Paolo Meneguzzi, as we have learn to know him is no more. He takes his real first name Pablo also as his artistic name and starts anew, as the title of his new album Zero suggest. The album is out September 30, 2013 and comes after three years of his previous one, Miami. It includes 12 new songs. In between he has released a compilation album to sum up his story so far, Best of Sei amore. The first single off the album was La vita cos'é and now he has released the title track Zero as the launch single, and it is rather fabulous! Love the piano!
This album comes 12 years after his debut album in Italian, but he started his career already in mid 1990's and released four albums to the Latin American market in Spanish, and has even released an album for the French speaking market. Later on he managed also to release for the North American market. Countless song contests and festivals from Viña del Mar to Sanremo and Eurovision, at the age of 37 it may be a good point to stop and look around. However, he has quite nicely managed to transform from teenage heartdrop to a mature artist over the years not losing his style and fans.
Pablo tells: "Thanks to this pause of three years after 15 years of travels, endless tours and fame I realized life is elsewhere. In family that I have neglected way too long. In love that I have also negletted for years, as I have done with myself. Running after success and fame has given me unforgettable moments I can't deny that, but it has also taken away that piece of me that permitted myself to be really happy and enjoy the simple life."
This blogger's favorite Meneguzzi song remains Musica, in any form; in Spanish or with Nate James in Italo-English. Maybe this new album will include a long time favorite....?
