"Fatti forza, è la vita sai, che ti sfida..."

How I loved this film!
This is a little tribute to the awesomeness that is Prince Dastan. Since apparently I can't download anything at the moment (no clue why) I wasn't able to get the whole Prince of Persia movie just yet, but I couldn't wait until it's out on DVD...so to make this video I downloaded as many trailers and featurettes as I could find. Sorry if the quality is not the best!
The song I used is Italian (for once! :D); I don't usually like Tiziano Ferro much, but I find this song very catchy and full of energy, it just fits Dastan in my opinion. I'm posting lyrics and translation below!

L'Olimpiade (The Olympic Games)

Grida! (Shout!)
Scatta forte la tua rabbia ed è cieca, lei non lo sa (Your anger aggressively explodes and it is blind, it doesn't know it)
Lei non sa quanto sei forte (It doesn't know how strong you are)
Però batti spesso il passo per l'afa che tirerà (But you often slow down because of the sultry weather that will come)
E se c'è tu non vai oltre (And if it's there, you won't go ahead)
Ma ripetiti ogni giorno: (But repeat to yourself every day)
"Faccio tutto quel che posso, (I'm doing everything I can)
sono un vero osso duro, asso grosso". (I am a really tough guy, a real ace)
Ti senti meglio adesso? (Are you feeling better now?)

Mettiti in forze e guarda su (Get in shape and look up)
E dacci dentro tu di più (And work harder)
Parte la tua gara più ardita (You're starting your most daring race)
La partita va giocata (The game must be played)
Con fatica infinita (With infinite effort)

[Chorus]
Fatti forza è la vita sai che ti sfida (Be strong; you know, it's life that's challenging you)
Ti invita a duellare con lei (It challenges you to a duel)
Forse vinci e mollerai (Perhaps you'll win and then give up)
Magari invece riderai (Maybe you'll laugh instead)
E sbagli e affoghi ma poi riuscirai (And you'll make mistakes and drown, but then you'll succeed)
In questa grande Olimpiade (In these great Olympic Games)
Di me, di te, dell'anima! (Of mine, of yours, of the soul!)

Salta! (Jump over!)
La distanza che separa i tuoi sogni dalla realtà (The distance between your dreams and reality)
Bruciala, sfreccia e va' ...sgomma! (Burn it, speed up and go...make the tyres screech!)
Passa a destra, occhio in curva si rischia, questo si sa (Keep to the right, and careful - turns are risky, it is known)
Molto facile il testacoda (It's really easy to spin right round)
Ma tu spingi l'acceleratore tutto fino in fondo (But you push on the accelerator all the way down)
Tu sei un vero osso duro, asso grosso (You are a really tough guy, a real ace)
Gas a più non posso, presto! (Gas fit to burst, quickly!)
E parti in quarta, adesso! (And speed away, now!)
[Chorus]
