THE REVIEW
"Il Bell'addio" is an unreleased track by our Lucio, it is presumed to be a leftover from the 1988 album "l'apparenza" with cryptic lyrics by the poet Pasquale Panella, and set to music by our Lucio. "Everything is ready, everything is in its place, you come in and ask what day is it, I say August 10th, what time is it? 06:00, we are on velvet on three trays!! " What could it mean??? The track is very rhythmic, but from the first notes, you can tell that "unfortunately it is a leftover". A positive note is the drums, Lucio's voice seems tired, I have doubts that it is from '88 and if it was a last piece before his end??? Anyway, this track is worth listening to, it's a shame that it was discarded!!!

Summary by Bot
Il Bell'addio is an unreleased Lucio Battisti track likely from his 1988 album leftovers. The rhythmic beat and poetic, cryptic lyrics stand out despite Battisti's tired vocal delivery. Though considered a leftover, its unique style makes it worth listening. The review reflects on the lyrical mystery and the song's place in Battisti's late works.
Lucio Battisti
Lucio Battisti (1943–1998) was an Italian singer, composer and producer from Poggio Bustone. He rose to prominence in the late 1960s and 1970s with lyricist Mogol, crafting many of Italy’s most beloved songs, and later pursued a radical electronic and linguistic shift with Pasquale Panella (1986–1994). From 1980 onward he withdrew from concerts, TV and interviews, insisting the art should speak for the artist.104 Reviews
