METALHEAD REACTS| FRANCO BATTIATO - VOGLIO VEDERTI DANZARE (live)

[@marcodeambrogio4290]

Franco Battiato is “the Master”….we miss him so much…

[@paolaloi6678]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@daniele.salvoldi]

We do

[@Noname-wj7dw]

This song is anthropology and oriental meditation. It is about Gurdjieff and his dances that involved the whole body in complex movements designed to control and relax in order to achieve enlightenment. As with 'The Cure', the meaning is almost always esoteric in Battiato's songs.

[@giampaoloargentesi5484]

I saw Franco Battiato at the theater in a memorable concert; his voice, his speeches, his music, his charisma; all together created a magical atmosphere. Unforgettable.

[@blissdelpopolo6322]

did so as well when i was about 11/12 (now im 25) , a theatre as well, twas one of the times he played with the orchestra of our city; had the luck to shuffle thro some crowd, shake his hand , tell him how much his music meant to me and even get an autograph(total luck because with all the peeps wanting to say hi he had a low chance to sign up stuff in that occasion, literally the whole theatre wanted to say hi as soon as he sat to listen to the final asset of the concert, which was some symphonic music; and he was nice and collected about it); then saw him again in a square concert(he loved those) when i was like 18 or 19. I m also pretty sure it was one of the last times he made a concert, right before he got very sick; so i lucked out again on it. 11/12 was also the same time frame in which my school orchestra got us to sing a couple of times with roberto vecchioni in full blown concerts.

[@WiZe1972]

I usually don’t like those “reaction” video that seems so staged but you are different, you are genuine. Also, I’m ashamed to say this as I’m Italian but you made me rediscover Battiato, now I’m obsessed with him, thank you!

[@lorenzopinto7948]

The infinite joy of music: I, an Italian, who at this moment am in the Azores islands to escape from a homeland that I no longer like, and you, an American, who reminds me of the lost beauty of what I loved and what I owe try not to forget. Thank you. 🙂 Your beloved grandmother can be proud of you. You are doing a good job.

[@almanapoli8383]

C'è tanta roba dietro i testi di Battiato, tanta cultura ♥️ , bisogna solo togliersi il cappello e chinare il capo di fronte a tanta GRANDEZZA ❤️ Maestro mi manchi 😭🌹

[@arcanorium1602]

Franco Battiato is the teacher, the philosopher, the free thinker. An absolute sensitive artist. : D each of his songs is a hymn to thought.

[@cordisco.michele]

Una persona umile e fantastica che ci ha regalato canzoni e poesie meravigliose ❤️❤️❤️🙏

[@C....R]

Legendary song! You see, dear Ang, slowly slowly we are makings you listen all Battiato's songs 🥰 thank you for spreading Battiato ♥️

[@victorfries8859]

At this point we just need a reaction to the mainstream ones: 'Bandiera Bianca' (White flag), and "Cuccuruccucu" (im sure i've just written this one wrong lol)

[@leaf6708]

Classe, eleganza antica e canzoni stupende...Immenso Franco Battiato❤ Angelo today you are more beautiful than ever 😍

[@GrandHotel.SeagullMagique]

Franco came from another planet, really. In 1982 in Italy, no one would even spoken about anklets, Orient, Balinese dancers in a pop song: only Franco could do it! PS: please react to his early music, I suggest the wonderful Propriedad prohibida (1974) or Areknames (1972) with words backwards.

[@giuseppevitale1966]

Il grandissimo Maestro Battiato ...Musica senza confini ......❤❤❤

[@silviaricci3593]

".... E gira tutto intorno alla stanza, mentre si danza! " So freaking amazing!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@denisghirardello8279]

Bravo! You can never go wrong with Battiato ....great artist and a nice human being, too bad he's no longer with us as precious people like him are rare to find.

[@DavideDevoti]

Battiato has been The Genius of italian music

[@skyjuke2006]

Beautiful song by a great artist who mixed very very well pop music and culture.

[@herrgado]

Hi! Rudi here. Thank you for doing this. The link I provided was the original video but this one is ok too, i was just afraid that on another video other than the original the viennese walzer at the end got lost but luckly that wasn't the case. Maybe one thing would have been worth watching was the "introduction" at the beginning. And of course Battiato's dance!

[@DrDonnie]

E' bellissimo vedere qualche straniero apprezzare il maestro. Sei un grande.

