Finding Neverland, il nuovo musical di successo di Broadway scritto dal celebre drammaturgo James Graham e diretto da Diane Paulus, dispone da qualche giorno anche di un album contenente tutte le canzoni cantate e suonate in teatro. Il musical è ispirato all’omonimo film del 2004 ma le musiche sono completamente diverse: Gary Barlow ed Eliot Kennedy si sono occupati dei testi e delle musiche dell’intera colonna sonora dell’opera.

L’album è un vero e proprio capolavoro in quanto racchiude ottimi brani cantati da diversi artisti di un certo calibro: Jennifer Lopez, Christina Aguilera, Gary Barlow, Jon Bon Jovi, John Legend, i Goo Goo Dolls, etc…

Uno dei brani che preferisco è Something about this night di cui in rete non si riesce a trovare il testo (o lyrics se preferite). Ho pensato, quindi, di aggiungerlo io sul mio blog…

Something about this night (Written by Gary Barlow and Eliot Kennedy)

I can see them,

see them forming perfect lines,

Ladies dressed up to the nines,

gentlemen and philistines,

I can hear them

everyone’s a critic here,

whispering it loud and clear,

is this the failure of the year?

Oh, in any other career

 

you would know,

know where you’re going to

in any other career they would

show you respect

Oh, but here they’re never going to

 

Something about this night

That you just can’t forget,

they sip champagne, smoke cigarettes

win or lose you wouldn’t bet

‘cause there is something

About this night,

all actors call to one,

chorus line, prepare for song,

is it too late to change everyone?

There’s only one night to impress

Unreasonable expectaions

Something about this night,

something about this night

 

I can see them

reaching for their daggers now,

hoping I would land face down,

ready to paint me as a clown,

I can feel them

Yawning , calling for the end,

oh, they’re sharpening their pens

using all my blood instead of ink

 

oh, in any other career

you would know

know where you’re going to,

in any other career they would

show you respect,

oh but here they’re never going to.

 

Something about this night

That you just can’t forget

Thwy sip champagne, smok cigarettes

Win or lose you wouldn’t bet

‘cause there is something

About this night

All actors call to one

 

Chorus line, prepare for song,

is it too late to change everyone?

There’s only one night to impress

Unreasonable expectations,

something about this night

sometheng about this night

 

it’s a fight, it’s a shove

it’’s a lobour of love,

it’s a journey o know where

you’ve seen,

It’s over, it’s thankless,

I’ve taken my chances,

does anyone know what I mean?

If there’s ever a time I should stay low

If there’s evere a ime I should say no

Waiting for six hundred people

To make up their minds,

Is why there’s something about

This night

 

‘cause there is something

About this night

That you just can’t forget,

they sip champagne, smok cigarettes

win or lose you wouldn’t bet

‘cause there is something about this night

All actors call to one

Chorus line, prepare for song

Is it too late to change everyone?

There’s only one night to impress

Unreasonable expctations

Something about this night

Something about this night

With only one night to address

Unreasonable expectations

Something about this night

Something about this night

There’s something about this night
