I don't know if they are really "Tutti qui", but I know that all the pieces without which, looking back, I wouldn't recognize the path nor could I be the person I am, are all here.
Claudio Baglioni
With this premise, I open the review of "Tutti qui", a collection from 1967 to 2005, an album that celebrates the career of the great and celestial Claudio Baglioni.
Who hasn't sung at least once in their life one of the 44 pieces of history contained in these 3 CDs?
The first CD features hits like "Signora Lia" and "Porta Portese".
Special mention goes to the song of the century, probably the most beautiful love song ever written in Italy "Questo piccolo grande amore". It's impossible to forget the splendid "Amore bello", "E tu", "Poster". Who has never sung one of these songs around a summer campfire?
Of course, these are only the most famous songs, but the others are certainly not lacking.
The second CD starts with the poignant "E tu come stai" or the energetic "Via".
Track No. 4 is another flagship song of Claudio Baglioni "Strada facendo", a song whose success shows no sign of waning.
In this second CD, we also find the touching "I vecchi" and "Avrai". I repeat, the mention is only for the most "known" songs, but the others are no less moving.
The third disc opens with the splendid and indestructible "Mille giorni di te e di me", which is absolutely Claudio's favorite song, reaching the more recent hits like "Cuori di aliante" or the magnificent "Mai più come te".
Finally, it closes with the unreleased "Tutti qui", marking the end of this "musical summary" of an artist whose success shows no sign of waning but is instead increasing. We can only thank Claudio for these pieces of Italian music history, which make us feel millions of emotions simultaneously. Claudio's voice always so beautiful, especially live where he gives his heart at every concert.
Thank you, Claudio, and remember we will always be "Tutti qui" to acclaim you and be moved.
Thank you, Claudio, poet of our lives.
