Horoscope for Scorpio 17 April 2006 ~ 23 April 2006
You need to keep busy doing things that you both enjoy. Think twice before you say something you might regret later. Take care of any pressing medical problems that you or one of your parents may be suffering from. Outdoor sports events should entice you.

Caruso by Josh Groban. It's in Italian though, so I've included the English translation.
Caruso
Qui dove il mare luccica,
e tira forte il vento
sulla vecchia terrazza
davanti al golfo di Surriento
un uomo abbraccia una ragazza
dopo che aveva pianto
poi si schiarisce la voce,
e ricomincia il canto
Te vojo bene assai
ma tanto tanto bene sai
e una catena ormai
che scioglie il sangue dint'e vene sai...
Vide le luci in mezzo al mare,
penso alle notti la in America
ma erano solo le lampare
e la bianca scia di un'elica
senti il dolore nella musica,
e si alzo dal p ianoforte
ma quando vide uscire
la luna da una nuvola,
gli sembro piu dolce anche la morte
guardo negli occhi la ragazza,
quegli occhi verdi come il mare
poi all'improvviso usci una lacrima
e lui credette di affogare
Te vojo bene assai
ma tanto tanto bene sai
e una catena ormai
che scioglie il sangue dint'e vene sai...
Potenza della lirica,
dove ogni dramma e un falso
che con un po' di trucco e con la mimica
puoi diventare un altro
ma due occhi che tie guardano,
cosi vicini e veri
ti fan scordare le parole,
confondono i pensieri
cosi diventa tutto piccolo,
anche le notti la in America
ti volti e vedi la tua vita,
dietro la scia di un'elica
ma si, e la vita che finisce,
e non ci penso poi tant
anzi, si sentiva gia felice,
e ricomincio il suo canto
Te vojo bene assai
ma tanto tanto bene sai
e una catena ormai
che sciolglie il sangue dint'e vene sai...
English Translation:
Here, where the sea shines
and the wind howls,
on the old terrace
beside the gulf of Sorrento,
a man embraces a girl
after the tears,
then clears his throat
and contines the song:
I love you very much
very, very much, you know;
it is a chain by now
that heats the blood inside the veins,
you know...
He saw the lights out on the sea,
thought of the nights there in America,
but they were only the fishermen's lamps
and the white wash astern.
He felt the pain in the music
and stood up from the piano,
but when he saw the moon
emerging from a cloud,
death also seemed sweeter to him.
He looked the girl in the eyes,
those eyes as green as the sea.
Then suddenly a tear fell
and he believed he was drowning.
I love you very much,
very, very much, you know;
it is a chain by now
that heats the blood inside the veins,
you know...
The power of opera,
where every drama is a hoax;
with a little make-up and with mime
you can become someone else.
But two eyes that look at you,
so close and real,
make you forget the words,
confuse your thoughts,
so everything becomes small,
also the nights there in America.
You turn and see your life
through the white wash astern.
But, yes, it is life that ends
and he did not think much about it,
on the contrary, he already felt happy
and continued his song:
I love you very much,
very, very much, you know;
it is a chain by now
that heats the blood inside the veins,
you know...
It's a very poetic song, although trust me it sounds way better in italian, as it's meant to be heard, but it's nice to know what it means.
