Text and meaning of IMAGINE A LITTLEthe new unreleased song by Lucio Corsi. The singer-songwriter shared it in recent days on his Instagram profile, accompanying it with the full text, and explained that he is in the full writing phase: “In this period I am writing new songs”.
A signal that arrives after a year lived at a fast pace: second place at the Sanremo Festival 2025 with I wanted to be toughEurovision and a long season of concerts. Courses is already working on new music, and Imagine a little it is the first preview of it.
Lucio Corsi – Imagine a little: the meaning of the song
The song confirms the narrative figure that made it recognisable Lucio Corsi: a story in the form of a twisted fable, populated with marginal characters and surreal images. At the center is Charly, “the king of the chubby”, a protagonist who passes through the song between castles and caravans, prison and slums, in a parable that mixes fairy tale and disenchantment.
References to the imagery of childhood and adventure return: the pirate boat, Wendy, the treasure map. They are the signs of a writing that intertwines tenderness and melancholy, where everyday life is continually transformed into something fairytale-like. The refrain, built on the repetition of the expression “Figure yourself a bit”, functions as a formula that punctuates the story and gives it its title, an interlude that sounds both amazed and resigned.
Charly's parable goes through prison, a funeral (that of his grandmother, greeted with the idea that “death is just a summer storm”), and his rise from the slums. The closing entrusts everything to a suspended image: the pirate boat that appears in the window, the clouds arriving and the ship sinking while Wendy repeats that “it's just a summer storm”. An ending typical of the way Courses he knows how to make even pain fairy-tale and unsettling.
