Hounds of winter

Ritengo che Sting sia un uomo di grande talento.
Forse nei suoi dischi da solista ha tradito un po' le aspettative di chi amava i Police, ma può capitare.
Io stesso amo molto alcuni suoi brani ma altri li detesto.
Questo album (Mercury falling) è pazzesco: due capolavori, quattro minchiate...

Mentre rippavo la mia cd-teca ho ricordato proprio questo brano.
Buffo, anche oggi, mi piace da impazzire, ha un suo accordo con il mio mood odierno.
Ecco che leggo il testo (a me le parole scappano sempre, mi rapisce la musica)
Beh, la lettura mi ha quasi fermato il fiato: riflette MOLTO il mio status attuale...

THE HOUNDS OF WINTER

Mercury falling I rise from my bed,
Collect my thoughts together I have to hold my head
It seems that she's gone And somehow I am pinned by
The Hounds of Winter Howling in the wind

I walk through the day My coat around my ears
I look for my companion I have to dry my tears
It seems that she's gone Leaving me too soon
I'm as dark as December I'm as cold as the Man in the Moon

I still see her face As beautiful as day
It's easy to remember Remember my love that way
All I hear is that lonesome sound The Hounds of Winter They follow me down

I can't make up the fire The way that she could
I spend all my days In the search for dry wood
Board all the windows and close the front door
I can't believe she won't be here anymore

I still see her face As beautiful as day
It's easy to remember Remember my love that way
All I hear is that lonesome sound The Hounds of Winter
They follow me down

A season for joy A season for sorrow
Where she's gone I will surely, surely follow
She brightened my day She warmed the coldest night
The Hounds of Winter They got me in their sights

I still see her face As beautiful as day
It's easy to remember Remember my love that way
All I hear is that lonesome sound
The Hounds of Winter They harry me down

STRANE ASSONANZE

Ascoltate...
