Heavily influenced by his idol, Elvis Presley, and the 1950s rock revolution, he is also known as the most famous dancer of the Hula hoop fad. For the last 40 years he has retained his popularity in Italy, selling millions of records and appearing in numerous TV shows and movies (including a short appearance in Fellini's La Dolce Vita, before becoming a famous artist). In the latter respect, he has also been a creator of a comic genre, with his characteristic walking and his facial expressions. For the most part, his films were commercially successful, in fact in the 1970s and part of the 1980s, he was the king of the Italian box office in low budget movies. As an actor, critics point to Serafino (1968), directed by Pietro Germi, as his best effort.
As a director he frequently casts Ornella Muti, Eleonora Giorgi and his wife Claudia Mori. His best movie like director is "Yuppi Du", winner of The Golden Palm at Cannes Festival. He and Claudia are the parents of Rosita, Rosalinda and Vincent Celentano, the latter most notable to worldwide audiences for playing the Satan character in Mel Gibson`s The Passion of the Christ. He also works often as a host for several Italian television shows.
His 1968 song "Azzurro" has regained popularity in 2006, due to it being the anthem of the Italian national football team (the Azzurri) who won the 2006 FIFA World Cup. The artist Vincent Fiorello has also created a remix of the song.
His last concert-event in 2012, after 18 years without live performances, was transmitted on Canale 5, with over 9 million viewers both evenings.
Ciao amore
Adriano Celentano Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Da domani senza sogni resterò
in vacanza vuole andarsene il mio cuore
Ciao, ciao amore dei raggi tuoi mi scorderò
Per me solo prenderò l'arcobaleno
Griderò per questa mia felicità
Ciao, ciao, ciao amore ti saluto ciao amore
Sorridendo per il mondo me ne andrò Nella rete non cadrà mai più il mio cuore
ciao, ciao amore ciao, ciao amore
ciao, ciao amore bambina mia good bye!
The lyrics of Adriano Celentano's song "Ciao Amore" are both touching and nostalgic. The singer says goodbye to his lover and his dreams, as he goes on vacation without her. He acknowledges that his heart wants to leave, and he will forget her rays. However, he takes only the rainbow and happiness, and he shouts for his joy. The chorus repeats the words goodbye several times while the singer tries to put on a brave face, smiling as he walks away from his love. The singer signals that he is moving on, and his heart will not be ensnared again. In the closing, he bids farewell to his darling, saying “goodbye little girl."
The song evokes memories of lost love and the pain of moving on. The singer is trying to find happiness without the girl he loves. He is coming to terms with the realization that their relationship has ended, and his heart is going away. Despite his pain, he chooses to focus on the good things in his life, as symbolized by the rainbow. Furthermore, he bids farewell to the woman whom he still loves but knows it's time to go, despite the pain.
