I don't think i'm exaggerating if i say Lucio Battisti was to italian music more or less what The Beatles were for british and american music, he revolutionized it. This is one of his most iconic classics 🙂. You should check more from him. His discography is a gift to humanity.

Lucio Battisti - Emotions (English translation) Following with eyes a heron above the river and then Finding yourself flying And lying down happy above the grass to listen to A subtle sorrow And at night passing with the look at the hill to find out Where the sun goes to sleep Asking yourself why when the sadness falls At the bottom of the heart Like the snow doesn't make a sound And driving like crazy with headlights turned off in the night For to see If afterwords is so hard to die And clasping hands to stop Something that is inside of me But in your mind it is not You can't understand You call it if you want Emotions You call it if you want Emotions Getting out of the moor of the morning Where you can't see a hair's breadth away To find your own self again Making a small talk with a fisherman For hours and hours For not to hear that inside something is dying And covering with soil a green seedling Hoping it will be able to Sprout one day a red rose And taking in the fists a l man Only because he was a little rude Knowing that what burns are not insults And closing the eyes for to stop Something that Is inside of me But in your mind it is not You can't understand You call it if you want Emotions You call it if you want Emotions

Bellissimo Mad che dice “Non so l’italiano ma capisco le emozioni di questo brano” e Lucio subito dopo “Capire tu non puoi, tu chiamale se vuoi emozioni “. Fantastico! 😂💙🤩

Battisti is one of the sacred monsters of Italian music. His songs are known by all generations. Moreover, the lyrics of his songs were written by Giulio Mogol, in my opinion, one of the best contemporary poets, while the music is all played by Lucio Battisti himself. Therefore, I take this opportunity to suggest you some of his other legendary songs of which you can find the lyrics translated into English directly on KZfaq using the keyword "english lyrics": 1) Pensieri e parole; 2) Io vorrei...non vorrei...ma se vuoi; 3) I giardini di Marzo; 4) Con il nastro rosa. THANKS FOR THESE FANTASTIC REACTIONS.

Questa è la più bella canzone di Lucio battisti che io abbia mai ascoltato.

Perfino Mad appartenendo ad una cultura musicale Rock Metal ha capito l' unicità della voce di Battisti.. indecifrabile unica..come un codice binario

Sono davvero super contenta di leggere questi commenti su LUCIO BATTISTI!!!! EMOZIONI secondo me è uno dei più grandi capolavori, anche se le sue canzoni sono tutte capolavori...Io abito a Poggio Bustone il suo paese natale e mia nonna era sua parente quindi sono doppiamente orgogliosa!!! 😢😘🇮🇹🇮🇹🥺🥺🥺Grandissimo Lucio FOREVER!!

LUCIO è in assoluto IL NUMERO UNO. Autentico spartiacque della musica in Italia, ha rappresentato il vero riferimento per tutti gli artisti italiani, da Vasco Rossi alla PFM con cui ha registrato molti dei suoi brani, a Gianna Nannini che ha esordito nella sua casa discografica, Edoardo Bennato, Ivan Graziani e tanti altri. Uno degli artisti preferiti da Mina con cui ha registrato un duetto nella televisione italiana ormai diventato un Cult. Le sue canzoni e le stupende liriche scritte da Mogol sono ormai diventate patrimonio di tutte le generazioni di Italiani, entrando anche nei modi di dire del linguaggio quotidiano. Alla registrazione del brano Emozioni hanno suonato i musicisti della PFM.

Pete Townshend, il leader degli Who, dopo aver ascoltato "Emozioni" negli studi di registrazione a Londra, si commosse e chiamo' tutte le persone presenti in ufficio dicendo “It’s a masterpiece”, è un capolavoro».

Epic, Angelo. Battisti was the most universally underrated musical talent, but in Italy he was rightly considered a god.

If you read the lyrics of this song, you will appreciate it more and more. There are millions of italian people they know by heart each word of this song. Lucio Battisti is always in our heart.

Songs by Lucio Battisti have been part of the life of many generations in Italy. His songs never get old and are always actual. There's a magic behind them 🫶🏻

Listen to anything Lucio Battisti sings, you will discover a full world of beauty.

