[[Red Hot Chili Peppers – Easily]]

Questo brano dei Red Hot Chili Peppers, che risale al 1999 e al loro disco di maggior successo (Californication), mi torna spesso in mente, a intervalli regolari. La musica non è soltanto bella, ma ha in se qualcosa di eccezionalmente vitale; la strofa, in minore, parla di tormento e movimento, di cose che cambiano e succedono, di una barca in mezzo ai marosi dell’oceano; il ritornello, invece, è un momento di sollievo e di tranquillità, la stessa barca al sole sulle acque piatte di una laguna.

Le parole, come spesso accade nei RHCP, non sono immediatamente comprensibili; trasmettono, più che dire. C’è chi la interpreta come una canzone pacifista, chi come una canzone per un amore che finisce; probabilmente, come da riferimenti allo Zen, è semplicemente una serie di fotogrammi e di estratti di vita che si alternano sul basso robusto e ondeggiante di Flea, finchè alla fine nulla rimane e di tutto ci si libera. Forse è proprio per questo che questo temporale dolce-amaro mi piace tanto.

Easily, let’s get carried away
Easily, let’s get married today
Shao Lin shouted a rose from his throat
Everything must go
A lickin’ stick is thicker when you break it to show
Everything must go

The story of a woman on the morning of a war
Remind me if you will exactly what we’re fighting for
Calling calling for something in the air
Calling calling I know you must be there

Easily, let’s get caught in a wave
Easily, we won’t get caught in a cage
Shao Lin shakin’ for the sake of his soul
Everything must go
Lookin’ mighty tired of all the things that you own
Everything must go

I can’t tell you who to idolize
You think it’s almost over but it’s only on the rise
Calling calling for something in the air
Calling calling I know you must be there
The story of a woman on the morning of a war
Remind me if you will exactly what we’re fighting for
Throw me to the wolves because there’s order in the pack
Throw me to the sky because I know I’m coming back

Shao Lin shakin’ for the sake of his soul
Everything must go
Lookin’ mighty tired of all the things that you own
Everything must go

The story of a woman on the morning of a war
Remind me if you will exactly what we’re fighting for
Calling calling for something in the air
Calling calling I know you must be there
I don’t want to be your little research monkey boy
The creature that I am is only going to destroy
Throw me to the wolves because there’s order in the pack
Throw me to the sky because I know I’m coming back
