zigzag wanderer said:The Delgados released albums called "Domestiques" and "Peloton" - not sure about specific songs though.
clipperton said:can confirm there's no real cycling them in the music, though they're both still great albums. the band split over a perceived lack of recognition which seems a bit precious until you hear them - shoulda been huge.

Zam_Olyas said:Andrea Paglianti - Dove osano i Pirati
Sei partito in bicicletta tra le rose di un Hotel
verso cime senza tempo che aspettavan proprio te,
con il cuore di un bambino capriccioso e un po retrò
un bambino di Romagna che sgrana gli occhi e dice "e ciò"
Son finite le parole ti accompagna il nostro sguardo
mentre fili come un razzo dritto verso il tuo traguardo,
e le folle del passato siano intorno a te le ali
dell'affetto che è mancato quando eri fra i mortali
Ora scorrono i fiumi pieni di parole vane
era meglio qualche fatto quando eri solo come un cane,
e i ricordi si accavallano nell'arco di un momento
come tante bici al sole che arrancano nel vento
ma già sfrecci a testa bassa sopra il piede benedetto
di un San Pietro inferocito che ti apostrofa in dialetto
e ti urla oggi è chiuso, si riapre da domani
tu pedali e gli rispondi: 'fam pasè ca so Pantani'
E noi che siamo figuranti salutiamo te campione,
che hai saputo far sognare questa mia generazione
e ora via quella bandana con quei denti ben serrati
scatta questa ultima volta dove osano i pirati.
