Dear Norma, thank you for reading everything and I must say that after all I should have expected people to think in such an illogical way, in such an excessively stupid manner: that’s what Vasco teaches! Not giving a damn about everything and the meaning of it all because you can’t bring yourself to wait a moment longer to think things through. Like in this album, V.R.'s thoughts on the existence of God just because he has never seen Him, not caring whether others have felt His presence, or whether a COGLIONE died on a cross 2000 years ago thinking he was helping the world understand certain things. Congratulations to all of you and to Vasco for your brains and for the way you keep them in a jar for fear of ruining them! All your chatter IS JUST BUBBLES!!!!!!

I invite you to read again what I wrote in the "poem" above. Save the html page somewhere on your computer so you can read it even when you are not online.
It all starts from "I premetto di essere una persona con un bagaglio musicale non di quantità ma di qualità," written in gray. I admit I wanted to sound a bit cocky, but the fundamental concepts are true and clear, and I would like reasoned opinions on this, not comments like "frasco ti puzza il culo" or "sei un pallone gonfiato" without any justification.
I think I have been clear enough, and I would like the same clarity from those who respond to me.

I hope nonetheless that the MTV speech was understood: MTV promotes music, it is neither the music itself nor does it advertise the best music, but rather it seeks to monopolize the power of music, hiding bands and in some cases even genres (and this is not because they have little artistic value or because the band isn't good or because nobody likes them), it directs the masses' attention to the useless commercial music that is so convenient for MTV and the rest!
To give you an example: the METAL genre is one of the genres with the most bands (even in Italy!) and this means that it is definitely listened to and appreciated, musicians know how to play because to play metal you have to be good, moreover metal is NOT Satan or various nonsense (especially it is not Marilyn Manson!!!!), there are even various styles of metal (more or less aggressive, more or less symphonic) and despite all this, NO metal genre is shown on MTV. The same goes for radio stations, which follow the trends set by MTV.
I wonder why the most successful music is the one that MTV shows in its videos with stunning girls who shake their butt and act provocatively. According to you, does someone watching the video analyze the butts and breasts or the music?
And let me say more: you do not listen to what you like, but rather what you are told you like!!!!! CLEAR? And those who know even a little about unconscious psychic processes know what I am referring to; those who don’t... SHOULD SHUT UP, LISTEN, AND TRY TO UNDERSTAND!!!!! AND IF YOU DON’T KNOW, JUST ASK!

Hooray for those who do things without thinking! Hooray for those who do things by hearsay! Hooray for those who follow fashion! Hooray! Hooray!
And finally, to be convinced of being right without even knowing what it’s about!
But after all, art is for everyone! Music is not art, but it is for everyone; everyone understands it and everyone knows what art is. In art school, they tell jokes, since everyone is an artist and anyone can be an objective critic!

Whoever mentions Vasco, mentions damage, but Vasco generally gets very little of it.

As for the fact that Vasco uses his name as the name of the band, it is definitely not to give credit to the group, but solely to Vasco Rossi! You ask me what the names of Vasco's musicians are, or go around asking someone if they like Vasco and then ask them for the names of the band. If they had wanted to give equal merit to all band members, they would have chosen a much more abstract name, certainly not the name of one of the group members, don’t you think? Jimmy Hendrix had a band that had his name, but he wrote all the songs himself; the band was only there to play the songs, not to compose them! Furthermore, this guy, who does only this for a living, with a "GIFTED" DEGREE (while I have to earn mine) does things poorly as well. Tell me what this text means: "..and whoever says it’s easy, look here, a man is like this, if it were so simple I wouldn’t be like this. I don't want to give up, I won’t settle down, I won’t manage but I believe I will!" Yes, good job Vasco, "so" rhymes with "so" and the sentence full of negations is really the best that a DOCTOR OF THE ASS HOLE can do!

Oh, well, of course! Vasco can do whatever he wants; the important thing is not to give him the weight he's been given. It would be like saying that the painters of Venice (the ones who create hyper-realistic paintings) are great artists and therefore important to the history of art.
...But that's a 19th-century thought!!!!! It seems to me that "beauty" as an artistic form has been outdated for almost a hundred years! Clearly, modern art has very strange canons, but it certainly has them, and one does not become an artist simply because they are liked or liked more later; otherwise, we would all be artists!!! Great artists like Van Gogh or the Impressionists or so many others are not great because they are beautiful, but because they expressed innovative concepts of their time in an innovative way, with their own techniques.
Surely, at the start, they also took inspiration from other artists, but it was THEIR MIND that wanted to create what they created, and certainly, reusing an already established style would not have made them what they are: Artists. In conclusion, Vasco is not a great artist; he is a rock singer like many others, nothing more. He hasn't plagiarized anything if that's what you want to hear, but he uses things that have already been done for his success.
And finally, I accept that someone may not know about art just as one might not know about engineering, but as I clearly stated before, TALKING WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT is foolishness, so dear "duloz," since you respond with such confidence, tell me which groups, in your opinion, have bolstered the history of music. And say something sensible; otherwise, you're just proving to be a fool, and you can easily go screw yourself!

