This is our second look at Italian love songs, after Alan Sorrenti’s “Tu sei l’unica donna per me”.
One of the greatest international successes for an Italian song was born in an unusual way.
“Vivo per lei” is a love song from Italy that was written and interpreted by the group O.
R.
O (Onde Radio Ovest).
It was dedicated to a woman, but afterwards the tenor Andrea Bocelli and Giorgia reinterpreted it, with the “she” of the song becoming music.
This version has since been sung in different languages, as seen in the videos below.
“Vivo per lei” or “I live for her”OROVivo per lei adesso cheSento l’amore dentro meForte gridare al mondo….
Io vivo…I live for her now thatI feel inside meStrong, to shout at the world…I live…Come un fiume verso il mareAcqua dolce contro il saleSiamo corpi in un abbraccioDue fette di pane e d’amoreLike a river towards the seaFresh water against saltWe are bodies in one embraceTwo slices of bread and loveVivi di lei adesso cheVive l’amore dentro teLibera il cuore e gridaIo vivo… io vivo per lei… sì!Io vivo per lei… You live her now thatLove lives inside youThe heart is free and shoutsI live…I live for her… yes!I live for herBelow, Andrea Bocelli sings “Vivo per lei” with Giorgia in Italian, Bocelli and Hayley Westenra then in English, Bocelli and Marta Sanchez in Spanish, Bocelli and Judy Weiss in German and finally Bocelli again and Sandy in portuguese.
