Lucio Battisti

Hegel Abraham

 "'Hegel' is the simple combination of the monstrosity of words borne aloft without rest but with enormous grace by Pasquale Panella and Battisti’s appropriate melodies, never so appropriate indeed."

 "'Hegel' is a magnificent mockery, the ultimate mockery, the disinterested farewell of Battisti. Electronics, heart, mind, and Panella."

 Dive into Lucio Battisti's 'Hegel'—experience the unique blend of poetic lyrics and electronic melodies that define this timeless album.

Lucio Battisti

Hegel Darius

 Hegel, 1994, was the last roar of a man who preferred the semi-anonymity, isolation, press silence, sequence of white covers, low chart achievements, and the bloody crusade of infuriated critics and early pro-Battistians who were disappointed.

 The album marries surreal, hermetic, extremely complex texts with diverse and composite sounds, not simply reducible to a vacuous and sterile digression of europop and synth-pop as claimed by many exegetes.

 Dive into Lucio Battisti's 'Hegel'—experience the provocative fusion of philosophy and electronic music that defined his groundbreaking final chapter.

Lucio Battisti

Hegel GianlucaGT

 Lucio Battisti and Pasquale Panella indulge in conjectural reasonings that arbitrarily wander in the fragility of the human psyche.

 Everything is enclosed within the soul: emotion, suffering, joy. Everything sealed hermetically.

 Dive into the deep and enigmatic world of Lucio Battisti's Hegel – listen and experience a truly unique sonic journey.

Lucio Battisti

Hegel Battisti

 Panella himself said in an interview that only those who have been to high school can understand Hegel, while if someone listening to the album is an idiot, they will admit that whoever wrote the lyrics wrote nonsense.

 "Hegel" is, therefore, Battisti's testament... a last attempt at musical freedom by the artist.

 Discover the enigmatic beauty of Lucio Battisti's final album Hegel – listen now and experience its avant-garde fusion of philosophy and sound.

    I know that to many this "song" doesn't mean much, but the fact remains that it's musically catchy. And anyway, I really like it a lot.

Ricordo il suo bel nome: Hegel Tubinga
ed io avrei masticato
la sua tuta da ginnastica.

    I personally experienced this. She, who loves philosophy and has a body to die for, and on the other side, me, the loser, not much into reading. But in the end, liking each other is so pointless.

    A ride that breaks all possible walls. And a text on the edge of a flashback (university).

    It might just be me, but I don't fully understand it. Or rather, I've experienced it less than the others. Nonetheless, it remains a musically brilliant piece with lyrics that transport me in front of a figure that is both abstract and concrete.

    The arrangement is the most original ever recorded throughout Lucio's career. It would be too easy to label the lyrics as romantic, since it talks about two people who keep themselves distant from others with their breath changing according to the trends (or at least that's what I see).

    The hardest piece to digest. I still haven't managed to understand the lyrics, so filled with imagery they are. But its arrangement is truly successful.
     
Estetica (05:11)
È successo quello che doveva succedere.
Ci siamo addormentati, perché è venuto il sonno
a fare il nostro periodico ritratto.

    And I experienced this personally as well. I understood what the lyrics meant while I was being left for the umpteenth time; that obsession with being liked is so pointless, that phrase is damnably summarizing of the album and perhaps of my love life.

    We are at madness: a text that couldn't be more packed with metaphors and imagery, and an arrangement that hits the ears like a flashlight pointed at the eyes. Let's also count Lucio's falsetto, which can very well be a mockery of all of us.
     

You and Hegel

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.
