If a good song was enough
to make it rain love
we could sing it a million
a million times
if it was enough, if it was enough
we wouldn’t need much
to learn to love more
if a true song was enough
to convince other people
we could sing it louder
since they’re many people
if that was the case, if that was the case
we wouldn’t have to fight
to be heard more
if a good song was enough
to make people help each other
we could find it in our hearts
without going too far
if it was enough, if it was enough
there wouldn’t be
any need to beg
dedicated to all those who
are going off the rails
dedicated to all those who
haven’t had anything yet
and who have always been left out
dedicated to all those who
are waiting
dedicated to all those who
remain dreamers
and for that are getting lonelier and lonelier..
if a great song was enough
to talk about peace
we could call it by name
adding a voice to it
and another one and another one
until it turns into one color
more vivid than ever
dedicated to all those who are going off the rails
dedicated to all those who have tried to invent
a song to change things
dedicated to all those who
are waiting
dedicated to all those who
come up with too much wind
that time remained in it
(ORGAN CHIME)
in every sense
they believed, sought for and wanted
that it was so, that it was so …
they believed, sought for and wanted
that it was so
Se Bastasse Una Canzone -If a song was enough
Artist: Eros Ramazzotti (Italy)
Eros Walter Luciano Ramazzotti is an Italian pop singer, musician, and songwriter. He is my age (59) and we grew up together -he singing in the radio and I sitting in front of it, humming, dancing…dreaming.
He is popular in Italy and most European countries, and throughout the Spanish-speaking world, as he has released most of his albums in both Italian and Spanish. An international (sexy) superstar whose appeal spans not only Western Europe but also Latin America.
He is a best-selling Italian singer and songwriter with a very distinctive voice and a wide-ranging style that covers everything from adult contemporary to classical crossover.

Song lyrics and songs, poetry in melody. The earnestness and the message often reach us, yet we don’t live by it. Troubadours holding up a mirror for all of us to see our reflection.
What great lyrics! So, am I to assume you had (have) a bit of a crush on him? From that picture in the video it looks like he has great eyes. He definitely has a great voice!
Your assumption is spot on 🙂
😊
I’d like to hear Ramazzotti sing something with Andrea Bocelli. They’re two different kinds of singers, but both fabulous in their own way.
Once again you’ve introduced us to an artist we likely wouldn’t otherwise know. This is a beautiful song with a powerful message. I loved the photo of Ramazzotti and Tina Turner. 😀
He is a well-known name in Europe. It always surprised me that people here in the US don’t know him.
Beautiful! Great songs, like great poetry, do have the power to change lives and continue to lift us up whenever the darkness within the human psyche threatens to smother the light within each one of us. Thanks for sharing <3
I seem to read more poetry now, which is strange, but perhaps I really just need it.
I don’t find it at all strange <3
Very nice, thanks for sharing!!
A very powerful singer. Much enjoyed!
Wow! This is deep! Thank you for sharing ✨😊
