Katy Perry e Miley Cyrus sono tornate in classifica con due singoli usciti un decennio fa, ecco perché

Katy Perry e Miley Cyrus sono tornate nella top 50 americana di iTunes con due brani usciti oltre un decennio fa, rispettivamente Firework (del 2010) e Party In The U.S.A. (del 2012).

Perché? Perché oggi negli Stati Uniti d’America è (ancora) il 4 luglio, ovvero l’Independence Day, il giorno dell’indipendenza. E queste due canzoni possono essere considerate in qualche modo patriottiche.

E quale motivo migliore di questo, quindi, per riascoltarci del buon sano e vecchio pop dello scorso decennio? Mi manca da morire. Quale preferite fra le due, Katy Perry o Miley Cyrus?

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind
Wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards
One blow from caving in?Do you ever feel already buried deep?Six feet under screams, but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there’s still a chance for you
‘Cause there’s a spark in youYou just gotta ignite the light, and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July‘Cause, baby, you’re a firework
Come on, show ‘em what you’re worthMake ‘em go, “Oh, oh, oh”
As you shoot across the skyBaby, you’re a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make ‘em go, “Oh, oh, oh”
You’re gonna leave ‘em all in awe, awe, aweYou don’t have to feel like a waste of space
You’re original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holdsAfter a hurricane comes a rainbowMaybe a reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow
And when it’s time, you’ll knowYou just gotta ignite the light, and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July‘Cause, baby, you’re a firework
Come on, show ‘em what you’re worth
Make ‘em go, “Oh, oh, oh”
As you shoot across the skyBaby, you’re a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make ‘em go, “Oh, oh, oh”You’re gonna leave ‘em all in awe, awe, aweBoom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It’s always been inside of you, you, you
And now it’s time to let it through‘Cause, baby, you’re a firework
Come on, show ‘em what you’re worthMake ‘em go, “Oh, oh, oh”
As you shoot across the skyBaby, you’re a firework
Come on, make your colors burst
Make ‘em go, “Oh, oh, oh”
You’re gonna leave ‘em all in awe, awe, aweBoom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

I hopped off the plane at L.AX
With a dream and my cardigan
Welcome to the land of fame excess (woah)
Am I gonna fit in?
Jumped in the cab, here I am for the first time
Look to my right, and I see the Hollywood sign
This is all so crazyEverybody seems so famousMy tummy’s turnin’ and I’m feelin’ kinda home sick
Too much pressure and I’m nervous
That’s when the taxi man turned on the radio
And a Jay-Z song was on
And a Jay-Z song was on
And a Jay-Z song was onSo I put my hands upThey’re playing my song, the butterflies fly away
I’m noddin’ my head like, yeah
Movin’ my hips like, yeah
I got my hands up, they’re playing my song
They know I’m gonna be okay
Yeah, it’s a party in the U.S.A.
Yeah, it’s a party in the U.S.A.
Get to the club in my taxi cab
Everybody’s looking at me now
Like, “Who’s that chick, that’s rockin’ kicks?
She gotta be from out of town”
So hard with my girls not around me
It’s definitely not a Nashville party‘Cause all I see are stilettos
I guess I never got the memoMy tummy’s turnin’ and I’m feelin’ kinda home sick
Too much pressure and I’m nervous
That’s when the DJ dropped my favorite tune
And a Britney song was on
