Paths That Cross - Patti Smith

Speak to me 

Speak to me heart 
I feel a needing 
To bridge the clouds 
Softly go 
A way I wish to know 
A way I wish to know 

Oh you'll ride 
Surely dance 
In a ring 
Backwards and forwards 
Those who seek 
Feel the glow 
A glow we will all know 
A glow we will all know 

On that day 
Filled with grace 
And the heart's communion 
Steps we take 
Steps we trace 
Into the light of reunion 

Paths that cross 
Will cross again 
Paths that cross 
Will cross again 

Speak to me 
Speak to me shadow 
I spin from the wheel 
Nothing at all 
Save the need 
The need to weave 
A silk of souls 
That whisper whisper 
A silk of souls 
That whispers to me 

Speak to me heart 
All things renew 
Hearts will mend 
Round the bend 
Paths that cross 
Cross again 
Paths that cross 
Will cross again 

Paths That Cross

Patti Smith - Festival di Sanremo 2012

Earth Day 2011 - Roma concert

The 20th of april there was a beautiful concert here in Roma (Galoppatoio di Villa Borghese), celebrating the Earth Day.
It started with some italian artists, amongst them I liked Roberto Angelini.
While we was waiting for the wonderful Patti Smith, a nice surprise: a videomessage from Peter Gabriel!



I was very happy :-)

When Patti Smith arrived, it was great. She is a living legend! And she sang some from her most known songs, with a great energy:

Ghost dance



Pissing in a river



Wing



Because the night



People have the power



Then Carmen Consoli, that I love very much, with several musicians and a string quartet. So many beautiful songs! All started with a deep sound: the simulation of an atomic bomb explosion about 80 km from here.
Then a song: Eco di Sirene



L'Ultimo Bacio



Then Madre Terra, a 'virtual' duet with Angelique Kidjo in video, it was very moving to me.



I remember also Fiori d'Arancio, and a song in sicilian dialect.
Carmen was very funny and deep at the same time.

Other songs:
In Bianco e Nero, Guarda l'Alba, AAA Cercasi



Venere



Mio zio



Amore di Plastica




A very beautiful concert! Great!!!
