Lotus Eaters - Set Me Apart
Whenever I hear indie pop in the style of China Crisis, Lotus Eaters, Microdisney, and the likes, I always think of it as a genre steeped in a mood and nuance that is entirely its own and has never returned.

Me 'nnammoro de te
I fall in love with you, otherwise what kind of life is it?
I do it a bit out of anger, a bit to not be alone
Like a man lost in the fog
Because he can’t even speak to the sky...

MR. G KNEW EVERYTHING ALREADY....

An overview of Gaber's production, between his prophecies/distopias that have sometimes come true in a disconcerting way and the lateral visions of all our lives, among daily habits and quirks, miseries and aspirations, the political and the personal. We take him from the beginning of the second part of his career, a time when he took his texts, both his own and those of Sandro Luporini, on endless theatrical tours throughout Italy, where the audience also participated as was common then, standing up and voicing their opinions, sometimes in open opposition to the artist who would respond, sometimes leaving the exchange worse off, other times not. Nowadays, it would be more likely to give him a like on Feisbucc or become one of his haters, as it seems that no one expresses anything in public anymore, limiting themselves to hiding behind a nickname or a pseudonym. I sometimes surprise myself asking what he would think about this or that issue; indeed, sometimes I would be curious to know, so...

Giorgio Gaber - Il potere dei più buoni

"... My everyday life is about worrying about what’s around me; I have an overwhelming passion for animals and the environment, I think about the increasingly rare vipers and also about respect for mosquitoes... In these such immoral times, I think about natural habitats, I think about the most important thing, which is to embrace plants..."

Grazie Roma (Live) Exciting, even though he doesn't hit the notes and the audience sings, at the time he wrote it he was still lucid.

Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Crossfade
Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Starbird
The wah wah on Crossfade is the same as Zappa's!
Starbird sounds like a mix between the choirs of Gentle Giant and the psych jazz rock made in the USA by Manfred.

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.
