A tutti i poeti manca un verso: ogni tanto anche lo staff di Canzoni Contro la Guerra inciampa su qualche canzone dalla micidiale e irreparabile bruttezza, come questo rap in romanesco imitazione di un originale già esiziale per proprio conto, la cui funesta aura adombra ogni pur lodevole intenzione...

Fabrizio De André: Monti di Mola
![Fabrizio De André: Monti di Mola](img/thumb/c38447_130x140.jpeg?1328307976)
Dal blog Fabrizio De André in English
"Monti di Mola" takes place on the Emerald Coast of Sardinia. De André called the song a metaphor showing the impossibility of reaching one's dreams in a society that has become bureaucratic and standardized, where the imagination of the culture can't expand to accept "impossible dreams" that are on the verge of coming true. The song is in the Gallurese dialect.
It took six years after the tremendous success of Creuza de mä for De André to release his next studio album, Le nuvole (The Clouds). In the meantime, he and Mauro Pagani explored several avenues of musical collaboration which did not come to fruition. De André had this to say about Le nuvole: "I realized that people are just pissed off, and since Le nuvole is a symbol of this dissatisfaction, the transference, the intermediary for this general discontent, I would say that the album was welcomed...

Ballata degli impiccati
![Ballata degli impiccati](img/thumb/c5625_130x140.jpeg?1328564301)
Dal blog Fabrizio De André in English
"La ballata degli impiccati" is closely related to a 1462 poem, "Ballade des pendus" by François Villon, written in prison while waiting for his execution. Whereas Villon asks for pity for the condemned, the lyrics of De Andrè and Bentivoglio express rancor for those who judged, for those who buried, even for those who remembered, all of whom will inevitably also meet their ends.
Tutti morimmo a stento, released in 1968, was one of the first concept albums in Italy. In De Andrè's own words, the album "speaks of death, not of bubble gum death with little bones, but of psychological death, moral death, mental death, that a normal person can encounter during his lifetime." After the success of Volume I, De André was provided for this next album a cutting edge recording studio complete with an 80-member orchestra, directed by Gian Piero Reverberi, and a... (Continues)

"De André wrote "Amico fragile" in a drunken rage after attending a party of rich Italians vacationing on Sardinia. They were only interested in having him play guitar and sing his songs, whereas De André wanted to engage people in discussions about events going on in Italy. He became ever more frustrated and inebriated with the shallowness of the evening, returning home to stay up all night and produce this "stream of semi-consciousness" rant. The song was a staple in his live shows and was one of De André's favorites." - Dennis Criteser

"Andrea" is both an anti-war song and a statement of solidarity with and acceptance of gays, as the song is about the love between two men (Andrea is a man's name in Italian). The setting for the song is World War I, which can be deduced because intense battles occurred on the ground in the mountains of Trent during WWI, whereas in WWII Trent suffered bombing from the air by the Germans toward the end of the war.
Rimini grew out of De André's disappointments with the political events of the previous couple of years. In close collaboration with Massimo Bubola, a young 24-year-old who had just released his first album, De André explored several social and political themes, including abortion, homosexuality, and how the petty bourgeois attempted to move into the ranks of the powerful and rise above the political and social turmoil of the times.

Dal blog Fabrizio De André in English
"The music of "Canzone per l'estate" is entirely De Gregori's, while the lyrics were co-written. De André described the song as somewhat autobiographical, describing the tension between the bourgeois life he grew up in and lived much of his life in, and his attraction to anarchism and to society's outcasts who seemed more genuine and alive than the upper classes. Indeed the song describes well the soul-sapping nature of a comfortable, prosperous life that takes one away from vitality and even political engagement ("your eyes closed to the people")." - Dennis Criteser

But in a moral sense, if you're straying down the wrong path, going down a slippery slope or leading someone astray, you're on a "cattiva strada" and more than a paving crew will be needed. Author and De André expert Cesare Romana observed the following about "La cattiva strada": "The song is among the most illustrative of the philosophy of a great moralist disguised as an 'immoralist.' The bad road represents a pirate ethic, and also the free port where the powers-that-be don't come. Thus it comes to be defined as bad, yet holding these mainstream powers at a distance endows a force most subversive and revolutionary that can be placed at our disposition: love. The fact is that De André never moved far from the bad road. He continued to think that the humanity, love and dignity of man resided there, and... (Continues)

