“By now I have understood that there is a part of Italy that dotes on me and another that can’t stand me.” Albano Carrisi roars like a wounded lion and thus reacts to whistles of the spectators at the Olimpico.
The crooner from Cellino San Marco performed before the final of Italian Cup Between Juventus And Atalantasinging theMameli’s anthem accompanied by Rockin’ 1000. A performance that was not very popular, both considering the freezing temperatures in the stands (repeatedly called by Al Bano to respond to his “Italy!”, an appeal that fell on deaf ears), and above all the real-time comments on X, the former Twitter .
“This also happened to Christ, let alone to someone poor Christian like me”, quips Al Bano the next day, commenting on the story with the agency LaPresse. Live, many noticed one of his gesture of annoyance with his hand in the direction of the too cold fans. In the end, in short, his nervousness seems to have prevailed.
“I sang because I know I can sing but honestly it was so much excitement and noise that I didn’t understand anything – Mr Carrisi justifies himself today -. But the desire to sing and not listen was great because it was worth it. It was an experience that I missed. If I have fence? Yes, I admit it, I’m the first to say it also because the voice has gone a little and – when you don’t hear – the voice goes away on his own business.”
“Enthusiasm is crazy, it remains imprinted in your memory. Singing in a stadium among the fans? If it’s a concert your fans come to see you, they come to the stadium to watch two matches and there’s a part against something else that is inevitable. Would I do this experience again? I know it’s hard. I like to experience what it feels like to do impossible things.” Chapeau.
