It's shameful that you can't even engage in a conversation with someone! You don't respect other people's opinions! If for you Albano is not a singer, that's your problem, not mine. Tastes are tastes. Learn to respect others, then you can talk. I won't waste time responding to someone who can't discuss without insulting. Learn to respect, shameful!!

SOFT CELL, JOY DIVISION, NEW YORK DOLLS, TWISTED SISTER, DEPECHE MODE, DURAN DURAN, TOTO, EVANESCENCE, INCUBUS, PRODIGY, PAUL YOUNG, JOHN LENNON, BEATLES, SPRINGSTEEN, MALMSTEEN, BLACK CROWES!...I have 213 CDs!

You say he’s not objectively good! We need to see what you mean by objectively good! So besides Marco, I listen to various things... I like VASCO ROSSI (more or less, I started listening to him 11 years ago), RENATO ZERO, MADONNA, LED ZEPPELIN, DEEP PURPLE, AEROSMITH, GUNS 'N ROSES, PIXIES, KRAFTWERK, DAVID BOWIE, MANIC STREET PREACHERS, HIM, LACUNA COIL, GIANNA NANNINI, JOHN FOXX, METALLICA, MOTLEY CRUE, MICHAEL JACKSON, BLACK SABBATH, AC/DC, ULTRAVOX, VIRGIN PRUNES, VISAGE, GENERATION X, POWER STATION, RAMONES, OZZY OSBOURNE, SIOUXSIE & THE BANSHEES, NICK DRAKE, SOD, DIO, GREEN DAY, TINA TURNER, QUEEN, R.E.M., ROD STEWART, PATTI SMITH.

FOR YOU, HE WON'T BE GOOD... if for you being a musician or a singer means copying a great from the past, we're in trouble! If you consider Marilyn Manson an artist because he tried to imitate someone, I don't think it's objectively fair to call him an artist... from what I know, having also talked to Marco at the gathering in Florence, Marco can't play the guitar, but he plays the piano really well. If you don't know things, keep quiet. Objectively, I find him to be a worthy singer, just like Renato Zero, just like Albano (who has a voice that’s terrifying!), even if the songs are very different from each other. I believe Marco is one of the few who doesn't copy artists. In fact, he's always been targeted because he's accused of bringing bad luck... if there are stupid people who still believe in this nonsense, the world will always get worse! You are free to say whatever you want; the reality will always remain the same!! bye

Adriano, Marco doesn’t remind me at all of my ex, in fact, don’t even touch on my ex who died in a car accident. Marco is not a plastic mannequin to me; if anything, it’s Manson, the plastic mannequin, given that he even resembles him since he’s disgustingly skinny! Marco has never thrown his guitar into the crowd and injured people who went to see him. He has no character; it’s enough to see the fact that he tried as hard as possible to resemble Bowie, who is a giant in music! So he’s never had character; otherwise, he would have created his own image, not a mix of images from other greats (not like him!) of music! And music isn’t objective for me; it’s subjective. If you want to say that Marco sucks, go ahead, I really don’t give a damn about what you say, that’s my opinion, plain and simple! MUSIC IS SUBJECTIVE!!!!!

ADRIANO I’m not ashamed to listen to him. Certain people should be ashamed to listen to certain crap that crumbles (Caparezza, Marilyn Manson, or certain bands that truly incite violence or suicide), but he never told anyone to commit suicide even if the lyrics were sad. MARCO HE’S A MAN and I believe that each of us, if we want respect, must also give it. I have nothing to be ashamed of. For some people, music is not just Led Zeppelin or Deep Purple; for example, I’ve never liked Gino Paoli, just like Mina and other Italian singers. For you, Deep Purple might be supreme music (and for me too, just like Led Zeppelin), but you can’t say that a certain kind of music sucks just because you don’t like it, or rather you can say it, but you can’t say it’s not music. Music is a matter of subjective taste. Bye.

Another thing: many define Masini as a depressed person, but that's not true: he is a bit melancholic, it's true, but that melancholy translates into reflection; he is not depressed at all. I had the pleasure of meeting him at last year's fan gathering in Florence, and I even chatted with him. He is a very sweet and sincere person! And he's cheerful too, if you want to know! Anyway, I will continue to support Marco and I hope that the idiots who call him a jinx think more with their brains than with their asses! I believe that those people who touch themselves when Marco is invited to some TV show should apologize because they have harmed the dignity of a PERSON, if they know what that means... Marco is a PERSON and should be treated with respect, just like people who are worse... no one is worth more than anyone else, so calling Marco an idiot means having absolutely no respect for a person...

Well, aside from the review which, in MY OPINION, shouldn't be considered a review, as a fan of Marco Masini (and I'm not ashamed of it at all!), I can say that this is a beautiful album, well done, with beautiful lyrics and melodies. Beyond the album, which some may not like just as they may not like the artist who created it, I believe that each of us has worth as a person, because we are HUMAN BEINGS.
BEING HUMAN means LIFE. I believe that the idiotic and mean opinions many people have about Marco are superficial. Calling Marco a jettatore or a portasfiga is, in my opinion, the worst thing a human being can do. To label anyone as a portamale is truly foolish... believing that bad luck exists is really dumb! I can tell you that on the Marco forum, which I happily belong to, there have been assholes who wrote offensive messages to Marco (they harmed the dignity of a person, you know?) even wishing him death. You may not like a singer, but wishing death or calling someone a loser or a jettatore is genuinely reprehensible. I repeat, I have the album and I'm happy to have bought it, along with the others. Tomorrow night, he will have a concert in Vicenza, and I will be more than happy to go and shout his songs with him!
