Questo Amore

Ricchi e Poveri's song 'Questo Amore' delves into the passionate and overwhelming nature of love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a love so intense that it consumes the individuals involved. The repeated phrase 'Questo amore' (This love) emphasizes the central theme, highlighting the depth and fervor of the emotions experienced by the lovers. The song captures moments of intimacy and connection, such as the lines 'tu mi piaci da morire' (I like you to death) and 'la tua bocca sulla mia' (your mouth on mine), which convey a sense of deep affection and physical closeness.

The song also explores the idea of escaping from the mundane aspects of life to fully immerse in the experience of love. Phrases like 'io domani non lavoro' (I don't work tomorrow) and 'smettiamo di ballare' (let's stop dancing) suggest a desire to break free from routine and responsibilities to focus solely on the relationship. The imagery of 'la giostra che va e la testa mi gira' (the carousel goes and my head spins) evokes a sense of dizziness and euphoria, akin to the feeling of being in love.

Furthermore, 'Questo Amore' touches on the playful and spontaneous aspects of love, comparing the lovers to children with 'quanti giochi improvisati' (how many improvised games). This comparison underscores the innocence and purity of their connection, as well as the joy and excitement that come with being together. The song ultimately portrays love as a powerful and transformative force, capable of making the lovers feel alive and deeply connected.
