About Luce (Tramonti a Nord Est)

"Luce (Tramonti a nord est)"("Light (Sunsets in the North-East)") is Italian singer-songwriter Elisa's most famous song, both in her home Italy and internationally, in its English version "Come Speak to Me". It also has a Spanish version called "Hablame", which has a slightly different arrangement. It was Elisa's first song in Italian, even though she had already released two albums in English. It was heard for the first time in the 2001 edition of the Sanremo Festival, winning first place, defeating the entry by the favorite Giorgia, as well as the critics' award and the radio and TV award; Elisa won the best singer award in that same event. The music was written by Elisa, as well as the English lyrics, which are actually the original lyrics. But to take part in Sanremo Festival, the lyrics had to be presented in Italian, so she asked for the help of rocker Zucchero. It is heavily influenced by Björk, with references to Peter Gabriel during the chorus bassline. The arrangement is one of the most complex and dazzling in all of Italian music. There is a vocal mantra which runs throughout the entire song.

Parlami, come il vento fra gli alberi
Parlami, come il cielo con la sua terra
Non ho difese ma
Ho scelto di essere libera
Adesso è la verità 
L'unica cosa che conta
Dimmi se farai qualcosa
Se mi stai sentendo
Avrai cura di tutto quello che ti ho dato
Dimmi

Siamo nella stessa lacrima, come un sole e una stella
Luce che cade dagli occhi, sui tramonti della mia terra
Su nuovi giorni

Ascoltami
Ora so piangere
So che ho bisogno di te
Non ho mai saputo fingere
Ti sento vicino
Il respiro non mente
In tanto dolore
Niente di sbagliato
Niente, niente

Siamo nella stessa lacrima, come un sole e una stella
Siamo luce che cade dagli occhi, sui tramonti della mia terra
Su nuovi giorni in una lacrima
Come un sole e una stella
Luce che cade dagli occhi, sui tramonti della mia terra, su nuovi giorni

Il sole mi parla di te (mi stai ascoltando, ora?)
La luna mi parla di te (avrà cura di tutto quello che mi hai dato)

Anche se dentro una lacrima, come un sole e una stella
Luce che cade dagli occhi, sui tramonti della mia terra
Su nuovi giorni, in una lacrima come un sole e una stella
Siamo luce che cade dagli occhi, sui tramonti della mia terra
Su nuovi giorni
Ascoltami 
Ascoltati
Ascoltami 
Ascoltami 
Ascoltami
Ascoltami 
Ascoltati

The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) (, ) is a commonly used analytical biochemistry assay, first described by Eva Engvall and Peter Perlmann in 1971.

ELISA has been used as a diagnostic tool in medicine, plant pathology, and biotechnology, as well as a quality control check in various industries. In the most simple form of an ELISA, antigens from the sample to be tested are attached to a surface. Then, a matching antibody is applied over the surface so it can bind the antigen. This antibody is linked to an enzyme and then any unbound antibodies are remov… more »
