No Problem
(Bensi, Hampshire, Kent)
La barca, e il sole
mi fanno gioia, sempre gioia.
Le ragazze, son' bagnate
nel mare, nel mare
Non torno mai a casa mia...
and I will never go home.
Sono inamorato con la mia fidanzata
nell pensiero (pensiero)
ma non sta sera (non sta sera)
Non torno mai a casa mia...
and I will never go home.
Come le stelle, della notte le donne
son' le luci nella vita
No, I'll never go home.
La barca, e il sole
sempre gioia, fanno gioia.
Non torno mai a casa mia...
I will never go home again
I will never go home.
This song was born on Marco's stag-do in September 2007 whilst sailing around the Turkish coast in a gullet called "Holiday 5". The turkish sun, sea and sand inspired the mighty mortimer.
The song was started when Rich was playing some Latin flavoured guitar and Marco started adlibbing words in Italian. The first verse was completed in seconds. Ben then added the English "No Ill never go home" bit which initially went at the end of the verses.
Rich went away and came back with some nice chords and a melody for a chorus. They rearranged the English bit to go on the end and Marco then translated this to form the Italian words for the first half of the chorus.
Marco, Rich and Ben then came up with words to the second verse in English which were translated on the spot by Marco as they sailed across the ocean waves.
After a trip to Marmaris Rich came up with a Russian sounding middle 8 and some words were written the following day whilst the three boys sat on deck looking at the stars. This bit was later dropped but the original words were adapted to fit a new middle 8 written by Ben.
The third verse lyrics were written by the three boys (and again translated by Marco) at a band practice when they got back to England.
Ben and Rich then worked on an arrangement and the backing track was recorded on 7th October 2007.
