La canzone di Mario Odyssey è spettacolare: non solo adoro lo stile meravigliosamente anni '50, ma è anche il testo ad avermi colpito nel cuore, con tutti i simbolismi e riferimenti che contiene. Il fatto che sia proprio Pauline a cantarla, poi, rende tutto ancora più bello
Ho unito i due trailer e la canzone completa in un unico video, aggiungendo il testo. E niente: let's do the Odyssey.
Here we go, off the rails
Don't you know it's time to raise our sails?
It's freedom like you never knew
Don't need bags or a pass,
Say the word, I'll be there in a flash
You could say my hat is off to you
Oh, we can zoom all the way to the moon,
From this great wide wacky world,
Jump with me, grab coins with me, oh yeah!
It's time to jump up in the air, (jump up in the air),
Jump up, don't be scared, (jump up, don't be scared),
Jump up and your cares will soar away, (oohooh),
And if the dark clouds start to swirl,
Don't fear, don't shed a tear, 'cause
I'll be your 1-Up Girl
So let's all jump up super high, (jump up super high),
High up in the sky, (high up in the sky),
There's no power-up like dancing,
You know that you're my Super Star, (you're my Super Star)
No one else can take me this far
I'm flipping the switch,
Get ready for this, so
Let's do the Odyssey
Odyssey, ya see (x7),
Odyssey, Odyssey!
Spin the wheel, take a chance
Every journey starts a new romance
A new world's calling out to you
Take a turn, off the path
Find a new addition to the cast,
You know that any captain needs a crew
Take it in stride as you move, side to side,
They're just different points of view
Jump with me, grab coins with me, Oh yeah!
Come on and jump up in the air, (jump up in the air),
Jump without a care, (jump without a care),
Jump up 'cause you know that I'll be there
And if you find you're short on joy,
Don't fret, just don't forget that
You're still our 1-Up Boy
So go on, straighten out your cap, (straighten out your cap),
Let your toes begin to tap, (toes begin to tap),
This rhythm is a power shroom (oohoohooh)
Jump on it, you're the Super Star (you're the Super Star)
No one else can make it this far
Put a comb through that 'stache,
Now you've got panache, ooooh,
Let's do the Odyssey!
It's time to jump up in the air, (jump up in the air),
Jump up, don't be scared, (jump up don't be scared),
Jump up and your cares will soar away, (oohoohooh),
And if the dark clouds start to swirl, (dark clouds start to swirl),
Don't fear, don't shed a tear 'cause
I'll be your 1-Up Girl
Now listen all you boys and girls, (all you boys and girls),
All around the world, (all around the world),
Don't be afraid to get up and move
You know that we're all Super Stars, (we're all Super Stars)
We're the ones who've made it this far
Put a smile on that face,
There's no time to waste, so
Let's do the Odyssey!