Canzone per l’estate
![Canzone per l’estate](img/thumb/c47971_130x140.jpeg?1409340034)
In realtà, Fabrizio De André descrisse questa canzone (il cui testo è, sarà bene ricordarlo, stato scritto assieme a Francesco De Gregori) come in un certo qual modo autobiografica. Parla, secondo De André, della tensione tra la vita borghese in cui era cresciuto e aveva vissuto parte della sua vita, e l’attrazione per l’Anarchia e per gli “ultimi” della società, che gli sembravano molto più vivi e genuini delle classi superiori. Fatta salva l’oscurità del testo, caratteristica del resto saliente di quell’album “degregoriano”, si avverte comunque abbastanza bene l’attacco alla vita borghese, confortevole e prospera, che distoglie l’essere umano dalla vitalità e dall’impegno politico (gli “occhi chiusi sulla gente”). Per quel che mi riguarda, l’ho sempre avvertita molto come una canzone sulla dissoluzione della famiglia borghese.

"Il testamento di Tito" takes us into the Old Testament to the Ten Commandments. Tito, the so-called good thief from the Syriac Infancy Gospel, recounts how he violated each of the commandments (except "Thou shalt not kill"), offering critiques along the way. De André considered this song one of his very best for its hard-hitting social impact." - Dennis Criteser

The third verse may refer to a series of murders by a neo-Nazi duo who tagged themselves as Ludwig. The fourth verse refers to the Polish refugees who came to Italy after the fall of the Soviet Union and who worked the streets cleaning car windows (i.e., redoing the makeup of the capitalists heading off to the beach).

Dal blog Fabrizio De André in English
"This song was released in 1963 as the B side of a 45 with "Il fannullone" as the A-side. The text was written by a friend from childhood, Paolo Villagio, and the music is by De Andrè. The Battle of Poitiers occurred in 732, a battle between the Franks and the Moors in what is now northern France. The song is in the style of popular French pastourelles sung by medieval troubadours about encounters between knights and country girls. In 1965 a complaint was brought against De Andrè and his label Karim for obscene content in the lyrics. The case was settled in De Andrè's favor in 1968. The Italian in this song is an old style, and Riccardo Venturi has done a nice translation into a similarly "olde" style of English." - Dennis Criteser

Dal blog Fabrizio De André in English
"Il fannul[l]one" was the A-side of De Andrè's third single on Karim, released in 1963. It was co-written with Paolo Villaggio, a childhood friend. There are several strains in this early song that will surface regularly in later songs: going against the grain of mainstream society, a sense of irony towards so-called respectable folk ("la gente per bene"), and an irreverent and playful attitude. The song no doubt sprang from the anti-conformist lifestyles of the two young authors. Riccardo Venturi called this song "deliciously revolutionary and subversive" and described it as a "hymn to doing nothing," where to do nothing is to live life truly, not allowing a dehumanized corporate complex to take it away from you." - Dennis Criteser

C'ero anch'io alla Mandria e sono uno di quelli che ha suonato e cantato su quel palco, con il gruppo di Siracusa, per "sostituire" i contestati (non tanto loro quanto l'idea degli organizzatori di pagare qualcuno per esibirsi) Angelo Branduardi (quasi sconosciuto al tempo) e Napoli Centrale (appena costituito, Pino Daniele ha collaborato 2 anni dopo).
Non mi era più capitato di cantare questa canzone.
Ieri, a casa di vecchi amici non scout, raccontando dei tempi andati e della route, abbiamo trovato su youtube i remake di Paolo e di un gruppo del Molise https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=reyt1qdlSx4 .
Mi sono commosso e sono riaffiorati tutti i ricordi di quei giorni e di quella serata, nitidi, precisi, intensi.
E' .... bellissimo

De dödsdömda
![De dödsdömda](img/upl/Sacco2BVanzetti2B.png)
d’après la version italienne de Riccardo Venturi
d’une chanson suédoise - De dödsdömda – Jan Hammarlund – 2008
Un poème de Karin Boye (1927)
mis en musique et chanté par Jan Hammarlund
Karin Boye (1900-1941).
La Grande Karin Boye, autrice de Kallocain, roman distopique qui anticipa 1984 de George Orwell, écrivit cette poésie en 1927 pour Sacco et Vanzetti. Le texte nous a été envoyé directement par l’ami Jan Hammarlund, que l’a mis en musique et chanté. [RV]
Le 22 août 2014 s’est déroulé à l’Istituto De Martino de Sesto Fiorentino, un important événement pendant lequel a été projeté le très rare et survivant film des enterrements de Sacco et de Vanzetti (présenté par l’Université Libertario de Florence). En marge, il m’est revenu à l’esprit que, en février 2008, j’avais traduit en italien cette chanson de Jan Hammarlund tirée d’une poésie de Karin Boye. La traduction nous la fîmes en réalité...
