The quest for the perfect song – 1 – Billie Holiday – Don’t Explain
Alla ricerca della canzone perfetta – primo tentativo
Billie Holiday – Don’t explain
una spiegazione della (semplice) e triste storia alla base della canzone in questo breve estratto inglese sulla NPR (apre un player)
Il testo (clamorosamente autoesplicativo: la grandezza è semplicità )
Hush now, don't explain Just say you'll remain I'm glad your back, don't explain Quiet, don't explain What is there to gain Skip that lipstick Don't explain You know that I love you And what love ain't does All my thoughts of you For I'm so completely yours Cry to hear folks chatter And I know you cheat Right or wrong, don't matter When you're with me, sweet Hush now, don't explain You're my joy and pain My life's yours love Don't explain
