Un’altra di quelle canzoni che quando mi si attaccano ai polpacci non mi mollano fino a che non le metto qui. Questa volta è Is This Love della ex Yazoo Alison Moyet, me la ritrovo dovunque: su blip.fm, in radio, al bar mentre bevo il caffè…

Alison Moyet ha scritto Is This Love insieme a David A. Stewart, musicista del duo degli Eurythmics ed ex marito della cantante Annie Lennox (è passato da lei a Siobhan Fahey, una ex Bananarama).

Il testo di Is This Love

In a fleeting moment of a restless day
Driven to distraction, I was captured by the game
I have often wondered why I ever wanted to
Leave these scattered hours behind m
And speed myself to you
I choose never to forget
I want our lips to kiss and our limbs to entwine
Let our bodies be twisted but never our minds

Is this Love?
Set to work idle hands make these thoughts
Had I planned them they never would be teasing me
As viciously as these

I would not have believed you, had I never seen
Now you and I are intimately pictured in my dreams
I could not forsake you for tumbling away
And If I live in wonderland I’m better off this way

I choose never to forget
I want our lips to kiss and our limbs to entwine
Let our bodies be twisted but never our minds

Is this Love?
Set to work idle hands make these thoughts
Had I planned them they never would be teasing me
As viciously as these
