higher and higher (your love keeps lifting me)
Thursday, November 5th, 2009Quando ero ragazzina andavo pazza per questa canzone, mi parlava della lontana lontana Philadelphia e di un amore maestoso e trionfale – mi ricordo ancora tutte le parole, e canto le parti dei cori, e quella strepitosa parte dei fiati, e quando sale in Re, e quel soul della vecchia scuola… ooh. Eccolo che l’ha risuonata l’altra sera, tornando anche lui ragazzino.
When I was a kid I use to go crazy for this song, it spoke to me of distant Philadelphia and love that was majestic and triumphal – I still remember all the words, and sing all the backing parts, and that amazing horn section and the shift to D and the old school soul… ooh. There he played it again the other night, becoming a kid again himself.
