“La Traversata Dell’Estate” from the album Alla Mia Età
This is a song that still confuses me a little… I’d say it’s about a summer fling that for various reasons just doesn’t work out, and the media spinning it into a whole different story.
The live performance of this song (skip to 2:00) on his only concert DVD is one of my favorites of his, the “ey ey ey” parts kill me every time.
English translation of “La Traversata Dell’Estate”:
“The Passing of Summer”
They held us at the hotel… hot
After the aerial massacre
And what kind of person are you… mean
You’re suspicious of rhetoric
I swear if I knew it was hurting you I wouldn’t leave
ever, ever, ever
If only you had the courage to ask, I wouldn’t let you go
ever, ever, but
The passing of summer
The eternal love of winter
With passion and courage
I’ll go on this journey with you
The passing of summer
And I swear that I won’t sell the secrets and memories
ever, ever, ever
And if you begged me to betray you I wouldn’t give in
ever, ever, but
The passing of summer
The eternal love of winter
With passion and courage
I’ll go on this journey with you
The passing of summer
You won’t ever see me be miserable
You won’t be able to
And it will go away
The passing of summer
The eternal love of winter
With passion and courage
I’ll go on this journey with you
The passing of summer
The eternal love of winter
With passion and courage
I’ll go on this journey with you
They held us in a bar… hot
Between a beach and a non-alcoholic beer
And what a personality… mean
If you believe only in the media
Of summer, of summer, of summer
