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.
Una notte vicino al mare
Adriano Celentano Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
una notte vicino a te!
Quanti sogni vicino al mare,
quanti sogni vicino a te!
Ora nel cielo più nero non vedo che nuvole,
mi pare impossibile
ma tutto finì.
quanti baci vicino al mare,
Non potrò mai più dimenticare
quella notte vicino a te.
Una notte vicino al mare.
The song "Una notte vicino al mare" by Adriano Celentano speaks of a beautiful night spent near the sea, with the singer's beloved. The lyrics begin by creating a romantic atmosphere as the singer describes the magic of a night spent near the sea, the dreams that were shared between two people in love. The imagery is vivid, painting a picture of a beautiful night spent together under a starlit sky. However, the singer's joy is short-lived as he speaks of the clouds that have now taken over the sky, signifying the end of their love story. The singer laments the fact that the love they shared is now over, but the memories of that night will live forever in his heart.
The lyrics reveal that the singer has experienced a great love that was short-lived, but the memories of that night spent by the sea will remain etched in his mind forever. The song suggests that even though the love between the couple may have ended, the emotions and memories associated with that one night will always prevail. The song could be interpreted as a bittersweet love story, where the magic of a beautiful night spent near the sea is now tainted by the heartbreak of a love that has ended.
