Embracing Freedom and Joy: Tito Schipa's 'Vivere'

Tito Schipa's song 'Vivere' is a celebration of newfound freedom and joy after the end of a romantic relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a man who has been liberated from the constraints of love and is now embracing life with a renewed sense of happiness and independence. The opening lines set the tone for the song, describing a magnificent day filled with happiness as the protagonist's partner has left, granting him the freedom he longed for. This departure is not met with sorrow but with a sense of relief and excitement for the future.

The chorus of 'Vivere' emphasizes the protagonist's desire to live without melancholy, jealousy, or regrets. He vows to enjoy life to the fullest, picking the most beautiful flowers and silencing his heart's desires. This metaphor of picking flowers symbolizes seizing the best opportunities life has to offer, while silencing the heart suggests a conscious decision to avoid the emotional turmoil that love can bring. The protagonist's laughter and joy are highlighted as he chooses to laugh at the world's follies and live with a youthful spirit.

In the latter part of the song, Schipa reflects on the theatrical nature of love, comparing it to a comedy where one plays the lead role, only to realize that it often ends in farce. Despite moments of nostalgia, the protagonist harbors no resentment and is grateful to those who have taken his former lover away. This gratitude underscores his commitment to living a life free from bitterness and full of joy. 'Vivere' is a testament to the beauty of life and the importance of embracing every moment with a positive outlook, regardless of past heartaches.
