- Un brano dei The Gathering, band che non ho paura di definire "i nuovi Pink Floyd";
- Un singolo di una diciottenne norvegese che, in quanto a maturità artistica ed interpretativa, fa mangiare la polvere a tante colleghe ultra-trentenni;
- Un brano della mia piromane* norvegese preferita, la cui voce angelica culla in un attimo di pace e speranza.
The Gathering - Heroes for Ghosts
You moved all that was in my world and showed me all the new colours,Aurora - Murder Song (5, 4, 3, 2, 1) [Acoustic Version]
In my universe where storms run.
Falling, falling, falling, fall into me!
I hear echoes of my speech
And I see shadows of my walk.
[...]
Were watching stone saints fall over,
While the black crows will be taking to the sky.
[...]
My heart is drifting through all shades of green.
My head is thinking through meadows of the sea...
He holds the gun against my head.Kari Rueslåtten - Rainy Days Ahead
I close my eyes and – bang! – I am dead.
I know he knows that he’s killing me for mercy.
[...]
Oh, he did it all to spare me from the awful things in life that come.
I'm no longer scared!
Can you feel? Can you hear? My heart beating when you're near.
Close your eyes, make believe you're not alone tonight!
I will be a shadow on your side, a quiet light.
