REACTING TO IRAMA ‘OVUNQUE SARAI’ (FIRST LISTEN)

[@graziellaacquarola7450]

This song from Irama was written for his grandmother that passed away

[@rominaolivieri4179]

If you lost someone you loved very much and listen to this, understanding the lyrics.. it’s intense. Painful. And so beautiful. And also the video makes sense.

[@Gaga72-z9b]

Finalmente hai commentato questa meravigliosa canzone dedicata alla scomparsa della nonna. Bravissima!

[@jennylee8725]

Irama talento incredibile ❤️

[@Sara-bg1kz]

I am really happy Brividi won, but this song deserved to be higher during the final night, I hope Irama will win Sanremo Festival one day, his songs are always beautiful. I hope you checked out also "La genesi del tuo colore" by Irama from Sanremo 2021.

[@alesd6215]

The skill of this guy you appreciate much more in the performances of Sanremo

[@Barbara_M.]

The first time I heard the song during Sanremo Festival I wasn't paying much attention and I totally misread its meaning however since the second listen I was hooked. As someone who has lost at a very early age a person that was fundamental in my life I totally identify with the song lyrics and ihis live performance... he delivered with so much emotion it was impossible not being pulled in....

[@AlioH89]

Another one Ive listened to loads over the past few months. So beautiful.

Irama - Ovunque Sarai (Official Video) [Sanremo 2022] 🤔 English translation If you are wind you will sing If you are water you will shine If you are what I will be And if you are time I will wait for you forever If you are light you will warm If you are moon I will see you And if you are here I won’t know But if it’s you, I’ll feel it

[@XivSara]

Wherever you are, wherever I am In every gesture I’ll look for you If you are not there I will understand And in the silence I will listen to you If I’m on the ground you will raise me If it’s cold you will burn And I know you can hear me Where every soul has a color And every tear has your name If you come back here, if you ever You know I’ll be waiting for you Wherever you are, wherever I am In every gesture I’ll look for you If you are not there I will understand And in the silence I will listen to you I will listen to you If you are wind you will sing 😐

[@Gaga72-z9b]

You are the best that I listen to with great pleasure. it shows that you know and love music and you are very very competent managing to capture every particular peak beyond the emotion of the singer's voice. I just hope you can react more to other Italian songs because they deserve your review. A big kiss on your heart!

[@zsokapados5197]

Great video as always! I love Irama's music and voice so much. He was my favourite in Sanremo not just in 2022, but in 2021 and 2019 too ! A lot of his songs has a deep message! I love that.

[@Yarshy.]

An absolute gem of a song 😍😍😍😍 it's so raw and I love it

[@valentina-uw5qm]

Thank you for reacting. I suggest to read the translation, so the video and of course the song will sound even more intense, cuz it's dedicated to his grandmother who passed away

[@adicweinfelden]

Your reactions are always the most professional. You make a real musical analysis of the song. The only think that I can’t believe is that it is the first time you listen to this song. Thank you

[@alipanroosendaal9503]

What a treat that was. Emotionally strong but neatly avoided descending into a lachrymose tangibility. I liked the almost Arabic sound to his wailing. It lead the listener into the realm where life and death commune. BTW - No rail strike down your way!

[@ThePeaceAround]

Yes, no rail strike! thankfully

[@edyberto9984]

La canzone parla del cuore e suo desiderio utopico di trovare i cari amori defunti ( persone ) , amore e ragione si scontrano. " Lo so che io non ti troverò, ma io ti sentirò e ti cercherò ovunque tu sarai"

[@virtualgodwin9088]

Thanks for the reaction to Irama, even if unfortunately, youtube does not put automatic subtitles and I could not understand your comment well. However, the live version in Sanremo is much more beautiful, much more appreciable. In my opinion this song deserved more -- Grazie per la reazione a Irama, anche se pultroppo, youtube non mette i sottotitoli automatici e non ho potuto capire bene il tuo commento. Comunque la versione dal vivo a Sanremo è molto più bella, molto più apprezzabile. Secondo me questa canzone avrebbe meritato di più

[@johnoliver2022]

Amazing Song. It has been written for his granny who died by COVID ... The song is a master piece... If you are wind, you will sing If you are water, you will shine If you will be what I will be And if you have time, I'll wait for you Forever If you are light, you will warm If you are moon, I will see you And if you'll be here, I won't know But if it's you, I'll feel it Wherever you will be, wherever I will be In every gesture I will look for you If you are not there, I will understand And in the silence I will listen to you If I am on the ground, you will get me up If it gets cold, you will burn And I know you can hear me Where every soul has a color And every tear has your name If you come back here, if ever, you know that I'll wait for you Wherever you will be, wherever I will be In every gesture I will look for you If you are not there, I will understand And in the silence I will listen to you I will listen to you

[@Ravenn914]

His grandmother didn't die because of covid. She died long ago, before the pandemic. He wrote another song dedicated to her, called "Un respiro", when he was a contestant in the popular talent show Amici back in 2018.

