In 1994, Sepe recorded Vite Perdite, which was much more successful than any of his previous niche recordings. It was dubbed album of year by Rockerilla, one of the one hundred greatest albums of the 1990s by Rockstar[disambiguation needed], and received a rave review from Folk-Roots, an English magazine.
L'ammore 'o vero
Daniele Sepe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Io 'ngopp all'acqua cammenass 'a pere
'E viecchie addeventassero criature
E 'a pietto scumparesse ogni paura
Se overo fuss tu l'ammore eterno
Restasse 'a primmavera pur 'a vierno
Nun s'addurmesse l'orso fino a marzo
E 'a gente nun dicesse ca so pazz'
Se overo fuss tu l'ammore eterno
Restasse 'a primmavera pur 'a vierno
Nun s'addurmesse l'orso fino a marzo
E 'a gente nun dicesse ca so pazz'
Magari fuss tu l'ammore overo
'Ngopp all'acqua cammenass 'a pere
'E viecchie addeventassero criature
E 'a pietto scumparesse ogni paura
The song L'ammore 'o vero by Daniele Sepe speaks about the elusive and powerful nature of true love. The lyrics express a longing for an everlasting love that transcends time and seasons. The singer wishes that if true love exists, it should help overcome obstacles, fear, and doubts in life, and that it should keep the vitality of Spring intact even in Winter.
The lyrics also embody a desire for ageless love. If love could be eternal, then even old-aged people could feel young and vibrant like children. The line "E 'a pietto scumparesse ogni paura" (And fear would disappear from our steps) highlights the idea that love can work as a shield that protects us from anxiety and uncertainty.
The use of metaphors is quite evident in the song. Walking on water (Io 'ngopp all'acqua cammenass 'a pere) signifies the bravery and conviction that true love gives us. The song also mentions a bear not hibernating until March, which could indicate that true love can make even the impossible possible.
Overall, L'ammore 'o vero is a song that embodies a deep sense of yearning for eternal and transformative love that can bring out the best in us, no matter what our age may be.
