Renato Zero - Dimmi Chi Dorme Accanto A Me

i would love to start with a comment that my friend Anca wrote about this amazin singer in one of my videos called Nei giardini che nessuno sa, In The Garden That Nobody Knows. She wrote something like this-Renato sings about afflicted and underprivileged people, about sadness,He sings about loneliness, he's uprising against injustice and makes from love the most beautiful symbol. His comparisons are bewildering and he mocks about those who think they are gods, but in fact they are merely simple mortal creatures. His music, as the lyrics, are subtle allegories, they have a strong emotional impact and it's almost impossible to translate them in another language if you do not know Italian. here is a little about him. Renato Zero is the stage name of Renato Fiacchini (born 30 September 1950), an Italian singer, songwriter, producer, dancer and actor whose career spans from the 1960s to the 2020s. Zero is the only artist to have reached the top of the Italian charts in six different decades. With 40 million records sold, he is one of the best-selling Italian music artists. Zero was born Renato Fiacchini in central Rome, in Via di Ripetta, next to the famed Via del Corso. He quit his studies early to devote himself to his true passion, the arts, more specifically playing music and singing – though initially with little success. From an early age, he would wear make-up and cross-dress. He replied to the criticisms he received (including the recurring insult Sei uno zero! – "You're a zero!") by taking on the pseudonym Renato Zero. He recorded his first songs in 1965: "Tu", "Sì", "Il deserto", "La solitudine", which were never issued. His first published single, "Non basta sai/In mezzo ai guai" (1967), sold a total of 20 copies and was quickly forgotten. He had several different jobs, including an appearance in an advertisement for ice-cream; work as a dancer in a TV show; playing and dancing in two musicals; and minor roles in two Fellini movies. In the early 1970s Zero's career was given a boost by the glam-rock movement, from which he benefited with his sexual ambiguity and androgynous appearance. At the same time, this led him to being accused of emulating other celebrities like David Bowie and, in particular, Marc Bolan. In 1973 he issued his first LP, No! Mamma, no! (recorded live), but still with little success. The follow-up Invenzioni met the same fate. Renato Zero is the only artist to have reached number 1 on the Italian charts in six different decades (1970s, ‘80s, ‘90s, 2000s, 2010s and 2020s). He has had no fewer than 30 albums in the Top 10. Renato Zero has an album (Presente) certified Diamond by FIMI, a goal officially achieved in the Italian charts history by only five artists (Vasco Rossi, Ligabue, Jovanotti and Modà being the others). He likes to work with other artists, and has written songs for numerous other singers as well. With his particular approach in performances, shows and tours, he is a leading live performer in his country and obtained a unique spot in the Italian musical scene. Throughout his career, Renato Zero has been a campaigner against drug abuse. lyrics of the song translated in English by Google. [Tell me who sleeps next to me ] The night you fly the night consoles you tell me who sleeps next to me ... your thoughts they move stealthily tell me who sleeps next to me beautiful and disarming you are here but your desire how far it goes a thousand ways to escape ... You are no longer mine. You suffer a lot I'm suffocating you I feel it tell me who sleeps next to me a naked body it's you at least I think tell me who sleeps next to me with this darkness I swear I can not distinguish if I'm alone making love with you so crowded your mind I don't know what orgasm will I die of you whisper so many names except mine to the point that I don't remember it myself ... And my ransom, as always, will be ... the bed Tell me who sleeps next to me if I'm wrong again I still depend on why yet still not enough for me ... the fear of being alone unconsciousness melancholy while I sleep I wait for you to come back ... your common sense will win who knows ... Tell me who sleeps next to me if there is a reason in all this ... Assumptions the usual apprehensions tell me who sleeps next to me pink dressing gown scent of mimosa but who knows what my time is and fatally run away at midnight on your cloud looking for company not only angels in that sky you will meet if you stay with me you won't risk it I will not be that concentrate of virtue the ideal man you imagine but I'm here, anyway I'm here ... still! Tell me who sleeps next to me I no longer have dignity or pride every awakening is a surprise with you ... ending it here would be better ... short loves unsatisfied loves I hope I will never relive you again but there is no love that has no flaws ... where are you, where are you, where are you! Tell me who sleeps next to me if there is a reason in all this
