La Canzone del Momento.

Mentre sono in macchina spesso e volentieri ascolto Chronicle (volume 1 e 2)
dei Creedence Clear Water.
Diverse canzoni mi hanno colpito: Bad Moon Rising, Green River, Someday never comes, Cotton Fields, Beforse You accuse Me, Lodi, Who'll Stop the Rain.

Potrebbe essere tutto perfetto se intorno a me ci fosse uno scenario tipicamente americano invece della tangenziale di Torino.. Anyway..

Ora come ora il pezzo che preferisco è : Someday Never Comes.

First thing I remember was askin' papa, "Why?",
For there were many things I didn't know.
And Daddy always smiled; took me by the hand,
Sayin', "Someday you'll understand."

Well, I'm here to tell you now each and ev'ry mother's son
You better learn it fast; you better learn it young,
'Cause, "Someday" Never Comes."

Well, time and tears went by and I collected dust,
For there were many things I didn't know.
When Daddy went away, he said,
"Try to be a man, And, Someday you'll understand."

And then, one day in April, I wasn't even there,
For there were many things I didn't know.
A son was born to me;
Mama held his hand,
Sayin' "Someday you'll understand."

Think it was September, the year I went away,
For there were many things I didn't know.
And I still see him standing, try'n' to be a man;
I said, "Someday you'll understand."
