UK CDS "Here And Now"
It's been a long way down
From what I was then to what I'm now
I was up there and baby you were proud
Yeah, it's been a long way down
It's been a slow road back
To having nothing again, from having that
You were mine babe, and we were right on track
Yeah, it's been a slow road back
It's been a long way down
I was high, but you were right about how
The higher you get on love
The longer it takes to forget and get out of
It's been a hard trail home
We went somewhere I've never known
From living it up Babe, to waking up alone
It's been a hard trail home
It's been a long way down
I was high, but you were right about how
The longer the dream goes on
The harder the fall will seem when it has gone
It's been a long way down
We had everything heaven would allow
From the dizzy heights to the life I'm living now
It's been a long way down

Del Amitri è una rock band scozzese formatasi a Glasgow nel 1980. Il gruppo nasce dall'idea di Justin Currie, che dopo aver suonato in una band scolastica, pubblica un annuncio in un negozio di musica per trovare musicisti con cui formare un nuovo progetto. La formazione iniziale vede la presenza di Currie (basso e voce), Iain Harvie (chitarra solista), Bryan Tolland (chitarra) e Paul Tyagi (batteria). Currie e Harvie sono gli unici membri rimasti ininterrottamente nel corso della storia del gruppo, nonché i principali autori dei brani. Del Amitri ha raggiunto il successo negli anni '90 con album come "Change the World" e "Twisted", caratterizzati da melodie pop-rock orecchiabili e testi introspettivi. Tra le canzoni più famose ci sono "Always the Last to Know", "The Rest of the Day" e "Someday Soon".

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.
