Gli Antennah sono state una delle band più note del rock isolano. Prodotti dal Consorzio Produttori Indipendenti, la più importante label indipendente italiana – con band come C.S.I., Marlene Kuntz, Ustmamò – nel 1997 pubblicarono “Il nostro labile equilibrio”, il loro disco d’esordio. Hanno poi rilasciato, sei anni più tardi, per la Desvelos Records di Giuseppe Pionca, “Love has many faces“, cantato in inglese e con atmosfere più rarefatte, ancora una volta con Bruce Morrison alla regia e un’ospite d’eccezione come la svedese Cia Berg, front-girl degli svedesi Whale.
Dalla sua pubblicazione in formato Cd, il disco non è mai stato reso disponibile sulle piattaforme online. Durante il lockdown, Valentino Murru, il batterista della band, ha proposto a Sa Scena Sarda di rilanciare il disco sui suoi canali. Abbiamo accolto di buon grado la richiesta di Valentino e chiacchierato un po’ con lui di quegli anni, della lavorazione del disco e dei loro rapporti con la scena d’oltremare. Ne è venuta fuori un’interessante intervista che pubblicheremo a breve sul nostro sito, in attesa della quale, potete ascoltare la versione digitale del disco attraverso il canale Youtube de “Sa Scena Sarda”. Buon ascolto.
1. Piccoli Amici Immaginari (Parte 1)
Loro si infrappongono a noi
rubandoci il sonno
e inserendo comandi di natura ignota
e ci governeranno
si, ci governeranno di un gelido “grigio” siderale
ma noi lo sapevamo amore mio
io e te lo sapevamo
2. Kites
Watch me
this is who I am
a snap-shot you see!
see the sky in the water
on the beach
kites fly high, high in the sky
try to reach
Hi blue eyes
it’s the flower’s scent
a never ending game
in our longest summer
don’t you think it’s so easy
it takes two to bend the wind
“So hold my hand
my promises stand
the universe
all the love of the universe”
Ciao my Lo’
iIdon’t want this to happen to you
walk on by
sun is warm on earth
a blast inside your heart
“So hold my hand
my promises stand
the universe
all the love of the universe”
3. Rumene (feat. Cia from Whale)
Him:
My one and gourgeous angel
a touch from high above
sweet words of confusion
neverending words
that source from softly smile
beneath the darkest eyes
Her:
We will never know
my fate, he pull the strings
unable to move
just wait for a call
he brings me back again
in our nest for love insane
Both:
“Divided we fall
between dusty sheets
close in the distance
a brief, unsteady love”
Him:
And I know there’s no answers
wouldn’ t tell you anyway
really couldn’ t careless
just wait for your call
you bring me back again
in our nest for love insane
4. Me, You and Tina Modotti
Come to me
come into my arms
cold and moonless april night
please forgive me if you don’t find me
I feel so empty, help me
love me like the first time
it always makes me wonder
you put a spell on me
failures are so youseless
give it one more try
Now is flowing slowly
we need time
we’ll fly back to our shelter
can you keep on believing
it’s true, I told you: “do not leave me”
I know it’s hard to stand me
what do you feel for me?
how do you feel without me?
I’m burning by your flame
5. Broken Nails (feat. Cia from Whale)
My unsteadiness
is feeding on your bones
and my mouth is a joyful place
tasting yours
blows my mind
it’s so lustful my bunny, honey
to swim in your womb
see your grind when you ride
see you score one more
and if I didn’t cum
it’s cause you burn too fast
you were born for that
I will burn for that
“you are biting your nails down to the bones”
My unsteadiness
is feeding on your bones
and my mouth is a joyful place
tasting yours
blows my mind
it’s so lustful my bunny, honey
to drown in your womb
“You are biting your nails down to the bones”
6. Paco Della Monte (parte 3)
7. A shot in my brain
A shot in my brain
goes … oh! so far
beyond the clouds
behind the falling stars
this shot in my brain
builds in me tunnels of pain
A shot in my brain
breaks this silence
and voices seems so loud
she tries in vain
to steal my soul
in autumn’s rain
“Hollow my heart
please don’t blame me
strangle my heart
please don’t waste me”
She tries in vain
a shot in my brain
8. Granny
Staring in silence
following cracks on the ceiling
purple time – caterpillar kind
touch my eyes
make’ em butterflies
stay with me, hold me with you
you learned me how to be true
Unwary in a cloud
wear out all my days
remember our time
filled-up with your grace
a merry-go-round
of childhood gone
so whisper to me
and sing this lullaby
“We die with this faith
to wake up in a cradle
the fight and the struggle
of love until we die
we live with this faith
to wake up in a cradle
the fight and the struggle
of love until we die”
I still miss you
can you hear me now?
free my soul from this cage
and let it fly away
touch my eyes
make’ em butterflies
stay with me, hold me with you
you learned me how to be true

My tiny little sister
sweetest cuddly kitten
amused to play my cherry lover
meet her in my dreams and
so innocent it seems, man
her skin is like a flower
My little sister
no one will discover
oceans turns to red
the sun is shooting stars
we keep under over
me and my tiny lover
a story so bizarre…
Calice di fiore
rubami il respiro
scorda qualcosa
tracce d’inconscio quando vai via
