“December, half” by singer-songwriter Giovanni Luca Valea – The official video clip is signed by Marco Gambineri

I was lucky enough to work with Virginia Settesoldi e Marco Gambineri. Virginia’s splendid guitar chords, which came providentially to my rescue, made the lyrics of “December, half” the song I wanted. Marco, with his video, was able to capture everything that I hadn’t even said. I am very grateful to both of you. Ultimately, I’m a lucky man.

With Giovanni Luca– says the director Marco Gambineri– we thought of a simple, poetic video and in line with the words of the song. We wanted to instill in those who listen to the song and watch the video, the memory of what shines, of a love, of a smile, of dreams and of glasses drunk together.

I am happy to have had the opportunity to collaborate with him: a little three minute journey, melancholy but special.

Text

I see you well, it’s better this way;

I remember you well, a photograph:

the portrait of another foreigner

that goes away.

I see you well, it’s better this way;

take what you want, today yes:

I’ll write a little, maybe there’s a pearl

maybe it shines…

And you seem to carry the moon

like a Cartier…

And you don’t look like anyone,

well, good luck to me…

But where are you going and why are you crying?

Are you dreaming of your bouquet?

Now, listen up! What is it?

Who dreams, who falls in love,

and what more do you ask?

But feel how cold it is

But feel how cold it is

But feel how cold it is

in mid-December?

I see you well, that’s right;

I remember you well, you lived right here:

it’s raining, there’s a risk of falling

on something to drink

But where are you going and why are you crying?

Are you dreaming of your bouquet?

Now, listen up! What is it?

Who dreams, who falls in love,

and what more do you ask?

But feel how cold it is

But feel how cold it is

But feel how cold it is

mid-December?
