From 23 June the first EP of the same name by Cliqueamong the talents who took part in the latest edition of Friends of Maria De Filippi.
The EP was written and produced by John Clique (voices and choirs), Francis They peck (keyboards and backing vocals), Christian Bonato (pianos synth and electronics) e Maximilian Crown (guitars and basses). They also collaborated Federico Mecozzi (violin, viola, synths and keyboards) e Tommy Graziani (drums and percussion).
There are six tracks contained in Cliquea project launched by Ratchet snc with distribution ADA Music Italy.
“We decided to call it after my name, CRICCA: it talks about me, it’s inside my life up to now, what I’ve lived. There are my songs, my voice, my frailties and all the love I have received and that I would like to pass on to all those who will listen to the songs contained within it. It is a combination of who I am, cheerful and light-hearted, but also sad and profoundly melancholy”.
The Ep opens with If you look at me like thatsong already winner of Sanremo Area 2021 which has over 2,000,000 streams on Spotify. Clique he talks about it like this: “It’s the most important song in my life to this day. I did pretty much everything with this song. I joined Amici, I left Amici, I returned to Amici. I participated in the Canale 5 New Year’s Eve with this song, and it is a symbol song of the latest edition of Amici22. I think anyone can see in it, it’s a love song, and it’s about that moment when love changes you. Change everything, change the rules, change priorities, change life, turn it upside down”.
Superheroes Rework tells of the difficulty of being together when things are no longer simple, when falling in love passes and you wonder what’s left: “We are used to thinking that wherever there is fatigue, you have to run away, while instead fatigue is the fabric of life, every great story, every great project is tiring, you don’t need to be afraid, you need to look”.
Australia is a song of rebirth that tells the years that Clique lived in that country as a child: “The nostalgia for those places, the sense of freedom I felt when I shook my father’s hand”.
How beautiful you are it’s a love song, cheerful joyful quarrelsome restless it’s a drawing in which everything is inside, but in the end that sympathy remains, that amazement for what she brings into your life.
Saint Lawrence is my first single released by the artist before Friends: “With this song I participated in the DJ on stage and it speaks of hope, the one I try to never lose”.
Don’t call me love speaks of a finished story: “It’s a “descriptive” song, because each line tells something that comes next, it’s not an evocative piece. it’s one of those songs that leaves something inside you, that tries to heal a wound”.
