Elisa - Luce

October 23, 2007 · Filed Under Italian music · 2 Comments 

This is a powerful track I like by an Italian singer called ‘Elisa’. She is also trying to break into the international scene and has released at least one album in English. She’s better when she sings in Italian though, in my humble opinion. The way she sings in Italian seems to transmit emotions more effectively. Have a listen to this emotionally charged track, which is ‘Light’ in English:

For some reason my link to the Elio and Le Storie Tese YouTube video stopped working. Odd, I have not yet received a ‘cease and desist’ notice from Elio’s legal team. Anyway, the link has been updated and Mio Cuggiono is back on line. An interesting track. Listen while the lawyers let you! And me!

Ah, home sweet home

Blog from Italy’s new home has been discovered. Only the intrepid explorers are not sausage hunters or those interested in reading about things Italian. Nope, they are my old friends the spammers. The spammer who labels comments with odd names of Greek origin is back to challenge the spam system, and a certain Daniel has joined the spam team, and he seems to have an interesting bot that can collect parts of my posts, and, almost, fool me into thinking the comments are legitimate. Then there is the spammer who was looking for places in New York that sell car tyres, or should that be ‘tires’. Heaven knows what that particular individual was trying to achieve sending spam to a site in and about Italy. And yet another spammer seems to be coming from a site about the American elections.

I suppose spam bots are not that intelligent, with the possible exception of Daniel’s who seem to be able to ‘read’. Well, that’s spammers for you - not particularly worthwhile people who make money out of annoying others. Oh well, such is life.
