Alessandra Amoroso and Emma Marrone do not miss one and, when they get together, they are able to give life to something magical. Piece of heart, their new song is the perfect example. Two friends who talk, discuss what love is for them and thus begins a dialogue of comparison and comfort. Written by Davide Petrella, this dialogue between women excites us and we, we cannot stop hearing it. A piece that makes us travel through different atmospheres
The piece perfectly fits the musical characteristics of Dario Faini, aka Dardust, able to range in different atmospheres. 3 and a half minutes made of different levels, rhythms, instruments, vocal registers, which only Emma Marrone and Alessandra Amoroso, together, could interpret in this way.
The song starts in a soft way, with an exciting piano that accompanies Emma’s voice, warm, vibrant. She then arrives in a more dreamlike world, with redundant vintage sounds. Finally, to arrive at a real explosion of the refrain, where both can give vent to their singing talent, leaning on a rhythm and bass able to reach the “stomach” of the listener. What it means It means
that this song is a real journey, where emotions follow the crescendo of rhythm and volume. One shot, straight into the belly of emotions. The need to understand love
And how long does it take to hug each other at night
Thus begins the refrain of the new song by Emma and Amoroso. Because, often, in love, the questions are much more numerous than the answers. And this song is about two women who find themselves facing each other, with aches, pains, doubts, and begin to question themselves about the path and nature of love. Their stories are told, made up of pain and illusions. The condition in which they both find themselves, and a condition of “still”, immobility, helplessness:
“I feel like a dummy in a little glass
. This life tastes like honey, aspirin perhaps.
And I tried to learn love, but and always like this
I can’t understand what it is ”
Helping each other in the face of the difficulties of love
Female friendship and solidarity are also and above all useful when the rest of the world seems to be a huge enigma. It seems to engulf us in a vortex that we cannot quite understand and this scares us. Having an outstretched hand, a helping hand, makes us feel less alone. Thus, with this outstretched hand, Alessandra Amoroso and Emma Marrone find themselves reacting to the confusion.
“And you and you seem more confused than me
And you and you said and always like this
And you and you still a thousand questions”
Despite this, however, together we can learn, together we can grow.
“Now that we have learned love
Learned love
Now that we have learned love I can’t stop” Piece of heart, text
Between a call and a headache
I let you slip away
We always run away in a hurry, ah
What an ugly frenzy
Let me get a little light into the house
Today I don’t even defend myself
Always the same mistakes where there was the sea now and only mud
And like a waltz on Sunday in the suburbs
Between the bells the sirens of the police
There is a little girl who hugs her mother who looks like mine
I feel like a mannequin in a little window
This life tastes like honey, aspirin perhaps
And I tried to learn love, but it’s always like this
I can’t understand what it is
And how long does it take to hug each other at night
On the street even if it rains, never asking
Without ever understanding, without understanding
I gave you a piece of my heart
I take all the blame
I tried to learn love
To learn love
I tried to learn love
But it’s stronger than me
The incense that envelops the room
It feels like a fog A passing bus wakes
me up I
think back to a few nights ago
When you yelled at me: “Little girl, today I’m just not understanding you”
You’re always good at hurting, how many useless words in the wind
I still hear them
And how long does it take to hug night
On the street even if it rains, never asking
Without ever understanding, without understanding
I gave you a piece of my heart
I take all the blame
I tried to learn love
Learn love
I tried to learn love
But it’s stronger than me
And you and you seem more confused than me
And you and you said it’s always like this
And you and you still a thousand questions
But they don’t hurt anymore
And how long does it take to hug each other at night
On the street even if it rains, never asking
Without ever understanding, without understanding
I gave you a piece of my heart
I take all the blame
Now that we have learned love
Learned love
Now that we have learned love, I can’t stop
