Sano – Fascistissime: the meaning of the song
Although the title immediately recalls a political dimension, Very fascist it doesn't present itself as an ideological song. The reference remains in the background and is used as a narrative element within a love story built between parody, surrealism and collective imagination.
The protagonists of the song are a couple who live their relationship while fleeing from an authoritarian regime that has never been precisely defined. Political tension thus becomes a framework within which a light and immediate sentimental story develops. Images of conflict, belonging and resistance coexist in the text, but without a univocal or overtly militant reading.
The strength of the song lies precisely in this ambiguity. Healthy And All Phenomena they play with recognizable symbols and suggestions that belong to the collective memory, while leaving the final meaning open. The result is a pop song that alternates lightness and subtext, always keeping the relationship between the two protagonists at the center.
The incipit Now I'll tell you something silly summarizes the mechanism of the piece well: starting from something that seems harmless to introduce a more layered story, without ever ceasing to shift the listener's point of view.
The text of Fascistissime
Now I'll tell you something silly
since you are my girlfriend
let's smoke a cigarette
with thirty-two degrees in the shade
our early youth
it is one step away from the great war
we have to love each other quickly, quickly
before it involves me
late the afternoon sun arrives
what adrenaline
true sun, sun that takes the initiative
this is how it begins
the nostalgia of a missile
of an old habit
the most romantic nights
our Adriatic coasts
the very fascist laws
summer in Ventotene
planes and helicopters
they will find us together
he is a monster to the public
or is it the monstrous audience
little irony leads
to the demagogy of the Luce Institute
I love you but I demand an apology
for the tone and the false accusations
the nostalgia of a misanthrope
which founds P2
You and I will never go to Berlin
at Potsdamer Platz
the nostalgia of a missile
of an old habit
the most romantic nights
our Adriatic coasts
the very fascist laws
summer in Ventotene
planes and helicopters
they will find us together
we polarize
what you become after you become more authoritarian
made the state
it was the summer of the mud machine
and I loved you
nothing strange
they organized Operation Gladio
while I loved you
while I loved you
spring made its first pass
the nostalgia of a missile
of an old habit
the most romantic nights
our Adriatic coasts
the very fascist laws
summer in Ventotene
planes and helicopters
they will find us together
