Mi sono innamorato di questa canzone dei The Gossip, il gruppo inglese capitanato da Beth Ditto, controversa e istrionica lead singer del gruppo, dalla splendida e potente voce. Dopo alcuni singoli di successo, tra cui spicca di certo “Heavy cross” con la quale si sono fatti conoscere anche da noi e dal grande pubblico, questa uptempo elettro rock è a parer mio davvero irresistibile, accompagnata poi da un video divertente e colorato. Il loro album è “Music for men” . Voi cosa ne pensate?

testo:

Find yourself in a situation
Can’t talk your way out of
Stimulate the conversation
How do you rise above
You try to tell some one
But you can’t describe it
We’ll start a demonstration
Or we’ll create a scene
Make noise from our frustration
Newspapers, magazines
We’ll turn them on their heads
You can’t deny it

For once
We’ll do what come naturally
We’ll approach it casually
With no apology
For once
We will have the final say
Goodbye to yesterday
‘Cause we know we’re hear to stay

Pop, pop, pop goes the world
New sensation
Pop, pop, pop goes the world
New creation

Give every generation
A different set of rules
We’ll start with TV stations
The radios and schools
Just try to have some fun
And don’t get caught
We’ll capture their attention
We’ll make them quite aware
Of all of our intentions
We’ll make ‘em stop and stare
They’ll take a second look
On second thought

For once
We’ll do what come naturally
We’ll approach it casually
With no apology
For once
We can have the final say
Goodbye to yesterday
‘Cause they know we’re hear to stay

Pop, pop, pop goes the world
New salvation
Pop, pop, pop goes the world
New translation
Pop, pop, pop goes the world
New elation
Pop, pop, pop goes the world
New sensation

Dopo il successo di “Dancing on my own” che continua a sentirsi spesso in radio, ecco per l’eclettica cantante elettro-pop inglese l’ora di pubblicare un nuovo album, che continua il suo progetto iniziato con l’ultimo album, tantè che il titolo sarà “Body talk part 2 ” . La canzone, una possibile hit dance è nient’altro che la versione elettronica di una canzone acustica gia contenuta in “Body talk part. 1 ” . Eccola

testo:

Will you tell me once again
How we’re gonna be just friends
If you’re for real and not pretend
Then I guess you can Hang With Me

When My Patience wearing thin
When I’m ready to give in
Will you Pick me up again
Then I guess you can Hang With Me

And if you do me right
I’m gonna do right by you
And if you keep it tight
I’m gonna confide in you

I know what’s on your mind
though they’ll be time for that too
if you hang with me
Hang with me

Just don’t fall recklessly
headlessly in love with me
cause it’s gonna be
all heart break
Blissfully painful in insanity
if we agree
You can hang with me

When you see me drift astray
Out of touch and out of place
Will you tell me to my face
Then I guess you can hang with me

And if you do me right
I’m gonna do right by you
And if you keep it tight
I’m gonna confide in you

I know what’s on your mind
though they’ll be time for that too
if you hang with me
Hang with me

Just don’t fall recklessly
headlessly in love with me
cause it’s gonna be
all heart break
Blissfully painful in insanity
if we agree
You can hang with me

I know what’s on your mind
though they’ll be time for that too
if you hang with me
Hang with me

Just don’t fall recklessly
headlessly in love with me
cause it’s gonna be
all heart break
Blissfully painful in insanity
if we agree

Oh whoa
You can hang with me

Hang with me

Secondo singolo per Katy Perry, estratto dal nuovo album “Teenage dream” in uscita a fine agosto, dopo il grandissimo successo sia negli USA che in Europa di “California Gurls” , primo fortunatissimo singolo in collaborazione con Snoop Dog. Con questa nuova canzone che da anche il titolo a tutto l’album, le sonorità sono sempre quelle frizzanti, estive e catchy che caratterizzano la sua musica, per questo sono convinto del fatto che anche questa canzone riuscirà a far bene nelle classifiche! Eccola

testo:

You think I’m pretty
Without any make-up on
You think I’m funny
When I tell the punch line wrong
I know you get me
So I’ll let my walls come down, down

Before you met
I was a wreck
But things were kinda heavy
You brought me to life
Now every February
You’ll be my valentine, valentine

Let’s go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance until we die
You and I
We’ll be young forever

