Take your cracked violin
Let the music begin
And sing like you're Francis Hoboken
If your voice is all shot
It's still the best one you've got
You're a work of art that's broken
See what the blind man paints
Abstract expressionist saints
We ride with stateless kings
And dream that our horses have wings
Sleeping on cold stone floors
Engaged in some new noble cause
Stretch out your hands to hold
A grandeur that won't be controlled
This is the list of impossible things
We're on the list of impossible things
High on the list of impossible things
Crazy the mystic's song
But what if they're right all along
Trust what you cannot know
And pray till your prayers make it so
This is the list of impossible things
We're on the list of impossible things
High on the list of impossible things
See what the blind man paints
Abstract expressionist saints
See what the blind man paints
Abstract expressionist saints
See what the blind man paints
Abstract expressionist saints
The lyrics THE LIST OF IMPOSSIBLE THINGS of PREFAB SPROUT is also present in the album Crimson/red (2013)
Prefab Sprout è un gruppo musicale britannico di pop rock, attivo dal 1982. Fondato a Northumberland da Paddy McAloon (voce, chitarra), il gruppo ha raggiunto la fama negli anni '80 con un sound caratterizzato da melodie orecchiabili, testi poetici e arrangiamenti orchestrali complessi. Tra i brani più noti figurano "Cars and Girls", "The King of Rock'n'Roll" e "Hey!" . L'album di debutto, "Swoon", ha segnato l'inizio di una carriera ricca di successi, consolidati con il secondo album "Steve McQueen" (1985), considerato uno dei capolavori del pop britannico. McAloon, unico membro originale ancora presente nel gruppo, ha continuato a pubblicare musica fino ai giorni nostri, pur mantenendo un profilo relativamente basso rispetto al periodo di massimo successo.

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
