Messina Video

Music Video from: Jo Dee Messina, I'm Alright, 1998 Curb Records. Lyrics: Boy you sure look good there standin' in the doorway in the sunset light Maybe I read you wrong thinkin' you could be my Mr. Right I was puttin' my heart and soul on the line Said you needed some time, just a little more time to make up your mind Well it's been long enough Time is up Bye bye love, I'll catch you later Got a lead foot down on my accelerator and the rearview mirror torn off I ain't never lookin' back. And that's a fact. I've tried all I can imagine I've begged and pleaded in true lover's fashion I've got pride, I'm takin' it for a ride Bye bye, bye bye my baby, bye bye Don't think all those tears are gonna hold me here like they've done before You'll find what's left of us in a cloud of dust on highway 4 Baby what did you expect me to do Just sit around and wait on you Well I'm through watchin' you just skate around the truth And I know it sounds trite I've seen the light Bye bye love, I'll catch you later Got a lead foot down on my accelerator and the rearview mirror torn off 'Cause I ain't never lookin' back, and that's a fact. I've tried all I can imagine I've begged and pleaded in true lover's fashion I've got pride, I'm takin' it for a ride Bye bye, bye bye my baby, bye bye I'd lost the game I guess I did my best to win the part Now I'm leavin' here with what's left of my heart. Bye bye, I'll catch you later Got a lead foot down on my accelerator and the rearview mirror torn off <b>...</b>

Thank you all so much for your views and responses.

A proposito di FISH, un commento di Sergio Messina, mente lucida ed intellettualmente onesta, tratto dal suo blog: www.radiogladio.it APPLAUSI PER FISH - 29.06.06 06:14 pm Ultimamente ogni volta che accendo la Tv ci trovo dentro Fish: il singolo Cos'è che vuoi da me (feat. Esa & Kelly Joyce) è in rotazione su diverse stazioni musicali, e poi compare nel video Applausi per Fibra di Fabri Fibra, che ha prodotto. Questo mi rende molto contento. Conosco Fish da oltre 10 anni, quando iniziava coi Sottotono, e mi è sempre sembrato una persona bellissima. Bravo, dotato, modesto, capace di portare a casa un progetto da solo (è il caso di Robe Grosse, il primo album di un produttore italiano ad avere successo, in assoluto) e di farlo con stile e coerenza. Fish non ha perso la testa nemmeno quando è stato il primo DJ a salire sul palco di Sanremo, o quando - sull'onda della bagarre con Striscia - fu imitato da quelli del Bagaglino. E' una persona saggia e bella, forse la più sana che abbia mai incontrato in questo ambiente. Quindi quando lo vedo in Tv che sbircia nell'obiettivo e fa su e giù con la testa, mi sale il buonumore. Di tante teste vuote che popolano questa scena, è ottimo che invece stia venendo fuori proprio Fish. E' l'ennesima dimostrazione che l'Hip hop italiano sta crescendo, e bene, malgrado l'industria che ci ritroviamo. ##################################### Per saperne di più: it.wikipedia.org
