I'm just a wandering on the face of this earth
Meeting so many people
Who are trying to be free
And while I'm traveling I hear so many words
Language barriers broken
Now we've found the key
And if you want the wind of change
To blow about you
And you're the only other person to know, don't tell me
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band.
A thousand pictures can be drawn from one word
Only who is the artist
We got to agree
A thousand miles can lead so many ways
Just to know who is driving
What a help it would be
So if you want this world of yours
To turn about you
And you can see exactly what to do
Please tell me
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band.
How can we understand
Riots by the people for the people
Who are only destroying themselves
And when you see a frightened
Person who is frightened by the
People who are scorching this earth.
I'm just a wandering on the face of this earth
Meeting so many people
Who are trying to be free
And while I'm traveling I hear so many words
Language barriers broken
Now we've found the key
And if you want the wind of change
To blow about you
And you're the only other person to know, don't tell me
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band.
How can we understand
Riots by the people for the people
Who are only destroying themselves
And when you see a frightened
Person who is frightened by the
People who are scorching this earth.
Music is the traveller crossing our world
Meeting so many people bridging the seas
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band.
We're just the singers in a rock and roll band.
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band...
The lyrics I'M JUST A SINGER (IN A ROCK AND ROLL BAND) of MOODY BLUES is also present in the album Icon (2011)
I Moody Blues sono stati un gruppo rock, originario di Birmingham nel Regno Unito, fondato nel 1964 e attivo sino al 2018. Sulla fortunata onda beat generata da gruppi come i Beatles, Rolling Stones e The Who, anche i Moody Blues fecero parte della cosiddetta British invasion, ponendo inizialmente le loro radici nel rhythm and blues per poi giungere successivamente al rock psichedelico e a quello progressivo, grazie ad un sound caratterizzato dall'uso del mellotron. Questo fu il marchio di fabbrica della band nel periodo che va dal 1967 al 1974. Rispetto ad altri gruppi definiti progressivi, i Moody Blues prediligono una forma "canzone" con melodie ad ampio respiro. Esempio calzante è il loro più grande successo Nights in White Satin del 1967. Al 2018, anno del ritiro del batterista Graeme Edge, sono stati una delle rock band più longeve della storia, con oltre 55 anni di attività live e tra i 70 e gli 80 milioni di dischi venduti. Nel 2018 sono stati introdotti nella Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Con la morte di Graeme Edge, avvenuta l'11 novembre 2021, il gruppo, di fatto inattivo sin dal 2018, venne dichiarato definitivamente sciolto.

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.