[@ciacimacaci]

"strani giorni" and "tra sesso e castità" are my favorite songs

[@miciogatto29]

David Rodher alla chitarra, chitarrista dei talk talk e di Peter Gabriel, era entusiasta di poter lavorare con il maestro.

[@Minosse-]

Caro Amico , Franco Battiato era un Maestro di musica...era il maestro, l'album : La voce del padrone, uscito in Italia nel settembre 1981 , ha sbaragliato tuti .... ed è ancora attuale, Il maestro si cimentava con musiche spsrimentali, ma era un grande artista, colto, completo

[@gilgamesch9272]

La voce del padrone che capolavoro ,ricordo che tutti gli italiani cantavano un brano di questo album ,fantastici tempi

[@MircoTiberi78]

ORGOGLIO ITALIANO 🇮🇹

[@mariellanitti6315]

Maestro ❤

[@susannaeffe9301]

I saw him 13 times in concert... We miss him too much

[@paolalombardozzi3253]

Che invidia

[@masterjunky863]

Che fortuna

[@rosselladimonda3629]

Next step is 'La voce del padrone'. I still haven't decided which is the best song of the album. Maybe I will never decide. 'Centro di gravità Permanente' or 'Summer on a solitary beach'? 'Bandiera bianca' or 'Cuccuruccucú'? Or maybe 'Gli uccelli'? I don't know!! I just know that it is One of the best Italian records of all times. Maybe the best. I love Battiato!😍 Thanks Angelo!!!!!

[@luciaciaurro9151]

Oggi, un anno fa moriva Franco Battiato. Una canzone che amo "E ti vengo a cercare"

[@sandrogattorno4962]

For those who love music, age is an absolutely relative concept :)

[@tomorrowmely3624]

The song is not necessarily a romantic song, it's actually much more that that: there's some kind of higher purpose. This was the case of practically all of his songs. There's a philosophical intent. Here, he's singing about the universal aspect of dance that reunites people and sometimes becomes a spiritual moment.

[@jeremierossi82]

What not much people know, it's that battiato was a great spiritual student, and when he found goudjieff, he descovered the 4rd way, and applicate in all his life, and he put those message in ALL his discografy, and people today sing of ancient secret about PRECENCE, but he dont know ABOUT IT, when they sing battiato songs

[@bstefano79]

Franco is actually called Francesco, but they decided to present him as Franco in his first TV appearance, to better distinguish him from Francesco Guccini who also appeared on TV for the first time in the same show. From that day on everyone called me Franco - the musician will remember - even my mother

[@65alef]

Un autentico signore . Per sempre grande Maestro Battiato

[@matteopesce7405]

never clicked on a video so fast

[@panosefstathiadis-wi3to]

Haha, you are awesome! I like how you go from Hatari to Battiato (and many more...). Franco was one of the most adventurus composers, arrengers, conductors ever set foot on earth. Glad you enjoyed his uniqueness

[@koshaprem8576]

Thank you for your videos Ang. You make me realize how lucky I ve been in my youth, since I could listen to almost all these artists in live concerts. W la musica! And best wishes to u and your beloved ones ❤

[@graziasapori2748]

Dear Ang, marry Christmas and Happy new year to your mum, your daughter and to all you love!

[@renatapecci5714]

Love it! Music from the Balcans mixes perfectly with classical and ethnic ones. This blending is powerful, the change in rhythm is typical of a lot of Battiato songs. He mentions different themes in the lyrics and then music changes to represent what he sings about. Extraordinary genius 💯👏

[@raffaellanegri3745]

Beh lui è stato uno studioso di Gurdjieff. Fin dal video di centro di gravità... Si vede. Lui aveva una cultura infinita e la fame di un sapere profondo.

[@docholl93]

The sing that i just love about Battiato as a performer is in that he looks like your history teacher with his glasses, jacket, shirt and then BOOM BITCH HE DROPS THE DANKEST SHIT

[@victorfries8859]

😆😂✌️👏 I AGREE 100%

[@dangi79]

He was a genius. Half of Italian musicians were inspired by Battiato.

[@marinaparigiani4090]

merry xmas madang ! May the new year bring to you and family the very best.

[@MadAng66]

Awh you too thank you

[@giuseppemastria2729]

the guitar player in this video is David Rhodes from Peter Gabriel's band

[@DXtrh]

Man it's a shame you couldn't find the original video, it has so much to say! But still appreciate it, great job as always

[@Claudia-rb4jp]

Thanks, Mad, for loving our Italian artists ❤ Franco Battiato has been the greatest poet, philosopher of Italian song. His texts are a source of teaching and spiritual reflexion for everyone. A greeting and a hug from Venice 🇮🇹 Where are you from, Mad?

