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.
Un Bacio A Mezzanotte
Adriano Celentano Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Che ti morde col suo swing
È assai facile al knock out
Che ti fulmina sul ring
Fa l'effetto di uno choc
E perciò canto così
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Il tuo bacio è come un rock
I tuoi baci non son semplici baci
Uno solo ne vale almeno tre
E per questo bambina tu mi piaci
E dico, "Ba-ba-baciami così"
Il tuo bacio è come un rock
Che ti morde col suo swing
È assai facile al knock out
Che ti fulmina sul ring
Fa l'effetto di uno choc
E perciò canto così
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Il tuo bacio è come un rock
I tuoi baci non son semplici baci
Uno solo ne vale almeno tre
E per questo bambina tu mi piaci
E dico, "Ba-ba-baciami così"
Il tuo bacio è come un rock
Che ti morde col suo swing
È assai facile al knock out
Che ti fulmina sul ring
Fa l'effetto di uno choc
E perciò canto così
"Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Il tuo bacio è come un rock

In the chorus, he compares the kiss to a rock, which bites you with its swing and is easy to knock you out like on a ring. The effect of the kiss is compared to a shock that leaves him singing "Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh".
The second verse emphasizes the importance and value of her kisses, stating that just one of them is worth at least three normal kisses from other women. This shows the level of passion that he feels for her and why he wants her to continue to kiss him like that by saying, "Ba-ba-baciami così", meaning "kiss me like that."
Overall, the song conveys the power of the kiss and how it can leave a lasting impression on someone. It is a celebration of the intensity of passion and desire in a romantic relationship.

This is the translation from italian to english: "
At midnight you know
I will be thinking of you
Wherever you are, you are mine
And I'll clutch the pillow in my arms
As I search for your face
That splendid in the shadows will appear
I will seem to catch
A star in the midst of the heavens,
so you will not be far away
When you shine in my hand.
But I would not want you
At 12:03 a.m,
Are already thinking of another man.
I already feel lost
And my hand
Where you used to shine,
Has become a clenched fist, you know.
As bad as now
I never was,
And when midnight comes,
if you really love me,
think of me half an hour at least,
and from your clenched fist
A caress will be born.
And I will hold the pillow in my arms
While I will search for your face
That splendid in the shadows will appear.
But I would not want you
At twelve-three o'clock,
Are already thinking of another man.
I already feel lost
And my hand
Where you used to shine,
Has become a clenched fist, you know.
As bad as now
I never was,
And when midnight comes,
if you really love me,
think of me half an hour at least,
and from your clenched fist
A caress will be born"

Questa canzone mi riporta al cuore e alla mente il ricordo del mio papá che domani saranno 8 anni che non c'é piú. Ti piaceva tanto e me la ricordo mentre la cantavi in macchina. Risento la tua voce in queste parole. Veglia dal cielo su di noi...

Invece a me ricorda l'amore della mia, 3 anni, e dopo 52 anni, lui la cantava divinamente!

Quanto erano Belli gli Anni '60 non soltanto perché ero molto giovane ma perché si viveva un'Atmosfera Particolare di Scoperte e Novità. ❤❗

La mia mamma era pazza di Celentano lo canticchiava spesso e ogni volta che sentiva una sua canzone si emozionava.......
Sono già 4 mesi che mi ha lasciato e ora io sono alla ricerca di Lei anche attraverso queste canzoni.
Baci 😘 mamma
