Something as simple as Rock'n'Roll would save us all

Mi ero dimenticata quanto mi era piaciuto Frank Turner quando l'ho visto al Reading in agosto... mi ero ripromessa di ascoltare gli album una volta tornata a casa, invece poi mi è passato di mente.
Bè, sto recuperando stasera. E confermo, mi piace proprio.



Here ye, here ye, friends and Roman country man
Here ye, here ye, punks and skins and journey man
Here ye, here ye, my sisters and my brother and the time
Is coming near

Come ye, come ye, to sole less corporate circus stops
Come ye, come ye, to toilet circling touring stops
Come ye, come ye, bedrooms, bars and bunker swats
The sound is ringing clear

Now who'd of thought, that after all
Something as simple as rock'n'roll would save us all
Now who'd of thought, that after all
It's rock n roll

Here ye, here ye, now anybody could take this stage
Here ye, here ye, and make miracles for minimum wage
Here ye, here ye, these folk songs of the modern age
Will hold us all in their arms

Right here, right now, Elvis brings his children home
Right here, right now, never had to feel alone
Right here, right now, teenage kicks and grammar phones
We hold them, in our hearts

Now who'd of thought, that after all
Something simple as rock'n'roll would save us all
Now who'd of thought, that after all
It was rock and roll

I still believe
(I still believe)
In the saints
Yeah in Jerry Lee and Johnny and all the greats

I still believe
(I still believe)
In the sound
That has the power to raise a temple and tear it down

I still believe
(I still believe)
In the need
For guitars and drums and desperate poetry

I still believe
(I still believe)
That everyone
Can find a song for every time they've lost and every time they've won

Just remember folks we're not just saving lives, we're saving souls
We're having fun

I still believe
Now who'd of thought that after all
Something as simple as rock'n'roll would save us all
Now who'd of thought, after all
Something so simple, something so small
Who'd of thought, after all
It's rock'n'roll


Posto anche un video della stessa canzone proprio del Reading, non perchè sia buono il video (la tipa/il tipo si muove parecchiotto), ma perchè rende molto l'atmosfera del momento (lacrimuccia di ricordo)
