Fango di Jovanotti versione in Inglese, completa! SPARGETE LA VOCE.
Im not alone even when Im alone
I know Im not alone.
Im not alone even when Im alone
Under skies of stars and satellites,
Between the victims the guilty and the parasites.
A dog barks at the moon
A man looks at his hand it reminds him of his dad
The way they played in the sand.
When he picked him up like nothing and he lifted him up,
The view was awesome from up on top.
He rushed towards things without a second thought
His hand was tiny but it held the whole world.
Now the city is a foreign flick without captions,
The roads we walk on theyre slippery slopes.
Sliding along things covered in ice
The TV says stuff out theres not nice.
But the only thing that really frightens you dear,
Is losing the skill to feel and fear:
The smell of flowers
The scent of the city
Sound of a bike
The taste of pizza
The tears of a mother
A students ideas
Meeting your love out in a square.
Standing pointing towards the sky
You know being alone is a lie
Cause Im not alone even when Im alone
I know Im not alone.
Im not alone even when Im alone
Melding with the sky and the stone.
Cause Im not alone even when Im alone
I know Im not alone.
And I laugh and I cry,
Becoming one with the mud and the sky.
The city is a foreign flick without captions,
A fire boiling over conversations.
Hows it hanging?
Whats it costing?
Whats the time?
Where you going?
What they saying?
Whos believing?
I guess Ill be seeing.
You feel alone, abandoned, targeted and fake,
Becoming isolated when you make a mistake.
A 20 foot billboard tells you Make the most of Now!
But youve grown up fast and can not even say WOW!
A world ripped apart, just held together by those,
Who still have the strength to love and hope,
And a music pumping blood through my veins,
That makes me wanna get up and say:
All you people stop complaining,
Cause the only danger is truly one thing,
The fear of no longer feeling anything,
The fear of feeling nothing.
The sound of your heart beating,
The passion and love your feeling.
The hunger the thirst, the evolution in act,
The energy released in a contact.
Cause Im not alone even when Im alone
I know Im not alone.
Im not alone even when Im alone
Melding with the sky and the stone.
Cause Im not alone even when Im alone
I know Im not alone.
And I laugh and I cry,
Becoming one with the mud and the sky.

′Being ethical is worth it′ | News | DW.DE | 25.04.2015
When asked about his good relationship with Germany, the former Auschwitz prisoner said: “If someone had told me in 1941, while I was standing on the parade ground in Auschwitz, that I would have German friends one day, I would have called him mad.” But several decades later, Bartoszewski was considered in Germany as one of the people who had worked hardest for this friendship.
As if by miracle, Wladyslaw Bartoszewski survived Auschwitz, then joined the underground Polish Home Army, fought in the Warsaw Uprising and helped to rescue thousands of Jews. After the war, he worked as a freelance journalist and was frequently arrested by the communists. He supported the Catholic opposition and the trade union movement Solidarność. After 1989, he was twice made foreign minister. Despite his advanced age, he was active right to the end, most recently as an adviser to Prime Minister Ewa Kopacz and government coordinator for German-Polish relations.

▶ Buffy Sainte Marie – “I’m Going Home” – YouTube
Heaven isn’t so far away as people say
I got a home high in my heart
Heaven is right where I come from; I never throw it away
I know the place and I’m going home
I’m going home
I’m going home
See up there, it’s not the same
They know your name
And I’m not ashamed to need it I’m going home
I’m going home
I’m going home
You keep on knocking but
I’m not coming out of this state I’m in
I’m travellin’ right, I’m gonna get there soon
I’m standing up praying, I’m singing
Saying Heyo ha ha heyo ha hey ya
I know the way and I’m going home.
I’m going home
I’m going home
That’s where the heart can rest
The best is there
And only a fool would leave it. I’m going home
I’m going home
I’m going home
I’m going home
I been around, I been to town
Hey, where you think I learned right from wrong
And I’m going home
I’m going home

6 Things You Don’t Know About Björk | Dame Magazine
It’s a big year for Björk. Last month New York’s MoMA launched a retrospective of the Icelandic multi-hyphenate’s career, in June she will resume her Vulnicura world tour, and in November she turns 50. It seems like just yesterday we were ruing the breakup of her band, the Sugarcubes, and emulating her head of hair knots. We consider ourselves pretty well-versed in all things Björk, but here are a few tidbits even we were surprised to learn, not least of which is that we’ve been pronouncing her name incorrectly for more than two decades.
I Am Voting With My Vagina: Hillary Clinton For President | Dame Magazine
This is not an essay about how you should vote in the next presidential election.
I believe you should vote in a way that reflects your own personal blend of what you value and what you can stomach in a presidential candidate. If that comes down to registering your support for someone who has no real chance, writing in your ideal candidate, or even staying home on election day, I respect that. Your vote is yours, and you don’t owe anyone an explanation, let alone justification, of how you decide to use it.
Me, I intend to vote with my vagina. Unapologetically. Enthusiastically. (Metaphorically, for those concerned about ending up in line behind me.) And I intend to talk about it.

During the 2008 Democratic primaries, I supported Hillary Clinton over Barack Obama for two main reasons:
She was older, which mattered to me a small amount in terms of experience, and a large amount in terms of the difference eight years would make. President Obama is younger than two of my siblings. If he ran today, at 53, he’d still be younger than most of his opponents. Hillary Clinton is now 67—in apparently great health, and willing to go through all this bullshit again, so more power to her! But now, in addition to the usual sexism coming her way, we’re about to endure 18 months of hearing what a shriveled old crone she is—and wouldn’t she be better off staying home and dandling wee Charlotte on her wrinkled knee? I was really hoping to avoid that.
She’s a woman, and President Obama is a man.