For those who don’t feel like reading the lengthy text, here’s the summary:
- Vasco is famous only because of the propaganda done by the media (even including the news broadcasts!)
- Music is Art! There can be non-artistic music just as there can be artisans, but certainly, one must not confuse this with true artists!
- Vasco is NOT an artist like most (almost the entirety) of Italian music.
- Italian music copies, in fact, it takes the foreign style (in the example of Vasco Rossi, hard rock – with AC/DC and Kiss being prime examples) and writes the lyrics in Italian, always following the themes chosen by foreign artists.
- I think Vasco Rossi only writes the lyrics of the songs and doesn’t compose the music, leaving that to the members of a band that, however, bears his name!!!
- Those who listen to Vasco generally do not have sufficient musical knowledge to distinguish what is artistic and what is not, as they solely rely on the promotional videos shown on MTV, thinking that MTV showcases true music (when it actually shows the best music videos, which are moreover not produced by the band, but by a company that makes videos, even though all the credit goes to the musician – because they usually aren’t artists).
I recommend you nonetheless take a look at what I’ve written because it’s very interesting, and I bet you hadn’t thought about many things before, and furthermore, I suggest you listen to GOOD MUSIC (for example Yes, Dream Theater, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, and others that currently don’t come to mind)…

Music is Art, put everything else aside.

Now I would like to say something to that passionate Vasco fan, SilverBlasco. Previously, Giorrrrrgio questioned some of Vasco's lyrics, claiming they didn't make sense. Since I can't mention them all, I'll give you a few examples from the "Odiatori di Vasco" forum, which can be found at Forum Soleluna - F.O.V.R.-FORUMISTI ODIATORI VASCO ROSSI
"e chi dice che è facile, guarda qui un uomo è così,
se fosse così semplice non sarei ridotto così.
Io non mi voglio arrendere non ci sto
tutto qui non ci riuscirò ma credo di sì!"
I would just like to know what kind of phrase that is? Or if you know an artistic side to it, let me know? But don't even dare to say that there is a rhyme because "così" doesn't rhyme with "così" since they are the same word, and placing "ma credo di sì" at the end of the phrase (thus rendering the phrase... to say the least ridiculous) to make it rhyme with the two "così" makes me feel two "così" frustrated!
And then there’s this line, from one of Vasco’s most famous songs and considered one of the most beautiful, and just from the lyrics I'm about to quote, you can tell it was written in the moment:
"E con la faccia pulita
cammini per strada mangiando una
mela coi libri di scuola.
Ti piace studiare
non te ne devi vergognare"
Eeeeeeeeeh? What? "Camminiammini per strada mangiando una mela coi libri di scuola"? But do the books taste like watermelon? Maybe he eats them with his eyes when he reads (ah, ah, so funny) but for the rest, what sense does such a phrase make? Couldn't he write "Camminiammini per strada coi libri di scuola mangiando una mela"? Now that makes sense! But no, that’s not how he wrote it! Besides, he didn’t have to take anything into account, because there are no rhymes! Mah! In my opinion, Vasco is the predecessor of all that nonsensical genre from the 85-90s! There, yes, then he is an artist!
And then I don’t understand why someone should be ashamed if they like studying. At most, they might be envious because others don't study and still manage, or they might feel stupid. Or they could feel embarrassed because others make jokes, but ashamed, no! Absolutely not! One feels ashamed when they know they have done something wrong, but in this case, it just doesn’t fit.
Well. Huge props for "Dottor Rossi": a degree, doing almost exclusively that for a living (writing lyrics, because he isn’t capable of music)... and that little he does, he even does poorly! Come on!!! Besides, if someone is in a band, my dear SilverBlasco, where the whole group works, not just the singer (who is primarily the "symbolic character" of the group), why should he name a band after himself instead of giving it a name like "I Vibratori" or "Litfrizza" or things like that? Since he only writes the lyrics and doesn't compose the music and thus considers himself an artist, couldn't he just be a poet instead of doing something that doesn’t suit him? Isn't it a bit megalomaniac to do what he has done? Isn't it foolish to follow a megalomaniac? Filling a place just because others go there isn’t stupid? Doing things without thinking isn’t stupid? Doing and thinking and speaking based on "what I've heard" like all those who listen to Vasco (because if there's a minimum of understanding of what music and art are, when you hear music, it’s as important as knowing what a bike is before you start riding it, and once you know what art is, you understand that Vasco Rossi is not an artist) isn’t it stupid? In short, to judge and give opinions without wanting to engage in a discussion, so much so that as soon as a serious conversation starts, your legs get cut out from under you because you don't know what you're saying or at least you know nothing about what is being discussed, and despite this, you believe you’re right, doesn't it mean being stupid?
If you really want to tell me you’re not stupid, prove it: tell me why everything I just said could mean being intellige
