And speaking of Italian songs I'd one day like to cover in English, this warm weather lately has reminded me of Rocky Roberts' wonderful feel-good hit, "Sono Tremendo". Hailing from Miami, he found musical success in Italy in the 60's, after stints in the U.S. Navy and as a boxer. Being a huge Candela Peña fan, I discovered this song as it was karaoked in her film, 'Novios' *. I find it impossible to listen to this song and not be happy:
* coincidentally, if anyone can tell me the Serge Gainsbourg pastiche that is played over the closing credits in her film 'Los Años Desnudos' , I would greatly appreciate it. A lovely nod to "Je T'Aime...Moi Non Plus", it seems to sadly be uncredited in the film.
smooth foot movements!