Lucio is a HUGE ICON, He was an institution for my generation.. He’s untouchable because he wasn’t perfect...

No.1 singer, songwriter, composer , poet! Natural Italian talent! Heavenly powerful words! R.I.P. Lucio

Lucio Battisti is pure emotion....❤🇮🇹 You have to read the lyrics too!😃

Mi fa pensare a mia Madre e a quanto le piaceva Battisti e in particolare questo brano. Le lacrime mi ricordano quanto mi manca ma sono sicuro che ovunque lei sia, spero che l'abbia ascoltata insieme a me! Grazie mille Angelo per questa tua reaction!

La musica italiana è sempre sopra il tetto del mondo. Compositori, cantautori, gruppi, che dire.....

One of the most important Italian songs. It's a song about human being's feelings. It describes the different ways in which we can feel Life. Bad and good things, beautiful and sad emotions. It's very poetic. ❤️

If you start to listen to Battisti you'll find an enormous amount of unique great pieces of music.

Grande Lucio Battisti Another Song " Con il nastro rosa " Epic guitar solo .... by Phil Palmer .... produced by Jeff Wesley .The best

It’s not your generation it’s not your language it’s not your gender but you know how to grasp every details. Lucio is a poet the myth of a generation each of his songs is a masterpiece.In a few years we lost him De Andre’ Lucio Dalla Pino Daniele Franco Battiato Pavarotti e il maestro Ennio Morricone.don’t stop now you still have so much to discover

Dear Mad I got to know you immediately after the win of Maneskin at Eurovision, my new favorite group, and NOW I find you reacting to LUCIO BATTISTI which is my favorite Italian singer despite he died almost 25 years ago. Thanks to his song, I learned to play the guitar when I was in my twenties , cause I wanted to sing them and feel the emotions running into my veins.. Thank you from an Italian 50 years old boy, bro

Che bellissimo regalo ci hai fatto. Battisti è una vera e propria leggenda della musica italiana. Amato da tutti gli italiani. Se puoi fare altre reazioni sempre con canzoni sue sarebbe meraviglioso!!!😍😍😍😍

Lucio Battisti was the favourite of alan parfon project and Davide Bowie

Non è una semplice canzone è poesia❤

i remember being in the car with my uncle and singing to battisti when i was a little kid, he’s part of my childhood even if i’m just 16

Lucio Battisti has ever been and will always be part of my life. His music and his voice gave the most deep emotions (emozioni) to my soul.. Every time I listen to this song.. and others more of him.. my heart overflowes. He's something that one cannot explain. Lucio Battisti for ever!!

Lucio Battisti is one of our national proud🥰😍thank you for your reaction👏💖

Lucio Battisti era anni avanti rispetto ad altri artisti italiani, ammirato anche da David Bowie che in un occasione adatto' il testo in inglese di " Io vorrei,non vorrei,ma se vuoi" in "Music is lethal" per un disco di Mick Ronson suo storico chitarrista.

credo che la differenza tra le emozioni che dà De André e quelle che trasmette Battisti sia che in De André la comprensione del testo è essenziale mentre Battisti, nonostante gli splendidi testi, potrebbe cantare l'elenco telefonico e ti farebbe comunque provare il suo stesso stato d'animo.

The song was recorded with a 60-piece orchestra. On drums was the great Franz Di Cioccio, drummer of PFM, an Italian prog group, very famous in England in the 70s and that you should go and listen to… EMOZIONI has a poem as its text, it refers to a horse trip that Battisti and Mogols made from Milan to Rome for fun. But then it took on a meaning that goes far beyond that experience. This is the only recording of the song: good first time. It was never repeated again.

Le canzoni di Battisti, sono vere e proprie ICONE. Lucio e Mogol (suo compositore) hanno cambiato la musica degli anni 60/70. Credo che la loro musica, abbia dato un impulso importante anche alle discografie mondiali.

