Veteran of the Festival, Cristicchi is a poet and a race singer -songwriter who arrives on the Ariston stage in disruptive ways.
“Sanremo I live it with great tranquility, with great serenity, but also with ready to amaze me too, that something wonderful may happen, beyond the speech of the race or the placement, let’s say, in the final. The thing that comforts me is that Carlo Conti gives me the opportunity to communicate with millions of people a theme that is a clockwork bomb, in the sense that I hope it can be able to discover a closed pot and the emotion of this humanity of today that It is very compressed. Despite this ocean of words and information in which we are immersed, perhaps this song manages to move deep strings, at least this I hope, to touch the soul of people “.

“When you are little, it arises from the need to tell a private pain, the one linked to the figure of my mother, who was the inspiration of this text, but at the same time wants to tell a condition that are lived almost all those who have the lucky to have parents who getting older return to being fragile and children. In this text I searched delicately, with that sense of great tenderness that all this entails, but also with that pinch of anger, impotence, for a condition that we find ourselves facing, and above all we must accept as the natural cycle of our existence “.
On the evening of the covers Simone Cristicchi will duet with Amara on the notes of “La Cura”, one of Franco Battiato’s most loved songs.
