Dimenticatevi il solito banale tunz tunz: il giovanissimo dj svedese Avicii ha infatti deciso di dare una svolta al mondo dell’elettronica mondiale con un nuovo singolo davvero carino e originale, intitolato Wake me up.
Il pezzo mescola abilmente country/folk e dance, ed è impreziosito da una parte cantata molto diversa da tante altre canzoni del genere, opera del bravissimo Aloe Blacc, autore di I need a dollar; la canzone fra l’altro conferma le doti da produttore di Avicii, che ultimamente ha fatto ballare tutto il mondo con “I could be the one”, hit altrettanto bella.
Ecco a voi dunque il testo e il video ufficiale di Wake me up, uscito poche ore fa: che ne pensate?
Testo
Feeling my way through the darkness
Guided by a beating heart
I can’t tell where the journey will end
But I know where it starts
They tell me I’m too young to understand
They say I’m caught up in a dream
Well life will pass me by if I don’t open up my eyes
Well that’s fine by me
So wake me up when it’s all over
When I’m wiser and I’m older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn’t know I was lost
[x2]
I tried carrying the weight of the world
But I only have two hands
I hope I get the chance to travel the world
And I don’t have any plans
I wish that I could stay forever this young
Not afraid to close my eyes
Life’s a game made for everyone
And love is a prize
So wake me up when it’s all over
When I’m wiser and I’m older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn’t know I was lost
[x2]
I didn’t know I was lost
I didn’t know I was lost
I didn’t know I was lost
I didn’t know I was lost