Battisti, the best hidden secret of Italian music with Vasco. Battisti is everything... Is popular music, is cultural music, it's the use of the Italian language at an incredible level, it's a whole world

I tuoi occhi, le tue espessioni dicono tutto! Tutto quello che Lucio trasmette con la sua voce e le sue melodie, quello che succede a te succede a me quando ascolto musica inglese dove non sempre capisco le parole poi io amo Steven Wilson, Fish, Genesis, Pink ma al primo posto anche perche' ci vivo grazie a lui e' Lucio Battisti

Mad Battisti è il mostro sacro della musica italiana.

Probably the greatest Italian singer

You're made of stone if his voice and song won't pinch the lump from your throat. Tu chiamale se vuoi,EMOZIONI. THIS A BEAUTIFUL SONG FROM BATTISTI.

Thanks so much for listening to this masterpiece by our beloved Lucio and appreciating it!

Anna - Comunque bella - Non è Francesca - I giardini di marzo - Almeno l'inizio - Fiori rosa fiori di pesco - 10 ragazze - Il tempo di morire - La canzone del sole - Vendo casa - Mi ritorni in mente - Nel sole nel vento nel sorriso e nel pianto - Nel cuore nell'anima - Anima latina - Campati in aria - E penso a te - Acqua azzurra acqua chiara... Le canzoni di Lucio sono tutte Emozioni!

Mogol (lyricist) and Lucio Battisti (singer musician), a partnership that made the history of Italian music ❤

E' trascorso mezzo secolo e le sue canzoni sono sempre attuali e bellissime. Non ci si stanca mai di ascoltare la sua voce unica ed inimitabile. Grazie Lucio. Non sei morto. Sei e sarai sempre tra noi.

i was born in the same little town of Lucio Battisti, by his voice, by his music, i breath the scents of my countryside...

You really have to listen more and more songs of Lucio, Ang. Must say that It comforts me a lot that you felt the song and its “emozioni” (emotions) even without a full understanding of the song meaning…but please, you have to read Lucio Battisti Lyrics, they are frequently poems… There’s always a mixture of powerful images, both super simple and, at the same time, deep and complex. The Lyrics of “emozioni” are fundamental.

I partially feel bad for you not knowing italian and understanding the lyrics, 'cause in this song they are a masterpiece, pure poetry. But when you recalled your time in New York I get the message: music truly is, like laughter and crying, an universal language. That's all what this song is about: moments, experiences of life, simple ordinary things that in a glimpse of thought become core memories. Your reaction touched me - mostly because I sing this song with my band and had really to dive into it to sunk in all the emotions, like you did here - and I just wanted to say thank you

Le parole sono poesia pura

I giardini di marzo La collina dei ciliegi La luce dell'est Lucio battisti ❤

7:57 i totally agree. you don’t need to understand, you just feel the songs vibe. but just imagine how much more you’d appreciate the song if you know that the lyrics is some of the most poetic, touching and well written lyrics contained in a song ever

This song made you think of that, of her in NY, and you touched the soul of this music. Great man. Thank you for your musical and human sensibility. When I was young, filled of Pink Floyd an Led Zepp I didn't like Battisti because I was rough and different . Today at my 50's years of age i cry like a child remembering that time gone.

pochi o nessuno come LUCIO BATTISTI😢

You must listen "e penso a te"another beautiful song from him

Lucio Battisti for the music and Mogol for the lyrics have revolutionized Italian music

Il nostro Lucio amato da tre generazioni ci ha lasciato troppo presto ma : nelle sue canzoni ha trasmesso tutte le nostre emozioni pensieri e parole ! Se puoi mad ascolta " l'arcobaleno scritta dal suo amico e paroliere Mogol e cantata da Celentano

Puoi ascoltare tutti i suoi LP ma non troverai una sola canzone simile o uguale ad un'altra. Lucio è avanti con la sua musica ancora oggi . Un numero uno 😊

If you continue to listen to Italian songs, you are going to learn Italian! 😊 You are a very sensitive man, often you are able to correlate the songs to an appropriate situation (in this case, after a meeting with a girlfriend) without knowing the words meaning. Bravo! Greetings from Florence 🤗👋 ps: react to another Battisti's masterpiece 'i giardini di marzo'

I’m glad you like this masterpiece! Thanks for your touching and emotional reaction.

