#IspiratiDagliAstri: Europe – The Final Countdown

Quattordicesimo appuntamento con la rubrica #IspiratiDagliAstri: ogni venerdì verrà pubblicata sul blog una musica, a tematica astronomica o semplicemente che riporta ad un’atmosfera cosmica. Dalla musica classica allo space rock, dalle colonne sonore di film di fantascienza all’ambient, verranno condivise musiche di vario genere ispirate all’universo ed al mondo dell’astronomia.

Questa settimana un po’ di pop metal di qualche anno fa con The Final Countdown degli svedesi Europe. Il testo della canzone è ispirato a quello di Space Oddity di David Bowie.

We’re leaving together
But still it’s farewell
And maybe we’ll come back
To earth, who can tell?
I guess there is no one to blame
We’re leaving ground (leaving ground)
Will things ever be the same again?

It’s the final countdown
The final countdown
Ohh!

We’re heading for Venus (Venus)
And still we stand tall
Cause maybe they’ve seen us
And welcome us all yeah
With so many lightyears to go
And things to be found (to be found)
I’m sure that we’ll all miss her so

It’s the final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown
(Final countdown). Ohhh oh oh ohhhh
The final countdown.
Ohhhhhhhhhh
It’s the final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown
(Final countdown)
Ohhh. It’s the final countdown
We’re leaving togetherrrr.
(The final countdown)
We’ll all miss her so
It’s the final countdown (Final countdown)
Ohhh. It’s. the. final. countdown
