The Clash – I Fought the Law (Official Video)

Breakin’ rocks in the hot sun
I fought the law and the law won (twice)
I needed money ‘cause I had none
I fought the law and the law won (twice)

I kill my baby and it feels so bad
Guess my race is run
She’s the best woman that I ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the

Robbin’ people with a six-gun
I fought the law and the law won (twice)
I lost my girl and I lost my fun
I fought the law and the law won (twice)

I left my baby and it feels so bad
Guess my race is run
She’s the best girl that I ever had
I fought the law and the law won

Marshmello ft. Bastille – Happier (Official Lyric Video)

Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been thinking
ultimamente, stavo, stavo pensando
I want you to be happier
Voglio che tu sia più felice
I want you to be happier
When the morning comes
quando arriva il mattino
When we see what we’ve become
quando vediamo ciò che siamo diventati
In the cold light of day we’re a flame in the wind
Nella fredda luce del giorno siamo una fiamma nel vento
Not the fire that we’ve begun
Non la fiamma che abbiamo iniziato noi
Every argument
Ogni discussione
Every word we can’t take back
Ogni parola che non possiamo ritirare
‘Cause with all that has happened
Perché con tutto ciò che è successo
I think that we both know the way that this story ends
Penso che entrambi sappiamo come questa storia andrà a finire
Then only for a minute
allora solo per un minuto
I want to change my mind
Voglio cambiare idea
‘Cause this just don’t feel right to me
perché questo non mi sembra giusto
I wanna raise your spirits
Voglio risollevarti il morale
I want to see you smile but
Voglio vedere il tuo sorriso ma
Know that means I’ll have to leave
So che questo significa che dovrei andarmene

Know that means I’ll have to leave
Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been thinking
I want you to be happier
I want you to be happier
When the evening falls
Quando cala la sera
And I’m left there with my thoughts
E sono lasciato con i miei pensieri
And the image of you being with someone else
L’immagine di te con qualcun altro
Well, it’s eating me up inside
Beh, mi sta mangiando dall’interno
But we ran our course
Ma abbiamo corso il nostro corso
We pretended we’re okay
Abbiamo finto di stare bene
Now, if we jump together
Adesso, se saltiamo insieme

At least we can swim far away from the wreck we made
alla fine possiamo nuotare lontano dal casino che abbiamo fatto
Then only for a minute
allora solo per un minuto
I want to change my mind
Voglio cambiare idea
‘Cause this just don’t feel right to me
perché questo non mi sembra giusto
I wanna raise your spirits
Voglio risollevarti il morale
I want to see you smile
Voglio vederti sorridere
Know that means I’ll have to leave
So che questo significa che dovrei andarmene

Know that means I’ll have to leave
Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been thinking
ultimamente, stavo, stavo pensando
I want you to be happier
Voglio che tu sia più felice
I want you to be happier
Voglio che tu sia più felice
So I’ll go, I’ll go
Quindi andrò, andrò
I will go, go, go
So I’ll go, I’ll go
I will go, go, go

Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been thinking
I want you to be happier
I want you to be happier
Even though I might not like this
anche se potrebbe non piacermi
I think that you’ll be happier
Penso che sarai più felice
I want you to be happier
Then only for a minute (Only for a minute)
Poi solo per un minuto (solo per un minuto)
I want to change my mind
Voglio cambiare idea
‘Cause this just don’t feel right to me
perché questo non mi sembra giusto
I wanna raise your spirits (Wanna raise your spirits)
I want to see you smile
Know that means I’ll have to leave
So che questo significa che dovrei andarmene

Know that means I’ll have to leave
Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been thinking
I want you to be happier
I want you to be happier
So I’ll go, I’ll go
I will go, go, go

Movie “The Little Princess” with eng subtitles (Public Domain)

When Captain Crewe is called to service during the Boer War, he enrolls his little daughter Sara in a boarding school run by the heartless Amanda Minchin. Sara, a generous, unspoiled child, is dubbed “The Little Princess” by her schoolmates because of her distinguished family. At the school, Sara is befriended by Amanda’s jolly brother Bertie; her riding teacher, Geoffrey Hamilton; her tutor, Rose, who is in love with Geoffrey; Becky, the little skullery maid, and Ram Dass, the servant of Lord Wickham who lives across the way. On the day of Sara’s birthday party, Miss Minchin receives word that Captain Crewe has been reported killed in action and all his assets confiscated by the enemy. To pay for Sara’s expenses, Miss Minchin sells the girl’s clothes and makes her a kitchen servant, sending her to live in the attic. After losing her father, Sara also loses her friends when Geoffrey goes off to war, Rose is fired by Miss Minchin when she learns of her love affair, and Bertie leaves because he can no longer tolerate his sister’s cruelty. However, Sara’s spirit remains undaunted, and she refuses to believe that her father is really dead. After each debarkation of wounded men, she rushes to the hospital to find him, missing him several times as he lies in bed, shell-shocked. Finally, on the day that Captain Crewe is to be shipped to Edinburgh, Sara runs to the hospital where Queen Victoria is visiting. The queen intervenes on behalf of the little waif, and with her help, Sara is at last reunited with her beloved father.
