Italian music: English lyrics, Vasco Rossi vs Luciano Ligabue

Okay so once you’ve got past the strange choice of Queen’s “We will rock you”, this is a montage video comparing Vasco Rossi’s “Il mondo che vorrei” with Luciano Ligabue’s “Il centro del mondo” (or “The world I’d like” and “The centre of the world”).

The two are the reigning rock idols in Italy and both have had long and successful careers.
As we’ve already written on this site, Italians either love Rossi or hate him, and most rock fans can be divided into Vasco or Ligabue camps.

We give you some English lyrics after the jump and the two video clips of the songs.
“Il mondo che vorrei”, Vasco RossiNon si puòsorvolare le montagnenon puoi andaredove vorresti andare.
Sai cosa c’èogni cosa resta qui.
Qui si puòsolo piangere……e alla fine non si piange neanche più.
You can’t fly over mountainsYou can’t go where you want toYou know what there is – everything is hereHere you can only cry…And in the end you don’t even cry anymoreEd è proprio quando arrivo li che già ritornereied è sempre quando sono qui che io ripartireied è come quello che non c’è che io rimpiangereiquando penso che non è così il mondo che vorrei.

And it’s when I get there that already I’d like to returnAnd it’s always when I’m here that I’d leave againAnd it’s it what there isn’t that I’d regretWhen I think that it’s this the world I’d like“Il centro del mondo”, Luciano Ligabueportami ovunqueportami al mareportami dovenon serve sognarechiedimi il cambiosolo se devisei brava a guidaree dopo portami oltre che lo sai faredove sparisce qualsiasi confinefammi vedere che cosa vuol direviaggiare col cuoreTake me everywhereTake me to the seaTake me where you don’t need to dreamAsk me to change only if you have toYou’re a good driverAnd take me over as you know howWhere borders disappearShow me what it meansTo travel with the heartsei sempre così il centro del mondoil primo bengala sparato nel cielo quando mi perdosei sempre così il centro del mondoti prendi il mio tempoti prendi il mio spazioti prendi il mio meglioYou’re always the centre of the worldThe first bengal exploded in the sky when I’m lostYou take my timeYou take my spaceYou take the best of me“Il mondo che vorrei”, Vasco Rossi“Il centro del mondo”, Luciano Ligabue
