A guy doing HAND GESTURES WHILE playing the piano,
A guy playing the SAXOPHONE AND CLARINET at the same time,
Some guy playing the OCARINA OF TIME ,
A mean ukulele player,
A drummer STRUMMING CHEWING GUM ,
AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST , bass.
To all Americans who think this song is about a person from the US: it's not. It's about an Italian guy who wants to imitate Americans in fashion and lifestyle, but doesn't quite get it and makes himself ridiculous in the process. In other words, this song is about a poser. Which means there were already posers way back in the 1950s!
The Italians are freaking awesome. Many of us in the U.S. are thinking of you. Stay strong.
When this insanity is over, we'll bring the whiskey & soda, and can you supply the rock n roll.
If Renato Carosone was still alive, he would’ve been exactly 100 years old today! He was born on 3 January 1920 and it is 3 January 2020 today! Happy Birthday Renato!
