Laura Pausini chose New York to return to the stage last year, after the long pause caused by the pandemic, as well as to close her current world tour on April 6, because it is a city that represents a challenge for her.
“I am celebrating 30 years of career and I have wanted to do it with all races, religions, ideas. And New York is precisely an example of all this, because it is the city in the world where I sing in front of a very different type of audience. It is the only city in which I sing in five languages, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian and English. It is a challenge and I live for challenges,” says the Italian artist, who says she feels “adopted” by Latinos.
The prominent singer, who last year was named “2023 Person of the Year” by the Latin Recording Academy, is immersed in her “Laura Pausini World Tour 2024”, which after touring Europe and Latin America will arrive in the United States next month.
“I couldn’t wait because I hadn’t sung live for five years and I really needed to get closer to the stage, to the musicians, to the audience, to the lights, to the songs,” he says about the tour. “A person who makes a living from music like me, who started singing in bars and restaurants at the age of eight and who for the rest of my life I plan to continue doing so, and has to stop a little due to the pandemic, experiences restlessness and instability. very strong emotional.”
Remember that the concert he gave to celebrate his 30-year career, at the Apollo Theater on February 26, 2023, It was very short since I had to fly out to give two more in less than 24 hours, one in Madrid and another in Milan. There he could only perform one song from each album of his long career, however for the concert he will have at Madison Square Garden in April, he will have almost three hours.
“It’s a show where I do a lot of things besides singing all the big songs. It is divided into three parts, past, present and future; and I will tell anecdotes, I will show private videos to tell why some songs were born, I will bring people from the audience on stage, I will sing a surprise song, which changes with each show,” he explains in detail about what he has prepared.
walk on the moon
Pausini wanted to be able to meet again with the so-called “Pausinians”, whom she describes as a group of people who do not have a single flag, “because they do not need it to feel united.”
For them he recently released the album “Almas Paralelas”, which he says is dedicated to human beings, but more to their souls than to their bodies. And after the releases of the songs ‘Un Buen Inicio’ and ‘Durar’, Pausini has just released ‘El Primer Paso en la Luna’, a single that, with a dance-pop rhythm, a little different from what we are used to, narrates the breakup of a relationship between friends.
“I was inspired by a friendship with a person that I had for a long time and that suddenly collided, because especially in recent years, accustomed to making decisions very quickly, we do not realize that sometimes a worthwhile relationship takes time. ”, she explains about the song composed by herself together with Virginio Simonelli and Cheope, with music by Virginio and Jason Rooney and produced by Simon Says.
The theme tells how easy it is to separate people just because they do not have the same opinions.
“That’s why I say that it is easier to take the first step on the moon than to find a solution between human beings. It summarizes a little what is happening in the world, that one part wants to conquer another new nation, waging war and killing people, instead of solving and making life win,” he points out.
“It would be much more beautiful to find peace and a common point between those who do not think the same way,” he concludes.
