"'Cercami nel cuore della gente' is a mature album, refined in classical-style music, and also in its lyrics, which reflect, among other things, Albano's great faith and his attachment to the land where he was born. THERE IS NO NEED TO ADD ANYTHING MORE TO A CRAP LIKE THIS....
'Nel perdono', written by Renato Zero, is a tribute to Italian music: angelic, composed of short verses with the same interval, and Albano sings freely (since he no longer has to keep pace with Romina Power) and can chase after legends like Cocciante or Ranieri, especially in the chorus with a background of choirs that share the task with strings and piano.
'C'est la vie' is a beautiful rhymed song, always classical in style, but also containing electric guitar; the sound is lively and sparkling, the lyrics poetic and sentimental sealed by beautiful high notes; just like 'E se tornerà', which expresses his faith, set against a funk background, and featuring a beautiful high-pitched refrain addressed to Jesus: 'E nei campi biono cresce il grrano, pane fresco ancora si farà, se nel mondo torna, io da uomo aspetto, e del vino in fresco gli terrò. Nelle mani preghiere non ne ho, forse il tempo non ne ho avuto mai, ma anch'io ho scavato nel suo giardino, e la fronte lui mi asciugherà.'
It follows a more reflective, nostalgic, and autobiographical song: 'Coraggio e vai', with a parade-like background, various choirs, and always classical arrangements; I particularly liked these verses: 'Quant'è costato al cuore l'antico errore, che scambia la bellezza per amore,' where Albano's accent stands out, making his voice unique. The next song has a groovy rock intro; indeed, although it is slow, the lines of the voice express love and resentment towards a woman, who should be Romina, according to the statements. The sentimental atmosphere fades away to leave space again for the Christian poetry of 'Roma, 2 Aprile, 2005', dedicated to Giovanni Paolo II, with very beautiful and touching lyrics. The following song is 'I fiori del tempo', always focused on the past and history; the background changes to become very sweet thanks to strings and woodwinds that carry the melody similar to a lullaby.
The album then continues with equally beautiful and diverse songs, until 'Ave Maria', which closes the album slowly and gently, and again, touchingly.
Personally, I consider this album as the definitive recognition of this artist, without adding anything more."
