BEAUTIFUL STORYTELLING!! Måneskin - Torna a casa REACTION

[@stefanomarzari4388]

Marlena probability symbolises the art, the music, the beauty. She saved him from desperation, but he now needs her, and when he doesn't feel her close (that is when he doesn't find his art, his music) he feels lost and desperate. Therefore he tells her "come back home" which means "always stay with me". Without his art he's afraid he disappears.

[@Billy__Joe]

Bravo! ✌

[@andyaulugo3331]

I'm agreed with you

[@nicolepriori6765]

Yes correct. Without her they are calm and still, but with her they are tempest

[@daigon81]

Correct, they explain in an interview that Marlena is the personification of the artistic inspiration

[@davidsweden6932]

That's pure perfection!!!Italy got the top everywhere this year, football, athletics, olimpic games, music😂😂😂😂

[@sheruffa6032]

many Italians do not believe in the legitimacy of this year of victories, they believe that there is an external hand implemented to compensate for the deprivations and oppression of the past, we think this way because unlike the legitimate victories this time there is no emotional resonance in the people. something broke and in my opinion there is something to worry about.

[@geura1997]

I'm proud of being italian because of maneskin🥺

[@SilviaPonzio]

Madlena, and it surprised me too ... even if it is a hypothesis, it is the union of the names MARia MaddaLENA = MARLENA (Mary Magdalene from the Bible). And you can see it partly from the text and partly from the details of the video. Maybe it's a publicity stunt but the music, lyrics, Damiano's voice and the video are spectacular. I cry every time I listen to it....

[@giampaolofava813]

Once Damiano said in an interview: anyone can interpret the songs in his own way...

[@antvilla72]

That was for CORALINE I guess

[@emma37140]

@@antvilla72 yes it was for coraline, because the interviewer asked him if Coraline talked about something real and what happened to Coraline. About Marlena Damiano said that she isn't a person, she is the spirit and the inspiration of Maneskin or something like that

[@Coldfire75]

Marlena Is his Muse. He talk about like the music save his Life. A strange boy in a cattolic and traditional nation....It's hard

[@Marco-gb5jx]

"Marlena Torna a casa" means "Marlena come back home". Marlena is a female name but in the song probably represents their inspiration, their muse. Throughout the song the singer is invoking her to come back home, so that they can go on with their art. Marlena in the video is represented as a hurt or ill woman who is not capable of coming back home

[@vpersiana]

My take is that before the music he was on the edge between being a victim (of the judgments of others) and a judge (judging others according to the canons of society), the bright and shiny chains are the prejudices, what's the norm in our society, which is comfortable but make you a prisoner of prejudice. Music sets him free.

[@alexgatti75]

Marlena is the music, the art, she convinced him to pack his things and leave, she consoled him when he was desperate, and he ask her to be with him again because without music he feels cold and he is afraid he'll disappear. To have her inspiration again and do music again he will climb all the heights even injuring his hands during the climb (covered in blood). Before he was a madman, desperate, and now he feel blessed. At least this is my interpretation

[@davideb2807]

Why can't be Marlena a real woman instead?

[@giovannasanchesmarin8281]

@@davideb2807 The band members said once in an interview that Marlena is their muse, their source of inspiration. Anyways it's up to you to interpret it like that.

[@davideb2807]

@@giovannasanchesmarin8281 sure, but the original concept comes from a a book by Julie Buntin, where Marlena was a girl. So the original inspiration comes from the figure of a girl ;-)

Damiano said that Marlena is his muse in this song.

[@iblamenaomi]

istfg i love måneskin and i appreciate your reaction so much but i couldn’t for the life of me keep my eyes off you. you have such a magnetic stare! will be watching more of your vids, i think i’m in love ;) x

[@starskeeper1]

I'm sure many people came here to tell you what the song is supposed to mean according to the band, but I feel sometimes it's nice to just enjoy a song for what it means to the listener, songs are conceived with an idea in mind, sure, but once they're out in the world we can all listen to it and just give it our own interpretation. So don't apologize for saying what the songs tells you, it's fun to research after, but keep those emotions it gave you 'cause they're only yours and should be cherished.

