A Billboard lançou nesta semana a lista definitiva com as dez turnês mais lucrativas do ano de 2006. Confira quem são os artistas que voltaram para casa com os bolsos pesados de tanto dinheiro:
THE ROLLING STONES (US$437 milhões)
MADONNA (US$195 milhões)
BON JOVI (US$131 milhões)
U2 (US$96 milhões)
TIM MCGRAW/FAITH HILL (US$88.8 milhões)
CIRQUE DU SOLEIL (US$78.5 milhões)
BARBRA STREISAND (US$76 milhões)
KENNY CHESNEY (US$66 milhões)
DAVE MATTHEWS BAND (US$58 milhões)
AEROSMITH (US$58 milhões)
O ranking tem como base os números compilados no período de tempo compreendido entre o dia 16 de novembro de 2005 e o dia 14 de novembro de 2006.
Detalhe pra diferença entre os Stones e Madonna. É mais que o dobro do faturamento. Eu tive a oportunidade de ver duas dessas turnês (Stones e U2) e posso atestar que valem o quanto faturam.
E porque hoje é segunda-feira, a música não poderia ser outra.
I Don´T Like Mondays
Bob Geldof
The silicon chip inside her head
Gets switched to overload.
And nobody's gonna go to school today,
She's going to make them stay at home.
And daddy doesn't understand it,
He always said she was as good as gold.
And he can see no reason
'Cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need to be shown?
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
I want to shoot
The whole day down.
The telex machine is kept so clean
As it types to a waiting world.
And mother feels so shocked,
Father's world is rocked,
And their thoughts turn to
Their own little girl.
Sweet 16 ain't so peachy keen,
No, it ain't so neat to admit defeat.
They can see no reasons
'Cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need to be shown?
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
I want to shoot
The whole day down.
All the playing's stopped in the playground now
She wants to play with her toys a while.
And school's out early and soon we'll be learning
And the lesson today is how to die.
And then the bullhorn crackles,
And the captain crackles,
With the problems and the how's and why's.
And he can see no reasons
'Cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need to die?
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
I want to shoot
The whole day down.
