Miss Sarajevo (U2 / Pavarotti)
Miss Sarajevo est l'une des chansons de l'album Original Soundtracks 1 du groupe U2 sous le pseudonyme Passengers, album qui a été conçu comme la bande originale de films imaginaires. Miss Sarajevo a été utilisée dans le documentaire éponyme de Bill Carter (1995) qui revient sur un concours de beauté organisé dans Sarajevo assiégée, thème qui permet au journaliste Bill Carter de filmer les résistances contre l'homogénéisation forcée, la place de l'humour dans ce conflit comme résistance contre la peur et le désespoir, l'enfermement dans les caves des immeubles, ou encore le tunnel qui permit le désenclavement de la ville.
Paroles :
Is there a time for keeping your distance A time to turn your eyes away Is there a time for keeping your head down For getting on with your day Is there a time for kohl and lipstick A time for cutting hair Is there a time for high street shopping To find the right dress to wear Here she comes Heads turn around Here she comes To take her crown Is there a time to run for cover A time for kiss and tell Is there a time for different colours Different names you find it hard to spell Is there a time for first communion A time for East 17 Is there a time to turn to Mecca Is there time to be a beauty queen Here she comes Beauty plays the clown Here she comes Surreal in her crown Dici che il fiume Trova la via al mare E come il fiume Giungerai a me Oltre i confini E le terre assetate Dici che come fiume Come fiume... L'amore giunger L'amore... E non so più pregare E nell'amore non so più sperare E quell'amore non so più aspettare Is there a time for tying ribbons A time for Christmas trees Is there a time for laying tables And the night is set to freeze
Sarajevo : de la ville multiculturelle
