(Testo e musica di Daniele Moraca)
Quanta luce negli occhi ma che bella città
era strana costruita solo per metà
ero certo d'essere in un posto che
conoscevo e tu lo sai perché
c'era il sole e il calore che c'è in te…
Ho incontrato visi nuovi sempre più a Sud
sotto il sole caldo che c'era laggiù
non capivo perché erano cosi neri
una luce negli occhi di uomini sinceri
io mi muovo e mi accorgo di esser li…
Sto navigando verso Sud
dove c'è gente quella che
tu non hai conosciuto mai,
sto fermo e guardo il mare blu
sembra un incanto un sogno il Sud
lo guardo mentre canto un blues…
Questa terra cosi rossa senza limiti
questi raggi luminosi che t'inseguono
quanto sole tanto cuore tanto Sud
metto in testa un ritmo che mi porta via
prendo il volo guardo il cielo e ci sei tu…
Io mi sento nel vuoto sospeso su quest'isola
queste enormi distese io guardo pensando alla vita
l'allegria l'energia lo senti il profumo
ma vedo che già si allontana la riva
io mi muovo e mi accorgo di esser qui…
Sto navigando verso Nord
dove c'è gente quella che
tu non hai conosciuto mai
oh si… sto fermo e guardo il mare blu
sembra un incanto un sogno il Sud
lo guardo mentre suono un blues.
Daniele Moraca is a Calabrian singer-songwriter and poet, born in Cosenza. He graduated in Music and Performing Arts from the University of Calabria with a thesis on Rino Gaetano. He is a cultural expert in anthropology and teaches acoustic guitar and singing. His passion for songwriting has led him to analyze poetic musical songs from an anthropological perspective. Moraca collaborates with the OMG group for music production and with the chair of cultural anthropology at the University of Arcavacata, Rende (Cs). His songs, characterized by a warm Mediterranean musical style, address current and engaging themes such as youth issues, politics, social issues, and love. His musical career began in the 1980s with the formation of the Kembò group, with whom he performed in various Italian squares. Moraca is known for his one-man band performances, which have taken him to cities in Italy and internationally, including Torshavn (Faroe Islands), Vancouver (Canada), Brussels, Paris, and Baden Baden (Germany). In 1984, he released his first album, “L’aquila e la nuvola”, which reflects his sensitivity in telling everyday stories with simplicity and naturalness. Currently, he owns a recording studio and music school: the COTTON CLUB STUDIO, and is the artistic director of the Terrain Vague art gallery (Cs).

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
