It's not bad in itself, but it really suffers from some filler tracks thrown in just to pad it out (You never come back, Enough is enough, one with a rather banal text and the other fairly useless overall). However, there are some gems (Air, Well of Wishes, Together, It's Me) and the arrangements work perfectly. 3.5, I’ll see later whether to give it 3 stars or 4 stars (in the end I went for 4, I’d say that’s more accurate). more
In my head the calluses
That I should grate
I’d like to be GG Allin
I would have something to do more
I believe that Queen are perfect. more
We are at madness: a text that couldn't be more packed with metaphors and imagery, and an arrangement that hits the ears like a flashlight pointed at the eyes. Let's also count Lucio's falsetto, which can very well be a mockery of all of us. more
And I experienced this personally as well. I understood what the lyrics meant while I was being left for the umpteenth time; that obsession with being liked is so pointless, that phrase is damnably summarizing of the album and perhaps of my love life. more
The hardest piece to digest. I still haven't managed to understand the lyrics, so filled with imagery they are. But its arrangement is truly successful. more
The arrangement is the most original ever recorded throughout Lucio's career. It would be too easy to label the lyrics as romantic, since it talks about two people who keep themselves distant from others with their breath changing according to the trends (or at least that's what I see). more
It might just be me, but I don't fully understand it. Or rather, I've experienced it less than the others. Nonetheless, it remains a musically brilliant piece with lyrics that transport me in front of a figure that is both abstract and concrete. more
A ride that breaks all possible walls. And a text on the edge of a flashback (university). more
I personally experienced this. She, who loves philosophy and has a body to die for, and on the other side, me, the loser, not much into reading. But in the end, liking each other is so pointless. more
I know that to many this "song" doesn't mean much, but the fact remains that it's musically catchy. And anyway, I really like it a lot. more
One of the albums that convinces me the least by Fossati, still unripe and too "American," so to speak (starting with the horrible cover). However... here we also find spine-chilling tracks like "Il grano e la luna," "Where is paradise," and especially "Storie per farmi amare," so I can't give it less than 3.5. Then, with the next album "La casa del serpente," Ivano will start to show what he's made of. more
This album is THE perfection, there's not a single piece out of place. Its most successful work, simply extraordinary. more
Disturbing and sick character. I won't even say rest in peace because he might get mad... more
Musically speaking, for me it is his peak: an excellent album, arranged wonderfully. Eleven truly inspired tracks, and, 28 years later, still relevant, including "Tutto più chiaro che qui," "Bellamore," and "Sangue su sangue," and especially "Rumore di niente." Rating 4.5, almost 5. more
One of Ivano's best albums from the 2000s and earlier: an absolutely perfect album in every way with beautiful gems, among which stand out "C'è tempo", "Pane e coraggio", "Ombre e luce" but above all the wonderful "Il bacio sulla bocca". As far as I’m concerned, it’s in the top 5 of the most beautiful Italian singer-songwriter albums of the new millennium. more
After 14 years of pretty mediocre albums, Renatone finds the desire to get back up and gives us this excellent record. It doesn’t quite reach a full 5, but it's close. The next album will also have a handful of good songs, but after that, the gems will need to be sought out with a lantern... more
After 1981, they became the imitators of a homonymous good group. more
An essential album, the essence of Cream!!! more
Great debut of a superband more
