Nice song with beautiful arrangements, although Japanese language (as well as any of Asians) always sounded very specific for me, notably in music...7/10.
I don't usually listen to Lara Fabian, but here I have to admit this song is sung in an heartfelt way, and with really beautiful voice... also, music in the background really fits the intention and the melody... So, it's a really good and powerful ballad 7,5/10
and now... an old italian classic... I think it's from 1979...
uhm... I guess it can be translated as "splendid glittering" ^_^
Pleasant Italian dance-pop. This sort of music was very popular in USSR, I remember my mom's vinyls: Toto Cutugno, Pupo, Al Bano & Romina Power, Gianni Morandi... Partly, it was music of my childhood. 7.5/10.
@Hydrazoic AcidOh! Adriano! He's very old now, but still a legend.
It's a recent new that he and Mina are about to do an album together.
This would be the second one they do together. The first one, many years ago, sold over a million copies... that in Italy is a huge number, if you consider that a diamond album is certified at 500.000 copies sold, here.
Anyway, I know that many italian artists of those years were famous in Russia. And it really makes me happy. 'Cause they created many "classics". Anyway, truth to be said, many of those artists are now less famous and important... and their recent repertoire is obsolete and impoverished. Some of them, like Mina, Adriano Celentano, Patty Pravo and Gianni Morandi are still relevant, though! (and they're all over 70 years old XD)
This said... what to say about Adriano's "Susanna"?
A good and very entertaining song. 7/10
And now let's go to Bosnia-Herzegovina... these are Hari Mata Hari and Anja Ruper, who sing this song in what I think to be serbo-croatian
It seems that I will be posting songs with political meaning for a while
Accordion
In my old neighbourhood I had a friend
who knew and played the accordion
when he sang, he was like the sun
fires in his hands were ignited by the accordion
But at one dark night, like every other night
he kept look-outs, playing the accordion
german trucks stood next to the gate
and a gunfire stopped the accordion
The already started watchword always comes back to me
whenever I hear again an accordion
and it has, like a stamp, marked my life
'fascism will not prevail!'
well, this is not only pleasant to listen to, but also historically interesting. 7/10
now, next song is in hebrew and it's from a soundtrack of an italian film (Jona che visse nella balena/ Jonah who lived in the whale)... it's been composed by Ennio Morricone
interesting lyrics, well sung, good voice... minimal and practical guitar... Good song... I really didn't know that Greece had such tradition of songwriting... 7/10
now, I'm taking y'all to Iceland. This girl's Myrra Ros... and this song is sung in icelandic.
