La Ballerina Del Carillon
Ligabue · Other Songs - Ligabue
manda a nanna il professore
Donne con lui non ce n'è,
è fatto così, non vuol pagare
ma nanananana è un compleanno su cui passare
e nanananana brinda al suo pendolo ed al suo din-don
si alza la ballerina del carillon
L'ombra dipende dal neon
pensa la spogliarellista
e, intanto, stima il cammeo
che una tipa tiene in vista
ma, nanananana il seno casca e un cliente fischia
e, nanananana balla più in fretta e lancia cotillons
gira la ballerina del carillon
Sul piano del piano bar
ci son troppe poche mance
e, allora, va avanti a suonare
un pezzo buono per la pancia
ha, nanananana le dita gialle fra il bianco e il nero
e, nanananana forse un pò si diverte sul giro in sol
balla la ballerina del carillon
La Ballerina Del Carillon
This track by Ligabue stands as a defining example of the Italian new wave movement that emerged in the late 1980s. The song blends electronic textures with a melodic, almost operatic vocal delivery, creating a sound that was both futuristic and deeply emotional. Released during a period when Ligabue was establishing his signature style, the recording captures the tension between urban isolation and romantic longing that would become central to his discography. The composition features a distinctive carillon motif that drives the rhythm, grounding the ethereal atmosphere in a specific, haunting musical identity. It remains a staple of the genre, illustrating how Ligabue successfully integrated pop sensibilities with a darker, more atmospheric aesthetic that influenced subsequent Italian indie and electronic acts.
