalla parte della scienza e del metodo sperimentale, laddove invece i vari complottari sono come i vecchi oscurantisti che sanno solo ragionare di pancia
Il Polemista misterioso
