Alexia by name of Alessia Aquilani (born May 19, 1967) is an Italian singer. Before recording in Italian in the 2000s, she made records in English in the late 1990s. Many of those were international hits. Before her solo career she was the vocalist of Ice Mc.
She started working for Italian producer Roberto Zanetti (better known as Robyx) in 1990, as a back-up singer to several of Zanetti's eurodance acts, including Double You and Ice MC. In 1994, the whole world danced with the songs Think About the Way, which was later included in the soundtrack of the movie Trainspotting, It's a Rainy Day and Russian Roulette. In 1995 she had her first solo single, Me and You, on Zanetti's label, ZYX Music. This was followed by a variety of singles which were collected, along with original tracks, in her first album, Fan Club, published in 1997 by Sony Music's subsidiary Dance Pool. Summer is Crazy, Number One and Uh La La La are the most popular tracks from this album.
In her second album, The Party, Alexia started moving from eurodance to pop music. The most successful song, The Music I Like, is a clear eurodance track though. Happy is the title of her third album.
In 2002, she abandoned eurodance and started singing almost exclusively in Italian. She made her first appearance at the Sanremo Music Festival in 2002, coming second with Dimmi Come, and returned the following year, winning with "Per Dire di No".
In Italy, her most successful album was 2004's Gli Occhi Grandi Della Luna (Moon's eyes) which features the international hit You Need Love written by Diane Warren.
Alexia has sold over 6,000,000 albums worldwide.

Alexia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Avevo come quella voglia di morire
Pensavo alla mia vita ed alle mio paure
A volte mi sembrava come di cadere.
Ma forse avevo solo voglia di parlare
Ed è una gran fortuna se dio sta a sentire
Dividere il dolore salva dal dolore
C'est la vie baby c'est la vie
I don't wanna die devil set me free
C'est la vie baby c'est la vie
Scusa ma non posso io resto qui
Sai che in fondo non pensarci su
Come se quella notte non tornasse maì più
Mi confonde un pò anche se devrò
Dirti prima o poi che non sto bene
Non cercami più non tentarmi più
Non mi sento in pace mi tormenti tu
Sono salva in tempo ma stavolta no
Non hai campo libero...
Ho tolto tutta la polvere
Adesso tutto può splendere
Non ho più voglia di piangere
Ora che tu non ci sei.
Mi è sembrato di vederti qui e
Di senterti gridare come un pazzo così
Ma stavolta no tu non centri più
Sai la notte qui è sempre nera...
Quanta gente c'è tutta intorno a me
Che m'ha raccontato cose su di te
Provo a camminare e a non pensarci più
Ora che non posso più dormire.
Ma questa notte è da vivere
Non ho più voglia di andarmene
E tutto il resto può attendere
Ora che tu non ci sei
Finché ci sarà giorno con un altro sole
Finché ci sarà ancora voce per cantare
Finché ci sarà musica da ricordare
Io voglio stare viva il resto non conviende.
Finché ci sarà un giorno con un altro sole
Finché c'è chi si prende cura del mio cuore
Finché c'è qualcheduno che mi chiama amore
Io voglio stare viva il resto può aspettare

Line by Line Meaning
Siccome quella notte non ricordo bene
Since that night I don't remember well
Avevo come quella voglia di morire
I had that desire to die
Pensavo alla mia vita ed alle mio paure
I was thinking about my life and my fears
A volte mi sembrava come di cadere
Sometimes it felt like I was falling
Ma forse avevo solo voglia di parlare
But maybe I just wanted to talk
Ed è una gran fortuna se dio sta a sentire
And it's a great luck if God is listening
Dividere il dolore salva dal dolore
Sharing the pain saves from pain
Io voglio amar la vita è presto per partire...
I want to love life, it's too soon to leave...
C'est la vie baby c'est la vie
Such is life baby, such is life
I don't wanna die devil set me free
I don't want to die, devil set me free
Scusa ma non posso io resto qui
Sorry but I can't, I'll stay here
Sai che in fondo non pensarci su
You know, deep down, don't think about it
Come se quella notte non tornasse mai più
As if that night would never come back
Mi confonde un pò anche se devrò
It confuses me a bit even though I'll have to
Dirti prima o poi che non sto bene
Tell you sooner or later that I'm not well
Non cercami più non tentarmi più
Don't look for me anymore, don't tempt me anymore
Non mi sento in pace mi tormenti tu
I don't feel at peace, you torment me
Sono salva in tempo ma stavolta no
I'm saved in time but not this time
Non hai campo libero...
You don't have free field...
Ho tolto tutta la polvere
I removed all the dust
Adesso tutto può splendere
Now everything can shine
Non ho più voglia di piangere
I don't want to cry anymore
Ora che tu non ci sei
Now that you're not here
Mi è sembrato di vederti qui e
It seemed to me that I saw you here and
Di sentirti gridare come un pazzo così
To hear you shout like a madman
Ma stavolta no tu non centri più
But not this time, you don't matter anymore
Sai la notte qui è sempre nera...
You know, the night is always black here...
Quanta gente c'è tutta intorno a me
How many people are all around me
Che m'ha raccontato cose su di te
Who told me things about you
Provo a camminare e a non pensarci più
I try to walk and not think about it anymore
Ora che non posso più dormire
Now that I can't sleep anymore
Ma questa notte è da vivere
But this night is to be lived
Non ho più voglia di andarmene
I don't want to leave anymore
E tutto il resto può attendere
And everything else can wait
Finché ci sarà giorno con un altro sole
As long as there will be a day with another sun
Finché ci sarà ancora voce per cantare
As long as there will be a voice to sing
Finché ci sarà musica da ricordare
As long as there will be music to remember
Io voglio stare viva il resto non conviende.
I want to stay alive, the rest doesn't matter.
Finché ci sarà un giorno con un altro sole
As long as there will be a day with another sun
Finché c'è chi si prende cura del mio cuore
As long as there is someone taking care of my heart
Finché c'è qualcheduno che mi chiama amore
As long as there is someone who calls me love
Io voglio stare viva il resto può aspettare
I want to stay alive, the rest can wait
