Umberto Tozzi

"Gloria"

(1979 - Written by Umberto Tozzi & Giancarlo Bigazzi)

 

 

 

English translation:

Spoiler

Gloria
There's lack of you in the air
You are missing from an hand
That works slowly
You are missing from this mouth
That doesn't touch food anymore
And always this story
That I call Gloria
Gloria on your hips
In the morning the sun rises
Hate comes in and love comes out
And its name is Gloria

 

(R) Gloria
There's lack of you in the air
I need you as salt
I need you more than the sun
Melt down this snow
That smothers my chest
I'm waiting for you Gloria

 

(R1) Gloria, Gloria
Country Church, Gloria
Water in the desert, Gloria
I leave my heart open, Gloria
Runaway noiselessly
From work and from your bed
From steps of an altar
I'm waiting for you Gloria

 

Ah,ah, Gloria
For those who waiting the light of day
And instead of sleeping
They remind the time when
They dived in poppies
In a free land
For those who breathe the mist
For those who breathe anger
For me that I live without Gloria
With you naked on the couch
I make cardboard stars
Thinking of Gloria

 but the singer represent everything in the group , ok let's close this discuss 

i just hope people will vote for the songs they like not for the users /friends

 

  Reveal hidden contents

i'll never give few points to bestmen because he said this & that

 

 

I would say that in this case, the song is at least as much about Carlos Santana

The Raveonettes - That great love sound

 

 

Lyrics

 

Changing Your Strut When You Know I'm Behind You
Changing Your Ways Cause You Don't Know What To Do
I Only Wanna Tell You
How I Feel Inside
If Only You Could Listen
Try To Change Your Mind

So I Walk Right Up To You
And You Walk All Over Me
And I Ask You What You Want
And You Tell Me What You Need
Can't You Feel It All Come Down
Can't You Hear It All Around
At The Place Where Lost Is Found
That Great Love Sound

Talking To You Makes Me Wanna Shake And Shout
Touching You Makes Me Wanna Come Right Out
You Could Never Want Me
The Same Way I Want You
I'm Love Tornado Struck
I Don't Know What To Do

T'Pau - China In Your Hand

 

 

Lyrics

 

It was a theme she had
On a scheme he had
Told in a foreign land
To take life on earth
To the second birth
And the man was in command
It was a flight on the wings
Of a young girl's dreams
That flew too far away

Don't push too far your dreams are china in your hand
Don't wish too hard because they may come true
And you can't help them
You don't know what you might have set upon yourself
China in your hand

Come from greed
Never born of the seed
Took a life from a barren hand
Oh eyes wide
Like a child in the form of man
A prophecy for a fantasy
The curse of a vivid mind

Don't push too far your dreams are china in your hand
Don't wish too hard because they may come true
And you can't help them
You don't know what you might have set upon yourself
China in your hand
Whoa your hand
Your hand

Don't push too far your dreams are china in your hand
Don't wish too hard because they may come true
And you can't help them
You don't know what you might have set upon yourself
But you shouldn't push too hard no no

Don't push too far your dreams are china in your hand
Don't wish too hard because they may come true
and you can't help them
You don't know what you might have set upon yourself
Because they're only dreams
And you shouldn't push too hard no no

 PORTUGAL 

 

Ok so for the first time Portugal will send a non-Portuguese speaking song to a Totallympics Song Contest!!

It's a risky move as well, this is very different from the traditional portuguese songs that I've shown you before, and I admit this is a music genre that is not that popular as others, but the truth is that this is a big and very famous band here in my country, so I want to show them to everyone here!! 

 

Moonspell - Scorpion Flower

 

Spoiler

Lyrics

Curse the day, hail the night

Flower grown in the wild

In your empty heart

In the breast that feeds

Flower worn in the dark

 

Can I steal your mind for a while?

Can I stop your heart for a while?

Can I freeze your soul and your time?

Scorpion flower

Token of death

Ignite the skies with your eyes

And keep me away from your light

 

Surrender tears to your mortal act

Flower cursed be thy fruit

Of your courage last

Of your grand finale

Flower crushed in the ground

In your empty heart

In the breast that feeds

Flower worn in the dark

 

Can I steal your mind for a while?

Can I stop your heart for a while?

Can I freeze your soul and your time?

Scorpion flower

Token of death

Ignite the skies with your eyes

 

In your empty heart

In the breast that feeds

Flower worn in the dark

 

Can I steal your mind for a while?

Can I stop your heart for a while?

Can I freeze your soul and your time?

Scorpion flower

Token of death

Ignite the skies with your eyes