You make me
Feel like
I’m living a Teenage Dream
The way you turn me on
I can’t sleep
Let’s runaway
And don’t ever look back
Don’t ever look back

My heart stops
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now baby I believe
This is real
So take a chance
And don’t ever look back
Don’t ever look back

We drove to Cali
And got drunk on the beach
Got a motel and
Built a floor out of sheets
I finally found you
My missing puzzle piece
I’m complete

Let’s go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance until we die
You and I
We’ll be young forever

You make me
Feel like
I’m living a Teenage Dream
The way you turn me on
I can’t sleep
Let’s runaway
And don’t ever look back
Don’t ever look back

My heart stops
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now baby I believe
This is real
So take a chance
And don’t ever look back
Don’t ever look back

I might get your heart racing
In my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight

Let you put your hands on me
In my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight

You make me
Feel like
I’m living a Teenage Dream
The way you turn me on
I can’t sleep
Let’s runaway
And don’t ever look back
Don’t ever look back

My heart stops
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now baby I believe
This is real
So take a chance
And don’t ever look back
Don’t ever look back

Nuova release in vista per la band inglese degli Skunk Anansie, recentemente riformata dopo diversi anni di silenzio, anni in cui la cantante poliedrica Skin aveva intrapreso la carriera solistica con discreti risultati. Dopo il Best of dello scorso anno, contenente i due singoli di successo, ecco che il primo album del loro ritorno sarà “Wonderlust” in uscita il 16 Settembre, e questa rockettara “My ugly boy” è il primo singolo, già accompagnato dal video. Io adoro Skin, la sua voce e il modo in cui si esibisce sul palco, da sicuramente una marcia in più ad una band storica nello scenario rock europeo! Eccola

testo:

The cheaper the face I love it
rough but beautiful
and wherever he likes to go
the dirtiest girls will show

The sweeter the ways I love him
warm but beautiful
‘cos wherever he likes to go
the freakiest boys will blow

Blown away
my ugly boy
my sweetest toy
my ugly boy, boy, boy

The cheaper the face I love him
odd but fruitful
cos the better the bitch I roll
the harder /faster/ he will fall

Fall for me
my ugly boy
my sweetest toy
my ugly boy, boy, boy

my ugly boy
my sweetest toy
my ugly boy, boy, boy

And I know what I’d like to do
Take him down and make him fall
and i know how I’d like to roll
my, my ugly boy

my ugly boy
my sweetest toy
my ugly boy,

my ugly boy
my sweetest toy
my ugly boy, boy, boy

Nuovo, primo singolo per la band irlandese dei The Script, che personalmente adoro e ho apprezzato molto nel loro primo album, uno stile a metà tra U2 e Coldplay, belle melodie e la voce davvero incantevole del cantante! Speriamo davvero che il loro nuovo album in uscita a Settembre ed intitolato Science and Faith non deluda le aspettative dei fans, e a giudicare dal primo singolo hanno scelto di continuare nello stile che gli ha resi famosi. Il primo singolo parla della fine di un amore a causa di difficoltà economiche nella coppia. A voi piace? Ditelo nei commenti…

testo:

she’s all layed up in bed with a broken heart
while i’m drinking Jack all alone in my local bar

shes in line at the door with her head held high
well i just lost my job, but didn’t lose my pride
and we both know how
how we are gonna make it work when it hurts,
when you you pick up yourself up you get kicked to the dirt

trying to make things work,
but man these times are hard

but we are gonna stop by drinking all cheap bottles of wine
sit talking up all night,
doing things we haven’t for a while

even after all these years
we just now got the feeling that where meeting

Dopo il grande successo di “Wavin’ flag” , diventata facilmente un tormentone estivo un pò in tutto il mondo in quanto colonna sonora dei recentemente conclusi campionati mondiali di calcio, l’artista canadese K’naan, che mischia pop, hip hop e sonorità elettroniche (grazie spesso all’apporto di produzioni di dj famosi come Guetta) estrae un nuovo singolo per questa seconda parte dell’estate 2010 che entra nel vivo, si tratta di Bang Bang, dall’album “trobadour” e che vede la partecipazioni nei vocals di Adam Levine, cantante dei Maroon 5. Una canzone estiva, fresca, perfetta per l’estate, voi cosa ne pensate?

testo:

(Intro)

She shot me, she shot me,
Bang, bang… she shot me. (x3)
She shot me, she shot me,
Bang, bang. (Get out the way, yo)

(Verse 1)

Ahh… there she goes again,
The girl is Ethiopian.
In other words, she came through explodin’
In the podium, dynamite
Napoleon like sodium mixed with petroleum,
Slowly but surely, she was walking toward me
Cut the convo short ‘cause she had to wake up early,
But continuing the story,
Don’t worry she gave me digits for her Blackberry
“You’re very handsome” is what she said.
And the way she looked in my eyes said “Put me to bed.”

