COsa pushes more than 10 thousand people, many of them over 30 years of age, to participate in a Concert of an almost sixty -year -old Jovanotti but still very unleashed On stage? I asked myself by taking part in this pay rite that are the concerts, where the sense of something indefinite that unites those present is palpable.
Something that changes, depending on the artist: it can be the idea of protest, transgression, aesthetics, and a lot. In the case of Lorenzo Cherubini the clear imprint is that of eternal childhood. So much so that the artist opens the concert with the abbreviation of Conana cartoon, while the ending is entrusted to the wonderful puppets of Muppet’s Show.
Jovanotti plays a lot with this naive sectionhe says that, after all, the five most used words in his songs, according to chatgpt, are love, life, world, freedom and sun. Minimizes but knows well that The choice of terms in his texts is very studied and constitutes a good part of his luck.

The fact remains that, in the face of committed songs, which have even become sound campaigns soundtracks, The public is still unleashing the hymn to childhood Hello, momto which Jovanotti reserves the grand finale with lights on, to enjoy the drilling effect of his fans.
A superhuman wave of energy that crosses the stands and makes it difficult to stand stilland with respect to which you feel a little cring (embarrassed), for once, it is granted. But there is another aspect that consecrates Jovanotti to interpreter of a generation kissed by luck, that of the boys of the 80s, eternal children, carefree until they are marked by the stigma of the hallway: the value conferred on love. That in Jovanotti finds his maximum expression in the link with his partner, reverberated as a divinity also during the concert.
And it comes to mind that too Another ’80s boy, friend of Jovanotti, Fiorello, reproduces the same dedication model to a single womanfor all life. It will now be out of fashion, but this way of loving, generous and passionate, constitutes a form of commitment. As far as I know, one of the most difficult to practice.
