REACTING TO MÅNESKIN’S NEW SONG ‘THE LONELIEST’ (FIRST LISTEN)

Am I the only one that wants Damiano to sing in Italian again?

[@fabio6947]

Step by step..he will..take in mind Italians always sing in Italian,this is a new for us and for them too..I guess they are in the mainstream and they want to stay there for long time,singing in Italian is clearly amazing for them but little bit more difficult to them reach the hit of the global charts.I think they will mix English and Italian songs,as always.

[@aekelly]

I'm an American who doesn't know Italian so you might want to take my opinion with a grain of salt. 😏 I've been very eager to hear a love song/ballad from them in English so my brain can take it all in at once. But I can't imagine anyone thinking a ballad in English is anywhere as beautiful as one on Italian. Sadly, the U.S. radio industry is awful and panders to those of us who only want to hear English, which is a shame. I appreciate everything they do in English so I don't have to go to Google translate 😏, but even I want to hear that particular spark of their Italian songs, especially the ballads. (Who knows, maybe the Italian ballads are more stirring to me *because* all I have to go on is the expression in the instruments and Damiano's voice, and my mind just hears that. But even through translations, Damianos lyrics are exquisite. 💕 I hope they can balance all they want to do, AND their Italian fans wishes, AND the wishes of their audience in the US and elsewhere! 💕

[@fabio6947]

@@aekelly I get u, u are right.. It's like "I live beside the sea and I'd love to live on the mountains..".. Cause u are used to listen to the same things from years.. The same for us.. Italian ballads are sweet, coraline is a masterpiece, but we are so proud finally to have a band so famous around the world, and they are famous expecially for the English songs.. Unfortunately.. I still hope they will balance it.. 🤟

[@maxros8102]

from a recent interview: ''It is an important text for us: it expresses a message of universal love. The song is a way to overcome loneliness. Something that everyone has experienced in one way or another. You feel the struggle against nostalgia and pain until the final cathartic cry of love. Making this song was a healing experience ". Ciao Rachel, greetings from Italy

[@adrianoamatucci989]

Bravi. Un applauso in più al chitarrista che ha suonato la parte solistica usando, in alcune parti, la tecnica tipica del mandolino. Un "assolo" molto italiano. Di nuovo complimenti ai ragazzi. Una cosa, personale vorrei esprimere... Chi commenta in modo negativo questi ragazzi è o dovrebbe essere in grado di dimostrare una certa competenza in fatto di musica.... Non scrivo da fan, visto che sono piuttosto avanti con gli anni, ma apprezzo chi vale. Un saluto a tutti.

[@danielalipari8396]

Chi dà addosso ai Måneskin sono hater ignoranti, invidiosi e politicizzati. Immagina che anche diversi DJ gli stanno facendo una guerra spietata e si nascondono dietro falsi account. Sei avanti con gli anni? Non importa, ma sei avanti con il pensiero critico.

[@giovannimoriggi5833]

@@danielalipari8396 Non solo chi dà addosso ai Maneskin… Comunque difendere una band sulla cresta dell'onda è facile quanto criticarli. Non si tratta di stabilire una regola per cui certe cose non si possono dire, si tratta (come sempre) di saper avere un punto di vista critico sulle critiche di altri. Se sei uno che, per esempio, si beve ogni stronzata che dice uno come Paragone, c'è poco da fare, ma anche pensare che i Måneskin siano inattaccabili non è giusto. Questo ultimo singolo per esempio sa di già sentito a manetta, e purtroppo sa proprio di americanata come dice lei. Per fortuna che c'è quell'assolo di chitarra! Ma sono cose che capitano, la strada è lunga.

This song is not the classic ballad we often hear, but an original pop symphonic melodrama listened only by an Italian band called Maneskin. THE LONELIEST is a masterpiece.

[@lorylory7429]

I agree with you the guitar solo is very nice especially in the last part it seems that the guitar joins the atmosphere of the song as if it was crying too. I think, even if the song is sad, at the end it gives the hope that true love is eternal and tells us that in the end all that remains of our life is not the money, the success, the things we bought, but only the love we gave, relationships we had......Maybe they wrote this song for Victoria who lost her mother right at the beginning of her musical career when they were at Xfactor

[@lucab.5688]

Live version from the concert in London London 06/10/22 is even better than the studio edit. Thomas plays the first verse of the song with an e-bow, and the guitar is more present, with a more crunch sound.

[@enricotesta3871]

This comment aged so well!!

