Da gennaio 2019 è in rotazione televisiva lo spot del nuovo iPhone XR battezzato “Fiumi di colore”, una originale campagna che vede centinaia di uomini con tute colorate che corrono all’impazzata.
Vai direttamente al titolo della canzone
Ma qual è il titolo della coinvolgente canzone protagonista della pubblicità? Ve lo dico appena dopo il video.
Come Along (qui il testo) ed è di Cosmo Sheldrake, polistrumentista, musicista, compositore e produttore londinese. Scritto dallo stesso Sheldrake e prodotto con la collaborazione di Matthew Herbert, il brano è stato rilasciato il 12 ottobre 2017 nella versione Edit.
Questa versione non è tuttavia rientrata nella tracklist del debut album The Much Much How How and I, uscito il 6 aprile 2018, che in scaletta includeva una versione di questo pezzo più lunghetta.

[Verse 1]
Come along, catch a Heffalump,
Sit with me on a muddy clump
We’ll sing a song of days gone by
Run along now, don’t be glum
Get you gone, now, have some fun
Don’t be long, for the end is nigh
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Don’t let moments pass along
And waste before your eyes;
March with me and the borogoves
Come with me and the slithy toves
And never ask us why
[Chorus]
Come, come, come, come, come along now
Run away from the hum-drum
We’ll go to a place that is safe from
Greed, anger and boredom
We’ll dance and sing till sundown
And feast with abandon
We’ll sleep when the morning comes
And we’ll rise by the sound of the birdsongs
[Bridge]
We’ll be here when the world slows down
And the sunbeams fade away
Keeping time by a pendulum
As the fabric starts to fray
There’s no such thing as time to kill
Nor time to throw away
So, once for the bright sky, twice for the pig sty
Thrice for another day
[Chorus]
Come, come, come, come, come along now
Run away from the hum-drum
We’ll go to a place that is safe from
Greed, anger and boredom
We’ll dance and sing till sundown
And feast with abandon
We’ll sleep when the morning comes
And we’ll rise by the sound of the birdsongs
[Verse 2]
Come with me, catch a rare type specimen
Cuddle up with a hesitant skeleton
We’ll break our fast with friends
Once we’re fed, we shall disappear rapidly
Many moons to the west of here and happily
Our journey never ends
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Shut your ears when sirens sing,
Tie armbands to your feet;
Listen up and you won’t go wrong again
Float along on a verse-less song and then
Get to where the two ends meet
[Chorus]
Come, come, come, come, come along now
Run away from the hum-drum
We’ll go to a place that is safe from
Greed, anger and boredom
We’ll dance and sing till sundown
And feast with abandon
We’ll sleep when the morning comes
And we’ll rise by the sound of the birdsongs
