He is probably best known internationally for the song Senza Una Donna, which is a duet with Paul Young and hit number 4 in the latter's native United Kingdom, where Zucchero has generally made little commercial impact, in 1991. He commenced his musical career in 1970 with his first single in 1976, and his first album in 1983. His music, in Italian, Spanish and in English, is largely inspired by gospel, blues and rock music, and alternates between syrupy ballads and more rhythmic boogie-like pieces. He sang several duets, in public or on disc, with Joe Cocker, Miles Davis, Paul Young, Andrea Bocelli, Sting, Luciano Pavarotti, Tom Jones, and Johnny Hallyday.
European hit singles include Il Volo (English version: My love), Cosi Celeste, Baila (sexy thing), Diamante (featuring soul singer Randy Crawford), and Wonderful World (with Eric Clapton). Zucchero's 2004 album ZU & Co features duets with Miles Davis, Paul Young, Sheryl Crow, The Cranberries's Dolores O'Riordan, B.B. King, John Lee Hooker, Maná, Brian May, and Sting. It has sold millions of copies throughout Europe and the world and entered the Billboard 200 charts after its release in the U.S. in the summer of 2005.
In July 2005, Zucchero took part in the Live 8 concerts in both Rome and Paris. In July 2006 Zucchero's new single 'Bacco Perbacco' was released. A new studio album, produced by Don Was will be released in September.
It's All Right
Zucchero Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
E avevo scarpe di cuoio
Me ne andai, respirando
D'amore io muoio
Cara baby, ciao, ciao, ciao
Non c'è un perché
Il ragazzo e triste
It's all right
It's all right
Giorni neri, giorni persi
Velati di sonno
Sempre uguali e diversi
Comunque che vanno
Cara baby, ciao, ciao, ciao
Ora come stai?
Io sto sempre uguale
Come vuoi che sto?
It's all right
It's all right
It's all right
It's all right
Tuo fino alla fine del mondo
Se pur con te o senza di te
Non posso vivere fino in fondo
Tuo fino alla fine del mondo, sì
Baby, baby it's all right
That's all
Mia nel cuore, nell'anima e nel fango
Seppur con me o senza di me
Non puoi vivere in fondo
Mia fino alla fine del mondo, sì
Baby, baby, it's all right
Lo sai
My baby, baby it's all right
Lo so
The song "It's All Right" by Italian artist Zucchero, is a melancholic love song that tells the story of a heartbroken man who wakes up one day with leather shoes on his feet, a symbol of his past life. He then sets out, struggling to come to terms with the fact that his love is lost, and he is dying of love, but eventually, he acknowledges that everything is all right. The pain and suffering that he has to endure are a part of his journey, and he accepts them for what they are.
The lyrics evoke a sense of despair, yet the repeated refrain "It's all right" provides a glimmer of hope. The singer seems to be coming to terms with the fact that he cannot control everything, especially when it comes to love. He tries to make sense of his feelings, asking his loved one how she is doing, and sharing his own state of mind with her, but ultimately he seems to resign himself to the situation.
The song's emotional depth is enhanced by the use of poetic language, such as "days lost, days veiled in sleep," and "yours until the end of the world." The use of repetition and basic chords also creates a sense of rhythmic complexity, which reflects the ups and downs of the singer's emotional journey.

Mi svegliai, scivolando
I woke up, slipping
E avevo scarpe di cuoio
