"Ancora Qui" by Ennio Morricone and Elisa Toffoli (lyrics and translation) - "Django Unchained" OST

[@Corvo80]

Fun fact. This is actually a first-recording demo version Elisa sent to Tarantino before movie post-production. Tarantino liked it so much that he didn't want any other versions and included it in the movie as it was.

Elisa wrote this song for a childhood friend of hers who died of leukemia. It's both beautiful and incredibly sad.

[@madisonc9923]

The great musical genius Ennio Morricone left our world today. It is an appropriate day to again embrace this stunning piece of art. Elisa's words are equally as beautiful as Morricone's melody. The song has always made me cry, but today the tears won't cease. RIP great maestro, you will never be forgotten.

[@victorfoley1013]

I lost my father to cancer a few years back, you are not alone

[@akinojest]

I lost my grandfather to cancer in 2018 although he wasn’t my biological grandfather I still looked at him as my Father as my Dad was in prison for the first 7 years of my life. Even after my Dad got out my Pop was still my Father in my eyes all the way until he passed. It’s 2023 and I’m still not over it and I listen to this song without knowing the English translation and I break down in tears, then I read the lyrics and bawl my eyes out because I finally understand why.. I’m sorry if this seemed meaningless or confusing it’s just apart of the healing process.. Much love to all healing from any pain in this cruel world and I am so sorry for anything you’ve been through let Jesus Christ guide you and show you the love you deserve

[@Hughjaoses8766]

I've learned to sing this song as an English speaker and I feel I can appreciate the emotion so much more

[@josifkaramazov84]

It'd be amazing! Elisa deserves more international acknowledgement. She's one of the most eclectic singer-songwriters/musician in the world. The only reason for which she's not more popular is that she's as humble as she's skilled: she doesn't look for success at all costs. Anyway, she's so talented that, just like in this case, sometimes her songs are noticed abroad (Dancing, Rock Your Soul, Labyrinth, Love is requited, Ancora qui). I hope she'll be in the gotha of music, in the future.

Sono Italo-Americano, il mio babbo mi ha insegnato come parlare italiano quando ero piccolo. Ho imparato leggere e scrivere nel liceo. Lui e' morto adesso ma ancora pratico il mio italiano onorare lui. Questa canzone e' bellissima mi fai cosi triste la piccola ragazza canta molta angelica!

for those who don't know she is one of the most successful italian singer, with more than 15 years career. She usually sings in english, even though she's italian. I love Elisa especially when she sings live.. i really want everyone to go and check out some live performances, she is unbelievable! I am proud to be italian even if we are in a very bad situation at the moment.. we still have great minds, artists and people that are struggling to express themselves! VIVA LA BELLA ITALIA

just for you to know. The singer, Elisa, she's the same one who sang the heartbreaking song "Dancing" used both in the movie "A time for dancing" and in the show "So you think you can dance".She's amazing. And the combination with Morricone's music is so powerful.

[@leovalencio8368]

The melody is beautiful and the singer has such a sweet and soft voice! Quentin Tarantino always chooses the best songs for his movies...

Forse non capiranno il testo ma la musica di Morricone è un linguaggio globale che non si può non capire. Questo pezzo è un capolavoro vero! :) Comunque hai ragione, Tarantino ha fatto un grande omaggio al cinema italiano!

Totally right, Ennio Morricone deserves an Oscar. He should have won also for Once Upon a Time in Amerca, but because a technical error he was even not nominated.
