My personal arrangement of Nicola Piovani's theme from Roberto Benigni's movie La Vita è Bella.
I always loved this song (and of course, the movie too) and when I tried to play it it seemed to me that it fits the ukulele perfectly.
The video has been shooted in my parents garden in Lignano Sabbiadoro, with the great help of my father and the support of my mum, so... grazie mille mamma e papà!
I played my ohana tenor and sopranino, my little accordion discovered thanks to the Uke Box,
and introducing my new, amazing, the greenest, Minibass!
the minibass is a small doublebass created and build by Claus Freudenstein from germany, to allow children from 5 years old to study the upright bass!
check out his wonderful work here:

by the way, don't forget to watch the most awsome project of the world: • Ukuleles for Peace 201...
here it is a live version of the song with the stunning voice of Noa and the composer at the piano:
• Noa & Nicola Piovani l...
my name is Lorenzo Vignando and my one man group is called Ukulollo
PS: I have no twins, the players in the video are me, myself and I.
Smile, without a reason why
Love, as if you were a child,
Smile, no matter what they tell you
Don't listen to a word they say
Cause life is beautiful that way.
Tears, a tidal wave of tears
Light, that slowly disappears
Wait, before you close the curtain
There is still another game to play
And life is beautiful that way
Here with his eyes forevermore
I will always be as close as you
remember from before
Now that you're out there on your own
Remember what is real and
what we dream is love alone
Keep the laughter in you eyes
Soon your long awaited prize
We'll forget about our sorrows
And think about a brighter day
Cause life is beautiful that way.
We'll forget about our sorrows
And think about a brighter day,
Cause life is beautiful that way
There's still another game to play
And life is beautiful that way.

[@MaristelaGiorgia]

You're fantastic! I need to learn this song, can you tell me what chords do you use, Please ?

[@paumarco7306]

13 years later, this cover came back to my mind and I felt the need to search it again on youtube, and here I am, leaving a comment 🥰

[@azurams]

congratulations !! wonderful arrangement sound and video ! I don't realize what chords / position you play while singing : "Don't listen to a word they say Cause life is beautiful that way." I gess it's kind of Bm - B7 - E7 - B7 - C# - F#m with different finger position. some sound like diminished chords. How is your tenor ukulele tuned ? I can't figure out how to play the last two notes (B and A) of the short transition melody between verse and chorus on the same octave.

[@ukudaily]

I love your stuff. Alsways entertaining and performed with excellence! I am going to make it a featured Video of the Day on my ukuDaily site. Watch your email for a few questions for the article.

[@martineukelovesimpro]

Wonderfully beautiful .. would like to have the chords 🙂🤗👍💗

[@ukudaily]

Lorenzo, this video was featured today on the ukuDaily site. Again, fantastic job. I think I watched it five times just today.

[@ukulele0000]

Love this song.. .. Your wildly imaginative musical vision is not only really enjoyable, but also inspiring.

Like sorbet on the musical palate!! BTW, your English is spot on!!! thank you, AJ
