January songs 1^ parte/2^ parte

Tori Amos
Indice generale/General index

I' doto voi del mese di gennaio
corte con fuochi di salette accese,
camere e letta d'ogni bello arnese,
lenzuol di seta e copertoi di vaio,
treggea, confetti e mescere a razzaio,
vestiti di doagio e di racese;
e 'n questo modo stare alle difese,
muova scirocco, garbino e rovaio;
uscir di fuor alcuna volta il giorno,
gittando della neve bella e bianca
alle donzelle che saran d'attorno;
e, quando la compagna fosse stanca,
a questa corte facciasi ritorno,
e sí riposi la brigata franca.

Like a rolling stone - Covers 1965-2009 1^ parte/2^ parte/3^ parte


Nonostante il parere della rivista Rolling Stone che, nel 2004, la elesse miglior canzone di tutti i tempi, continuo a credere che Like a rolling stone, uscita nel Giugno 1965, sia una delle più belle composizioni mai prodotte dalla nuova musica nel dopoguerra.
Scritto in un momento di sconforto, il brano ha la felicità di tutti i capolavori, a partire dall'ambiguità testuale: dobbiamo considerarla, infatti, come una, pur parziale, confessione autobiografica o un riferimento ad una figura storica ben precisa della vita di Robert Allen Zimmerman?
Il primo caso è più probabile; Dylan aveva, dal Marzo precedente, abiurato lo stile folk, subito le prime contestazioni e censure e, non ultimo, interpretato per la BBC Madhouse on Castle Street in cui era un chitarrista vagabondo ("a rolling stone"). Il tono aspro e tagliente usato allora nei rapporti con la stampa (e che dura ancor adesso) ricorda le invettive della canzone, forse una sincera presa d'atto del proprio innato individualismo e l'abbandono dell'impegno (derivatogli da Guthrie), ormai sentito quale costume inautentico, costituito dalle aspettative dell'ammirazione crescente.
La soluzione alternativa, più lineare, è quella che vede Dylan riferirsi alla vita di Edie Sedgwick (1943-1971), amante del cantautore, modella alla corte di Andy Warhol, fragile personaggio stritolato dall'anoressia, dai farmaci, dalla vita metropolitana ("Miss Lonely").

Once upon a time you dressed so fine 
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you? 
People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall" 
You thought they were all kiddin' you 
You used to laugh about 
Everybody that was hangin' out 
Now you don't talk so loud 
Now you don't seem so proud 
About having to be scrounging for your next meal. 
How does it feel 
How does it feel 
To be without a home 
Like a complete unknown 
Like a rolling stone? 
You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely 
But you know you only used to get juiced in it 
And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street 
And now you find out you're gonna have to get used to it 
You said you'd never compromise 
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize 
He's not selling any alibis 
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes 
And ask him do you want to make a deal? 
How does it feel 
How does it feel 
To be on your own 
With no direction home 
Like a complete unknown 
Like a rolling stone? 
You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns
When they all come down and did tricks for you 
You never understood that it ain't no good 
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you 
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat 
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat 
Ain't it hard when you discover that 
He really wasn't where it's at 
After he took from you everything he could steal. 
How does it feel 
How does it feel 
To be on your own 
With no direction home 
Like a complete unknown 
Like a rolling stone? 
Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people 
They're drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made 
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things 
But you'd better lift your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe 
You used to be so amused 
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used 
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse 
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose 
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal. 
How does it feel 
How does it feel 
To be on your own 
With no direction home 
Like a complete unknown 
Like a rolling stone?
