Nice like that, as you wanted to prove. I mean, you throw out nonsense and I have to do the research! What world do you live in? You're the one who needs to prove what you say; that's typically how it works. Except when someone sees the Madonna. You're one of many who love to elevate themselves to the status of a great intellectual, someone who understands, but music is subjective. I asked you for sales data because you were the first one to cite success as one of your motivations, and then you also said that you can sell 10 million records overnight. Just things said for the sake of saying them, evidently. Just that you don't like it, and that's that. Is it really that hard? At ISIDE, I've been on this site for just over a week, and I've already taken you apart! It wasn’t difficult.

You don't understand, I want exactly what I asked for, precise and clear, enough with the generalizations Iside, either write serious and precise things or go to horse racing, after all, the government has now even allocated new funds. Or, do a nice thing, just say that you don't like it, and that's it. It's no problem if you don't like Alex Baroni, I've said that I’m not really on that wavelength either, but there's a difference between personal tastes and saying that someone isn't worth it. If you say they aren't worth it, you need to support it with concrete, objective, and non-contradictory data; otherwise, it's just your simple and small personal opinion, but then you have to say, I like it or I don't like it. I'm waiting for the data I asked for.

Yes, I want the list; they must have been more successful than him at his age when he died. I want the figures for records sold and how much money the record labels and producers invested in them. Of course, precise data with official sources. And obviously, artists of his same genre and from the same period. Because if you bring me Celentano or Morandi, that's too easy; back then, many more records were sold than now. I'm waiting.

According to your reasoning, if someone doesn't achieve mass success right away, they don't matter? Congratulations! You really know your stuff. Queen sold very little with their first album, and then over the years they became one of the most famous bands on the planet. Just to name one example.

Really? And I am Napoleon Bonaparte!

A ISIDE BEAUTIFUL, but damn, how much time did Baroni have to refine his style? It doesn't seem like much to me, and then the emotional aspect is very subjective; there are a ton of people to whom he has given emotions. If you don't like it, that's a different story—just say it and stop beating around the bush. It's not like someone gets up in the morning, makes an album, and sells 10 million copies, come on! Then GASOLIO, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU SAYING, just because he passed away should he improve? Who ever said that? If anything, the opposite could be true; he could have improved even more, given his inherent talent, had he not faced what he did. But damn, you guys are so harsh, and what the hell, it's like expecting a thesis from a freshman—give him some time, right? Unfortunately, he didn't have the time, and here are people judging him as if he had been doing mediocre stuff for 30-40 years. Damn, I like HARD ROCK, AC/DC; my mother says I listen to violent music, but compared to you, I feel like a saint.

and anyway, one without a name, it’s normal for him to make meaningless observations.
hello handsome, or whatever the hell your name is

You see dear, maybe you have some problems or you don't understand, or you're not Italian, I don't know. The ones you mentioned have never written lyrics that criticize their colleagues and their world; they are artists and entertainers, and they do just that, they make a lot of money, but they have the honesty and decency not to spit in the plate they eat from. I said he should go work in a factory because he expresses negative phrases about the music world, of which he himself is a part. As far as I know, neither Ramazzotti nor Pink Floyd have ever attacked their world and their colleagues in their song lyrics. That's why I tell him again, he should go do a nine-hour shift in a factory, not because this is the only thing he can do, but because he doesn't seem happy with that and with what he belongs to. Ramazzotti is a singer; his job is to entertain, he does it and has never complained about anything. He’s been lucky, maybe he will never admit it, but at least he has the honesty not to shoot down the whole world.
Now enough, though, because if you don’t understand, those are your problems. Go to school, if you work, look for some evening courses, I don’t know, but it’s not possible that someone has to explain things to you ten times, for goodness' sake! Luckily, I have plenty of patience. But now enough. Adios.

She wanted to see it, I told her, come on, let’s find a nice quiet spot with the car and make out a bit. No way, I hadn’t shaved and she got pissed off as usual, saying I scratch her face, as if I were made of sandpaper. The judgment of the movie is in the first half hour, then I fell asleep, I don't know, maybe it gets better after. Anyway, judging by the faces of the people at the end, I think a nice little nap was indeed the best choice.

Look, I like rock, but I recognize quality when I see it, and Alex Baroni had a truly great voice. I would never buy one of his CDs, just due to my personal tastes, but I respect those who like him. ISIDE, I don’t agree, you’re making comparisons that don’t work. He didn’t have much time to establish himself, and he doesn’t have a large repertoire because he left us too soon, but I’m sure the talents he had went beyond just his voice. What do Baglioni and Battiato, who have been recording for 30 years, have to do with this?
