(O'Connor)
I wanna make
Something beautiful
For you and from you
To show you
To show you
I adore you
Oh you
And your journey
Toward me
Which I see
And I see
All you push through
Mad for you
And because of you
I couldn't thank you in ten thousand years
If I cried ten thousand rivers of tears
Ah but you know the soul
And you know what makes it gold
You who give life through blood
Blood, blood, blood...
Oh I wanna make something
So lovely for you
'Cause I promised that's what i'd do for you
With the bible I stole
I know you forgave my soul
Because such was my need
On a chronic christmas eve
And I think we're agreed that it
Should have been free
And you sang to me
They dress the wounds of my poor people
As though they're nothing
Saying "peace"
When there's no peace
They dress the wounds of my poor people
As though they're nothing
Saying "peace"
When there's no peace
Days without number
Days without number
Now can a bride forget her jewels
Or a maid her ornaments
Yet my people forgotten me
Days without number
Days without number
And in their want
Oh in there want
And in their want
Who'll dress their wounds
Who'll dress their wounds
The lyrics SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL of SINEAD O'CONNOR is also present in the album Theology (2007)
Sinéad Marie Bernadette O'Connor (Dublino, 8 dicembre 1966 – Londra, 26 luglio 2023) è stata una cantautrice irlandese di fama internazionale. Conosciuta per la sua voce potente e il suo stile musicale che mescolava elementi di pop, rock, folk e musica tradizionale irlandese, O'Connor ha raggiunto l'apice della popolarità negli anni '90 con album come "The Lion and the Cobra" (1987) e "I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got" (1990). Quest'ultimo, contenente il singolo simbolo "Nothing Compares 2 U", ha venduto oltre 10 milioni di copie in tutto il mondo. La sua carriera è stata segnata da momenti controversi, come la distruzione del ritratto del Papa durante un'esibizione televisiva nel 1992, che le costò l'ostilità di alcuni e la stima di altri. Nonostante le controversie, O'Connor ha continuato a pubblicare musica fino alla fine della sua vita, esplorando nuovi generi musicali e affrontando temi sociali e politici nelle sue canzoni. Nel 2017 ha cambiato il suo nome legale in Magda Davitt e nel 2018 si è convertita all'Islam, assumendo il nome di Shuhada' Sadaqat.

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
