Sunday Song – Cesare Cremonini – Dicono di Me – They Chatter About Me

 

Cesare Cremonini  was born on March 27th 1980 in Bologna and since 2002 has pursued a career as a soloist singer songwriter.  Prior to that date he was the leader of a group Lunapop between 1999 and 2002 when it disbanded. At the time it was very popular winning awards as Italy's best band, best album, and best newcomer in 2000.

One of his more popular songs which I often hear on the radio is  ‘Dicono di Me’ released in 2008 as a track on the album

IL PRIMO BACIO SULLA LUNA – First Kiss on the Moon
2008 – CD

DICONO DI ME
Cesare Cremonini

Dicono di me,
che sono un bastardo, bugiardo e lo fanno senza un perchè...
Dicono di me,
che sono una strega drogata e truccata e piena di sè...
E dicono di me,
che sono una stupida frase da dire davanti a un caffè...
E invece no, nessuno sa.
E invece no, nessuno sa.
Che avrei soltanto l'amore per lei...
Per lei che ha il nome di un fiore, per lei...
Per lei..
Dicono di me,
che sono una stupida frase da dire davanti a un caffè...
Dicono di me,
che sono un serpente con ali da diavolo e un cuore da re...
Ecco perchè, nessuno sa.
Ecco perchè, nessuno sa.
Ecco perchè, nessuno sa.
Nessuno sa....
Che avrei soltanto l'amore per lei...
Per lei che ha il nome di un fiore per lei...
Per lei che è l'unica al mondo, per lei...
Per lei che è l'unica al mondo, per lei...
Ed ogni raggio di luna è per lei...
Ed ogni raggio di luna è per lei...
Lei...

I'm a bastard, a liar and do so without a cause ...
They chatter about me,
I'm a witch drugged and made up and full of himself ...
And tell me,
that is a silly phrase to say over coffee ...
But no, nobody knows.
But no, nobody knows.
I'd just love for her ...
For her that has the name of a flower for you ...
For her ..
They chatter about me,
that is a silly phrase to say over coffee ...
They chatter about me,
I am a snake with wings and a devil's heart by re ...
That's why, nobody knows.
That's why, nobody knows.
That's why, nobody knows.
No one knows ....
I'd just love for her ...
For her that has the name of a flower for you ...
For her it is only in the world for her ...
For her it is only in the world for her ...
And every ray of the moon is for you ...
And every ray of the moon is for you ...
You.

  2. He played in Tuscania once, which was a big deal. I was a big fan of Lunapop too. There are a couple of their songs that I really liked. Buona domenica Linda.

  5. LindyLouMac what a pleasure to meet you.
    My mad mother thinks she is Italian having spent much of her youth living in Rome. She used to speak to me in Italian (usually when she'd had a few!)
    As a consequence I have grown up with a love of Italy and Italian music. Umberto Tozzi is one of my favourites. I really liked this song too and I think I'll introduce this artist to Mum once she gets back from Cyprus and off the Zorba the Greek plate smashing music.
    Many thanks for finding me and following. I'm particularly delighted because it has given me the opportunity to discover your wonderful blog.
    Warm wishes
    Carol
