Megapost Welcome to the inaugural year-end. We start with the ranking of new records that I heard and appreciated more in 2010. This is not a league that wants to be objective, but only the usual enthusiasm leads me to share my tastes.
international best albums of 2010
10 Girl Talk - All Day
(I do not like mash-ups, but this album is a hoot)
09 Posies - Candy Blood
(How to make pop music)
08 Nada Surf - If I Had An Hi-fi
(An album of covers power pop, unpretentious, and yet I've heard a lot)
07 Big Boi - Sir Lucious Left Foot
(a sign that you can still make hip hop records that burst of fantasy. But the hard the number one show you can do just as well with a dark fantasy and sick)
06 Robyn - Body Talk
("Now what, your jaw has dropped . Until the music stops, you know. I still run this thing like a dancehall queen )
05 Gil Scott-Heron - I'm New Here
(Gil returns after a life with a hard short, poignant beauty and intensity)
04 Vampire Weekend - Contra
(A strange case of rock without rock for the new times. Yet, between Paul Simon and Talking Heads, it all works)
03 LCD Soundsystem - This Is Happening
(Still Talking Heads, as well as Bowie, the New York of late '70s is the breaking of the boundaries between rock and dance)
02 The Divine Comedy - Bang Goes The Knighthood
(L ' art of song. " Can you write a silly song ? It's Harder Than you think!")
01 Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
("I'm living in the future so the present is my past / My presence is a present, kiss my And the ass ...")
Italian where are they? Phew, too complicated to put them in competition with each other. I will just say that my palm Italian album of the year goes to
Sikitikis - Hard-fashioned
... with honorable mention for and Honeybird Virginiana Miller & The Birdies.
then passed to the list of 2010 concerts - all seen in Rome - that made me go home happy, excited, incredulous, amused, laden like a beast, exhausted and happy, but not with the mad desire to see a lot more live music in 2011.
Best concerts of 2010
13 The Fleshtones (Circle of Artists)
12 Mystery Jets (Circle of Artists)

Third stage with the usual corner "poetry and music" (follow the discussion) : this time I chose to translate a song Christmas sad and beautiful, signed by the great John Prine:
Christmas in Prison
(John Prine, Souvenirs album of 2000, translated by Christopher Bassotti)
was Christmas in prison and the food was so good
had turkey and pistols carved out of wood And I dream
she always
even when I dream
always his name on the tip of the tongue
and his blood in my veins.
Wait a moment, eternity,
the old Mother Nature can do nothing against me
come to me run to me,
come to me now
We'll be rocking, my love
are flowing to
the love of god!
She reminds me of a chess game with someone I admire
or a picnic in the rain
after a fire in the prairie.
His heart is big as a goddamn prison
she's sweeter than saccharine
selling the grocery store.
The light tower in the great courtyard
goes around with a gun
lights and snowflakes like dust in the sun
is Christmas in prison
there will be music tonight and I know I will miss my home.
I love you. Good night.
This translation I read in the Christmas episode of my show on Radio Meridiano 12 " Music secret", which like the previous games when you can listen here: http://www

That 2011 is beautiful and full of music, "I kiss and there strabenedico "
Pao.
