How come you didn't write it? Are you serious or joking?

The text above can have significant interpretations. 1) News broadcasts are awful. We already knew that objectively; it didn't take a written piece (however valuable) to confirm it. 2) We are in a "nation" governed by the supreme leader of a religious confession. Of course, some might say we face the same issue as point 1 and they're not entirely wrong, but there are many angles to explore on this matter. Here's one from me: the Pope influences Italy so much, something that has been happening for at least 1000 years. That's no small thing, and certainly not something to be taken for granted; then they say studying History is pointless. 3) The problem is the Chinese; they are everywhere and ruin everything. I'll make an economic provocation: they are ruthless, using every means to be more competitive and economically defeat everyone else. When we look at financial competition (which is often unfair), they are the best of all. So what are we complaining about? We complain because now we feel their presence... It's easy to exploit them for profit and then get indignant when they start doing their own thing. 4) There is a blatant hypocrisy related to economic utilitarianism and ideological convenience. This point is already more interesting. I wonder why South Africa denies the visa to the Dalai Lama... The discussion around Mugabe is interesting; it reminds me of another (which connects to point 3), but maybe I'm just making it up. If I'm not mistaken, the U.S. put a certain Saddam Hussein in power in Iraq because Iran under the Ayatollahs had allied with the Soviet Union. And for the same reason (anti-Soviet), they trained and armed a nice group of Afghan citizens, placing them under the guidance of a Saudi sheikh named Osama Bin Laden. And if I'm not mistaken, at a certain point, when the aforementioned gentlemen tried to be powerful and independent, they were attacked by the U.S. armed forces. In all this, I reflect and thank Isis (and then they say that those who are "older" than you are useless) for allowing it: isn't it true that we keep circling around the problem, focusing on bigger splinters and not on our own beam? Who knows. I have one certainty, actually two: the first is that if we try to look at the economic side of everything, especially those linked to politics, solutions are always found; the second is that certain events, seemingly distant, are interconnected like Dante's rhymes.

And where the hell did you fish these out from?

"the album that Aretha Franklin would have made if she had been Etta James", with this premise I will gladly procure it.

Great, then if you’re in the Milanese university scene (even though I find myself studying in the City Center) the pleasure of reading a text like this is even greater.

Ladies and Gentlemen, we have the heir of Korn. You're amazing!

As far as I'm concerned, the film is greatly enriched by the music of Yann Tiersen. It's no small merit. In any case, it remains highly enjoyable, but without that music it would lose some of its depth.

I don't know these, I'll make a note of them.

After "Lungo i Bordi," repeating themselves wasn't easy, but they managed to deliver a great album. Who knows if they will return with a new record or if this reunion will be limited to the live stage.
