“Spirit of the night”, questo il titolo della canzone che sarà presentata all’Eurovision Song Contest 2017 di Kiev dai rappresentanti dello Repubblica di San Marino: Valentina Monetta e Gimmi Wilson.
Per Valentina Monetta non sarà la prima esperienza su questo palco: è già stata presente infatti altre 4 volte purtroppo senza molta fortuna. Quest’anno quindi è in condizione di riprovarci, accompagnata da Gimmi Wilson, un cantante che di origine del Michigan, ora vive in Germania, e lo ricorderete sicuramente per il suo ruolo di Obama nel musical “Hope”.
I toni di questa canzone sembrano costruiti per gli Eurovision: si accompagna infatti ad un ritmo allegro e vivace un testo abbastanza semplice, in modo che tutti coloro che hanno anche una non elevata capacità di comprendere la lingua inglese. I commenti al brano però li lascio a voi; ecco dunque il testo e il video. Buon ascolto.

Him: Hey, are you the one I dream about
Her: Baby I am
Him: I really feel the night
Can take away my doubt
Her: I’ll try and do what I can
Him: Every time I see you smile –
There is sadness in your eyes
Her: well I’ve been hurt before
Him: I know it’s nothing new – and time will make you realize
Her: We always wish for more
Both: we find we’re searching high and low and always looking for the right time
Both: Together we can make it through the night
Both: It’s the spirit of the night
Spirit of the night
Burning like St. Elmo’s fire
Spirit of the night
Takes our feelings so much higher
Her: It’s the spirit of the night
we can live our fantasy
Both: Spirit of the night
Burning in our ecstasy
Him: Hey, are you the one to take my pain
Her: just take my hand
Him: I’ve been so hurt before –
It’s hard to trust again
Choir: Trust again
Her: you know I understand
Him: You’ve got me feeling right – and I can see the future is bright
Her: I’ll take your blues away
Both: So no more searching high and low and always looking for the right time
Choir: right time
Both: Together
We Choir: we
Can Choir: can
Make it trough the night
Chorus:
Both: It’s the spirit of the night
Spirit of the night
Burning like St. Elmo’s fire
Spirit of the night
Takes our feelings so much higher
Him: feed our deep desire
Her + Choir: It’s the spirit of the night
Him: it’s a feeling – got me reeling
Him: we can live our fantasy
Her: it’s the spirit of the night
Him: It’s a feeling, just a feeling, burning in our ecstasy
Her: Time to celebrate our love – We’re caught in it’s ray of light
