Peppino Gagliardi - Che stupido ero io

Great song by the Great Italian singer and in my opinion even he was the most Italian romantic singer Peppino Gagliardi.
I wrote a lot about him before,but here is a little again.
Peppino Gagliardi (born May 25, 1940) is an Italian singer.

Gagliardi was born in Naples. His first hit in Italy came in 1963 with "T'amo e t'amerò". In 1970, he had another big hit with the song, Settembre, and more hits followed in the early 1970s.

He achieved two-second placings at the Sanremo Music Festival: in 1972 with "Come le viole" and in 1972 with "Come un ragazzino". His music declined in popularity in the 1980s and 1990s. His last entry at the Sanremo Music Festival was "L'alba" in 1993.

One of his songs, "Che vuole questa musica stasera", is part of the original soundtrack of Scent of a Woman by Dino Risi, The Man from U.N.C.L.E. by Guy Ritchie and The Ruthless by Renato De Maria. The song was also used in an episode of Season 2 of the Belgian series Professor T.
And as i mentioned already before His particular style of performing gained him the nickname "The Italian Aznavour".


Lyrics of the song translated by Google.
Che stupido ero io-What a fool I was


I remember
you were the most beautiful among the beautiful ones
how transparent your skin was
an unripe fruit you still looked like you
god how stupid I was I
remember you
looked like a sleeping angel
a lost frightened sparrow
an ideal you appeared to me
god how stupid I was
instrumental
and now
that I find you rich a lady
you tell me that you are free tonight
but I say no
I give up on you but not my dreams
what a fool I am you know

and now
that I find you rich a lady
you tell me that you are free tonight
but I tell you no
I give up on you but not my dreams
what a fool I am you know
