9/18th - A tribute to Jimi Hendrix

18 settembre 1970

Il 18 settembre del 1970 Jimi Hendrix si è spento in una camera d'albergo. Durante la notte compose la sua ultima canzone dal titolo "Story of life" di cui sono rimaste solo le liriche. La musica, che certamente ha composto e suonato  quella notte lontana 37 anni prima di andarsene per sempre, quella no, non c'è l'ha voluta lasciare. Il diritto d'autore, quello tradizionale che sta affondando insieme alle major dopo che lo hanno sfruttato oltremisura non consentirebbe a nessuno, senza il costosissimo permesso degli eredi di Jimi Hendirx, di musicare quelle parole. Cosa che Jimi Hendrix avrebbe sicuramente voluto. Se allora fossero esistite le licenze Creative Commons, oggi potremmo ascoltare decine, che dico, centinaia di canzoni con quel testo, una per ogni musicista che nei suoni selvaggi e dolcissimi della chitarra e della voce di Jimi Hendrix abbia trovato ispirazione, energia e anche sollievo alla durezza della vita da artista. E' il trentassettesimo anniversario della sua morte e io vorrei ricordarlo pubblicando "The Story of Life" musicata da mio fratello, ma proprio non posso. In alternativa pubblico un suo pezzo che si intitola "Still craying" che in questa occasione ha comunque un suo senso.

Money and fame
(Parole e musica di Marcello Cosenza)

I wish I could fly tonight
fly away from here
I'm looking the moon tonight
I can see your face shine
I will be fighting for freedom
For freedom in this world
and I now wonder if it's true and right
to go ahead and drop this bomb

I miss you all
while I'm here in this crazy war
I miss you all
I wanna come home
I'm tired to kill
I'm tired to see so many lives
betrayed and frame
for money and fame
for money and fame

I wish I could stop this war
I wish I could just be with you
tell me how Isabella is doing
is she still so bad at school
tell her I love her more than anything
and tell her I always be with her
but damn now I have to go
and drop this damn bombs

I miss you all
while I'm here in this crazy war
I miss you all
I wanna go home
I'm tired to kill
I'm tired to see so many lives
betrayed and frame
for money and fame

I've seen so many innocents death
I've seen so many cities on fire
I don't wanna drop this bombs
I don't wanna do anymore
oh Lord forgive us for our sins
forgive us for what we do
have mercy on people that I'm about to kill
damn I don't wanna drop this bomb

I miss you all
while I'm here in this crazy war
I miss you all
I just wanna go home
I'm tired to kill
I'm tired to see so many lives
betrayed and frame
for money and fame
for money and fame
for money and fame

One Day

One day
(Parole e musica di Marcello Cosenza)

I've seen so many liers
seating in church with their smile
I've seen so many hypocrites
controlling people's mind
and tell me what's this race
and why you thought  so many lies
is your vanity and pride
messing up your mind

another day
another night
only yourself and your lies
you look at the sky
you wish you can fly away
fly away from your life

be careful one day there will be an end
be careful one night you won't be able to hide

I've seen so many of you
come and go from this world
getting richer from the poor
using love as a tool
and do you think you'll be fine
while destroying so many lives
how can you think that it's ok
to abuse good people's love

one more day
one more night
only yourself and your lies
you look at the sky
you wish you can fly away
fly away from your life

be careful one day there will be an end
be careful one night you won't be able to hide

be careful one day there will be an end
be careful one night you won't be able to hide

Insane

Insane
(Parole e musica di Marcello Cosenza)

I've been waiting invane
you drive me insane
yes you really dominate
but soon you will pay
what can I tell you lover
what can I say
what can I tell you lover
you drive me insane
you drive me insane
you drive me insane
you drive me insane
you drive me insane
I can't really describe
what's going on in my mind
but tell me what is the price
to stop playing these games
I know you are a lie
lying in the name of the lie
I hate all that you are
I hate that you are alive
what can I tell you lover
what can I say
what can I tell you lover
you drive me insane
you drive me insane
you drive me insane
you drive me insane
you drive me insane
you drive me insane
you drive me insane
what can I say
you drive me insane
what can I say
you drive me insane
