Psychosis or justified fear It is difficult to answer this question in the heart of a strangely silent Milan, where public transport is semi-deserted and one looks at each other with suspicion at the first cough. Cinemas, museums and theaters have lowered their shutters, together with schools from all over Lombardy. Yet, it is at this very moment that we invoke art, music and culture more than anything else . Relying on the thought of the great authors, but also dancing and singing, these are the things that can help us fight – at least a little – the fear that lurks within each of us. So, while the news gallops, we have chosen to stop for a moment and allow ourselves a moment of liberation from anguish, a moment to sing about our fear and unite all together in a decisive “no” to Coronavirus psychosis. We rely on the words of one of the Italian songwriters who better than others tells the neuroses and anxieties of contemporary man. We are talking about Brunori Sas and his song and the famous ” Song against fear “. Living in quarantine in Casalpusterlengo: Veronica’s story
We asked Veronica of Casalpusterlengo to tell us how to live in quarantine: “What worries me most is the idea of ​​being trapped here, of not being able to leave the country …”. Song Against Fear
I write unintelligent songs
that you understand immediately as soon as you hear them
good songs to go to the beach on Sundays,
good songs to eat
They are little irreverent
songs in short songs like me
that I have lost all my teeth
songs for those who do not want to bark or growl
songs just to sing
Songs that speak of love,
because in the end come on, what else do you want to talk about
What you are you look around there is nothing to sing
only a great emptiness that hurts you to look at it
So I will be superficial,
but in the midst of this pain
and in all this rancor
I sing only for me
My unintelligent songs
that you wake up in the morning and brush your teeth
songs for those who do not want to think or listen
to songs to forget.
They are not very consistent songs, in short,
songs like me that I don’t think anymore
I just want sensations, only feelings
and a cup of coffee.
Songs that talk about love
because in the end you give what else you want to talk
That if you look around there is not much to sing,
only a sadness that is difficult to touch
So I will be superficial,
but in the midst of this pain
and in all this noise
I sing a world that does not exist
But no, you want exciting songs
that grab you in the throat without much compliments
songs like slaps in the face to force you to think
good songs to be hurt
Those songs to sing out loud
as if five thousand voices become one
song that I still love you, even if it’s sad even if it
‘s hard songs against fear
Songs that save your life life
that make you say: “No, fuck it’s not over yet!”
that give you the strength to start over
that keep you on your feet when you feel you are collapsing
But it doesn’t seem like a miracle
that in the midst of this pain
and in all this noise
sometimes a song is enough
even a stupid song
just a stupid song
to remind you who you are
to remind you who you are
But doesn’t it seem like a miracle
that in the midst of this pain and all this noise
sometimes a song is enough
even a stupid song
just a stupid song
to remind you who you are