[@julyriver8851]

0:24 That sounded very good Rachel, nice pronunciation 👍 As usual, interesting analysis, grazie. ps: he wrote this song after his grandmother passing.

[@Doivid297]

I think that figure at the end was some kind of guardian/protective spirit, believe it or not - it's not terrorising him, but gently putting him down to rest. As everyone says, it was written for his late grandma, so that may be her ghost that's tucking him in as if she'd never left in the first place. I would describe both that particular scene and the video as a whole as dreamy. Most dreams (at least in personal experience) are very weird and impulsive with subject matters that stem from the subconscious. So yeah, some visuals may not make sense at face value, but there's lots of meaning behind them. Anyways, that's my two cents on that!

[@Gaga72-z9b]

Bellissima reaction che dimostra l'analisi profonda e competente della canzone e degli intentimenti dell'autore

[@esc_george]

Oh hi Rachel, nice to see you again. You might have seen the shortlisted host cities for Eurovision 2023, do you have a preference on what city should be the ultimate host?

[@ThePeaceAround]

Manchester for sure. Full of culture and music history in the UK 🥰

[@MsBarby70]

Irama's song is not about a lost love but about a loved one who is gone, the ending is just the essence of the spirit that is beside him.

[@pvpablovidal]

I liked the reaction ... thanks for the subtitles...😍

[@robywolf904]

Il video rappresenta perfettamente il suo stato d'animo di quel momento che avendo perso la nonna alla quale era molto legato è morta anche una parte di se.

[@enricomalossetti645]

canzone che con altri versi ed altro significato riprende, in parte, una poesia di CECCO ANGIOLIERI 1280-1310. Una canzone profonda ma anche di spessore culturale

Great reaction, this is probably one of my favourite songs of San Remo that i've listened to haha. And because you asked, maybe you'd enjoy checking out Loom by Olafur Arnalds and Bonobo. The rise of the song is quite unique imo and it has some beautiful soundscaping, it also got nominated for a grammy if im not mistaken :)

This song is amazing. Irama wrote it for his grandma who passed away. That figure in the end probably symbolises her spirit who protects him. That's my interpretation of the video. ❤️

I hope you reaction on Blanco's song 'Blu Celeste' too, there haven't been many people who have done it and it's a shame because there is a lot to analyze there.

"Amami di più" by "Piero Cicala" (Emilio Solfrizzi). Masterpiece, with translation. I can't listen to this song without crying. "e se un giorno tu cadrai io ti raccoglierò come fossi un ramo e ti innaffierò fino a quando non fiorirai."

I understand this is a reaction but talking so much about this song doesn't allow you to really hear it. I'm sorry for you.

[@williamdacic]

I really like this song but I expected something more. It kinda fell flat after the lackluster buildup for me. The instrumentation felt a bit thin at that part and then his voice came back after an unnatural pause and nothing special happened. Also too many effects on the vocals. I prefer his last year's entry. Have you heard Can Somebody Find Her? from Benjamin Ingrosso's album Playlist? It' laidback, fun, retro and seemingly formulaic with quite a few interesting moments sprinkled throughout.

I don't like this song. I suggest "La vita mia", masterpiece by Amedeo Minghi. When Irama sings "Ovunque sarai, ovunque sarò", he reminds me a lot of Amedeo Minghi.

[@plantita3183]

Hi Rachel, just letting you know that Irama is known to be a transphobe, you of course couldn’t know, but please stay away from his stuff in the future. Context: One if his songs features a line about beating a trans person, which he has shrugged off like it was nothing when asked about it

This year Irama tried once again to slay the competition, and indeed is a very good job.This song worked much better at the time of stage, because it's good but with a strange development, ending a bit in nothingness, but live it was more intense, and all the arrangement sounded way more authentic. Could I suggest you the next one (but not the last!) from Sanremo 2022? *Domenica by Achille Lauro*. But, please……… the Sanremo performance was mooore enjoyable than the studio one, because the Harlem Gospel Choir featuring. It's available here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnmck5d4btN1gbc PS: I know I'm pretty boring with this thing of live versions, but in this case I couldn't avoid it!
