Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond

YouTube - Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the cross fire of childhood and stardom,
blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter, come on you stranger,
you legend, you martyr, and shine!

You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Treatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions, come on you painter,
you piper, you prisoner, and shine!


La canzone è del '75, apre e chiude uno degli album più "impegnati" della storia, e dal punto di vista dei testi e della musica stessa. Impegnativo anche l'ascolto...ma ogni umore vuole melodie differenti.
