Gli Ostacoli Del Cuore

Giorgia's song 'Gli Ostacoli Del Cuore' delves into the intricate and often paradoxical nature of human emotions and relationships. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the 'obstacles of the heart,' which are both challenging and magical. The song opens with the idea of a 'principle of magic' that exists among these obstacles, suggesting that even in the face of emotional challenges, there is something enchanting and transformative. This magic is likened to the anticipation of unwrapping a Christmas present, symbolizing the unexpected joys and discoveries that come with navigating one's emotions.

The song also explores the irony and vulnerability involved in sharing one's deepest thoughts and feelings. Giorgia sings about the irony of keeping secret thoughts only to find them revealed, highlighting the complexity of communication and understanding in relationships. This theme is further emphasized by the repeated lines about the many things that the other person doesn't know or can't know about her, suggesting a sense of mystery and the ongoing journey of getting to know each other.

Amidst these emotional obstacles, there is also a 'principle of joy' that Giorgia seeks to earn, even as she contemplates the sea and lets go of trivial thoughts. This joy is a reward for facing and overcoming the heart's challenges. The song concludes with a 'principle of energy' that propels her forward, despite the noise and difficulty of navigating these emotional landscapes. The repeated refrain about the things unknown and the things to be discarded in their shared journey underscores the ongoing process of growth, understanding, and mutual discovery in relationships.
