Noia (first take)


Get Flash to see this player.

Description
This a 20 years old song I recorded in Italy on a Tascam 4 track cassette recorder.
I played/programmed all the instruments and Francesca sang.
We called this duo "De Nada, Thank You", in memory of a nice shot in the "Il nome della rosa" movie.
I transfered it from the stereo master tape (just a metal cassette) and I processed (very little) the sound in GarageBand.
I plan to record a new 21th century version of this song and I am also open to collaborations.

Lyrics
Lyrics were composed by Francesca. They are a bit obscure (for those who understand italian), I believe. Nevertheless, I love them since they evoke a lot of metaphors and allegories.

Italian lyrics:

Se la vita non ti va tu la devi nascondere
Sotto veli trasparenti di colore fum�
Cos� pensi che tutto sia risolto
E ti butti sul tuo letto per un po' di relax

La gente corre e va verso posti che non sa
E tu resti sempre qua a pensare cose che son vere a met�

Ma la noia che ti assale non la puoi nascondere
E' in agguato dappertutto, adesso � dietro te
Magari puoi sognare di non viverla
E' un sogno breve che non dura,
ti sveglierai.

E tu dici cambier�, sei sicuro che accadr�
ed aspetti sempre che

Il buio che hai dentro
venga tutto cancellato,
che un respiro nuovo
ti salga in gola

Nonostante tutto ti senti invincibile
e guerreggi in ogni instante
con tutto quello che hai
e domani le ombre scure che hai dentro te
moriranno con la luce
sarai solo e saprai perch�.

Nice
The music reminds me of something, but I can't put my finger on what it is. I don't speak or understand Italian at all, but it sounds pretty good. Good job, keep up the good work.
