Portrait of me+you, an original instrumental by Matteo Zaccagnino. 

Love and music are the two most powerful things on earth.
Enjoy love, enjoy music

Portrait of me+you

I first heard this song from the soundtrack of "Le fabuleux destin d'amélie poulain" and I fell in love with it immediately. This is my take on Al Bowlly's version of this fantastic tune. Hope you will enjoy. Happy new year to everyone!

Warm Foothills - Alt-J (acoustic cover)

Some months ago a friend of mine read me the lyrics he had written for a song he wanted me to compose and sing: this is what came out.

LYRICS by Vito Grieco:
A cosa servirebbe raccontarvi di stasera qua
della strada muta e della vita

A cosa servirebbe raccontarvi di questa sigaretta che ho tra le mani
della vita e di tutti voi cani

A cosa servirebbe ridere di una stazione, 
delle mie incapacità e di un treno
che non conta più le ore

A cosa servirebbe restare fermo qui
per mia madre e mio padre forse sì

A cosa servirebbe restare sveglio di notte
se non per il suo profumo e le sue note

A cosa servirebbe vedermi cambiare e non sentirti parlare più
e ascoltare una donna per dovermi
riaddormentare

A cosa servirebbe piangere ancora se il pullman non parte
il legno scolora e lei, la storia, di te
se ne sbatte

A cosa servirebbe imparare un libro a memoria
se non sai fingere e capirne
ogni traiettoria

A cosa servirebbe vivere
se non a vivere

Dipingerti un' aurora
cantare
cantarti ancora

Senza Titolo (A Cosa Servirebbe?)

Unwaited love, an original song by Matteo Zaccagnino

LYRICS
I hold all the answers
to the questions she won't ask
I'll hold them safely in my arms
until it comes my time to be for her

I shot a glance at my tomorrow
and I found nothing strange
A look over the horizon of concrete
that I have built to keep it away


I guess you just got to be
unhappy with what you have
I guess you just got to be
happy with your unwaited love


You cannot lie to yourself it's all 
written in the dreams you had about her
You cannot keep an eagle in your ribcage
knowing that would waste its wings


I guess you just got to be
unhappy with what you have
I guess you just got to be
happy with your unwaited love


I remember when I had to choose
the first time it wasn't easy 
but I got used
I never thought it would be easy
never thought it would be fun 
to test my luck

Everyday I live that day
why should I find it hard
to do the same?
Maybe I'll find it hard 'cause
our heads and hearts have 
grown so apart


I guess you just got to be
unhappy with what you have
I guess you just got to be
happy with your unwaited love

Unwaited Love

LYRICS
Primi giorni dell'anno
il freddo è routine
così indosso il maglione più caldo che ho

Ed è un po' sfilacciato
chè s'era impigliato
al ricordo più bello che c'è in me

Così risfoglio le pagine gonfie
di solitudine
m'immagino ritratti di te

Tutti i dettagli importanti 
quelli soltanto nostri
sono più di tutti quelli che so memorizzare


Ah, quante volte avrei
sottratto il tempo a chi lo porta via
Sai quante volte avrei
con me ora che sono via

Che poi se è vero che si nasce
con il fine di restare allora
il senso della morte qual è?
Perchè rincorrere dei vermi che dimorano il subconscio
e ci divoran dall'interno mentre cerco
di trovare un equilibrio sul piano inclinato dei miei desideri

Scivolo giù


Ah, quante volte avrei
sottratto il tempo a chi lo porta via
Sai quante volte avrei
con me ora che sono via

Ritratti Di Te

Matteo Zaccagnino is a multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter based in Italy. He started his musical journey as a beatmaker, then slowly turned to the drums; later he switched to bass and played in local ethnic-folk bands. In the meanwhile, he practiced his guitar and singing skills influenced by artists such as Jeff Buckley, Joni Mitchell and Alt-j. As natural as it could be, original music started to flow out of this filled-to-the-brim melting pot, resulting in his 12-track album Motel Room, out in 2019.
