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).

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.

Non vivo più, non voglio più l'amore
Perchè l'amor vuol dire amar solo te
Voglio soffrir, soffrire tutti odiare
Dimenticar cosa sei stata per me

Furooooreeee
Che spenga in me tutto il dolor
Di quest'amor

Furooooreeee
Tutto di te quello che tutto odio scordar

Non vivo più, non amo più nessuna
Nessuna mai potrò più amar dopo te
Voglio morir per non soffrir ancora
Perchè soffrir vuol dir amar sempre te

Furooooreeee
Che spenga in me tutto il dolor
Di questo amor
Furooooreeee
Tutto di te quello che tutto odio scordar

Non vivo più, non amo più nessuna
Nessuna mai potrò più amar dopo te
Voglio morir per non soffrir ancora
Perchè soffrir vuol dir amar sempre te
Perchè soffrir vuol dir amar sempre te

Perchè soffrir vuol dir amar sempre te
Perchè soffrir vuol dir amar sempre te

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Adriano Celentano's song "Furore" ("Fury" in English) express a strong sense of pain and anger that the singer is experiencing due to a failed love relationship. The first verse conveys the message that the singer will no longer live or love anymore because love only means loving one person, and that person has caused him so much pain that he wants to forget what she meant to him. However, the chorus, which is repeated twice, shows the intensity of the singer's emotions. He asks for fury to come and extinguish the pain caused by this love, and at the same time, he also wishes that he can forget everything he hates about his ex-lover.

The second and third verses have similar messages, with the singer declaring that he will never love again after this person, and he would rather die than experience this pain again. The final lines of the song underline the theme of the pain of love, with the singer expressing that suffering means loving that person, whether he wants it or not.

Overall, this song is a vivid expression of the emotions attached to a failed relationship, the feelings of pain and anger associated with a love that cannot move forward.
