Suite Botanique

Cherry Blossom (Reinvented)

There is a summer festival in Japan where children make paper crafts to hang on bamboo trees. Based on the legend that this is to be the only day in the whole year when two lovers (stars) that were separated by the Milky Way get to meet one another, people also make wishes and hang them on the bamboo. I think this tradition shows that we want to believe that there are miracles in this world - that there are times when impossible things become possible. 

This prelude is warm, bright and vast. It consists of three main components: The first is the light and airy introduction and ending portraying paper crafts wavering on the tree. The second component depicts the calm stars above, in G major. The third part is the theme from the first prelude (“Paper Birds”). This theme that is shared between the first and last preludes act as bookends as they unite the idea of things we humans make with our hands and send out our thoughts up into the universe.

Regnava nel silenzio - Quando rapito in estasi

Shattered

"You Can't Always Get What You Want" is a song by the English rock band the Rolling Stones from their 1969 album Let It Bleed. Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, it was named as the 100th greatest song of all time by Rolling Stone magazine in its 2004 list of the "500 Greatest Songs of All Time" before dropping a place the following year.
The three verses (and the varied theme of the fourth verse) address major topics of the 1960s: love, politics, and drugs. Each verse captures the essence of the initial optimism and eventual disillusion, followed by the resigned pragmatism of the chorus.

Unterberger elaborated:

Much has been made of the lyrics reflecting the end of the overlong party that was the 1960s, as a snapshot of Swinging London burning out. That's a valid interpretation, but it should also be pointed out that there's also an uplifting and reassuring quality to the melody and performance. This is particularly true of the key lyrical hook, when we are reminded that we can't always get what we want, but we'll get what we need.

Jimmy Hutmaker of Excelsior, Minnesota, claimed to be the "Mr. Jimmy" cited in the song and that he said the phrase "you can't always get what you want" to Jagger during a chance encounter at an Excelsior drug store in 1964. However, David Dalton, a writer for Rolling Stone who witnessed the filming of The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus, claims in his commentary for the DVD of the concert that "Mr. Jimmy" refers to Miller, the Stones producer from 1968 to 1973.

Marianne Faithfull has also claimed a role: "Obviously I also contributed to 'You Can't Always Get What You Want' and 'Dear Doctor' – junk songs ... I know they used me as a muse for those tough drug songs. I knew I was being used but it was for a worthy cause."

Release and aftermath
The song was originally released on the B-side of "Honky Tonk Women" in July 1969. Although it did not chart at the time, London Records re-serviced the single in 1973 and "You Can't Always Get What You Want" reached number 42 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 34 on the Cashbox Top 100 Singles chart. One of the Stones' most popular recordings, it has since appeared on the compilations Hot Rocks, Singles Collection (single version), Forty Licks, Rolled Gold+: The Very Best of the Rolling Stones (2007 edition), Singles 1968-1971 (single version), Slow Rollers (single version) and GRRR! (single version).

Live recordings appear on the albums Love You Live, Flashpoint, Live Licks, Brussels Affair, Hyde Park Live, and Havana Moon, as well as on The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus, filmed in 1968. Stones concert films that contain the song include: Ladies and Gentlemen: The Rolling Stones, From the Vault – L.A Forum - Live in 1975, Let's Spend the Night Together, Stones at the Max, Bridges to Babylon Tour '97–98, Four Flicks, The Biggest Bang, Sweet Summer Sun: Hyde Park Live, and Havana Moon.

The song was performed live with members of Voce Chamber Choir and London Youth Choir for the Stones' 2012 shows in London, November 25 and November 29. The same choir also performed on the track at Glastonbury and two performances at Hyde Park in 2013."        Wikipedia

Jamiroquai's lyrics
When I met you
You were so unique
You had a little thing I'd love to keep
Every movement
Carried much mystique
I knew right then I'd carry on
To you, I knew my heart belongs
You know, you
You give me something
Something that nobody else can give
And my heart
Started thumping
You know now, you're the one I truly know I dig
Like the sunbeams from a perfect summer day
Heaven only seems a step away
When I'm with you, I just celebrate
I'm hoping my message gets through
There's never been someone like you
I had nobody, but on you, I'd lean
'Cause you got these little things that I
I know I've never seen
You know now, you
You give me something
Something that nobody else has got
And this love
That I've been wanting
Oh baby, is turning out to be too fast to stop
You know now, ooh
You give me something
Something that nobody else can give
See my heart
Has started thumping
You know babe
You're the one I truly know I dig
Ooh, will you give me something?
Ooh, will you give me something?
Ooh, will you give me something?
Ooh, will you give me something?
Ooh, will you give me something?
Ooh, will you give me something?
Ooh, will you give me something?
Ooh, will you give me something?
You give me something that nobody else can give
Ooh, will you give me something?
You give me something that nobody else can give
Ooh, will you give me something?
Ooh, will you give me something?
Ooh, will you give me something?
Ooh, will you give me something?
Ooh, will you give me something?
Ooh, will you give me something?
Ooh, will you give me-
