Pavarotti and James Brown, 2002 - It's a Man's World

Electrifying interpretation of "It's A Man's World" by James Brown and Luciano Pavarotti. It was given at the 2002 edition of "Pavarotti and Friends" that the Italian tenor organized to support the UN refugee agency's program for Angolan refugees in Zambia. This was the third year out of the latest four that Pavarotti had made refugees the central focus of this annual event. The concert, was held in Modena, Italy, on Tuesday the 28th of May. A special choir of 30 Angolan refugee children, specially flown in from Zambia, and 30 Italian children also performed on stage.

========================================

This is a man's world, this is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl.

You see, man made the cars to take us over the road.
Man made the trains to carry heavy loads.
Man made electric light to take us out of the dark.
And man made the boat for the water, like my Bible said Noah made the ark.

This is a man's world.
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl.

L'uomo rincorre il potere ma...lui non sa
che il grande limite è l'essere,
come si porrà
nel palmo stringere un'idea,
che non vive che nella sua fantasia...volle,
se non si accorge che poi
nulla ha più senso se
si vive solo per sé.

*******
Man thinks about a little baby girl and a baby boy.
Man makes then happy 'cause man makes them toys.
And after man has made everything he can.
Man with liras, pesos, dollars, rubles, buy everything for a woman.

This is a man's world.
But it wouldn't be nothing, without a woman or a girl.

*******
Nulla ha più senso se
si vive solo per sé.

*******
He's lost in the wilderness.
He's lost in bitterness.

*******
Se non si accorge che poi
nulla ha più senso se
si vive solo per sé, solo per sé, solo per sé!

*******
This is a man's world!
