It happened that the evening of Thursday 26 November, the young director of a Edinburgh theater, Harriet Mould, posted a tweet with a video of an old performance by Adriano Celentano and Raffaella Carrà. For us Italians, over 50, it is a fairly well-known video. It is the ballet that aired in Spring of 1974 in the historic and never equaled Rai Uno Saturday evening program “Milleluci” on the notes of the song “Prisencolinensinainciusol”, the famous nonsense of Molleilato.
The Tweet went viral
Incredible, indeed sensational, the rendering of the tweet. In less than thirty hours he put it together 5 million views, 50,000 retweets and nearly 200,000 likes. The comment accompanying the tweet was amusing and amused. “The Italian singer Adriano Celentano – Mold writes – in the 70’s he released a song with a completely “nonsense” lyrics. He wanted to show that Italians, at that time, would love any song in English “. Especially the ones whose text they didn’t understand and what’s better than a text that doesn’t make any sense? “It was a success – concludes the tweet – and led to this: THE BIGGEST VIDEO I HAVE EVER SEEN ”.

The complete video of the exhibition in Milleluci
And it’s really true. The ballet he sees Adriano Celentano, 36 years old at the time, and Raffaella Carrà, 31 years old at the time and forbidden dream of all Italians, they perform with the entire dance troupe of the transmission conducted by MINA in an epic performance. Very high rhythm, syncopated movements, choreographies of great effect. A masterpiece. And to think that the song in 1974 had already two years of life and had not made great success, overshadowed by the wave of politically committed songwriters, who in that period were experiencing the maximum splendor.

But time is a gentleman is a masterpiece is forever. Finally, an incredible, almost sensational fact should be noted. The thousands of ecstatic comments including those of real VIPs.

Not to mention the author of the masterpiece “American Gods”, Writer Neil Gaiman up to Webstar Usa Casey Neistat. Many of whom were not even born in 1974.
A new tribute to Raffaella Carrà
The incredible success of the tweet dedicated to Celentano and Raffaella Carrà follows the equally incredible tribute, granted to the Romagna artist, by the English newspaper “The Guardian” who defined it “the cultural icon who taught Europe the joys of sex ”. It is really true that in Italy we have artists who envy us all over the world but that we often forgot too quickly at home.