[@victorfries8859]

Easily one of my favourites. Reminds me of my mother... Thanks for the reaction to this one! Edit: i feel that, about your granny... I send you a virtual hug!

[@giobat8994]

I have to admit that I like only a few songs of Battiato, but at the same time I have to admit that he was a real Grand-Master.

[@fabriziofalchi4468]

Grazie e buon Natale .

[@pa4748]

This is the best.......but you have to listen Centro di gravità permanente

[@gilgamesch9272]

Centro di gravità permanente sarebbe una grande raction

[@gianluigidevito4034]

Please, react to "aver paura di innamorarsi troppo" of Lucio Battisti, one of the greatest Italian singers

[@D.A.8838]

before italian he is sicilian, so very proud of him

[@andreacasini9707]

Goodbye poet, thank you for having translated the deepest human thoughts into musia

[@gabritata8359]

Amazing song😍 and Chamaleontic Artist...Thank you from Italy😙😚

[@maresca1415]

“Il Mantello E La Spiga” by Battiato is His most similar heavy rock song!

[@laspilly]

Also Shock in my town

[@maresca1415]

@@laspilly yes but I think that “il mantello e la spiga”’ is less “pop” than “shock in my town”

[@espitaliaonest]

Battisti great man!

[@giovanniannese6322]

Actually, Battiato used to be a kind of metalhead in youth, with black hair and beard.

[@malaconca]

If you want to listen to someheavy Franco Battiato go get a listen on "gommalacca", produced by Madasky, one of the craziest musician in Italy during 90's. I suggest you "shocking in my town", my favourite song from Battiato. A small amount of his story, he started in the 70' doing wild experimental electronic music,then in the 80's he transpose those experiments in pop music destroing chart with almost every song. Some songs from the 80's are still played and remixed and he had an ENORMOUS impact on musical culture in Italy. That's why we call him ''IL MAESTRO'' and we really miss him.

You should listen to “Shock in my town” (crazy song!) or “Tra sesso e castità”!

[@mafaldarusso6441]

Sonorità balcaniche, celtiche, arabe ed orientali....Battiamo era un erudito della musica, un filosofo. Nelle sue canzoni ci sono citazioni dai testi sacri di varie religioni e meshup di suoni e strumenti di tutte le culture del mondo.....Sono dovuti arrivare i Maneskin perché il mondo si accorgesse della musica italiana (non quella mainstream, pop e commerciale di quei quattro cantanti conosciuti all'estero, ma di tutti quelli che hanno fatto la storia della nostra musica)

[@davidefuochetti1063]

io non sono un loro fan ma perché "incolparli"? chi conosce il rock sa che lacuna coil e pfm hanno avuto molto successo all'estero,gli appasionati di certe sonorità li ascoltano in tutto il mondo...i maneskin hanno avuto un exploit inaspettato e BENVENGA!

[@mafaldarusso6441]

@@davidefuochetti1063 no, no.... io non li incolpo, anzi! La mia è una semplice costatazione: senza il clamore suscitato dai successi internazionali dei Maneskin non ci sarebbero negli ultimi tempi tante reaction ad altri artisti italiani di indubbio spessore (anche rispetto a tanti artisti stranieri che vanno per la maggiore) che purtroppo non sono conosciuti oltre i confini della lingua italiana.... e se queste reazioni possono favorire anche un ampliamento di notorietà per i nostri "mostri sacri" va benissimo.... mi spiace per tutti quelli stranieri che si sono persi vere e proprie opere d'arte perché non ci hanno mai tenuti in considerazione musicalmente, a parte per certe canzoni un po' kitsch e "folkloristiche"....

[@gilgamesch9272]

hai visto il film di Pif "caro Battiato"su rai 3 ?Molto bello intenso tra il racconto di amici di Battiato il suo carattere e le sue canzoni .

[@eliolupini7771]

OPS ho inserito il link di "la cura" ascolta "E ti vengo a cercare" un brano molto profondo.

[@gvisir]

Hope you get better soon, merry xmas

Listen also Il Re del mondo, from Battiato. Absolutely awesome.

[@MrENRAP]

I would suggest, if you have never listened to a song, to always listen to the original recording on the disc, before the live version

[@piro18683]

Il Maestro ❤

[@masterjunky863]

You were right about the slowness of the song, because the original is slow, this live version is different.
