Ascolta ora su Radio Castelluccio Good Old days, il nuovo singolo di Macklemore e Kesha!
Il rapper di Seattle Macklemore è tornato in rotazione radiofonica da oggi sulla nostra emittente con Good old days, il bellissimo brano che vede la collaborazione della cantautrice Kesha.
Il pezzo è il secondo singolo estratto da Gemini, il nuovo album di Macklemore che vede il suo ritorno sulla scena da solista dopo la fortunatissima parentesi con il produttore Ryan Lewis. Da questa coppia nacquero le mega hit Thrift Shop e Can’t hold us contenute nel primo disco del duo, The Heist, premiato ai Grammy Awards come miglior album rap/hip hop. Durante la serata i due vennero anche premiati anche come migliori artisti emergenti.
La collaborazione tra i due è proseguita con il secondo progetto musicale This unruly mess I’ve made, lanciato dal successo Downtown, presentato live in una straordinaria esibizione agli MTV EMA tenutisi a Milano nel 2015. Gemini è la fatica discografica che vede Macklemore appunto, tornare solista dopo il suo album di debutto rilasciato nel 2005, The language of my world.
Il primo singolo estratto da questo progetto è Glorious (già disco di platino in Italia) in collaborazione con Skylar Grey. Il meraviglioso quanto commovente video clip della canzone vede Macklemore fare una sorpresa alla nonna nel giorno del suo centesimo compleanno. Ne succedono di tutti i colori!
TESTO:
I wish somebody would have told me that
Some day, these will be the good old days
All the love you won’t forget
And all these reckless nights you won’t regret
Someday soon, your whole life’s gonna change
You’ll miss the magic of these good old days
I was thinking about the band
I was thinking about the fans
We were underground
Loaded merch in that 12-passenger van
In a small club in Minnesota
And the snow outside of 1st Ave
I just wanted my name in a star
Now look at where we at
Still growing up, still growing up
I’d be laying in my bed and dream about what I’d become
Couldn’t wait to get older, couldn’t wait to be someone
Now that I’m here, wishing I was still young
Those good old days
I wish somebody would have told me that
That some day, these will be the good old days
All the love you won’t forget
And all these reckless nights you won’t regret
‘Cause someday soon, your whole life’s gonna change
You’ll miss the magic of the good old days
Wish I didn’t think I had the answers
Wish I didn’t drink all of that glass first
Wish I made it to homecoming
Got up the courage to ask her
Wish I would’ve gotten out of my shell
Wish I put the bottle back on that shelf
Wish I wouldn’t have worry about what other people thought
And felt comfortable in myself
Rooftop open and the stars above
Moment frozen, sneaking out, and falling in love
Me, you and that futon, we’d just begun
On the grass, dreaming, figuring out who I was
Those good old days
I wish somebody would have told me that
That some day, these will be the good old days
All the love you won’t forget
And all these reckless nights you won’t regret
‘Cause someday soon, your whole life’s gonna change
You’ll miss the magic of the good old days
Never thought we’d get old, maybe we’re still young
May we always look back and think it was better than it was
Maybe these are the moments
Maybe I’ve been missing what it’s about
Been scared of the future, thinking about the past
While missing out on now
We’ve come so far, I guess I’m proud
And I ain’t worried about the wrinkles around my smile
I’ve got some scars, I’ve been around
I’ve thrown some pain, I’ve seen some things, but I’m here now
Those good old days
You don’t know what you’ve got
Till it goes, till it’s gone
You don’t know what you’ve got
Till it goes, till it’s gone
I wish somebody would have told me that
Some day, these will be the good old days
All the love you won’t forget
And all these reckless nights you won’t regret
Someday soon, your whole life’s gonna change
You’ll miss the magic of these good old days
