A song for the summer: “Sunday of August” by Bobby Solo

ByJohn

Sunday of August (1969) – Bobby Only cradles a immoderate passion for Elvis, in particular the most languid, sighing, softened of the years of maturity. To support the career of an inexhaustible hit grounding of the sixties, he must bend to the reasons of the show-business with an optional tune, but ‘climatically’ impeccable, that is, very skilled to transfer the moods of a day-day of the Italian summer.

“Sunday of August
How hot it does
The beach is a ride, it will not serve
drink a drink
If at the bottom of the soul
I dream of the ocean. Splash.
… above the rock there is
a girl who
He laughs and dives down. Splash. “

The most colorful and amused profile of Bobby Solo, who a few years earlier, as a debutant, had brought to Sanremo “a tear on the face”: better this danceable with panache, from the images that refer to the summer heat, to the need for refreshment, perhaps run with a song to be tranga as if it were a granita. Splash.
