29/03/2012 - 6.35 - Teatro alla Scala has officially announced that Vasco Rossi's debut with the ballet "L'altra metà del cielo", scheduled for Saturday, March 31, has been postponed due to a strike called by workers' unions. (Radio Italia)

Damn, now that I know how am I going to sleep

Reading from the various posts of the article:

"Vasco Rossi curated the music and worked hard for this project, ..."

here is a wonderful passage from our lyricist:

http://angolotesti.l...anna_41228.html

Susanna is a colorful girl

Susanna is an orange-flavored treat....

Susanna is a completely colorful girl

who when she goes dancing looks like an orange treat

and if by chance you get the urge

to eat her all up

watch out friend

that is hot fruit

watch out friend....damn, you've already broken it!

Lyrics and Music: Vasco Rossi

...he really worked very hard

I don't love Vasco Rossi, but it is certain that no one ever expected, from him, lyrics like Mogol's or Sinfield's. Vasco Rossi has always written these things, in this way, no more and no less. And there aren't even many people who know how to do certain things his way, much to the dismay of Lyricists with a capital L; otherwise, they would have called those people...

I'm telling you this but I don't guarantee its reliability, they are rumors...

Rumors from the people have told me that when Vasco Rossi was not yet "Vasco Rossi," he was invited to a small village in the Viterbo area for a concert. He was offered dinner in a trattoria near the square where he was supposed to perform. Imagine the expenses: stage, audio/video service, etc., etc. The concert was canceled because by the end of dinner he was dead drunk and couldn't stand up on his own.

They always have environments, orchestras, and specialized staff at their disposal; there is no way out of it.

Why not organize an internal contest on the site to produce a beautiful song? We have the composers, we have the arrangers, the singers, we can find the lyricists... What more are we looking for? Let's call for the most beautiful compositions and create a great CD!

I have always thought that Vasco Rossi is very overrated. Beyond the music, which isn't all bad, I cannot highly esteem a singer who clearly DOES NOT know how to sing (nor write, for that matter =P). I believe he owes practically everything to his arranger and the musicians in his band, who are at a much higher level than him.
