Si intitola Go robot il nuovo singolo dei Red Hot Chili Peppers, uno dei gruppi rock statunitensi più noti al mondo. Il brano, in rotazione radiofonica dal 16 Settembre, rappresenta il secondo estratto dal loro undicesimo album in studio The getaway, rilasciato lo scorso Giugno, e segue il successo del precedente inedito Dark necessities.
Per accompagnare il lancio del pezzo è stato rilasciato il video ufficiale, una sorta di parodia-tributo a La febbre del sabato sera, celebre pellicola del ’77 con protagonisti John Travolta e Karen Lynn Gorney. La clip, diretta da Tota Lee, è stata girata nella stessa strada in cui Tony Manero camminava nella scena iniziale del film.
Cresce intanto l’attesa per l’attesissimo tour della band formata da Anthony Kiedis, Flea, Chad Smith e Josh Klinghoffer, che farà tappa anche nel nostro Paese con ben tre date tutte sold out: l’8 Ottobre all’Unipol Arena di Bologna, il 10 e l’11 al PalaAlpitour di Torino.
Go Robot: il video
Go Robot, il testo
I called the teacher cause I wanted to confess it now
can I make the time for me to come and get it blessed somehow
she spoke to me in such a simple and decisive tone
her sweet admission left me feeling in position from
I don’t take these things so personal
anymore, Anymore
I don’t think it’s irreversible
anymore
Somebody hooted and they hollered can I buy a vowel
don’t let her catch you in the act of throwing in the towel
and when it’s not as it appears to be, the flagrant foul
can I put my fingers in your mouth before you start to growl
I don’t think that it’s so terrible
anymore, Anymore
I don’t think that it’s unbearable
anymore
Tell me now, I know that it just won’t stop
you will find your flow when you go robot
I want to thank you and spank you upon your silver skin
robots don’t care where I’ve been
you’ve got to choose it to use it, so let me plug it in
robots are my next of kin
Sometimes I feel like I’m a sentimental trooper
she cried so hard, you know she looked like Alice Cooper
I don’t think that it’s so personal
anymore, Anymore
I don’t think it’s irreversible
anymore
Tell me know, I know that it just won’t stop
you will find your flow when you go robot
I want to thank you and spank you upon your silver skin
robots don’t care where I’ve been
you’ve got to choose it to use it, so let me plug it in
robots are my next of kin
I’m kissing high and low
our bodies like two dominoes
can I come and get you when I hit you in your party clothes
let’s turn this cosplay holiday, what we obey
and now we’re welcoming each other to this cabaret
I don’t think that it’s so terrible
anymore, Anymore
I don’t think that it’s unbearable
anymore
Tell me now, I know that it just won’t
stop
you will find your flow when you go robot
I want to thank you and spank you upon your silver skin
robots don’t care where I’ve been
you’ve got to choose it to use it, so let me plug it in
robots are my next of kin
