Have no idea what he's singing about but it sounds really good. Is this an artist you are familiar with? Some background info would be nice.

He's been a singer /songwriter very active musically first with a Band around 1963 and then started a solo career in the 70's and 80's... Great songs and lyrics ( I know.. I should get down to translating some...smile)..

Trying to find a music bio in english for you....

I'm happy to hear you like him.

Thanks, the song I listened to was from 1979, the first link. I also just replayed it for my husband and daughter, they both liked it as well. My daughter said I should be able to Google the lyrics. I'll try that.

There's this Wikipedia page about him which tells / explains a lot but it's in italian and I don't know if there's a way to get it translated in english ( automatically, I mean)

I kept trying to find a Bio and musical history in english but so far no luck....

Well if you find it post it, otherwise, I'll be expecting a brief recap of what he's singing about from you!

cartolina as per google

That is a pity that I remember most

postcard you too ...

He died a little 'home and a friend goes away

postcard ...

As rain does not believe it because

Rain was also really would wet yourself

Another passes a nativity procession of heroes

there are his eyes

Pretty as a miss but naive love

postcard ...

How much sun do not believe it because

Sun scald was really me too

Postcard no answer ever

not repeat not ricalcherò

you know another signature

Warm ourselves a bit 'in a two-coat

postcard or not ...

Remember me if you want but we can already see

a postcard ...

Rain and sun as it should be

until the time your story and words and my

postcard ...

Mario Lavezzi and Loredana Berte' - In Alto Mare ( In high Seas) live

Lyrics "Professore" (Professor)

Guardala professore quanto è bionda

questa stellata che è buia fonda

guardala bene mentre se ne corre via

proprio così come guardi quell'amica mia

lo so che un tempo hai fatto strage di signore

mica per niente ti chiamo professore

Parlami professore del silenzio,

delle campagne azzurre, dell'assenzio

parlami di quei mesi chiusi su in montagna

col basco nero come fosse un'altra volta Spagna

accendi il fuoco

in queste cose sei il migliore

anche per questo ti chiamo

professore

Spiegami professore di una donna

che ti conosce come questa fiamma

dicono in giro che non l'hai dìimenticata

le se ne andò, ma comunque non si è mai sposata

e dal quel giorno ti sei cucito il cuore

anche per questo ti chiamo professore

Ma di me non parlare

il vuoto che senti c'è,

non è da raccontare

C'hanno rubato tutto

e tu che cosa hai fatto

nella tua casa continuavi a dare il latte al gatto

anch'io avrò il diritto di essere peggiore,

voglia scusarmi professore!

Will translate it for you WB...Just give me a day or two....Smile.....

heres how google translates 'in high seas'....

Look at what has blonde professor

This is dark starry based

good look at her as he runs away

just as my watch that friend

I know that once you've made ​​carnage of ladies

mica for nothing I'll call you Professor

Talk to a professor of silence,

campaigns blue absinthe

tell me about those months locked up in the mountains

As with the black beret was once Spain

light the fire

these things are the best

also why do you call

professor

Tell a woman professor

you know how this flame

tell everyone that you have not dìimenticata

the left, but has never married

and from that day you sewed the heart

also why do you call a professor

But I do not speak

the emptiness you feel there is,

is not to tell

Who have stolen everything

and you what have you done

you kept in your house to give milk to the cat

I will have the right to be worse,

Professor wants to apologize!

It's not too far off , all things considered. ( an online not human translator, , etc.)...Again thanks for that. I do appreciate it.
