Quand les cons sont braves
michealt (Tom Thomson) (L. Trans.)
Sarà forse banale, ma nelle possibili vicinanze di un conflitto armato, quale quello attuale tra Russia e Ucraina, almeno al sottoscritto viene subito a mente questa canzone -dati anche gli scenari da guerra mondiale che si prospettano, da non prendere sottogamba. Da dire, casomai, che rimango non del tutto d'accordo con la canzone laddove si afferma che i “bravi coglioni” come me, come te, come noi e come voi siano fondamentalmente innocui, e che la cosa non sia grave. E' giustappunto anche grazie ai bravi coglioni come noialtri, pecoroni quant'altri mai e generalmente pendenti dalle labbra dei potenti di turno, che detti capi di stato malati di mente hanno sempre proliferato e prosperato, e continuano a farlo. Con tutte le logiche conseguenze. Detto questo, sto (per ora invano) cercando una traduzione o versione russa di questa canzone; per ora ne ho trovata una inglese, che va a affiancarsi alle altre presenti in questa antica pagina.

Sabiá
Lady Day / Songs Of The Sabiá (1970)
In 1969, Frank Sinatra and Jobim recorded "The Song of the Sabiá" for an album entitled Sinatra-Jobim, but at the last minute, Sinatra stopped release of the record. Seven of the ten songs from those sessions were released in 1971 as Side A of Sinatra & Company, but "The Song of the Sabiá" was not used. It appeared as the B-side of Sinatra's single “Lady Day” (Reprise 0970) in December 1970, and was later included on Portrait of Sinatra – Forty Songs from the Life of a Man (1977), Sinatra–Jobim Sessions (1979) and Sinatra/Jobim: The Complete Reprise Recordings (2010).

Joy Division took their name from the novel "The House Of Dolls" by Jewish author Ka-Tzetnik 135633 (real name Yehiel Feiner, or Yehiel De-Nur), an Auschwitz survivor (his pen name means "Concentration Camper", and 135633 was his number). He wrote about the horrors committed by the nazis. "The House Of Dolls" is about Joy Division - Jewish women in concentration camps who were made into sex slaves for the pleasure of Nazi soldiers. He claimed it was inspired by the fate of his younger sister who did not survive the Holocaust.
The spoken part from 'No Love Lost' is taken directly from the book.

Chcemy być sobą
"The song was recorded in 1981, during the dark years of the communist rule, just before the introduction of martial law in Poland on the 13th December 1981 (see more here: Martial law in Poland - Wikipedia). This song was one of the most important protest songs all through the 1980s; it's worth noting that, at concerts, the title phrase "Chcemy być sobą" ("We want to be ourselves") was often changed into "Chcemy bić ZOMO" ("We want to beat up ZOMO" - see here for the explanation on ZOMO)

Title Track del nuovo album della cantante di "r'n'b psichedelico" Greentea Peng, una delle migliori protagoniste della scena londinese contemporanea
This is probably the most overtly political tune, but to me it’s more spiritual. You can take the song literally, but also metaphorically: how these man-made seeds are being planted in society and in the collective. Materialism, consumerism, individualism—it’s only once you’re able to shed these accessories that you actually start remembering what it is to be human.
Greentea Peng via Apple Music
Questa è probabilmente la traccia più apertamente politica, ma per me è più spirituale. Puoi prendere la canzone alla lettera, ma anche metaforicamente: come questi semi artificiali vengono piantati nella società e nel collettivo. Materialismo, consumismo, individualismo: è solo una volta che sei in grado di liberarti di questi accessori che inizi effettivamente a ricordare cosa significa essere umani.

King Charles is often viewed as a tyrant due to his belief that he could govern according to his own conscience and no other sources. Many of his subjects disagreed with his policies, particularly his levying of taxes without consent from parliament.
