Anna Ko Kolkowska Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Translation from Italian: My new Italian single comes out at midnight! Great inspirations are born from the love for beautiful music! I recorded a cover of the fantastic song Bella d’Estate that Mango wrote with Lucio Dalla in the 1980s. With me in this new version there is @michelebravi: we had fun in a duet that will surprise you! Production by @thekatoo 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anna Ko Kolkowska Posted August 27, 2020 Author Share Posted August 27, 2020 It's funny like this song sounds for me a litte bit like Sanremo, Even the lyrics. È solo un addioCredimi io non ci penso maiVedo che hai piantoTu lo sapevi ma da quando? Bella d'estate vaiVia da meNotte d'incantoÈ bello vedere le luci laggiùIo sono stancoNon voglio parlare, parla tuBella d'estate vaiVia da meForse perché ti credevo felice cosìProprio così fra le mie bracciaForse perché ci bastava arrivare fin quiCome onde di notte sulla spiaggia Oh, la la la la la laOh, la la la la la la Piccoli fuochiNoi siamo zingari di periferiaI nostri son giochiChe durano pocoE la notte se li porta via Bella d'estate vaiVia da meForse perché ti credevo felice cosìProprio così fra le mie bracciaForse perché ci bastava arrivare fin quiCome onde di notte sulla spiaggia Oh, la la la la la laOh, la la la la la la Chiudi gli occhi e ti senti per sempre cosìAncora qui fra le mie bracciaPer tutti e due basterebbe tornare fin quiCome onde di notte sulla spiaggia English translation It's just goodbye Believe me I never think about it I see you cried You knew it but since when? Beautiful in summer go Get away from me Enchanting night It's nice to see the lights over there I'm tired I don't want to talk, you talk Beautiful in summer go Get away from me Maybe because I thought you were so happy Just like that in my arms Perhaps because it was enough for us to get here Like waves at night on the beach Oh, la la la la la la Oh, la la la la la la Small fires We are suburban gypsies Ours are games Which do not last long And the night takes them away Beautiful in summer go Get away from me Maybe because I thought you were so happy Just like that in my arms Perhaps because it was enough for us to get here Like waves at night on the beach Oh, la la la la la la Oh, la la la la la la Close your eyes and forever feel like this Still here in my arms For both of us it would be enough to go back here Like waves at night on the beach 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anna Ko Kolkowska Posted August 27, 2020 Author Share Posted August 27, 2020 more information on FB. MIKA e MICHELE BRAVI: BELLA D'ESTATE Annunciata a sorpresa la loro collaborazione musicale: Disponibile dal 28 agosto su tutte le piattaforme di streaming e download. Il singolo è stato prodotto da Francesco "Katoo" Catitti. La star internazionale Mika ha deciso di registrare una cover di “Bella d'Estate” quando stava preparando una playlist di musica italiana all’inizio di questa stagione estiva: "Quasi per caso ho riscoperto Bella d'Estate e spontaneamente, senza pianificazione, mi è venuta l'idea di cantarla. E’ una cover nata per amore della canzone stessa, per amore di Mango, ma anche di Lucio Dalla, che ha scritto il testo e di cui sono un grande ammiratore. Ho incontrato subito l'entusiasmo di Katoo per questo progetto e ci siamo divertiti a creare una rilettura rispettosa, ma in chiave contemporanea. Mentre eravamo in studio, Katoo mi ha proposto di trasformarla in un duetto e abbiamo pensato di coinvolgere Michele Bravi, con cui lui lavora da tempo, e con entusiasmo è arrivata la sua adesione. Sono stato molto felice di ritrovarlo!” Michele Bravi si è detto “affascinato dall’attenzione che ha avuto Mika nel voler riscoprire e ripresentare al pubblico un gioiello raro della nostra musica. È un onore per me poter condividere insieme alla sua professionalità lo spazio di questa canzone, che insieme celebra l’incontro tra diverse creatività e il patrimonio musicale italiano” Mika e Michele Bravi si sono conosciuti a X Factor nel 2013: Mika debuttava come giudice, mentre Michele era concorrente e poi vincitore di quella edizione. Successivamente si sono ritrovati nel 2016 quando Mika ha invitato Michele al suo one man show Stasera CasaMika su Raidue. Quest'anno Mika sarà di nuovo giudice a X Factor, in onda su Sky dal 17 settembre, mentre il 19 settembre terrà I Beirut , uno show speciale in streaming su YouTube per raccogliere fondi a sostegno della sua città natale, ferita dalle recenti esplosioni. Michele Bravi sta per pubblicare il suo nuovo concept album “La geografia del buio” che contiene anche il fortunato brano uscito in anteprima a Maggio “La vita breve dei coriandoli”. Mika e Michele Bravi saranno sul paco dei Seat Music Awards in onda su Raiuno il 5 settembre dall'Arena di Verona per cantare insieme Bella d'Estate.

I immediately met the enthusiasm of Katoo for this project and we had fun creating a respectful but contemporary reinterpretation. While we were in the studio, Katoo asked me to turn it into a duet and we thought of involving Michele Bravi, with whom he has been working for some time, and with enthusiasm he has arrived for his participation. I was very happy to meet him again! " Michele Bravi said he was "fascinated by the attention that Mika had in wanting to rediscover and present to the public a rare jewel of our music.

mellody Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 A new candidate for the list of my least fave Mika songs. Not too fond of the original song either, the 80s vibe of that was ok, but they totally destroyed that with this electronic sound. Ah well, I can't like them all, right? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyaboutmika Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Well I had a hectic day and evening...but just finding out about the two new songs and listened to them and kind of disappointed by both....I was expecting Mika songs, those are duets, one is a cover. Right now I tend to like Bella d'estate better but I would prefer it with only Mika's voice and less electronic. But although I hope bot new songs will grow on me I am not convinced they will... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mousetrap Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) I have mixed feelings about the song. I like the sound, I like Mika's voice in it. But I don't feel comfortable when Mika sings in Italian. I don't know why, perhaps it is because of his accent it feels like singing in Italian doesn't suit Mika. I don't have problems with Mika singing in French, I don't speak both Italian and French. It's my personal thing I believe. And I so don't like Michele's voice in this song. The good thing is these's not much of Michele there. So I'd prefer this song to be without Michele and in English, like Center of Gravity. But we can't have everything we want, can we?
