LIBIAM NE’ LIETI CALICI

This video of LIBIAM NE’ LIETI CALICI is so funny.
While Gianluca, Ignazio, and Piero are singing the song, Piero notices a pin sticking out of Ignazio’s jacket at the shoulder, and he thinks about pushing it in. Naturally, the pin pricks Ignazio’s shoulder, and he goes backstage to see what happened (all while the song continues). Then Ignazio comes back on stage with the pin in his hand and shows it to Piero, and Gianluca also comes over to see the pin, all this while the song continues, the guys keep singing, and the audience laughs loudly!! It’s Ignazio’s turn to sing, and instead of saying:
“Life is in the jubilation…..”
he says:
“The pin is in the jubilation….” 😂🤣😂
Our guys are so funny!! 😂🤣🤣

In the video:
GIANLUCA = What I like about Piero: his power, his confident stage presence, his determination.
PIERO = I’ll tell you what I like about him (Ignazio): his smile. When he smiles, it’s beautiful.
IGNAZIO = I really like the naturalness of his (Gianluca) movements.
GIANLUCA = See you on stage!

November 11th  MANNHEIM

The concert was in Sap Arena.

OPERA

IL MONDO

I found almost the entire concert held in Mannheim, unfortunately it was filmed from the side but it provides almost the entire context of the evening.

I’ll translate for you the beautiful speech Ignazio gave at the beginning of the video, after “Who Wants To Live Forever,” to introduce his solo (Memory) 🥰
In the German language, Ignazio asks Piero to leave the stage. Gianluca asks if he’ll sing alone, and Ignazio says they both have to leave, then decides to address the audience in Italian. (someone also asks for Sicilian language)
IGNAZIO = I think that in these almost 17 years together, which however feel like 20, they have been wonderful years, and I think that behind these 17 years now, there is a great message that we bring especially to the younger ones, because today we are in a world where individualism is increasingly common, and being in a group and staying together like we are after 17 years is really difficult.
We have always based our relationship on three fundamental factors: RESPECT, LOVE and TRUST. ❤️(applause)
It’s because I respect them (Piero and Gianluca) that I sent them away 😂 (it’s ironic – laughter), and it’s because of the love for them that I said they should go away,🤣 (laughter) and the trust is that they will then come back  😍(laughter).
Over these 17 years, we’ve also tried to showcase our three totally different personalities. People say I’m the craziest, I don’t know how to say “crazy” in German (someone in the audience tells him and he tries to pronounce it – applause).
People say I’m the craziest, but despite being the craziest, I’m the first to get married (applause), maybe that’s also why I’m crazy, anyway, even though I’m the craziest, I was the first to have a child, I’m a dad (applause), of course you’re all happy, but I’m the one who doesn’t sleep at night and changes diapers. 😍 💙
We (Il Volo) also have three different voices, and we try to demonstrate these three different voices through solos, through music, singing solos.
Tonight I’ll sing a song that’s very special to us because it reminds us of 2012 when we toured the United States with the great Barbra Streisand. It was a wonderful memory, especially because Barbra Streisand has sung this next song countless times, and her version is one of the most beautiful versions in the world and will remain in the history of musicals. 🥰
Ladies and gentlemen: Memory!

And this leg of the tour has also concluded.
Mannheim was the last of six concerts held in Germany, and I’d say it was a great success.
But there’s not much time to relive the successes; the next stop is just around the corner.
See you soon in the Czech Republic!!
