Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Kimbra) - Goyte

Avrei voluto variare, fare qualcosa di speciale per i tre anni di blog, non so, una canzone non triste ma che mi piacesse molto, c'ho provato, ma proprio non l'ho trovata e allora niente, gioco in casa con questa canzone che sta avendo non poco successo piazzandosi al sesto posto nella classifica dei 100 video musicali più ascoltati su youtube.

Non fate come me, quando una mia amica la prima volta me l'ha fatta sentire sono rimasta un attimo spiazzata dal video curioso, poi un'altra mia amica mi ha mandato la sua personale cover di questa canzone e gioco forza l'ho ascoltata come si deve, il resto è storia :P

Perché l'ho scelta...perché "adesso sei solo qualcuno che un tempo conoscevo" è il messaggio che più o meno velatamente permea il blog, i primi tempi era mirato, adesso è anonimo, ma bene o male se dovessi dare un sottotitolo al blog, sarebbe questo.

[Gotye:]
Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it’s an ache I still rememberYou can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end, always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I’ll admit that I was glad it was over

But you didn’t have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don’t even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
No you didn’t have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don’t need that though
Now you’re just somebody that I used to know

Now you’re just somebody that I used to know
Now you’re just somebody that I used to know

[Kimbra:]
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I’d done
But I don’t wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn’t catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know

[Gotye:]
But you didn’t have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don’t even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
And you didn’t have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don’t need that though
Now you’re just somebody that I used to know