[@caterpillarcaterpillar1265]

It is therefore a single detail, born in a difficult moment: the band away from home and its affections managed to convey its own mood through these words. Apparently it would seem a sad song but, in reality, conceals a profound meaning of love. I'll explain how the song was born and then the video briefly ... Damiano wrote this song when he was in Los Angeles for the new record and felt alone ... He thought "but if I had to die now Does my family know how much I loved them?" And so in one night he wrote the song as if it were a farewell letter ... The video tells this ... Damiano dies suddenly ( perhaps drowning ) without being able to say goodbye to anyone so yes he reincarnates and goes back to his funeral ( but he doesn't know it because he doesn't remember ) ... Then it starts to rain and everything comes back to him and then he reads the farewell letter ( the paper that comes out of his mouth are the unsaid words ) .. At that point everyone recognizes him and runs away in terror except the friends of the band.

[@pitikiwi01]

awww rachel!! i'm always so happy so tee you! ❤i adore the guitar solo !

[@fanciot]

6:02 I like to call that "tremolo" or "vibrato" of Thomas *"mandolin fx"* (effect) because the sound obtained is very close to traditional Italian popular music, in particular that of Southern Italy, obviously in this case made with an electric guitar and not with a mandolin 🙂🙂

[@gregorygant4242]

Great song , more for American style tastes really , radio play. But that guitar solo was sick , absolutely awesome , best part of the song , wow !

[@quistwing]

tbh i love this bc it feels more authentic to some of their best italian songs - emotional, something that rips at your insides without forgiveness. i hop they do more italian songs whenever they do a new full album, but i wont mind english songs as much if they do it with as much emotion as they did here. damiano's voice excells at emotional singing and i want to here more of that from him tbh

Hi Rachel this song is wonderful, almost majestic. Obviously is radio-friendly for american and global audience (on the other hand is produced with Max Martin), i think you can realize it bc is basically a 4 chords song and starts with the chorus (very different from coraline e torna a casa that have a lot of chords and start very slowly): By the way it hits hard with the solo of thomas and liyrics by damiano, a great ballad songwriter. Thanks you for coming back to maneskin reaction, i really missed. :)

[@ManuelaSemenzin]

❤ thank you! I totally agree on the guitar solo I don’t know how many times I’ve listened to it so far but every time is goosebumps and tears. The whole song is restrained as you said, until that point, like when you suffer but you try to be strong when people is around you and then you burst into tears when you’re alone and you feel desperate. The structure of the song serves the meaning, as in poetry, or literature in general, when it’s well done. I haven’t paid enough attention to the bass so far so thank you for pointing it out!!

[@dancecoach6052]

Thomas is using the Digitec Whammy for that guitar solo, if anyone is interested in that. I've heard more virtuoso solos (Slash in the song November Rain by Guns n' Roses) but this one fits well to the song, is very dramatic. Vocals kick ass as always and the rest of the band is very solid. Well done guys!

I would say that this song is "saved by the bell" with that solo with noise inspiration, from being a quite generic pop-rock ballad.

[@GayJayU26]

Thomas is a little genius.

[@vessibus]

Ciao, first of all excuse my english. I really appreciate your comments and reactions. My thought is that the Maneskin are born Mainstream comparable to Aerosmith or Inxs. Their path (I start from 2020) was Power Ballad (Twenty Years) Teatro d'Ira 1 (much more Rock) Summer song (Mammamia) then there had to be Teatro d'Ira 2 but the joust started with Beggin then with Gasoline and If I can Dream and so they had to upset the plans. They restarted with a summer song (Supermodel) and now a new Power Ballad (The Loneliest) and in January the new album. I believe and hope that as for Twenty Years (the most neutral song on the album) also for The Longinest (which still has the use of E-Bow and a plasma distortion pedal which are small innovations but which involve research of "New" sounds) will be like a business card to accompany us inside a new album. However, even if I think it will be a good album they will keep their transversality so it will not be a flat line but a wavy one.

[@lauracapobianco4067]

When you said that this song has “radiohead-esque” chords it popped immediately into my mind which song it reminds me of: Creep by radiohead, the chord progression in the chorus is very similar between both songs

I've heard the live version from Paris and, although he has to improve his overall performance, I can't deny having shivers when he sets on that fantastic distorsion in his voice. Wow! Ethan: perfect as usual, the guy is gold. Last thing: from what I've heard Thomas' guitar is a bit more present live. Great analysis. Hugs form Italy! 😊
