Italian music, again 10th Maggio 2012

Un alto amore - Gino Paoli
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WB05ri92l1M
Lyrics are here (they are are quite easy to understand for me! Well, at least distinguish whilst he's singing)
http://www.italianissima.net/testi/unaltro.htm


Cento volte ho pensato di averti incontrato
Cento volte ho capito di avere sbagliato
Ma è bastato un tuo piccolo gesto
Così logico quando l'ho visto
Per capire che
Eri proprio tu
Non ci sarà un altro amore
Non ci sarà un'altra volta
Non ho più il cuore libero
Non c'è spazio per altre storie
Non ci sarà un'altra volta
Non ci sarà un altro amore
Lo sapevo
Che da qualche parte esistevi
T'ho cercata
T'ho trovata in mille amori
Ma ogni volta mancava qualcosa
Sì mancava quel piccolo gesto
E alla fine tu
Finalmente tu
Non ci sarà un altro amore
Non ci sarà un altra volta
Chi mancava sulla mia strada
Eri tu e comunque vada
Non ci sarà un altro amore
Quel che sembra impossibile
Qualche volta sembra impossibile
Qualche volta succede ancora
Non ci sarà un'altra volta
Non ci sarà un altro amore

And what am I watching?

Only two things here
1) The Giro
2) I Soliti Idioti

Great take on Sicilian accent/dialect - Minchia!

And of course on the DVDs from my parents, on which they pick all that is wonderful on UK TV and post to me it is currently: The Apprentice, 4 in a bed, and many other classics!
