Black Pumas


(2019)
dal primo album eponimo della band di soul psichedelico texana.

Le canzoni più belle contro la guerra sono sempre quelle che non parlano di guerra, ma parlano di vita e celebrano la diversità e la fratellanza tra esseri umani. E questa famosissima canzone dei Black Pumas rientra sicuramente in questa categoria.

Adrian Quesada e Eric Burton dei Black Pumas. Diverso colore della pelle ma stessa attitudine soul
Adrian Quesada e Eric Burton dei Black Pumas. Diverso colore della pelle ma stessa attitudine soul


I colori di cui parla la canzone possono riferirsi al colore della pelle di tutte le sorelle e i fratelli di una sola razza, quella umana, ma possono anche rappresentare la riconquistata gioia di vivere. una volta scrollate di dosso le foglie secche di un momento di crisi o di depressione. In ogni caso una grande canzone di pace, di tolleranza e un inno alla vita.
I woke up to the morning sky first
Baby blue, just like we rehearsed
When I get up off this ground, I shake leaves back down
To the brown, brown, brown, brown 'til I’m clean

Then I walked where I'd be shaded by the trees
By a meadow of green
For about a mile
I'm headed to town, town, town in style

With all my favorite colors, yes, sir
All my favorite colors, right on
My sisters and my brothers see ’em like no other
All my favorite colors

It's a good day to be, a good day for me
A good day to see my favorite colors, colors
My sisters and my brothers, they see 'em like no other
All my favorite colors

Now take me to the other side
Little bitty blues birds fly
In gray clouds, or white walls, or blue skies
We gon' fly, feel alright
And we gon', ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, yeah
They sound like ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, yeah
And the least I can say, I anticipate
A homecome parade as we renegade in the morning, right on

With all my favorite colors, yes, sir
All my favorite colors, yes, ma'am
My sisters and my brothers see 'em like no other
All my favorite colors
Ha, oh

Closer, ooh
Love machine

All my favorite colors, right
All my favorite colors, yes, ma'am
My sisters and my brothers see ’em like no other
All my favorite colors

It’s a good day to be, a good day for me
A good day to see my favorite colors, colors
My sisters and my brothers, they see 'em like no other
All my favorite colors