(Pre-chorus)

Oh my, oh my, I should have known when she said to me on the phone:
“You do not know me very well, but I would never hurt a fly.”
Then she aimed at my chest with love in her eye.
I said she aimed at my chest with love in her eye.

(Chorus)

Adam Levine:
She was walkin’ around with a loaded shotgun
Ready to fire me a hot one.
It went bang, bang, bang…
Straight through my heart. (Straight through my heart)
Although I could have walked away,
I stood my ground and let her spray.

K’naan:
She shot me, she shot me
Bang ,bang… she shot me (x3)
She shot me, she shot me
Bang, bang.

(Verse 2)

Scorpion,
She’s so hot she’s a scorch-ian,
Killing me softly,
Lauryn or Kevorkian,
Couldn’t tell if she’s coo-coo or corky, when
I asked her her name she said “Call me Ten.”
Testing, testing
Things just got more interesting
She’s dressed in a vest pin, double-breasted holster,
A very Western toaster,
She ain’t nothing Kosher.
Ah… she lets me closer.
Hotter than a pepper-crusted Samosa
While I try to keep my composure.

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

Am I wrong?
But what is love without the pain to go along?
And what is pain if not the reason for me to sing this song?
And this song is for the weak and for the strong.
Cause I was strong and still…
She got me, she got me,
Bang, bang… she got me.
She got me, she got me,
Bang, bang.

(Chorus)

E’ esploso nel 2004 il suo successo, grazie a due singoli ( these words e unwritten) che hanno spopolato in tutta Europa e anche in USA, sto parlando di Natasha Bedingfield,  artista britannica sorella dell’altrettanto famoso Daniel Bedingfield, che ci ha incantato con le sue sonorità spiccatamente pop, allegre ed estive, a cui si aggiungono delle venature alle volte rock, alle volte dance, unite ad una voce davvero interessante. Ecco “Touch” il suo nuovo singolo, voi che ne pensate?

testo:

La cantante ci parla di questa canzone durante un’intervista dicendo: “Sorelle D’Italia è nata con uno spot di 30” per esaltare la femminilità di un brand italiano. L’idea di svilupparla a canzone è nata per accontentare tutti quelli che hanno apprezzato questa nuova versione dell’inno al femminile, me compresa ! Un’operazione che ha mostrato quanto sia bello musicalmente e possa essere sempre attuale il nostro inno spesso bistrattato. Io l’ho interpretato con grande orgoglio e passione”. Vi lascio al video e al testo della canzone. STAY TUNED ON MUSICJAM♫♫♫!

Ecco il testo:

Sorelle d’Italia
l’Italia s’è desta
dell’elmo di Scipio
s’è cinta la testa
Dov’è la Vittoria?
Le porga la
chioma che
schiava di Roma
Iddio la creò.
Sorelle d’Italia
l’Italia s’è desta
dell’elmo di Scipio
s’è cinta la testa
Dov’è la Vittoria?
Le porga la
chioma che
schiava di Roma
Iddio la creò.
Coro:
Sorelle d’Italia
l’Italia s’è desta
dell’elmo di Scipio
s’è cinta la testa
Dov’è la Vittoria?
Le porga la chioma
che schiava
di Roma
Iddio la creò.

Si tratta di una ballata scritta da Johnta Austin e originariamente era proprio quest’ultima a cantarla insieme a Mary J. Blige. Il video è stato girato in due posti diversi. La parte di Mary J. Blige è stata girata a Miami mentre quella di Trey Songz a New York City. Vi lascio al video, al testo e alla traduzione della canzone. Che cosa ve ne pare? STAY TUNED ON MUSICJAM♫♫♫!
