Selezione musicale 70 – Mumford & Sons Little Lion Man

I Mumford & Sons sono un gruppo musicale indie folk di Londra che sta avendo una bellissima carriera. Hanno pubblicato inizialmente 3 EP e solo dopo sono stati messi sotto contratto da una major, pubblicando fino ad ora due album.
Hanno una sonorità caratteristica, basata su chitarre accompagnate da contrabbasso, banjio e mandolino, che alla lunga potrebbe creare una certa ripetitività, ma sapranno rinnovarsi.
Il brano Little Lion Man fa parte del primo album, Sigh No More, pubblicato a fine 2009.

Weep for yourself, my man,
You’ll never be what is in your heart
Weep Little Lion Man,
You’re not as brave as you were at the start
Rate yourself and rake yourself,
Take all the courage you have left
Wasted on fixing all the problems
That you made in your own head

But it was not your fault but mine
And it was your heart on the line
I really fucked it up this time
Didn’t I, my dear?
Didn’t I, my…

Tremble for yourself, my man,
You know that you have seen this all before
Tremble Little Lion Man,
You’ll never settle any of your scores
Your grace is wasted in your face,
Your boldness stands alone among the wreck
Now learn from your mother or else spend your days Biting your own neck

But it was not your fault but mine
And it was your heart on the line
I really fucked it up this time
Didn’t I, my dear? (x2)

Didn’t I, my dear?

Ahhhhh……

But it was not your fault but mine
And it was your heart on the line
I really fucked it up this time
Didn’t I, my dear? (x2)

Didn’t I, my dear?
