A memory of one of the many times I saw him on stage, from the late seventies onwards.
A sad event, nonetheless.
March 12, 2000, Genoa, Teatro Carlo Felice.
Italian singers parade to pay tribute to Fabrizio de André, who had just passed away.
Battiato arrives on stage, disheveled, starts “Amore che vieni, amore che vai” with a thin voice, and after a couple of verses, he stops singing, crying, and leaves the stage.
That's it.
