Vorrei essere a Tijuana/Mangiare barbeque di iguana/ Prenderei richieste al telefono//Sono su una lunghezza d'onda lontano da casa/Mi sento un vento caldo sulla spalla//Compongo dal sud del confine/Ho sentito parlare del dj/Non riesco a capire che cosa dice?/
I'm on a mexican radio. I'm on a Mexican, whoa-Oh, radio
La canzone dei Wall of Voodoo, la voce unica di Stan Ridgway (che, non per vantarmi, ma mi ha fatto ben due autografi!), il gotico messicano, il culto dei morti, i colori sgargianti, ma anche i nativi americani (mai avuto dubbi, fin da piccola sono stata dalla loro parte!), gli "Etruschi from Lakota" (perchè noi pisani di campagna siamo un po' come gli indiani, ma niente a che vedere col leghismo, eh!) e poi Lila Downs, donna luminosa e le origini latine che ogni tanto ribollono!
Tutto questo ha ispirato queste foto.
The song of Wall of Voodoo, the unique voice of Stan Ridgway (which, not to brag, but I did two autographs!), The Mexican gothic, the cult of the dead, the bright colors, but also the Native Americans (never had doubts, even as a child I was on their side!), the "Etruscan from Lakota" (because we Pisan country we are a bit 'as the Indians, but nothing to do with the Lega, huh!) and then Lila Downs, bright woman and Latin origins that sometimes boil!
All this has inspired these photos.

And the touch of a world that is older
I turn the switch and check the number
I leave it on when in bed I slumber
I hear the rhythms of the music
I buy the product and never use it
I hear the talking of the DJ
Can't understand just what does he say?
I dial it in and tune the station
They talk about the U.S. inflation
I understand just a little
No comprende, it's a riddle
They talk about the U.S. inflation
I understand just a little
No comprende, it's a riddle
I wish I was in Tijuana
Eating barbequed iguana
I'd take requests on the telephone
I'm on a wavelength far from home
I feel a hot wind on my shoulder
I dial it in from south of the border
I hear the talking of the DJ
Can't understand just what does he say?
