Solid Ground

So tired

Of this flowing

Never knowing where we’re going, where we’re bound

 

So scared of

Time passing

Nothing lasting long enough to hold it down

Looking for

Solid ground.  2x

 

Still believe in

Good intentions

But you took this heart and turned it upside down

Looking for

Solid ground. 2x

 

Got me running, running, running going nowhere

I keep holding, holding, holding it’s so unfair

Looking for solid ground. 2x

 

So tired

Getting nothing

Giving all that I can, hoping something comes around

 

Looking for solid ground 2X

 

Got me running, running, running going nowhere

I keep holding, holding, holding it’s so unfair

Looking for solid ground. 2x

Stan Walker - I am

 

 

We are the color
Found in spring
You are the wind
Breathe into me
You inherit me
I inherit you
I am the language
You speak to me


As far as the eye can see
Everything has changed
Tell me how can we stand by
I don't wanna be the same


He toiora ahau nōu
Te toi nō Kurawaka
Taku rongomaiwhiti e


Tākiri ko te haeata
Anga atu ki te rā
Whiti, whiti ki te ora e


We are the waters
The rivers and streams
Flow through the armor
Of a dying breed
I am with you & you are with me
Baptized in fire
We're lions in the ring


As far as the eye can see
Everything has changed
Tell me how can we stand by
I don't wanna be the same


He toiora ahau nōu
Te toi nō Kurawaka
Taku rongomaiwhiti e


Tākiri ko te haeata
Anga atu ki te rā
Whiti, whiti ki te ora e


Hou mai rā
Tō rongo e
Hou mai rā
Tō karere
Mau tonu e


Hou mai rā
Tō rongo e
Hou mai rā
Tō karere
Mau tonu e


Hou mai rā
Tō rongo e
Hou mai rā
Tō karere
Mau tonu e


Tūturu whakamaua kia tina
TINA
Haumi e
Hui e
Tāiki e

The Kolors - Italodisco

 

 

Spoiler

Translation in English

 

To miss a penalty kick,
to play before Coldplay,
maybe yes maybe not.
At least you're always right.
How many questions would I ask you,
tell me yes, tell me no.
 
I have a tattoo to redo
because I don't like it anymore.
Sometimes I have anxiety creeping up on me.
(Creeping up on me...)
The thing that pisses me off
is when you don't talk to me anymore,
and the world looks all the same.
(All the same...)
I trust you more than myself,
than my parents, than the DJs.
 
Hurry, I can't resist,
Italodisco, sorry if I insist
but tonight
what I prefer
is an obsession,
an unexpected occasion to make love.
 
This is not Ibiza,
Festivalbar with a straight speaker.
I'm looking for you but it's thick fog.
I swear if I think of you my head rings,
it plays Italodisco.
 
I'm distracted and you're serious,
everyone lost in their thoughts,
maybe yes maybe not.
I hear the bass of Righeira,
if I go towards your eyes.
 
The thing that pisses me off
is when you no longer answer
and sometimes I have anxiety creeping up on me.
(Creeping up on me...)
I trust you more than myself,
than my parents, than the DJs.
 
Hurry, I can't resist,
Italodisco, sorry if I insist
but tonight
what I prefer
is an obsession,
an unexpected occasion to make love.
 
This is not Ibiza,
Festivalbar with a straight speaker.
I'm looking for you but it's thick fog.
I swear if I think of you my head rings,
it plays Italodisco.
 
(Disco, it plays Italodisco...)
(Disco, it plays It...)
 
I would like to explain to you how much I miss Moroder in my soul.
The speaker starts to play and yet I'm silent, Italodisco.
 
This is not Ibiza,
Festivalbar with a straight speaker.
I'm looking for you but it's thick fog.
I swear if I think of you my head rings,
it plays Italodisco.
It plays Italodisco.
 

Notes:
Festivalbar was an Italian singing competition that took place in the most important Italian squares during the summer between 1964 and 2007.

Righeira  were an Italian duo famous during the 1980's.

Moroder (Giorgio)  is an Italian composer and music producer.

Just to make sure, there is no loophole that allows a song released on 30 December 2022, right?

 

I just came to the realization that one of my very favourite songs is from a Dutch artist, of which I had no idea, but is released literally 2 days before the cut-off date :( 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!
