Chissà chi sei (Esta historia es de verdad)
"Chissà chi sei - Esta historia es de verdad" A Musical Journey Between Regret and Joy** **Introduction:** When it comes to reinterpreting a classic, the risk is always high. However, "Chissà chi sei - Esta historia es de verdad" manages to transform the famous "Con il nastro rosa" by Lucio Battisti into a modern and touching version that, while respecting the essence of the original, profoundly changes its message and energy. "Chissà chi sei - Esta historia es de verdad" is an intriguing reinterpretation of "Con il nastro rosa," one of the most famous songs by the legendary Italian singer-songwriter Lucio Battisti. The cover stands out not only for its thematic change but also for its renewed musical approach, combining elements of Jazz, Pop, and Swing. This version brings a breath of fresh air while maintaining the reflective soul of the original. **The Original: An Existential Doubt:** The original song, "Con il nastro rosa," released in 1980 as the B-side of the single from the album "Una giornata uggiosa," tells the story of a man about to get married. He is plagued by doubts and uncertainties about the woman he is about to marry and the future of their relationship. The famous phrase "lo scopriremo solo vivendo" encapsulates the essence of uncertainty and trust in the future, becoming a proverb in the Italian language. **The New Interpretation: Reflections and Rebirth:** The lyrics of "Chissà chi sei - Esta historia es de verdad" retain some of the iconic phrases from the original, such as "lo scopriremo solo vivendo," but place them in a different context. Where Battisti sang about the uncertainty regarding an imminent relationship, here the protagonist reflects on the past and the authenticity of current happiness. The repetition of "Chissà, chissà chi sei" and "Quién sabe quién serás" is no longer a question addressed to the future wife, but a reflection on one's identity and the future that still holds surprises. The protagonist looks back on his existence, amidst mistakes and falls, finally finding a moment of happiness. He wonders how long this happiness will last and if what he is experiencing is real, concluding that only by living each moment with joy can one consider it a success. This thematic change gives the song a more philosophical and universal dimension, making it a hymn to resilience and the joy of living. The chorus, which in the original version was an invitation to live despite uncertainties, here becomes a hymn to the joy of living every moment intensely. The final phrase "solo vivendo ne sono certo sarà un grande successo" offers a message of hope and positivity, urging to find happiness in the present. **A Lively Musical Mix:** The new version also stands out musically. The arrangement incorporates elements of Jazz, Pop, and Swing, creating a lively and rhythmic atmosphere. Piano and oboe solos alternate, while bass and drums set a cheerful and engaging rhythm. This fusion of genres gives the song a freshness and modernity that make it accessible and enjoyable to a contemporary audience. **Lyrics and Music: A New Dialogue:** The cover's lyrics retain some iconic phrases from the original but place them in a new context. Phrases like "Chissà, chissà chi sei" and "lo scopriremo vivendo" are accompanied by reflections on sincerity and the joy of living. The repetition of the chorus in Italian and Spanish ("Quién sabe quién serás" and "Esta historia es de verdad") adds an international touch, making the song accessible to a broader audience. **Conclusion:** "Chissà chi sei - Esta historia es de verdad" manages to respect Lucio Battisti's legacy while offering a fresh and contemporary interpretation. The combination of reflective lyrics and lively musical arrangement creates a perfect balance between emotional depth and auditory pleasure. This cover is a tribute to the past and a celebration of the present, reminding us that life, with its uncertainties and joys, must be lived to the fullest. more
