He was just a friend of mine
I'd run into from time to time
Long before he moved away
We used to share a taste for wine
Still I never knew that he was sad back then
He said the time had come for him to take a holiday
And he says it's brilliant there
There's something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He's on the beach
I know he's changed somehow
He sends those postcards now
I'm not sure where he is
But he's out of reach
When he called me up one day
And said that he was going away
I thought he meant a week in France
And not twelve thousand miles to Sydney Bay
Still he had to take his chances
He said the time had come for him to make a move away
And he says it's brilliant there
There's something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He's on the beach
I know he's changed somehow
He writes those postcards now
He's on his own again
And he's out of reach
(my baby gets it on the beach)
And I don't blame him
Leaving was the best thing he could do
He longed for changes
I just hope he's happy
When he does the things he thinks he has to do
And he tries, and he tries
Yes he tries but he's a little bit hard on himself
Somehow he's trying to be someone else
And he says, he says, he says it's brilliant there
There's something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He's on the beach
I know he's changed somehow
It's in his postcards now
He's on his own again
So far out of reach
And he says it's brilliant there
There's something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He's on the beach
I know he's changed somehow
It's in his postcards now
He's in Australia
So far out of reach
And he says it's brilliant there
For the 1995 BBC Sessions version, the lyrics are slightly altered (not radically)
He was just a friend of mine
I'd run into from time to time
Long before he moved away
We used to share a taste for wine
Still I never knew that he was sad back then
He said the time had come for him to make a move away
And he says it's brilliant there
There's something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He's on the beach
I know he's changed somehow
It's in his postcards now
I'm not sure where he is
But he's out of reach
When he called me up one day
And said that he was going away
I thought he meant a week in France
And not twelve thousand miles to Sydney Bay
Still he had to take his chances
He said the time had come for him to make a move away
And he says it's brilliant there
There's something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He's on the beach
I know he's changed somehow
It's in his postcards now
I'm not sure where he is
But he's out of reach
And I don't blame him
Leaving was the best thing he could do
He longed for changes
I just hope he's happy
When he does the things he thinks he has to do
And he tries, yes he tries
Yes he tries but he's a little bit hard on himself
I think he's trying to be someone else
And he says, he says, he says it's brilliant there
There's something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He's on the beach
I know he's changed somehow
It's in his postcards now
I'm not sure where he is
But he's out of reach
And he says it's brilliant there
There's something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He's on the beach
I know he's changed somehow
He write those postcards now
He's in Australia
So far out of reach
And he says it's brilliant there
Fatalità, sfortuna e anche un pizzico di mistero avvolgono le storie di alcuni famosi personaggi accomunati da un tragico destino.
Il comparto sonoro è uno degli elementi più importanti ma meno notati nel mondo del videogioco. Una colonna sonora azzeccata trasforma un'azione semplice in un momento indimenticabile, guida la concentrazione e crea un legame emotivo con lo schermo. Dai primi bip elettronici degli anni Settanta fino alle composizioni orchestrali contemporanee, il suono ha smesso di essere un semplice contorno per diventare un motore d'immersione fondamentale in qualsiasi software interattivo.

Volare è una delle aspirazioni più antiche dell'essere umano. Prima ancora che la tecnologia rendesse possibile attraversare il cielo, il volo rappresentava già la libertà, il superamento dei limiti e la possibilità di osservare il mondo da una prospettiva diversa. Nel corso dei secoli, questo desiderio ha trovato spazio nei miti, nella letteratura, nel cinema, nei giochi e, soprattutto, nella musica. Dal mito greco di Icaro ai disegni delle macchine volanti di Leonardo da Vinci, l'uomo ha sempre provato a trasformare il cielo in un luogo da raggiungere. Il volo, però, non è soltanto un movimento fisico: è anche una potente metafora della fantasia, dell'amore, del successo e della fuga dalla quotidianità.
