Un’acquisto stupido come puo’ essere quello di un paio di casse acustiche mi sta cambiando un po’ di cose. Gia’ il fatto di poter ascoltare musica facendo qualcos’altro, puo’ cambiarti la giornata.
Ad esempio… ieri ho avuto "The very best of James Taylor", artista verso il quale nutro molta curiosità, e questa mattina prima di venire (tardi) a lavoro l’ho ascoltato.
Beh, piccola considerazione: certa musica è molto meglio ascoltarla dalle casse, in cuffia dal lettore MP3 non rende…
Comunque, arrivo ad una traccia che mi ha lasciato…. stupito.
Una canzone che si addice a questo periodo, e che infatti è la canzone del giorno:

"Something In the Way She Moves"
James Taylor (Album: "James Taylor" – 1968)

There’s something in the way she moves,
Or looks my way, or calls my name,
That seems to leave this troubled world behind.
If I’m feeling down and blue,
Or troubled by some foolish game,
She always seems to make me change my mind.

And I feel fine anytime she’s around me now,
She’s around me now
Almost all the time.
And If I’m well you can tell that she’s been with me now,
And she’s been with me now
Quite a long, long time
And I feel fine.

Every now and then the things I lean on lose their meaning,
And I find myself careening
Into places where I should not let me go.
She has the power to go where no one else can find me,
Yes, and to silently remind me
Of the happiness and good times that I know, you know.
Well I said I just got to know that:

It isn’t what she’s got to say
Or how she thinks or where she’s been.
To me, the words are nice, the way they sound.
I like to hear them best that way -
It doesn’t much matter what they mean,
When she says them mostly just to calm me down.

And I feel fine anytime she’s around me now,
she’s around me now
Almost all the time.
If I’m well you can tell that she’s been with me now,
And she’s been with me now
Quite a long,
Long
Time
Yes, and I feel fine.
