The hands that built America - U2 (Το τραγούδι της ημέρας 19/10/09)

Τη Δευτέρα τα ξημερώματα οι U2 θα έχουν μία συναυλία στην Pasadena. Αυτή θα προβληθεί ζωντανά στο YouTube ! Όσοι μπουν 06:30 τα ξημερώματα της Δευτέρας στο YouTube θα έχουν την ευκαιρία να παρακολουθήσουν live το φοβερό αυτό συγκρότημα. Για αυτό το λόγο το τραγούδι της ημέρας είναι από την Ιρλανδέζικη μπάντα. Είναι το "The hands that built America" που το ακούσαμε στην ταινία "The Gangs of New York" και το αγαπήσαμε πολύ...

The hands that built America

Oh my love, it's a long way we've come
From the freckled hills to the steel and glass canyons
From the stony fields, to hanging steel from the sky
From digging in our pockets for a reason not to say goodbye

These are the hands that built America
(Russian, Sioux, Dutch, Hindu)
Oh, oh oh, America
(Polish, Irish, German, Italian)

Last saw your face in a watercolour sky
As sea birds argue, a long goodbye
I took your kiss, on the spray of Endless stars
You gotta live with your dreams, don't make them so hard

And these are the hands, that built America
(The Irish, the Blacks, the Chinese, the Jews)
Ah, ah ah, America / Hand
(Korean, Hispanic, Muslim, Indian)

Of all of the promises, is this one we could keep
Of all of the dreams, is this one still out of reach

Out ta outa reeeach
(Dream-oh-yeah)
(Oh oh-dream, oh love)

It's early fall, there's a cloud on the New York skyline
Innocence, dragged across a yellow line

These are the hands that built America
These are the hands that built America
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah America
