10 songs that kept us company in this pandemic year

It started with no suspicion of what it was going to be. With Antonio Diodato who – from the Sanremo stage – reminded us how important it is make noise (even if it is not known if that noise is worthwhile). Shortly thereafter, we now know, everything would change. And – for the lucky ones – the music it has become no longer that thing to shout out loud during a concert, who cares if the words are wrong, but the companion of (long) days locked in the house.

Background of meetings on Zoom, or «shelter».

We sang from the balcony, or we listened to it on headphones during a solo run or a walk with the dog. This year, in many more interviews than usual, they told me “The music saved me”, and I believed it (much more than usual).

And to say goodbye to this year, we have collected 10 songs (among many) that have kept us company, and from which we have perhaps also learned. All songs that came to life in this pandemic year.

We looked at the stars with Achille, that «si ask why everything on this Earth first begins and then ends. ” We wished go to the sea, with «Inside the pockets with a little waves». And then it was the time of another summer, when we no longer believed it, «Because the winter was dark, too hard, hell. And so still is spring ». And yet they have arrived the Nuclear Tactical Penguins to remind us that even sobs are a little laugh. And that what has been remains: “to the days at the beach, to all mine it seems, to my lost wars, to your fake peace ».

Nostalgia can also be for «Christmas lights, the manual Panda, burn in one night like a cathedral“. The last word comes from the “king” of 2020, the most listened to ever: “I’ve been the hardest to love, It’s hard to let me go, yeah».
