Risplendere nella grandezza dell'odio.

Semplicemente, mi ci sono imbattuto (riguardando Romance & Cigarettes di John Turturro).
Roba vecchia, ma non l'avevo mai vista/sentita prima.
Un uomo uccide una donna, la affoga. Una donna canta della sua morte.
Testi bellissimi, musica splendida, entrambi di Nick Cave.
Voce meravigliosa di Ute Lemper.



Under here, you just take my breath away
Under here, the water flows over my head
I can hear the little fishes

Under here whispering your most terrible name
Under here, they've given me starfish for eyes
And your head is a big red balloon

Under here, your huge hand is heavy on my chest
Ah, and under here, Sir, your lovely voice retreats
And yes, you take my breath away

Look at my hair, as it waves and waves
Sir, under here, I have such pretty hair
Silver, it is, and filled with silver bubbles

Ah, and under here, my blood will be a cloud
And under here my dreams are made of water
And, Sir, you just take my breath away

For under here, my pretty breasts are piled high
With stones and I cannot breathe
And tiny little fishes enter me

Under here, I am made ready
And under here, I am washed clean
And I glow with the greatness of my hate for you
