Come Adriano
Don Backy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
E se non so cosa fare,imito quelli che lo fa già
Come Adriano ora faccio e vedo se va
Vedo se posso cantare come lui fa
Ora sei rimasta sola
Piangi e non ricordi nulla.....
Ecco lui muove la faccia,la gente ride,chissà perchè
Canta il suo pezzo più bello,piange con te,mi chiedo perchè
E sono certo il successo,mi arriverà
Questo ragazzo della via Gluck
Si divertiva a giocare con me
Ma un giorno disse,vado in città
E lo diceva,mentre piangeva........
Ma non c'è niente da fare,questo ragazzo della via Gluck
No,non si può imitare,non puoi toccare chi stà più sù
Forse son io che non valgo e non so cantare
Faccio due smorfie mi muovo,riuscirò
La la la la la la la la la la la................................
The lyrics of Don Backy's song "Come Adriano" depict a struggling artist who is seeking to make money by imitating the successful singer Adriano Celentano. The lyrics suggest that the singer believes that if he can imitate Celentano, he too can achieve success and gain financial stability. However, the lyrics also convey a sense of frustration and self-doubt as the singer realizes that he may never be as successful as Celentano. The line "forse son io che non valgo e non so cantare" (perhaps it's me who is not worth it and can't sing) suggests that the singer questions his own talent and ability to succeed in the music industry.
The song also touches on themes of loneliness and nostalgia, as the singer recalls a friend from his past ("questo ragazzo della via Gluck") who left to pursue a career in the city. The lyrics suggest that the singer feels left behind and frustrated by his own lack of success.
Overall, "Come Adriano" is a poignant and reflective song that touches on themes of self-doubt, nostalgia, and the pursuit of success. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and uncertainty, while also suggesting that there is hope and potential for success for those who are willing to work hard and persevere.

Here he sings (and speaks) with Adriano (Celentano). If I know well they were great friends for a while.