Battisti, my favorite artist Italy artist is the best

una poesia. sarebbe stato opportuno tradurre il testo, per apprezzare fino in fondo questo pezzo di storia della musica. LUCIO PER SEMPRE.

I love the fact that you say "I feel all of his emotions" and Lucio literally sings "You can't understand, you call them emotions, if you want"

Lucio number 1 of Italian music. A lot of great songs, many of them very popular in Italy but I love also his last less commercial albums (the so called "white albums"). Anyway the whole album Anima Latina is an absolute must.

"You don't always have to understand the lyrics to feel it" What I as an average Italian teenager was doing while listening to English songs most of the times 😅

When Lucio died in Italy was national mourning! He was a legend.

And how many love stories born from this music, how many bonfires near the sea, singing this song all together.....oh my.......

You probably remember "If paradise is half as nice" by Amen Corner or "Wake me I am dreaming" by The Love affair. These songs were two global hits of the early 70es written by Lucio.

The text was written by Mogol. The greatness of Battisti was just this: even without understanding the words, you can understand exactly the emotion. Battisti sang directly to people's hearts, with his clean voice he was the greatest interpreter of Italian music.

To follow with the eyes a heron over the river and then to find yourself flying. And to happily lie down on the grass to listen to a subtle sorrow. And at night to scan the hill to discover where the sun goes to sleep. To ask yourself why when sadness falls at the bottom of the heart like snow it makes no noise. And to drive like a madman with headlights off in the night to see if it’s really so difficult to die. And to clench the hands to hold on to something that is inside me but in your mind, it is not. You cannot understand, call them, if you want: emotions. Call them, if you want: emotions. To got out into the heath in the morning where you aren’t able see a step ahead of you to look for yourself. To talk, more or less, with a fisherman for hours and hours to not feel that something inside of you is dying. And to cover with soil a little green plant hoping that one day a red rose will bloom. And to punch out someone because he was a bit discorteous knowing that what really burns are not the offences. And to close the eyes to hold on to something that is inside me but in your mind, it is not. You cannot understand, call them, if you want: emotions. Call them, if you want: emotions.

A great , great song of LUCIO BATTISTI is: " IO VORREI... NON ... VORREI... MA SE VUOI". Music , lirics and voice = GREAT , GREAT, GREAT !

It is very difficult to say which one is the best song from Lucio Battisti because there are so many and all of them have something special but this one, Emozioni, every time gives me the goosbumps and brings tears in my eyes for its melody, the lyrics and the beauty of the song itself. He was a true genius who left us too soon leaving a great void in our hearts.......💔

Many years ago I listen from the radio 'Vento nel vento' and I entered in a state of Grace for many hours. This man was inspired by God. Believe me!

Esta es una de sus primeras canciones. Lucio Battisti alcanzó la perfección desde el principio. Y es absolutamente actual. Su música no envejece. Un mito.

AS A KID WE USED TO RUN TO RECORD SHOP TO BUY LUCIO'D RECORDS..IT WAS ALWAYS AN EVENT... YOU GAVE ME AN EMOZIONE THIS MORNING. GRAZIE.

One of Bowie's favorite singers. Sublime.

...and I love your feelings, your soul and your way of thinking when you react to such masterpieces. Thanks Ang, I'm so happy you're on this earth. I'm so happy I found you and your channel. Be ALWAYS as you are❤️ "Emozioni" (emotions) everywhere, with this song...😊❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Lucio is a legend no way 🇮🇹

Ang, Italian music is almost sad music. That's perfect for you 💫💞 ,

You call them emotions,😍 beautiful song Lucio Battisti🤟

Italian pop music has a mum , Mina, and a dad, Lucio Battisti.

My eyes following a heron on the river, then finding myself flying And lying down happily on the grass, listening to a subtle regret And my gaze crossing the hill at night to find where the sun goes down to sleep Wondering why, when my sadness fall at the bottom of my heart like the snow, it doesn't make a sound And driving like a madman in the night with the headlights off, just to see whether it's so hard to die, after all Closing my hands to stop something that is inside me, but it isn't in your mind You cannot understand You can call them, if you want, emotions. You can call them, if you want, emotions. Going out on the moors in the morning, when you can't see a feet away, to find myself again Chatting of this and that with a fisher for hours on end to not feeling something dying inside of me And covering a green sprout with soil, hoping one day it could grow into a red rose. And punching a man just because he's been a bit rude, knowing that the insults are not what's burning me And closing my eyes to stop something that is inside me but is not in your mind You cannot understand You can call them, if you want, emotions. You can call them, if you want, emotions.

