Lo stiamo ascoltando in radio da qualche giorno, Stay the night, il nuovo singolo di James Blunt. Anticipa il nuovo album che avrà per titolo Some kind of trouble (te pareva), che esce il 9 novembre.

Tutto sommato è anche allegra come canzone, non fa venire voglia di attacarsi al gas come mediamente accade con le sue… Ohi, belle eh, per carità… ma funzionano più quando qualcuno ha appena preso una tranvata amorosa nei denti ed è in vena di autoflagellarsi.

Sono curioso di ascoltare il resto dell’album, secondo me un qualche brano in cui dice qualcosa tipo “era gnocca da panico ma mi ha spinto sotto un camion e mi sono spiaccicato come un riccio…” ci sarà di sicuro.

Il testo di Stay the night

It’s 72 degrees, zero chance of rain
It’s been a perfect day
We’re all spinning on our heels, so far away from real
In California
We watched the sunset from our car, we all took it in
And by the time that it was dark, you and me had something, yeah!

And if this is what we’ve got, then what we’ve got is gold
We’re shining bright and I want you, I want you to know
The morning’s on it’s way, our friends all say goodbye
There’s nowhere else to go, I hope that you’ll stay the night

We’ve been singing Billie Jean
Mixin’ vodka with caffeine
We’ve got strangers stopping by
And though you’re out of tune
Girl you blow my mind, you do
And I’ll say I don’t wanna say good night
There’s no quiet corner to get to know each other
And there’s no hurry I’m a patient man
Is your discover

Cause if this is what we’ve got, then what we’ve got is gold
We’re shining bright and I want you, I want you to know
The morning’s on it’s way, our friends all say goodbye
There’s nowhere else to go, I hope that you’ll stay the night

Just like the song on our radio set
We’ll share the shelter of my single bed
But it’s a different tune that’s stuck in my head
And it goes…

If this is what we’ve got, then what we’ve got is gold
We’re shining bright and I want you, I want you to know
The morning’s on it’s way, our friends all say goodbye
There’s nowhere else to go, I hope that you’ll stay the night
