Anche se Freddie Mercury faceva parte di Queen, ci sono alcune canzoni dove mi sembra che non c'è nessuna banda. Non c'è nessun Queen, solo lui, al pianoforte, da solo.
Tutti si ricordiamo di grandi successi dei Queen come Bohemin Rapsody o We Are The Champions, ma c'è una canzone di Freddie Mercury perduta da tempo è riemersa.
Proprio questa canzone intitolata ‘TIME WAITS FOR NO ONE' esprime la forza delle parole e del testo di questa bellissima canzone.
Il buon amico di Mercury, il musicista e produttore britannico Dave Clark, dice che ‘the words, it's like he tastes the words. It's like he really feels and means it'.
Mia intenzione non è parlare della musica ma come ascoltando le canzoni in inglese potete migliorare vostro inglese. Ricordatevi che l'ascolto è la chiave per parlare inglese!
Freddie Mercury - Time Waits For No One
Testo
Time waits for nobody
Time waits for nobody
We all must plan our hopes together
And we'll have no more future at all
Time waits for nobody
We might as well be deaf and dumb and blind
I know that sounds unkind
But it seems to me
We've not listened to
Or spoken about it at all
The fact that time was running out for us all
Time waits for nobody
Time waits for no one
We've got to build this world together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Because time
It waits for nobody
Nobody
You don't need me to tell you what's gone wrong
You know what's going on
And it seems to me we've not cared enough
Or confided in each other at all
It seems like we've all got our backs against the wall
Time waits for nobody
Time waits for no one
We've got to trust one another
Or we'd have no more future at all
Because time
Waits for nobody
Waits for nobody
Time waits for no one
Best not to be friends with one another
Or we'd have no more future at all
Time waits for nobody
For nobody, nobody, nobody
For no one
Freddie Mercury - The Show Must Go On
Testo
Abandoned places, I guess we know the score, on and on
Does anybody know what we are looking for?
Another hero, another mindless crime
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime
Hold the line
Does anybody want to take it anymore?
The show must go on, yeah
Inside my heart is breaking
My makeup may be flaking
But my smile, still, stays on
Another heartache, another failed romance, on and on
Does anybody know what we are living for?
I guess I'm learning
I must be warmer now
I'll soon be turning, round the corner now
Outside the dawn is breaking
But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free
The show must go on
Inside my heart is breaking
My makeup may be flaking
But my smile, still, stays on
Fairy tales of yesterday, grow but never die
I can fly, my friends
The show must go on
I'll face it with a grin
I'm never giving in
On with the show
I'll overkill
I have to find the will to carry on
On with the show
Show
Show must go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on
Freddie Mercury - Love Me Like There’s No Tomorrow
Testo
You had to kill the conversation
You always had the upper hand
Got caught in love and stepped in sinking sand
You had to go and ruin all our plans
Packed your bags and you're leaving home
Got a one-way ticket and you're all set to go
But we have one more day together
So, love me like there's no tomorrow
Hold me in your arms tell me you mean it
This is our last goodbye
And very soon it will be over
But today just love me like there's no tomorrow
I guess we drift alone in separate ways
I don't have all that far to go
God knows I've learnt to play the lonely man
I've never felt so low in all my life
We were born to be just losers
So, I guess there's a limit on how far we go
But we only have one more day together
So, love me like there's no tomorrow
Hold me in your arms tell me you mean it
This is our last goodbye
And very soon it will be over
But today just love me like there's no tomorrow
Tomorrow
God knows just where I'll be
Tomorrow
Who knows just what's in store for me
Anything can happen
But we only have
One more day together, yeah
Just one more day forever
So, love me like there's no tomorrow
Hold me in your arms tell me you mean it
This is our last goodbye
And very soon it will be over
But today just love me like there's no tomorrow
So, love me like there's no tomorrow
Hold me in your arms tell me you mean it
This is our last goodbye
And very soon it will be over
But today just love me like there's no tomorrow