[@elviracolella6]

For a person being only 19 your thoughts are very deep. Looking forward to more of your reactions to Maneskin songs.

[@antea_doroty]

[@DulcisAbsentia]

MANESKIN shone the rock light on this world after so long. As a rock fan myself, I'm so happy

[@rositacervelli5424]

Damiano was very young when he wrote this song, he was bad student and he drems to became a singer. Marlena is his muse that save him to the depression and give him the success. Peolple judge him for is bad student career and he also judge this people, because a man his not only a student, in his heart there is more... Damiano is a poet and you must to hear his other songs as Coraline, Morirò da re, .... beautiful. In the album " Il ballo della vita" Marlena is present in many songs

[@clelia7820]

I really love your reaction and the way you struggle with the meaning. Everyone gets lost in the meaning, if they don't put together the fact that Marlena is the inspiration and the possibility to freely express himself with the music, and that Marlena (the inspiration) sometimes disappears. Marlena changed his life, made him throw behind him what oppressed and distressed him and, thanks to her, he is now able to face everything. Before she arrived "he was just a fool" who sometimes wanted to hurt himself or worse (cuts on his wrists) and who didn't care for himself. He felt like a victim and therefore judged probably without mercy, then Marlena arrived and, with her, the light that gave him a purpose and serenity.

[@annabel8125]

The part where you explained your thoughts with Marlena in heaven and the other person climbing up to see her is so beautiful. I think you already read what this song is supposed to mean, but this was your interpretation and I adore it. I never looked at „Torna a casa“ this way, so thank you for this!

[@ninitas64]

You will find the name Marlena in many songs of Maneskin...Marlena is the inspiration to write lyrics and music (muse)...now that you know who Marlena is, you can understand the song... love you from Milano❤

[@valentinamontana7921]

Having an opinion is the most amazing thing in the world. The problem is when people have no idea of how to express themselves. I could like something that you don't like, or viceverse, it's normal and it's fine. I can try to change your mind, you can try to change my mind, but even if that doesn't happen, it's fine too. I just think that people have no idea of what a healty discussion looks like (Some people say: if you have nothing nice to say, just don't say anything) Talking about the song, I'm happy that you like Maneskin and their amazing talent! Marlena is the personification of passion, inspiration, music, love, she's a muse. Maneskin's passion is music and Marlena is their muse. In this song apparently they lost Marlena and they were asking her to come back because without her they can't live. They're affraid to dissapear: Marlena torna a casa che ho paura di sparire. Have a nice weekend :)

[@gsicign]

Take into account that Marlena isn't a real person but she symbolises their muse. You should react also the video clip of this song very beatiful. At the begin of the video the dancer without her muse isn't able even to walk.

[@vincenzopiras9765]

Many people have said that Marlena is his muse, a personification of his artistic inspiration. However, it is important to note that Marlena is a portmanteau of the two names Maria (Mary) and Maddalena. So she is not simply his muse but for him and the rest of the group she has a real saving meaning, which is evident throughout the song. It is no coincidence that Damiano comes from a Catholic culture in which the protective figure of Mary is central (many churches or entire towns in Italy bear the name of Mary).

[@gennarodecandia5938]

Simply put, Marlena is the muse but she is not a woman, she is referring to music. In the text "marlena returns home" she speaks of her difficulty in composing texts because she has lost inspirations. However Marlena is back and also with arrogance.

[@sandramilanesi6084]

I love you and I like your reaction, of course I rispect all opinions

[@manumaster1990]

Esatto. (Exactly)

[@salvolondon]

You mean he , he’s the one writing lyrics in the group … not sure who among them write the music

[@gennarodecandia5938]

@@salvolondon It is Damiano who writes the texts.

[@ssanti66]

Marlena is Maneskin's muse, their art, their music. You'll find her in many many songs of theirs. With this in mind, you might want to listen to the lyrics again, with a different take. But art is up for interpretation, so yours is one more.

