Marco Masini
Raccontami Di Te

Driven by the song that gives the album its title, also presented at the San Remo festival, "Raccontami Di Te" is an album with a thousand artistic and sentimental facets. Like all the albums following "Cielo Della Vergine," this is considered by the people, and especially by critics, as an album without value, without too many pretensions.

Well, in my opinion, this album is very important in the history of Italian music, even if little known, it is appreciated. The album indeed begins with "Raccontami Di Te", a song that is initially calm, then turbulent and shouted by Marco at the end, which talks about the future of a girl who distanced herself from him, but who would have shared very beautiful joys with him if she had not drifted away. The second track, "Protagonista" is an important song, because it is a venting of Masini against everything that afflicts him in the world of entertainment and music, in fact, he wants to be the "protagonist of this breathless present moment," in pure "Vaffanculo" style.
"Parlo di noi" and "A 200 all'ora" are the worst songs of the album, where overly forced rhythms and banal lyrics come together. But from track 4 to 10 there are only exceptional songs, and this is precisely the beauty of the album, reaching its peak in the beautiful "Il giorno di Natale" based precisely on the world's problems and the hope that it reconciles all the people who inhabit the world. In this piece, everything is very beautiful from the rhythm to the lyrics.

Then there's "Abbracciami" which praises love and affection, "Qualcosa Di Più" which talks about the singer's love for life, as does "Ancora vita è", but also "Se Potessi Rinascere" which represents man's desire to be able to be reborn "to suddenly stop the reality that does not stop offending this useless and dirty truth", then ending with a sweet and rhythmic song "10 anni", a journey in the singer's life that always emphasizes the love that drives him to sing "I'll sing from city to city always following your eyes that will recognize".

I therefore recommend you buy this fascinating album with excellent content of all kinds, and above all forget what for most of you is the figure of Marco Masini, because he, like everyone, is a lover of life, and it is not said that he brings "bad luck" for this.