I read somewhere Lucio was David Bowie's favourite singer .

L'album "Emozioni " contiene 12 brani. Tutti bellissimi e tutti famosi in Italia. Capolavoro mitico.

Battisti ❤️ people that don't love his music they can't love any kind of music. Thank you Ang for this reaction

Grazie per la tua reazione..battisti è stato un mostro sacro della musica italiana...ci ha lasciato delle canzoni meravigliose...🥰 Mi piacerebbe vedere una tua reazione su Riccardo Cocciante in particolare la canzone Margherita..da te che hai una sensibilità particolare..🌈❤️

Sir Paul McCartney owns all of Lucio Battisti's records. 😉

"I don't even know if it's a sad song" yes you know, because IT IS SAD and you could feel it without understanding a word and that's the magic that only Lucio has... it's basically about loving someone that doesn't love you back and you can feel it in every second of the song.

Questa è la dimostrazione che i grandi uomini che con la propria arte e talento riescono a creare capolavori e benessere in qualsiasi campo per l'intera l'umanità !! Non hanno nazionalità ,sono universali. Battisti, è stato, e sarà per sempre ricordato per quello che è stato. Un Genio. Nel suo campo è paragonabile a Michelangelo.

Hi Mad, I love your videos and I'm glad you like italian "classics" songs. I recommend some good translations of Lucio Battisti's songs. The greatest hits are written by Giulio Rapetti aka Mogol. We are talking about a true poet and therefore of poetry. Lucio's voice is perfect for Mogol's lyrics. Have a nice weekend!

Finalmente lui il piu grande di sempre Lucio Battisti essenza della musica Italiana ❤❤❤

Dieci ragazze ,acqua azzurra acqua chiara.....Tanti pezzi ci ha regalato questo artista ,thanks react♥️💯🇮🇹

You are not the only one to love this song all italian love him.

battisti is god,one of the most important songs in italian music history

Ciao Angelo, finalmente hai scoperto Lucio Battisti, da molti e considerato il numero 1 in Italia, e abbastanza conosciuto anche in Europa , pensa che Paul mc carteney ha tutti i suoi dischi e scusa se e poco 😊 comunque ti consiglio di Lucio i brani, i giardini di marzo, pensieri e parole, una donna per amico, ancora tu, con il nastro rosa, tutti capolavori assoluti anche tutte le altre sono famosissime ma queste spiccano ti consiglio vivamente di ascoltarle ne vale la pena, Un saluto dalla cara vecchia Italia 😊

Battisti was the greatest of all. Listen to his music again. Pensieri e parole Una giornata uggiosa Il mio canto libero La canzone del sole Una donna per amico Acqua azzurra, acqua chiara Con il nastro rosa I giardini di marzo Mi ritorni in mente Sì, viaggiare La collina dei ciliegi E penso a te Ancora tu Balla Linda Non è Francesca Io vorrei... Non vorrei... Ma se vuoi Fiori rosa, fiori di pesco Amarsi un pò Un'avventura Dieci ragazze Il tempo di morire Anima latina Hegel And many other songs.

I love Battisti and Mina music.They are the best and of course italian language

Lucio battisti number one 👍👍👍. 'Pensieri e parole' è meravigliosa

Lucio is one of my all time favorites! A huge musician!

Un vero capolavoro della musica italiana

❤️ the greatest!

Omg Thank you for this reaction this is The foundamental of Italian Music

I am really happy that you immediately recognized the genius of Lucio Battisti in his voice. Look at lyrics too. he was criticized at the time, because he didn't sing conventionally. Right now he's a star, the greatest singer we've ever had, like Pavarotti and Mina.

Music and voice pure emotion, lyrics very deep. You could like lyrics so much too...
