Mina - Mele Kalikimaka

2 note : Nuova canzone natalizia per nostra signora della musica italiana Mina: si tratta di una canzone davvero originale ed insolita, in lingua inglese e hawaiiana... infatti il titolo della canzone significa proprio "Buon natale" nella lingua del piccolo arcipelago americano. La canzone accompagna musicalmente il nuovo cinepanettone del trio Aldo, Giovanni e Giacomo,
"La banda dei Babbi Natale". Le atmosfere di "Mele Kalikimaka" evocano un Natale solare e gioioso, con i suoni dell'hukulele e della steel guitar in puro stile hawaiano. Il brano fa parte dell'EP "Una piccola strenna" ed è venduto singolarmente ed insieme a "Caramella" nel Box ""Una caramella e una piccola strenna" . Arrangiamento di Gabriele Comeglio.
Musicisti: sax: Gabriele Comeglio, batteria: Diego Corradin, basso: Lorenzo Poli, steel guitar e ukulele: Giorgio Cocilovo, piano: Franco Serafini, tromba: Emilio Soana, trombone: Mauro Parodi.
Testo:
Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say,
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day,
That's the island greeting that we send to you
From the land where palm trees sway,
Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright,
The sun to shine by day and all the stars at night,
Mele Kalikimaka is Hawaii's way
To say Merry Christmas to you.

Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say,
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day,
That's the island greeting that we send to you
From the land where palm trees sway,
Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright,
The sun to shine by day and all the stars at night,
Mele Kalikimaka is Hawaii's way
To say, Merry Christmas to you.

Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright,
The sun to shine by day and all the stars at night,
Mele Kalikimaka is Hawaii's way
To say, Merry Christmas to you.

Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say,
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day,
That's the island greeting that we send to you
From the land where palm trees sway,
Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright,
The sun to shine by day and all the stars at night,
Mele Kalikimaka is Hawaii's way
To say, Merry Christmas, marry marry christmas
To say Merry Christmas to you.
