Cosa farò da grande It’s not the most beautiful song by Gino Paoli, but it is THE SONG OF GINO PAOLI. We can define it as his personal rosary (like Pregherò by Celentano) or his programmatic manifesto. Unlike Paoli, the Molleggiato masked his introverted narcissism (a common trait between the two) and his sense of superiority through an ode to the Lord. As Scanzi will assert (whom I consider a terrible journalist and an idiot), in this case rightly, that Celentano doesn’t believe in God selflessly, but through God believes in himself. Paoli, on the other hand, will be more explicit: "if Christ were alive I wouldn’t see him here, but I don't behave badly, I run as an independent." It’s the story of a man who has reinvented himself great for the second time, who chose to reverse the course of fate in his own way, closing in on himself and preparing for his artistic reincarnation. You see, guys, because this gentleman from Genoa won’t be as cultured as Faber, won’t have the poetic lines of Guccini, won’t have the musical preparation of Fossati, but the way he draws you into his songs is unmatched. The way he enunciates the choruses makes clear how much life is in that song ("I run as an independent sempreeee). Alright, I’ve been like Sandro Curzi, but for Ginone, this and more.