[@giorgioscano8980]

I congratulate you on your willingness and commitment in understanding the meaning of the text, others before me have already explained the meaning of the song (Marlena is the attitude, talent and inspiration, first uncertain, lost, then rediscovered , etc.), we can say that the Italian language is their fourth musical 'instrument', the truth is that for many reasons the beauty and expressiveness of a language different from the most common ones, such as English and Spanish, is never admitted. Opportunistic, commercial, and often ego reasons, this mechanism deprives everyone of something we could enjoy, this song, as well as 'Twenty Years' or 'Coraline' just to name a few of the Maneskin are the proof. The Italian discography has hundreds of almost unknown pearls beyond the Italian borders, perhaps the fault of the record companies, after all it doesn't matter, but know that there is much more to discover.

[@roxyglow9670]

I m italian and i live in South Korea ^ you are cute and i m glad you like this band 🖤 i suggest you " The fear of dark " live and " For your love "

[@salvolondon]

As others told you Marlena is not a real person , it’s the talent they have , that gave their life an amazing journey, and “she “ is missing at that moment . He’s telling the muse of writing to come back as without the talent he can’t live anymore .

[@scrittoreanonymous]

[@elistyles8352]

I'm Italian and this song is really beautiful. In Italy we also use it as a joke like: "Mom I'm going out with friends" and mom replies with: "Yes but don't be like Marlena who hasn't come home" ahahha it's funny sometimes

[@TheMule71]

My interpretation: the song tells the story of the relationship between an artist and his inspiration (or Muse) he calls Marlena. He was rejected by society, Marlena saved him. He went on a journey with her (and he would stay with her forever of course) but at some point she left, and he's calling her back. In the video, the "broken" ballerina is the artist. She slowly comes to life (at the start of the video she's basicly dead) thanks to the Muse (the second ballerina).

[@keenian6164]

now see at video... it's amazing the mix of music, words and video!

[@delfme1872]

Marlena is not a woman but the symbol of creativity and freedom: “I’m left with a paper and half a cigarette”. They wanted to give it a name and face

Everybody talk about Marlena as the art, the music and definitely his muse. But she can represent perfectly "the woman of your life" as well. Also, the concept comes from the book "Marlena" by Julie Buntin, where Marlena is a girl with a strong personality who made her girlfriend to discover the world

Marlena is them muse/ inspiration personalise as Marlena that why "she" is often mentioned in them songs..very important for them as artists..they done a beautiful video about this song too. You just at the the beginning of getting to know this band. I see this in many reactors and some of them that are much forward they are now at the point were they have a real respect and admiration for them. Do you know that they have also a sort of movies about them first tour? In that tour/ video you can see how serious and determin is the band and the hard work is behind every song... In this days they have cooperate with Iggy Pop in UWBYS.. 🖤

Marlena can be thought to be a soul and the song is about dying and the soul returning to home.

Marlena is the inspirational muse of the band. If you try to listen and read again the lyrics of the song knowing that, maybe you can understand better the overall meaning. And then you can watch the video, which is worth too. 🙂

[@redreliever]

Under one reaction video the uploaders asked how a reaction could be more enjoyable for all when you want or have to care of the lyrics too. There were two main solutions given. To me almost equivalent. I'd prefer the video before, then the lyrics (edited or full lenght, I'd prefer full lenght). Someone else preferred before the lyrics, then the video. Now I realize that more and more people are witnessing blocks due to continuous copyrights infringements. My suggestion is to blur the video. If still blocked add some sound distortion. People who love the artists know what's in the video. They can kinda see and hear what's actually hidden.

They relised an EP (mostly covers), a sophomore first album "Il ballo della vita" (an original concept album of different music genre with a recurring name of Marlena showing different way of art expression as in the other comments) and a 2nd album "Teatro d'ira. Vol I" (rock) about freedom of expression, identity etc. The way to write lyrics for the songs in the second album is different: more essential and direct so it helps to understand the meaning of them. So, well done for your reaction
