(Robert Lamm)
Terry
Are you optimistic
'bout the way things are going?
Peter
No, I nver ever think of it at all
Terry
Don't you ever worry
When you see what's going down?
Peter
No, I try to mind my business,
that is, no business at all
Terry
When it's time to function
as a feeling human being, will your
Bachelor of Arts help you get by?
Peter
I hope to study further,
a few more years or so. I also hope
to keep a steady high
Terry
Will you try to change
things, use the power that you have,
the power of a million new ideas?
Peter
What is this power you
speak of and this need for things to
change? I always thought
that everything was fine
Terry
Don't you feel repression just
closing in around?
Peter
No, the campus here is very, very free
Terry
Does it make you angry
the way war is dragging on?
Peter
Well, I hope the President
knows what he's into, I don't know
Terry
Don't you ever see the starvation
in the city where you live, all the
needless hunger all the
needless pain?
Peter
I haven't been there lately,
the country is so fine, but my
neighbors don't seem hungry 'cause
they haven't got the time
Terry
Thank you for the talk,
you know you really eased my mind
I was troubled by the shapes
of things to come.
Peter
Well, if you had my
outlook your feelings would be
numb, you'd always think
that everything was fine
The lyrics DIALOGUE PART I of CHICAGO is also present in the album Chicago v (1972)
Chicago, originariamente conosciuti come Chicago Transit Authority, sono una delle band rock americane più longeve e di successo. In termini di vendite di album e singoli, solo i Beach Boys hanno superato i numeri di Chicago. Sebbene siano criticati da alcuni, Chicago è una band rock in grado di guardare in molte direzioni diverse - jazz, pop, disco, classica - senza mai perdere di vista l'hook. Fornati nel 1967 a Chicago, Illinois, la formazione originale comprendeva Peter Cetera (basso, voce), Robert Lamm (tastiere, voce), James Pankow (trombone), Danny Seraphine (batteria) e Terry Kath (chitarra, voce). Il loro primo album, pubblicato nel 1969, raggiunse il successo immediato grazie a brani come "25 or 6 to 4" e "Beginnings". Chicago ha continuato a produrre musica di successo per decenni, esplorando diversi generi musicali e collaborando con artisti di fama mondiale. Tra i loro album più importanti ricordiamo *Chicago V* (1972), *Chicago X* (1975) e *Chicago 17* (1982). Tra le canzoni più rappresentative del gruppo si possono citare "If You Leave Me Now", "Saturday in the Park" e "Hard to Say I'm Sorry".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
