Oh well, so the "1s" come automatically to you. Are you guys playing or just hanging around here?

Nice-nice, but the review could have been better, huh. First of all, one song doesn’t make an album, not even if it’s Stairway To Heaven, then how would it be, after track number 1, it immediately begins with "the central part" of the album? But... did you kiss the frogs before writing? :)

Ahahah, Cacche up here considers Tiziano Ferro a phenomenon and shits on Le Vibrazioni. Tiziano Ferro is probably better than what some think, but still nothing special. And if we turn it into a matter of "understanding RnB," well, someone who understands RnB listens to Tiziano Ferro uhahahahhhahhhah, for sure. Pleaseeee.

I forgot to mention that I liked Respiro also because I find Sarcina's interpretation to be more understated than usual.

I had listened to their first album and I didn't like it at all. Then I heard a few other singles, but they never managed to impress me. I have always found Sarcina's singing style (perhaps inspired by Bellamy's style) somewhat unbearable. This time, however, I have to admit that Respiro won me over; I think it's a really nice mainstream ballad, like the ones you haven't heard on the radio for a few months, since I'm Outta Time by Oasis, I'd say (I don't like The Temper Trap). The melody is not very original, but it has a nice mood, a cute lyric, and a fitting arrangement. In short, I think I will listen to Le Strade Del Tempo, hoping that it won't be the classic Italian pop-rock album, with three decent songs and fillers all around.

Yo La Tengo Popular Songs

For example, you can see 4 stars given to Hooray For Boobies or even 5 stars to Sussidiario dei Baustelle! Here, practically, anyone who appreciates the album they're reviewing gives it a 4, while a 3 sometimes feels almost negative, often given by someone reviewing a record from a band they love that has released a somewhat disappointing album. Ratings are always given with the perspective of promoting the album, and Popular Songs deserves a bit of publicity. As I read on indieforbunnies, "Yo La Tengo have spoiled us so much that now we consider a beautiful album like this to be little." That said, long live the seal :).

No guys, Pupo is human garbage, I mean Ruggeri may be annoying, but Pupo is pure human feces.

The broadcasts he has hosted are more or less terrible, but that doesn't mean he can't write songs anymore. A great singer-songwriter, a bit washed-up, but he always deserves a listen. Sure, he may have made a bit of a fool of himself on TV, but in his music career, he has consistently shown commendable coherence and self-referentiality. Moreover, in a TV environment where verbal brawls are all the rage, I must say his polite style is pleasant, but well... the content of the programs is what it is.

Damn, is the review already out? I want to listen to it; I'll get around to it eventually. Above me, some of the usual web-frustrated-dullards' comments who haven't even listened to the album.

Cesare Cremonini Il Primo Bacio Sulla Luna

Rating 2.5.
Cesare Cremonini has grown, this doesn’t mean he has become a great artist, but well, he manages to put out some good songs. The album as a whole is mediocre, pleasant if the expectations are low. Positive signs for the future, but he still needs to mature.
