La canzone del giorno: The Strokes - Machu Picchu

La canzone del giorno s'intitola "Machu Picchu" degli Strokes. 
La band newyorchese è arrivata quest'anno a pubblicare il suo quarto album, "Angles". 
Il quintetto, guidato dal leader Julian Casablancas, spazia dall'indie rock, al post punk revival, al garage rock. 
Ma veniamo al brano del giorno: sicuramente un pezzo non da Strokes, ma non per questo al di sotto dei loro standard. Anzi è la dimostrazione che il gruppo ha saputo mettersi in discussione
cercando di presentarci qualcosa di nuovo, forse anche per loro. 
Per me resta una delle migliori canzoni degli Strokes. Buon ascolto...



Machu Picchu, 2011


Testo canzone: The Strokes - Machu Picchu

I'm putting your patience to the test
I'm putting your body on the line, for less
And didn't you know there was a choice?
It's never yours but someone elses voice
Slippin' your body through the street 
I'm sending your girlfriends to the night, for cheat
Wearing a jacket, made of meat. Sending a letter waved with walls so sweet
And now you've heard that
Waves turn to grey
Life in the shade
A violent cloud
And that's on USA. Bad moon's on the rise
Window's in the sky
I'm just trying' to find
A mountain I can climb
I'm putting your patience to the test
I'm putting your body on the line, for less
And didn't you know there was a choice? 
It's never yours but someone elses voice
And now you've seen that
Waltz on the grey
Life in the shade. A violent cloud, And that's on USA
Born on the rise. Circles in the skies
I'm just tryin' to find 
A mountain I can climb
Tell us, are you gonna tell us? 
Why do we feel so jealous? 
Why do we feel so silent? 
Why is it always silent? 
(I didn't want to ask you baby, I didn't want you to suffer , and everybody is singing .... ) 
Why are you waiting? 
By the door 
Life turns to dust, And waiting turns to rust
Gossip is a truth. A little bit for the lie you took 
And why do you look surprised? 
Ever since I'm in the skies
I'm just tryin' to find 
A space for you and I
