(Clarke)
The sun is overshadowed by the presence of the moon
Night time has fallen she'll be comin' home soon
Leave the door wide open, ah, so she won't need a key
Lock it behind you baby draw the blinds so no-one can see
There's only one thing on my mind
Don't let don't let me down
Don't let don't let me down
My feelings are near the ground
Silence is golden, ah, for me there's just one choice
The music of your laughter, rippling of your voice
The freshness of the evergreen, ah, fades as if too shy
Can't compete with your beauty, couldn't if it tried
There's only one thing on my mind
Don't let, don't let me down
Don't let, don't let me down
My feelings are near the ground
Let's build something to climb on
Making the show a live one
No need for make-up let's be real
Give all in what your giving
Making life worth living
Being alive's how you should feel
Oh and don't let, don't let me down
My feelings are near the ground
Don't want the sun to be shining
Raising his eyebrows at the moon
Saying I told you so she wouldn't show
Well don't speak too soon
I hear her footsteps walking on the outer floor
Well it could be, I don't know, I don't know for sure
There's only one thing on my mind
Don't let, don't let me down
Don't let, don't let me down
My feelings are near the ground
Come on back, can't live without you
Come on back, (I need you, I need you, I) can't live without you
Come on back, (I want you, I want you, I)can't live without you
Come on back, (C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, I) can't live without you
Come on back, (I love you, I love you, I) can't live without you
Come on back, (I need you, I need you, I) can't live without you
Named not, as is popularly thought, after Buddy Holly, but after the Christmas 1962 holly decorating the house of founding member Graham Nash (later to find even greater fame with Crosby, Stills, and Young) the Hollies were nothing if not adaptable. The grinning beat pop and "pap-pap-she-waddy-wops" of "Stay" through to the folky overtures of "I've Got a Way of My Own" (like an estrogen-free version of the Mamas and the Papas) were obviously marvelous and yet entirely generic responses to the overriding cultural dominance of the Beatles and Bob Dylan (the latter of whose songs the band devoted an entire album to in 1968, Hollies Sing Dylan, precipitating Graham Nash's departure). But much the same thing can be said for the majority of their peers. Still, the 1960s were a golden age for the Hollies, and to hear the Graham Gouldman-penned "Bus Stop", "Carrie Anne" (part Kinks, part Beach Boys, part calypso) or the sweet-shop bubblegum of "Jennifer Eccles" is to be reacquainted with a sunny lost world of short skirts, Mini Coopers, and policemen on bicycles. Even the kneejerk cod-psychedelia of "King Midas in Reverse"--a full-on trumpets-blaring, cello-charging microcosm of Revolver and Sgt. Pepper-isms--deserves revisionist plaudits. The Hollies experienced a bit of a renaissance in the early '70s, with tracks like "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother," the CCR-esque "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress," and "The Air That I Breathe," and beat Manfred Mann to the Springsteen-covering punch with their version of "Sandy," but have largely been strangers to the charts since. Yet the group soldiers on, though with the departure of Allan Clarke in 2000, there are no remaining founding members (Tony Hicks and Bobby Elliott have, however, both been Hollies since 1963).
Lana Del Rey nei guai: i Radiohead la accusano plagio. La sua "Get Free", contenuta nell'ultimo album "Lust For Life", sarebbe molto simile, se non identica, alla più celebre "Creep".
Per la data zero del suo tour "Residui di rock'nroll" a Fontaneto D'agogna, Grignani decide di cantare e la prima ora di live fila anche abbastanza bene. Poi qualcosa va storto, lui si incazza, minaccia di chiuderla li, il pubblico lo acclama e finisce a cappella.

Lo scorso 12 marzo il trapper Jordan Jeffrey Baby, nome d'arte di Jordan Tinti, è stato trovato impiccato nella sua cella del carcere di Pavia. La tesi del suicidio non è più così solida.

La musica e lo sport vivono un rapporto simbiotico e sappiamo quanto le canzoni siano importanti per uno sportivo, che in esse può trovare la motivazione, l'adrenalina, la concentrazione oppure il divertimento. E allora ci siamo chiesti: qual è la colonna sonora del mondo del calcio? Cosa ascoltano i giocatori?
