Mom, you've hit rock bottom with this one :) But you, who want to be a philologist... do you need a ticket to go watch car crashes along the river?

But you know I was just thinking about that? That "SorriSIII" is fabulously expressive. And that sudden DOOOlce?

For the joy of true degregorian fans, the beautiful lyrics of one of the finest songs of the Italian creation: Today, a rainy day, but the people are calm,/ I am a child of the people./ Take my hand, give it to me,/ let’s try to come together,/ your pass has expired./ Thank you for the invitation, yes/ tonight I don't feel like/ seeing the traffic accidents/ along the river./ Today a rainy day, but the people are moving,/ I am a child of the rain./ The party was magical,/ the girls danced,/ they covered me with praise and smiles./ Next Christmas Eve,/ we will all have given birth,/ we can have another one by then./ Sometimes you might have me with a flower,/ sometimes a flower won’t be enough for you./ Sometimes you’ll think you’ve locked me in a room./ Give me your keys, sweet/ I want to make a copy,/ I want to write a long poem / for your arms.

A modern guide to a perfect suicide, that's how to define this album, following in the footsteps of "Il caprone" and "Alice non lo sa," submerged in grim lo-fi over a sparse guitar. It's no coincidence that De André fell in love with Gregori's work right after hearing this album: the arrangements are almost the same as those in De André's "Non al denaro," just to name one of his records. The lyrics are abhorrent, paradoxical in their mute sorrow. They have quality, even though I prefer the "quieter" De Gregori of Rimmel.

What happened, my friend? Did you get yourself mother-of-pearl as usual and are you feeling joyful? The effect will fade, you know.

You're right, Hanta_, let's call it a casual "ché." I was just thinking about it. But now, as slang, anything goes, even without an accent.

boring effect... I made a concordance ad sensum, let's be careful since we were talking about ungrammatical writing... :D

Oh, the issue of the writing style of the sfascione is also quite interesting. Personally, I see half-truths all over the place; generally, the line is, in my opinion, that Pilates-like one: those who want to read, read; those who don't want to, show indifference. It is undeniable that, as Holden says, the effect of the abundance of parentheses can be rather boring, so his opinion is quite understandable, but equally Zazà is right when he praises the amusement that er carrozza interprets excellently. So, very respectable opinions. I say that the scarrozzatore is at least an original type, honest in admitting that his writing is ungrammatical, slightly afflicted by a false modesty when he calls his writing "misero": it is baroque, sometimes filled with lofty terms, not so miserable as one might want to believe, of course. Let’s just say that mediating the ungrammatical muckiness of the writing and the lofty gurgling of the form produces a rococo that is a bit kitsch here and there. Yes, yes, I've decided: rococo it shall be. :)

But all of this is absolutely fascinating! And above all, as it proves my ignorance on the matter, we're talking about some incredibly exciting niche stuff. Well done, you little rascal!

Exactly, ajè, especially in music, our inspiration has waned: the quality of what he writes is still good, despite his age. Regarding the issue of politicization, the situation is this: De Gregori has always been a committed songwriter. But look at the difference between yesterday and today: in '75 he spoke of politics through "Pablo," "Le storie di ieri," and "Il signor Hood" with disenchanted images, "the child looking at the wall and examining his hands," the vineyard to cultivate, the "basket of new words," and so on; today to talk about politics he uses a work like "Il fischio del vapore," which is, among other things, also somewhat polite at points, but obviously too contrived to find anything sincere and disenchanted in it: in short, the difference is at least remarkable.
