Shipbuilding was Suede's contribution to the Help album in aid of
Warchild for
Bosnia. It is a cover of the Elvis Costello classic and not surprisingly
I think it is
an improvement on the original; although I am sure Elvis Costello fans
won't
agree with me.
Is it worth it, a new winters coat and shoes for the wife
And a bicycle on the boys birthday
It's just a rumour that was spread around town
By the woman and children, soon we'll be shipbuilding
Well I ask you, the boy said
"Dad there going to take me to task,
But I'll be back by Christmas"
It's just a rumour that was spread around town
Somebody said that someone got filled in
For saying that people get killed in the results of their shipbuilding
With all the will in the world,
Diving for dear life, when we could be diving for pearls
It's just a rumour that was spread around town
A telegram or a picture postcard
Within weeks we will be reopening the shipyard
And notifying the next of kin, once again
It's always killed in,
We will be shipbuilding
With all the will in the world,
Diving for dear life, when we could be diving for pearls
I Suede sono un gruppo musicale britannico di rock alternativo formatosi a Londra nel 1989. Considerati pionieri del movimento Britpop, hanno raggiunto il successo negli anni '90 con un sound caratterizzato da melodie orecchiabili, testi introspettivi e l'inconfondibile voce di Brett Anderson. Dopo una prima fase di grande popolarità seguita da un periodo di pausa, la band si è riunita nel 2010 per continuare a incidere musica e esibirsi dal vivo. Tra i loro album più importanti figurano "Suede" (1993), "Dog Man Star" (1994) e "Coming Up" (1996). Alcuni dei brani più rappresentativi del gruppo includono "Animal Nitrate", "The Beautiful Ones" e "Trash".

Do we want to define "I know you know me" a masterpiece? Yes, without a shadow of a doubt for at least two reasons. The first and most evident are the artists who interpret it: Caroline Spence and Matt Berninger, second for the deep and poetic text.
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.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
