(speciale): In the Mood For Love – Una compilation per San Valentino

Febbraio: mese dedicato a San Valentino, il santo patrono degli innamorati. Noi, di Coeurs & Choeurs siamo degli inguaribili romantici e adoriamo le canzoni d’amore, soprattutto le più struggenti e strappalacrime.

Per predisporre al meglio gli animi, il nostro e quello dei nostri lettori, al 14 febbraio, fieri del successo della nostra playlist natalizia, abbiamo pensato di replicare l’esperimento e eccoci qui, a proporvi il nostro best of delle canzoni più romantiche da dedicare al vostro/a partner.

Buon San Valentino a tutti/e !

1) Elvis Presley – Cant’Help Falling in Love (Blue Hawaii – RCA, 1961)

(Wise men say/ Only fools rush in/ But I can’t help falling in love with you / Shall I stay? / Would it be a sin? / If I can’t help falling in love with you)

2) James Blake – Love Me In Whatever Way ( The Colour in Anything – Polydor, 2016)

(Where you lead me I will go / Where the rose water passes and dry river flows /And if that’s the way this year / Guess the thorns are on and the bloom I always fear/ Tell me where I have to go / And then love me there/ Tell me when I have to go/ And then love me there)

3) Your Love is King – Sade (Diamond Life – Sony, 1984)

(Your love is king, crown you in my heart/ Your love is king, you’re the ruler of my heart
Your kisses ring, round and round and round my head / Touching the very part of me, it’s making my soul sing/ I’m crying out for more, your love is king)

4) All I want is You – U2 (Rattle and Hum – Universal/Island Records, 1988)

(You say you want / Diamonds on a ring of gold / You say you want / Your story to remain untold/ But all the promises we make / From the cradle to the grave /When all I want is you)

5) The Winner Takes it All – Abba (Super Trouper – Polar Music, 1980)

(I was in your arms/ Thinking I belonged there/ I figured it made sense
Building me a fence / Building me a home / Thinking I’d be strong there
But I was a fool / Playing by the rules)

6) How Deep is Your Love – Bee Gees (Saturday Night Fever: OST – RSO Records)

(I know your eyes in the morning sun / I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me / I want to feel you in my arms again
And you come to me on a summer breeze/ Keep me warm in your love, then you softly leave / And it’s me you need to show / How deep is your love, how deep is your love
How deep is your love?)

7) Paolo Conte – Via con me (Paris Milonga – Sony, 1981)

(Via via / Vieni via con me / Entra in questo amore buio / Non perderti per niente al mondo / Via via / Non perderti per niente al mondo / Lo spettacolo d’arte varia
Di uno innamorato di te)

8) Love is Love – Culture Club (Waking Up with the House on Fire – Virgin, 1984)

(You don’t have to touch it to know/ Love is everywhere you go /You don’t have to touch it to feel /Love is every second we steal /Love is love is nothing without you/Love is love is everything you do /Open up your eyes/ And you will see/ Love is love is everything to me)

9) Arcade Fire – My Heart is An Apple (Arcade Fire, EP -Sony, 2005)

(I’ll admit I’m full of shit/ That’s how I know I love you/ That’s how I know I trust you
You’re not sure if there’s a right or wrong/ But it feels like there is when I treat you like this / I go outside / I go outside /…/ My mouth is full, your heart is an apple/ My mouth is full, your heart is an apple /Pomme-pomme-pomme-pomme /Pomme-pomme-pomme-pomme)

10) Radiohead – Daydreaming ( A moon shaped pool- XL Recordings, 2016)

(Dreamers / They never learn / They never learn / Beyond, beyond the point / Of no return / Of no return / And it’s too late / The damage is done / The damage is done
This goes / Beyond me /Beyond you)

11) Interpol – The New (Turn On the Bright Lights – Matador, 2002)

(Baby, my heart’s been breaking / I gave a lot to you / I take a lot from you too / You slave a lot from me/ Guess you could say / I gave you my edge)

12) Nina Simone – Wild is the Wind (Wild is the Wind, Verve Music Group, 1966)

(Love me, love me, love me, say you do / Let me fly away with you/ For my love is like the wind / And wild is the wind)

13) Cole Porter – What is This Thing Called Love, 1929 ( Billie Holiday – Blue Moon – BMG, 1952)

(What is this thing called love / This funny thing / Called love / Just who can solve its mystery / Why should it make /A fool of me? )

14) Osvaldo Farrés – Quizàs, Quizàs, Quizàs, 1947 (Nat King Cole – Cole Español, Capitol Records, 1958)

(Siempre que te pregunto / Que cuándo, cómo y dónde / Tu siempre me respondes / Quizás, quizás, quizás / Y así pasan los días / Y yo desesperando / Y tu, tu contestando
Quizás, quizás, quizás)

15) Jacques Brel – Ne me quitte pas (La valse à mille temps- Barclay, 1959)

(Moi je t’offrirai / Des perles de pluie / Venues de pays où il ne pleut pas / Je creuserai la terre jusqu’après ma mort / Pour couvrir ton corps d’or et de lumière / Je ferai un domaine / Où l’amour sera roi, où l’amour sera loi / Où tu seras reine / Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas / Ne me quitte pas /Ne me quitte pas)
