RADIO CURE - Wilco

Gli Wilco si sono imposti come uno dei migliori gruppi alternative rock degli anni 2000, e ascoltando questa canzone (contenuta nel loro album migliore, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, 2002) si capisce il motivo. Le note, dure e spietate, si fondono con la voce malinconica di Jeff Tweedy creando un insieme misterioso, da scoprire ascolto dopo ascolto (geniale il synth in sottofondo). Insomma, una canzone che inizialmente può sembrare semplice, ma che con il tempo vi ammalierà con i suoi rumori nascosti. Una cura dalla monotonia delle star mainstream del momento.

Testo

Cheer up, honey, I hope you can
There is something wrong with me
My mind is filled with silvery stuff
Honey kisses, clouds of fluff
Shoulders shrugging off

Cheer up
Honey, I hope you can

There is something wrong with me
My mind is filled with radio cures
Electronic surgical words

Picking apples for kings and queens of things I've never seen
Oh, distance has no way of making love
Understandable

Cheer up
Honey, I hope you can

There is something wrong with me
My mind is filled with silvery stars
Honey kisses, clouds of love

Picking apples for the kings and queens of things I've never seen

Oh, distance has no way of making love
Understandable

Oh, distance has no way of making love
Understandable

Oh, distance has no way of making love
Understandable

Oh, distance has no way of making love
Understandable

Oh, distance has no way of making love
Understandable

Cheer up

Honey, I hope you can...
